Konoha's New Third Hokage

Chapter 372 Hatake Sakumo Class Enters the Country of Sichuan

Seeing the recent actions of the Sagan Ninja Troop, Uchiha Kagami and others immediately understood that the other party had taken the bait, and the other party could not be unmoved, and the next measures were to step by step make the Sagan Ninja Troop's expectations deeper and deeper , and then make some impulsive action.

The tactics formulated by Uchiha and others focus on psychological warfare. How to lead the opponent into their own trap is the key point, and they have also carried out a number of measures for this:

For example, the severity of the internal cleansing was secretly revealed to the outside world. Excluding those who were actually eliminated, many people were false, and they were not eliminated.Of course, in order not to let the spies of the sand hidden ninja army notice, these people are actually transferred from their posts, but they are not idle, but they are used as hidden surprise soldiers, because they are all members of the elite and have both Considerable fighting power can further convince the opponent of the seriousness of the cleansing.

Internally, the real combat intentions are only revealed to the ninjas above the level of the sub-captain, and they command the ninjas at the next level, thereby deceiving the Sagan ninja troops so that they cannot grasp the true intentions of the Konoha ninja troops. The pressure will be a bit high, because it is necessary to perform the coordination disorder caused by the internal cleaning, but with the ninja quality of the sub-team leader of Konoha Ninja Village, Uchiha mirror believes that they can do it.

Hatake Sakumo is a member of the sub-captain, and he also received orders from above, and because he captured Chiyo’s daughter-in-law Chizuru—in the eyes of the sand hidden ninja—killed——Uchiha Mirror sent him Transferred from the land of the rain to the country of the river, so as to further seduce the other party.

Hatake Sakumo knew that he would definitely become the other party's target. Chiyo was not a grandiose person, and Ruu could be seen as an infatuated person. Facing himself who "killed" Chizuru, he would definitely not remain indifferent, but it was Because of this, he was called to the country of Chuan.

Moreover, since he wanted to show a group disorder, Hatake Sakumo had to fight alone a lot. When he was blocked from the target, he would naturally be under great pressure when he encountered this situation.

However, Sakumo Hatake is not very afraid. He can understand the importance of this. After all, someone has to act as a bait, and he has strength and ability. Who can be more suitable than him?Moreover, there is Uchiha Kagami's own daughter in his class, even his own daughter has been used as a bait, Uchiha Kagami must have made this decision after psychological struggle, the other party has such determination, he What reason is there to back down?

However, after actually visiting in person, Hatake Sakumo realized that this tactic is really troublesome. The key is whether the speed can be held. If it is too loose, the Sand hidden ninja troops may find something abnormal. If it is too strict It will also make the sand hidden ninja troops retreat.

At the same time, just as Hatake Sakumo thought, after learning that Hatake Sakumo had come to the country of Kawa, the sand hidden ninja troops consciously concentrated on his side. If only to protect their own safety, Hatake Sakumo Naturally, he is not worried, as long as no lone army goes deep into the enemy's line, he can survive even without reinforcements for a while, but the problem is how to prevent the Shayin ninja troops from being aware of their intentions.

Because of this, Hatake Sakumo would face some troubles from time to time, but fortunately, he survived with the help of his own strength and the team members in the class.

At this time, Hatake Sakumo received another piece of information that the enemy forces in one of the lines of defense were too strong and his own personnel were almost unable to support them.Considering the distribution of personnel, Hatake Sakumo decided to lead people to attack in person. This is also his usual practice. Because of the order from above, there will always be some slight inconsistencies between the cooperation of the ninjas below. This is what he left on purpose. , although with Konoha Ninja's quality, the combat ability is still not bad when the team is used as a unit, but it is still somewhat insufficient in the face of an enemy that can cooperate.

Of course, because of the number of sand hidden ninjas, the advantage is not obvious, but Hatake Sakumo still hopes to reduce some losses as much as possible. When the situation is more critical, he will personally lead people to attack. In three days, Hatake This is the seventh time that Shuo Mao has led the attack. Counting today's upcoming attack, he has already experienced three fierce battles.

Hatake Sakumo rushed to the battlefield with Asuna, Mizuki, and Yamanaka Risa. At this time, the field was in chaos, and Konoha Ninja had to rely on obstacles to resist the enemy's attack. Even so, the situation was already very dangerous. There are not only the sand hidden ninjas, but also the rock hidden ninjas and hundreds of samurai who came to help.

"Hurry up, the other party can't hold on for long!" One of the sand hermit ninjas shouted loudly, but his voice hadn't fallen for a long time when he saw a sudden flash of thunder not far away, which was built by the rock hermit ninja. The walls are broken like tofu.

