The Shadow of Konoha

Ninja is a combat profession that places great emphasis on agility and speed, and extremely emphasizes attack attributes. This one-sidedness can be seen from the evolution of their combat uniforms. Taking Konoha as an example, during the chaos and the early days of the village's establishment, the ninjas, including the Hokage, were covered in protective gear. After the second generation Hokage, the ninja's armor became simple and clear. By the middle and late period of the third generation Hokage's reign, there was no decent protective gear on the ninjas. At most, they would only tie an arm guard on their forearms.

This change may also be related to the change in the overall quality of ninjas. Although there were a few ninjas who were born later, in general, the ninjas were "worse than the previous generation."

In any case, after the establishment of the ninja village system, the living environment of the ninjas was much better than the previous war-torn era. Killings were no longer as frequent and brutal, so the ninjas were not as powerful.

For Hanyu, the new armor was not that difficult to get used to. It would have been great if the war had not added just a little extra weight to his body.

However, war is never that simple.

The next day after receiving the members' information, Hanyu gathered his team members at the training ground .

When he arrived there at the agreed time, he saw three figures waiting there from afar... Well, the members always arrive before the captain, and this scene made Hanyu suddenly realize that he seemed to be a "leader" in some way.

Well, the Hokage is only the village chief, and as the village chief's subordinate's subordinate, Hanyu is nothing more than a leader. He hurried a few steps, walked in front of the people, and then said, "Good morning, everyone."

What was a little embarrassing was that no one was willing to respond to his words. The three people just nodded and greeted Hanyu.

The three people in front of him were about the same age as Hanyu, with a difference of at most one or two years. Facing Hanyu's greeting, their reactions were somewhat silent... It was not that they had any special opinions about Hanyu as the captain, but ninjas who could have a good conversation on their first meeting were definitely a minority of the minority. Most ninjas only knew how to fight and were not good at talking.

A small number of ninjas are not good at talking and fighting.

It seems that we still have to take time to get along with each other... After actually meeting these people, Hanyu realized that he had taken things for granted before, so he immediately adjusted his words, skipped the meaningless greetings, and said directly, "This time I called everyone together, firstly, as teammates of the same team, we should at least know each other; secondly, I want to inform everyone that we will set off for the front line of River Country in three days. Everyone should be prepared in advance, and no delay is allowed... This is an order passed down from the Konoha Operations Headquarters, please pay close attention."

"I have already learned a little about your situation through some written summaries. Relatively speaking, you may know nothing about me... That's not to say, at least you should have known my name before. However, if I introduce myself in more detail..."

"I am a ninjutsu-type ninja who is proficient in several elemental techniques. My taijutsu is not bad, and I know nothing about illusion techniques. I am better at compound ninjutsu."

Although the chakra endurance problem has not been well solved.

"I have carried out high-level A-level missions and achieved success far beyond expectations."

Even though he was just a bystander during the trip to Kumo.

"I was also cordially received by the Second Hokage and received his praise."

The Second Hokage gave him a thumbs up on his grave before he died.

Hanyu's self-introduction was half-hidden and half-revealed, and his description of himself was somewhat exaggerated. It seemed that he wanted to reassure the three members as much as possible and establish his prestige at the same time.

"In general, I haven't been a ninja for long, and my abilities are limited, but... from the first impression, we are not that kind of strong team. We are just the most numerous and the most mediocre team in the war. So, from now on, I will work hard to prevent the small team from becoming a cannon fodder team."

"First impression...how do you judge the strength of a team?" someone couldn't help but ask.

"How should I put it? Well, the strong team, at least in terms of hair color, is very visual. Generally speaking, the standard configuration of the strong team is composed of a member with blond hair, a member with white hair, a member with black hair, and a member who is dispensable to make up the numbers. Relatively speaking, our team is too plain and has no visual impact at all."

"…"

This statement made the three team members look at each other in bewilderment. They just thought that Hanyu was making an inappropriate joke . However, only Hanyu himself knew that what he said was true and his theories were verified by practical experience...

Compared to those visual kei teams, a team like theirs with all black hair, aren't they just a typical trash team?

"Okay, now that everyone has gotten to know each other, let me remind you again not to forget the departure time… Now, disband." Hanyu announced the end of this brief meeting of the team.

He shook his head. The newly formed team had no tacit understanding among the members. A team that can really cooperate well should have members who are at least in sync with each other.

Hanyu knew that if his new team wanted to cooperate properly, it would definitely take time to hone their skills. Unfortunately, they didn't have enough time and could only train in actual combat on the battlefield.

In fact, apart from the simplest data explanation, Hanyu is quite satisfied with the composition of his team members. If their abilities can be coordinated, the combat effectiveness of this team and the role it can play on the battlefield should definitely not be described as "small fry".

Renjuro, Nara Nagisa and Yasanagi, these are the names of the three members of the Hanyu team. In terms of gender, there are two men and one woman, and in terms of ability, they complement each other and have their own characteristics.

There is no need to say much about Nara. He is a member of the Nara clan of Konoha and a user of the shadow binding technique. His ability is the kind that can play a huge role on the battlefield.

The second male ninja, Renjuro, is a reconnaissance ninja. He has a certain long-distance detection ability... maybe not as good as Byakugan's abnormal long-distance, large-scale reconnaissance ability, but it is already rare to have a member who can amplify the team's search capabilities. After all, the more transparency in intelligence, the more protection there will be on the battlefield.

The last one, Yasanagi, is a kunoichi with long-range attack capabilities. In the ninja combat distance classification, within five meters is close range, five to ten meters is medium range, and more than ten meters is long range. Yasanagi long range is even farther, she can even launch an attack from fifty meters away.

It seems that a team has output, control and reconnaissance. Except for the lack of medical units, Hanyu found that he had nothing to complain about... and in this period, medical ninjas will not be assigned to the team-level organization, but will be concentrated for use.

The great ninja who promoted revolutionary progress in Konoha's medical technology and advocated the deployment of medical ninjas to the team level was completely defeated by Hanyu a few months ago.

…

Three days later, Hanyu left a note for Sansho, and then without alerting anyone, he gathered with his team and rushed to the front line of the Ninja World War according to the established plan.
