Headquarters of the Union Army, rest area.

As the conflict on the battlefield continued to escalate, even the people in the rest area located in the rear inevitably felt panicked and ready to attack at any time.

In such a situation, no one will inevitably have to be aware of going to the battlefield.

After completing the defense mission of Turtle Island, the three of Ning Ci, Tian Tian and Li Luo of the Kai team to which Yuan Muye belonged, followed the captain of the upper ninja to the headquarters to rest temporarily, and after the captain Maitkai performed a confidential mission, the three were also left behind. According to the instructions of the superiors, their next work will be arranged in the headquarters.

Among the three, Tian Tian and Li Luo are middle ninjas, and Ning Ci, as the only upper ninja other than the captain Maitkai, naturally became the temporary acting captain of the team.

At this point, he summoned the two to his room for an internal meeting.

"I don't know what happened to Mr. Kai, since yesterday, I haven't seen anyone else, even if I perform some confidential tasks, it's too much secrecy."

After coming to Ning Ci's room every day, he couldn't help complaining.

As the middle ninja of the alliance army, she naturally didn't know about the beheading operation carried out by the upper echelons of the alliance army, but she only learned that their top ninja captain was on a top-secret mission, and even the team members did not reveal a single thing, and the answer given by the superior was to let Ning Ci manage it on his behalf and be ready to attack at any time.

"If it's an important S-Class mission, it makes sense not to be informed of unrelated people outside the mission. Most of the tasks carried out by Mr. Kai are such top-secret and dangerous extremely difficult tasks. ”

As the acting captain of Kai's team, Ning Ci seemed very calm, as if Kai's departure had no impact on him, but he just accepted this reality calmly.

"It's okay, every day, Mr. Kai is also burning his youth on the battlefield at this time. As students and disciples, we can't disgrace Teacher Kai either! ”

is different from the decadent Tiantian, Li Luo maintains a state of excitement full of fighting spirit, and his blood is boiling. Looking at his appearance, he should be eager to go to the battlefield immediately and have a bloody battle with the enemy.

"Fools are really carefree."

Tian Tian glanced at each other speechlessly.

The battlefield is not a place for blood, and this is not a simulated training battle, and the ninjas who fight will show mercy at critical moments. Once this kind of battle can't be 'cleared', there is only one way out.

In this war, there are countless ninjas who died on the battlefield because of their blood.

"Ning Ci, you can also talk about him, it's not an exam now."

"Give it up, once Lee is in this state, he won't listen to anything. Just like Naruto's guy. ”

Ning Ci made a pertinent assessment.

"Uh......"

Tian Tian had no choice but to retreat, these two guys do have something in common, when targeting certain things, they will become tendons and never give up.

"Speaking of which, Naruto doesn't seem to have seen it today. and Uncle Zhuli, who was in the clouds, didn't see anyone else. ”

Tian Tian suddenly remembered something and noticed something abnormal.

"Probably the same as Mr. Kai, what kind of tasks did they go to. However, that's their business, it's none of our business, and if they can't handle it, there's no point in our past. ”

Ning Ci spoke calmly, concentrating the war of all the top ninjas in the world, such as the upper ninja of standard strength, which is no different from those middle ninjas and lower ninjas, they are just cannon fodder. To put it nicely, it can be regarded as cannon fodder for a little bigger.

In the battles of the top ninjas, their power is insignificant.

Unless it is a standard army, but due to the scarcity of the number of shinobi, such a condition is difficult to establish.

Therefore, Ning Ci is willing to accept such a cruel reality. The title of genius is too ambiguous. Who can go to forbearance, who is not a genius in the eyes of others?

Four years ago, maybe he could compete with Naruto and Sasuke with his excellent strength. But what about now? After the potential of these two people was completely transformed into strength, he, the genius of the Hyuga family, seemed insignificant in this war.

Sometimes, being willing to be ordinary can make him see more things clearly.

The look in Ning Ci's eyes every day was a little complicated, since the middle ninja exam four years ago, she had vaguely felt that Ning Ci had changed a little.

No longer like the ninja school, or the sharpness of the time when he first became a shinobi, but has become introverted, hiding all the external aura and returning to an ordinary state of mind.

She didn't know where these changes in Ning Ci came from, but she faintly felt that it was related to the joint Zhongnin exam and the Hyuga clan, and her mind was deeper than before.

