Sarutobi Hiruzen did give the position of commander to Orochimaru.

"Shikaku."

Sarutobi Hiruzen continued to call out names.

"You will go to the front lines with Orochimaru and serve as the overall commander."

"Yes."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Uchiha Fugaku and Hyuga Hiashi.

Without Sarutobi Hiruzen saying anything, Uchiha Fugaku volunteered: "I will lead the Uchiha to the battlefield."

Hinata Hiashi also expressed his opinion shortly afterwards.

Other ethnic groups also expressed their views one after another.

After listening to the statements of the clan leaders, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Nara Shikaku and said, "The deployment of personnel still has to be left to you."

Shikaku nodded and accepted the task.

At this time, Danzo spoke.

"The Two-Tails and the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki of the Hidden Cloud Village are both ninjas who can perfectly control the tailed beasts. For ordinary ninjas to deal with them will only increase casualties..."

Danzo's meaningful words made Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes darken.

Amamiya Zero: “…”

I knew Danzo was holding his fart in.

As soon as Danzo opened his mouth, he knew what he was going to say.

Chapter 55 Joining the Army in Place of Father???

Danzo's words seemed to have opened up the Ren and Du meridians of Utane Koharu and Mitokado En.

The two men's eyes turned and immediately set their gaze on Sarutobi Hiruzen.

As expected by Danzo, Utatane Koharu spoke to Sarutobi Hiruzen, "The First-Daimyo used Wood Release to control the nine tailed beasts. Wood Release is arguably the most effective ninjutsu against the tailed beasts. And doesn't our village have a ninja who inherited the First-Daimyo's Wood Release?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't say anything, just silently puffed on the pipe in his hand.

Amamiya Zero: “…”

He would indeed go to the battlefield, but definitely not now.

Amamiya Rei's gaze silently passed over Kakashi who was standing in the ninja line.

There was no need for him to show up in this game, Kakashi would naturally confront Danzo for him.

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen silent, Mitomon En also spoke up and said, "For the sake of the village and to reduce ninja casualties, it is necessary to send Wood Release ninjas to the battlefield."

Danzo stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was hesitant to make a decision. A dark light flashed in his pupils, and he immediately said: "As a ninja of Konoha, you must be prepared to sacrifice yourself for Konoha!"

Almost as soon as Danzo finished speaking, Kakashi stood up. He came in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen and said seriously:

"Hokage-sama, how can Amamiya Rei's Wood Release be compared to that of the Shodaime? She has only been training as a ninja for less than a month. Sending her to the battlefield will only lead to her death. Wood Release ninjas are extremely important to Konoha, and we cannot let her die before she has grown up!"

What Kakashi said was not without reason.

Even Utane Koharu and Mitokado En hesitated.

Yes!

Is it too hasty to send that girl to the battlefield now?

The death of a Wood Release ninja is a loss that the village cannot afford.

Amamiya Rei stood behind Sarutobi Hiruzen and gave a thumbs up to Kakashi. Not bad!

Danzo stared at Kakashi, his pupils deep and cold. "The front lines are in need of ninjas right now. Compared to the village, what does the life and death of an individual mean? Even if she is a Wood Release ninja, she still has to go to the battlefield! What's the point of using her Wood Release if she doesn't use it to protect the village?"

Danzo's fighting ability is also extremely strong.

After hearing these words, Mizutomon En and Utane Koharu, the two fence-sitters, began to waver again.

Kakashi clenched his fists slightly. He glanced at Danzo and half-knelt before Sarutobi Hiruzen to plead, "Then let me go to the battlefield in place of Amamiya Rei! At least give her time to grow! Otherwise, her entry into the battlefield will only lead to more casualties!"

Danzo frowned. He had sent Amamiya Zero to the battlefield just to put her under Orochimaru's sight, making it easier to obtain her cells. But then, Kakashi showed up...

Danzo tightened his grip on his cane and let out a breath.

As a Wood Release ninja, it is only a matter of time before Amamiya Zero goes to the battlefield. This time, let her hide away. He doesn't believe that next time, anyone will come out to help her.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Kakashi in front of him, and after a moment nodded and agreed to Kakashi's request.

"You're right. Amamiya Zero is not fit to go to the battlefield yet."

Amamiya Zero applauded in his heart, well done! Kakashi!

