Duanmu Baiyun of Konoha

Chapter 55 The Old Man and the Child

The defense zone of the left wing troops was chosen in a wide area between the five river valleys.

Because before the war between the ninja villages, a very detailed intelligence collection has been carried out.Sand Ninja can rely on Ninja Taka to find Konoha's whereabouts from a long distance.Konoha can also rely on white eyes to spot sand ninja troops from a distance.

Therefore, the early battles between Ninja Village were all carried out in the form of groups.

There are also scenes in the comics where many ninjas gather to fight each other.

It is not until later in the battle that there will be a pursuit battle in units of squadrons or squadrons.

The defense zones of the three front-line troops, left, center, and right, are separated by a certain distance, but not far apart, and can support each other at critical moments.

The three defense zones formed a very long fan shape. If Sha Yin's troops wanted to bypass the defense zone and continue to attack the Nation of Fire, they would be cut off from supplies by the troops here, and would be slowly consumed to death.

This is also the reason why fortified cities are rarely bypassed during wars.

It is difficult to gnaw hard bones, but if you bypass the strong city, it is easy to lose your way.

Both Konoha and Sand Yin have no accurate information on the other's strategy, and they have adopted safe tactics.

Konoha chose to set up the defense zone first, and then continued to test.Until the time is right, a large-scale battle unfolds, seeking to eliminate the other side.

While arranging the defense zone, both sides will also send out the highest-quality intelligence and reconnaissance troops, which is what Elder Danzo is best at.

The roots of Elder Danzo's subordinates are extremely high-quality individual soldiers, and they are extremely effective in spying on intelligence.And in case of being arrested, it will also activate the self-destructive tongue curse seal.

This is also the value of Konoha, where the root of Danzo elders exists.

The role of this army in the war is too great, and no one dares to cancel the establishment of this army.

Otherwise, without the roots of the elder Danzo, who would carry out this most dangerous intelligence and reconnaissance work before the war?

What's more, without the seal of Tongue Ban, Konoha's information can be easily leaked out.

The valley can be used as a natural trench, which can store supplies and avoid attacks. As long as you pay attention to the upstream and downstream ends of the valley, you can ensure the safety of the valley.

The country of Kawa is such a terrain, and there are no other good options.

These valleys would be an important source of water for the left wing forces.This wasn't the last time when the frontline camp had just been built, no one would touch them and poison them, right? The ninjas here are much stronger than those in the camp.

After arriving at the deployment location, Kakashi Squadron received an order to explore the terrain around the deployment location.

Before arming, you need to know the details of the surrounding area as soon as possible, and obtain maps, routes, etc.

According to the requirements of the mission, Kakashi Squadron explored in the direction of 8 o'clock.

Kakashi's tactical literacy is very high, and he is very good at formulating strategies for different enemies.

According to the book of formation, Kakashi has five attributes of chakra and masters thousands of ninjutsu.

If there is no sharingan with soil, with Kakashi's talent, maybe at least the next ninja of the same level as the third generation.

Sharingan has made Kakashi, without Sharingan, Kakashi would not be able to appear in the later stage of the fairy fight.

Sharingan also dragged Kakashi down, and Kakashi never had a chance to show how talented he was.

The 8 o'clock direction assigned by Kakashi Squadron is to the southwest, and is responsible for reconnaissance on the front side of the battlefield.

Before going far, the squadron came across a small abandoned village.

It looks lifeless from a distance, and there are no traces of human activity.

Kakashi gave everyone a gesture to let everyone explore the village carefully.

The streets were dusty and unswept.

Occasionally, some waste paper and useless bags float by, making it even more desolate.

The doors of many houses were left open, and it could be seen that the owners were in a hurry as they fled for their lives.

Even the doors of some houses are broken, hanging limply aside.

The glass on the windows is broken, and weeds are growing along the walls. These houses have not been maintained for a long time.

The war between Konoha and Sand Ninja has been going on for a year.

The squadron's search caused crows to fly from the roofs of several houses.

The startled Obito was also taken aback by the crow.Duanmu guessed that the more sensitive Uchiha, the stronger he will be in the later stage.

Kakashi's footsteps stopped at the door of a house.

The door of this family is closed tightly, and the glass is considered intact.

The Shiranui Xuanjian team stayed outside the courtyard to guard, and the rest entered the courtyard.

This yard is a bit abnormal, without the feeling of dilapidation.

An old woman tremblingly opened the door, holding a baby in swaddling clothes, and there was a very small child in front of her.

"Master Ninja, why did you come into my house? There is nothing in my house, only me and my grandson."

Kakashi frowned, and asked first: "Grandma, why are you still here? Everyone in the village has run away."

"I want to run too, but my son and daughter-in-law are dead, so I can't run anymore."

At this time, everyone had a look of unbearable expression on their faces.

At this time, maybe the winter wind was too cold, and the child in the old man's arms cried.

The cry was sharp and high, expressing the child's uneasiness at the moment.

In the cold winter, one cry after another floated in the desolate and empty village, making this winter day even more bleak.

Duanmu glanced at Kakashi, and said to the old man: "Grandmother, I will give you some money, you take your grandson and leave quickly. This will be a battlefield soon."

The old man looked at Duanmu, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Where can I escape to again?"

"Everywhere is better than here, mother-in-law, you'd better go." Duanmu said, ready to take out some money from the ninja bag: "It's not that I don't want to give you more, but I'm afraid of being targeted by robbers if I give too much. It's even worse. I'll point you in a direction, you go..."

Half of the banknotes were exposed in the ninja bag.

Before he finished speaking, Duanmu took out a handful of kunai vigorously, and threw it at the old man in front of him at a very short distance.

Without any reaction, the old man was shot in the chest by Kunai, and fell backwards stunned.

The few people in the courtyard have not yet realized how it could become like this.

Obito was overwhelmed by the sudden change of situation, he shouted and was about to rush to beat Duanmu: "Are you crazy? Why do you kill such an old man?"

Obito, who was rushing forward, was held down by Kakashi beside him. Obito was not as strong as Kakashi, so he couldn't move, but he kept struggling.

Kakashi shouted loudly, letting the Shiranui Genma team outside the door hear: "Chase! Genma, let's go together!"

There was a bang from the old man on the ground, and the white smoke dissipated and turned into a piece of wood.

Obito maintained his fangs and claws, standing awkwardly in mid-air.

It's time for Duanmu's favorite lecture: "Walking in the ninja world, there are three kinds of people to be wary of, women, old people and children. Because these three people must have their own merits in the ninja world. Got it, Obito."
