----------
It was named Red Wolf because of its red body and because it was female.
Red Wolf was originally an upgraded ordinary wolfhound in the Giant Tree Forest. When Ishigami Hara found her, she had been driven out by the tribe and was struggling to survive in the forest. At that time, Red Wolf was only more than two meters long and was still in her juvenile stage.
After being raised and cultivated by Ishigami Hara, she was released into the forest when she reached ten meters in length and gradually grew into the overlord of this area.
You should know that other wolves in the Red Wolf tribe are only less than ten meters long when they mature, which is already a very special species in the Giant Tree Forest.
The upgraded Red Wolf is just a mutation in her fur color, and there is no difference from her normal counterparts.
But under Ishigami Hara's cultivation, she has undergone earth-shaking changes, and she has not yet reached maturity.
According to Ishigami Hara's estimation, Red Wolf's final size should be able to reach 40 to 50 meters in length, and her shoulder height will be more than 20 meters, which can be compared with the strongest Summoning beasts in the ninja world.
Like Bean, Red Wolf also possesses Chakra, and the amount of Chakra in her body will increase as she grows. Ishigami Hara cannot confirm the total amount for the time being, but there is no problem in benchmarking the Summoning beasts.
Red Wolf was very excited. After being touched on the nose by Ishigami Hara, she jumped around, and the ground shook with every hit. The leaves on the surrounding giant trees fell down, and those leaves were half the size of a person.
"Come, eat this."
Ishigami Hara took out a sealed scroll and unsealed the sealed object, which turned out to be a huge water tank, and in the water tank was a brown ball with a diameter of more than one meter.
This is a pill specially prepared by Ishigami Hara for Red Wolf. Its main function is to stimulate Red Wolf's own cells so that she can extract Chakra faster.
Red Wolf is very obedient. She runs over and lowers her head. With just a roll of her tongue, the huge medicine ball with a diameter of more than one meter enters her mouth. She chews it a few times and swallows it. Then she licks her lips with satisfaction and hums a few times at Ishigami Hara.
"Use Chakra to transform the transverse bone of the throat as soon as possible. As a top-level Summoning beast, it is not good not to be able to speak," Ishigami Hara said.
Red Wolf nodded, obviously understanding what Ishigami Hara said.
Chakra is a very magical energy.
After an animal has Chakra, its intelligence is significantly improved.
And if Chakra is continuously extracted, the degree of intelligence improvement will be further increased.
After all, Chakra is the energy generated by the combination of body and spirit, and the spirit is naturally related to intelligence.
According to Ishigami Hara's estimation, Red Wolf now has at least the average intelligence of a 15- or 16-year-old teenager. In other words, her intelligence is no less than that of normal humans.
"I allow you to hunt normally in the Giant Tree Forest. When I go back, I will Summon you to Konoha, and then you will stay in the Forest of Death."
"Awooo."
Red Wolf responded, and then lay down in front of Ishigami Hara, shaking her head, signaling Ishigami Hara to come up.
Seeing this, Ishigami Hara did not refuse, smiled slightly, and reached his hand out.
"Aohou!"
Red Wolf roared, got up suddenly, spread her four paws, and ran in the forest of giant trees. She was very fast and flexible, easily bypassing the giant trees and running freely.
Feeling the strong wind in his face, Ishigami Hara smiled and did not urge her, letting this giant gallop in the forest.
About a quarter of an hour later, Red Wolf climbed a hill, raised her head, and roared, shaking the whole field.
Ishigami Hara got down from her head, patted Red Wolf's front paws, and smiled: "Stay here at ease, it won't be long before I will summon you away."
"Awoo."
Red Wolf nodded, looked at Ishigami Hara reluctantly, and then jumped down from the hill. The fall from a height of more than 100 meters caused cracks on the ground, but Red Wolf was fine, and ran away with a rumble.
The reply from the village came later than expected, and Ishigami Hara waited until the next day for Bean to return, bringing the latest order from the village leaders.
Seeing the transfer order on the scroll, Ishigami Hara just chuckled.
"Go and notify Nawaki to come over, and arrange for the wounded and half of the staff to return to the village."
Yes, the village leaders decided to let Ishigami Hara go back, which was not a mandatory requirement of the village; it was his own idea.
The war here has almost been completed, and the remaining things are not a big deal. Even the harassment of Kumogakure shinobi will not have much effect at all, but can provide some combat experience for the shinobi of Konoha.
Ishigami Hara's intention was to replace some people from the village to form a rotation, take on the sneak attacks from Kumogakure shinobi, and complete a training exercise.
The village leaders agreed with Ishigami Hara's idea, and also agreed with his plan of going back, but they left Nawaki on the front line.
As for why?
It's obvious that it's to train Nawaki and let him gain some fame on the battlefield.
In the past few months, not only Ishigami Hara has improved, but Nawaki has also improved greatly. Now, his Wood Release has a bit of the First Hokage's mastery. Although there is still a big difference, it also has some shadow of it.
When Nawaki arrived, he had lost his initial immaturity. He looked resolute and his face was very calm.
"The village's transfer order has come, and I have to go back to the village. Now you are the squad leader here and will lead two teams. You have to be more careful here in the future," Ishigami Hara said.
Nawaki took the transfer order and glanced at it, then nodded: "Is that so? I understand. Are you going back this time... to confront the top leaders?"
Ishigami Hara thought about it and nodded: "Originally planned to do it later, but Shimura Danzō has recently returned. Although I don't know what method that guy used to persuade the Hokage, that guy will not be content, and I don't want him to live too long."
"That..."
Nawaki's mouth twitched and smiled: "Is it necessary?"
Ishigami Hara raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Are you so magnanimous?"
What he said was naturally referring to the attack on Nawaki when he first entered the battlefield. Even if there was no evidence, the two knew it well and knew that Shimura Danzō was behind it.
As if seeing Nawaki's thoughts, Ishigami Hara said again: "I didn't say I would attack him directly. After all, I am a member of the village, and some things still need to be done in a proper way."
"Okay."
Nawaki also knew that Ishigami Hara's decision would not change, so he could only accept it.
"Don't make too much noise," Nawaki reminded him at the end.
"Don't worry."
