35: A familiar feeling of being in the back pot
"Ashina did a good job!"
Completely different from Elder Kaguya's reaction, the Second Elder and the Third Elder of the Vortex were overjoyed.
The news of Kaguya's death was undoubtedly great news for them.
"It seems that the genius of our Vortex Clan is even more powerful!"
"Young Master Ashina is mighty!"
The Vortex people raised their arms and shouted in unison.
"Even the daughter of your patriarch has been killed, what are you fighting with us?
"Kill, wipe out all the Kaguya clan!"
The morale of the Vortex clan skyrocketed, and one by one they launched a general attack as if they had been knocked with fierce medicine.
On the other hand, the Kaguya clan is in a slump, and they are all uneasy because of Kaguya's death, especially the two elders of Kaguya, Kaguya died in their ranks, and they are inevitably to blame for being the elders, and they will inevitably be held accountable by Kaguyai.
"Withdraw!"
The Second Elder Kaguya immediately made a decision and hurriedly gave the order to retreat.
The morale of the Kaguya clan was already low, and they turned around and ran away without saying a word, and they had no intention of fighting.
"Where to run!"
"Chase, beat the water dogs!"
The Uzumaki people screamed as they pursued, eager to wipe out all the Kaguya.
After the Kaguya clan left the corpses of more than a dozen clansmen as a retreat price, the second elder of the whirlpool accepted it when he saw it, and called the clansmen to stop: "Don't chase, there may be an ambush behind them, let's go back to the iron mine first." ”
Everyone still didn't stop, they just felt that they had never fought such a happy battle, and they were full of heart.
Then the second elder led his clan back to the battlefield and counted the casualties of the battle.
It was a well-deserved victory, with the Kaguya Clan leaving behind eighteen corpses, while only four were killed and nine wounded on the Uzumaki side.
The second elder ordered people to collect the corpses of the Kaguya clan, and burned them all in one fire, if the corpses were left alone, it would easily cause diseases and plagues.
The bodies of their whirlpools are collected and brought back to the clan for burial after the war, and if the fighting lasts too long, they will cremate the bodies before they decompose.
"Meet the Second Elder and the Third Elder."
The Vortex Clansmen guarding the iron mine untied the Four Purple Flame Formations and ran quickly to meet everyone.
They had just witnessed the entire process of Kaguya's defeat in the enchantment, and they were both excited and happy at this time.
"The Kaguya clan doesn't know whether they are alive or dead, and they dare to provoke and attack us, they are looking for death!"
"Kaguya is nothing more than that, I was bullied by them before, but now I am no match for us at all."
"The main thing is that Young Master Ashina is brave and invincible, and he killed Kaguya Koto, and he won the game in one fell swoop."
Everyone complimented, attributing the main credit for this battle to Ashina's head.
Ashina was embarrassed, Kaguya Koto died in the hands of his shadow clone in a daze, he still didn't understand what was going on, and his heart was faintly empty.
"Ashina, that Kaguya Koto is the second most famous genius of the Kaguya clan after Kaguya, and at the age of seventeen, he is about to enter the ranks of the elite ninja, you can kill her head-on, and the dragon patriarch will be very happy if he knows!"
The second elder also praised Ashina, and the more he looked at him, the more satisfied he became, and he felt that the whirlpool dragon had really given birth to a pair of good children.
It's a pity that the second son of the vortex dragon is really not a weapon, otherwise the three children would all be dragons and phoenixes among people, and how majestic and face-saving it is.
"Let's not talk about this yet, Second Elder, let's go and support the other teams." Ashina said that he didn't know how to tell others about the change in the shadow clone.
"Okay." The second elder nodded with satisfaction, he thought that Ashina was not arrogant or impatient, and his temperament was excellent, and he had already shown the bearing of the head of the clan at a young age.
Mito is a woman after all, and if she can, it would be better to let Ashina become the patriarch in the future.
Then he asked the clansmen guarding the iron mine, "Where are the fourth and fifth elders?" ”
The clansman replied, "The two elders have gone to support the northeast team." ”
The second elder muttered slightly: "To the northeast is Mito's team, so we will go to support the Sixth Elder and the Seventh Elder. ”
He was very relieved that Mito was even stronger than many of the elders, so he decided to support the other teams and help the inferior rather than the superior.
The area of the iron mine is very large, and the reason why the Hui Ye Well has divided five groups of men and horses to attack from different directions is to weaken the defensive strength of the iron mine by dividing the troops and encircling it, and it is not easy for the four elders and the fifth elder to hold on to the present with the four purple flame arrays.
The team of the six elders and the seventh elder was in the southwest, and when the second elder and his group arrived, the six elders and others were fighting with the Kaguya clan in full swing.
"The Kaguya clan in the northwest direction has been defeated, six elders, we are here to help you!"
The second elder shouted, and a word shook the military heart of the Kaguya clan.
"Is the team from the northwest really defeated?"
Elder Kaguya was flustered and uncertain.
After fighting hard for a while, Elder Kaguya found that he didn't know if the northwest direction was defeated or not, anyway, the pressure on his side had really increased.
He was besieged by two elders of the Vortex Clan, and he was able to hold on at first, but after a long time, he would definitely not be able to bear it, and there were many casualties among the clansmen below.
"Retreat!"
In the end, Elder Kaguya gritted his teeth and withdrew his troops, and at this moment the defeat was already obvious, and all he could do was to stop the loss in time.
The two teams of the whirlpool converged, and they were not very afraid of ambushes, and they chased and killed for more than ten miles, and beat the water dogs fiercely, until the Kaguya clan left more than 30 corpses at sunset, and they collected their troops and returned to the iron mine.
If it weren't for the deep pursuit, coupled with the darkness of the sky, the Second Elder would even want to annihilate this team.
Mito and Uzumaki fought for a long time, and also killed the enemy in the evening, and the five teams gathered in the iron mine that night to discuss the next strategy.
"Ashina, did you really kill Kaguya?"
After learning of Ashina's battle report, Uzumaki was quite surprised.
"Sort of."
Ashina scratched the back of his head and said vaguely, inexplicably feeling like he was taking the blame for the shadow clone.
And this feeling is familiar, and the sense of déjà vu is strong.
The Uzumaki was speechless.
A group of elders vied with each other to praise Ashina, believing that he was no longer an ordinary genius, and in two years, he might be able to rank as one of the Eight Masters of the Warring States along with Mito, Tsuruma and others.
Mito wanted to speak and stopped, it's a good thing that his younger brother has made a military exploit, but Kaguya Koto can't be killed simply, killing her alone is equivalent to stabbing Kaguya's hornet's nest, how can Kaguya Well and Kaguya let go of his brother without a fight?
In order to kill Ashina to avenge, they are afraid that they will do whatever it takes.
"Tomorrow on the battlefield, you follow Mito's side closely, and you must not act rashly."
Uzumaki remonstrated to Ashina, apparently sharing Mito's concerns.
He was very helpless, the second son was hated by Kaguya without a fight, which caused him to dare not let his second son go to the battlefield, and now the younger son has caused even more hatred...... You can't and can't let your youngest son go to war!
