In the conference room.

"The resistance in the Kingdom of Demons is stronger than expected. I didn't expect that the Maki Jonin would be restrained there. At this rate, it will be difficult to achieve the idea of ​​ending the battle within a month."

The first person to speak out at the meeting was an elderly Sunagakure elder.

The difficult situation that Ma Ji encountered in the Kingdom of Ghosts has been truthfully reported to the village. There is no exaggeration or belittling in the letter. The various situation judgments are also very pertinent. They are objectively stating the true situation on the battlefield in the Kingdom of Ghosts.

In this way, the senior management of Sand Hidden Village present can more intuitively understand the true strength of the Kingdom of Demons.

You can get a glimpse of the strength of the regular ninja troops in the Kingdom of Oni from the group of debt collectors. Although they are strong, they are definitely not comparable to Sunagakure in terms of frontal combat capabilities.

Only the air force is the real ace force of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

Fifty ninjas, with the help of special flying ninja tools, can contain a thousand Sunagakure ninjas under certain circumstances. I have to admit that this is a very outstanding achievement.

In the past, when the ninjas of the Kingdom of Kong faced the formal troops of the five major countries, they were far from reaching such an exaggerated level.

Although, there is a reason why Sunagakure Village is not good at dealing with enemies in the air, so Oni Country's air force launched an air strike without any pressure, and contained Maki's troops in one fell swoop.

But strength is strength. There are many weaknesses in the Kingdom of Demons, but the advantages of the ninja troops in the Demon Kingdom cannot be ignored.

"Maki Jonin is a ninja who deals with facts, and his statements are basically not exaggerated. So from the current point of view, dispatching additional troops in advance is a very critical step."

Another elder said.

"How many additional ninjas should be sent?"

Someone asked.

Everyone in the conference room was lost in thought. To be honest, according to the original plan, two thousand to three thousand ninjas were dispatched to end the battle with the Kingdom of Ghosts within a month.

Now, judging from the intelligence sent back by Markey, there are serious errors between the original plan and reality.

"One thousand... no, send another two thousand ninjas, and I will lead them myself."

A voice suddenly sounded, and everyone couldn't help but look surprised, with expressions of surprise on their faces.

"Kazekage-sama?"

The person who just spoke was none other than the Fourth Kazekage Rasa.

He glanced at all the senior executives present with a serious expression and breathed out softly.

"This war should not be long-lasting. We must fight it as quickly as possible to avoid greater losses. Besides, my abilities will be greatly limited in the water environment, and the sky is also one of my home fields. Let's decide like this."

The reasons given by Rasa were difficult for Sunagakure's senior executives to refute.

Rasa, who can become the Fourth Kazekage, is also the most powerful ninja in the ninja world.

As he said, in addition to the water environment, land and sky are his home ground, and he can grasp the rhythm of the battle very well.

"Since Mr. Kazekage has made this decision, then the security work must be foolproof."

Regarding the issue of Kazekage's participation in the battle, in fact, in the eyes of Sunagakure's senior management, it is not something worth making a fuss about.

Among the ninja villages of the five major countries, except for Konoha and Kirigakure, which has not been involved in the battlefield since the first ninja war, the shadows of Sunagakure, Iwagakure, and Kumogakure are often active on the battlefield.

Personally lead the village's ninjas in a bloody battle with the enemy.

Although there will be dangers and other situations, it will also greatly boost your own morale.

Moreover, as long as you do a good job of defense in advance and don't act recklessly like the Third Raikage, the safety of the Five Shadows on the battlefield can still be largely guaranteed.

"Yes, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. Although Lord Kazekage is strong, it is impossible to take care of everything. The number of guard jounin has been increased to more than six people. If the number of guards is insufficient, then the remaining personnel will come from ANBU masters

Middle School."

There were three guard jounin who were originally responsible for Kazekage's safety.

Each one of them is the leading jounin in Sunagakure Village, no weaker than Maki who is fighting on the front line.

Taking into account the danger of the battlefield and the fact that the depth of the Demon Kingdom's air force cannot be determined accurately, the number of escort members was increased to more than six for the sake of Luo Sa's safety.

Luo Sha had no reason to refuse these arrangements.

After all, the tragic example of the previous Kazekage is still vivid in our minds. He mysteriously disappeared from the village and the real culprit has not been found so far.

If there were a few more Jonin guarding the Third Kazekage at that time, the pattern of the Third Ninja World War would have been rewritten.

Sunagakure Village will not remain in a stalemate with Konoha for a long time in the Rain Country. Instead, under the leadership of the Third Kazekage, they will invade the Fire Country in one go.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you to dispatch manpower from the ANBU. I'll assemble the troops and try to make all the preparations before five o'clock tomorrow morning."