After all, the opposition between the Hyuga family and the clan family, as long as it is a Konoha ninja, no one will ever know nothing.

"Ning Ci, what are we going to do next?"

Every day still regards Ning Ci as the backbone, with him as the leader.

Not only because he is the only shinobi in the team, but also the rest of the emotions, such as the longing that has been in the depths of his heart since his school days......

Let her have 100% trust in Ning Ci.

Xiao Li, as the third person, also sat down and looked at Ning Ci with a calm face.

Even if his personality is different, he also has great trust in Ning Ci, a genius who has always been ahead of him.

They are both rivals and close friends who can be trusted with their backs.

"Now that the situation is tense, it is not surprising when to go to the front line, even if we are now in the rear of the Alliance Army, we cannot be completely taken lightly, in my opinion-"

As Ning Ci was speaking, suddenly a 'meteor' exploded in the night outside the window, and then on the pitch-black night, a strong white light erupted, almost illuminating the sky above the entire Alliance Army Headquarters Fortress, becoming as bright as day.

Like a small sun hanging in the night sky.

Drops –

Drops –

Drops –

This was followed by the sharp sound of the sirens in the fortress, which directly broke the silence of the night and woke people from the peace and comfort.

"That's—"

Tian Tian and Xiao Li acted at the same time, and quickly ran to the window of the room and opened the window.

The hot wind blew in from outside, mixed with an unsettling smell.

The 'sun' in the night sky did not fall, but hung high in the air, continuously releasing light.

Without the slightest preparation, more 'meteors' were launched in the distance, and around the fortress of the Alliance Army Headquarters, the protective barrier lit up like an upside-down bowl, protecting the fortress.

This barrier is shrouded even underground, preventing the Earth Ninja from infiltrating.

However, it was too late for the barrier to be activated.

The meteor's cannon fire flew through and hit the signal tower inside the fortress, causing the tall signal tower to be wiped out in the fire.

The artillery fire continued to bombard, crashing into the protective barrier, and the fire and impact on the transparent parapet made the barrier shake and turbulent, like a flat boat in a tsunami, which could be capsized by an enraged sea at any moment.

Because of the impact of countless artillery fire and enchantment, the entire piece of land based on the headquarters fortress also trembled violently, and the ground in some places obviously showed traces of cracking, and then cracked in all directions with one 'point' as the starting position.

The scorching storm swept in, and the open windows in Ning Ci's room, the glass was directly shattered, and a large number of glass shards were scattered around.

If it weren't for hiding with Xiao Li every day, it was likely to be injured by the shattered glass slag.

Seeing such a terrifying scene, Tian Tian and Xiao Li were stunned, although they knew that tonight might not be very peaceful, but they did not expect that the enemy's firepower would be so fierce, directly attacking the hinterland of the alliance headquarters.

"This is the north side...... Wait, how did the enemy get here? Aren't there people from the 4th Wing stationed there? What's going on? ”

Tiantian's face was extremely shocked.

The Fourth Wing has more than 20,000 ninjas, with the fog ninjas who are the best at naval warfare, plus the Chakra cannons supported by Yun Yin, and a large number of military warships, whether it is the combat effectiveness of the ninjas, or the weapons and equipment, they are among the few in the alliance army.

With such elite combat power, how could it be possible for the enemy to silently touch the headquarters of the Alliance Army from the north?

Such a scene that defied common sense made Tiantian's brain confused, and he didn't know what had happened to the Fourth Wing in the north, which caused this kind of thing to happen.

"I don't know, I always have a bad premonition. Ningci, every day, let's go too, it seems that there will be a bitter battle next! ”

Xiao Li's face was full of seriousness, and he poured chakra into his legs, ready to jump from the window and go to the battlefield.

Just as he was about to step out of the window, Ning Ci on the side suddenly moved.

The chakra silently gathered in the palm of his hand, and when Xiao Li ran towards the window again, he aimed at Xiao Li's back and quickly struck out.

Rumble!

Xiao Li's body flew out, only to feel a whirlwind of the sky, a strong pain poured all over his body, rolling on the ground non-stop, hitting the wall before he could stop.

"Ningci, you-"

Tiantian was stunned, turned his head in horror, and looked at Ning Ci.

