As dawn broke in the east, Naruto quietly left the daimyo's mansion and went outside the city to supervise the transportation of grain while the wife and mother of the new daimyo, Enichikyu, were still asleep.
As for love, just give it to a good woman.
As for the chaotic circle around the daimyo, just play with it and there is no need to linger on it.
The main city of the Fire Country is really not small, probably two to three times the size of Konoha, so it took Naruto a little time to get out of the city.
"Captain, the food needed for the war has been gathered."
As soon as he arrived at the ninja gathering point at the south gate of the city, Hyuga Neji came up and handed him a list.
It is clearly written above that the food collected so far has actually exceeded part of the original demand.
After taking a quick look at the food piled on the carts and making a rough estimate, he found that it was almost enough.
However, the speed of collection was so fast that Naruto could not help but frown: "Don't tell me that these grains were looted from civilians."
Ningci shook his head and explained: "How could we possibly plunder the civilians' food? This is contributed by the officials in the city. Every household has a lot of food stored."
"Yeah." Naruto nodded. That's right. They came to the daimyo and local rich man of the Land of Fire to ask for food.
It is not to oppress the common people.
If the master has no food, he will suffer for a while at most, but if the common people have no food, it will be a serious problem that may cost their lives.
Watching the bags of food being loaded onto the car, Naruto gave another instruction: "After we leave, you and Sasuke must take good care of the Daimyo and not let his sugar-coated bullets corrupt his mind."
This sentence is equivalent to assigning a task. Next, the task of guarding the daimyo in the main city of the Fire Country will be temporarily handed over to Sasuke and Neji.
Sasuke is quite powerful and Neji is calm, so they are a pretty good combination.
"Can't I go back to Konoha?" Sasuke said unhappily, "I want to send Brother Ebisu home, and I also want to go to the battlefield to fight the Kumo Ninja."
Sending Ebisu home was fake, but wanting to show off on the battlefield was real.
Naruto looked at him like he was an idiot, "If both you and I leave, who will be in charge of the food here?"
After hearing this, Sasuke had no choice but to shut up.
Now, except for him and Naruto, there are only Chunins here. If the two of them leave, maybe a few Jonins will come and kill them all.
"Don't worry, I sent someone yesterday to notify the village to send some jonin over, and you can go back then." After Naruto finished speaking, he turned and left.
After watching Naruto go away, Neji turned around and held out his hand to Sasuke: "Looks like we'll have to spend some time together. We'll be companions from now on, Sasuke."
"Tsk!" Sasuke didn't even move his eyes, and put his hands in his pockets: "Only Naruto is qualified to talk to me about companions, you are too weak."
Naruto is stronger than you, but not as arrogant as you.
I haven't yet disliked the fact that Asuma slept with you, but you already disliked me for being weak. You're really a child with cerebral palsy.
Neji felt a surge of anger in his heart, but he was indeed no match for Sasuke, so he had to suppress his anger and curse in his heart.
Seeing the two of them not getting along, the naturally hot-blooded Xiao Li stepped forward to dissuade them: "Haha, stop arguing. You two are both handsome, just like brothers. What's there to argue about?"
"Who is his brother?"
"If you can't speak, don't speak!"
The two people who were disgusted with each other spoke in unison, and Xiao Li was a little confused.
He thought to himself, this is just like being brothers.

There was a lot of snow and the ground was slippery, making it difficult for loaded vehicles to move.
It was exactly two weeks later when Naruto led three hundred ninjas to escort supplies from the main city of the Fire Country back to Konoha, which happened to be the first day of the new year.
Although there was a war going on in the village, the streets were still decorated with red and colorful lights, making it very lively.
The ninjas traveling together all had happy faces. They said that when they were young, they looked forward to this day the most. They would use their lucky money to buy some fireworks and firecrackers and play with their friends in the streets and alleys.
"Captain Naruto, you are still young now, so you should be looking forward to the new year." asked a talkative ninja.
Naruto shook his head and smiled, without saying anything more.
He had never had any concept of festivals, whether it was the Mid-Autumn Festival and Spring Festival in his previous life, or the New Year in this life.
It's all days spent alone, no different from the past.
It was only on October 10th that Mao Yue Xi Yan came to celebrate his birthday with him, which left a deep impression on him.
"I don't know how Xiyan is doing now. Is she in danger on the battlefield?"
Naruto was a little concerned about Uzuki Yugao and didn't want anything to happen to her.
I hope she is doing well, and next year, Naruto will celebrate her birthday to repay his kindness.
Bless her, God of this world.
