In mid-April, when the Land of Night troops completely withdrew from all frontline battlefields, Yayoi also led the Lord troops and dozens of fully loaded cargo ships to safely withdraw to the territory of Land of Night.

On the way back, Yayoi also passed by the archipelago base sandwiched between the Land of Night and Land of Lightning sea areas. After more than a year of reclamation and construction, the place had already changed greatly.

With the large and small islands connected, and the thousands of ninjas and Samurai stationed here, this place has become an important defense line and supply point in the Land of Night sea area.

Therefore, during the retreat, Yayoi did not make any major changes here. Apart from replacing some garrison personnel and re-strengthening the defense, most of the management team remained the same.

As for Doichi, eldest legitimate son, Yayoi are not in a hurry to bring him back, and continue to let him serve under Uchiha Hokuto, just to accumulate experience.

After all, in addition to the land, the following sea areas are also where Land of Night focuses its attention.

After Land of Night's military strength is improved again, Yayoi will definitely expand the size of its maritime forces and strengthen its maritime defense lines.

The existence of this kind of sea area base is not only to make it easier to control the sea area in the future, but also to further deter Land of Lightning.

With this experience, Yayoi is undoubtedly telling Hidden Cloud Village of Land of Lightning that if they dare to attack next time, Land of Night will land in Land of Lightning's homeland faster than this time.

The peace talks are back to peace talks, but not everything will be fine after the peace talks. Kumogakure and Yayoi will not let down their guard for a moment against the extremely powerful main war faction Kumogakure.

In the first week after returning to Nightview City, Yayoi did nothing. Aoi and Rinko were still responsible for the work. After fighting for more than a year at Land of Lightning, he needed to enjoy himself for a while and treat the seriously injured personnel who had retreated from the Land of Hot Water front line.

Not only himself, Yayoi also gave the returning ninjas and Samurai a collective one-week vacation to relieve the fatigue and depression caused by the war.

After a week passed, Yayoi took over the work from Aoi and Rinko, and Irori took charge of Land of Night's various matters again.

After many days of statistics, Land of Night's specific battle losses on the battlefield have been fully calculated, and there are no omissions.

As for the battle damage figures calculated on the form, Yayoi was heartbroken when he saw them.

Since he was Medical Ninja, the main force that followed him to Land of Lightning did not suffer much loss. After more than a year, the total number of ninjas and Samurai killed was only about three hundred.

The main force that followed him to Land of Lightning totaled 3,000 people. This number of casualties was within Yayoi's original estimate.

Thanks to his Medical Ninjutsu treatment, many seriously injured people who should have died recovered as if they were coming back to life.

As for the main force of Land of Hot Water, Land of Night, there is not so much luck.

Not to mention those who died directly on the battlefield, many seriously injured personnel died on the way without waiting for treatment.

After all, after Hashirama Senju passed away, apart from his top Medical Ninja who could treat some serious injuries, among Ninja World, no second Medical Ninja could do it.

Statistics show that a total of 1,500 ninjas and Samurai were involved in the main force of Land of Hot Water and Land of Night, and the death rate was close to half.

Assault Force led by Izayoi also suffered heavy losses on the side battlefield. In the battle with Hidden Cloud Anbu, they lost almost half of their men.

Compared with the situation at Land of Lightning, the intensity of the battlefield at Land of Hot Water is undoubtedly more tragic.

On the one hand, this is because the military strength of Cloud-Mist Allied Forces here is indeed strong, and on the other hand, it is also because of the fighting here, with large-scale battles breaking out almost every month.

As a result, the number of casualties naturally increased sharply.

Unlike Yayoi's deployment in Land of Lightning, which forced Hidden Cloud Village to retreat as a guerrilla, and Land of Night itself was the absolute dominant side, the casualty figures naturally did not look so dazzling.

And this is still the case when many ninjas and Samurai are equipped with Chakra Pill. Without the assistance of these drugs, the number of casualties would be even higher.

