After observing for a while, Kanda Ouzuru lowered the Monocular Telescope in his hand.
After thinking for a moment, he bit his thumb open and let the blood drip down.
Then he brought his hands together and swiftly formed the five hand seals of "Boar-Dog-Bird-Monkey-Ram," casting the Summoning Jutsu.

A cloud of Chakra smoke burst open.
A slender Crane Clan crane appeared in the field.
Kanda Ouzuru wasted no words. He immediately took out paper and brush, wrote a secret letter, and slipped it into the message tube on the crane's leg.

Then it nodded, flapped its wings, and shot into the sky like a sharp arrow, vanishing beyond the horizon.
Watching its departing figure, Kanda Ouzuru let out a slight breath of relief.

"Next, everyone, keep a close watch on the enemy's movements. We must make sure they remain under our surveillance at all times."
"Yes, Captain!"

Then they each began going about their own tasks.

It was not just him. All the Jonin in the base
