ALL NOVEL Chapter 145
On the way to Sand Village, Orochimaru was suspected of betrayal and destroyed Scorpion's puppet in the process, so our Yang No, who held various positions, had to go there in person.
Considering the location, the journey also had to pass through the vast land of the Land of Fire.
Of course, Yang No would not take the ordinary ninjas she met along the way seriously, and Kisame was also in the Hidden Mist Village, so she didn't have to worry about any major changes in the Hidden Mist Village during her absence.
It's ridiculous that the ninjas in the village who could threaten her rule might now be on the front line fighting Konoha, bearing waves of attacks from Konoha ninjas.
Of course, she didn't care about this at all.
After a simple arrangement, Yang No left the Hidden Mist Village and began to fulfill her duties as a member of the Akatsuki organization.
At this time, in the base of the Land of Hot Springs, the Mist Shadow Ninjas who were left on the front line by Yang No were very uncomfortable.
Although they were fighting bloody battles and were covered in wounds, the enemy's top forces were difficult to deal with, and it was unknown when the reinforcements and the Cloud Hidden Army that should have joined them would arrive.
In fact, those high-end Konoha fighters who were not present were all there to stop the army of the Hidden Cloud Village led by Bokuto, including Jiraiya and his disciple Uzumaki Naruto. Of course,
Naruto did not appear in his original form, but after releasing part of the Nine-Tails Chakra, he created a large number of shadow clones to serve as the basic combat force.
Because of this, the duel between the Jinchūriki did not happen, but anyway, Jiraiya hoped to achieve the effect of delaying the speed and time of the Hidden Cloud Village to respond as much as possible.
This was indeed successful - if the Hidden Cloud Village only had this reinforcement, then I am afraid that the army of Mei Terumi would really be annihilated.
However, the famous AB combination of the Hidden Cloud Village also rushed to the battlefield.
After receiving the information submitted by Yang No, they left behind those ninjas with poor mobility and approached quickly.
At the beginning, the movement of the Konoha army was under the control of Yang No, and under the ability of Zetsu and Obito, it was like turning on one-way transparency.
The key to the victory or defeat of this battle lies in two aspects. One is whether the Akatsuki organization will inform those ninja villages after receiving the intelligence, and the other is whether the Cloud Village has the strength nearby to go to support in time.
Now it seems that the Cloud Village has met both conditions.
In the end, the raid ended with the arrival of the support troops led by the Raikage from the Cloud Village.
When two figures as fast as lightning rushed into the battlefield like a storm in the distance, Tsunade immediately recognized the identity of the other party and realized that it was impossible to do anything.
In the end, the action was immediately announced to be suspended, and the ninjas on their side retreated to the depths of the woods.
In the previous fierce battle, they fought in the thick fog until they were blown away by the airflow generated by the passage of time and the explosion of various ninjutsu.
Therefore, Konoha once again had the upper hand on the battlefield, but unfortunately it was still unable to eat the opponent's force.
Of course, even retreat does not mean defeat.
As a combat unit with extremely high subjective initiative and super mobility, ninjas are different from the battles between samurai and foot soldiers in the traditional world.
If a battle between samurai reaches the point where one side retreats, then there is a high probability that it will be a complete failure.
The victorious side will then kill the defeated side, causing them to abandon their weapons and armor. In fact, most of the casualties in the cold weapon era were caused in pursuit battles.
Even if the ninjas retreat, they can still form teams of several people to set up defenses in dense bushes, constantly creating various traps to weaken the pursuit.
Sometimes, the price paid by the ninjas in a retreat may be smaller than that of the ninjas in pursuit, but they can reap more results.
Such a battle has also appeared in the Naruto comics, that is, the battle for the ninjas to recapture Sasuke.
In that war, if the ninjas had not been able to get the halo of the protagonist, they would have been injured.
Uchiha Itachi used Susanoo's ability with all his strength, and a large number of shurikens in the shape of magatama flew out of Susanoo's palm and attacked the AB combination that came.
This attack was not for hitting at all, but forcing them to not be able to pursue in the fastest straight line, and had to change the predetermined trajectory.
Combined with some other ninjutsu of their own side, they successfully delayed some time, so that a considerable number of Konoha ninjas successfully evacuated.
Of course, there were also hundreds of Konoha ninjas who were exhausted and unable to avoid the Kumogakure ninjas who came from afar. Although the other side was also exhausted physically and mentally due to the long-distance high-speed maneuver, they still suffered heavy losses under the full-scale attack of the AB combination.
In the end, the whole army was annihilated.
The short fight made the elites of Konoha deeply feel how difficult the AB combination was without the containment of Minato Namikaze.
What's more, both of them are now at their peak, and their strength is several points stronger than before they fought with the Yellow Flash.
Now even if Minato Namikaze is resurrected, he is afraid that he will be unable to resist-of course, the premise is that he does not become the other half of the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki like in the original work.
Therefore, facing the fleeing Konoha ninjas, the Kumogakure troops who came from afar did not pursue them, because such a one-on-one pursuit and one-on-escape often cannot determine the real outcome of the battle-the other side can flee in all directions at will.
The only way to force the ninjas of Konoha to fight a decisive battle with him is to lead the army to attack Konoha Village directly. Only in this way can he attack the enemy and force Konoha to fight a war of attrition with him.
The fierce battle finally came to an end.
In the tent of Kirigakure, the ninjas from Kumogakure Village who came from afar joined in. Raikage Ai took the main seat as a matter of course, while Terumi Mei, as the commander of Kirigakure Village, could only sit in the position below Killer Bee in his own tent. The
Kirigakure ninjas present were unwilling to do so. In their opinion, they were trying to take advantage of the situation for Kumogakure Village. They had just experienced a bloody battle and suffered a lot of losses. The other side also took away their village's Jinchūriki, and the threat to them might be greater than that of Konoha.
I really don't understand what Mizukage and Advisor are thinking, to join forces with such a tiger and wolf village.
The other side hasn't won the war yet, and hasn't even taken the initiative in the war, but they've already put on this attitude. After they completely defeat Konoha and become the overlord of the ninja world, will this ninja village like theirs, which is surrounded by tigers and wolves, still have a good life?
