Chapter 56: After the Break

"Thunder Escape, Thunder Dragon Claw!" A thunderbolt claw as thin as dry wood suddenly burst out, grabbing the misty ninja who had just fled into the woods, and the fine static on the thunder claw suddenly made the misty ninja's whole body numb and unable to move.

"Hmm, that's ......" Liangmu asked in surprise as he looked at the lightning claws in the distance, puzzled.

"This is probably Terita's ninjutsu, but ......" the corners of Amber's eyes twitched and said, "When did this guy come up with this inexplicable ninjutsu again?"

Sure enough, after a while, Teita and Sissi came over with the captured Mist Shinobi grinning.

"Well, Amber, the new ninjutsu I've invented is pretty powerful, isn't it?" Teita smirked.

"You'd better practice the ninjutsu you know before you invent it, because if you continue like this, your growth will be limited sooner or later. Amber shook her head.

"Hey, you're jealous of me. Teita pursed his lips, threw the misty shinobi to the ground and said, "What should I do with this guy?"

"Take it back for interrogation. โ€

When the four of them returned to the temporary camp, they found that the camp was quite lively, and the other party was unprepared for this operation, and actually captured more than a dozen mist ninjas, eliminating nearly hundreds of enemies, the most eye-catching of which was the team where the Uchiha Shisui was only thirteen years old, and the four of them captured five mist ninja elites, all of whom were said to have been captured by Shisui alone, and the news came out, which immediately shocked everyone.

"Tsk, it's so powerful Uchiha Shisui, Teita, you still have to work hard. Amber said with a smile.

"Hmph, he's the son of the elder of the family, like me, and he was ostracized by the family. A hint of hatred flashed in Teita's eyes, and he said with a cold face.

"That's not what I meant. Amber shook her head and said, "Teruma, your talent is actually no worse than Zhishui, you are just too half-hearted, you can do everything but you can't use anything well, so you wasted your talent." โ€

"Half-heartedly, what do you mean?"

"Everyone's energy is limited, if you want to make progress, you have to make trade-offs to plan for the future, and put your energy into the most critical place, so as to improve efficiency, and you, always want to invent new ninjutsu, but every ninjutsu is very average, and the result is that the strength has not improved much, and time has been wasted. โ€

Hui Tai lowered his head and pondered for a while, realizing that he had indeed wasted a lot of time, and the original plan to improve the attack routine and cultivation of the Thunder Escape Earth Snake and the cultivation of physical skills had also been delayed.

"Okay, okay, if you have a point, Sissi, let's go back. Teita waved his hand and took Sissi back to the tent.

"Dead face-saving guys. Amber smiled and shook her head helplessly.

In the next period of time, through the interrogation of the captives, a considerable amount of information was obtained, and almost everyone took action to rush around, raiding and encircling the various hidden strongholds of the fog ninja, and the large and small battles spread almost to the entire coastline, and the fog ninja, who couldn't react for a while, was forced to hide in Tibet, and the scope of activity became smaller and smaller, coupled with the trouble caused by the lack of supplies, and if this continued, they would only be wiped out.

On the other hand, the Northern War, Konoha ninjas and Yun Ninja have already been inseparable, four months ago rushed into the border of the Fire Country, Yun Ninja adopted the unrestrained tactics of blooming on all sides to fight and feed the war, plundering wherever they went, even if the Fire Country evacuated a large number of civilians in time, but there were still many villages that had not yet had time to evacuate were attacked and plundered, at the same time, Yun Ninja continued to send reinforcements into Konoha, causing more and more chaos in the northern region, almost all the ninjas who could be dispatched in Konoha Village were sent to the north, and for a time there were enough tens of thousands of ninjas to fight in the northern region of a quarter of the Fire Countryใ€‚

This chaos lasted for a while, and the Konoha ninja who had the advantage of the local area gradually grasped the initiative, and began to encircle and suppress Yun Ren little by little, if nothing else, in the end, Yun Ren would definitely be driven out of the country of fire, but the accident happened, Yun Ninja Village was unwilling to fail, and actually dispatched four generations of Thunder Shadow and Human Pillar Force, dozens of the most elite troops fought everywhere under the leadership of Thunder Shadow, almost no one could stop it, and the situation was about to reverse.

