Konoha's Rock King Emperor

Chapter 15: Standby

The sudden encounter severely damaged the strength of the Ichigaya team. Although the leading jounin himself had his right arm temporarily sewn back by Zhongli, although the remaining Chinayuki and Ishida were not injured, the two genin were still very tired mentally.

"This stronghold attack mission is an overloaded arrangement. In the area of ​​​​the Rock Corridor, the main activities are Iwagakure ninjas. If there are several more encounters, the consequences of our team will be difficult to predict."

Arranging six strongholds at once, although they are not far apart, is really too energy-consuming. Coupled with sudden encounters, such as the battle just now, the Ichigaya team was caught off guard. If it weren't for Zhongli's outstanding performance, they would have almost lost all their strength. members destroyed.

No matter what, Ichigaya Jounin is the core force of the team. Zhongli now picked up a prepared Bingliang Pill and asked him to take it. He then started to use medical ninjutsu and carefully connected Ichitani Jounin's meridians. After all, the treatment just now was It was rough and wild, making sure to restore Ichigaya's strength as soon as possible. Now Zhongli had time to slowly deal with Ichidani's injuries.

Covered by the light of gentle chakra, Ichigaya Jounin sighed softly. He didn't know the unreasonableness and difficulty of this mission, but Konoha's frontline commander Mimura Jounin was a Konoha from beginning to end. An invincible military adventurer.

Completely ignoring the actual situation of Konoha on the front line at this stage, they arranged a bold assault plan, hoping to dismantle the entire Iwagakure defense in one fell swoop through tonight's assault.

Not only was Zhongli not optimistic about this action, but even Ichigaya, who had been participating in the frontline combat conference, was not optimistic about the military action arranged by Memura. It was an act that was completely divorced from reality.

The moment after taking the Bingliang Pill, Jonin Ichitani let out a light sigh, and he could clearly feel that the recovery rate of chakra in his body was accelerating...

"Teacher Ichigaya, it seems that the Kuhara family's Bingliangwan is indeed of much better quality than ordinary ones."

Chinayuki and Ishida, who had also just taken the pills, both praised the Jiuhara family's pills. Compared with the pills produced by the ninja school, they were so much more effective. No wonder the price difference between the two was so big.

Ichigaya was a little confused in his heart. The Kuhara family's Bingliang Pills were notoriously expensive and ineffective. Why did they become effective this time?

The effectiveness of the Bingliang Pills was enhanced. Naturally, Zhongli filtered these batches of Bingliang Pills and used the power of the earth to transform them so that the Bingliang Pills could perform their intended functions.

After a brief recovery of chakra, the four of them rushed towards the fifth stronghold. Unexpectedly, the fifth stronghold had already been abandoned by Iwagakure, which cast a shadow on the hearts of the four. The subsequent third and fourth strongholds were not Any ninja was stationed there, and the information in the entire base was taken away. It was obvious that Iwakakure had begun to take action.

Zhongli even vaguely noticed that the dangerous atmosphere around the rock corridor was getting more and more dangerous, and some other Konoha ninjas had even had trouble in this big attack mission.

"Teacher Ichigaya, I suggest retreating."

"Ahem...I'll contact Jonin Mimura."

Although Ichigaya Jounin sent a scroll message to Mimura Jounin in one direction, after waiting for a while, he received a reply that he was on standby. Although he did not ask to continue attacking the stronghold, Zhongli had serious doubts about the professionalism of Konoha's war command system. Suspect.

Mistakes in intelligence work and poor control of fighter planes. If not for the halo of Namikaze Minato later, Mimura Hamaki would have sent a large number of Konoha ninjas to the front line, leaving only a few people surrounded by Iwagakure. He was simply the most idiot among idiots.

Jonin Ichitani inquired about the environment of the surrounding rock corridor and sighed: "Find a place to wait."

Naturally, it was impossible to stay in this stronghold, so Ichigaya Jonin decided to take the three genin to other areas of the rock corridor to find a suitable hiding place. Although Hyōryōmaru had restored a lot of chakra, Ichigaya knew that his strength was not half of its original strength.

Walking on the cliff of the rock corridor, Zhongli remained silent, while Qian Nayuki tried to lighten the atmosphere: "Well... maybe in other directions, Konoha's companions have finished fighting and come to support us?"

"I'm afraid that due to problems with the command system, other teams will be in dire straits. Maybe in the next few hours, we will need us to support other people on the front line or...including themselves."

"This..."

It was better to escape first and consider the rest later. Zhongli soon used his ability to sense the earth to find a small tunnel hidden deep in the swamp deep inside the rock corridor. According to his observation, the end of the tunnel should be an abandoned place. Iwagakure base.

Although Ichidani Jounin was a little doubtful of Zhongli's judgment, since he was the Awakened Earth Attribute Chakra Blood Successor, there might be a way to find out these things.

So Ichigaya took the trio directly to the swamp area. As a result, he continued to find a tiny passage in the swamp at his feet. At first, the narrow passage felt depressing, but it became wider later. There is no problem with people walking side by side.

However, the tidal wind blowing in front of them became even hotter. In a short time, the two genin, Chinayuki and Ishida, were sweating profusely, and their whole bodies were soaked to the skin. Jonin Ichitani was also very uncomfortable, but he still followed Zhongli's words and insisted on continuing his exploration.

After walking a few dozen meters further, Zhongli probably penetrated deep into the rock corridor, and the passage finally disappeared. When he walked out of the passage, there was a larger swamp area in front of him, and there was also an artificially polished area, which was obviously the abandoned Iwagakure base.

At a glance, within a few hundred meters of the surrounding area, there were muddy areas with black blisters everywhere. The gushing hot air created a thermal vortex, hovering in the sky. Qian Nayuki and Ishida were a little afraid to take a step back, but Ichigaya gently comforted him: "Don't be afraid. Although the environment here is harsh, we do need to rest."

The hot tidal wind was generated out of thin air over the swamp, flowed out along the small channel in Zhongli, and then brought in fresher air from outside the channel, forming a balance of convection.

The swamp is surrounded by tall black soil mounds, and on the edge on the other side, there are dozens of strange plants of different colors. Zhongli stepped forward to observe the group of strange trees, and only heard the strange trees roaring and at the same time emitting a kind of strange sound. The bewitching voice tried to lure Zhongli to get closer to them.

"Zhongli..."

"Don't worry, I'm just curious to find out."

After observing from a distance for a while, Zhongli suddenly asked: "Teacher Ichigaya, has the Konoha frontline sent a signal for help?"

Before Zhongli could finish speaking, Ichigaya Jounin, who sat down to rest, gave a wry smile: "Zhongli, please stop teasing me. Mimura Jounin has updated the mission. He hopes to go to the B12 area for support within three hours. The Konoha Three over there The team may have been ambushed."

Three teams?

Wouldn't that mean there were more Iwa ninjas surrounding them?

The key is that even three hours of rest on the spot can't completely eliminate everyone's fatigue and injuries. You can't rely entirely on yourself, a medical ninja, right?
