Chapter Ninety-Seven: Lightning Raid
The person who spoke out just now was Orochimaru, and according to the plan, he had to make a very high-profile appearance, giving the enemy the illusion that Konoha would be involved in the battle.
"Orochimaru, last time I kindly let you live, why, so soon to come over and die?"
Sanshoyu Hanzo also couldn't figure out the other party's plans, so he made sarcastic remarks, hoping to find out something.
"Huh."
However, how could Orochimaru eat this set, and he didn't reply, with a sneer on his face, he just stood aside and looked at the two sides, not taking half a step forward.
Konoha's sudden move also made it impossible for the two sides to fight any longer, and the commanders of the two sides couldn't help but order a retreat, and began to secretly send people to investigate Konoha's intelligence.
As a result, the three forces were very strangely stalemate on this battlefield.
……
It is located in several towns along the supply line of Iwa Shinobi.
There are still a lot of ordinary people on the streets, but the entire outskirts of the town are guarded by Iwa Shinobi to prevent other ninjas from entering the town.
"Alas, I don't know what happened to the frontline battlefield now, how long has this been fighting, and it's not over yet."
One of the Iwa ninjas had nothing to do, and he also pulled another ninja to the side to chat, his face full of sadness.
"What is there to worry about, you must know that this time the village has sent more than 3,000 ninjas to participate in the battle, more than half of them are on the front line, and it will not be able to defeat the rain ninja of less than a thousand?"
Seeing that his companion was worried, this Iwa Shinobi couldn't help but speak comfortingly, and his face showed even more pride as he spoke.
Normally, Iwa Shinobi's numerical advantage is indeed very large, but unfortunately Yu Shinobi still has Sanshoyu Hanzo in the town, and it is impossible for Iwa Shinobi to defeat Yu Shinobi for the time being.
At this time, these rock ninjas did not know that Konoha's people had entered the war zone.
Whoosh!
Just as the two were communicating, the bushes not far away on the side suddenly moved, causing the two to look at each other at the same time.
Brush!
In an instant, a cold light flashed, and Qimu Shuomao was already standing behind the two Iwa ninjas, his eyes were as cold as snow, with terrifying killing intent, and he was slowly returning to the sheath with the blade of white fangs in his right hand.
Poof!!
The heads of the two Iwa Shinobi behind him, accompanied by the sound of two streams of water, shot directly into the sky like cannonballs, and blood splashed along with the rain.
The skull was like a signal to attack, and countless black shadows flashed from behind the trees, rushing towards the other Iwa Shinobi guarding the town like a violent wind and waves.
Thorn!! Thorn!!
The splattering of blood and the screams of the enemy caused the town, which had temporarily returned to calm, to once again set off a bloody storm.
The residents of the town also quickly hid, all the shop doors were closed, and the whole town suddenly seemed like a dead city.
Whoosh!
"Commander-in-chief! All Iwa Shinobi have been cleaned up! ”
Two Konoha ninjas dodged in front of Hachiki Shuo Shigeru and reported on the battle situation at the moment.
"Well, search carefully again to see if there is anything missing, and in half an hour assemble at the north exit and head to the next town!"
Qimu Shuomao's momentum at this moment was completely different from usual, and there was murderous intent in his eyes, and he said coldly when he heard the words.
"Yes!"
The two Konoha ninjas were able to receive the order, and then dodged away to quickly pass on the order.
"Orochimaru has successfully completed the first plan, and my side is also fast."
Hachiki Sakumo thought to himself that the second team he had led had killed several intelligence ninjas who had arrived from the war zone.
I think it was sent by the Iwa ninja commanders in the war zone to investigate Konoha intelligence, but unfortunately this was already in their plan.
Under their lightning raid, this is already the fourth town they have taken.
Cleaning up the remaining towns and clearing the Iwa Shinobi would be half done.
In the end, they only needed to leave a few Iwa Shinobi and let them report back to their headquarters, and then their second team dragged the Iwa Shinobi who came to support, and the second plan was considered a success.
The more Iwa Shinobi they can draw out, and the more people they can drag, the more help they will be to the last plan.
"The last step is up to you, Xuanyu."
Qimu Shuomao looked up at the raindrops falling in the sky, his eyes flickering and disappearing.
……
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
The rain poured down, converging into one slap after another, slapping the ground.
The rain constantly pounded on the leaves of the trees in the forest, adding a sense of desolation to this green shade.
On one side of the woods is a very large camp, and although it is raining, there is still a faint fire in the camp, illuminating it.
At this moment, on top of a hidden tree trunk in the woods, a figure was half-crouching, and the pitch-black cloak covered his whole body and blocked the rain.
Beneath the cloak was a mask with white and red stripes, and the eyes under the mask were intently watching the camp.
This person is none other than Hyun Woo.
He had been observing the camp for a whole day, but still found no sign of personnel in the camp.
However, he was not in a hurry, and still quietly waited for the time to come.
In the original plan, there was a great margin for error in terms of time, because the battlefield was changing rapidly, and it was impossible to determine how long it would take to draw out the enemy in the headquarters.
During the time that Xuan Yu was waiting and observing, he was also repeatedly recalling the internal information of the Iwa Ninja Command that Hachiki Shuomao gave him.
Including the general terrain environment, the structure of the headquarters, the number of people, the ninjas guarding and the entrances and exits of the headquarters, these are all desperately explored by the intelligence ninjas.
This is also the key to making him less prone to mistakes in executing his plans, so he must keep this information in mind and use it to have a greater chance of success.
Whoosh!
Just as he was thinking, suddenly, several figures quickly approached the Iwa Shinobi Headquarters, and directly passed through several trap areas in front of an entrance.
Xuan Yu's eyes lit up, and he looked carefully at the location of the gate.
I saw that those people were wearing cloaks, and after talking to the ninja guarding the door, they quickly entered the headquarters.
"It's finally here!"
Seeing this, Xuanyu was immediately overjoyed in his heart, worthy of being led by Orochimaru and Qimu Shuomao, and the efficiency was really high, and it even exceeded the time expected in the previous plan.
These people walked in a hurry, and even went straight to the house where the Iwa Shinobi headquarters held a meeting as pointed out in the intelligence, and it was obvious that they were the people who they had sent back to report the news.
At this moment, Xuanyu was still motionless, as if he had merged with the trees, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the situation in the Iwa Shinobi Headquarters.
As the night approached, the sky darkened, as if to foreshadow the killing that was about to descend on the Iwa Shinobi headquarters.