A figure flashed in front of her as she spoke.

Bang!

The palm hit Tiantian's lower abdomen, and the force rushed into her body, Tiantian's body was weak, and she fell weakly into Ning Ci's arms, and her unconscious face was still a little incredulous and dazed.

Dongdong.

There was a knock at the door.

"Come in."

Ning Ci turned his head and let the people outside in.

The door opened, and a man of about thirty years old walked in from the outside.

With black hair and a shawl, he has a handsome appearance, and he has exactly the same white eyes as Ning Ci.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Tian Tian who fell in Ning Ci's arms, and Xiao Li, who lost his will and fell by the wall.

Ning Ji recognized the identity of the other party, the upper ninja of Hinata's split family-Hinata Yukima.

On the surface, it is a separation, but secretly it is the blade of the patriarch, and the third identity is a spy planted by Hinata Ayane in the Hyuga clan.

He is one of the members of the family who desperately longs for freedom.

Under the remote control of the Hyuga clan in the country of ghosts, the elders of the Hyuga clan pretended to surrender to the Hyuga clan, and over the years, they have passed on a lot of useful information.

In the Union Army, it seems that some unknown deeds here have paralyzed the systems of some departments of the Alliance Army.

"Just knocked unconscious, didn't you kill it directly?"

Hinata Yukima, who came in, had a smile on his face full of ridicule.

"They're my friends."

Ning Ci replied expressionlessly.

"So, how are you going to deal with them after the war? Don't forget, your current behavior is already the biggest betrayal of Konoha yet. ”

After Ning Ji heard this, he just stared at Hinata Yukima and didn't say a word.

"Forget it, this is your business, it has nothing to do with me, even if it is embarrassing at that time, it will not be me."

Hinata Yukima walked up to Xiao Li and tied his limbs with ropes, with a special rope that suppressed Chakra, which was not something that a mere shinobi could break free. Then he lifted his unconscious body and carried it on his shoulders.

"What do you do?"

Ning Ci frowned.

"Since you don't want to kill them, transport them to a 'safe' place, or the next battle may involve them. The third and second basement levels of the rest area are controlled by our men, and there are now temporary prisoner camps. ”

Hinata Yukima explained.

Ning Ji nodded, picked up Tiantian's body, and followed Hinata Yukima out of the room.

Before leaving, he glanced through the window at the night sky shining outside.

"This war...... Will it win? ”

"Victory? Which side do you say? ”

Hinata Yukima glanced at Ning Ji and sneered.

Ning Ci pursed his lips and did not respond.

Hinata Yukima exhaled softly, a slight dazy between her eyebrows, and then regained her composure.

"I know that at this critical time, everyone will feel that they are suffering from gains and losses, and they will feel unreal. But as a caged bird, even if you die, you will eventually make up your mind to look out of the cage and gaze at the free sky and die. I'm already thirty years old, and the only way to resist is now. ”

As a pawn of the upper ninja, Hinata Yukima doesn't know who wins and who loses this war.

But he was ready to die for freedom.

Even if he dies in the end, he must break free from the birdcage on his body, and he doesn't want to die depressed in the cage.

The life of the birdcage, he has had enough of it all these years.

No freedom, unto death.

“…… I know. ”

Ning Ci was silent for a moment, and he recognized Hinata Yukima's words.

Put away the complicated feelings in your heart, follow the footsteps of Hinata Yukima, and head towards the underground area of the rest area.

◎

Rumble!

The random launch of the meteor hammer quickly knocked down a wall, and in the collapsed rubble, there was also a bloodied alliance ninja, lying there motionless.

Yakushi Nonoyu, who arrived here as a wandering shrine maiden, directly attacked the medical area of the Alliance headquarters, leaving it in such chaos that they were unable to provide medical assistance to the Alliance ninjas on the front lines.

Dou, who followed Ye Naiyu's side, also easily dealt with an incoming alliance army team, leaving them in a pool of blood.

It's just that this is the hinterland of the Alliance Army headquarters, which is still an important medical area, so that Dou doesn't know where to open his mouth.

"Dean, aren't we medical ninjas who save lives? Why do we, as medical personnel, cooperate with the fighting troops to attack the enemy's hinterland? ”

"Of course, it's because the pressure on the combat troops is also very high, and only by going to the forefront of the battlefield in person can you use medical ninjutsu to provide better real-time support, isn't that the truth?"

