Escape from Konoha Ye Xining

I saw Sakumo at nine o'clock in the morning the next day, and the three of Shiraishi arrived at the Konoha camp on the front line of the Fire Country.

There is basically no change between here and before. If there is a change, it is that the atmosphere here is more tense than before.

However, the previous task of cutting off the sand hidden supply, although Baishi and the others 'failed' the task due to the disturbance of the roots, Shuo Moo's side completed the task very well.

He destroyed the important supply point of Sand Hidden by himself, causing Sand Hidden's offensive strength to become weak for a while.

"In other words, as long as you survive this winter, Sha Yin will be self-defeating?"

Shiraishi asked.

It is already the beginning of October, and the weather is slowly getting cooler, especially in December, when the Land of Fire and the Congress of Rivers enter the cold winter season.

The sand hidden ninjas don't have enough supplies to survive this winter, and the situation will become extremely unfavorable for sand hidden in the early spring.

"In general, that's true, but we are not sure whether Sha Yin will really retreat. We can only say that the possibility is very high."

Somo nodded.

In the case of insufficient supplies, launching the last ferocious attack and opening the gap into the land of fire is also a way out for Yinsha.

After all, it was the third Kazekage who took the lead this time, so he had to be fully prepared.

The more this is the case, the more we must be very careful not to let the sand ninjas take advantage of it.

"Then what is the task assigned to our team?"

"It's still the same as before, looking for lone sand ninja troops to annihilate, and reducing the pressure on the frontal battlefield from the side."

Shuo Mo replied.

He is very aware of his limits as a ninja, he does not have any large-scale ninjutsu attacks, and all his strength comes from body and sword techniques.

Therefore, he will have a headache for enemies with large-scale ninjutsu attacks, but on the other hand, his physical teleportation and sword skills are at their peak.

If he couldn't keep up with his speed, and lacked the defensive means to resist White Fang's dagger, for him, the difference between killing an enemy was only one blow or a few blows.

This point, Shiraishi and the others are also very clear.

He is a ninja with obvious flaws and strengths.

It is suitable for small-scale battles, but in large-scale battles, it will limit his strength.

Because he has more things to consider on the frontal battlefield, avoiding the kunai and detonating charms flying from nowhere, and if he encounters many companions in distress, whether to save or not is also a question worthy of serious consideration.

In this way, his sword skills will become hesitant and dull, and he will not be able to exert 100% of his strength.

Shuo Mao has nothing to complain about.

Ninjas are assigned jobs that suit them because of their different abilities and personalities.

He is only suitable for this kind of action and combat. For example, Sannin is not competent for his work, and he is not competent for Sannin's work.

"You just arrived here today, let's rest here for a day, and we will start the mission tomorrow morning."

"Yes."

Before leaving, Shuo Mao said something to Shiraishi: "By the way, I forgot to say, Shiraishi, if you have nothing to do, you can go to the medical camp. Right now, the medical ninjas here are still in short supply. It can relieve the pressure there."

"I understand."

Shiraishi nodded and walked towards the medical camp.

It is true to relieve the pressure of the medical team, but how much pressure can be relieved, Shiraishi also knows that it is just Shuo Mao's words of comfort.

After all, treating patients is the bounden duty of a medical ninja, and Shiraishi has no reason to refuse.

However, in Shiraishi's view, Konoha still has the defect of insufficient number of medical ninjas. It is entirely because of his own cognition and execution strategy problems that lead to such a result.

Konoha attaches great importance to medical education, and it is also because of the medical reform proposed by Tsunade a few years ago that he began to train medical ninjas.

But in fact, at the beginning, Konoha did not pay too much attention to medical reform.

In their eyes, instead of allocating resources to medical ninjas with weak combat capabilities, it is better to cultivate more powerful ninjas and strengthen the combat effectiveness of the village.

However, after experiencing the extremely tragic War of the Land of Rain, it was discovered that the resources were tilted to the powerful ninjas, and the death rate remained high, so they began to enforce medical ninjutsu courses in ninja schools.