However, fortunately, there is still Bo Feng Shuimen in Konoha Village, and Bo Feng Shuimen, who led many elites, showed desperate strength when he fought with Lei Ying for the first time, and he forced the four generations of Lei Ying and Ren Zhu to be restrained by one person, and the war fell into a stalemate for a while.

~~~~~~

Two months later, the Eastern Peninsula of the Fire Country.

Under Orochimaru's encirclement and suppression strategy, the fog ninja has been defeated and forced into the easternmost peninsula region of the Fire Country, and the ninjas of Konoha are slowly advancing under the personal leadership of Orochimaru, steadily and steadily wearing down the will of the fog ninja, which is also to reduce casualties and try to preserve combat power.

At the rear of the battle line, Amber, Teita, and Sissi were standing quietly on the top of the mountain, watching the large forest with binoculars.

"I said, why did Orochimaru-sama put us in the rear to guard us? Hui Tai said listlessly.

"Alright, Teita. Sissi walked over, handed Hui Tai a glass of water and said, "The rear is also very good, now the fog ninja may resist desperately at any time, it is too dangerous to stay on the front line." โ€

"That's right. Amber held the binoculars and looked around, and said, "With our strength, staying in a chaotic place like the front line not only doesn't have much effect, but it may also kill you at any time, so it's better to go to the rear to guard and prevent other fog ninjas from quietly attacking the rear of the battle line." โ€

"But this is too boring, we've been here for a week, and we can't cultivate with peace of mind in order to preserve our combat strength, can we just sit here and bask in the sun?" Keita complained.

"You can stay in the tent. โ€

"Huh~~~"

After all, in fact, Amber felt that Orochimaru deliberately transferred the three of them away from the front line, not only the three of them, but almost all the younger and talented ninjas were arranged in the rear, this war has already caused Konoha heavy losses, if these young generations who represent the future are also killed and injured, then the future Konoha will definitely fall into a dilemma, which is the most deadly.

Night......

A faint mist shrouded the forest, and the hazy moonlight made everything around it faintly unvisible.

Amber put away her binoculars and checked the surrounding security traps, and quietly hid in a hidden place to keep watch for the night.

Teita and Sissi were already asleep, and they would come to replace Amber Vigil in the middle of the night.

In the quiet of the night, Amber remembered the hellish battlefield on earth. After more than two months of running around, Amber saw one village after another destroyed by the Fog Ninja, the cruel Fog Ninja ignored the ninja's precepts, ruthlessly raised the butcher's knife at the defenseless civilians, pieces of corpses were piled up in the village, the survivors wailed and abandoned their hometowns and displaced, the helpless orphans and the elderly were tragically hiding in the wilderness to survive, and they would die of hunger and war at any time, morality and ethics became less and less valuable in the war, many people lost their land of survival, and became thieves who burned and looted and spread to the interior of the Fire Country, creating one tragedy after another, and hatred and pain began to spread wildly, like a spider's web, is chilling, and seeing the tragic situation here, Amber can think of the situation in the northern region, where it must be even more chaotic.

Unconsciously, Amber also began to hate the war, began to desperately hope for the end of the war, and began to miss the orderly life of the previous life, without worrying that life would be threatened at any time, without worrying about food, clothing, shelter and transportation, and maintaining peace and trust between people. And in this chaotic world, everything is not guaranteed, the power of the ninja destroys the balance, strong means doing whatever you want, and weak strength deserves to be bullied, so the dark side of the human heart is infinitely expanded, and in the cruel reality, almost everyone chooses to compromise and becomes insensitive, selfish, maybe only there are a few people in Konoha Village who are born for peace, and they are working hard to fight for peace.

Just when Amber was melancholy, a steel wire beside her suddenly shook, driving the bell above it and making a crisp sound.