After Ye Naiyu finished speaking, he quickly shook the meteor hammer in his hand again.

The ground and walls in front of them were brutally smashed again, crushing the incoming Alliance ninja under the rubble.

"Okay."

Dou sighed, reluctantly acknowledging this crooked reasoning.

He took out two projectiles from his ninja bag and rolled them on the ground.

A large amount of purplish-red smoke spread out, enveloping the area.

The alliance ninja with low toxicity resistance was directly paralyzed and fell uncontrollably, even the alliance ninja with extremely strong toxicity resistance felt dizzy, and the chakra of the whole body was like a turtle lying in the body, unable to launch ninjutsu smoothly.

However, Ye Naiyu and Dou didn't even wear gas masks, and their actions in the poisonous fog were idle, and with the power of the two of them, they kept harvesting the alliance ninja troops in the medical area.

……

"Wind Escape: The Art of the Great Scythe!"

In the corridor on the fourth floor of the medical area complex, Temari shook the three-star fan in his hand vigorously, blowing a violent storm, and the surrounding walls showed tragic marks of knife blades.

The two demon country shinobi who were hostile to him were wearing chakra armor, and the jade jade on the chest of the armor lit up, transforming the storm suppression that was as fierce as a blade into chakra and absorbing it into the armor.

The two men navigated the storm, grabbed their guns, and pulled the trigger.

Flames and lightning erupted from the guns.

Rumble!

The sand accumulated into a shield wall, blocking the passage and holding back the flames and thunder.

Diffuse impingement air currents, mixed with scalding heat.

"I love Luo!"

Temari looked at the person who blocked the attack for himself, it was none other than Iara.

Kankuro also took out a puppet puppet on the side and was about to step forward to fight.

"Let's go!"

My Airo frowned, feeling that the chakra on the sand was disappearing, knowing that the other party was using that special armor to absorb the chakra in the sand.

Judging from the thickness of the armor, I'm afraid it will take a strong ninjutsu to shatter it.

Otherwise, it will be absorbed in the middle of the chakra, which will cause the attack power to decay, and instead become a tonic for the armor.

Troublesome ninja equipment.

It's not so powerful that it's invincible, but it's tricky, and you can even rely on the characteristics of your ninja to contain several times your own forces.

Judging this, I Ai Luo knew that it was impossible to distinguish the victory or defeat between these two demon country shinobi in a short period of time.

Temari, who wanted to continue fighting, heard my Airo's words, and knew that he couldn't be reckless at this time, so he looked at Kankuro and shouted:

"Kanjiulang, go to the ward first and Dad will transfer away, it's not safe here!"

Kankuro nodded, and was about to retreat, when a voice came out of his back.

"No need to go, little girl, that Kazekage-sama is now a prisoner of our ranks."

A mature male voice came from the void.

Two figures, a man and a woman, suddenly emerged from the swirling air.

My Airo tightened up, and the sand around him consciously rushed to the passage behind him, hitting the comer.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sand was as hard as steel, and the successive impacts made a dull sound of hitting hard objects.

I saw the blue skull phantom, composed in the form of chakra outward, protecting a man and a woman who suddenly appeared, and it was this layer of chakra shield armor that looked extremely light and thin, successfully resisting the sand of my air.

"It's—"

My Airo's eyes widened suddenly, and then he waved his palm, and more sand rushed forward, like a rushing tsunami, unleashing an uninterrupted impact on the blue skull shield formed by Chakra.

Seeing a large amount of sand pouring in, among which the chakra should not be underestimated, Obito raised his eyebrows, and felt that the first stage of the Suzuo Nenghu, defending against such an attack was a little dangerous, and was about to add bricks on the basis of the skeleton, when Lin next to him shook his head, raised his arm, and interrupted Obito's movements:

"Obito, let me come."

As soon as the words fell, a pale blue phantom appeared on her body, like an amorphous blue flame flowing, resembling the thick tail of a giant python, stabbing forward from Lynn's back, a total of seven.

The sand that came in was suddenly scattered by these spurting tails, and then rushed towards the position of Iro and the others.

Bang!