"It's Sakumo Hatake!" Someone immediately recognized the identity of the person and hurriedly greeted the others.

These days, because of Hatake Sakumo, the sand ninjas concentrated their forces to fight here, and the pressure was greater than other places. They also noticed that Hatake Sakumo intended to protect the people, so they carried out more flexibly. A guerrilla operation to contain Hatake Sakumo and consume his energy.

Hatake Sakumo took the lead in beheading the Iwagakure ninja behind the rock wall to the ground, and said without looking back: "Go up." Then he rushed up.

Asuna, Mizuki, and Yamanaka Risa followed closely behind, and seeing their appearance, Konoha Ninja, who was already at the end of his battle, seemed to inject a new force, and his morale became strong again.

"It's Lord White Fang and Lord Flash!"

"Everyone, it's time to fight back!"

Ever since Hatake Sakumo and Asuna successively had recognized titles in the ninja world, they have existed like flags among Konoha ninjas. Just their appearance will bring unprecedented effects, not to mention the impact brought by their combat power. This is the role of the strong.

A ninja who can have a name is like the trump card in the ninja army. It has a unique and irreplaceable role. Now Hatake Sakumo and Asuna have such influence.

In addition to them, today Ruixi has gradually started to have such influence. Previously, because she was responsible for protecting Risa in the mountains, she participated in more battles than assistance. Although she is very strong, her performance is not outstanding. , but after her Xueji Jiejie finally awakened, her strength increased rapidly again.

Because of the evil impression brought by the bright red Sharingan and Ruixi's outstanding fire escape level, there is a title called "Witch of Flame" circulating in private, but Ruixi thinks this title is too ugly Well, it's not as concise as "White Fang" and "Glitter", and it gives people the impression that she seems to be bad.

However, the title was given by other people, not by someone. Even if Ruixi thinks it is not very pleasant, this title is still passed down, and it may have a tendency to spread throughout the ninja world in the future.Regarding this, Ruixi, who was helpless but frustrated, had no choice but to face the people in the class, and don't mention this in front of her in the future.

But no matter what, the current Ruixi's strength has been improved again because of the blood succession limit, and he already has the status and strength of "trump cards" with Hatake Sakumo and Asuna. One thing, and with such a three-person team, the strength that can be displayed is naturally very terrifying.

"Art fire escape ho fireball."

"Wind Escape · Fafeng."

Asuna and Ruixi used ninjutsu almost at the same time. While the wind and fire mingled and swelled up, they were sent forward by Asuna's exquisite wind tunnel, dispersing the approaching samurai, and the scorching flames and heat They couldn't help screaming.

Immediately afterwards, Asuna strode forward, the sword swept across the sky like a cold star, and pierced through the warrior in front of her. As long as everyone passed through the vital point, they stopped stabbing and turned to the next target. The ordinary warrior was not her at all. a united enemy.

The only threatening ninja would occasionally sneak out of the gaps between the samurai, looking for opportunities to attack Asuna, but Asuna had noticed their presence early on—because of her practice in the immortal mode, her normal perception ability was limited. She is stronger than ordinary people, and Risa Yamanaka also maintains a spiritual connection with her at all times, telling her the movements of ninjas she feels.

Sand hidden ninja's kunai hadn't touched Asuna, but was cut across the vitals by a faster knife. At the moment the opponent fell, Asuna stepped on the opponent's back, dodging the approaching blade, He jumped out, passed through the encirclement that was about to close, and sprang out like a cannonball, with both feet on the face of the samurai not far away.

Asuna used this as a pedal, jumping many times in succession, and every time a samurai passed by, a line of blood burst out, and the samurai almost fell down without reacting.

Except for the samurai who experienced hard training in the Iron Kingdom, there are only a few elite samurai troops in the five major countries that can compete with ninjas, and these samurai troops are either on key battlefields or protecting daimyo and nobles in the capital. .

After Asuna jumped again, her eyes narrowed slightly, and before falling, she cast Wind Escape, dragging her body away, and the place where she was going to fall suddenly drilled out of a rock thorn, and the rock who saw this scene The hidden ninja couldn't help but "tsk".

At this time, Asuna rushed to this person's side, first cut off the opponent's hand that was about to pull out Kunai, and then kicked the opponent's jaw heavily. Regardless of her light weight, she was not weak at all. The opponent was panting violently under this blow, and immediately died of broken bones.

After Asuna saw the other party fall, she didn't stop at all. Her body was as fast as a gust of wind, and the sword she swung was like a star across the sky. Few people could survive in front of her. Even if they survived, it was because of Asuna's fighting rhythm. For the sake of , shift the target to other people.

