A fighter from Hyuga

Just when Shuji and Utatane Koharu were doing their best on the Kumogakure side to get Kumogakure to agree to the alliance.

Konoha, far away on the battlefield, only did one thing.

That is... while the Sand Village begins to retreat in batches in an orderly manner, mobilize all the forces that can be mobilized and plunder every truck of Sand Village's supplies as much as possible.

As for now, with the continuous retreat of Sunagakure, Konoha's warehouses are once again full.

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was sitting in Danzo's office, looking at the mission report scrolls in his hands that reported his gains, drinking tea and smoking happily.

right now……

The only thing left is for Kumogakure to agree to form an alliance with Konoha.

"Dong dong dong."

And at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the office door. Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately put away the smile on his face and looked up.

Just then I saw Hinata Shuji walking in with Utane Koharu.

"Did Kumogakure agree?"

Without waiting for Shuji and Koharu to say anything, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked Shuji directly.

For Sarutobi Hiruzen, there is no issue more concerning than this.

"I spent so much effort to play an exchange match with the young master of Yunyin. Why does he disagree?"

Upon hearing this, Shusi shrugged helplessly, pulled two chairs over, and sat in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face suddenly showed an uncontrollable joy.

If Kumogakure agreed, then Konoha would basically not encounter any difficulties when ending this war.

"how much did you spend?"

After saying this, Sarutobi Hiruzen turned and looked at Utane Koharu.

"1.2 billion taels."

"Twelve hundred million taels..."

Hearing this, the smile on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face slowly disappeared.

During this period of time, the total amount of materials accumulated through continuous looting of Sand Village was less than 500 million taels...

But no matter what, giving only 1.2 billion taels to the Yunyin family is better than giving 1 billion taels to each of the three families.

War...

"Shuji, take Koharu and I back to Konoha."

Standing up, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Shuji.

It has been a long time since they were out, and Sarutobi Hiruzen now needs to return to the village.

"Good~"

As he pursed his lips and nodded, Shuji put his hands on the shoulders of Utane Koharu and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The next moment, the three of them appeared in the office of the Konoha Hokage from the office of the Konoha camp.

"When we return to the battlefield, talk to Danzo and ask the troops surrounding Yugakure to open a gap for Yugakure so that their reconnaissance ninjas can see the retreat of Sunagakure."

In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Shuji.

“If Yuyin still chooses to continue the war after learning this news, then we will defeat them and pay them.

If they choose to negotiate, the one-time compensation amount cannot be less than 1.5 billion, and the installment compensation amount cannot be less than 2 billion."

"understood."

Xiu Si nodded when he heard this. The wool comes from the sheep... How cunning are you?

but……

If nothing unexpected happens, this war will probably be over soon.

I don’t know if Jiraiya can meet Nagato again this time.

Or I could just use the Flying Thunder God Technique to bring them back to Konoha.

Make it a little more difficult for Black Zetsu to save his mother.

"Finally, since you have already duelled in Kumogakure, try not to perform combat missions on the battlefield."

After finishing speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen continued to speak to Shuuji.

"Oh, then how about I tell Lord Danzo your order and then go directly to the Wet Bone Forest to practice."

Upon hearing this, Shusi curled his lips and said to Sarutobi Hiruzen in front of him.

Now the battlefield in Rain Country can be said to be left with only the decisive battle.

If you don't go to carry out combat missions, then what's the point of going to the battlefield?

Are you going to deliver the documents?

"That won't work, not yet."

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately expressed his clear refusal.

However, it seems to be true. On the current battlefield, if Xiu Si does not perform combat missions, then there is really little point in going to the battlefield.

"How about this, you go find Sakumo and ask him to arrange for you to join the Anbu."

After thinking for a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Shuji.

Once he enters the Anbu, Shusi's information will be kept completely confidential. Moreover, even if Shusi is performing combat missions on the battlefield, his identity will basically not be discovered.

"Anbu?"

Shusi was stunned when he heard this, and then he understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's thoughts.

"Then I have to be the captain."

Shusi nodded, crossed his arms, and turned to look at the huge floor-to-ceiling window in the Hokage's office.

Hearing this, Utane Koharu frowned and looked at Hinata Shuji with some displeasure.

Since the establishment of the Anbu, there has never been anyone who became a captain right after joining.

"Okay, do you have a favorite team member?"

However, a slight smile appeared on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face.

"Just Nawaki and Mikoto."

Upon hearing this, Shuji casually said to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Hearing Shuji's words, Utane Koharu frowned even deeper.

Let Uchiha enter the Anbu?

Silently, Utane Koharu looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Okay~ There's still one spot left. Do you have a favorite candidate?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen ignored what Utatane Koharu said and continued to ask Shuji.

"It's not okay to split up the family."

After he finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen directly gave the conditions.

"Then you decide on the arrangements."

Xiu Si nodded when he heard this, but did not choose to start a discussion based on this issue.

It is reasonable that the Hyuga branch cannot enter the Anbu.

Otherwise, everything in the Anbu would be open to Hinata.

As for the Japanese...

Since the branch family cannot enter the Anbu, Hiashi can only continue to take care of the two branch families.

"Okay, the three of you should form a team first. I'll tell you when I find the right person."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded upon hearing this and said to Shuji.

"Ah."

Xiu Si nodded when he heard that, and the next moment, his figure disappeared without any warning.

"You indulge him too much, Hiruzen."

The moment Shuji's figure disappeared, Utane Koharu spoke to Sarutobi Hiruzen with a serious face.

"Oh? Where is the indulgence?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen chuckled when he heard this, and slowly turned his head to look at Utane Koharu.

"Should we make him a squad leader of the Anbu, or will we let the Uchiha join the Anbu because of him?"

Upon hearing this, Utane Koharu did not say anything, but just looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen silently.

The meaning is simple, all.

"You have the strength and ability, why can't you just become a captain of the Anbu?"

Seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded with a smile and asked Utane Koharu in return.

"Oh, by the way, qualifications."

Before Utane Koharu could say anything, Sarutobi Hiruzen gave the answer.

Chapter 156: What Sarutobi Hiruzen can’t solve, I will do

"Do you know how much the monetary reward was for the mission that Shuji completed on the battlefield this time?"

With his arms folded across his chest, Sarutobi Hiruzen silently asked Utane Koharu in front of him.

"How many?"

Utane Koharu was stunned when she heard this, and didn't quite understand why Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly brought up this topic.
