026sThe garrison troops in the southeast battlefield of Konoha were completely wiped out.

Only one in ten of the 5,000 ninja troops survived.

Every day, you can hear wailing sounds in the Konoha hospital.

The southeast front can be said to be in danger at this moment, but even at this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen still insisted on his own opinion and pressed all the main forces and troops to the battlefield of Rain Country.

As long as the Rain Country was occupied, the idea of Iwagakure and Sand Village joining forces to attack Konoha together would be strangled.

Therefore, at this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only make a choice, but Kirigakure's actions were too fast!

"You are here."

Hiruzen looked at Shen Qiu and nodded. Now his generals have basically gone to the front battlefield. Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya are preparing for war in Rain Country.

Hatake Sakumo was sent to the border of River Country. If Sunagakure finds that the plan to join forces with Iwagakure in Rain Country has been thwarted, then it is very likely that they will take the path of River Country. The patriarchs of the big families such as Akimichi Torikaze, Hinata Hitoshi, Ino-Shikacho, etc. also went to the battlefield without exception. Among those who died in the war against Kirigakure was Aburame Shigin.

The names of the sacrificed people will all be engraved on the memorial stone created by the second generation Hokage, Senju Tobirama.

"I have a task for you. I believe you know what happened on the battlefield in the southeastern front."

In just a few months, Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to have aged several years, and even his voice was not as vigorous and sharp as before.

This was the biggest crisis he had faced since he took office.

He had ignited the powder keg of the ninja world.

If he could not lead Konoha to the final victory, what awaited him was not only the accusations from the daimyo, but also the huge pressure from within the ninja village.

If they won, everyone would be happy.

The death of their loved ones and the cruelty of the war would be selectively forgotten.

If they failed, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had personally started the Ninja World War, would become the target of public criticism as the Hokage.

People would blame him for the failure of the war and the death of his loved ones. By then, what awaited him might not be just a simple resignation, but could be even worse.

"I know that the 5,000 Konoha garrison troops were wiped out in the southeast battlefield. The battlefield commander, Aburame Shigin, died at the hands of the Xiguashan Pufferfish Demon of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. Although the deputy commander, Hinata Kiyomi, managed to escape, he committed suicide in his residence three days ago."

Shen Qiu's tone was very calm. Konoha suffered a defeat at the beginning of the war. In fact, this matter cannot be simply blamed on Aburame Shigin or Hinata Kiyomi. There may be problems with their command, but it is definitely not the main problem. The most important problem is actually Sarutobi Hijiri. Five thousand ninjas, doesn't it sound like a lot?

But nine-tenths of these five thousand ninjas are Chuunin. There are very few ninjas. You must know that there is a huge gap between Jonin and Chunin. One Jonin can at least deal with five Chunin.

Many Chunin can't even endure the level of a ninja in their entire lives. No, although the Chunin are known as the"backbone" of the village, in fact the truly important fighting force is the Jonin.

The border defense force on the southeastern front of Konoha is not even a detachment. There is a lack of Jonin, sensory ninjas, and medical ninjas in the team, and the resources are like those of a stepmother.

All resources are given priority to the Hidden Rain Battlefield on the northwest front, where not only are there three of Sarutobi Hiruzen's disciples, but also Ino-Shika-cho and an army of 30,000 ninjas. Sarutobi Hiruzen's own son Asuma is even on the front line there.

"The situation on the southeastern front has deteriorated sharply. According to this situation, the vanguard of Kirigakure has probably reached Asami Gorge. Once they pass through Asami Gorge, Konoha will have no defenses."

Asami Gorge is the last line of defense of Konoha, with about 2,000 Chunins stationed there. At the same time, Shen Qiu's old acquaintances Kato Dan and Shiranui Xuanfeng are also serving as commanders on that line of defense.

"You know this and still mess around like this?......."

Shen Qiu complained silently in his heart. If Konoha had not produced so many talented people in the Second Ninja World War, Shen Qiu would have really thought that this war might have been lost.

But in fact, he was also responsible for the current situation. In the original history, after Kirigakure annexed the Whirlpool Country, it was actually satisfied and had no intention of participating in the Ninja World War.

It was just a small number of military observers sent to the battlefield to observe the trend of the war. However, the current situation is very different. Because Shen Qiu killed Kizuna Chiba and refused to return the ninja sword, Sarutobi Hiruzen directly went to war with Kirigakure.

The consensus of the ninja world is that fighting Kirigakure is definitely a thankless task. The Land of Water is an isolated island in the sea. It takes two or three days to go to the battle by boat.

When we arrived, we faced an energetic and fully armed army. This is not going to fight, but to die.

Even if we beat Kirigakure on land, we can run away if we can't beat them! Can't I run away if I can't beat you?

Similarly, it is also extremely difficult for Kirigakure to control the land on the mainland, so the Bear Country is Konoha's puppet country instead of Kirigakure's, but for Kirigakure - it doesn't matter.

Anyway, even if I can't occupy it, I can still plunder all the things, materials, and money. For them, it's a matter of only making money.

"According to the news from the front line, Kirigakure has dispatched a powerful force this time, not only a 10,000-man ninja army, but also powerful ninjas like the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, as well as blood-stained families like Mizunotsuki, Kaguya,"

"If nothing unexpected happens, there should be another Kage-level warrior."

After listening to Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, Shen Qiu felt the corners of his mouth twitch slightly. They used the strength of the entire village to attack Konoha, and you sent a small division to fight? No wonder the whole army was wiped out. In fact, Sarutobi Hiruzen is also very upset now. The image of the third generation Mizukage Mizunotsuki Sora in the outside world has always been elegant and easy-going. This time it seems that he has really been irritated.

After all, he is the apprentice and bodyguard of the second generation Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu. As a descendant of the second generation Mizukage, Hozuki Chiren is naturally cared for by him everywhere. The Hozuki family and the Mizunotsuki family are also families that prosper together.

Originally, he just wanted to get the ninja sword back and give an explanation to the Hozuki family. Sarutobi Hiruzen did this and made everyone lose face, so he just broke the jar and gave up.
