Since Konoha had yet to enter the war and was not fighting on three fronts,
the Konoha Sannin, Konoha's White Fang, and Shimura Danzō still gathered together, keeping constant watch over the battlefields of Sunagakure and Amegakure.
At present, the busiest and most dangerous personnel were undoubtedly the Reconnaissance Team and Anbu, who were responsible for infiltrating enemy nations and gathering intelligence.
