Chapter 69: Scouting

As Akido Ding Za said, the next day, three thousand ninjas entered the Land of Rain for only more than forty miles, and Konoha broke out a major battle with the nearly 1,000 allied forces of Rain and Sand Hide.

In the first battle, with the strength of the three strong men and the advantage of numbers, Konoha defeated the enemy fiercely, killing more than 300 ninjas in one go.

After this battle, the enemy was obviously greatly distressed, and immediately retreated, ready to defend it to the death.

As a result, in the next few days, the Konoha ninja army did not make great progress in several attacks, which was quite a stalemate.

While the two sides confronted each other, Mimura Hamaki, the deputy commander of Konoha's side, divided his troops into a thousand troops, bypassed here, and went straight to another nearby rain ninja station.

The Rain Country battlefield spreads out quickly.

On the morning of April 27, deep in the dense forest.

I don't know that Huo Xuanma's figure flashed, and when the knife fell in his hand, a wild boar fell to the ground with a bang.

Blood gushed from its neck, and the boar twitched only a few times before it was silent.

Dragging the boar carcass, I don't know that the fire genma soon joined up with the three of Kime Nagaye, and similar to him, the three of them also dragged a huge beast each.

"It's definitely enough for a thousand kilograms, let's go back." Kime Nagaye looked at a few beasts, nodded and said.

The four of them were just carrying out a C-class mission, that is, hunting beasts with a cumulative weight of more than 1,000 kilograms to replenish military rations.

After all, the land of rain has a humid climate, many mountains and forests, and many wild beasts, so there is no need to use this resource in vain.

"Uncle Xu, this is the beast we caught, take a look." When he came to the place where he was in charge of the food in the camp, Kime Nagaye first dragged the bison carcass in his hand to a Nakashinobi uncle.

Uncle Zhongnin checked it a little, then nodded, and handed over a certificate of completion of the task: "It's okay." ”

With the certificate in hand, the four of them quickly completed the formalities, and their respective C-level mission experience was increased twice.

"Changye, there's a B-class mission to be assigned to you here." Akido Dingza said.

"Scouting?" Kime Nagaye seems to have expected it.

"That's right." Akido Dingza nodded, "Tonight, you need to go to the outskirts of the enemy garrison to reconnoitre...... The main purpose of reconnaissance is to determine if there has been a change in the number of enemies. ”

"If there is a significant increase or decrease, it must be reported to me in as much detail as possible."

……

It was more than two o'clock in the second half of the night.

The four of them left the camp and headed straight for the enemy's station.

"Teacher Changye, how are we going to scout the number of enemies?"

While hurrying away, Kime Nagaye said, "I'm an earth ninja, and the task of reconnaissance will be left to me." I will explain the specific arrangements to you in detail after getting close to the enemy's position. ”

The two sides were not far apart, and in a few moments they approached the enemy's camp.

Mumu Changye raised his hand to signal, and the four of them stopped immediately, and then he leaned over and patted it, closing his eyes and perceiving it.

A moment later.

Kime Nagaye frowned slightly: "I can't sense the number of enemy troops here, the enemy's patrol is five hundred meters away, I must lurk behind the patrol before I can start reconnaissance." ”

Ebisu was nervous for a while, and couldn't help but say, "Isn't that dangerous?" ”

"I'll try it with the Pseudo-Walker to see if there are any sentient ninjas in the patrol ahead." Kime Nagaye pondered for a moment, then made sword fingers with both hands, one hand in front of him, and the other lightly touched the ground.

Suddenly, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, they didn't find out about my 'pseudo-walking technique', and there should be no sentient ninjas in this patrol." ”

"Go four hundred meters."

The four of them advanced for a distance, hiding in a forest not far away, and in the night, the four-person team patrolling ahead could be faintly seen.

Kime Nagaye said: "In a while, I will use the 'Earth Technique' to cross the patrol from the ground to conduct reconnaissance, and you will stay around here and prepare to respond. ”

He looked at Shiranui Genma again: "If I don't come back after an hour, Genma, you immediately lead the team to retreat, understand?" ”

"Yes." I don't know Huo Xuanjian responded, and his expression couldn't help but become more serious.

Mumu Changye nodded, and immediately launched the "Earth Escape and Earth Movement Technique", and then saw the earth squirm, and he disappeared into the ground in an instant......

The three of them lurked among the trees, staring at the enemy patrol a hundred meters ahead, not daring to move.

The night was dark, and the patrol was repeatedly haunted by their sight, following a fixed route from near and far.

Thirty minutes passed in a flash, and Mumu Changye had not yet returned, and the three of them were faintly anxious.

At this moment, in the night, there were four more figures in front of them, walking to the opposite side of the patrol, as if saying something.

I don't know that Huo Genma looked down at his watch, it happened to be three o'clock in the second half of the night, and it seemed that it should be the time for the patrol team to change shifts.

The patrol team has changed shifts, why hasn't Teacher Changye come back?

Just as he was thinking this, the newly replaced patrol team didn't take a few steps but suddenly stopped, and stopped for nearly half a minute.

Seeing this, I don't know that Huo Xuanma's heart suddenly sank, and he thought for a while and whispered: "Akai, Xiaoshou, get ready for battle." ”

"Yes." Akai's voices were vaguely nervous.

Maybe I didn't know that Huo Genma thought about it too much, and after the patrol stopped for half a minute, for a full twenty minutes, nothing abnormal happened, and they still patrolled back and forth according to the original route.

In contrast, Mumu Changye, who had not returned for a long time, made the three of them feel more and more anxious.

"Xuanjian, why hasn't Teacher Changye come back, and how long will it take?" Ebisu asked.

"About ten minutes." I didn't know that Huo Genma was about to look at his watch again, but the slightest trace of fire attribute chakra fluctuations made his pupils shrink suddenly, and his expression changed greatly.

"Be careful!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a heat wave struck, and the fierce flames rushed behind themselves like angry waves, burning a large number of trees almost instantly.

The three people who will avoid this blow are all extremely ugly.

B-rank ninjutsu!

Not surprisingly, the person who attacked them was the patrol team just now, a team of four, and it is estimated that it should also be one upper ninja and three lower ninjas.

If they only play against one upper ninja and three lower ninjas, with the talisman reserves of ignorant fire genma, the three of them are not without a chance to win.

But now close to the enemy's base camp, a group of enemies will attack in a few minutes at most.

I don't know that no matter how many spells there are, it is not the kind of Xiaonan that is 600 billion, only a few hundred, facing hundreds of ninjas, it is definitely a drop in the bucket.

After only a third of a second of hesitation in his mind, he didn't know that Huo Xuanjian immediately made a decision and shouted, "Run!" ”

A mocking voice came from the forest: "Still want to run?" Leave your life behind! ”
