Hinata Tomari frowned slightly. He saw the moment Shimura Doku looked up, and the malice in his eyes was barely concealed.

In Shimura Doku's three-white eyes, the pupils were small, fierce, and menacing.

Hyuga Tomari suppressed his urge to act as a peacemaker again. Forget it, offending the Shimura clan would be suicide.

On this front line, Danzo Shimura held the power of life and death.

Any ninja that Danzo's advisors disliked could be eliminated with a mission involving unclear information.

Intelligence is crucial on the battlefield.

The genin squad encountered the Iwa ninja squad, and their chances of survival were slim.

If a Chunin squad encounters a Jonin within an Iwagakure squad, they are doomed.

When a Jonin leads a team, if they encounter an Iwa ninja squad with two Jonin members, they will either turn the tables and become famous, or suffer a miserable death.

Hyuga no Tomari dared not offend the Shimura clan.

He looked at Uchiha Ryo; this child from the Uchiha clan was truly brave.

Uchiha Ryo thought to himself, "What's there to be afraid of? Anyway, the Uchiha clan and the Shimura clan are sworn enemies, and it's only a matter of time before they break off relations."

The conflict between the two sides is exceptionally sharp.

The fundamental conflict recently lies with Uchiha Kagami.

The Uchiha clan knew that Danzo had assassinated Uchiha Kagami, and Danzo knew that the Uchiha clan knew that he had assassinated Uchiha Kagami.

Both sides were perfectly aware of the situation.

The conflicts will become more acute in the future, and Uchiha Ryo has no intention of currying favor with Danzo and becoming the next Uchiha Shisui or Uchiha Itachi.

Shimura almost gritted his teeth as he said, "Five months from now, only I will be left..."

He swallowed the rest of his words, straining his jaw and throat muscles with great difficulty.

Then, Shimura Doku walked forward while glancing sideways at Uchiha Ryo and the other two, as if trying to memorize each of their faces.

Shimura's two teammates, looking distressed, hurriedly followed behind.

It's too difficult to be a teammate of Shimura alone; the atmosphere in the team is always tense.

The two looked at Uchiha Ryo's teammates. Wasn't Uchiha Ryo a notorious trash-talker? Why did these two look like they were in pretty good shape?

After watching Shimura walk away alone, Hyuga Tomari said, "Let's go, I'll take you to the command tent."

Every new squad is summoned by the commander-in-chief.

Upon entering the command tent, Uchiha Ryo saw two people sitting behind a long table and thought to himself that it would be a miracle if he had any advantage in the war against the Land of Waterfall.

The commander-in-chief was Danzo Shimura, and the deputy commander was the young Shikaku Nara.

It's not that these two aren't strong, but they're far from being a match for Onoki and the two Jinchūriki of Iwagakure.

Sakumo Hatake committed suicide, Tsunade now suffers from hemophobia, Orochimaru is conducting experiments with fanaticism, and Jiraiya frequently disappears.

In the Land of Waterfall's war against Iwagakure, and in the Land of Hot Springs' war against Kumogakure, Konoha couldn't muster enough Kage-level ninjas.

It's unimaginable how bad things would become for Konoha if all four major ninja villages declared war on it simultaneously.

Danzo glanced down at the scroll on the table.

The secret unit monitored the entire camp, and every move at the front was reported and sent to his desk.

At the camp gate, Shimura Doku clashed with Uchiha Ryo and two others before leaving the camp to carry out his mission.

Every detail of the conflict was recorded, even the expressions of the people involved were accurately described.

As Shimura Danzo looked at the records, he saw that both Uchiha Rin and Mitarashi Anko had used Hidden Shadow Snake Hand.

Actually, among this year's students, the only person Orochimaru wanted to mentor was Mitarashi Anko. For some reason, Orochimaru ended up adding another person, Uchiha Ryo.

Mitarashi Anko's father was Orochimaru's former subordinate, and after his death, he became increasingly special in Orochimaru's memories.

After Nawaki's death, Orochimaru became even more sinister, and he gave all his human-like emotions to Nawaki.

Anko Mitarashi's father had the advantage of knowing Orochimaru earlier.

It's not surprising that Mitarashi Anko was able to learn Hidden Shadow Snake Hand; she inherited it from her father.

Uchiha Ryo learned Hidden Shadow Snake Hand from Mitarashi Anko.

Shimura Doku still doesn't understand Orochimaru. After Nawaki's death, Orochimaru wouldn't care about the life or death of his students.

Orochimaru was only allowed to lead a small team each year after strong requests from him and Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Orochimaru couldn't go to the front lines; during wartime, one can't just do nothing.

Orochimaru would not waste any extra energy on these three teams unless they survived five months and proved their worth.

Danzo Shimura glanced at the three people in front of him. He wasn't in a hurry to deal with the others, but Mitarashi Anko, Orochimaru's true handpicked person, had to die.

If Uchiha Ryo knew Danzo's thoughts, he would definitely feel wronged.

Even in this state, you still don't want to kill me first. Do you look down on me?

Danzo said, "Mitarashi Anko, I appoint you as squad leader. Come tomorrow to collect your mission scroll. Now, you may leave."

The three of them walked out of the tent in a daze.

Uchiha Ryo said, "Advisor Danzo used 'Get out' in the end, not 'Get out' or 'Get out of here.' It seems that Lord Danzo is still quite gentle."

Mitarashi Anko is having a headache. How did she end up with such a teammate? Why does Danzo seem to dislike them so much?

A Nara clan ninja, Nara Nagatomo, approached the three and said, "Mitarashi Anko's team, I'll take you to your tent."

Mitarashi Anko finally felt a little better, at least she had her own tent.

Upon arriving at a tent, Nara Nagaman left.

Mitarashi Anko opened the tent and saw some personal belongings inside.

She quickly turned around and chased after Nara Nagatomo: "Hello, are you sure you're not mistaken? There are other ninja's things in the tent."

"That's right, three squads lived in that tent, and they all perished. You can do whatever you want with those items; you can keep them or leave them for the next squad."

Mitarashi Anko's mood became even more depressed.

So they all died, which is why all their belongings were left behind?

Isn't there anything normal?

She longed to be like Kurenai Yuhi, with her father leading her own Jonin squad and carrying out small missions in the village to find cats and dogs.

She turned her head, feeling even more upset.

Uchiha Ryo carried a woman's underwear on a kunai and walked towards her.

"Captain! Nara Nagatomo said these personal belongings are all ours now. Do you think this bra's cup size will fit you?"

"Uchiha! Ryo! Throw it away!"

Uchiha Ryo glanced at Anko's still-developing body, then looked at the underwear on the kunai. It was at least two cup sizes too small. Oh well, if she kept it, she'd have to keep it for another three or four years.

Mitarashi Anko entered the tent, set up the curtain separating men and women, and lay on the wooden plank, staring blankly at the tent ceiling.

At this moment, my longing for my father reached its peak.

If my father were here, would everything be different?

Just as tears were about to fall, she heard a sound from the other side of the curtain.

"I'm going to find the Uchiha clan members at the front lines. You guys go to sleep first, don't wait for me."

Uchiha Ryo left the tent, and Mitarashi Anko frowned.

Why is he fearless? Isn't he worried about the danger of tomorrow's mission? Isn't he afraid of the regulations and curfews on the front lines that prevent him from wandering around? He...

"Fine," Mitarashi Anko closed her eyes, wiping away the tears that had welled up in her eyes. "Uchiha Ryo is different; I can't compare him. He's a lunatic."