Shiraishi is the first batch of members of the medical ninja experimental class for medical reform, and he knows how slack Konoha has been in training medical ninjas.

If Tsunade hadn't proposed this reform...Maybe Konoha would not pay attention to the profession of medical ninja until now.

(PS: In the original book, I remember that when Tsunade proposed medical reform, all the high-level and Jonin, including the third Hokage, were not interested in Tsunade's proposal. Only Kato supported Tsunade, and it may be the gluttonous gang hand body...)

When he came to the camp where the medical team was located, he could hear the wailing cries of the wounded, and the smell of disinfectant and blood mixed into Baishi's nostrils.

Coupled with the limited scope of the camp, some wounded could only lie outside and receive sloppy treatment.

Prioritizing the rescue of severely injured ninjas, and then treating the moderately and mildly injured, this is the rule of the Konoha Medical Unit.

Here, Shiraishi also saw Tsunade, but he did not recall the past, where Tsunade was performing medical ninjutsu to treat the wounded.

Shiraishi explained the purpose of his visit to the deputy commander here, and the other party was very happy. At this time, one more medical ninja is equivalent to rescuing a few more wounded.

Especially the other party is the medical ninja specially equipped for Shuo Mao's team, who is the first batch of students in the medical experimental class of the ninja school. No matter how you look at it, medical ninja can't be too bad.

Therefore, he immediately allocated more than a dozen moderately and mildly injured people to Baishi, as well as some medical supplies, and asked him to go to work quickly.

Shiraishi walked to an open space, where the floor was paved, and there were many wounded Konoha ninjas lying there, and there were about dozens of wounded.

Together with Shiraishi, there are three medical ninjas, the oldest is in his 30s, and the youngest is a few years older than Shiraishi.

Even if they are both medical ninjas, they don't communicate at all, or they don't have the time at all.

Baishi concentrated on using the healing technique, and treated the wounds of these wounded with skillful and standardized movements.

During the treatment process, Shiraishi will also communicate with the injured to reduce the pressure in their hearts and treat them better.

"It's all right, and then you just need to rest for two days."

"I know you, you are a member of Sakumo Jōnin Team, you are really powerful medical ninjutsu."

The cured Konoha Ninja praised Shiraishi in a kind tone.

"No, compared to my predecessors, I still have many shortcomings."

For this kind of praise, Shiraishi just smiled modestly.

After all, compared to a medical ninja of Tsunade's level, he still has a lot to improve.

From the morning to the evening when it was dark, Shiraishi did not finish his medical work.

Because most of the tents were requisitioned by the medical troops, even so, there were still some wounded who were not assigned to tents, so when Shiraishi came back to join Liuli and Ayane, they were only assigned an open space to rest.

At five o'clock in the morning the next morning, the sky was dark, and Baishi and the others had already woken up.

Some Konoha ninjas are still asleep, and many Konoha ninjas are patrolling the outer circle of the camp, mainly perception ninjas and ninjas from the Hyuga clan.

When Shuo Mao came to look for them, the three of Baishi had prepared everything, including Bingliang Pills, Antidote, Kunai, Detonating Talisman, Sealed Scroll, Medical Kit, etc., all equipped without missing a single one.

As the only auxiliary medical staff in the team, Shiraishi was assigned to equip as much supplies as possible, so he stuffed emergency food and water in his backpack.

The next mission of Shuo Mao's team can also be said to have no mission content.

Annihilate the enemy when you encounter them, support your companions when you encounter them, and destroy them if you encounter the transport convoy of Sand Ninja by chance.

It's like Sa Yin sent elite troops to make trouble in the Fire Country before, to distract Konoha's attention, and even make the front-line Konoha ninjas dare not move casually.

The same is true for Shuo Mao's mission this time.

Go deep into the country of Sichuan, and even the country of wind, to carry out sabotage work behind enemy lines, and let Shuo Mao's team deal with it according to the situation on the spot.

The higher authorities gave the Shuo Mao team considerable freedom, which also meant that this mission was highly dangerous.

Not to mention Shiraishi and Ayane, Liuli is already eager to try it.

