Hiding in the sand, splitting into many places, starting with Arkham

Naruto world.

The Land of Rain, known as the Land of Weeping.

If Shimizu were to explain it from a geographical and climatic perspective, it would be because the oceanic monsoons blowing from several other directions are blocked here.

The southwest of the Land of Rain, bordering the Land of Wind, happens to be a huge mountain range, extending all the way south, enclosing nearly half of the Land of Wind's territory.

In the north of the Land of Rain are the high mountains and plateaus of the Land of Earth, which also block moisture.

In addition, the Land of Rain is lower in altitude than the Land of Fire and the Land of Grass to the east, which causes the moisture from the oceanic monsoons from at least two directions to eventually converge here, making the Land of Rain the "rain pole" of the ninja world.

"Finally, I have set foot on the land of the Land of Rain again."

Shimizu stepped on the muddy ground, carrying the sealed scroll on his back, and followed the main force with his teammates.

Shimizu shook his head, and while saying this, he recorded the terrain and environment of this road in his heart, and continued:

"Assuming we spend a year and invest huge costs to operate this canal, and then something like what I said happens at this time, most of the previous investment will be lost, so if you want to dig a canal, you must firmly occupy the upstream area of the river."

Ebizo and Maki looked at each other.

What this guy said makes sense.

Everyone learned those things in ninja school, why can you think of these?

Standing at the front of the team, Chiyo listened to Shimizu's words and couldn't help but secretly said: As expected of my disciple!

At this moment, Kazekage Arashi ran over from a few jumps in the distance.

"Chiyo-sama, there are no traces of ninjas in the ruins of the Gray Rain Town ahead, only a small number of refugees are living here."

"Then let's set up camp there. As for those refugees, give each of them two days' worth of rations and let them go north."

Chiyo nodded slightly.

According to intelligence, the positions of Konoha and Amegakure's strongholds are located south and east of this place, while the north is occupied by Iwagakure.

Letting Konoha come into contact with these refugees later will also allow them to know the location of Sunagakure's main force later, giving them more time to set up camp.

Killing those refugees is also an option, but it is against the rules to directly involve ordinary people in the battles between ninjas. Under the eyes of too many people, this kind of thing cannot be done openly.

If Chiyo were more ruthless, she might send a secret force to intercept and kill those refugees as soon as they were sent out.

Of course, with Konoha's abilities, even without these refugees, relying on the Yamanaka, Hyuga, Aburame, and Inuzuka ninja clans with perception and reconnaissance abilities, they can still detect the location of Sunagakure's main camp in a relatively short period of time.

These things have nothing to do with Shimizu.

Even if he is Chiyo's disciple, he is just a Chunin.

The first thing to do after arriving at the destination is to build the defensive works of the camp.

Those who can use Wind Release go to cut down trees and collect materials, those who can use Earth Release build walls, and then there are the construction of sentry towers and other works.

"Arashi, after the matter here is over, your team will be responsible for the inventory of logistics materials in the warehouse. I must entrust this matter to someone I trust enough and who has enough ability."

After Team Nine built a sentry tower under the guidance of Kazekage Arashi, they received Chiyo's order.

Shimizu knew that this was probably taking care of himself and others.

Managing logistics naturally does not require going to the front line to fight, and the safety is relatively higher.

Of course, this does not mean complete safety, because logistics has always been a key target for the enemy.

However, the logistics warehouse of the main force is the general collection station for materials from other logistics channels behind. The materials for Sunagakure's combat troops in the Land of Rain are mainly received here, so there is no need to go out to transport materials hard.

If even this place is breached, it means that Sunagakure's main force has been defeated by the enemy.

If this kind of situation really happens, let alone Shimizu and others, even this entire army is in danger of being wiped out.

The efficiency of ninjas is very high, and the defensive works were initially built in just a few hours.

Just when Shimizu had just arrived at the logistics office, he received an order from Chiyo.

Quickly count out the gas masks and antidote pills in the camp for distribution.

Because... the enemy is coming!

It's not the Konoha ninjas that were initially judged.

The visitors are Amegakure ninjas led by Hanzo of the Salamander.

As the local snakes, their news is more well-informed than Konoha.

Hanzo himself is almost at the top of the current ninja world.

The master-level ninjutsu ability, especially Water Release ninjutsu, coupled with the grandmaster-level swordsmanship, Body Flicker Technique, and powerful combat awareness, make him possess formidable combat power no less than the current Five Kage, and he is regarded as the pinnacle of the ninja world.

But the most daunting thing is Hanzo's ability to use poison.

Whether it is the salamander's poison released during breathing, or the poisonous mist released by his summoned beast, Ibuse the Salamander, it is frightening.
