Although there were some differences in the conversation with Hagi Sakushige along the way, under the premise of 'seeking common ground while reserving differences', the friendship between Hagi Sakumo and Uchiha Tokumitsu has grown.

Therefore, when Hachiki Sakumo proposed to visit and study the Northwest Frontier Defense Force, Uchiha Tokumitsu readily agreed, and sent Uchiha Kensuke to lead his subordinates to speed up the return to the camp and inform the garrison to get ready.

After entering the territory of the Grass Country, Hagi Shomo slowed down and paid attention to the villages, towns, mountains, and lakes of the Grass Country that he passed along the way. Although the settlements were particularly depressed compared to the Land of Fire, it was clear that the inhabitants had lost the precarious sense of precariousness on their faces, and the market was much more prosperous than before. And in the deep mountains and old forests, there are no longer bandits and robbers' dens.

"Tokumitsu-kun, it is said that the Kushinobi Village would cooperate with bandits and robbers to attack towns and merchants before, is there still such a situation?"

"I remember that there was indeed before, but since the Fire Gate Commander led his troops to sweep the territory of the Grass Country under the command of the Daimyo of the Grass Country, basically all the underground organizations have been cleared; The original large number of ninja teams and spies were basically wiped out; And the grass ninja who cooperated with the robbers was also killed by one of them; So, although the current country of grass is still poor, it is at least relatively stable among the small countries. ”

"The grass forbearance who strangled the fornication robbers...... Isn't the Grass Ninja Village against it? "There's something strange about Sakushige.

"Shuomao Shangnin, Cao Ninja are very familiar with each other, and they are very realistic." Uchiha Tokumitsu smiled confidently, "The resident camp issued a total bounty that is twice the income of the entire Kusa Ninja Village by issuing a mission to the Kusa Ninja Village, what else can the Kusa Shinobi use to resist me?" ”

"All, basically, we don't have to do it, the grass ninja will arrest the ninja from their village who committed the crime and receive the reward."

Sakumo Hagi also thinks it's amazing.

"Originally, I thought it was incredible when you said it, but when I think about it, it's grass forbearance after all, so that's normal." Qimu Shuomao said matter-of-factly.

"Spending money is also an art, using money to let the grass forbearance clean up itself, and use profit as an inducement to make its internal discord, divide and control, so as to disintegrate the authority of its leader, and then, a plate of loose grass forbearance is a fat sheep to be handled." Uchiha Tokumitsu is still quite confident in this.

"But...... What is the use of a plate of loose grass forbearance? Qimu Shuomao was a little confused, "It can't play the role of assisting in the defense of Iwakuin, right?" ”

“…… Rely on grass ninja to defend against rock hide? The Grass Country garrison camp is really dangerous! Uchiha Tokumitsu laughed, "Besides, wouldn't it be better to assign a plate of loose grass ninja directly to the command of the Konoha ninja than to form an army on his own?" At least we can fight with the wind. ”

"That's ...... to say."

As the two walked, they said that they were getting closer and closer to the battalion of the Northwest Frontier Defense Force.

"Deguang Shaojun, the front has been picked up by the patrol!"

A ninja marching forward reported back.

"Okay, give the order to let the patrol continue its mission and not have to wait here." After Uchiha Tokumitsu instructed the ninja to carry it out, he then said to Hagi Sao Shige: "Sao Shimo, the camp is not far ahead, let's go directly to the camp." ”

Naturally, Sakumo has no opinion.

It's still a good feeling to be back in the camp at the station.

For the arrival of Hachiki Shuomao, the whole camp was very enthusiastic, and the ninjas who had no tasks basically came to meet the idols, shake hands, and then engage in autographs.

The eight accompanying ninjas of Sakushige Hagi entered the camp unobtrusively under the cover of the Uchiha ninjas.

Uchiha Tokumitsu beckoned Hagi Sao Shigeru to the middle tent to rest, and Uchiha Fire Gate arranged a round of special food from the country of grass, and also summoned the camp to work hard to shinobi to wash the dust for Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hagi Saki Saki.

When the feast was gone, everyone took their leave. Uchiha Tokumitsu said to Hachiki Sakushige, "Sakumo Shangshinobi, if there is anything you need my help with in your mission, just tell me directly." ”

"Deguangjun is really keen." Hagi Shuomao said with some difficulty: "It's true that there is something that needs help, but I don't know if it will cause you trouble......

Uchiha Tokumitsu didn't speak, just stared at him with a smile.

"Okay......" Hachiki Sakumo smiled helplessly, took out a scroll from his bosom, handed it to Uchiha Tokumitsu, and motioned for him to flip through the contents on his own.

This is a mission document issued by the Hokage, and the request is to infiltrate the country of Taki to investigate the information of Iwakushi and Yunyin, who have recently been in contact with and meeting in its territory, and give the mission recipient, that is, Hachiki Sakumo, the power to mobilize the ninja forces stationed in various places to cooperate.

Uchiha Tokumitsu fell into deep thought.

Judging from the paperwork, it is a simple intelligence mission, and the eight ninjas accompanying Hagi Shuo this time are veterans who are good at stealth operations, if it is only intelligence detection, it is theoretically enough.

"Shinobu Shuomao, the real situation of the mission, can you explain a little bit?" Uchiha Tokumitsu touched his chin and asked with some hesitation.

"According to the intelligence of the dark department, Iwakuin and Yunyin, who have been hostile for a long time, have a secret meeting somewhere in Takino Country, and the participants are all high-level leaders of the two villages, and the village is worried that they are discussing some conspiracy, so they ask for a clear investigation......" Hachiki Sakumo was also a little helpless.

