Chapter 140 Support is coming

Early the next morning, Kakugi led his team of four to the frontline defense area.

After a day of cleaning up the battlefield, the corpses of the ninjas who died everywhere were gone.

But the blood that dyed the soil black and the smell of rust in the air still lingered.

The entire defense zone had an aura of death.

From a perspective that no one can see, there are countless innocent souls floating here who are unwilling to leave.

Kadomu sighed, shouted "Follow me", and rushed in at the lead.

The entire defense area is very large. Although there are other patrolling ninjas to assist, they still have to actively search and find out if there are any enemies sneaking in in time.

Time flies so fast, more than a week has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Team Kakugi went on five missions and dealt with four teams of middle genin.

After interrogation, it was found that some of them had sneaked in to carry out sabotage missions, and some were here to explore intelligence.

The other mobile unit that changed guard with Kakugi was led by Mimura Hamaki, and its record was similar to Kakugi's.

No big fish have been found yet.

After the last battle, Iwagakure also suffered a lot of losses, and there was a master like Golden Flash sitting in Konoha.

At present, Iwagakure is still mainly exploring.

On the other side, Namikaze Minato stood up and stretched.

Since becoming the frontline commander, Minato has spent more time sitting at his desk than standing.

Although he had just been attacked and was new to the job, Minato still urgently needed someone to help him share the burden.

Minato sent a letter to the Third Generation before, asking for a few people, and the Third Generation agreed.

I don’t know if these people have arrived.

When the curtain of the command post was opened, the sunlight shone on Minato's face, making Minato's blond hair shine particularly brightly.

Minato closed his eyes and raised his head, fully enjoying this moment of rest and the warm illumination.

"Ah~~~, Minato-sama really knows how to enjoy it. No wonder it's called Golden Flash..."

A wild voice sounded, speaking sinisterly.

"Ah, that's not a good thing to say, hmm... Puff!"

A honest voice next to him wanted to retort, but couldn't help but laugh.

At this time, a deep voice sounded, calm and magnetic.

"Don't say that, Jaw. Minato-sama's identity is different now."

"Huh?" Jia snorted in a heavy nasal voice, and then said in great surprise: "Zhiwei? When did you come?"

Zhiwei paused and answered in a very serious tone: "I have been here since the beginning of Konoha, Jaw."

"Uh...puff!"

That honest voice wanted to laugh again, and desperately covered his mouth with his hands. I just couldn’t hold it in anyhow.

Minato opened his eyes, an uncontrollable smile spreading across his face.

The three familiar figures in front of him were the helpers he asked for from the Third Generation, Minato's former teammates.

Inuzuka Jubi, Akimichi Donato and Aburame Shimi.

Minato looked at the three people in front of him happily, and a thousand words finally came together into one sentence: "You are here, haha!"

Taking a few quick steps forward, Minato hugged them warmly.

Inuzuka Jaw grinned widely: "Of course! If Minato-sama has something to do, of course I will come! Haha!"

"I heard that Minato-sama killed fifty Iwa ninja alone. That was really impressive! Haha!"

Inuzuka Jaw, who was riding on the dog, was calling Minato-sama, smiling wildly, but his eyes when looking at Minato were particularly gentle.

During the battle with Kumogakure, Inuzuka Jaw was the eldest ninja in Minato's team, and he had always treated Minato as a younger brother.

"Don't do this, Jaw. Minato-sama is now the frontline commander. You need to help him maintain his dignity."

Aburame Zhiwei adjusted her sunglasses and said calmly.

This time Inuzuka Jaw did not argue with Aburame Shimi again, but replied seriously: "Don't worry, Shimi. I know."

Aburame Zhiwei nodded slightly and said nothing. He hugged Minato briefly, then stepped back and "automatically became invisible".

"Thank you for coming, Zhiwei." Minato smiled and said, "Also, it's okay, Brother Jaw."

Minato turned around and hugged Akimichi Dontou again, trying hard to hold his hands together. Minato smiled and said, "You're plump again, Dontou!"

"Haha, Minato-sama is still discerning. I'm just a little plump, haha!"

"Haha! You guys have really helped me a lot by coming here!"

The next day, after finishing the day's task, Kazuoki was surprised to find that it was no longer Misura Hamaki who came to change the guard.

Instead, he was a middle-aged man with oil paint on his face, a wild hairstyle, and riding a big dog.

The uncle didn't see anyone else, he laughed heartily and said: "You must be Umino Kakugi! I heard Xiaozhao talking about you, haha!"

"My name is Inuzuka Jaw, and I am Littlepaw's uncle. Thank you for saving Littlepaw on the battlefield of Kawakuni, boy!"

Kadomu chuckled: "It's nothing, this is what should be done."

"Anyway, I still have to thank you. I'm leaving, kid!" Inuzuka Jaw thanked him again.

"Yeah, stay safe, uncle!"

"Haha! Don't worry, kid! My uncle has a very good nose!"

Inuzuka chuckled, confidently and optimistically heading towards the defense zone, followed by four or five subordinate ninjas.

The two teams walked staggered, and Kadomu Ban was on the way back.

Inuzuka Jaw, Kakugi had also heard of him. He was a former teammate of Namikaze Minato, and he had made outstanding achievements in the battle with Kumogakure.

It is actually more appropriate for him to replace Misura Hazaki to perform the mission.

After all, the Inuzukas are all good at tracking.

Mimura Yemaki is still more suitable to assist the commander and do some auxiliary coordination and staff work.

It can also be seen that Namikaze Minato gradually has more cards in his hand.

It should be that support from the village is gradually in place.

That's fine. After the last battle, Konohagakure's combat power was indeed a bit weak compared to Iwagakure.

The grass ninja looked like he couldn't count on anything.

After running for about an hour, Kakugi and others returned to the camp.

Everyone returned to the barracks at the same time, fell into bed and went to sleep.

Kakugi persisted and gave a brief report to Minato, then lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

The troops in the camp were still too nervous. They were on duty for 24 hours in a state of high mental stress, which was very tiring for the still-developing children in the Jiaomu class.

It was at this moment that Kakugi acted more like a child over 10 years old.

After a nice sleep, when Kakugi woke up, it was already time for lunch.

He opened his sleepy eyes and looked around. He was the only one left in the room.

A bunch of heartless things!

Kadomu picked up the dinner plate and rushed towards the cafeteria like flying.

It's late, so I can only eat dry food!

There were only a few broken tables in the entire cafeteria, which could barely bear the food buckets brought up by the chef.

All the ninjas were sitting on the floor, eating with big mouthfuls.
