Chapter Twenty-Four: Rainy Night, Trap
Pap, pop, what does it feel like to have a soybean-sized raindrop on your body? Cold, painful. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
What's it like to fight for a day in the pouring rain? Cold, desperate.
"Ahem! Ahem! ”
Yiyu couldn't help coughing, he licked his chapped lips, his belly was full of hunger, and his lips and tongue were thirsty.
I really want to eat something, I really want to drink some hot water, I really want to rest for a while......
However, the Konoha ninja on the opposite side sneered, and the attacks did not stop in the slightest, and they did not really fight with the rain ninja, but only made their spirits gradually become a state of numb tension.
How long can this last? Yushinobu himself didn't know.
Finally, it's finally time to change the guard.
He hurriedly handed over his post to his companion, and then staggered to a slightly sheltered place to rest. There, many rain ninjas who had changed their guards gathered.
The salted fish and pickles soaked by the rain are cold mixed with the clear water of the rain, which is their food and water.
Look at the Konoha ninja on the other side, there are plenty of resources for them to set up a tent to shelter from the rain. The smell of ginger soup wafted from the tent, and you could smell the luxurious spices even from the rain ninja's position. The broth is boiling in a large pot, and the oil flowers and fatty meat are mixed together and there is a different aroma. Natto, curry, rice, and all kinds of foods that are considered extravagant by the rain ninja are almost infinitely supplied to the ninjas of Konoha in almost unlimited quantities.
Grunt, Yunin's throat couldn't help but roll. Struggling not to let himself think about the tempting things, Yushinobu closed his eyes and seized the short time to rest.
Their time to change guards is getting shorter and shorter. The first is that there are more and more injured people in the team, and the manpower is gradually insufficient to rotate, and the second is that everyone's mental and physical strength is extremely expensive, and the third is that in such a rainy day, the heat is lost too quickly. Because of these reasons, Yu Ren had to increase the frequency of changing guards, but what it brought was a reduction in the rest time after each change of guards, and the rain shinobi who changed guards could not get enough rest, did not have enough logistics support, and the wet and cold clothes could make them all seriously ill within a few days.
On the high ground, while confronting Hanzo, Sanshinobu is also paying attention to the battle situation.
Tsunade sneered: "Just drink to quench your thirst." “
Orochimaru and Jiraiya nodded in the same way. They never imagined that a lack of logistics and medical support would put a strong-willed team in such a predicament.
Hanzo's eyes are neither sad nor joyful, and his momentum is still there.
……
As the night wore on, the day-long rain showed no signs of abating, but grew more and more intense in the night.
Hanzo stood in the middle of the position, cold raindrops soaking into his armor, and then being evaporated by the chakra he unconsciously emitted, and the curling water vapor rose upward.
On Konoha's side, because of the coming of night, it also left some respite for Yunin.
Despite not being exhausted at all, these Konoha ninjas retreated in an orderly manner. And within an hour or two, another group of energetic Konoha ninjas would rush towards the rain ninja's position.
The three shinobi glanced at each other and nodded to each other.
……
Behind the rain ninja position, the pouring rain matched the night, and it was completely dark that could not be seen.
Bojiro walked nimbly in the darkness, and behind him, a fresh force of nearly two hundred people followed.
"There must be no mistakes, this is the task given to me by Lord Hanzo, the mission that will determine the direction of this war, and the mission that will determine the future of the Land of Rain!"
From time to time, Fang Jiro looked back to observe the situation behind him, and at this time, the footsteps he heard most familiar sounded, which was a sonorous step that could not be concealed by the pouring rain, and the footsteps that could suppress the shouts of thousands of people in the battle of thousands of people.
"Hanzo-sama!"
Hanzo held his half-moon scythe in his hand, and the icy rain trickled down from the scythe that was colder than the rain.
His gaze swept over Yushinobi's last hope, nodded heavily at them, and then said in a sonorous tone.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Hanzo."
It was as quiet as night, only the sound of the rain was heard, and everyone looked at Hanzo with fanatical eyes.
"The front line is about to be untenable." Hanzo's voice was very calm.
When he explained the situation bluntly, there was finally a commotion among the silent rain ninja troops, but everyone still looked at Hanzo with respectful and expectant eyes.
Hanzo clenched his scythe and uttered his declaration.
"The front line is almost out of reach. Then we, the last hope of the Rain Country, this front, are saved by us. ”
"You, are you willing to follow me to raid Konoha's station?!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Hundreds of kunai flashed with a cold light that could not be concealed on a rainy night, and everyone's eyes were extremely bright.
Hanzo bowed heavily to them, and then gave the order on the spot.
"Bojiro, you wear my armor, sit on the front line, and confront the other party."
"The pro-guard team comes with me, let's bypass the battle line and sneak attack Konoha's station!"
Bojiro nodded heavily, and then walked towards the front of the position without looking back.
Behind him, black shadows shuttled, bypassing the frontal battle line, and running over the mountains towards Konoha's camp.
Hanzo's eyes are deep.
"As long as we can reach the goal tonight, burn their supplies, and kill and injure their living forces on a large scale, then there is still hope!"
……
Wearing Hanzo's armor, Bojiro led the Shinobi on the battlefield to the front line.
There was hope and fanatical gaze all around, and for the first time, Bojiro felt the weight of the armor on his body deeply.
That is the weight of a nation, the weight of millions of people.
"Hanzo-sama, are you usually burdened with such a heavy weight?"
"That's all I can do. Therefore, they will not be allowed to see the flaw! ”
Bojiro stood where Hanzo had stood during the day, and the ground under his feet was deeply dented, which was the trace left by Hanzo's battle with the three shinobi.
On the opposite high ground, shadowy figures appeared.
The tide-like Konoha ninjas poured towards the rain ninja's position again.
Fangjiro's gaze was calm, trying his best to imitate Hanzo's calm bearing.
However, when he saw the face of the other leader's face clearly, a deep chill soaked his whole body, almost making his body tremble.
The leader of the other party is not one of the three quasi-shadows during the day, but an elite shinobi!
Fang Jiro's gaze fell on the Konoha camp in the distance, and in the dark night, it was like a monster, and with just one bite, it would swallow up the hope of the rain country.
"Hanzo-sama ......"
Large tears slipped from the corners of Bojiro's eyes.
……
Half-hidden, the pioneer stepped over the rugged road and climbed the slippery rocks, and Konoha's camp was not far away.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, the crackling rain can drown out all the sounds, and the dense rain curtain can directly extinguish the torches, which greatly reduces the probability of the rain ninja's actions being discovered. It was said to be a lucky thing, but the heavier rain caused a deep chill to well-rise in Hanzo's heart, as if it was the Land of Rain mourning her children.
But there is no room for delay, and with every second that passes, the likelihood of a defence collapsing is greater.
Hanzo took a deep breath, and the deep words were clear to all the rain shinobi.
"Assault, the goal is to completely burn their supplies."
Brush, the black shadows moved in unison, with the suffering of the invasion of the country, with the pain of their companions, they rushed towards Konoha's camp.
And at this moment, a crunching sound sounded.
If thousands of birds chirp in unison, hidden weapons thicker than the rain curtain will fly from all directions, completely enveloping the team of rain ninjas!
"Trap!"
