The following morning, at the Konoha Auditorium.

Nishikawa Tetsu stood behind the podium, looking at the more than one hundred people below, and suddenly felt a little dazed.

The auditorium has a capacity of several hundred people, but it was already more than half full today.

The first few rows were occupied by more than twenty practitioners who were already able to use the Flying Thunder Formation Technique and the heads of each node. Behind them sat more than sixty ninjas who were undergoing training, as well as initial staff responsible for inspection, vigilance, recording, communication, and daily maintenance.

Minister Koharu, Advisor Mitokado Homura, and the Third Hokage sat in the audience section on the side, all three with smiles on their faces.

Nishikawa Tetsu looked at the three familiar faces and silently repeated them in his mind once more.

A group of leaders who have nothing better to do.

He originally intended to delegate the personnel arrangements for Konoha Express to others, while he would be responsible for the technology and budget, and occasionally offer some advice at crucial moments.

As a result, Minister Xiaochun's words, "It's your own project, and you're not planning to teach any classes at all?" directly put him on the podium.

Now, Minato and Shikaku are busy with matters concerning their shared destiny, and no one can share the burden for him throughout the entire course.

Moreover, this was done with the presence of Koharu Utatane, advisor Homura Mitokado, and the Third Hokage personally attending the hearing.

"Cough cough."

Nishikawa Toru cleared his throat and picked up the list on the table.

"Those present today are mainly the initial staff of Konoha Express. There are more than 20 practitioners who can already use the Flying Thunder Formation Technique independently, more than 60 who are receiving relevant training, and the rest are responsible for node inspection, guarding, registration, communication, cargo handover and daily maintenance."

"So today's lesson isn't about teaching you how to learn space-time ninjutsu overnight."

His gaze swept across the auditorium.

"The recruitment and training of space ninjutsu talents has been underway for some time. Today's focus is on letting everyone know what they should do before a shipment arrives, during its transmission, and after it is delivered to the recipient."

"Let me clarify one point first."

He put down the list and glanced at everyone.

"Konoha Speed ​​Run is not a ninja version of a carriage company, nor can anyone who learns the Flying Thunder Formation immediately start working."

"Currently, more than 20 casters are able to use the Flying Thunder Array technique independently, and more than 60 new recruits are receiving follow-up training. Among you, some are responsible for teleportation, some for verification, some for node guarding, and some for registration and handover."

"Whichever task you are responsible for, it is an extremely important job."

Nishikawa Tetsu raised his hand and tapped on the podium.

"Starting today, everyone will work according to the same procedures. Who is responsible for what, when to hand over responsibilities, and who to contact if problems arise must all be written down. We cannot rely on how well we know each other, nor can we rely on a leader making decisions on a whim."

"Let's start with the most important question." Nishikawa Tetsu picked up the chalk and wrote a few words on the blackboard behind him.

What steps are involved in delivering a shipment from a warehouse to its destination?

Soon, someone raised their hand.

He was a young ninja from the Hyuga clan, sitting upright with a calm gaze.

"Confirm the goods, confirm the route, confirm the receiving location, and then the caster will complete the teleportation."

"Not bad, it seems you did your homework, but it's not complete."

Nishikawa Tetsu added a few more items at the end.

"Registration, inspection, packaging, numbering, handover, confirmation of receipt, and backtracking after any abnormalities occur."

"If it's military equipment or medicine, we also need to add authorization verification and storage condition checks. What if the grain gets damp? What if the medicine is at the wrong temperature? What if the armory is temporarily sealed off? We can't wait until the goods are halfway through delivery to start considering these things."

He turned around and drew a line under the word "speed".

"We're in the logistics business, not a teleportation performance. Teleportation is just one part of the process, and it's the most expensive and restrictive part."

The young ninjas in the auditorium, who had initially been somewhat excited, gradually became serious.

Many of them came specifically for the Flying Thunder Formation, a space-time ninjutsu that sounds exciting.

For many, the most appealing aspect of the Konoha Express is that it shortens a journey that would normally take several days or even more than ten days to a very short time.

But judging from what Nishikawa Tetsu said, the truly complicated things seem to happen before and after the teleportation.
