Swing the knife from the leaves

The fighting between the two sides continued on the battlefield, and Lu Jiu was thinking while facing the enemy inside.

Something is wrong, very wrong, the war has been going on for two hours.

Why do the Mist Ninjas continue to fight?

Three thousand versus two thousand, even if the Mist Ninja has more high-end combat power.

They shouldn't have consumed their troops like this. They didn't have an advantage, but were in decline.

Just as Shikaku was thinking, the Fourth Mizukage finally announced his retreat.

For a time, many mist ninjas got rid of their opponents and began to return.

And in a dense forest in the distance.

Qingzheng looked at the two Hyuga clan members lying on the ground expressionlessly.

Put the Byakugan in your hand back into your right eye again.

There was a sound of flesh and blood being pierced, and Qing blinked and rolled his eyes.

Blood flowed from his eyes, but Qing didn't notice it.

Arrogance and impulsiveness prevented the young Hyuuga from seeing the trap.

Hatred and carelessness cost him his sanity and his life.

But this Hinata jounin was defeated by decisiveness.

His excessive hesitation and eagerness to save others caused him to be hit by Qing.

Finally grind it to death.

The white fog dispersed, and the sound of retreat was heard.

Without hesitation, Qing turned and left.

Blood stains are practical and powerful. After experiencing the Byakugan, Qing admitted this fact.

But the blood-stained ninja must be powerful, but Qing sneered.

If people are not good at it, even if they are not good at it, no matter how strong the blood stains are, they will not be able to exert their due power.

After the battle, the bodies of the Mist Ninjas were taken away by the Mist Ninjas as best they could, and those that could not be carried away were destroyed.

Konoha, on the other hand, tried its best to clean up the battlefield.

The medical ninjas prepared by Shikaku were also under his command, trying their best to treat the wounded and reduce casualties.

Just as Shikaku was thinking about the enemy's next move, a cry of grief came.

"Care for husband"

On the battlefield, everyone looked over there.

I saw Hinata Hizu looking at the two Hyuga clan members who fell in front of him with a livid face.

The person crying next to him was the close friend of the dead jounin, who was also a jounin of the Hyuga clan.

Hinata and his party once again lost one of their own clansmen due to carelessness.

The hatred in his heart piled up again, and a raging fire burned in his heart.

However, everyone only looked at it for a while and then turned their heads.

Who hasn’t lost a friend?

Next to every body that fell to the ground, there were one or two people suffering there.

Shikaku didn't participate in this matter.

After all, it was Hinata who violated the rules first, and now there is no consolation for his clan members dying in battle.

Now Shikaku needed to think about the strangeness of this battle.

To prevent the enemy's conspiracy from succeeding.

At dusk, the Fourth Mizukage returned with less than two thousand troops.

They were ordered to rest immediately, the wounded should be treated, and the uninjured should stay in the camp to rest.

Then he took a few ANBU to see Qing's situation.

After realizing that Ao's injury was not serious, Yagura breathed a sigh of relief.

After telling him to take a good rest in the camp, Yagura returned to his tent.

Waving the ANBU to withdraw, Yagura began to regain his strength and restore his chakra.

The night attack is important, it will determine the success or failure of the plan.

It was midnight, inside the Konoha Defense Line Command Post.

Shikaku was discussing tactics with a group of Konoha jounin.

In the hour after that incident, Shikaku slowly understood the thoughts of the fourth Mizukage opposite him.

Therefore, a Hyuga reconnaissance team was dispatched to conduct reconnaissance at the opposite camp.

Finally, the enemy's strength on the defensive line increased.

Then ninjas were sent to the second and third battlefields for verification.

Finally get the current information.

The Mist Ninja is concentrating its forces and wants to attack the first line of defense in one fell swoop.

Although some people don't quite understand the meaning of doing this.

But with the mobilization of the army, many things cannot be deceived.

Shikaku also prepared to defend.

Tactics were issued one by one, and the Jonin present kept leaving the command room to complete their tasks.

"That's it, everyone, go down and prepare!"

"clear"

Everyone looked at this young man with a look of conviction on his face.

After getting along with each other for more than two months, they also admired this younger generation of the Nara family for his outstanding talents.

The rest of the people also left the command room.

Outside, Hinata and Hinata were waiting for something with serious expressions on their faces.

Shikaku walked out and looked at the leader of the Hinata clan.

The two looked at each other, and Shikaku already guessed what the clan leader wanted.

Sighing, Shikaku said to Hinata Hinashi:

"Head of the Hyuga clan, you can lead the Hyuga clan and the troops from the third battlefield to join together and ambush the enemy from the left."

Hearing these words, Rizu bowed half-way to Shikaku, and a big stone fell to the ground in his heart.

Then without a glance, he disappeared from Shikaku's field of vision.

Both of them knew what they just said.

Disobeying the commander's arrangements and violating ninja orders would be punishable by canonical punishment in other troops.

If it were Orochimaru, the Hyuga clan leader should be under house arrest now, even if it causes a rebellion among the Hyuga clan members.

When the troops go to the battlefield, everything must be clearly determined during discussions.

If the order is changed at night, many people will die.

Even if it does not affect the overall situation, family personal relationships should not influence the commander's decision.

If it were Jiraiya or Tsunade, then the Hyuga clan leader would be rejected and would not be able to achieve his goal.

As for the Third Hokage, it's even more difficult to think about.

Hinata Hizashi wouldn't even make the first request.

Playing some loopholes with this old fox to transfer troops, I'm afraid it will cost the entire Hinata.

Currently, only Nara Shikaku can make this decision.

After all, the first time Rizu made this request to him, he had already predicted the current situation.

So when writing the military order, the order was written very vaguely.

It was just a normal transfer for Rizu to take his clan members back.

When fighting at night, the three armies will gather together. It will actually be the same wherever Rizu goes, and it will not affect the overall situation.

He was worried about the safety of his people, which was a common problem for every clan leader.

Shikaku made this smooth favor.

"It's just that I'm still a little unwilling!"

Nara Shikaku showed a sad face for the first time.

Sitting on a rock, looking up at the stars.

There the stars all shine together, shining in the night sky.

Some are dim, some shine brightly.

Shikaku raised his hand towards the brightest star that was neither dim nor dim.

His current situation is almost the same as that of this star.

And in the north a very shining star was shining.

Among young people of the same generation, there are only two people who are qualified.

One is Nara Shikaku, and the other is the Jonin Namikaze Minato.

The most outstanding one among this generation is naturally Namikaze Minato.

But before the war started, Nara Shikaku thought he could stand out with his military exploits.

After all, the actual commander of a battle line is far more important than a powerful jounin.

Even if the war ends, I won't be able to compete with the Sannin and become the Fourth Hokage.

You can also rely on your military exploits to achieve the position of the Fifth Hokage.

But from the moment he agreed to the return of the Hyuga clan leader, Nara Shikaku understood one thing. He was not suitable to become Hokage, and it was impossible to become Hokage.

The dreams of youth and the pride in my heart were almost worn away in this war.

The Fourth Mizukage's decision-making was not decisive, so why was he the same?

Thinking about it now, that mature third-generation master must have seen through everything long ago.

How can one become Hokage without the strength of a shadow or the courage to conquer all.

What's more, the Third Hokage sent himself here, and in his heart he was not optimistic about being the Hokage.

The dream was shattered, but Nara Shikaku thought of his lover, a very gentle girl.

"It's good to go back and be an ordinary jounin."

Shikaku closed his eyes, enjoying the moment of laziness.
