Chapter 366: The Manipulated Retreat
After Blazing withdrew from the Sand Ninja Village with his troops, the Ninjas of Konoha Village led by Kakashi, Akai and others did not dare to stop at all, and were forced to retreat all the way in the direction of the Land Country, and the route of advance was the direction of the Bird Country that Echizen and Kazuya wanted them to take.
In fact, even if there was no persecution by the Konoha ninja intentionally or unintentionally, the flat terrain and unobstructed Bird Country would have been the best direction to retreat.
And at this time, Chiya received an order to retreat from Iwa Ninja Village, which made Chiya, who was still trembling in his heart because of the unauthorized retreat, breathe a sigh of relief.
When Blazing led the troops to retreat, there were a lot of Iwa Ninja who belonged to the reserve force that were scattered and collapsed by Iairo, and the number of ninjas in the army rose to nearly 2,000 people, which was not much better than the pursuing Kakasai, but they had just been defeated at this time, the army had no fighting spirit, and the command system was relatively chaotic, so Blaze did not have the determination to risk returning to fight Konoha Village.
The situation of the troops led by Xinyan is similar to that of Blazing, and Asma, who was ordered by Echizen Kazuya, also has no intention of forcibly intercepting Iwa Shinobi in Sand Ninja Village, but Xinyan's troops are forced to retreat in the direction of the Bear Country, and Xinyan tries to deviate from the direction and lean towards the more suitable Bird Country several times, but Asma's troops and the Root Ninja are violently repulsed back.
Xinyan was full of doubts because he knew that the terrain of the Bear Country was complex and it was very easy to be ambushed, but the chasing soldiers of Konoha Village in the front and rear would not give him a chance to choose, and Xinyan was completely involuntary at this time, even if he didn't want to go, he could only head out and head towards the Bear Country.
Unlike the two partial armies on the east and west of the Sand Ninja Village, the Chinese army led by Loess was completely blocked in the Sand Ninja Village, and after losing the supreme commander Loess, the Iwa Ninja could only resist stubbornly under the command of Loess's deputy.
However, whether it is ability or prestige, Loess's deputy is not enough to stabilize the situation in such a crisis, not to mention, Echizen Kazuya also dispatched two shadow clones to make waves in it, using the Flying Thunder God technique to continuously disintegrate and divide the tightly formed Iwa Shinobi from the inside, and the two teams led by the Konoha ninja led by Nara Shikahisa and Hinata Hinata Hinata have a total of 4,000 people, which is more than the number of Iwa Ninja.
Iwa Shinobi was almost unable to complete the team cooperation battle under the harassment of Echizen and Yakage clones, and the number of troops was also inferior, and they could only be continuously eaten and devoured by the tacit attacks of the left and right sides of Nara Shikaku and Hinata Hinata Hinata, and as the other two Iwa Shinobi withdrew from the Sand Ninja Village, more surviving Sand Ninja joined the strangulation of the middle lane Iwa Ninja, which directly accelerated the collapse of Iwa Shinobi.
The Iwa Shinobi, who suffered heavy losses and completely collapsed, could only be completely dispersed in the end, forming a team of four to escape separately, and how many people could return to the land country in the end could only depend on their own ability.
After all the main forces of Iwa Ninja Village retreated, Echizen Kazuya did not care about the pursuit for the time being, but went to meet Chiyo's mother-in-law, who was highly respected in Sand Ninja Village, under the leadership of Yura.
"Hello Granny Chiyo, I'm Kazuya Echizen from Konoha Village." Echizen Kazuya was the first to speak as soon as they met, and when he faced the old man, his face was pleasant, and his posture was very low.
"You are the fifth generation Hokage of Konoha Village, you are really young and promising, this time we are in Sand Ninja Village thanks to your Konoha Village to help, otherwise I am afraid that there will be no Sand Ninja Village at this time." Granny Chiyo looked very weak and said in a low voice.