There was a violent explosion on an entire floor, and a huge hole appeared in the center of the corridor, spreading towards the ground floor, and the ceiling above was also shattered, and large chunks of rock fell downward.

I'm Airo and the others were buried directly in the boulder pile, splashing a lot of smoke and dust.

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

Pushing away the boulder that was pressing on his body, the placket of my Airo's chest was stained with blood, and he was directly hit by the tail of the tailed beast that Lin had transformed, even if some of the sand offset part of the impact, it also broke a few ribs in his chest, and even his body began to stand up straight.

And Temari and Kankuro beside him were even more unbearable, and under that blow, there was basically only air out, no air intake.

I Airo looked warily at the large hole in the floor above and began to gather the sand around him, intending to unleash a thunderous blow to regain the disadvantage.

At the moment when his momentum was at its peak, there was a sound of breaking the air behind him, which made him startled and subconsciously turned back.

One tail wrapped around his neck, the other four around his limbs, and the remaining two tails wrapped around his torso, tightening tightly.

"Hmm......"

A muffled grunt of pain came from my Airo's mouth, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the seven tails suddenly flashing out of the distorted space behind him, catching him off guard.

Even his sand can't react in time to such a space-time technique.

In the distorted space, Obito and Rin walked out, looking at my Airo who had been controlled, his face was flat, and he didn't think that defeating me Airo was something to be proud of.

After all, the unpredictable ability of the space-time children's art, unless it has the neural reaction ability of the four generations of Hokage and Thunder Shadow, can the body subconsciously make a counterattack at the moment when the space-time child's magic is launched.

In contrast, although Airo's counterattack is faster than most ninjas, it is still too slow for Obito, who controls the time-space children's arts.

Lin manipulated the seven tails and flicked them hard, and my Airo body flew straight out, smashing through several layers of walls along the way, and falling completely motionless in the ruins.

"Using us to deal with these people is inevitably too big and useless, this kind of battle can't reflect my true strength at all."

Obito spoke in an imposing tone, his hands clasped in front of his chest, and the blue beard around him continued to operate, blocking all the strong winds caused by the battle around him, and he and Lin stood still in it.

"It's just a kaleidoscope writing wheel, and going to the battlefield of the Land of Rain is not enough qualifications. Your Suzuo Nenghu, but you were smashed by Ayane's mother with a punch before, don't you remember? It's still too reluctant to rely on space-time children's art to deal with those monsters that challenge human common sense. ”

When Lin heard Obito's complaints, she couldn't help but joke.

The space-time children's skills are very fast, but they are not invincible, the ninjas concentrated in the country of rain, their physical reflexes are first-class, super first-class level, and they want to rely on the space-time children's skills to sneak attack, too reluctantly. In addition, there is no shortage of ninjas in that place who have the existence of space-time ninjutsu, and Nagato, the leader of the Xiao organization, has raised the control of gravity to the realm of arbitrary bending space, and Obito is in his domain, so he can't successfully launch space-time children's arts, and he is likely to be swept into the spatial turbulence and eventually lost.

The Temporal Children's Art is powerful and mysterious, but if it is targeted or fails, it will also take great risks.

To put it simply, on the battlefield where monsters frequently appear, Obito uses the time-space children's technique, which is more than enough than the upper than the lower.

Besides, the combat power that the Ghost Country has invested in the Rain Country is already sufficient, and there is no need to make another move.

Kakashi is the same.

"Uh...... I was just careless in that fight. ”

Obito would never admit that it was his defeat.

"Yes, yes, it's just careless."

He smiled perfunctorily like a child.

Lin glanced around, and the surrounding Oni Country ninjas were the first to disperse, heading to various areas of the Alliance Army Headquarters to continue the battle, creating more chaos so that the outside troop leaders could drive in.

"However, it's not like we're not out of the box to go to the Rain Country battlefield, and when Kakashi gets rid of things here, we'll also go to the battlefield over there as a second-tier force. Mr. Shiraishi and the others are also fighting hard now. ”

Lin looked at the deep night sky in the direction of the Land of Rain, and lost her mind for a while.

Obito didn't speak, just put his palm on Rin's somewhat thin shoulder, and there was a look of softness and comfort in his eyes.

