Ghost Country Intelligence and Security Supervision Department, data room on the third underground floor.

There are approximately hundreds of maintenance personnel stationed in this department.

The only part of their job here is to maintain the intelligence agencies of the entire Ghost Country operating 24 hours a day, all year round.

Although it is not necessary to be ready to go to the battlefield at any time like the combat department, the personnel working here are also under tremendous pressure due to the difficulty of their work.

Every moment, new information will flow in from external branches, and then the new information must be sorted out and sent to the corresponding personnel accurately and accurately as soon as possible. If there is a word of flaw in it, it may

The country of ghosts suffered huge losses.

Therefore, even though there are hundreds of regular employees, the working environment here is often high-pressure due to the huge and complex amount of information being processed.

Having said that, none of this has much to do with Kakashi at the moment.

He was parachuted into this department by Shiraishi and held the position of so-called "security consultant". However, the most important job at present is not to directly participate in the same working environment as others, but to make the most of what the Kingdom of Ghosts has gained so far.

Get a thorough understanding of the important information.

Then, by the way, supervise the daily work attitude of the staff here to see if there are any defects.

Although he does not have the real power to make direct arrests or make personnel transfers, he is able to achieve the goal of "reaching heaven to listen", which is enough to prove that this position is not as simple as imagined.

Because the actual person in charge of Kakashi is Shiraishi, who is the Minister of Military Affairs, and he is a close minister with a very close relationship. Basically, only those who are absolutely loyal and reliable in work ability can appear in this position.

Therefore, for Kakashi, the most important job at the moment is to read a lot of information and know it by heart. Even if he cannot read it by heart, he must find the corresponding information as soon as possible in an unexpected moment.

Collect.

From this point of view, the importance of this position is self-evident.

Especially when looking to the future, the channels for promotion as a "security consultant" are not only diverse, but some even lead directly to the core levels of the military.

After visiting Sasuke, he stayed in the underground data room of the Intelligence Department and read the collection here.

The intelligence system of the Kingdom of Demons is very large and more complete than that of Konoha. The amount of top-secret information collected is also higher than that of Konoha.

Especially in terms of details, some of the information included makes people feel incredible as if they were personally present and directly involved.

Light footsteps came from the side, Kakashi raised his head, and it was a manager of the data room who came over.

"Mr. Kakashi, Master Shiraishi asked you to come over."

"I see."

Kakashi simply put the unfinished information in the corresponding place and left the quiet data room.

It was about half an hour later that I slowly arrived at Shiraishi's office.

Judging from the way he conveyed the message, it was not an urgent matter, so Kakashi strolled over and didn't appear to be very anxious.

After hearing a voice saying 'Come in,' Kakashi opened the door and entered the office.

Sure enough, I saw Shiraishi working hard at the desk.

As Minister of Military Affairs, his burden is not easy either.

I just don’t know if it is the real body here.

Shiraishi, who is both the Minister of Military Affairs and a researcher, does not spend all his time in the office, dealing with heavy official duties. Instead, he will leave a clone to work for him from time to time, while the main body goes to the research laboratory to carry out research tasks.

.

Shiraishi didn't say anything about Kakashi's lateness and attitude. It was just a trivial matter, and what he asked Kakashi to do at this time was not an urgent matter.

"How's it going over there, Uchiha Sasuke? Has the situation stabilized?"

Shiraishi was naturally not asking about Sasuke's physical injuries. No matter how serious the injury was, even if he had a short leg,

Shiraishi can also heal his arm.

What he was asking about was Sasuke's mental state at this time.

"After venting, he has stabilized for the time being. It seems that after this incident, he has a deep understanding of where his limits are at this time. He should be more cautious and serious in his next planning arrangements."

Kakashi already knew the specific things from Obito, including Sasuke's defeat at the hands of Naruto, and he also had an in-depth understanding of it.

In his opinion, if Sasuke's simple revenge against Konoha had not been backed by the Demon Country, he might have been arrested as soon as he entered and become a guinea pig on the operating table.

Even though Konoha's current power has been reduced again and again, for Sasuke, who had just awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, it was still a behemoth.

If we were fighting guerrilla battles outside, we might still have a chance of winning. If we stormed into Konoha headquarters, we probably wouldn't have thought that we could come out alive from the beginning.

Kakashi grasped Sasuke's thoughts very accurately.

"That's good, then I won't go over and ask *** in person. Liuli will probably go over and visit him personally to understand his specific situation at this time."

