Chapter 501: True Snake Pill
"Hanyu-sama, for security reasons, and your current status, I don't think it's appropriate to act alone...... Bringing a shadow guard is the right and responsible thing to do. β
After leaving Konoha, Hanyu and Sarutobi continued to travel west along the deserted path.
Because the surrounding environment is becoming more and more quiet, Sarufei Xinghei can't help but become nervous, and in the end, he can't help but remind him like this.
"Who am I? I'm not the Hokage, so where do I need any high-strength protection? Hanyu retorted without thinking.
"But ......"
Hanyu wasn't the Hokage, and that's fine, but the problem was that he should be treated like the Hokage by now.
"It's just a habit, I'm a person who has always acted alone, and I'm not used to taking so many people with me...... What's more, I still bring the dark part of the style of the gloomy, easy not to speak, always like a ghost.
I definitely didn't feel comfortable with them, and I was even scared.
And I don't feel like I need any protection, if I bring too many people...... I don't know who protects whom.
Taking a step back, I'm not acting alone now, isn't there still you, so the responsibility of guarding me will be handed over to you, Kohei. β
Hanyu made a gesture of trusting Sarutobi's abilities, and turned around and patted the other party on the shoulder.
The poor ape Fei Yuhei was a little nervous himself, and he felt that someone was ambushing him, but Hanyu was still putting pressure on him.
It's really good, bad and bad.
"Don't worry, you don't have to be nervous, the probability of the enemy invading the hinterland of the Fire Nation is not very high, and the chance of us encountering the invaders is even lower, besides...... It's not me boasting, in the entire Fire Nation, no one knows how to deal with a sneak attack better than I do. β
That's really the case, Hanyu has a lot of experience in countering sneak attacks.
ββ¦β¦β
Well, Sarutobi seems to have been "convinced" by it...... In fact, now, it doesn't make any sense for him to say these things again, and it is impossible for the dark guards to come out of thin air.
"Hanyu-sama, what is the purpose of our trip to the Western Front this time?"
Visiting Tsunade? That's impossible, Hanyu has always been a person who has always had a clear distinction between public and private, and is selfless.
"To put it mildly, a ninja like me has nothing to do and come out for a walk, it's called 'strategic deterrence'......;
The situation on the northern front is a bit embarrassing now, but the more times like this, the more we have to prioritize ensuring that there will be no problems on the battlefield on the western front, otherwise if something unexpected happens, then the burden on Konoha will immediately double.
Therefore, although the war situation on the northern front was more severe, the strategic priority was raised on the western front...... Anyway, the northern front has already been eroded, how much can it continue to rot no matter how rotten it is? β
Hanyu went to the Western Front first, indeed to scare people, but I don't know if his appearance can bluff the Sand Hide...... He doesn't seem to be as well-known as Wuyin on the Sand Hidden side, and because of his previous actions, maybe his appearance will also stimulate the Sand Hidden in the opposite direction, making the other party's actions more radical.
But no matter what, deterrence will still be conducted, either "deterrence" will occur when Hanyu arrives at the front line, or "deterrence" will occur after he arrives at the front line and does something.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Hanyu and Sarutobi didn't use that speed when they went to the Western Front, but they were still very efficient, so by the time it was getting closer to the border of the Fire Nation.
And sometimes some things have to be admitted, such as some people have always been doomed...... He doesn't have to be an old unlucky guy, but everyone who is related to him will become an old bad guy, so in the end he is still a plague god.
"Stop, can you hear anything?"
Hanyu, who was moving forward, stopped abruptly and asked Sarutobi at the same time.
Sarutobi immediately stopped and leaned forward, but he didn't seem to hear anything except the sound of the winter wind.
"Hanyu-sama, has something happened?"
Hanyu just shook his head and didn't continue to explain, he just ordered, "Be vigilant, we're going to speed up next." β
The speed of the march increased suddenly, and as the two men got closer to the Western Front, the sound in the night changed from faintly audible to unusually clearβit was the sound of a massive battle.
