Konoha 43/11/11.

This land, which has been quiet for only a few years, is now once again in flames of war.

It has been 10 days since the outbreak of the war, during which dozens of clashes have taken place between Konoha and Sunagakure, large and small, and the number of casualties has continued to rise.

In the Second Shinobi War, Shimizu joined the regular ninja unit as a new ninja and participated in various frontal battles against the enemy.

At that time, because he still had the glorious halo of "genius" on his head, the village itself took care of it; In addition, the teacher who leads the team is Maruki Kosuke, who has the strength of elite shinobi, and the safety can be said to be guaranteed to a considerable extent.

You must know that in general, the powerless, and unvalued Shinobi is easily assigned to the cannon fodder team used to test the enemy's situation or lure the enemy in the ninja war.

This kind of team is often composed of 3 lower ninjas and 1 middle ninja.,The strength is relatively weak.,Once you're alone and found by the enemy's upper ninja.,It's easy to wipe out.。

Only by surviving to the end and standing out in this environment can you have a chance to enter the elite team led by the upper ninja.

Of course, it doesn't mean that everything will be fine with the protection of the upper ninja......

Shangninja is a high-end force in the ninja war, and it is often given extremely important tasks, and the casualty rate is not much lower than that of the cannon fodder team......

War, whether it is for the fledgling rookie Shinobi or the powerful Shinobi, is fair.

Because sometimes, it only takes an accident for death to come.

Now Qing Shui is a member of the Shadow Ministry, and the main responsibility of the Shadow Ministry during the war is the reconnaissance and transmission of intelligence.

Of course, there will be battles, but they will not be directly involved in large-scale battles such as storms or positional battles.

The positioning of the dark department is more similar to the special forces he knew in his previous life, and in wartime, he will undertake to go deep behind enemy lines, spy on intelligence, rescue hostages, assassinate targets, etc., or form an elite detachment to raid a small group of enemies, a series of tasks that cannot be completed by a large-scale ninja army.

Qing Shui and the 7th Brigade of the 2nd Dark Army led by him were assigned to the southwestern border of the Fire Country, carrying out border intelligence reconnaissance and transmission, as well as preventing and intercepting the Sand Hidden Intelligence Force.

During the war, a lot of accurate and detailed information was obtained and transmitted by these secret spies.

The area that Shimizu is responsible for is located in the area bordering the land of fire and the country of rivers, where mountains and forests overlap and intersect, and the terrain is complex.

There weren't any major supply camps nearby, and the nearest military fortress, Fallen Leaf City, was also in the hinterland of the Fire Realm, half a day's way away.

It can be said that the location where Qingshui is now is the forefront of the southwest region.

The village has indeed been entrusted with a heavy task......

So after studying the terrain here, Qing Shui and the leader of the 1st squad decided to arrange 3 squads to remain on duty for 12 hours, and the other 3 squads would be rotated after 12 hours.

This ensures 24 hours of uninterrupted patrols, this vacuum no man's land.

The last 3 squads are recuperated to ensure maximum combat effectiveness in case of accidents and battles that may occur at any time. In order to be able to support each other in the shortest possible time, the separation of the 9 squads is not far apart.

Not long ago, a group of about 5 squads of sand hidden ninjas, a total of more than 20 people, actually infiltrated the territory of the Fire Country and raided the 1 dark team arranged here by Qing Shui.

After sending out the signal for help, Qing Shui quickly took 2 dark teams to the rescue, and cooperated with the other two dark teams deployed in the nearby area to launch a counterattack against Shayin.

After leaving a few corpses behind, the sand ninja finally had no choice but to retreat.

Now Qing Shui is leading the members of the 5 squads of the Seventh Brigade to clean up this battlefield.

"How's it going?" Shimizu asked.

At this time, he was standing on a large tree, observing and guarding the battlefield, trying to get more information.

"We lost three people and seven wounded, two of them seriously. 5 people died, and the number of injured should be more than 10. The leader of the group replied that his code name was "Tianhe", a 30-year-old Konoha Shinobu who had been in the shadows for more than ten years and was an old senior.

Shimizu guessed that Hokage-sama meant to let Tianhe's assistant help him and make him adapt to the position of Captain of the Dark Force as soon as possible.

In fact, there is nothing unusual in the casualty data alone, but it is obvious that the problem is found in combination with the facts: as the party that was raided, the number of casualties is actually less than that of Shayin......

"The Shangnin who led the team just now is very strong...... It's hard for me to win. Tianhe said, "Thankfully, Captain, you came just in time. ”

In the battle just now, the opponent's leader Kamishinobi and Tianhe, who arrived first, fought together, and several other Shagakure shinobi were entangled with the captains of Shimizu's other groups.

The high-end combat power can be said to be quite strong.

But among the five corpses of Shayin, two of them are teenagers about 12 years old, which is clearly a new shinobi.

Tenri stepped forward to carefully examine the bodies of the two Shinobu Shagakure, his head bowed, as if thinking about something.

"Teacher Shangnin took the students out of the Shinobi to practice?" Shimizu guessed.

In the battle just now, Qing Shui also observed that there were still a considerable number of shinobi mixed in the team of the sand hide.

The overall strength of the other party is not weak, but this combination of high and low naturally reminds Qing Shui of the scene where Konoha Shangnin takes the new Shinobi out to fight monsters and upgrade......

"What did you find?"

"No ...... for now," Tianhe shook his head slowly.

Carefully recalling the battle just now, the other party is indeed a mixed team with 12 lower ninjas, but the number of upper ninjas is not small, there are a full 6.

This is also the fundamental reason why Tianhe, a group of Konoha elites, could not win in the dark at the beginning.

However, after Qing Shui joined the battlefield, he relied on his elusive instantaneous technique to take the lives of 2 Sand Hidden Ninjas in the blink of an eye, and also seriously injured one of the opponent's upper ninjas, completely turning the tide of the battle.

In the end, Sha Yin chose to retreat.

Because Sha Yin's surprise attack revealed a trace of weirdness, Qing Shui did not rashly order the pursuit.

"If it's just to test our defenses, you don't need to send so many people...... Nor does this kind of team look like a secret department for spying on intelligence. Shimizu concluded.

The two of them glanced at each other, and both saw the problem.

The Sand Hidden Army, which had just retreated, was more like a small force that had broken away from the regular ninja legion.

It's just that what's the point of letting such troops test Konoha's borders?

Wouldn't it be more effective to send small elite units to harass, sabotage, or even assassinate behind enemy lines?

Could it be that it is really to train the next generation?

Although this was Shimizu's first victory in the Third Shinobi War, he didn't feel any joy at all.

If something is abnormal, there must be a demon.

"Raise your guard for Squad 3. A cordon is placed around the perimeter. ”

The 3rd squad of the Seventh Brigade has the strongest blood inheritance limit in Konoha - White Eyes.

Soon, the battlefield was cleaned up. The corpses of the dead companions will be taken away, and the corpses of the sand will also be dragged away, and maybe the medical ninjas of Konoha or the intelligence experts of the Second Legion of the Shadows will be able to see what they can do.
