Chapter 60: Ambush
A tree towers to the sky, a bird cries darkly, and over this mountain, there is the territory of the Land of the Wind in front of you.
It took only two days to reach the border, which is quite efficient.
Only four hours of rest at night, and during the day, it is a test of physical strength and endurance at twice the usual speed, so in the team, the elite forbearance is the minimum bottom line.
But despite this, proper rest is also necessary, and if you want a horse to run, how can you let it not eat grass, and the same is true for people.
Lu Ming thought for a moment, made a gesture to stop, and said loudly, "All the staff stop, rest in place for ten minutes!" ”
The heavenly command sounded in everyone's ears, and all the team members stopped and began to adjust their breathing and replenish their water. Next is the territory of the Land of Winds, and it is very irrational to rush into it in a state of exhaustion.
Although it was only a small matter, the eyes they looked at the young captain became much kinder.
At this time, several Shangnin also leaned to Lu Ming's side and said respectfully, "Captain Tanaka, there is the Land of Wind in front, and we are very close to Lord White Fang!" After seeing the scene of the other party's forcible group hiding, several Shangninas can also understand why this time the team will be led by such a young teenager.
It's not because of anything else, it's just strength!
And they are also very convinced of this, and the strong should enjoy respect and leadership.
And as a team transporting supplies, they are also a supplement to the front-line firepower, and this trip is honestly crucial for everyone!
Lu Ming took out the kettle and took a sip, and nodded, "Well, if you move forward, you can slow down a bit, after all, this is not our home field, it is necessary to be careful." ”
"Yes." Several Shangninja looked different but unanimously responded and agreed. Everyone is more or less aware of something at this moment, and their hearts are worried. Last time, the team transported by Konoha was intercepted, and Lord White Fang's side was already very uncomfortable, if they couldn't break through this time, the front line was probably going to collapse, and this kind of bad news was something that everyone in Konoha didn't want to see.
In this way, their support this time is particularly important, and the result of this time may determine the direction of this victory, and the burden on everyone's shoulders suddenly becomes heavy.
Sacrifice is a long-standing awareness, but they are more eager to live and be victorious!
Looking at the resolute faces of everyone, Lu Ming couldn't help but feel in his heart, Konoha's cohesion was indeed incomparable to other ninja villages.
If he was asked to sacrifice his life for the country, to be honest, he might probably do it, but his heart must be reluctant, and he cares more about the people who live in it than Konoha symbolizes everyone's faith.
And in Lu Ming's opinion, Konoha can actually skip this battle at all. Because of the battle of the Land of Rain alone, Konoha has already won this counterattack battle, turning passive into active and firmly gaining the upper hand. It's just that as the country of fire, which is the strongest of the five powers, will it swallow its anger after being slapped by someone? It's like a gorgeously dressed child being punched by another ordinarily dressed child for no reason, do you want to fight back? The answer, of course, is to return, the dignity of Konoha cannot be trampled on!
So the attacker became the counterattack, and the counterattacker became the attacker, and this counterattack evolved to this point, and the two sides have perfectly completed the exchange of identities. Konoha needs victory in this war to prove himself, and the big brother is still the big brother!
Lu Ming also didn't look at himself from the perspective of the aggressor, because all this has nothing to do with right or wrong, only about his position, and now his position is in Konoha.
"Don't worry, Konoha will win!" Lu Ming's voice was faint but full of unparalleled confidence.
Looking at the indifferent but young captain in front of him, several Shangnin must have found the backbone of the heart, showed a temporary smile, and replied neatly, "Yes!" ”
And this sentence is indeed what they want to hear the most at this moment!
……
The golden sea of sand left footprints one after another, but in a moment they were buried by the wind and sand.
"Slow down and watch your surroundings!" His ears were filled with the sound of the wind, and Lu Ming shouted with his hands in his mouth. In such an environment, you can open your mouth to a mouthful of sand, and it is also salty.
If it weren't for the sand ninja who live here all year round, it would have been difficult for people from other countries to adapt to this place. But then again, such a windy and sandy situation should be the best time for them to sneak attack, Lu Ming thought so in his heart, and gestured to everyone in his hand to signal vigilance.
……
……
"My lord, it's almost time to make a move, right?" A head wrapped in cloth suddenly poked out from under the sand in the distance, looked at the figure in the wind and sand, and whispered a proposal.
"Yongtai, calm down, don't be too anxious, wait for them to get a little closer......" The man led by Sha Shinobi gently pressed his palm and said in an educational tone. Although he saw people, although he wanted to make a move in his heart, reason told him that this was not the best range for them to perform ninjutsu.
The closer the opponent is to the central area, the better the effect of ninjutsu, and the eight elite ninjas have already ambushed at their respective punctuation points.
The closer this simple ambush is, the greater the probability of being detected, and thanks to this sand fall, the smell is masked and the view is blocked, otherwise, this approach is absolutely stupid!
Came and came, and came ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters closer...... Fifty meters, by the time he reached fifty meters, he had clearly felt that the opposing team had completely entered their encirclement.
This kind of weather is a disturbance to the enemy and a disturbance to teammates, and the initiation of ninjutsu needs to be consistent, how to maintain consistency across such a distance in such weather, everyone born in Sand Ninja Village has their own methods.
"Eita, pull!"
At the same time as giving the order, he pulled his hand, and a steel wire was scraped out of the sand and quickly exposed to the side, and the same was true for Yongtai's side.
As the steel wires were pulled by the force in their hands, the eight steel wires appeared and disappeared in the wind and sand, forming a similar octagonal fence to quietly surround the people pacing in the wind and sand.
Perfect position, the sand ninja man couldn't help but show a happy smile, and the huge amount of chakra was gently put together with his hands, ready to be in place, "Ninja, prison sand burial!" ”
At the same time, the same sound sounded in the other eight locations, but they were swallowed up by the sound of wind and sand in an instant.
Led by a Shangnin, the nine chakras instantly stirred the sand and gravel in front of them, and suddenly dozens of figures inside began to fall back and forth, and then the body was driven to rotate by the quicksand that was stirring at great speed.
At this moment, whether it was a hard rock or a thorny shrub, they could not escape this huge quicksand with a diameter of nearly 100 meters, and it was stirred to pieces. And the same is true of people, although they can't see the picture of flesh and blood because of the wind and sand, everyone can imagine it.
Even if the flesh is too strong to be broken, buried in the ground at a depth of two hundred meters, lacking oxygen, it is also a dead word, compared to the crispness of the former, the latter is much more painful......
