Naruto: The Traitor Starting from Uzumaki Kushina

Orochimaru announced the order to retreat.

The Konoha ninjas who were now fighting in Yugakure Village fought and retreated all the way to the gate of Yugakure Village.

Orochimaru glanced at the remaining Konoha ninjas and frowned slightly.

Before they came, there were probably less than a hundred people, about ninety.

Now, with a glance, including the injured ninjas, there are only forty people left at most.

Although this surprise attack on Yugakure Village is about to succeed, the price they paid is also very heavy.

This operation is only one step away from success, and that is the neutrality of Kuroiwa Tatsuji. Jiraiya, who was also covered in blood, walked to Orochimaru and asked:"Orochimaru, what about that old man? Did he agree?"

"I don't know, but no matter what, we should retreat. We can't fight any longer."

Jiraiya nodded seriously. They really couldn't fight any longer.

Orochimaru believed that Kuroiwa Tatsuji would definitely agree to his proposal.

If he didn't agree, then the Hidden Tang Village would no longer need to exist.

Orochimaru announced:"Wait here for five minutes, stay here, and wait for the rest of our companions to join us. After five minutes, no matter what, we will retreat!"

Time was passing by every second.

The ninjas stationed here, including Orochimaru and Jiraiya, all released ninjutsu into the Hidden Tang Village to prevent the Cloud Ninja and the Soup Ninja from approaching.

The most active person here is Minato Namikaze.

Minato Namikaze relied on his mobility to go back and forth continuously, and each time he went back and forth, he could rescue a Konoha ninja.

Minato Namikaze is now exhausted.

But he is still holding on, thinking that he can save as many people as possible.

Just as Minato Namikaze was about to go in to rescue again, Jiraiya stopped Minato Namikaze.

""Okay, Minato, you've done your best. Don't go any more. We're going to retreat soon. You've reached your limit."

Minato Namikaze pleaded,"Teacher Jiraiya, there's still a little time. Let me go again."

Jiraiya shook his head,"You can't go any more. Your speed has slowed down a lot. Don't you realize that? If you go again, you'll be in danger. And this little time is not enough for you to save another person. Orochimaru said five minutes is five minutes. He will never stay for you for one more second.

Besides, by now, those who should have evacuated have already evacuated. Those who haven't evacuated have already evacuated...."

Jiraiya did not continue to speak, but the meaning was also very clear, the situation was very bad.

Namikaze Minato lowered his head slightly and stopped talking.

The time was up, and Orochimaru immediately said:"Retreat now, place detonating tags on the way back! Go!"

The Konoha ninjas who had gathered here retreated together.

The retreat process was very smooth, and there was almost no hindrance from the Kumo ninjas.

When they returned to the base, it was almost noon.

Chiba, who was seriously overdrawn, had returned to his tent to rest.

The others also healed their wounds and rested.

Orochimaru and Jiraiya did not rest either, because now was a busy time.

Orochimaru asked,"Jiraiya, have you finished the count? How many ninjas do we have left?"

Jiraiya reported,"There are only 43 ninjas left, and only 32 ninjas can fight in the short term."

Orochimaru's expression was a little serious:"We need to ask Konoha for help now. At least 60 ninjas are needed so that we can hold the front line after we advance it." Jiraiya frowned and said,"Orochimaru, do you want to advance the front line right away? Isn't it too hasty? Should we wait for the support to arrive before advancing?"

Orochimaru looked at the sand table and said without raising his head,"The matter of advancing the front line must be done as soon as possible, otherwise, when they"If we realize it, our plan to push the front line will be hindered, and this surprise attack on Yuyin Village will become meaningless, and the sacrificed ninjas will be sacrificed in vain."

Jiraiya sighed and said,"I understand. I will follow up on this matter immediately. So how far should the front line be pushed?"

Orochimaru picked up the flag of Konoha in the sand table and placed it on one of the positions in the sand table:"At least ten kilometers!"

Jiraiya was surprised and said,"So far? Can we hold it?"

Orochimaru said very calmly,"With so few people, of course we can't hold it. Because we can't hold it, we have to push the front line further." We need to push the front line further."

Jiraiya was very confused:"Why do we push the front line further when we know we can't hold it?"

Orochimaru explained:"It's the same thing. We need to have room. The ninjas supported by Konoha will not be able to reach Yuyin Village in one or two days. If we push the front line very conservatively for a certain distance, if the Cloud Ninjas attack us, we will eventually have to retreat back here again.

But if we push the front line farther from the beginning, fight and retreat, and wait for the arrival of Konoha's support, then we can hold the front line at our current position."

Jiraiya understood Orochimaru's explanation and sighed:"Orochimaru , you have a really good brain. If it was you who came to the Land of Hot Springs, maybe we wouldn't be in this situation now."

Orochimaru said bluntly:"It's not maybe, it's certain, Jiraiya, you are too conservative. War is like two beasts fighting each other. As long as one side shows signs of weakness, the other side will surely bite you until death."

Jiraiya sat on the chair and said:"I don't want to be so conservative, but if I have to attack without considering the consequences like you, it would be too difficult for me. By the way, what's the situation on Konoha's other fronts?"

Orochimaru replied:"The Rock Ninja and Sand Ninja fronts are okay, but they are a bit troublesome now.���Even the Hidden Mist Village may have to join the battle. Besides, the Cloud Ninjas in the Land of Hot Springs are too troublesome at the moment, so the teacher sent me to the Land of Hot Springs for support."

Jiraiya sighed and said,"It has only been a few years since the Second Ninja World War ended, but I didn't expect that there would be another war. Wouldn't it be good for everyone to live in peace in the Ninja World together?"

Orochimaru's snake pupils glanced at Jiraiya:"Jiraiya, you are still so naive."

Jiraiya smiled and said,"Sometimes there is nothing wrong with being naive. It's too tiring to live as clearly as you do. By the way, how is your disciple? In addition to the injured me and Rope Tree you carried on your back during World War II, it seems that you have only carried the kid Chiyu."

Hearing the name of Rope Tree, Orochimaru's snake pupils shrank, and then he replied calmly:"Chiyu was slightly injured and his body was overdrawn, but there is nothing serious."
