Chapter 21 Purchase Of Ninja Duck, Konoha Shinobi Sends Out

Uchiha Huanghuo thought that he had to eat enough to make the digestive power of the Sealing Technique Rokuku Immortal Thief be used to the limit.

In this way, he would grow better and improve his strength faster.

So, Uchiha Huanghuo went to find the elder Uchiha Yunlong who was in charge of the family's Ninja Duck Farm.

"What? Huanghuo, you want to buy 1,800 Ninja Ducks?"

"One person can't eat so much, right? Huanghuo, what are you going to do?"

Hearing such a large number, Uchiha Yunlong was immediately surprised and asked Huanghuo what his plan was.

"Elder Yunlong, I can actually eat 30 Ninja Ducks in one meal."

"Is it a lie? Even those guys from the Akamichi clan only eat more than a dozen Ninja Ducks in one meal. Huanghuo, you are not from the Akamichi clan, how can you have such a big appetite?"

Uchiha Yunlong said that this was a joke, right?

"Since Elder Yunlong doesn't believe me, I can perform on the spot. Give me 30 roasted ninja ducks first."

Uchiha Huanghuo smiled, saying that it was just right for dinner, and eating for free was the happiest thing.

"Don't force yourself, Huanghuo. It's not good to eat badly just to prove your appetite."

Uchiha Yunlong was indeed a little panicked, thinking that the young tribesman in front of him was very proud and might force himself to eat out of spite.

However, Uchiha Huanghuo was determined to get a free meal, so Uchiha Yunlong reluctantly agreed, thinking in his heart how to give Huanghuo a way out when he couldn't eat.

However, Uchiha Huanghuo then ate 30 roasted ninja ducks, and such an amazing appetite stunned Uchiha Yunlong.

"Could it be that Uchiha Huanghuo inherited the blood of the Akamichi clan?"

Uchiha Yunlong was shocked and thought so in his heart, and even thought about whether Uchiha Huanghuo's parents and relatives were really related to the Akamichi clan.

In Uchiha Yunlong's impression, the only people in Konoha who have such a large appetite are the Akamichi clan.

After thinking about it in vain, he decided that Uchiha Huanghuo's appetite must be a natural gift.

So he agreed to buy 1,800 Ninja Ducks.

An ordinary duck is about 30 taels, while a Ninja Duck is more than 300 taels.

So 1,800 Ninja Ducks must cost more than 50,000 taels. Due to Uchiha Huanghuo's contribution, Uchiha Yunlong rounded off the amount and only needed to give 50,000 taels.

Now Huanghuo is not short of money. The 10 million taels rewarded by the family for researching edible Ninja Ducks still have more than 8 million taels left.

Hokage Building, Konoha Jōnin Meeting.

Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen rarely brought his pipe, and announced solemnly: "Everyone, the war is coming."

"According to the intelligence, three thousand Sand Shinobi broke through the River Country and are heading to the border of the Fire Country.

The Cloud Shinobi have invaded the small country with heavy troops and have also come to the border of the Fire Country.

The Mist Shinobi have entered the Whirlpool Country to plunder resources, and the Rock Shinobi have stationed troops at the border of the Grass Country."

"The situation is so critical that the Fire Country is in danger. The Konoha Shinobi must send troops."

Shimura Danzō thought bitterly: "I told Sarutobi Hiruzen a long time ago that we should prepare in advance and attack the Wind Country first when necessary."

"If we destroy the Sand Shinobi Village with heavy troops, I'm sure the other ninja villages in the ninja world will not dare to besiege the Fire Country."

Konoha had known about the disappearance of the Third Kazekage for a long time. Shimura Danzō wanted to take this opportunity to invade the Wind Country and destroy the Sand Shinobi Village.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen, who claims to be a peace lover, disagreed no matter what.

The two of them performed the Saruhi Danzō regret many times in the office, and finally Shimura Danzō was defeated.

However, it was too late to say anything now. Sarutobi Hiruzen's indecision and hesitation made Shimura Danzō extremely disappointed.

"If I were the Hokage of Konoha, I would definitely not let Konoha suffer such a situation."

At this moment, Shimura Danzō's will to become Hokage was extremely strong.

And Sarutobi Hiruzen pondered for a while and gave the order.

"Orochimaru, lead two thousand Konoha Shinobi to intercept the Sand Shinobi soldiers from the River Country. Make sure to make the Sand Shinobi withdraw from the Fire Country, and it would be best if you can drive the Sand Shinobi back to the Wind Country."

"Of course, this battle still needs to be steady, and the first priority is to protect the border of the Fire Country."

Orochimaru nodded calmly.

"Jiraiya leads two thousand Konoha Shinobi to repel the Cloud Shinobi troops. Be careful. You only need to repel the Cloud Shinobi's attack. With the style of the Cloud Shinobi, if they can't get anything good from the Fire Country, they will definitely change their target."

Sarutobi Hiruzen understands the bandit style of the Cloud Shinobi very well, and thinks it's okay to divert the trouble to someone else.

Jiraiya patted his chest and said that everything was left to him.

Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to raise his hand to smoke his pipe as a conditioned reflex, but found that he didn't bring a pipe.

"Then consider the Mist Shinobi and Rock Shinobi next. The Rock Shinobi is keeping their troops in place. The cunning Ohnoki should want to fish in troubled waters and gain the benefits of the fisherman. So just send the corresponding personnel to monitor."

"The Mist Shinobi must pay special attention, but the most urgent task is to solve the invasion of Sand Shinobi and Cloud Shinobi."

Among the many invading ninjas, Sand Shinobi and Cloud Shinobi are the craziest.

"Danzo and the Root Ninja can monitor the movements of Rock Shinobi and cause trouble for Rock Shinobi when necessary."

"What about the Mist Ninja? The village has enough troops at the moment, but we need a qualified commander."

Originally, Hatake Sakumo was undoubtedly the most suitable, but now he committed suicide due to rumors, and Tsunade also suffers from hemophobia, which makes it difficult to deal with.

After thinking about it, Sarutobi Hiruzen thought of Anbu's Minister Mitarashi Zixiao.

He issued another order.

Then the whole Konoha operated like a machine, countless ninjas gathered to form teams, and countless supplies were gathered.

Team 8 also received the order to follow Orochimaru to send troops.

At about six o'clock the next day, thousands of Konoha Shinobi walked out of Konoha and then divided their troops to act.

Orochimaru led two thousand Konoha Shinobi to the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rivers in a ninja rapid march mode.

The ninjas were very fast, so it was no problem for them to cross mountains and hills. They drank water when they were thirsty and ate food pills when they were hungry. In 10 hours, they reached the border fortress of the Land of Fire, Kikyo Castle.

However, the situation of Kikyo Castle was not optimistic now. The Kikyo Mountain outside the city was full of Sand Shinobi.

There were only about 100 Konoha garrison ninjas left in Kikyo Castle.

Of the original 300 garrison ninjas, nearly 200 had died in the battle.

Those Sand Shinobi were still cooperating to break into Kikyo Castle.

"It's not good. These Sand Shinobi are going to break into Kikyo Castle."

"If the Sand Shinobi take Kikyo Castle, it will cost a lot to take it back."