After the last battle, her ninjutsu, physical skills, and illusion skills have all grown a lot, and her Sharingan has also been upgraded to the three-god jade form.

This kind of growth is obvious, and Shuo Mao is also very satisfied with it, thinking that if he wants to deal with the current Liuli, he can't take it lightly.

◎

November, mid-term.

The country of Chuan, Sand Hidden Camp.

Sandai Kazekage looked at the information sent by the people below with a gloomy face. In the past month, it has been frequently reported that the sand ninja team performing patrol missions in the country of Kawa was wiped out by the enemy.

"Konoha White Fang!"

Sandai Kazekage slammed his fist on the table fiercely, his eyes burning with anger.

Even if you don't need to look at the intelligence information, you know who did such a thing.

Except for Konoha Baiya, none of the jounin that Konoha can dispatch now has such a terrifying speed of annihilation.

The speed is so fast that it looks like a tornado. Wherever it goes, no grass will grow, and it will be uprooted.

Whether it's the top ninja squad, the middle ninja squad, or even the low ninja squad, they are all cut off without mercy.

Apart from the long-renowned Shirato, Sandai Kazekage couldn't think of any other Konoha jounin who could do this.

His most trusted puppet troops, two of the elite, were annihilated by the team led by Bai Fang in the Land of Fire, and even the corpses are still in Konoha's hands.

The power that Sand Yin can mobilize is no higher than Konoha, the only variable is that he, Kazekage, has an unused trump card - Shukaku.

The poisonous attack strategy created by Sand Yin was broken by Konoha ninja Tsunade.

He is fine for fighting head-on, but the overall quality of sand ninjas is worse than that of Konoha ninjas. In addition, there is a shortage of medical ninjas in the camp, and the death rate is a little higher than Konoha's.

Now there is the problem of White Fang harassing the rear again, Konoha's next step...

Sure enough, not long after, a jōnin came in to report that there was a change in the Konoha camp, and nearly a thousand ninjas set out from the camp and headed here from the front.

However, at the moment when they entered the border of the Kawano Country, Konoha's thousand-man troops stopped moving, as if they were just going out for a parade.

But Sandai Kazekage understands that Konoha intends to oppress Sagakure on the frontline battlefield, creating an opportunity for the White Fang team to attack.

If Sagakure chased and killed Bai Fang's team desperately, Konoha's large army would press up from the front.

"Is that guy Fenfu still not agreeing?"

Sandai Kazekage looked at a sand ninja with a solemn expression.

"I don't agree. No matter how I persuade him, I don't agree to use Shukaku's power. He said that I hope that you, Kazekage-sama, will regard peace as the most important thing. Stopping the war is the best for the sand."

The jounin replied.

"Stop the war for the sake of sand concealment, okay?"

Sandai Kazekage turned his gaze to the direction of the Land of Fire.

The land there is richer than the land of the wind, Konoha's talented ninjas emerge in endlessly, Bai Fang, Sannin, Kato Dan...

There are three clans of ninjas, the Inoka Butterfly, and other famous ninjas, Sarutobi, Shimura, Inuzuka, Yume and so on.

What's even more frightening is that Uchiha and Hinata, the most well-preserved ancient blood-stained giants in the ninja world, are also among Konoha.

With such a strong lineup, Sandai Kazekage felt a heavy heart when he thought of this.

Now, if Konoha has not recovered from the War of the Kingdom of Rain and looted resources in the territory of the Fire Kingdom, it will be extremely difficult to reap the benefits after Konoha recovers.

Because Konoha is getting stronger and stronger, it has already caused enough pressure on the surrounding countries and ninja village.

If this continues, as Konoha becomes stronger and stronger, there will be less and less space for Sha Yin to live.

We can only keep reducing military expenditures and the number of ninjas, and we can only watch Konoha's ninjas grow more and more, and the military expenditures are becoming more and more sufficient, making him unique in the ninja world.

At that time, Shayin will completely linger under Konoha.

Sandai Kazekage didn't want to see Sandakaku like that, no matter how powerful Konoha was, he still wanted to fight.

As long as Konoha's power can be weakened, Sahikaku can breathe a sigh of relief and see the hope of prosperity.

