The complicated and trivial matters were dealt with one after another. After a week passed, on the morning of the eighth day, Lei Luo received the news from Danzo's people and knew that it was time for him to set off.
Then, he sent No Naiyu to contact his subordinates.
Since Lei Luo currently has a lot of subordinates, Nonoyu is too busy alone, so he handed over the list of personnel in his hand to the latter, and ordered Nonoyu to find Shiranui Kusama, Yue Guanghua said
Wait for someone to help.
After running around for a while, when all the people from all parties were notified and arrived, the time came to one o'clock in the afternoon unknowingly.
…
Today, the sun is shining brightly.
It's a good weather for traveling.
At the entrance of Konoha Village, there is a quiet atmosphere.
Lei Luo stood on a large rock made of unknown soil, several meters high in the air, his black robe like ink fluttering gently in the breeze.
A forehead protector that I haven't worn for who knows how long is tied to my forehead.
The iron piece marked with a wooden leaf pattern shimmered with metallic luster under the sunlight.
At his waist, there was another long sword that he had asked for from Danzo, and it was pinned there quietly.
The dark yellow scabbard seems to be integrated with the jet black robe covering it.
With his hands behind his back leisurely and contentedly, and a calm expression on his face, Lei Luo nodded slightly and cast his gaze down and forward:
Densely packed heads immediately came into view, the number must be hundreds at least.
In fact, according to Nonoyu's report just now, Lei Luo can clearly grasp the number of people below: a total of one hundred and twenty-three people.
Among these people, there are shadow-level masters like Aburame Shiguro, elite jounin like Orochimaru, and jinchūriki like Namikaze Minato, who are silently hidden in the crowd.
There were those standing in the center of the crowd, with faint excitement in their expressions, and those who couldn't help but look around, including genin like Matt Dai and chuunin like Kato Rika.
There are ordinary jonins, special jonins and other backbones like Shiranui Kusama, Gekko Kando, and Morino Iken who are listed at the front.
From Kage level to Genin level, there are a total of one hundred and twenty-three ninjas.
No matter how strong these people are at this moment, they all have a common identity, and that is...
They all belong to Lei Luo's subordinates.
At the same time, they were also the first batch of organized combat troops controlled by Lei Luo, the first true ninja army.
The composition of this ninja army of hundreds of people is extremely monotonous:
Except for those few family ninjas, most, even more than 90%, are civilian ninjas.
If you don't count Aburame Shiguro and others in the crowd, then the overall combat effectiveness of this ninja army can be said to be extremely low.
Not to mention the troops that can be formed into an army by just one clan like the Hyuuga clan or the Uchiha clan, let's talk about the most common ninja army in Konoha. The ratio of personnel within the army is not so unbalanced.
Excluding those few high-end combat forces, this is a purely civilian ninja force. Every ninja in the force has no secret skills and no blood limit.
In this way, one can imagine their strength.
However, Lei Luo has never cared about the overall combat power of this unit. What he cares about is only the purity of this unit, and that this unit is actually only loyal to his personal essence, Lei Luo.
This is even more important than their combat prowess.
After all, Lei Luo's goal is just to rely on the existence of these direct personnel and promote the key personnel among them as an extension of his will, and then firmly control the more than 5,000 people in the Kingdom of Wind.
After finishing his thoughts, Lei Luo's eyes became solemn, and his gaze suddenly glanced downward like an eagle, "Everyone, you should all understand what our mission is this time."
"it's here……"
After a slight pause, Lei Luo touched his chest with one hand, bent down slightly, bowed to the people below, then straightened his back and said loudly:
"I, Lei Luo, first of all want to accept your trust and thank you for your support!"
"Secondly, since you have unswervingly chosen me, Lei Luo, as your commander, then..."
Having said this, Lei Luo's expression suddenly became extremely focused, and his attitude was extremely serious as he continued:
"I, Lei Luo, will definitely be responsible for the lives of each of you, and I will never betray your trust."
"third……"
Taking a deep breath, Lei Luo raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showed a confident smile, and shouted loudly:
"Believe me, there is nothing to be afraid of in Sand Hidden Village!"
"The so-called Puppet Master Army and the Third Kazekage... in my opinion, are just a group of people who deceive the world and steal their reputation, and are essentially vulnerable!"
"As long as you can strictly implement every order of mine, then I can guarantee here now..."
"Victory will definitely belong to us in Konoha!"
As he finished speaking, he saw that the atmosphere below was vaguely stirred up by him. Although the ninjas remained quiet, many people's faces showed excitement, enthusiasm, excitement and other emotions...
Lei Luo felt a little satisfied, and immediately raised his hand suddenly, extending his palm diagonally forward, pointing straight to the sky:
"Set off!"
…
When Lei Luo's brief swearing-in speech at the entrance of Konoha Village ended, the mighty march also began, with hundreds of ninjas running at full speed towards the west of the Land of Fire.
In the process, Lei Luo also learned about the war situation between Konoha and Sunagakure through the information that Nonoyu kept passing to him:
Since Konoha's high-end combat power was basically concentrated on the Rain Kingdom battlefield, therefore, in the extreme lack of high-end combat power, the Konoha ninja army led by Hatake Sakumo was defeated by Sunagakure.
From the Kingdom of Wind to the Kingdom of Sichuan, and then from the Kingdom of Sichuan to the Kingdom of Fire, Konoha's battle line continued to retreat, and now it has retreated to a position more than thirty kilometers behind the western border of the Kingdom of Fire.
The flames of war have reached the territory of the Kingdom of Fire.
In other words, from the beginning of the war until now, in just over a year, Konoha has retreated more than hundreds of kilometers?
The situation seems extremely serious, but Lei Luo is not worried at all. After all, he currently has too many trump cards.
Let's not talk about his own terrifying strength that can defeat the Great Ninja Murakage head-on, but let's talk about his subordinates:
Aburame Shiguro, Namikaze Minato, Orochimaru, Matt Dai, and Hinata Tamaki who will take some time to arrive on the battlefield, none of these guys are simple characters.
Among them, especially Namikaze Minato, who is a Jinchuuriki and has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique.
This fourth-generation Hokage from the original time and space is truly a "big killer on the battlefield" at this moment, and his threat level is probably several orders of magnitude higher than that of ordinary tailed beast Jinchūriki.
And Matt Dai... With Lei Luo's countercurrent, as long as Matt Dai can trust Lei Luo and be ruthless enough to open the door to death, that kind of scene... doesn't matter.