After all, Ruri, the rising star of the Uchiha clan, as the clan leader, would naturally have high hopes for young people like Sasuke.

Although Sasuke has many flaws, the Uchiha clan, which is famous for its strength, can perfectly cover up other flaws as long as it is strong enough.

No matter how chaotic the world is, powerful force is always an important weapon that protects individuals, families, and the country.

"Then why did you call me here at this time?"

Kakashi asked straight to the point.

As a security consultant for the intelligence department, Kakashi's tasks are neither important nor trivial.

After all, with such a huge amount of information, even scanning the important parts would take at least more than a month.

"How do you understand the external situation?"

Shiraishi did not answer directly, but asked like this.

Kakashi carefully considered his words, unable to guess Shiraishi's intention at this time, so he could only reply: "I don't dare to say that I understand 100% of it, but I understand it 70% to 80% of the time."

Even if it is important information, Kakashi will give priority to reading important information developed in recent years and take the lead in collecting and recording it.

The outside Shiraishi refers to is the battlefield of small countries outside the Kingdom of Demons, which is controlled behind the scenes by the Kingdom of Demons.

Generally speaking, direct collisions between big countries rarely occur after the establishment of the one-country-one-village era.

Now more than sixty years have passed, such large-scale collisions between great powers have occurred only four times, that is, four ninja wars.

Most of the time, games between big countries are played by controlling small countries behind the scenes as chess players on the chessboard.

According to what Kakashi learned, the Kingdom of Demons has now made direct industrial investment in fifteen small countries, and countless indirect investments.

Compared with big countries, there are as many small countries as crucian carp crossing a river.

Some small countries with only one castle and a few villages and towns can also be called a country.

"That's good. There are problems with the intelligence agencies of several countries. Hidden problems cannot be found out just by looking at the words. So I hope you will take someone over to the countries mentioned on the list and tell them about the intelligence agencies established there.

Check the intelligence system. By the way, see if there are any mice in there."

Kakashi is not only Shiraishi's security adviser in the intelligence department, but also has experience as a spy and the head of Konoha's ANBU.

In this matter, Kakashi's ability to do things cannot be said to be the best in the Demon Country, but at least it will make Shiraishi feel at ease.

The intelligence department has always been an extremely important piece of the puzzle in Whitestone's blueprint.

The initiation and preparation of any operation are inseparable from all kinds of collected intelligence information.

Any problems in this place are not allowed by Baishi, and they will not be merciful to those who have problems when necessary.

"It can be

Okay, when are you leaving? Now?"

Kakashi glanced at the list handed over by Shiraishi. It mentioned the intelligence branches of more than a dozen countries. There were as many as five or six highlighted in red circles.

Checking them all may take a lot of time.

Shiraishi pondered for a moment and said, "It's best to draw the personnel from the Intelligence Department yourself within three days."

Kakashi nodded and left Shiraishi's office.

The injury healed faster than Sasuke imagined. According to his guess, it would take a week to recover, but on the third day, Sasuke was able to get out of bed. Although he could not fully recover, at least he could no longer move.

Even if he is hindered, the power he can use can reach 60 to 70% of what he was in his heyday. He no longer needs to lie in a hospital bed and receive care from nursing staff.

From this point of view, the medical technology of Oni Country is indeed very advanced, and villages like Otogakure cannot compare with it. In the past, he was injured and hospitalized by Orochimaru, and the recovery time was much longer than this time.

.

During this period, apart from Kakashi and Uchiha Ruri, the leader of the Uchiha clan in the Kingdom of Demons, the only people who came to visit him were Jugo and the four others who rushed back from the Country of Fire after he evacuated Konoha.

people.

As they were the ones who attracted Konoha's firepower from the outside during his attack on Konoha, it was quite annoying to play a hide-and-seek game with the Konoha ninjas in the Land of Fire. If it weren't for Jugo as their trump card, they would probably be in Konoha.

Surrounded by Ye Ninja, the entire army was wiped out.

As a village under the rule of a great power, although individual Konoha ninjas cannot be compared with ninjas like Sasuke, for ninjas at the level of the four, once they are surrounded, it is basically a situation of death and no life.

The four of them were originally a few elite ninjas in Otogakure Village except Orochimaru. Even so, they were still encircled and suppressed by Konoha's patrol forces and were unable to confront them head-on. One can imagine the strength between the big and small countries.

The gap, it is not easy to smooth out such a difference in strength.

In short, the good thing among the misfortunes is that they all came back alive and well under the protection of Chongwu.