Time waits for no one, it is already three o'clock in the afternoon, and there is not much time left before five o'clock tomorrow morning.

It is uncertain how long Ma Ji can sustain it. Just in case, he must lead his troops to rush over for reinforcements as soon as possible.

No matter what kind of trump cards are hidden in the Kingdom of Ghosts, as long as he, as the Kazekage, takes action, any conspiracy or conspiracy will be nothing to worry about in the face of absolute strength.

Star Ninja Village.

On the surface, it is just the original Star Ninja Village. It has been simply repaired. From the outside, it looks like a small village with a relatively neat and orderly architectural structure.

Villages of this level can be found everywhere in the five major countries.

However, what is not known is that the underground of the Star Ninja Village has long been hollowed out by the ninja engineering team of the Kingdom of Demons.

It is an underground town that is even larger than the Star Ninja Village on the surface.

Military bases, schools, hospitals, shops, power supply facilities, including concrete residential houses, everything is available.

The entrances and exits have been interfered with by ninjas from the Uzumaki clan using magic techniques, making it almost impossible for outsiders to find their way in.

In the military control area, Liuli did not sit in the office and deal with complicated business matters, but continued to hone his ninjutsu in the training room.

The dark red chakra blade held in his hand is a partial entity that was split from Susanoo.

It can be used at will without opening the Mangekyo Sharingan. The hardness of the blade is much higher than that of ordinary blades, and the hardness of the blade will increase or decrease with the amount of chakra input.

Then fierce electric light covered the sword body, and the power of the sword blade in the state of lightning escape was further enhanced.

Ever since she awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, she has focused her energy on studying fire escape on thunder escape.

Granting thunder attribute chakra is not a difficult task for Liuli who has thoroughly practiced Thunder Escape.

Liuli didn't hesitate at all and swung the sword hard.

There was a stone pillar in front of him, and a white light passed through the middle. There were sword marks on the stone pillar that could only be seen clearly with the naked eye.

The upper part of the stone pillar began to tilt with the slope, and finally fell to the ground.

The stone pillar, which was as hard as steel, was cut open by the sword like tofu.

Liuli is not satisfied with this. He still has huge room for improvement, and there is still a long way to go before his current extreme position.

If you are in the state of the Three Magatama Sharingan, no matter how you improve yourself, you can easily touch your own bottleneck, and it will be very difficult to improve your strength every time.

After possessing the Mangekyou Sharingan, as its capacity increases, bottlenecks will naturally no longer need to be taken care of for the time being.

At this time, a black four-legged cub with a single horn on its forehead ran over from a distance.

There was a document in his mouth.

It's Shiraishi's Thunder Clone, Thunder Pill.

It is a defensive personnel specially sent by Shiraishi to Hoshi Ninja Village and stationed here. It is also the supervisor of Hoshi Ninja Village. It is not responsible for managing affairs at ordinary times, but will report the situation here to Shiraishi.

Therefore, if there is any problem here, Shiraishi will know the situation as soon as possible and solve the problem.

Star Ninja Village is an extremely important branch base, and it is also a very important logistics supply base in the upcoming battle with the Kingdom of Wind. It is personally monitored by his clone, which is in line with Shiraishi's cautious approach.

Sometimes, Liuli also wonders if Shiraishi is used to being greedy for life and afraid of death. No matter what he does, he will subconsciously adopt a very conservative and safe approach.

Safety first is a motto just for him.

"Mother, my father's order has come, and we can take formal action against the Kingdom of Wind."

Liuli took the document from Lei Mingmaru and looked at the content. It was the same as what Lei Mingmaru said. It was a formal document for Shiraishi to ask her to attack the Kingdom of Wind.

"That is to say, he has begun to publicly declare war on various countries, right?"

Although sometimes I feel that the so-called international treaties are just ridiculous rules that the five major countries use to amuse themselves and then restrict the development of small countries.

But when taking formal action, I still feel inexplicably that this hypocritical international agreement still exists, even if it seems very unreasonable and unfair.

At least it should make the Kingdom of Ghosts appear to be abiding by the agreement between the major powers, instead of going beyond this rule and adopting other rules.

"Yes. It will take about two to three days for all countries to know the situation here."

"It's almost as expected. Then, I'll leave the logistics and supply work here to you, Thunder Pill."

Liuli dispersed the chakra blade and thunder attribute chakra in his hand, and said to Thunder Maru.

"Please feel free to leave it to me, Mother. After all, Star Ninja Village has already gathered a lot of supplies for this day, and now it is finally put to use."

Lei Mingwan nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, Liuli left the training room, summoned the two thousand ninjas who had followed her from the Kingdom of Ghosts, and started heading towards the Kingdom of Wind.