Where did an intelligence mission, involving two large ninja villages, or in the territory of another country, and the exact location is not clear......

Uchiha Tokumitsu is also a little strange.

"Anyway...... The village and the Taki Shinobi village should be allies, right? ”

"That's what the words say...... But Takishinobu has always been closed off from the country, rarely in contact with the outside world, and it will be difficult to communicate with the outside world for a while, and this matter is more anxious...... "Qimu Shuomao is also a little helpless.

"And there's no way to determine where Shinobu stands in this matter, right?" Uchiha Tokumitsu shook his head with a smile.

"Yes......" Hachiki Sakumo sighed.

"And how do you need me to cooperate?"

"If you can, please send a ninja army to secretly transfer to the border of Takino Country to hide, and if necessary, send a message to the target location to assist in besieging and killing the meeting personnel of the two ninja villages."

In this way, it makes sense to transfer people from the Northwest Frontier Defense Force, and the country of grass happens to border the country of Taki.

"How many people do you expect to need?" Uchiha Tokumitsu asked, he had already made a decision in his heart.

"There are about 100 people, among them, the more upper forbearance, the better, and the lower forbearance is not needed, and it is useless." Qimu Shuomao's eyes lit up.

"That'...... Thirty upper ninjas, how about sixty middle ninjas? Uchiha Tokumitsu roughly estimated the personnel of the camp and gave a luxurious personnel lineup, "This is exactly thirty upper ninja squads, and they are all long-term cooperative operations, which should be able to meet your requirements." ”

"That couldn't be better." When Qimu Shuomao heard this, he nodded again and again to express his satisfaction.

"What about time?"

"According to the intelligence of the dark department, Iwain and Yunyin will meet again in about three days, and this time there may be other higher-level personnel contact, and then I will lead people to lurk and track down to determine the meeting place, and try to eavesdrop on the information." Sakushige Hachiki took out a map from his bosom and explained the assignment to Tokumitsu Uchiha.

"Then how will we communicate with each other to determine the command signal?" Uchiha Tokumitsu asked, "Especially if the meeting place is far away from the border of Kusanokuni, it will be difficult to hide your whereabouts all the way......"

"I have a pair of twin brothers under my subordinates, they have a family telepathy secret technique, and the two of them can achieve ultra-long-distance sensing and positioning, and I will leave one of you to support the ninja army, who will be responsible for leading the way at that time......"

There is also this secret technique, and Uchiha Tokumitsu is interested.

"Also, as an extra means of insurance...... "Hachiki Sakumo Jiki summoned a black ninja dog in the shape of a bulldog, "This is Pasha, one of my contract ninja dogs, through which you can transmit messages to me......"

After Hachiki Shuomao lowered his head and whispered to the ninja dog for a moment, the ninja dog nodded again and again, and opened his mouth to speak: "Lord Shuomao, I understand, please rest assured, Lord Tokumitsu, I will do my best to ensure that the task is completed." ”

Uchiha Tokumitsu was also a little surprised, this was also the second time he saw a psychic beast that could talk, the last time it was the ninja cat named 'Hanamaki' by Uchiha Huomon, but he didn't expect Hachiki Shuomao to have such a humane psychic beast.

"Then I'm basically fine." Uchiha Tokumitsu retracted his gaze and controlled the urge to pet the dog, "But when do you plan to set off?" ”

"I'm going to set off directly tonight, and I'll leave a shadow clone in the camp at that time, so please take the shadow clone around the camp a few more times tomorrow, and then the shadow clone will head south in the direction of the Land of Rain to create the illusion of another destination."

Uchiha Tokumitsu nodded slightly, this arrangement is also rigorous at the moment, and he can't say anything wrong.

"Then I'll lead my troops to the border of Takino Country tomorrow night." Uchiha Tokuko thought for a moment and gave a time, "After all, there are a lot of people in the thirty squads, and it is really difficult to hide their whereabouts if they move quickly, and tomorrow night time is the most suitable." ”

"Then please ask Deguangjun!"

"Shuo Mao Shangnin is polite! I'm looking forward to playing alongside you, too! Uchiha Tokumitsu smiled widely.

"You're going to lead the ninja army into battle yourself?" Qimu Shuomao reacted at this time, and couldn't help but be shocked when he heard the words.

"Yes, I also want to meet the elites of Yunyin and Iwain." Uchiha Tokumitsu was a little eager to try.

"This ......," Hachiki Shuo Shigeru hesitated, "wouldn't this be too risky?" It's not a big deal, after all, you still have to be in charge of the command of the garrison battalion. ”

"It's okay, there's Uncle Huomen here." Uchiha Tokumitsu waved his hand, "Besides, the ones I chose are all elites of the Uchiha radical faction, and it may not be possible to command it if someone else is replaced, and it will not be good to delay the fighter at that time." ”

"That's also ......" Sakumo Hachiki thinks about it and feels reasonable, so many Uchiha ninjas, except for Uchiha Tokumitsu, a special person who has the identity of the heir of the faction, can really be managed by others.

"Don't worry, Sakumo Kaminobi." Uchiha Tokumitsu was full of confidence, "With you and me, there are a total of thirty-two shinobi, and there must not be many people in the other party's meeting, so whether it is the number of ninjas or the quality of ninjas, it is an advantage for me, unless Onoki or Thunder Shadow comes in person, otherwise he will have no return!" ”
