Chapter 124: Do You Even Bring Toys? (Please Subscribe!) "Xia Yan! What are you doing?!" Danzo arrived with a furious expression. "Bringing concubines to the battlefield? What are you thinking?!" On the battlefield, it's a place of desperate struggle. Although ninjas are slightly different from regular military forces, the difference on the battlefield is not that exaggerated. They also have morale. Xia Yan, as the deputy leader, brought his concubines. It's like a general leading a group of maidservants on a military expedition... It doesn't look like a general at all! Xia Yan blinked his eyes and smiled, "Who said you can't bring concubines to the battlefield?" "Elder Danzo, do we have such a rule in Konoha?" Of course not! Because before Xia Yan, no one had ever done such a thing! Laws that have never been violated naturally have no meaning. "Uchiha Xia Yan! Have you completely lost the honor of the Uchiha clan?!" Danzo snorted angrily, "I order you to send these people back!" "It doesn't matter to you, but it can't affect Konoha's reputation!" However, Xia Yan shook his head, "No, Elder Danzo, you don't have the right to do that... And besides, I brought them for the sake of the war."
"War is fought with manpower, and having an extra pair of hands means having an extra glimmer of hope..." "What will we do if the war continues and we have insufficient reserves of ninjas?" "That's when you'll realize the value of manpower." That makes sense. But are you suggesting we procreate right now? "Are you really planning to impregnate your wives and concubines?" Danzo couldn't help but widen his eyes. "What if they actually get pregnant? That's a battlefield!" "It's fine. I will arrange for manpower to protect the pregnant ones and send them back to the Uchiha main residence in Konoha, then replace them with a new batch who are not pregnant." Xia Yan said calmly, clearly that's what he had in mind. A mere war, and you think it can hinder the path of Uchiha's revival? Don't even think about it! Danzo was dumbfounded, and the other ninjas were also confused. There were rumors in the village that the Uchiha clan leader, Xia Yan, had been driven mad by the scarcity of population and had become obsessed with having children, almost to the point of paranoia for the Uchiha... Now it seems that this is actually true? "Xia Yan! Do you understand at all that we are going to the battlefield next?" Danzo's voice was filled with anger. He didn't care about Xia Yan's life, but he cared about the reputation of Konoha! Looking at Xia Yan embracing Ayame and Samui, and then looking at the frustrated expressions of the Konoha Shinobi around them, it was clear that they were also quite dissatisfied—anyone would feel the same when their teammates were having fun, eating, drinking, and flirting while they were fighting for their lives! "You want to have a child on the front lines? Why don't you bring a bed to the front lines then!" Danzo scolded. Xia Yan: "I already did." "Ah?" Danzo was taken aback.
Then he saw Xiayan take out a storage scroll and unseal it. The next second, a magnificent wooden bed appeared out of thin air. It came with soft pillows, clean sheets, and warm and comfortable bedding. "You even brought a bed?" Danzo was dumbfounded and couldn't help but say, "Why didn't you bring some food while you were at it?" "I did bring some," Xiayan replied. "Ah?" Xiayan unsealed another storage scroll. There were braised pork elbows, fragrant duck products, peanuts, candy pudding, jelly drinks, and everything else you could think of. Danzo asked, "What else did you bring!?" and felt a headache coming on. Xiayan thought for a moment and said, "A lot of things, like clean clothes, tables and chairs, alcohol and medicine, razors, facial cleanser, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and bedroom toys..." "Wait!" Danzo widened his eyes. "You even brought toys?!" "Yes," Xiayan nodded and said, "But that's more private, so let's not show them directly." "I didn't ask you to show them!" Danzo and the surrounding ninjas were all dumbfounded. Is this man going to the battlefield or on an outing? Although he was filled with anger inside. But in the end, Danzo did not send Xiayan back to Konoha. Even in the face of dissatisfaction from other ninjas, he defended Xiayan and forcefully suppressed everyone's objections, leading the troops to the front lines. Of course, his reason for defending Xiayan was simple - anyway, this guy won't live much longer! As long as he disappears early, the impact on morale will naturally be gone. It can even become an example in Konoha's military regulations - young masters, don't treat going to battle as an outing, people really die. The Uchiha clan has set an example for you! But in reality, before making this matter a true military regulation in Konoha, he couldn't really control Xiayan. Ninjas carry their unique "ninja tools," which is a custom of war. After all, ninjas have different styles of ninjutsu. For example, the Akimichi clan needs a lot of food to sustain the consumption of their family's secret techniques. So is it reasonable for them to bring more food? Should the Inuzuka clan prepare dog food and chew toys for their ninja dogs? The Aburame clan's individual insects' food is honey. Can you say they shouldn't bring honey as a dessert to the battlefield? Xiayan used the reason "the things I brought are my unique ninja tools" to argue that even Danzo couldn't forcibly order him to put them down. As for women...
