Early morning
In front of Konoha Gate.
Sarutobi was standing at the gate wearing the Hokage robe.
Opposite him stood Kozuki and behind him were more then 1000 Konoha Ninja.
They were going with Kozuki to Mist to support Danzo.
"Where the leave dances, the fire blazes. The blaze of fire will light the entire village Also, let the new leaves bud... You are the hope of the village, and it is about time when you protect the village, protect your family, and... everyone"
Sarutobi is giving a passionate speech boosting the morale of Ninja.
His speech lasted for long time, when Kozuki under the stage was about to fall asleep, he finally stopped.
"Kozuki, these thousands Shinobi are left in your care, you must protect Konoha"
Sarutobi decided to let Kozuki command these Thousands Ninja to get his favour.
Actually rather then dealing with Kozuki, Sarutobi thought he could act generous towards Kozuki to win his favour and then he can be used by him.
"Don't worry, Lord Hokage, the result of the war will definitely end with Konoha's victory."
How could Kozuki not understand Sarutobi's intention but he didn't care much as long as he doesn't bother him or those he cares he will also play ignorant.
"Haha, Then I'm worry free but take this letter with you and show it to Danzo"
Sarutobi clasped his hands and said earnestly and handed him a scroll.
"Let's go"
Kozuki shouted vigorously to Ninja behind as the whole squad set off towards Mist.
______________
Danzo's Camp.
At this time, Shimura Danzo was sitting in the main seat of the command tent, watching the information sent by the roots in the village.
Even if he is not in the village, but if there is any major event in the village, it can't escape his ears.
"Sarutobi, you handed over the command to a child, you will regret it"
Shimura Danzo looked gloomy, looking at the information in his hand.
He had already made the mental preparations to retreat to Konoha, but he received a letter from Sarutobi Hiruzen saying that there would be a ninja coming to help him soon and let him cooperate more.
From Danzo's point of view, it would be good for both the upcoming Ninja Legion and Kozuki to obey his command.
In this way, if the war is won, he will take the credit, but If they lost, the responsibility will be placed on Kozuki.
"Danzo-sama, the ninja of Kiri, destroyed one of our strongholds."
At this moment, a root ninja suddenly broke in and reported to Danzo.
"Take a few ninjas to deal with them, and at the same time build a new stronghold."
Danzo's face sank, and he said without hesitation.
_______________
In the woods of the Land of Fire.
Countless figures are constantly shuttling in the dense forest.
"Master Kozuki, it is expected that we will be able to reach the designated camping site before tonight. Do you have any instructions?"
At this time, a Hyuga Clan Ninja, quickly came to Kozuki side, and said to Kozuki.
"Well, we have been running non stop for a while stop everyone so they can rest"
Kozuki replied after thinking a little bit.
"Yes!"
Hyuga Ninja responded, and immediately delivered the order to whole legion.
Time passed quickly, and after an hour of rest they set of once again.
"Master Kozuki the front line is only a mile away."
At this time, Hyuga Ninja came again, and notified Kozuki.
"Let everyone immediately organize themselves in formation, we need to show off the aura of Ninja Army"
"Yes, Master Kozuki"
_______________
Danzo's Camp
"Master Danzo, we have detected the reinforcements they will be here in 10 minutes"
A root ninja appeared beside Danzo and said to Danzo.
"Ok, I know."
Danzo nodded, and the ninja of the root disappeared from command tent.
Danzo thought for a while, decided to see the legion, then walked out of the tent and walked towards the entrance of the camp.
As soon as I walked to the door, I saw from the dense forest in the distance walked out a uniform army.
Even if Danzo has never met Kozuki before he recognized him from his portraits and his unique temperament.
Kozuki led the ninja army to the front of the camp, raised his right hand, and made a gesture, and the ninja army behind him suddenly stopped moving.
"Elder Danzo, this is our first official meeting. I didn't expect it to be on the battlefield."
Kozuki said to Danzo in front of the camp.
"Kozuki Shiro, I don't know why Sarutobi will hand over the army behind to you, but now that you are here you will have to listen my command"
After seeing Kozuki, Danzo said with a sullen face.
"Elder Danzo, this is a letter from Lord Hokage to you."
Kozuki was a bit angry at his attitude but he still held back and handed the letter of Sarutobi to him.
After Danzo received the letter, he opened it and looked at it and saw it clearly stated that Kozuki had full command over this Legion and Danzo can't interfere.
"Impossible, you forged this letter, It is impossible for Sarutobi to do this."
Danzo angrily said to Kozuki accusing him to lie in front of all the Ninja's.
After Kozuki heard Danzo's words, the smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by a cold face, and at the same time a red light covered his body as he looked at Danzo.
In an instant, Danzo felt his head spinning nearly losing consciousness but Danzo bit his tongue his to stay awake as he fell on the ground on one knee panting heavily.
"Hu"
Danzo suddenly felt his neck tightened as Kozuki lifted him with one arm looking at him.
"Who do you think you are"
Kozuki looked at Danzo coldly as the last thing he would bear was to be treated as a liar.
Kozuki didn't even used his Haoshoku Haki seriously but Danzo nearly lost consciousness.
"Kozuki Shiro, you... won't have a good end if you do anything to me."
Danzo said with difficulty as his neck was held by Kozuki tightly.
Danzo wanted to fight back but he didn't know why in front of the aura of Kozuki, his hands were trembling, completely out of his control.
So, he could only threaten Kozuki to let him go.

Hello to everyone, to be honest after reading the comments I'm also regretting letting others write it for me, but as I mentioned earlier after the chapter 67 it's me writing once again and without cultivation vibe just like before chapter 30.
So if you can, please wait for the second volume to end, after all I'm also trying to get over with this and this mass release is it's proof.
This was my firsr book so being over cautious cost me but I will learn from my mistakes and try to increase the quality of the chapters.
I guarantee you will see massive improvement from chaprer 68 and onwards.
Stay Good
Thank You