Naruto clasped his hands together, said a prayer for Yugao, and then led the team to continue heading towards the Hokage Building.
In half an hour, the supplies were delivered to Jingyin, who counted them personally, and then the team was disbanded to give them a day off.
The war had been going on for almost a month, and they could only be given one day off.
Those who returned today will have to participate in the drawing of lots tomorrow. A small number of people will stay in Konoha to guard, and most of them, including Naruto, will need to transport supplies to the front line and then stay at the front line to participate in the battle.
People like them might never come back after they leave.
"Nine hundred and ninety-eight, nine hundred and ninety-nine"
Miss Jingyin was counting with a booklet in her hand. After counting one car, she went to the next one, moving her long white legs and making a "clicking" sound with her high heels.
Noticing that Naruto beside her was in a daze, she turned her head to look at him and asked casually, "What are you thinking about?"
"leg!"
Naruto stared at Shizune's exposed calves and ankles, and without hesitation stated what he saw as the answer.
To be honest, Shizune is indeed very beautiful. Although her figure is not as visually impactful as Tsunade's, her legs are even more beautiful than Tsunade's.
She is 168cm tall and, like Tsunade, only wears high heels. She has a slender and graceful figure, delicate features and fair skin. She can definitely be called a "beauty".
That is, the black kimono he was wearing and the short bun with a rustic feel were not the styles Naruto liked.
The afternoon breeze mixed with fine snowflakes blew onto Jingyin's hair on her forehead. She gently touched it and it felt a little wet.
"What legs did you say? Do you want to eat ham?"
"No."
"What legs are you talking about?"
This time, the letter about Naruto stabilizing the situation in the Daimyo's mansion had already arrived, so Shizune gave him a lot of points in her heart. After reporting the matter to Lady Tsunade, Tsunade said that if Naruto wanted anything after returning to the village, she would try her best to satisfy him if she could give it.
That's why Jingyin asked.
But what she didn't know was that the cheeky Naruto would actually say:
"I'm thinking about the legs of beautiful sisters. If I could have a queen's legs, I could play with them for a whole year without getting tired of them."
"No, not a whole year, give me ten years!"
Hearing this, Jingyin subconsciously lowered her head to look at her long, straight, white legs, and her fair face suddenly turned a little red.
"Little bastard, now that Lady Tsunade is away, have you become a tease to me?"
Since she often saw Naruto taking advantage of Tsunade, Shizune has always had a low opinion of Naruto in her heart. She is the woman who is most immune to the young Naruto.
When she heard that the little guy actually teased her, she didn't give him a good look at all.
"I'm telling you, I won't tolerate you like Lady Tsunade did."
"." Naruto looked at Shizune who suddenly reacted so strongly and the corners of his mouth twitched.
What’s the matter? Are you the only beautiful sister in the world?
"Pu Xinnv, you are so shameless. I was obviously talking about Tsunade-sama, not you."
"What did you say?"
"Uzumaki Naruto, stop right there!"
How could Naruto just stand there like an idiot? He didn't even turn around even when Shizune was shouting at him from behind.
On the first day of the new year, give yourself a day off and go home to catch up on some sleep.
Thinking this, Naruto headed towards his home.

front.
The Hidden Cloud Village camp.
The Raikage walked into the temporary meeting room holding a letter.
The high-end combat forces of the Hidden Cloud Village gathered around the sand table, including Killer Bee, the two Yumotos, Samui, Darui and dozens of elite jonin.
The entire conference hall was extremely crowded.
But it is still a lot emptier than it was at the beginning.
"In the first month of the war, six more jonin died." Killer Bee sighed.
In fact, he doesn't really want to fight. Instead of fighting, Killer Bee would rather find the Jinchūriki from various countries to communicate with them.
But the eldest brother Raikage is an ambitious man. His eldest brother insisted on fighting, so Killer Bee had to obey his eldest brother's wishes.
In contrast to him, the other Jinchūriki of the Hidden Cloud Village, the two Yubokuto, was consistent with the Raikage.
"Kirabi, don't say discouraging words."
Moving my eyes, I saw the tall Erwei walking towards me by the wooden man.
She has a delicate appearance and a dignified temperament. Her straight beige hair is tied into a pigtail that reaches her waist. She puts one hand on her waist. Even the tight combat uniform cannot completely restrain her bust.
If Yumu Ren could let go, perhaps her figure could rival Samui's.
Although she looks arrogant, she is usually gentle when she is in the village. As a friend, Kirabi has a good impression of her.
Unfortunately, her attitude towards war is as decisive and resolute as that of her elder brother Raikage.
