Chapter 188 Character Determines Destiny
Seeing that the sea outside the dock completely turned into a sea of fire, the surviving Mist Shinobi drove the remaining ships away and drifted away, and Jilai also canceled the psychic ninjutsu, and Wentai's huge figure turned into a puff of white smoke and disappeared in place.
After losing Bunta's block, Yakura saw the scene outside the dock clearly, his expression was complicated, and he finally gave the order to retreat under the pressure of the rope tree. This feeling of being coerced and involuntary burned in his heart like a flame.
"It seems that Your Excellency Yakura has made a choice. However, for the sake of your life, please continue to stay calm. If Your Excellency and you die here in battle, it will be a heavy blow to the Fog Hidden Village! Rope reminded as he looked at Yakura's angry eyes burning like flames.
Yakura looked at the Konoha ninja in front of him, who was younger than himself, and raised the coral stick in his hand unconvincedly, so he couldn't tear the other party to pieces.
But when he saw the dozens of subordinates following behind him, he couldn't help but think of the dozen or so guards who died tragically because of his impulsiveness three days ago.
The political environment of Fog Hidden Village is as complex as that of Konoha, with large clans such as Mizuki Moonless, Kaguya, and Lamp Ghosts, as well as self-contained forces such as the Ninja Seven, and the upper ninja who are now following Yakura are all elites of the Mizukage line.
The three generations of Mizukage can arrange Yakura and these people to the battlefield of the Vortex Country in order to strengthen the prestige and status of the Mizukage lineage.
If all of them die here, then the power of the Mizukage clan will be greatly weakened, and the power will be seized by other forces.
Thinking of this, in order to suppress the killing intent in his heart, Yakura had to close his eyes and not look at the face in front of him that made him hate to the bone.
"We ...... Surrender! Yakura closed his eyes and struggled to utter the command, which made him feel humiliated.
This surprised the group of shinobi who knew Yakura's character and were ready to fight to the death.
"Yakura-sama...... You don't have to worry about us! I felt that the young commander was probably because of himself and others who would give up the proud group of mist ninja in his heart, and he was both moved and blamed himself.
"I've made up my mind, I don't need to persuade again!" The loyalty of his subordinates made Yakura feel relieved and strengthened his determination to surrender.
There was a crunch, and Yakura let go of the coral stick in his hand, allowing it to fall to the ground of the dock.
With a crisp "clanging sound", the rest of the fog ninja also threw their weapons on the ground.
At the wave of the rope tree, a team of ninjas from the Uzumaki clan quickly skillfully set up two sets of insurance on the bodies of the misty ninjas.
After everything settled, Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief: "I didn't expect it to go so well, and I don't know what happened to Orochimaru's side?"
Rope Tree shared information with another clone, and naturally knew the situation over there, "That cloud-hidden Drubi is a steady conductor, and he hasn't reacted at all until now!" ”
In fact, Rope didn't expect to leave Drubby behind like Yakura, and he ambushed at the north pier with Hagi Sakushige, just with the idea of giving it a try. Anyway, with the speed and defense of the two of them, it is not a problem at all to retreat with all their might.
Because the country of vortex is relatively close to the country of soup and the country of iron in the north, and there is only one strait in the period, if Yun Shinobi is willing to abandon all the small country alliances, he does not need to take a boat at all, he only needs to use the chakra treading technique to cross this strait in a few hours to reach the other side, and then cross the small country such as the country of Yu from the land, and then easily return to the country of thunder.
However, Rope Tree didn't expect that Drubi was actually a little too "steady", and he didn't react until now, which gave him a chance to leave all the cloud ninja in the country of the vortex.
After expelling the Fog Shinobi, now that the balance of strength between the two sides has been completely reversed, coupled with the feud between Yun Yin and Konoha, Rope Tree has no worries: "Leave a hundred people to escort the prisoners of Wu Yin back to the base to take care of them, and the others will immediately rush to the north dock with me to intercept them, maybe it's still too late!" ”
After giving the order, Rope Tree immediately led more than 1,000 ninja troops straight to the northern dock.
……
Meanwhile, Druby, who had put the theft of the warehouse on hold for the time being, was anxiously awaiting a reply from above.
Ever since the three generations of Thunder Shadow quelled the rebellion of the Golden Horn and Silver Horn, Yunyin Village has been adopting a high-pressure policy to prevent the rebellion from happening again due to the martial arts faction coming to power again.
Although the third generation of Lei Ying himself is also a martial arts faction, in order to prevent the tragedy of the second generation from repeating again, he only believes in his cronies, so he is nepotistic. As a result, most of the high-level leaders of Yunyin Village are relatives of the three generations of Lei Ying or people who have a master-apprentice relationship, which of course caused many people to be dissatisfied.
The reason why Drubi is in charge of leading the army this time is also the result of the three generations of Thunder Shadows leading the way, if Drubi is defeated, someone will definitely make a fuss about this matter, and even implicate the policy problems that the three generations of Thunder Shadow have been doing.
And Drubi also knows how important sealing ninjutsu is to Yun Yin. For Yun Ninja, who is good at swordsmanship and destructive ninjutsu such as Thunder Escape, it is very difficult to control the tailed beast, if it weren't for his brother the third generation of Thunder Shadow who suppressed the rampaging Eight-Tails many times, Yunyin Village would have been in chaos long ago. If this continues, not only will they not be able to use the power of the Tailed Beast, but the three generations of Thunder Shadow, who are the highest combat power in the village, will also be confined to the village. This is too much for a martial arts ninja village like Yunyin Village, it is simply an iron chain that binds their hands and feet.
Therefore, Drubi knew that in order to get the sealing ninjutsu to break this bondage, the high-level of Yunyin would not hesitate to bow his head to the old enemy Konoha and make concessions.
But this concession will definitely cause discontent among most of the people in the village, and if the ninja army under Drubi's command is defeated at this time, then he will become the best target to vent, and then the people who have a heart only need to provoke a little, and under the anger of the crowd, I am afraid that even his brother will not be able to save himself.
Therefore, knowing that the battle situation was urgent, Drubi still did not immediately lead his ninjas to retreat directly, but chose to report the situation to the top and wait for the reply order, just to prevent being caught.
It's a pity that Drubi didn't expect that his only ally was now completely defeated, and the survival path of him and his subordinate Yun Ren was slowly blocked. Far from retaining his position of power, his caution will push him into the abyss of defeat.
If the situations of Yakura and Drubi were reversed, maybe their endings would be completely different, but unfortunately the world is impermanent, and they both made wrong decisions due to their personalities, which is the so-called character determines fate.
