Unusually tacitly, Chiba's side and the rest of the ninja world's major ninja villages began to accumulate supplies and actively prepare for war at the same time, and finally, a month later, the war began.

"Quick, keep up!"

In the country of wind, Luo Sha led the team to continue to move in one direction.

It was none other than Sha Shinobi who started declaring war on Chiba for the first time.

And not long after Sha Shinobi announced his battle against Chiba, Konoha also declared war.

Although Sarutobi, the Hokage, seems to be a bit pedantic and peace-loving, he doesn't want to go to war even if there is even the slightest possibility.

But in the end, he can still recognize the situation, with the strength and aggressiveness shown by Chiba, even if he doesn't attack Chiba, Chiba will eventually come to him for trouble, yes, this time, it is rare, Konoha who has always advocated peace is unusually firm and positive in his attitude towards the country of Chiba Akatsuki.

In the conference room of Xiaonin Village, Chiba was constantly discussing something with Xiao Nan and other high-level officials.

"Not surprisingly, just as we expected. ”

Long before, Chiba had asserted that if Konoha and Sha Shinobi attacked, then they would definitely start by attacking the Land of Rain.

Judging from the map, Chiba Akatsunoku has such a huge area, except for the snow country that absolutely no one wants to fight, there is only such a prominent part as the rain country, and only here borders Konoha and Shanin.

And from the perspective of strategic purpose, the fundamental purpose of Konoha and Sand Ninja, the big ninja villages, to attack Chiba is not to take revenge, but to weaken them, because the strength shown by Chiba is too strong.

In this way, the rain ninja village, which accounts for almost one-third of the strength of the country of Akatsuki, is the first wing they want to cut off, and in addition, as a nail in the big front, it is impossible for them to cross here and attack the rear of Chiba.

"Chiba-sama... I suggest that all the ninjas in the Rain Ninja Village return to the Land Country, so that we can concentrate all our forces, and in addition, the terrain of the Earth Country is also conducive to defense...", a mid-level Shinobi suggested cautiously.

And this middle-level suggestion was quickly recognized by many people.

Judging from the terrain of the Land of Rain, no matter how you fight, you are prone to face the unfavorable situation of being attacked on your back, and you may even be cut off from the back road.

However, Chiba rejected the plan unusually decisively.

"I won't allow these guys to invade and occupy the Land of Rain at will. ”

This is not just the meaning of Chiba, but also the meaning of Yahiko and Kominami Nagato.

As people from the country of rain, they would not allow this country to fall into such a situation.

Perhaps, the ninja village of the regular army may not do anything to the civilians, but a large number of hired ninjas and miscellaneous armies such as samurai who accompany them to transport supplies will inevitably plunge the country into a tragic situation, and those bandits who often take advantage of the chaos to gather and wreak havoc are far more terrible scourges than ninjas, and will inevitably bring irreparable damage to the country.

"Moreover, I am sure that I will be able to exert the stronger combat power of our side in the Land of Rain, I used only a few hundred men to fight against the thousands of people of Hanzo for several months, relying on my familiarity with the environment and geography of the Land of Rain, here, I will let them know what real fear is. ”

As Chiba's words fell, the ninjas looked at each other for a moment and nodded, they still believed in Chiba's wisdom and tactical ability.

And in fact, being able to exert stronger combat power in the Land of Rain is the reason why Chiba really chose to put the battlefield in the Land of Rain.

Although, back then, they couldn't use the ability to use Nagato's ability here as if they had opened God's vision, but a large number of ninjutsu with the help of rain perception in Rain Ninja Village were still available, as well as numerous secret passages, underground undercurrents, and various arrangements that had been going on, which could completely bring great advantages to Chiba's side.

Soon, with Chiba's order, a large number of ninjas began to assemble towards the Land of Rain.

The Land of Rain, the former residence of Chiba and Yahiko Konan Nagato, Chiba and several people said something with emotion.

For this place, no matter how much time has passed, no matter where it is, they will never forget it, it has all their happiest and most poignant memories.

"Is it all arranged?"

"Hmm. Xiao Nan kept reporting with a document.

"The civilians in the southeast of the Land of Rain have all been evacuated, and the civilians in the central part are still being evacuated. ”

"Very well, so that we don't have to worry about anything. ”

If it were another ninja village, it might not necessarily waste a lot of manpower and material resources to relocate civilians, but for Chiba, it is natural that they will protect these civilians as much as possible, which is their fundamental philosophy.

"Now that you're ready, let's go. ”

With that, Chiba stood up and took the lead towards the front line of the war.

"In the past, we have never had the ability to protect this country, and we can only let this country silently endure the bullying of the big countries, and this time, I will definitely teach them a bloody lesson. ”

On the other side, the army of Sha Shinobi and Konoha had also marched towards the Land of Rain early, but it had been a week now, and it was still only a little bit advanced.

It's not because of their combat strength, it's not because of how strong the defense on Chiba's side is.

In fact, Chiba's main defense with the help of the geographical advantage is still in some dangerous places in the rear, and the harassment and defense in the distance in front are very weak.

However, it really can't stand the fear of Sha Shinobi and Konoha for Chiba.

Chiba was attacked by a water back then, and the three thousand rain ninja army of Hanzo was wiped out, and it is still talked about by the ninja world.

Later, an avalanche drowned the 5,000 main forces of the Misty Ninja Rock Ninja Coalition Army, completely crippling them, which was all a lesson in blood.

That's why they are moving forward cautiously, even if it takes a lot of time, they have to explore as clearly as possible to ensure absolute safety, and they have to send a large number of perceptual ninjas to explore the path every short period of advancement, for fear of being overshadowed by Chiba.

In this way, there were only two days to go, and they ran for more than a week before they reached their destination.

Finally, after spending a long time checking for danger, the armies of Sha Shinobi and Konoha arrived at Chiba's defense line at the same time, and the real battle was about to begin.
