"It's getting late, so let's go back and rest." Tsunade disbanded the meeting.
However, Nara Shikaku stood in place, wanting to speak and stopped.
"Lujiu, do you have any other suggestions?" Tsunade still values this military advisor's point of view, after all, this is the old man's favorite.
The old man's vision is still worthy of recognition.
Of course, most of the time.
"Tsunade-senpai, I have reason to believe that Sha Yin will adopt unconventional tactics." Nara Shikahisa replied.
Everyone stopped leaving.
"You say." Tsunade motioned for the other party to continue.
"In the head-on battle, Sand Yin actually doesn't have any advantage, plus we have the geographical advantage of Kikyo City; Time does not allow them to fight a war of attrition with us...... Therefore, the other party will never choose to fight hard. β
"If I were the commander of the Sand Hide, there would be only two ways I could think of: one would be to weaken the enemy as much as possible. That is, the poisoning mentioned earlier, as long as it is successful, it will be a devastating blow to the enemy. β
"However, the conclusion of the medical class today is that it is impossible to ......"
"Of course, I'd rather like it, but we didn't find each other's intentions. But I don't have any evidence, and I can't guess what exactly Shagakure did. β
There is indeed not enough information, and no matter how evil the IQ is, he can't guess Sha Yin's true intentions.
"The second way out is to decapitate the enemy's brains."
This bold speculation set off a wave in everyone's hearts.
"As long as the enemy's brain is destroyed, the enemy will be like a piece of scattered sand without cohesion, and morale will be even lowered, so how much combat power will be left at that time?"
"But Sha Yin, will you have such a determination?" The one who raised the question was the deputy squad leader of the Konoha Shangnin class, his name was Kimura, and he was also an extremely powerful elite Shinobi.
He had performed many difficult missions with White Fang in the Second Great Ninja War, killing hundreds of Sand Hidden Ninjas, and if Sand Hidden had a must-kill list, he would be on the list.
Elites like him who have survived the war can be said to know a lot about Sha Yin.
In Kimura's eyes, the background of the sand does not support them to compete with Konoha.
This is especially true of cutting-edge forces.
You must know that the brain of Konoha is now one of the three ninjas, Tsunade, the disciple of the second generation Hokage, Maru Star Kosuke, the 15th generation of "Pig Deer Butterfly" Nara Shikaku, Akido Dingza, and Yamanaka Haiyi, the three upper ninjas, the two elite upper ninja of the Konoha upper ninja class, and several legion commanders who also have good upper ninja strength.
Want to decapitate these forces? How many powerful ninjas can you take on such a task?
If not, then how many ordinary ninjas would they have to sacrifice in exchange for the results they wanted?
Can they make that determination?
"Kimura-senpai, we shouldn't underestimate the enemy." Nara Shikaku reminded the Konoha hero of the same era as White Fang, "The fact that Sunagakure was able to stay and continue the siege of Kikyo Castle has already proved their resolve. β
"Lujiu, I no longer doubt Sand Yin's determination to capture Kikyo City this time." Tsunade said in a deep voice, and she continued to ask with incomprehensible doubts, "But now that we are here, what can they do to deal a blow to us?" β
Their group is now in the middle of Kikyo City, with tens of thousands of Konoha troops on the periphery, how can Sand Hide raid into them and perform a decapitation operation on them?
"Although I know that there are flying eagles in the sand. But the size of those eagles ...... Not enough to carry people, right? A legion commander said with his imagination.
"If you want to sneak into the city through the river...... Not to mention our own vigilant forces, as if they try to enter the city through the water, they will also trigger the alarm of the barrier. The other Legion Commander similarly shook his head to deny the possibility, as Konoha's defense system consisted of targeting enemies in the waters.
Everyone was silent for a while, and they really couldn't think of more possibilities.
Suddenly, Kosuke Maruki said two words: "Underground." β
Nara Shikahisa seemed to have caught something, and he said, "Maruhoshi-senpai, what do you mean?!" β
"We know of two large fortifications that were dug into the rock. If Sand Cakure replicated their experiences this time...... Then the enemy could come straight to us from underground. β
"Those two fortifications were carried out by Sagakure after the end of the Second Shinobi War, and now they have only been near Kikyo Castle for a long time, and there is no time at all." Someone immediately retorted.
This is crazy, how can Sand Cain be able to open a tunnel of several kilometers directly to the center of Kikyo City in a short period of time.
"No...... It is possible, because no one has ever scouted any information on this. β
"The Sand Hide's plot against Kikyo City has proven not to be improvised, but has been planned since before the war."
"So...... If the first Sand Hidden troops to enter the Fire Nation had been carrying out this operation...... That's been a few months now. The more Nara Shikahisa spoke, the more frightened he became.
The crowd shuddered.
They all glanced at the seemingly solid earth beneath their feet......
Can the soft soil really stop Sha Yin's determination to move forward?
Suddenly, Kimura looked out the window, his gaze crossed a distance of hundreds of meters, and his eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the towering watchtower.
This watchtower is one of the few sentry posts in the center of Kikyo City, and is the closest guard force to them.
Considering the needs of the actual war, Konoha has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the outer cities, so the number of guards in the central city has not been large, and the enchantment class has not arranged any means of vigilance here.
Who would have thought that the enemy would break through from this place?
"Kimura-senpai?"
"Is there anyone else at that sentry post?" Kimura clearly remembered that in the middle of the meeting, he had vaguely caught a glimpse of two figuresβthey were two Konoha guards.
But now that the moonlight has dissipated, with the limited visual distance of ordinary people at night, no one will be able to see clearly for a while.
It's just that Kimura's reaction has alerted everyone.
"I'll send someone to take a look, and then I'll send some more people over right away." One of the corps commanders immediately said.
So saying, he went out of the room.
"The strength of the guards here is indeed too thin, I'll call the upper ninja class to gather." Kimura said that he also went out of the room.
"Then let's wait for news." Tsunade motioned for everyone to wait patiently.
In fact, needless to say, everyone consciously stayed at this time.
Because everyone's heart is already hanging: the enemy...... Probably right under their feet!
Suddenly, there was an inaudible "pop" outside the door, breaking the silence of the conference room.
βοΌοΌβ Immediately, everyone became alarmed.
"Kimura?" Takumi Ueno asked in a deep voice.
"Oh...... It's nothing, I'll come when I go. Kimura's voice came from outside the door.
Everyone looked at each other, and only saw the incredible shock in each other's eyes.
Nara Shikaku immediately raised his hand and signaled everyone not to act rashly.
Marushi Kosuke shouted towards the door, "Kimura, you wait, I'll go with you." β
"Good...... I'll wait for you. β
Everyone in the room has pulled out the kunai.
Kosuke Maruki walked slowly towards the unknown door......
