"Have you found out what is going on in Fallen Leaf City now?" Jiraiya asked in a deep voice.

"We can only confirm that there is an army of about 1,000 people attacking Fallen Leaf City, but the exact situation of the battle is unknown." A Konoha shadow ninja replied.

"When?"

"About half an hour ago."

Jiraiya looked at the bloody battlefield in front of him, his brows tightened, and his mood gradually sank.

Not long ago, the Konoha reinforcements he led encountered another Sand Hidden army on the way to Fallen Leaf City, and the two sides quickly engaged in a fierce battle.

It's just that in this way, the mission to rescue Fallen Leaf City has been delayed...... Because the battle here is not going to end in a while.

If the enemy here is just some miscellaneous fish, then he can immediately get out and go to the rescue himself.

However, the fierce and dangerous battles and the constant news from the shadows show that the enemy's strength is far superior to theirs......

Now that he is the commander of this Konoha army, it is impossible for him to put this entire army in danger because he is eager to save his apprentices.

"Go and call Kosuke Marusuke."

"Yes!"

What I want to do is to ask Shimizu's teacher Maru Xing Kosuke now, so that this senior, who has the strength of elite Shangninja, will first set off with a small army to rescue Fallen Leaf City.

He's helped Qing Shui before, and if that guy from Kosuke sees it, there shouldn't be any reason to refuse his request, right?

"That's all it can be......" Jiraiya sighed in his heart.

"Jiraiya, are you looking for me?" Suddenly, a middle-aged man appeared in front of Jiraiya.

"Ah...... It is Kosuke senior. There is indeed something to help. ”

"As the commander-in-chief of this army, you directly gave the order, what are you doing in such a roundabout way?" Marushi Kosuke said strangely.

"Ahem, the old man said he wouldn't let you go on a too dangerous mission...... It just so happens that this task is a bit daunting, and I happen to have no one here who can be trusted and at the same time strong...... Come to think of it, it's just you. ”

"Where are the safe tasks during the war? Since I chose to join this war, it was naturally to contribute my meager strength. ”

“…… Good. Then I'll get straight to the point. Kosuke-senpao, I need you to bring 5 teams of ninjas to rescue Fallen Leaf City, there are about 1,000 people there now, we must get there as soon as possible......" Jiraiya paused, and then continued to explain, "The Sand Hide, who is now fighting with us, is unprecedentedly strong, and the transfer of these 5 teams is my limit...... There's really no extra power at your disposal. ”

Marushi Kosuke was not surprised by the difficulties here now, and he could also see the difficulty and strength of the enemy, so he turned to ask, "Is it because of Mizuto and Yoshimaru?" ”

Jilai also hesitated slightly, then nodded solemnly, and said softly: "This time the enemy is very well prepared, and Fallen Leaf City probably can't hold it...... Can I trust you? Kosuke seniors? By all means, be sure to bring them back......"

Originally, Konoha's plan was to let Jiraiya lead a large army to rescue Fallen Leaf City, but now he has killed such a powerful enemy halfway......

As the commander, he couldn't leave here, so he could only do his best and send 5 teams of ninjas to Fallen Leaf City to support.

"Okay, I promise you." Marushi Kosuke suddenly sighed and said, "It would be nice if Shimizu was still alive......"

Jiraiya paused, and he said firmly: "What I learned about Qing Shui is that he only disappeared temporarily and did not die in battle, because no one said that his body was found. ”

"In fact, the absence of a corpse is the greatest good thing, which means that there is still a glimmer of life."

Kosuke smiled reluctantly and nodded, "Indeed, maybe he is recuperating somewhere else at this time......"

It's just that this smile contains too much loneliness and sadness.

Because Gu Jie still had the second half of the sentence in his heart that he didn't say, 'Qing Shui's disappearance is just like Zuo Wei at that time. Since then, there has been no news of ......

………………

About half an hour ago, dozens of kilometers away in Fallen Leaf City, thousands of Sand Hidden troops were already on the verge of the city.

Today, Fallen Leaf City is just a dilapidated fortress with less than thirty Konoha ninjas with the strength to fight, and the rest are wounded.

This can be said to be a lose-lose situation.

However, in the face of such a terrible situation, Watergate still maintained the calm that a good commander should have, and at this time he was calmly giving orders one after another.

It's all about being able to get the most out of their team and kill as many enemies as possible.

As for crushing the enemy's attack, Watergate knew that they would not be able to do it......

On one occasion before, the large army of Sand Hidden was completely destroyed by the trap of the detonation charm and the near-invincible Flying Thunder God that he had set up in advance......

However, how could Sha Yin make the same mistake again......

And now that Konoha has all the hole cards, the enemy must be prepared this time.

How can the Flying Thunder God alone kill this army of a thousand people?!

Looking at the people who were determined to fight to the end with the heart of death, a trace of apology flashed in Mizumon's heart, after all, he did not bring all the remaining companions in Fallen Leaf City to witness the dawn of hope......

"Let's go." Mizumon reined in his mind, mentioned kunai, and took the lead in rushing into the enemy formation.

Yoshimaru and Satomi followed.

The phalanx formed by the three of them was like a sharp knife, easily tearing through the position of the sand hide, and then the rest of the Konoha ninjas swarmed up......

……

…………

………………

"It's time to go far." At this time, Qing Shui was hiding in a tree, and he once again avoided a sand hidden army.

This was the third time he had encountered Sha Yin's army, and all of them were more than one legion.

If it weren't for the fact that his perception range had reached more than 400 meters now, he might have entered the warning range of these Sand Hidden Forces with such a high-speed advance...... Then it will inevitably be another fierce battle.

"But they're all going in the same direction...... Is there something important going on? "Once or twice can be said to be accidental, if there is a third time, it has to be thought about. Sha Yin must have some kind of intention to move the army so frequently.

"This direction is...... Kikyo City? ”

Also, after all, Sha Yin took such a lot of trouble to dig that tunnel in the southwest of the Fire Country, and dug such a huge project, what else could it be for besides plotting Kikyo City?

However, Kikyo City was too far away from him.

His destination is the same as Zilai's - Fallen Leaf City. There, there are still his companions who are still fighting.

After a series of long journeys, Fallen Leaf City is finally close at hand.
