At the Five Kage hideout, they had a map on the table, the five kage sat around it while Shikamaru's dad told the plan
"The X marks the enemy's hideout it is known ad the Mountain Graveyard if we go by land, we'll pass through the Hidden Steam Village and the Hidden Frost Village"
"Advise both nations that posses the steam and frost villagers to evacuate" said Gaara
"According to the reports by the Infiltration and Recon Unit the enemy is roughly 100,000 strong when one considers mobilizing regiment of that size I think one a fraction of them will come by sea we'll be in a bind if they surround us"
"Then it all comes down to who makes the first move" said Mifune
"Convene the ambush unit immediately have the main regiment run through their formations" said the Raikage to his assistant
"Yes sir" she said
"Make sure the medical unit is well supplied with medical ninja tools, Shikaku, help the Intel Unit check their chain of communication" said Sarina
"Roger" said Shikaku
"Contact Ao and the Sensory Unit, have them hurry" said the Mizukage to her assistant
"Y-yes" he said and they all went to do their jobs
"Tsuchikage these were finished while your were away" said Gaara
"Oh! so they are done!" said the Tsuchikage, Gaara holed up a red headband that said shonbi on it
"Take it" said Gaara
"Headbands for the Allied Shonbi Forces eh, nice work" said the Tsuchikage
"I came up with the design former enemies who once battled each other are now one shonbi force, furthermore, shonbi and samurai have joined together, the time is near" said Mifune, they all nodded, outside of the hideout all the shonbi's are getting their new headbands, Kankuro walked up to Sai
"I am Kankuro of the Sand appointed captain of the Ambush Unit" he said
"Kankuro you say? what should be your nickname" said Sai
"Huh!?" said Kankuro confused
"The headbands have been distributed, medical supplies have been checked" said a person
"Provisions have been checked" said another person he then heard an "Oink", the man looked down and saw Lady Tsunade's pet pig, but he didn't know it was hers "Who is in charge of the livestock a pig escaped" he said, he went to go and pick it up put another person picked it up, the man looked up, it was Shizune
"The Captains here everyone fall in" said man, some shonbi lined up in front of her
" My name is Shizune and I have been named to lead this unit good to meet you all, first there is one thing I want you all to remember" said Shizune, she holed the pig in front of them "This one is not food"
Then there was the Intel Unit, a man walked up to Inoichi
"Your Inoichi right?" asked the man
"And you are" asked Inoichi
"I'm Tenga I've heard so much about you please let me put you on video tape and..." said the man but then another man walked up behind Inoichi, Inoichi turned around
"I'm sorry I'm late" he said
"I heard...What a rough time you had, Aoba" said Inoichi
"Yes, Yamato was..." said Aoba
"But put that out of your mind now we, the Intel Unit will oversee all communications between units, Intel must be transmitted accurately and quickly, in order to do that we must remain calm at all times, no matter what we hear understand" said Inoichi to his unit
"Yes" they all said, In another unit
"A war huh" said a Cee
"Your name was Cee right, is this your first war" asked Ao
"Yes" he said
"We are the eyes of the Allied Shonbi Force, our units performance can greatly change the tide of battle, stay focus and alert" said Ao
"I understand Captain Ao" said Cee
"Everyone don't let down your guard" said Ao
"Yes Sir" they all said
Then all of the shonbi were walked to outside the Five Kage hideout were they are suppose to assemble
"I heard they were going to slit us up into five units so I figured they're group us by village" said Choji
"That's not going to happen, this is a war" said Shikamaru
"He's right" said Temari "This is no time to be competing with other villages"
"Yeah, the main regiment is made up of five units each specializing in warfare, The First Company: Mid Range Battle Unit comprised of shonbi who excel in mid-distance combat made up mostly of shonbi who are weapon users. The Second Company: Close Range Battle Unit specializes in close combat the shonbi of this unit will be fighting on the front lines. The Third Company: Intermediate Range Battle Unit will be stationed to provide support up close and mid range to be part of this unit one must have speed and physical strength. This is the Fourth Company: Long Range Battle Unit we will provide the link with the Intel Unit to support the front lines, in addition we must act as a shield for the support units behind the lines. And finally, The Fifth Company: Special Range Battle Unit with their specialized ninjustu and attack tactics" said Shikamaru
"A Special Unit?" said Choji
"Yes...In war anything can happen even if we broke up into units its wishful thinking to believe that each team will operate without a hitch. Depending on the situation some units will find themselves in a good battlefield position while others will be at a disadvantage this is where we'll rely on the shonbi who posses secret ninjustu" said Shikamaru
"Cant say that all preparations have been made, but considering roughly 80,000 shonbi have been organized into units this quickly you've got to hand it to the brains behind the Hidden Leaf, Shikaku Nara" said Temari, she then looked at Shikamaru "You better not embarrass your dad"
"So the war is about to begin" said Choji
"Captains!" shouted a voice, they all stopped talking and looked at the Five Kage hideout balcony to see who their captain will be all five captains walked onto the balcony
"The Captain of the First Company known as the Raikage's right hand man, Darui of the Hidden Cloud, The Captain of the Second Company Kitsuchi of the Hidden Rock, The Captain of the Third Company is Sarina, The Captain of the Fifth Company is General Mifune of the Land of Iron, and... The Captain of our Fourth Company and Commander in Chief of all battle units...Gaara The Kazekage" said Shikamaru
All of the shonbi were cheering