"Don't worry, Lin, there is a saying, good people don't live long, and disasters last for thousands of years. That soft rice man is so insidious and despicable, I think the person who can kill him is probably not born yet. ”

◎

Land of Rain.

Under the dark night, the chaotic chakra aura made the night sky look like a disturbing shadow that shrouded people's hearts.

In Ayane's blood-red vision, the humanity burning with red steam was closing the distance to her at a speed that shattered time and space, so much so that even the white eyes that surpassed the insight of the writing wheel could barely grasp how the red figure moved.

I just saw him flicker, and the middle process was all omitted, and suddenly appeared in the next position. If it wasn't for the fact that it was triggered by extreme speed, Ayane even mistakenly thought that the other party was using space-time ninjutsu to make space-time jumps.

"It's the Eight Gates Dunjia Array! This guy has opened the final door to death! ”

In an instant, Ayane reacted.

This forbidden physical technique was once short-lived on the battlefield of the Land of Wind, forcing her rival woman into a desperate situation, and finally had to rely on children's skills to barely win.

Although she disdains this forbidden technique that relies on self-harm to gain strength, she also has to admit that it can drive her rival into a desperate situation, and Bamen Dunjia also has a unique feature.

However, through the tyrannical and dangerous aura that came from the air, just by staring at it, it almost froze the blood all over the body.

Without hesitation, she gave up the pursuit of the pillars, kicked both hind legs, and dodged backwards, trying to distance herself from the red figure.

However, the red figure was like an appendage, and when she saw Ayane's movements, the figure flickered again and rushed up at a faster speed.

"Damn, I can't hide!"

Ayane's eyes widened in shock, it was obviously not a space-time jumping technique, it was just the simplest body movement, but it turned out to give her a strong feeling that she absolutely couldn't dodge.

What the hell! She cursed in her heart.

Even in the face of the speed of the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow, which surpassed the human body, it could not bring her this sense of humiliation.

Not even the white of the eye can catch it.

Rumble!

The red figure slammed into Ayane's body, eventually causing a shocking explosion that caused the air to reverberate.

Ayane only felt that the heavens and the earth were turning upside down, and an irresistible surging force knocked her huge body out with a blow.

The chakra armor shrouded in the outside of the body also instantly shattered into pieces, and the red impact, although it was not like a soft fist, could penetrate the internal organs, but it was the most rigid fist force, from the skin to the flesh, and then from the flesh to the bones.

The piercing pain made Ayane tremble, and the part that was attacked directly lost consciousness.

Bang!

The huge rabbit body falls down and easily smashes a piece of land.

However, Ayane had no intention of resting, and her body rolled over, rolling out to the side in embarrassment.

The red shock fell from the sky.

This creates a picture of a meteorite hitting the earth.

Just the aftermath made Ayane cover her arms in front of her, blocking the sharp rocks and storms that flew in, and she grinned in pain.

"Scarlet Vapor...... Kai, this kid, I didn't expect to really make this step. ”

Ruri saw the true identity of this red figure, which was none other than her former student Maitkai.

At the beginning, because he felt the strength of Maite Dai's physical skills, he wanted to fight more happily, so he left the life of his disciple.

It's just that she didn't expect that her unintentional move would really blossom one day.

This powerful Eight Gate Dun Armor, even she smelled the breath of death.

It is not the same as the Eight Gate Dunjia Array of Maite Dai.

"Bastard, don't talk cool here, you slut, it's me who was beaten! I told you a long time ago that you have to cut the grass to the roots, and with such a belligerent character, sooner or later something will go wrong. Now it's the result of your deliberate indulgence! ”

Hearing the admiration coming from Ruri, Ayane couldn't help but scold angrily.

The other party just punched her, almost breaking her bones all over her body, if she punched her again, she would still be alive?

And feeling the more and more terrifying momentum on Kai's body, almost soaring into the sky, even the ten-tailed aura that permeated the sky was shattered, and Ayane's hole shrunk, and he couldn't help but flash a look of shock.

The red figure reappeared in Tong Kong's front vision, moving at an astonishing speed that his white eyes couldn't capture, Ayane barely suppressed the panic in his heart, and a fierce color flashed in the blood-red Tong Kong.

So, her palms were aimed at Kai, who was moving on the ground, and she used the immortal chakra emitted from her palms to compress the air around her with all her might.

"Give me death!"