"Hmm, this is?!" Amber looked moved, a bad premonition came to her heart, this wire connected to the warning trap set up halfway up the mountainside, once someone touched the trap, the alarm bell here would sound, although it was not ruled out that it was a trap triggered by an animal, but Amber always felt that something was wrong.

After preparing for a minute, Amber turned on the immortal mode, and the super perception suddenly covered the entire mountain, and one chakra reaction after another suddenly appeared in the perception, and there were twenty-seven ninjas surrounding the entire mountain, rushing towards the top of the mountain.

"Oh no!!" Amber is taken aback, quickly gets up and runs back to the tent, waking up Teita and Sissi.

"Hmm, what's wrong with Amber?" asked Teita confusedly.

"We're surrounded, there's twenty-seven people on the other side, and we're here in five minutes at most. Amber said with an ugly face.

"What?!" Teita suddenly came to his senses and let out a cry of disbelief.

"Shut up, do you want to alarm the other person?!" Amber scolded.

"That'...... So what should we do?" asked Sissi, who was pale and a little trembling. "Luckily, I found out early, and we still have time to figure out how to break through. Amber said in a deep voice.

In the dark forest, several fog ninjas quietly advanced to the top of the mountain without making a sound.

Soon, more than twenty ninja approached the top of the mountain, surrounding the camp of the three Amber men, and then two kunai with detonation charms tied to them shot into the tent.

"Boom!" an explosion sounded, and the canvas tent was instantly torn to shreds.

However, the tent was empty, except for some debris that had been damaged by the bombing, scattered all over the ground.

A misty ninja stepped forward to examine it carefully, and said, "Captain, there should have been someone here just now, it seems that the other party found us in advance and escaped." โ€

"We can't let them run away! Our whereabouts must not be known to the front line of Konoha ! All the sentient ninjas activated their joint perception and immediately searched the surroundings for me, they shouldn't have gone far yet!"

The four sentient ninjas stepped out and sat cross-legged on the ground face to face, a huge scroll spread out between the four of them, densely covered with inscriptions.

The four of them quickly sealed, and then pressed their palms on the scroll, and all the seals suddenly lit up, and the invisible perception of Chakra suddenly spread out in all directions.

It didn't take long for a sentient ninja to open his eyes and report, "Captain, I have found the other party, there are three of them, and they are moving quickly in the direction of six o'clock, about three kilometers away from us!" "Very good, everyone is chasing at full speed!

"Yes!"

In the forest below the mountain, the three Amber were moving as fast as they could......

"Amber, this time thanks to you for discovering each other in advance, otherwise we would have died. Teita said with palpitations.

"Don't get too excited. Amber said with a disturbed face: "Although we used the gap between them to escape before they closed up, the other party is not a fool, and he will react quickly, whether we can escape or not is still a matter of opinion." โ€

"No...... We've all run so far, how could they possibly find us?" asked Tevita with a tight expression.

"That's not good. โ€

Suddenly, Sissi staggered to a halt and looked behind her with a pale face.

"What's wrong?!What's going on?" asked Terita nervously.

"I ...... We...... Yes, covered by active perception!" Sissi said in horror.

"Sure enough. Amber's heart sank, the other party really had a strong perception ability, so he couldn't escape at all.

"How so?!Amber, what are we going to do?" asked Teita, a little alarmed.

After being silent for a while, Amber said with a heavy face: "We don't have the ability to shield our perceptions, so we can't get rid of each other at all, and once we are caught up by the other party's ninja who is good at speed, as long as we delay us a little, then we will only have the result of total annihilation, so ...... We have only one way. โ€

"What's the solution?"

"Leave one man behind and hold them back. โ€

Amber's words fell, and the three fell silent, the heavy atmosphere overwhelming. There are twenty-seven people on the other side, and all of them are elites, so no matter who stays behind, it is almost impossible to survive, die, live, abandon, or guard, survive cowardlyly, or die like a hero, is it worth paying the price of their lives, who is to be abandoned? Things that have never been thought about are pouring out.