Judging from the location and distance, it is obvious that this is most likely the western front camp of Konoha that Sand Hide is actively attacking.
Because of the conservative austerity strategy decided earlier, although Konoha's western camp is still in the territory of Kawanokuni, it is actually close to the fire country in the east, so if Konoha is taking the initiative to attack, then the battle will never happen in such a place.
Besides, it is impossible for Konoha to take the initiative to attack at this time.
Hanyu stood at the top of a large tree, overlooking the battle ahead. The battlefield under the bleak night moon was extremely scorching, and the open flames lit on the ground from time to time were extinguished from time to time. But in the end, there were more and more dancing flames on the battlefield.
"Hanyu-sama, it seems that the number of enemies is more numerous, and the momentum is unusually high, what should we do next?" Sarutobi Yukihei, who was standing behind Hanyu, saw that Hanyu had been silently observing the battlefield but had no intention of taking action, so he couldn't help but ask.
He was a little out of breath, anxious about the Konoha side that was suffering from the attack and battle damage.
"Look, every time I come to the battlefield, the timing is so perfect, this unlucky rush, it has a bit of a targeted treatment...... Don't worry, I'm not identifying valuable targets among the enemy, such a large group of Sand Hidden Ninjas are involved in the attack, I wonder if the commander will be Kazekage himself. β
However, before Hanyu could find out the most valuable target, something unexpected happened on the battlefield.
An indescribably large chakra swept across the area, and then a pale golden light erupted from the battle line of Konoha, and then, a huge object suddenly appeared on the battlefield.
To be honest, this kind of outbreak is rare, but experienced ninjas should understand that it is highly likely that Konoha has dropped a tailed beast on the battlefield, however...... When the posture of this tailed beast was really revealed, the sand ninja in front of him was still stunned in an instant.
Rising high in the air were the bodies of eight large white serpents, which were then covered in golden chakra cloaks, and each of them had sharp beast ears on their heads.
Shrinking down the body of the big snake, it was actually four claws that supported this huge monster, and from behind, in addition to a thick snake tail, there were actually nine fox tails that were wantonly breeding there...... Quantitatively, this really has to be regarded as a "ten-tailed".
In this situation, not to mention the enemy, even Hanyu was stunned.
Baqi Snake + Nine Lamas?
Has Cthulhu culture really become popular in the ninja world lately?
The eight serpent heads then began to hiss, and a piercing screech filled every corner of the battlefield, and just as most of the enemy was in a daze, the serpent's head rose and fell, left and right, and then opened together.
The black balls gathered in front of the slender and dangerous snake pupils, judging by Hanyu's rich experience, each ball was smaller than normal, but there were plenty of them!
In the next moment, huge clusters of light erupted one after another in the array of sand shadows.
The enemy's fierce offensive seems to have been destroyed like this......
On this battlefield, it seems that Hanyu doesn't need to swallow his hand slowly.
Still standing on the top of a tree and drinking cold wind? There is a fart.
Hanyu obediently climbed down from the tree.
Orochimaru is so furious, it doesn't seem to fit his character, however...... Even with a name like "Orochimaru", his personality has become more and more indifferent, but Orochimaru is still a human after all.
No matter how cool he is, he also has his own feelings.
A sand ninja who had been swept to the edge of the battlefield by the blast but was lucky enough to survive was crawling on the ground with a long trail of blood.
But crawling, he saw a pair of feet appear in front of him.
Barely raising his head, this enemy saw Hanyu's face, and the next moment, he seemed to recognize Hanyu, so ...... Then he began to turn around and crawl back.
I don't know why, Hanyu felt that the other party's behavior was rude, and he seemed to be offended.
Hanyu pulled out the long knife at his waist and walked slowly forward.
"I'm sorry, my kid actually feels uncomfortable in his heart, but he probably can't say that character.
Who can tell anyone about the hardships of life? β
