Konoha's Destiny Twins

"I remember that Jiraiya-senpai has left Platycodon City and is now on his way to support Fallen Leaf City." Yamanaka Haiichi added.

Jiraiya personally led a team to rescue Luoye City. The biggest reason was probably because his two most popular disciples were trapped in Luoye City.

Everyone present knew this.

"Minato... and Yoshimaru... are indeed really powerful, able to hold on to Fallen Leaf City for so long..." Akimichi Choza said with some emotion.

Indeed, Minato was the biggest contributor to the fact that a remnant army could persist in resisting Sunagakure's army for such a long time without falling. The extraordinary commanding ability and terrifying speed he showed in this battle made all Sunagakure ninjas fearful.

The name "yellow flash" has spread like wildfire.

It seems that a dazzling morning star is about to rise in Konoha.

"I just don't think Sunagakure is only planning to plot Platycodon Castle..." At this time, the uneasiness in Tsunade's heart became more intense.

Nara Shikaku's mind was spinning very fast. He had already considered this, so he immediately asked: "Tsunade-senpai means that Sunagakure's delay in capturing Fallen Leaf City was intentional? The entire Fallen Leaf City is just a bait? Yes?" A bait to lure Jiraiya-senpai to come for support?"

"...Yes." Tsunade paused and then confirmed.

"Concerning this, I think you can rest assured, Tsunade-senpai. This is the territory of the Land of Fire, and all information will be passed back as soon as possible. If you want to encircle and annihilate Jiraiya-senpai, how many ninjas should Sunagakure mobilize? So? It is impossible for large-scale troop mobilization to be hidden from our intelligence system."

"As for the Konoha ninjas who can enter the ANBU, their strength is undoubted, and their intelligence is also conclusive. Just like this time they were able to discover Sunagakure's withdrawal trend at the first time." Nara Shikaku said solemnly.

But Tsunade still frowned, and Nara Shikaku's words did not calm her uneasy heart...

That thick cloud has been lingering in my heart...

"Don't you even have this little confidence in Jiraiya?" Orochimaru narrowed his pale golden eyes slightly and continued to ask, "Or do you disagree with my plan because you are concerned about Jiraiya's safety? "

"No... I just..." Tsunade was at a loss for words for a moment, and she said intermittently, "I... just..."

Orochimaru once again interrupted Tsunade's hesitation and said solemnly: "Jiraiya is very strong."

Then he seemed to be lost in memories and whispered: "He is stronger than before..."

"Just Sunagakure can't do anything to him."

"Instead of caring about Jiraiya's safety and the situation of Platycodon City, we should focus on this battle first. Weakening Sunagakure's strength as much as possible is the greatest damage to them and Konoha. help……"

'Okay... Orochimaru is right to say that... As for Jiraiya... it should be fine. ’

"...I agree with Orochimaru's plan." Tsunade finally convinced herself, she said.

In the dense forest of the Land of Fire, a figure was traveling at an extreme speed that could not be caught by ordinary eyesight.

His destination is in the south of the Fire Country.

After a brief exchange with the Konoha reconnaissance team, Qingshui learned about the critical situation of Fallen Leaf City and the news that Jiraiya was leading an army to rescue Fallen Leaf City.

So after explaining the general situation and passing the blame to Kakuto, he changed his original plan to return to Konoha and instead headed south alone.

Indeed... he has very important information that must be conveyed to the Sandaime Hokage personally, and he also has very big doubts in his heart that he needs to personally verify with the Sandaime Hokage...

But now his companions are in danger...

At this time, Qingshui kept thinking about the scene Madara showed him...

The blond Minato fought with one enemy to the point of exhaustion...

And that thin girl figure...

The extremely dazzling scarlet that was dripped to save him...

subconsciously,

The clear water continues to squeeze the limits of the body. Every cell in the body seemed to be singing in joy, frantically synthesizing chakra, and then pouring it all into the feet and waist...

His teleportation technique was faster.

Fallen Leaf City.

The impenetrable Sunagakure army that besieged Luoye City launched another charge.

"Minato, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive this time..." Yoshimaru looked around, and there were only a few of his companions still standing. They finally fought to the point where they ran out of gas and lamps...

God did not favor them, and no miracle occurred.

Because the Konoha reinforcements they expected have not yet arrived.

Could it be that they were really abandoned?

Seeing Sunagakure's army approaching again, despair rose in everyone's hearts.

How should they overcome this difficulty? !

In fact, Minato knew very well that they would not be able to overcome this difficulty this time.

There are less than 30 Konoha ninjas still standing here. Facing thousands of Sunagakure ninjas, what can they do to resist? !

But he still took the lead, standing firmly at the front of the team, pulling out the trident kunai that had been stained dark red by blood with one hand, pointing the sharp tip of the sword directly at the dark enemy in the distance, and then said in a deep voice : "We cannot retreat, let alone give up. If we fall, there will be so many companions behind us, and they will definitely die."

“We’ve held on for so long, why can’t we hold on again?”

"They have entrusted their lives to us, and we cannot let down their expectations." Minato's eyes were full of unyielding perseverance.

"You have to walk the path you choose even on your knees." Encouraged by Minato, Yoshimaru cheered up again.

Not only him, but the other twenty or so Konoha ninjas cheered up and took out kunai and shurikens, preparing for this final battle.

In fact, in the previous battle, Minato risked his life to briefly open a gap in the enemy's defense line. However, only a handful of wounded people broke through from Konoha's side, and many more retreated after being intercepted. Fallen Leaf City.

These injuries that were unable to break out in time were also the main reason why Minato and Yoshimaru did not choose to leave alone.

Indeed, with the strength of the two of them, it is not difficult to create a way out; however, trying to take everyone away is tantamount to wishful thinking.

Originally, before Sunagakure completely completed the encirclement, those injured people still had a glimmer of hope... Now faced with this iron barrel-like interception, with the mobility of the wounded people, there was no way they could escape Sunagakure's pursuit.

So Minato and Yoshimaru jointly decided to stay and hold on until Konoha's reinforcements arrived, thus saving everyone.

However, God did not fulfill his wishes...
