Chapter 92: The Frontline
"Click!"
The bones snapped in response, a large amount of blood sprayed out, the action of the sand ninja's resistance stopped instantly, the headless corpse fell quietly in the mud, the silent drizzle in the sky continued to fall, and soon the bright red color was washed away, and the smell of blood also disappeared in the rain.
Drying the blood on the blade of the sand shinobi's clothes, Otome withdrew the shiny little knife back into its scabbard.
"Wow, why is there a sand ninja? Isn't this the road the way to the big camp? Guanyue picked up Sand Shinobi's head, reached out and pulled the collar, and wrung out a handful of water, "Ahhhhh The clothes are soaked, and the trouble is dead······ I hate rainy days. ”
He cursed the damn weather with a gloomy face and indignation, but the small raindrops in the sky still fluttered and fell, and it didn't work.
"Isn't it because this is the only way to go, that Sand Shinobi came up!" Rope Tree walked over with two heads, "As long as we can defeat our troops transporting supplies, I think Sand Shinobi is still willing to pay some price." ”
"Unlucky!"
Guanyue sighed, threw the human head to the rope tree, and sealed it uniformly, these are all battle exploits, and they can't be wasted.
"How? Are there any other sand shinobi? Otome walked up to Kanzuki and asked softly.
"Hmm······ I'll take a look······ No, at least within a radius of five kilometers, there are only three teams. Guanyue opened her eyes and said regretfully.
"yes, that's a pity!"
Otome twisted her knotted hair, squeezing out the excess water in it, and her delicate face showed a touch of unhappiness.
This is also human nature, this kind of weatherbreaking, it is just sent out to explore the way, and the raincoat was destroyed in the battle, which is really depressing, but aside from this unpleasant weather, it is very good luck to be able to harvest nine sand ninja heads.
With the eyes of Kagura who watched the moon, they easily caught the sand ninja team lurking around, and the three of them joined forces and quickly wiped them all out after a while.
"Let's go back!"
Guanyue waved his hand, as a middle ninja, he was the leader of the team's operation, responsible for directing this pathfinding operation.
The three of them evacuated, and the headless corpses attracted a herd of hyenas with a keen sense of smell, and a large herd of hyenas were kept alive in the Land of Rain, they were scavengers on the battlefield, and they would dispose of the corpses that could not be disposed of, especially in the past few years when there were frequent battles, the number of hyenas had increased exponentially.

"Lord Shuomao, the offensive of the sand shinobi has become fierce again, and there has been a lot of manpower loss in the past few days······"
"I know that reinforcements will be coming soon······ No matter how big the loss is, we must hold on, and if we are defeated by the sand shinobi here, our trouble will be even greater. ”
In the camp, Shuo Mao put down the death list in his hand, only to feel that the corners of his forehead were jumping, no matter how many times, whenever he saw the dense death list, his mood was always so heavy, even though he had been on the battlefield for many years and had killed countless people, but he still didn't like his current job.
"Sand Ninja, these eight kings and calves, don't care about the dead at all!"
The young man with the pineapple head couldn't help but scold, after the Nara Shikahang was transferred back to the village, he sent his son over, and Lujiu began to handle all kinds of chores instead of the deer line, although he was not very old, but he was quite old, and he completely lived up to the bloodline of the Nara family.
The boy of the Nara family, who is known for his laziness and high intelligence, still can't hold back the anger in his heart when he sees the increasing number of casualties that day by day.
"Good work, Lu Jiu."
Shuo Mao patted Lu Jiu on the shoulder, thanks to the help of this little guy, he would not be entangled in messy chores, and he could still carry a knife to the battlefield when needed, instead of being trapped in the rear position to command.
"However, it's really strange, the sand ninja's offensive is too fierce, if it goes on like this, the sand ninja will be wiped out sooner or later, the movement of the sand ninja······ It's unsettling. Lu Jiu frowned tightly and pinched the statistical table in his hand.
"Are you saying that Shinobu has other plans?" Shuo Mao also frowned, he also noticed that the current offensive of the sand shinobi was very abnormal, but he couldn't say what was wrong.
"I'm afraid so, but I can't figure out what their idea is for the time being." Lu Jiu smiled bitterly.
"Let's take a look for the time being, war still depends on strength after all, and it is not so easy for Sand Shinobi to use strategies to level the gap with us." Shuo Mao rubbed his eyebrows, "Anyway, I can't think of a name for a while, Lu Jiu, the arrangement of reinforcements will trouble you, they are estimated to be almost there." ”
"yes, I see."
Lu Jiu nodded, and then began to write.
Shuo Mao opened the curtain of the door and walked out of the big tent, and what caught his eye was the thousands of tents of Konoha that were neatly distributed in front of the mountain, and a team of patrolling ninjas in the camp patrolled back and forth, crossing Konoha's camp, which was a large plain, and it was also the battlefield where Sand Ninja and Konoha fought recently.
In the last few days, the sand shinobi has been surging like a tide, and then in the defense of Konoha stubborn stones, the corpses that have been left on the ground have retreated again, and the cycle has been repeated, and they have gone crazy and attacked, not caring about the number of casualties at all.
The pressure on them has also doubled, and they have to draw more manpower to support, after all, this is the most critical place to resist the attack of the sand ninja, if the hill under their feet is captured, there will not be much favorable terrain for them to defend.
Although as long as there are enough ninjas, it is not difficult to build mountains on the ground, but the solidity of the artificially created mountains cannot be compared with the natural mountains, and it only takes a few waves of ninjutsu torrents to blow down, and the artificial earth mountains can collapse in an instant.
So, here is not to be lost.
"What the hell are these turbans up to?" Shuo Mao looked at the black plain through the drizzle, and his mood was a little heavy.
There is not a single inch of grass growing on the vast field, and Sand Shinobi and Konoha have fought back and forth on this land several times, every inch of soil is filled with blood and fireworks, and large and small craters are dense, all of which are big pits dug by ninjutsu or detonation charms.
Probably there were too many dead, the soil was blackened with blood, and the rain couldn't quickly clean the land.
"Senior Shuomao, do you have anything on your mind? Be careful of catching a cold in the rain like this. ”
Jiraiya, wearing a large hat, walked over.
"Oh······ I'm careless, I'm thinking about something. Shuo Mao wiped his face with hindsight, retreated to the door of the tent, and stood under the protruding canopy. Jiraiya, is there something you are doing here? ”
"Well, my apprentice is going to arrive today." Jiraiya laughed a little smugly.
"Arrived······ You're a ······ guy." Shuo Mao shook his head angrily, and suddenly raised his eyebrows, "No, when did you accept the apprentice?" ”
