Konoha Tatsuno

On the outskirts of Yamanashi City, a dense group of buildings appeared on a mountain col with its back.

Most of these buildings were newly built not long ago. A wall several meters high was built outside the building complex. A huge plaque hung directly above the gate of the wall with the three characters "An Shitang" written on it.

This is Anshitang.

It was already night. Under the night Anshitang was like a small town with countless lights on. Pedestrians could be seen walking on the street under the shadow of the faint buildings.

After more than a year of continuous development, Anshitang’s population has exceeded one thousand, and it has become a small town integrating production and life.

On the outer city wall, there are personnel on duty in the arrow towers on each section of the city wall.

These people are all wandering ninjas hired by Jin Yoshida at a large price, and there are 80 of them.

For a small town, equipped with such a defensive force, it can be said that the defense is tight.

On the tower, a middle-aged man was standing on the attic, his eyes fixed on the road outside the tower.

According to the orders passed down from above, the enemy should attack tonight.

"Lord Ishikawa, will the enemy really come tonight?"

Behind the middle-aged man, several men dressed as ninjas stood quietly behind him, and one of them asked nervously.

A middle-aged man named Ishikawa is a wandering ninja with chunin strength. After being recruited by Jin Yoshida, he served as a captain of the Anseido escort team.

"I don't know! However, no matter whether the enemy comes tonight or not, we can't be careless at all." Ishikawa shook his head and said solemnly.

The middle-aged Ishikawa no longer has much pursuit of his ninja career. He is very satisfied with being able to find a relatively decent and stable job in Anshido.

Ishikawa does not want to lose this job easily.

"Yes"

Several people behind him respectfully accepted the order.

However, under the dim light, someone's eyes showed nervousness and fear.

Like Ishikawa, they were once wandering ninjas who were at the bottom of the ninja world, and their strength was only at the genin level.

In the hearts of these people, they have no idea of ​​being loyal to An Shitang.

Recently, the Narita and Taniguchi families have been making a lot of noise.

It is said that the number of wandering ninjas and wandering samurai gathered under the two families has reached more than 200.

Among them, there are several ninjas at the Jonin level.

Such a force is already extremely huge for a wandering ninja in a small country like Tian Country.

Facing such an enemy, they felt really guilty.

If Ishikawa hadn't always had a high prestige among this group of people, they might have started discussing how to escape in private.

"coming!"

Not long after they finished speaking, Ishikawa's deep voice came from in front of them.

sassy sassy~

Amidst a series of piercing sounds, a large number of figures flashed across the road to the front door of Anshi Hall.

Under the moonlight and lights, you can clearly see that most of these people are dressed in black night clothes and are dressed as ninjas. There are about 200 people in total.

Among the crowd, there were two groups of people standing at the front.

They were also the few in the group not wearing black night clothes.

These two groups of people were Inoue, Muzan and his group from Kusakure Village, and Yuito, Shisha and others from Takigakure Village.

"Two adults, An Shitang's defense is not tight. Do you want to attack head-on?"

In the crowd, a person came out and said respectfully to the two leaders, Inoue and Yuito.

This person's name is Fujimoto, and he is a wandering ninja leader recruited by the Narita and Taniguchi families at a large price.

He is also the only jounin among the wandering ninjas with many ninjutsu.

Behind Fujimoto, there were two men following closely.

One of these two people was named Fushige and the other was named Maruyama. They were two wandering ninjas at the chuunin level.

The two have been Fujimoto's good brothers for many years.

"Wait a minute! Let's wait until their words come out. This time we attack An Shitang. We want doctors and formulas, not to destroy An Shitang."

After hearing Fujimoto's inquiry, Inoue said calmly.

The two groups of people from Caoyin Village and Longying Village have been in Tian Country for a while, and they have a certain understanding of each other.

The two villages have reached a tacit understanding in private. After taking over An Shitang, the doctor and the formula will be divided equally between the two sides.

Although Yuito, the Seven-Tailed Jinchuuriki of Takigakure Village, is the most powerful among the people present, he is a reckless man. Normally, these matters are mainly directed by Inoue.

Weiren relies on his own strength and is not afraid of people from Caoyin Village secretly stumbling upon him.

"Yes"

Hearing this, Fujimoto respectfully accepted the order.

A group of people stood quietly in front of the main entrance of Anshitang.

"Master Ishikawa, what should we do?"

On the city tower, a group of wandering ninjas on duty suddenly became confused when they saw this formation.

"Don't panic! Let's hold on for now! The adults will definitely come to help later!" Ishikawa gritted his teeth and shouted in a deep voice.

The dozen or so ninjas who stayed on the city wall that Ishikawa was responsible for could still hold on, but some of the other wandering ninjas on the city walls had already begun to run away.

The difference in strength is too great!

They don't want to die for An Shitang in vain!

During the confrontation, the commotion on An Shitang's side began to spread at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Soon, only Ishikawa and a dozen wandering ninjas were left holding on on all the walls.

On the city wall, big beads of sweat began to fall on Ishikawa's forehead.

His heart was also shaken.

Around Ishikawa, the remaining 40 or so wandering ninjas were all panicking.

sassy sassy~

Just when Ishikawa and the others could no longer hold on any longer, there were several sounds of sound breaking through the air on the tower, and several figures appeared in front of Ishikawa and the others.

The visitors were Tatsuno and Ye Cang who used pseudonyms, and a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old and Honglian.

This young man is wearing a long robe, and the robe is also printed with a Bodhisattva wearing a cassock. His fair and handsome face and narrow eyebrows reveal a bit of sharpness.

This person is the clone that has successfully transplanted Uchiha Hui's pair of kaleidoscope sharingan eyes.

Tatsuno named him Ksitigarbha.

Because the body contains the genes of the Uchiha clan, the Mangekyō Sharingan did not show strong rejection on Jizo and could be successfully opened and closed.

The only drawback is that Jizo's chakara is consumed faster when the Sharingan is open.

For Tatsuno's clone, which already needs to be "recharged" regularly, this shortens his combat life even more.

"Not bad! The entire army has not been wiped out yet!"

Tatsuno glanced at Ishikawa and the others and said calmly.

"Honglian, you stay and stay here with them."

After explaining to Honglian, Tatsuno and the others flashed again, and a teleportation technique appeared on the road outside the city.

After successfully awakening the Crystal Escape, Honglian's strength has been greatly improved.

However, due to his age and chakra capacity, he is probably only at Chunin level.

If it weren't for Honglian's pleading and considering the special nature of Jingdun, Tatsuno would never have let her go to the battlefield.

At the critical moment, Guren's Crystal Escape might also be able to play some role.

On the opposite side, looking at the three Tatsunos who appeared on the road, Inoue and others had a strange look in their eyes.

"You guys go up and try them."

Inoue opened his mouth and gave instructions to the three Fujimotos on the side.
