In the meeting room of the Hokage Building, it was the same group of people as last time, but Solar Foot was added.
"The commander of this expedition will be Solar Foot, who has any objections?" Tsunade glanced around, everyone was smiling, and no one raised any objections, even Danzō was sitting there calmly.
"Very well, about the candidate for the deputy commander, Solar Foot, you say it." Tsunade nodded at Solar Foot.
Hyuga Hiashi's face was serious as he looked around at the elders. Everyone was very familiar with each other, but the most unfamiliar one was Danzo. He didn't have much contact with him, but he wasn't completely unrelated. Many of the Hyuga Clan members were in the Root.
"Since I'm going to be the commander this time, I hope that Hatake Kakashi will be the vice commander. As for the source of troops, I need a group of elites. This time, I'll be providing 300 elites. As for the rest of the main force, I hope that everyone will support me." Hiashi said in a low voice.
The meaning of the so-called elite is very simple, they need ninjas who come from clans, not those who have no background or background.
The First Shinobi World War was similar to the Warring States Period, and it was a struggle between the major ninja clans. In the Second World War, the ninja clans suffered heavy casualties, even the Senju and Uchiha clans suffered heavy losses, so the civilian ninjas became active.
In the Third World War, the civilian ninjas and many ninjas from small clans became the main combat force, but it has to be admitted that the real elites are the ninjas cultivated by the major clans. The civilian ninjas are either unknown for a lifetime, or rely on their unparalleled talent to rise to the sky and leave the ranks of the civilian ninjas.
This expedition is Solar Foot's first time as the commander of an army. In the previous three wars, he only commanded one side of the battle, and it was not his turn to be the commander of the entire army. Now that he has the opportunity to show his strength, he naturally doesn't want to lead a group of shrimp soldiers to the battlefield.
After a few breaths of silence, the elders nodded and agreed. The elders who can enter the elder group basically represent a big clan or several big clans, including most of the power of Kiba, their promises are naturally effective.
Hiashi smiled and chatted with the elders. He agreed to visit Konoha in private. Tsunade was very satisfied. Hiashi seemed to have made the right choice. At least, no one in Konoha would try to trip him up.
"Solar Foot, I will give you three days to organize the troops, and after three days, Shihisa, you are responsible for handling the logistics, all the materials will be delivered to Solar Foot within two days." Tsunade ordered sternly.
"Yes, Hokage-Sama."
… ….
Hyuga.
"Father-sama, are you going to perform a mission?" Hanoi looked at Solar Foot who was wearing a green vest, and her eyes were shining. In her memory, she has never seen her father dressed like this. Hinata was also surprised. Although she was older than Hanoi, she also has never seen Solar Foot wearing a combat suit.
"Yes, it is a very important mission. I will not be at home during this time, as the heirs of the Main Clan, you can't lose the face of the Hyuga Clan, do you hear me?" Hiashi crossed his arms in front of his chest. His hair was tied up, and he was wearing a vest over his upper body. He was wearing a pair of black trousers, and he looked very energetic.
"Understood, Father-sama." Hinata and Hanoi both agreed.
"If there is anything you don't understand, remember to ask Elder Pegasus … You can go now." Solar Foot's expression softened, but he was used to having a black face these past few years. Now, even if he wanted to say something nice, he couldn't say it for a long time. He could only wave his hand and let Hinata and Hanoi leave.
"How long will it take this time?" After the two daughters left, Hyuga Kaori walked in. Looking at Solar Foot's attire that she hadn't seen for a long time, her eyes showed a look of nostalgia.
"It's hard to say, this mission is not easy, it may be fast, or it may take some time. In short, you can stay at home and take care of Hinata and Hanoi, you don't have to worry about the mission." Solar Foot's tone was very gentle, only in front of his wife would he show the softness under the tough exterior.
"I know, be careful when you are on the mission." Hyuga Kaori stepped forward and reached out her hand to help Solar Foot tidy up his collar.
… ….
Outside of Kiba Village, there was a huge open space that was newly opened up. Tents were set up everywhere, but it didn't seem to be messy at all, instead, it gave people a feeling that it was very orderly.
Ninjas that were wearing masks occupied the northern corner of the campsite, floating in and out of the campsite like ghosts, not making any movements at all. Most of the remaining tents were still empty, and no one was stationed in those tents.
"Gen's actions are really fast!" Solar Foot stood at the entrance of the campsite and said to Kakashi who was beside him. Behind the two of them, there were more than 600 ninjas that were wearing green armor. They all left the village in batches and gathered together under Solar Foot's command.
"Not bad, Gen's elites are indeed worthy of their reputation." Kakashi looked at the two Gen's ninjas that were guarding the entrance of the campsite. After saluting towards him and Solar Foot, the two Gen's ninjas opened up a path and quietly retreated to the side.
Solar Foot looked at the newly built tents thoughtfully. From the looks of it, these tents were built by Gen's people. He looked at the Gen's ninjas beside him and said, "Go and get your leader to come and see me. I have other arrangements for the task of guarding the entrance of the campsite."
The two Gen's ninjas didn't hesitate and immediately left after receiving the order. Their figures flashed as they rushed towards the northern corner of the campsite.
Solar Foot and Kakashi immediately began to make arrangements for the ninjas under their command. Everyone was quickly assigned a place to stay and a task. The campsite that was originally empty immediately became lively, but there wasn't any noise, just a little more liveliness.
Solar Foot and Kakashi were sitting inside the largest tent in the center of the campsite. Solar Foot seemed to be very energetic, but Kakashi's eyes were drooping, and he seemed to be very weak. As the vice marshal, the pressure on him wasn't light.
"Solar Foot -sama, the Anbu is here." A chunin that was guarding outside reported loudly.
"Let him in." Solar Foot threw down the name list in his hand and looked towards the entrance. A Anbu wearing a blue patterned mask and a white trench coat walked in. Most of the ordinary ninjas didn't know about the existence of Gen, they only thought that Gen was from the Anbu.
"Solar Foot -sama, Kakashi -sama, subordinate greets the two commanders." Gen's ninja kneeled down on one knee and greeted.
"En … take off your mask." Solar Foot stared at Gen's ninja in front of him suspiciously. This ninja feels very familiar! Kakashi's eyes flickered, seemingly having met Gen's ninja before. He didn't have any proof, it was just a kind of intuition.
"Eh … there isn't a need for that, right?"
"I ordered you to take off your mask, are you trying to disobey the commander's order?" Solar Foot's mouth curled up, revealing a playful smile.
After remaining silent for a moment, Gen's ninja gave in and took off his mask, revealing an exceptionally familiar face.
"As expected, it is you, you bastard." Solar Foot scolded.