If there is no war, there is not even a glimmer of hope in sight.

Therefore, the idea of ​​"peace is the most important" of the crane guards and the pillars of blessings is just from an individual point of view, but between countries, there is no justice and evil, only strong and weak, and only gains and losses.

"He is not suitable for this ninja world. Although Shuzuru is very safe in his body, if he does not take the initiative to stimulate, there is no risk of going berserk. But it also means that Sa Yin will not be able to use this weapon. The weapon cannot be used. This is for the The greatest tragedy of war. It seems that I need to replace Jinchuriki..."

Hearing Sandai Kazekage's words, that Jonobu was shocked.

"Master Kazekage, this..."

"Don't worry, I just mentioned it casually. After all, the transfer of the tail beast is of great importance, and it must be decided through a high-level meeting."

Sandai Kazekage said this, but he couldn't make the Jōnin feel at ease.

"So what should we do now?"

This Jōnin was very helpless.

This is the most difficult place for Shayin.

Compared with Konoha, not only is the gap in overall quality, but also inferior to Konoha in terms of top ninjas.

Just a single Konoha White Fang was a headache for them. If such a dangerous ninja was left to destroy in the rear, the sand ninjas were all frightened.

Recently, many sand ninjas are afraid to take on the task of patrolling the country of Sichuan.

Facing that White Fang, many sand ninjas have already begun to feel terrified.

"I already have a countermeasure. This is a personal letter from Iwagakushi Onoki, and he will help us in secret."

"Is that Tsuchikage? To be honest, I don't recommend Kazekage-sama to cooperate with that Tsuchikage."

"This is our only chance."

Three generations of Kazekage said.

With that said, he sat down at his desk and drafted two letters.

After writing the letter, he handed it to his confidant next to him, and said: "One letter is sent to Konoha's commander Orochimaru, and the other letter is sent to Konoha Baiga by the patrol team."

"This is……"

The name Shinobu looked at Sandai Kazekage in bewilderment.

"Go down."

"Yes."

Although he was puzzled, the Jōnin went down and carried out this task.

"All of this is for the sake of Saken... Konoha..."

Three generations of Kazekage murmured faintly, a sharp breath flashed in his eyes.

◎

The western part of the country of Kawa.

It is at the junction of the Land of Winds and the Land of Rivers.

The sand ninja who supported the country of the river from the country of the wind will pass by this road.

The four members of the Shuo Mao team carried out the annihilation strategy here.

Annihilate all sand ninjas in front of you without leaving a single one.

After annihilating a team, get out immediately, never procrastinate, find a hidden place to hide, and then continue to annihilate after a while.

Leaving aside Sakumo, who has been famous for a long time, Ruri and Ayane's strength is also at the level of a jounin, and they also have a special blood succession limit. The destructive power brought by the three of them is astonishing.

Shiraishi only needs to provide some small assistance at the rear of the team, such as poisoned smoke bombs and throwing detonating charms.

When not fighting, local materials are used to make medicines, such as Bingliang Pills and antidotes. After all, Sand Ninja's puppet master weapons are highly poisonous, and it is dangerous to accidentally rub them.

In this way, the sustained combat capability of the Shuo Mao team was increased.

This morning, another six-member sand ninja team was wiped out.

It doesn't seem like many, but since accepting this mission more than a month ago, they have been fighting every day, fighting, and constantly have sand ninjas dying at the hands of their team. There are hundreds of sand ninjas in total.

When you are lucky, you will also encounter a convoy from the Land of Winds entering the Land of Rivers, burn the few supplies that Sha Yin had, and then use Liuli's large-scale fire escape technique to create chaos by using agile mobility. Run away and avoid being surrounded by large forces.

If there are fewer people chasing, they will be annihilated by their team in reverse.

If there are more chasing ninjas, use the super high mobility to lead the opponent around in the country of Chuan.

Unless Sand Yin sends more than hundreds of ninjas at one time, including more than 20 jounin, it is impossible to encircle them in the country of Chuan.