That is naturally the privilege of the deputy leader - which superior doesn't have a few direct subordinates? Although the role of Xiayan's direct subordinates is different from others. In short, Danzo quickly confronted the ninja from the Village Hidden in the Mist with the reinforcements from the Leaf Village. It must be said that Danzo's reputation as the "darkness of the ninja world" is quite loud. Not only are the ninjas within the village fearful of him, but even the ninjas outside the village tremble at the mention of his name. After Danzo arrived, the aggression from the Mist Village noticeably decreased. Danzo is also an experienced veteran who has been on the battlefield since the first Great Ninja War, never missing a single one. In terms of deploying troops, he is experienced and not inferior to the Nara clan's ninjas. Under his several deployments, the Leaf Village launched a counterattack to a certain extent, causing some damage to the Mist Village. However, with the arrival of Mizukage Terumi Mei from the Mist Village, they were able to stabilize their position. Natsuhiko, on the other hand, worked hard during this time. Perhaps due to the novelty, Samui successfully conceived after a series of battles and was sent back to Konoha Village by Natsuhiko. During this time, Danzo did not take action. Although he wanted to kill Natsuhiko, even someone as rough as him knew the importance of discretion. It would be too deliberate to make the Uchiha's death public at the beginning of the war! "Wait, just wait a little longer," Danzo looked at the map and thought to himself, "Once the war has been going on for a while, I can send him out and let him die directly in the hands of the Mist Village." "Before that, I'll endure a little longer!" On the other side, Since the Mist Village has already joined the war, Terumi Mei naturally wouldn't foolishly attack the Leaf Village head-on. She seemed to have a sense of "I have already mastered all of this" and began to contact various shinobi, sending messengers to Cloud Shinobi, Sand Shinobi, and even Rock Shinobi. Frontline base of Sand Shinobi Village. "Lord Kazekage, our Mist Shinobi have already taken action. What are you waiting for?" The Mist Shinobi messenger said with great emphasis, "We have already attracted the attention of Danzo, the darkness of the ninja world, and the Third Hokage has deployed a large number of forces to assist the Cloud Shinobi." "This is the perfect opportunity for you here!" He said with deep regret, as if he wished he could become a Sand Shinobi himself and advise Lord Kazekage. In reality, the enemy that the Sand Shinobi led by Lord Kazekage faced was indeed the weakest. Even the Mist Shinobi Village, which had just taken action, had Danzo leading their elite forces, along with most of Konoha's forces. ...Flowers please... He was indeed the most suitable person to take action! However, what the Mist Shinobi messenger did not expect was that as soon as he spoke, he was bombarded by numerous Sand Shinobi! "Shut up! Are you Mist Shinobi teaching our village's Lord Kazekage how to do things?"
"Our Lord Kazekage has his own considerations. Why do we need to explain to you?" "Mere Mist Shinobi, just obediently follow the arrangements of our Lord Kazekage. Don't even think about influencing our Lord Kazekage's decision!" Mist Shinobi messenger: "..." Are these Sand Shinobi crazy? However, seeing the admiration in the eyes of the Sand Shinobi towards Lord Kazekage, the Mist Shinobi couldn't help but raise their evaluation of the Sand Shinobi. Due to the isolationist policy of the Mist Shinobi Village, they did not have much interaction with Sand Shinobi Village and Lord Kazekage Gaara. The only time they had interacted with Lord Kazekage Gaara was probably when Gaara betrayed Yekura. Although the trade at that time made the Mist Village very happy, they actually despised the behavior of selling out their village comrades like Gaara. However, looking at the enthusiasm of the Sand Shinobi now, the image of Gaara in the heart of the Mist envoy immediately became mysterious and unpredictable. The act of killing the Third Hokage, attacking Konoha, and retreating with the Sand Shinobi without obtaining accurate information, he refrained from commenting for now. But being able to make the Sand Shinobi so enthusiastic clearly indicates that they have already integrated the Sand Shinobi together and have supreme prestige... Obviously, Gaara is not an ordinary person! Thinking about it, the voice of the Mist envoy lowered a few degrees, and his attitude became more humble: "Fourth Kazekage, please consider my suggestion." "Currently, Konoha is severely lacking in manpower that can support them. Fifth Hokage Tsunade has not fully integrated Konoha's power, and most of their power is in Danzo's hands, being entangled by our Mist Village..." "The Sand Shinobi are currently in the most suitable period to take action!" Upon hearing this, Gaara smiled slightly, with a hint of sarcasm: "Most of their power is entangled by you?" "Yes." Although the Mist envoy felt that Gaara's tone was strange, he still said, "The darkness of the ninja world and his Root are all on our side of the Mist Village. Isn't this enough to prove my words?" "And not only the darkness of the ninja world, but also the likes of the Aburame clan's Aburame Torune, the Nara clan's Nara Shikaku, the Inuzuka clan's..." The Mist envoy mentioned several names in succession, all of them being elite with considerable strength. But before he could finish, he was interrupted by Gaara's cold laughter: "Aburame Torune? Nara Shikaku?" "Even the leader of a major Konoha clan is not here, and you have the audacity to say that the Mist Village has attracted most of Konoha's power?" The face of the Mist envoy instantly turned red. Yes, although the names he mentioned had considerable strength and were considered elite, they were still a bit inferior to those clan leaders! In terms of the number of people, most of Konoha's power is indeed exaggerated on the battlefield of the Mist Village. However, since he came as an envoy, the Mist Village envoy naturally has a thick skin. He pretended to be indifferent and said, "The head of a big clan is not nonexistent, for example, the head of the Uchiha clan is serving as the deputy leader of Konoha on our side..." Then, more disdain came from the crowd—The head of the Uchiha clan? That so-called shame of the Jonin, Uchiha Natsuhiko, who is busy having children every day? Oh, it seems that this guy killed one of our elite Jonin from the Sand Shinobi Village in the Konoha Collapse Plan.
But that's it! He is not worthy of being considered a true strong person! However, before the Sand Shinobi could mock further, Gaara suddenly stood up. "What did you say? Say it again?" "Huh?" The Mist Village envoy was stunned and said, "The head of the Uchiha clan is serving as the deputy leader of Konoha on our side..." "I see!" Gaara's eyes lit up. "It seems that you Mist Shinobi have really attracted most of Konoha Village's power. I will now stop the Sand Shinobi and launch an attack!" Natsuhiko actually went to the Mist Village? If we don't take action now, when will we take action? ...