At this time, the sand ninja and the rock ninja masters are all facing Hatake Sakumo, but the facts have proved that they are not opponents at all against Hatake Sakumo, at most they can barely keep For his own life, if he were to deal with Asuna, he might still be able to fight evenly—of course, if he faced Asuna who had turned on the fairy mode, the ending would not be much different.

"Retreat!" Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, the sand hidden ninjas immediately chose to retreat, and left after dropping a large number of cover measures such as gas bombs and smoke bombs.

While backing away, the sand hidden ninjas also felt terrified. The reason why they tried to duel was because they knew that Hatake Sakumo had gone to the battlefield twice today. It is reasonable to say that the physical strength was not small, but they still possessed such amazing strength. In terms of combat effectiveness, two high-level ninjas on our side lost two of them, as expected of Konoha Baiya.

Seeing this, Hatake Sakumo did not choose to pursue. He was not sure whether the opponent was luring the enemy to go deep. The Konoha position here needs to be reorganized. How could he choose to pursue under this situation.

After the sand hidden ninja retreated, the Konoha ninjas immediately cheered, happy for the victory of the battle.

Compared with Hatake Sakumo and Asuna, Ruixi still has to protect the intelligence officer Risa Yamanaka in the class, and because of her improved strength, she can protect it more easily, while using a large-scale fire escape to kill the approaching people. Forced to retreat, when someone comes out, the Sharingan can also predict the action first, and then quickly assassinate or defend against sneak attacks. Of course, there will still be mistakes.

"It's okay, Risa." Ruixi looked at Risa Yamanaka nervously. In the melee just now, Risa Yamanaka was accidentally stabbed in the shoulder by the opponent's Kunai, and blood flowed out.

"Well, it's okay." Risa Yamanaka smiled and said that she was fine. She took out the potion and bandage from the ninja bag, and injected the antidote into her body. Sand hidden ninjas basically carry the ninja Poison, so every Konoha ninja will carry an antidote.

The new poison used by Chiyo last time caused some troubles to Konoha Ninja Village. Tsunade immediately began to research a new antidote, so Chiyo's poison once again lost its effect.

This made Chiyo very angry. She realized that she had really underestimated this medical ninja. The other party was the granddaughter of Senju Hashirama. After all, she still had some skills. Although she appeared as a medical ninja, according to Ruo, Tsuna The hand also has a very strong fighting ability.

Strong female ninjas are nothing. After the establishment of Ninja Village, their number has increased rapidly. Chiyo has seen many, but there are very few female ninjas who are both strong and have a deep medical level, because Chiyo is also like this A ninja who looks like a ninja will inevitably be a little offended.

Risa Yamanaka is not a serious injury, except that her shoulder hurts a little and she can't lift it up, which may affect the speed of seal formation, so it's nothing serious. After returning to the camp to receive medical ninja treatment, even this will not happen .

When Hatake Sakumo and Asuna came back, they saw that Risa Yamanaka was fine, so they reorganized the position, transferred some personnel from other places, and then went back first.

On the way back, I didn’t encounter any troubles. The team leader Sakumo Hatake did not have many battles. Most of the time, he was basically in command, but in other words, when he was needed, it was inevitable. It is a very troublesome task, and the risk will be relatively high.

Back at the camp, Risa Yamanaka's injuries were treated by medical ninjas, and she recovered quickly. When everyone came to their camp, Sakumo Hatake asked, "Do you feel all right these days?"

"It's nothing." Both Asuna and Mizuki thought so. Their strength and the presence of Hatake Sakumo were just a little bit of pressure.

"What about you, Risa?" Hatake Sakumo asked while looking at Risa in the mountains.

"It's okay, I can continue, it's not too troublesome." Risa Yamanaka smiled at Hatake Sakumo, although the battle these days is more troublesome than in the past, because there are more details to pay attention to But she has no complaints. While it is dangerous, it also means the higher the merit.

Risa Yamanaka's current meritorious service is enough to be promoted to the level of a special jounin, but because she still has to work under the name of Hatake Sakumo, who is still a special jounin, she cannot be promoted yet, but as long as Hatake Sakumo is promoted, she It is bound to be able to rise. After being promoted to a special jounin, it is only one step away from the village high-level jonin, and it will also have a very high status in the family.

Today's Konoha Ninja Village values ​​merit very much. In the same ninja level, the amount of merit is linked to salary and status on the side. Even family ninjas cannot ignore it, and civilian ninjas value it even more. As long as With ability and credit, there is room for promotion.

Risa Yamanaka, following behind Sakumo Hatake, must be able to make a lot of contributions, and she must be among the best in the same level. This has been proved now. She has no reason to say that she can't. Although it is dangerous, in terms of safety, I am afraid there is no place higher than this class.