If Sandai Kazekage really had this kind of determination to divide up so much of his vital force, Sahikari would have no chance of defeating Konoha, and the loss would be even greater.

Shiraishi skillfully rummaged through the corpse of Ninja on the dead sand, searching for things.

The scrolls that might record ninjutsu and information, the detonating charms used for combat, and the ration pills used for recovery, all of them were taken away until the backpack could no longer fit.

Baishi couldn't help sighing that following Shuo Mao, the task was done so smoothly.

The last time the three of them faced groups of sand ninja, they could only run around.

Even though their strength has become stronger now, they dare not confront Sand Yin's large army head-on.

Now with Shuo Mao leading the team, small-scale troops, as long as there are no more than a hundred people, go directly to fight.

If there are more than a hundred people, they will adopt a wandering strategy and lead the sand ninjas around.

Chasing or not chasing, this choice must be very tangled for sand ninjas.

If they catch up, they may die. If they don't catch up, Sakumo's team will continue to wreak havoc, constantly attacking the sand ninja patrol troops of the Kawa no Kuni, and attacking their transport convoys.

And with the white eyes of Ayane, you don't have to worry about setting up a battle in a hurry. When you encounter a large-scale army, you just need to break through from the weakest place.

In terms of ability to break through, Sakumo took the lead in the charge, so it can be said that he can come and go freely within the territory of the country of Kawa.

"Okay, the search here is almost done."

The six corpses on the white stone ground were groped clean.

A total of one high ninja, three middle ninjas, and two low ninjas.

During a face-to-face meeting, Liuli and Lingyin were completely wiped out by Shuo Mao before he could make a move.

Shuo Mao contributed the most, but without the assistance of the three of them, it would not have been so smooth, at least the problem of continuous supply would have been a headache.

Shuo Mao nodded and started to leave.

The three Baishi followed closely behind, moving extremely quickly.

In this way, he was running at the junction of the country of the river and the country of the wind.

Rest when you are tired, eat dry food, drink some water, and then go on the road.

Until around three o'clock in the afternoon, a four-member sand ninja team appeared in Ayane's eyes.

Sakumo didn't hesitate, and carried out an annihilation operation against this sand ninja team according to the rhythm of the past.

"strangeness."

Ayane said something.

"What's weird?"

Liuli looked at her.

"There should be one person in this team who is a perception ninja. He sensed our existence, but he didn't escape, and he wasn't ready to fight..."

Hearing what Ayane said, the other three frowned slightly.

"It was as if they were waiting for us to pass by."

Ayane said uncertainly.

"Are there any traps lying around?" Shuo Mao asked.

Ayane looked carefully and shook her head.

Don't talk about traps, these sand ninjas didn't even call Chakra, and didn't plan to use long-range ninjutsu to attack.

Just as they were about to approach, one of the sand ninjas broke away from the team and rushed towards them.

Under Ayane's signal, Shuo Mao stopped, and Shiraishi and Liuli also stopped.

It didn't take long for the sand ninja to arrive in front of them in the form of an instant appearance.

He didn't do anything, just took out a sealed letter from the ninja bag.

"Your Excellency Bai Fang, this is a letter from our Master Feng Ying, please read it."

The other party looked businesslike.

Ayane nodded to Sakumo. There was no poison or chakra flowing in this letter, it was just a normal letter.

Sakumo walked over, took the letter from the sand ninja, opened it, glanced at it, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"I see, I will confirm this matter myself."

The sand ninja nodded and disappeared from Sakumo.

"Teacher Shuo Mao, this letter is..."

Baishi and the others came up to watch, curious about the contents of the letter.

Shuo Mao didn't hide anything, and spread out the letter for Baishi and the others to read.

At the top of the letter, there are only three words—a settlement letter.

This is the third Kazekage of sand ninja, ready to stop the signal of war with Konoha.

"Is this letter credible?"

"I don't know, let's see what Orochimaru said. If you agree, the war will end here. If you disagree, we will continue to carry out our mission. Before receiving the official order, the mission will be temporarily suspended, and there is no need to attack sand ninja."

After Shuo Mao finished speaking, he looked into the distance with deep eyes.