In terms of Jonin level combat power, Land of Night is still too weak compared to Five Great Shinobi Nations.

"It seems that we can no longer act rashly in the next period of time."

Irori After reading the specific casualty figures, I felt a chill in my heart.

Although she knew that Land of Night suffered heavy losses at Land of Hot Water, she still felt dazzled after sorting out the specific casualties.

"Well, if you want to return to the pre-war state, you will need at least three years of rest. Fortunately, the number of students enrolled last year and this year is several times more than before, and the number of domestic enrollment will be even higher next year. However, if you really want to make a qualitative change, you may not see the results until ten years later."

Yayoi nodded, with fatigue in his voice, but also a hint of hope for the future.

After the death of God of Shinobi, the pinnacle of stability, countries increased their investment in military affairs in the second year.

In this regard, Land of Night naturally has not fallen behind, and its investment in military affairs is more fierce than any other country.

When Hashirama was still alive, the number of new students recruited by the Land of Night Military Academy every year was only about three hundred.

But now, the number of new students admitted each year easily exceeds a thousand, and investment in this area will be further expanded next year.

In the next era, the output of ninjas from various countries will undoubtedly enter an unprecedented stage of explosion.

After that, Yayoi started to deal with other matters, not only staring at these casualty numbers, but also considering the production recovery in the next few years.

For now, there are still many matters that need to be dealt with one by one.

The most common ones are the condolences sent by high-level officials from various countries, as well as some ninja villages that are in a state of war and want to achieve some military-level cooperation with Land of Night.

In this grand-scale ninja war, not only the big countries were involved, but many ninja villages from small countries were also coerced by the ninja villages from the big countries to participate in the war.

The worst among them are undoubtedly Frost Village of Land of Frost, Yugakure of Land of Hot Water and Amegakure of Land of Rain.

Especially Amegakure, located at Land of Rain, is between Konoha and Hidden Sand Village, but has not surrendered to any party. The former leader was assassinated for no apparent reason, so he is in the most worrying situation.

I have to say that this village is full of blood, but in the ninja world, strength speaks for itself.

In front of the powerful troops of Konoha and Hidden Sand Village, Rain Ninja was not even qualified to speak at the table.

Therefore, Yayoi didn't even look at Amegakure's request for help. The battle between Konoha and Hidden Sand Village would only stop when they both got tired.

And as far as he knew, the battle between Hidden Sand Village and Konoha involved fighting and robbing small neighboring countries at the same time. The appearance was even more ugly than that of Hidden Cloud Village, and they didn't even act it out.

Considering the terrible environment of Land of Wind, and the fact that Shamon is the leader of Radical Faction who is bent on strengthening Sunagakure, Yayoi is not surprised at all to commit such a robbery by any means necessary.

In addition to these, Iwagakure, who is confronting Hidden Mist Village, also received a handwritten letter from Wu.

In addition to some normal arms trade, there is also Perfect Jinchūriki Technology that I want to ask about Land of Night. If it can be sold, it doesn't matter if the price is high. It looks like it has a lot of money.

I am not afraid that Land of Night will ask for a high price, but I am afraid that Land of Night will not sell.

"..."

Yayoi bared his teeth and didn't know how to reply "no" for a moment.

Land of Night doesn't even have Jinchūriki, so where did Perfect Jinchūriki come from?

Hidden Cloud Village asked a similar question before, which made him confused. What are these guys talking about?

It wasn't until afterwards that he realized what the misunderstanding was all about.

It can only be said that the ninja's brain power is outrageous.

Can't these guys even differentiate between Tailed Beasts and Jinchūriki?

Even if you can't tell the difference yourself, can't you still ask about the Tailed Beasts in your body?

He remembered that when Seven-Tails came back, he should have met Two-Tails and Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

It's just that Yayoi didn't explain too much about these things, nor did he say anything about Jinchūriki, so we just let this misunderstanding exist.

Although the fact does not exist, it can still be used to scare others.