What a good idea to join the army in place of your father!

……

The office became deserted again.

The ninjas all retreated.

Only Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was smoking, and Amamiya Rei, who was forced to breathe in secondhand smoke, were left.

"Go see Kakashi off."

"I know you really want to go."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the street outside the window and said to Amamiya Rei behind him as if he was understanding.

Amamiya Zero: “…”

Anyway, he didn't want to stay here and breathe in the secondhand smoke.

Amamiya Rei quickly left the Hokage's office.

The gate of Konoha.

Amamiya Zero hurriedly caught up with the ninja team heading to the front line for support.

"Kakashi-senpai."

Amamiya Zero caught sight of Kakashi, whose hair was like a broom.

Kakashi turned around and walked towards him.

Many ninjas at the door were saying goodbye to their families and relatives, so Amamiya Rei and Kakashi did not stand out among them.

Kakashi didn't expect that Amamiya Zero would come. He knew Amamiya Zero's work schedule and knew that Amamiya Zero should be working in the Hokage's office at this time.

"How did you come?"

Kakashi knew that Amamiya Zero must have skipped work to come and see him off, but he still couldn't help but ask.

"I wanted to say goodbye and thank you, Kakashi-senpai."

Amamiya Zero said to Kakashi.

Kakashi looked at him and looked away as if nothing had happened: "There's nothing to thank me for. I promised the teacher..."

Amamiya Zero hummed twice in his heart, but his eyes showed deep worry and reluctance: "I know Kakashi-senpai is taking care of me for Minato-sensei, but Kakashi-senpai is a very important person to me. I hope Kakashi-senpai can be safe and healthy..."

Kakashi was stunned.

He lowered his eyes, his ears burning.

It really feels good to be cared about and looked after.

It feels good to have someone to care about.

"I'll be waiting for Kakashi-senpai in Konoha."

Amamiya Zero said seriously.

Strangely enough, Kakashi felt a change in himself.

From an aimless flying bird to a wild goose with a nest to return to.

Someone tied a thread of care and concern to him, reminding him not to get hurt and to return safely.

This was a feeling Kakashi hadn't felt in a long time.

"I will."

Kakashi promised.

He seldom makes promises, but he will do his best to fulfill them.

Amamiya Rei smiled.

He raised the lunch box in his hand.

This is the delicious meal he prepared in a hurry.

Amamiya Zero didn't want Kakashi to become as thin as a skeleton when they met again.

"I just made this for you, Kakashi-senpai, to eat on the way."

"Kakashi-senpai, you must eat well and not neglect your health."

"Otherwise I'll be very worried in Konoha."

"..."

Amamiya Rei gave countless warnings and instructions.

All his words can be summed up in one sentence: "Don't lose weight."

Kakashi listened to his instructions, his heart felt like it was bathed in sunshine, warmth continuously flowing through his body.

Kakashi took the lunch box from Amamiya Zero.

His hand suddenly sank down.

All of Kakashi's emotions were suddenly overwhelmed by shock.

His pupils dilated slightly as he looked at the small lunch box in shock, a big question popping up in his eyes.

Why can an ordinary lunch box be so heavy?

The lunch box is heavier than the shot put. Is this normal?

Kakashi swallowed and suddenly felt awe for the food in the lunch box.

When Kakashi opened the lunch box on the road, he found that it was full of compacted and heavy braised pork and fish, and every inch of the lunch box was filled.

From the specific situation inside the lunch box, one can easily imagine how worried that Amamiya Zero, who was serving the rice, was that Kakashi would not have enough to eat.

Amamiya Zero caught a glimpse of Uchiha Fugaku walking towards him from the corner of his eye.

Chapter 56 Purple Tsk~

"Mr. Fugaku."

Amamiya Rei greeted Fugaku.

He glanced at Fugaku in front of him, and then glanced at Uchiha Itachi who was looking at Fugaku's back not far away.

Why did Fugaku come to see him instead of saying goodbye to his wife and son?

Amamiya Zero was confused.

"Have a safe journey, Mr. Fugaku."

Seeing that Fugaku was still in a state of not being able to achieve anything, Amamiya Rei gritted his teeth and said a blessing.

As Amamiya Zero looked at Fugaku in front of him, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.

He narrowed his eyes.

Fugaku is delivering this to your doorstep?