"Mother-in-law Chiyo has an overreputation, Sand Ninja Village is our ally, and watching and helping each other with Sand Ninja Village is what we should do, but it's a pity that I came late for some objective reasons, so that the people of Sand Ninja Village suffered heavy casualties, I'm sorry for that." Echizen Kazuya said without changing his face.
"It's all the fault of the Iwa Ninja Village, it has nothing to do with Konoha Village, but I don't know how Konoha Village is going to deal with the relationship with Sand Ninja Village next?" Granny Chiyo asked quietly.
"The loss of the Sand Ninja Village this time is too huge, if you can rest assured, let us stay for the time being to help you build and restore the destroyed village, treat the wounded, and wait until the situation in the Sand Ninja Village is stable before we leave, what does Granny Chiyo think?" Kazuya Echizen asked with a smile.
"Alright then, I'll bother the Hokage and the friends of Konoha Village." It's easy to ask God and it's hard to send God, and Chiyo's mother-in-law knows that it's useless to refuse, so she didn't make any objections and agreed directly.
Mother-in-law Chiyo knows very well that it is absolutely impossible for the Sand Ninja Village to resist Konoha with the remaining two or three thousand Sand Ninja, and even if it is proposed at this time, it is completely impossible to work, and it is impossible for the Sand Ninja Village to hold the country of wind with its own strength at this time, and it can only rely on Konoha Village at this time.
"Hokage-sama, I'm really sorry, my mother-in-law hasn't rested for a long time, and now her body is extremely weak." Yasukiko Shimokawa found that Chiyo's mother-in-law suddenly closed her eyes and rested, and immediately explained to Kazuya Echizen.
"Then let Granny Chiyo have a good rest, and I'll come back to visit later." Echizen Kazuya didn't care whether Chiyo's mother-in-law was really tired or deliberately embarrassed him by such a rudeness, so he smiled without changing his face and directly offered his farewell.
"Hokage-sama, I'm really embarrassed, my mother-in-law is really too tired." Yura apologized to Echizen Kazuya again, and then said to Shimokawa Yasukiko: "Ankiko, take good care of your mother-in-law, I'll send Hokage-sama out." ”
After following Yura out of Chiyo's mother-in-law's residence, Echizen Kazuya said with a smile: "Yurajo Shinobu you go and go about your own business, I think you should be very busy now, I'll go back to the station by myself." ”
"Well, well, I'm sorry, there's so much going on in the village right now!" Yura, who knows the strength of Echizen Kazuya, has an extremely respectful attitude towards Echizen Kazuya out of respect for the strong.
"The guest is as he pleases, Yura Shangnin doesn't have to be so polite, say goodbye." After Echizen Kazuya finished speaking, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique to leave the Sand Ninja Village, and when he reappeared, he had already returned to his secret base, because of the use of the shadow clone to participate in the battle, there would be only one shadow clone here, and he was guarding the seriously injured old Zi.
"It's a problem to deal with this guy, I don't need to put another tailed beast in my body, and this guy's red hair and red beard may be related to the four tails in his body, it's too ugly not to mention, and it will also expose the identity of the human pillar force." Echizen Kazuya looked at the dying old purple and was a little worried.
Putting a tailed beast in his body is completely redundant for Echizen Kazuya, and after having the nine-tails that belong completely to him, Echizen Kazuya even wants to transfer out the five tails.
"Forget it, let's lock it up for a while." In the end, Echizen Kazuya, who didn't think of a solution, simply hid Lao Zi in the secret base like the previous five-tailed man Zhu Lihan, and Lao Zi, who was cast a fake death and prolonged life, couldn't die, and the secret base where many shadow clones were located was also extremely safe, and no one should have the ability to snatch him away under the noses of Echizen and Kazuya.
There are not too many shadow clones on the battlefield for the time being, and Echizen Kazuya has separated more than a dozen shadow clones to stay in the secret base to practice against time, and the next thing he has to do is wait, waiting for Xinyan's troops to enter the trap of the Bear Country and waiting for the blazing to enter the Bird Country.
