Naruto: soldier of 141

Chapter Seventy-Nine: Workday

"Glad to see that you are up and well Commander." The halo projection of General Warshower said Naruto had only nodded his head in response ready to receive his orders from the General. 

A meeting was being called between the two base commanders, the mother and son duo were confused as to why the meeting was being called but they made it to the office and were now there with the General's hologram form. 

"Commander Uzumaki, Commander Shiela," General Warshower began, "I have an important mission briefing for you both."

Naruto and Shiela exchanged a glance, their curiosity piqued.

"The Russian President will be visiting our base to greet you personally and thank you for your heroic actions," General Warshower continued. "Your intervention saved him from his former defense minister, Dourov, and liberated his country. This visit is not just a gesture of gratitude but a significant diplomatic event."

Naruto's eyes widened slightly, understanding the gravity of the situation. Shiela nodded, her expression resolute.

"The Japanese Admiral will also be in attendance," General Warshower added. "The Admiral wishes to ally with our resilient commander Uzumaki, who has successfully neutralized the threat of Hades from Japanese soil."

Naruto felt a surge of pride but maintained his composure. "What are our specific orders, General?"

"First and foremost, we need to ensure the safety of our distinguished guests," General Warshower stated. "Naruto, I need you to mobilize the base. Our Marines must take up defensive positions around the village and the base. Intelligence suggests that there are still remnants of the PLR in the elemental Nation who might try to disrupt this meeting."

"Understood, sir," Naruto replied. "We'll ensure the area is secure."

"Shiela," General Warshower said, turning to her, "your expertise in strategic planning will be crucial. I need you to oversee the coordination of our defense forces. Make sure every contingency is covered."

Shiela nodded. "I'll start with the preparations immediately."

The General's hologram flickered slightly before he continued, "Additionally, we must prepare for the diplomatic aspect of this meeting. The President and the Admiral will expect a thorough debriefing on our operations and plans. Naruto, I trust you to lead this briefing."

Naruto straightened, feeling the weight of the responsibility. "I will, General. We'll make sure everything goes smoothly."

"Good," General Warshower said. "This is a critical moment for our alliances. Failure is not an option. You both have proven yourselves time and again. I have full confidence in your abilities."

The hologram flickered again, signaling the end of the transmission. "Warshower out."

As the projection faded, Shiela turned to Naruto. "We have a lot to do, and not much time."

Naruto nodded. "Let's get started. I'll brief the Marines and start mobilizing them."

Shiela placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "I'll handle the strategic coordination. We've got this, Naruto."

The two commanders quickly left the office, their minds already racing with plans and contingencies. They split up, each heading to their respective areas of responsibility.

Naruto made his way to the barracks, where the Marines were already gathering in response to the alert. He climbed onto a platform to address them.

"Listen up, everyone," Naruto began, his voice carrying authority and urgency. "We have a critical mission. The Russian President and the Japanese Admiral will be visiting our base. We need to ensure their safety at all costs. The remaining PLR forces in the elemental Nation might try to interfere. I need every one of you to be on high alert and ready to defend our guests and our base."
