Chapter 52: Konoha vs Rain Ninja Village (1)

Konoha invaded the Land of Rain on a large scale, setting up temporary strongholds everywhere he went. At first, most Konoha ninjas had not quickly changed their minds, believing that this war would not endanger civilians as a mission in peacetime.

Most of these people are young people who have never participated in World War I, and they still deliberately avoid harming the people of other countries.

Within a few days of the war, these ninjas were wounded everywhere, and many of them closed their eyes forever. They didn't expect that the counterattack of the Rain Ninja Village would be so fierce, and coupled with the other party's familiarity with the terrain, the powerful Konoha was even pressed and beaten for a time.

What's even more hateful is that the ninjas of Rain Ninja Village like to disguise themselves as merchants or ordinary people, which greatly hinders Konoha's advancement. After all, they are ninjas who have grown up under the influence of three generations of Hokage, and they don't want to be executioners themselves, which causes Konoha to advance to avoid many cities or villages, making the logistics a bit onerous.

Ape Fei's four apprentices were fighting bloodily on the front line at this time, and with their joining, the Rain Ninja Village suffered heavy losses.

Today was the second large-scale battle between the two sides, and both sides were restrained in the first battle and feared that the losses would be too great, so it was over after a few long-range battles. After all, neither side has yet to adapt to the war, so this second battle will be very tragic.

Konoha slowly approached, and a team of 1,000 people composed of Shinobi was now at the front, and they had two tasks: to throw all the explosive charms in their hands at the beginning of the battle, to step forward to mend the sword at the end, and to carry down the dead and wounded companions.

In the early stage of the war, there was still some protection for the lower ninja, but in the middle and late stages, with the lack of backbone, every country will no longer take the life of the ninja seriously, and can abandon everything in order to win. So these shinobi can only pray that the war will end soon, or that they will grow as quickly as possible.

Orochimaru and Jiraiya each lead 10 ninja squads, and their mission is to storm the opposing formation after the long-range attrition is over, creating favorable conditions for the large army.

Tsunade is in charge of the treatment of the wounded, and all the medical ninjas are under her command, although they don't have to fight the enemy, but who can guarantee that the other party won't sneak up here?

With the signal flare exploding in the air, the Konoha troops stopped advancing, and not far from the opposite side were the ninjas of the Rain Ninja Village, who also planned to let the lower ninja troops carry out long-range attrition.

The two sides just looked at each other like this, and only a few days after the war began, many ninjas began to show expressions of hatred.

As soon as the signal of the attack was played, the ninjas on both sides desperately threw the explosive charm hanging from the kunai to the opposite side. The already gloomy sky suddenly roared, and many explosive charms collided and detonated in the air.

Ninjutsu troops run around, using a variety of retreats to intercept enemy attacks. After a few minutes of lasting, the offensive of the Rain Ninja Village began to weaken, and the explosion charms and kunai were scattered, as if they would be interrupted at any moment.

On the other hand, Konoha is still very rich in supplies, which makes the ninjutsu troops of Rain Ninja Village exhausted and consumes a large amount of chakra.

Seeing that the advantage appeared, the commander of the Konoha side ordered to stop the long-range attack after 3 minutes, and all the troops broke down the enemy's defenses.

When the time came, Konoha's shinobi gave up their positions, and the vanguard led by Orochimaru and Jiraiya quickly rushed out.

Because of the arduous task, these squads are composed of 1 upper ninja and at least 2 elite middle ninjas, many of whom have also participated in World War I, although they served in the lower ninja army at that time, but after all, they survived, and there is still experience.

The distance of a few hundred meters was shortened in an instant, and the two sides could even see a few hairs on the opposite side.

"Get out of here! The middle ninja troops are on top! A ninja who seemed to be the leader was a little anxious and ordered his subordinates to move quickly, but fortunately, his own mid-ninja troops reacted quickly, and they came to the position in advance and were ready to fight at any time.

"Get the konoha crumbs out!"

With a howl, the ninjas of the Rain Ninja Village greeted them with a howl.

There is no nonsense, and Jiraiya directly launched his own earth escape to limit the enemy's formation.

"Tu Dun - Yellow Spring Swamp"

A huge swamp with a radius of tens of meters appeared in the enemy position, and many ninjas accidentally fell into it.

This move is basically non-lethal, anyway, their task is to disrupt the local formation, and this move is just right.

"Water Escape-Waterfall Technique!"

The enemy's leading ninja immediately unleashed a powerful water escape ninjutsu, and he minimized the extraction of chakra, so that the amount of water in this ninjutsu was just enough to wash away the opponent's ninjutsu without hurting his own people.

Seeing that the local formation was a little chaotic, Orochimaru channeled several huge pythons to rampage everywhere, and Konoha's 20 squads saw that the two captains were so powerful, and tore apart the encirclement of the place from everywhere in a group of two squads.

"Oops!" Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more dangerous, the ninja leader immediately sent the upper ninja force to intercept it. As a small country, they can't arrange Shangnin in the squad like a big country, after all, Shangnin is already very powerful in their eyes, and most of them are high-level troops, so they are not sent out alone.
