"It's nothing. I was just about to say something, but I forgot."

"Oh, I've had that experience too, I just forgot what I was going to say."

Not long after the fox left, Gekkomune entered the tent and came to Hatake Sakumo's side.

Gekko-michi said, "Some other ninjas who came to the front lines to deliver supplies also talked about the Land of Grass."

Some time ago, the Shimura clan lost four ninjas, including two Jonin and two Special Jonin, all of whom were guardian ninjas of the Daimyo of the Land of Grass.

It was highly targeted, only killing ninjas from the Shimura clan.

Orochimaru personally led the investigation, but did not release the results.

The murderer pointed to some people with special identities, which the village could not disclose.

The Shimura clan dispatched four more guardian ninja to replace the four who had fallen.

Hatake Sakumo's intelligence network was not very good; he didn't know about the affairs of the Land of Grass earlier than ordinary ninjas.

He was about to ask the fox about the Grass Country, but then he thought better of it.

What if there really is some connection?

Having gone through so much, he has come to understand his place to some extent.

Some things are better left unsaid, even if you have some speculations.

In the middle of the night, Hatake Sakumo returned to his tent and saw Gekkomune waiting at the tent entrance.

He and Moonlight Sect entered the tent together.

Moonlight Sect said, "Shuo Mao, we're quite lucky."

While the sacrifice of the four Shimura ninjas is certainly sympathetic, Danzo is in deep trouble, so no one is targeting us for the time being.

I kept a close watch on my surroundings. We only had the Fox Squad here; there were no other Root or Anbu ninjas.

It feels so good to have no one to hold me back.

Sakumo Hatake nodded repeatedly.

At the beginning of the year, during the Jonin class meeting, he had a significant conflict with the village's higher-ups over the number of Jonin recommendation slots.

Now that Danzo is preoccupied with his own problems, his pressure has lessened considerably.

He led four battalions at the front, and the ninjutsu review system was implemented very smoothly.

Many chuunibyou and genin have acquired their desired ninjutsu.

Moonlight Sect said, "Shuo Mao, although the situation at the front is tense, a hasty raid on the Cloud Ninja camp is risky, and ending this conflict too early will not help us recruit more comrades..."

"No, if possible, the conflict should end as soon as possible," said Sakumo Hatake.

"Our gains and losses are not important. The Ninja World War has only ended for a little over half a year. The Konoha ninjas should not get bogged down in the quagmire of war."

This conflict between the Cloud Ninja and the Leaf Village arose because of my investigation into the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, Ryuuto, and it must be ended by me.

Every Konoha ninja who dies is a precious treasure.

Gekkomune wanted to say something, but then he thought that the reason he trusted Hatake Sakumo was because Hatake Sakumo cherished his comrades.

While in his tent, Ye Guang suddenly sensed the contract chakra of the ninja dog Pakkun.

After summoning Puck, Puck emphasized Sakumo's will.

Sakumo Hatake would not deliberately prolong a conflict or war in order to cultivate his own strength.

Ye Guang said, "Okay, I understand."

In the left ear, out the right ear.

I know, but I disagree.

At this time, the situation in Konoha Village remained turbulent.

Hatake Sakumo should end this conflict early; otherwise, he'll just become a target when he returns to the village. It's better for him to stay here.

The Cloud Ninja's camp is not so easy to raid.

If Sakumo Hatake suffers a setback and defeats here, it will be a devastating blow to him.

The higher-ups have failed many times. If Sakumo Hatake fails even once, he will be targeted relentlessly by the higher-ups.
