Ninja school teacher, I can become stronger by teaching.

Chapter 631: Defeated, Enemy on Three Sides (asking for monthly ticket)
"We've fallen into a trap, quickly fire the flare!" Mito Kado Yan gave the order quickly.

Although he fell into a trap, Mizuto Menen was not too panicked.

Panic cannot solve the problem. Calmly thinking about how to break the impasse is what a qualified ninja should do.

call out! Bang!
Upon receiving the order, the Konoha ninja quickly launched the highest level flares.

"Move towards the north!" Mizuto Menyan ordered immediately.

Teacher Chen's team was not far away from them.

If they could meet up with Teacher Chen's team in time, they would not only be able to escape the crisis, but might even be able to reverse the situation and fight back.

"You can't come and go as you please here." Gojira Yagura flew towards Mitomon En with an iron rod in his hand.

The elite members of the Mist Hidden Guard behind him also took action to clear the obstacles for their boss.

"Let's see if you can stop it." Mizuto Menen opened the large roll of paper hanging in front of his chest and quickly formed seals to condense chakra.

"Handle tools and attack with hidden weapons!"

Whoosh! !

Dozens of kunai flew towards Karatachi Yagura at a rapid speed.

However, Karuta Yagura did not swing the iron rod to knock down the kunai, but instead concentrated his chakra and stretched out his right hand.

"Water Style: Mirror Technique!"

A large amount of water flow appeared and quickly formed a huge round mirror in front of Goji Yagura.

Boom! !
The kunai shot at the water mirror, causing a series of explosions, which made the water mirror fluctuate continuously.

Although the detonating talisman on Mitomon En's kunai was very hidden and clever, it was still captured by Karatachi Yagura.

Whoosh!
The moment he blocked the explosion, Karutagi Yagura withdrew his water jutsu and rushed in front of Mito Kado En, waving an iron rod.

At the critical moment, Mizuto Menen summoned an iron rod and swung it with all his strength to block Karuta Yagura's iron rod.

when! !

Accompanied by a crisp and loud metal collision sound, the two iron bars collided violently. As both sides used considerable strength, tiny sparks splashed at the intersection.

chap!
Karutagi Yagura's expression remained unchanged as he pressed Mito Kado En's iron rod to slide. His iron rod was specially made with an iron hook on the top.

Under the tremendous force of Karutagi Yagura, the iron hook slashed towards Mito Kado En's head at an extremely fast speed.

Mitomon's flame exploded with chakra, twisting the iron rod and deflecting Karatachi Yagura's attack.

He learned the stick technique from Sarutobi Hiruzen in the past, and it is considered the long-handled weapon with which he is most proficient.

Whoops! !
Dang Dang! !
The two men brandished their weapons with steady and powerful steps. Iron bars and rods drew silver arcs in the air. The strength and speed of both sides were almost the same, and it was difficult to tell who was better for a while.

Realizing that close combat would not produce any results, Mito Menhen suddenly burst out and distanced himself, swung the long stick in his hand towards Karuta Yagura like a spear, and began to use the summoning scroll again.

A large bow and several arrows appeared in front of Mito Kado En.

Mizuto Menen quickly bent the bow and drew the arrow, and shot two arrows with wind-attribute chakra in succession.

Goju Yagura raised his hand again and used water jutsu to defend himself.

The first arrow sank into the water but failed to penetrate the water mirror. It only caused a lot of ripples on the water mirror.

Swish!
The second arrow shot through the fluctuating mirror.

The arrow broke through the water mirror and splashed water onto Gojira Yagura's face, irritating his nerves.

At this critical moment, Goji Yagura turned his head suddenly, and a blood mark appeared on his cheek.

"I underestimated this guy. Such a fast and accurate arrow!" Feeling the wetness on his face, Goju Yagura's heart was beating wildly.

At this moment, his heart, which had been somewhat unstable due to his great advantage, calmed down.

There is a reason why Mizuto Menen can sit in the high-level position of Konoha. His strength should not be underestimated.

"What a pity." Mizuto Menyan let out a sigh and put the bow back into the scroll.

This move of his is specifically used to ambush people. If it fails, this battle will be basically useless.

"Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

Mizuto Menen took out a huge shuriken from the scroll and threw it towards Karatachi Yagura, then quickly formed seals.

Under the influence of chakra, the huge shuriken was split into two and then into four.

"Water Mirror Jutsu!"

Karuta Yagura created the water mirror again, but this water mirror was not used for defense, but for attack.

A ninja who looked exactly like Mito Kado En rushed out of the water mirror and also used the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique.

Boom! !
The four huge shurikens canceled out the attack, but the copied Mizuto Kado En still rushed towards Mizuto Kado En, and disappeared immediately after a fight.

"Water Release: Water Iron Cannon Technique!"

Kizuna Shingetsu, who had pulled out her hand, seized the opportunity, made her two palms into a pistol shape and aimed at Mito Kado En, shooting out several streams of liquid like bullets.

"Water Release·Water Fang Bullet!"

On the other side, Momoguru Kawazawa also quickly formed seals, forming a large number of water bombs in front of him and attacking Mito Kado En.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

Yagura Karakura consumed a large amount of chakra to create an extremely thick water dragon.

Suddenly he was besieged by three powerful ninjas. Even though there were Konoha ninjas to block them, Mizuto Kado En was still injured.

Mizuto Menen kept retreating with the impact of the water dragon, his eyes constantly observing the situation on the entire battlefield.

"It's not good. I'm afraid most of the Kirigakure who invaded this time are here." Mitomon En frowned.

As the strongest fighter, he is not inferior to Yagura Karatachi, but if you look at the entire battlefield, Konoha is almost at a complete disadvantage, and it is simply unrealistic to want to fight and retreat at the same time.

"Is there no other way but to fight to the death to break out?" Mizuto Menyan hesitated.

If he sacrificed most of the people, he would be able to escape with a group of elite troops.

However, in this case, the mission can be declared a failure because six or seven hundred ninjas may be killed.

"No, we have to hold on." Mito Menyan quickly formed hand seals and summoned a large number of kunai to shoot at the surrounding Kirigakure ninjas.

He didn't want to give up so many ninjas here.

Not to mention that most of the 700 ninjas here are Chunins. Even if they were 700 qualified Genins, it would take a lot of energy to train them.

Konoha was under attack from many sides and was already short of manpower, so he couldn't give up so easily.

Although Mitomon En had a strong will to fight, it was still difficult to change the situation of the battle.

He and Yagura Karuta were only on par with each other, and even after being injured, he was still no weaker than Yagura Karuta. However, Yagura Karuta had many more elite soldiers than Mito Kado En.

The number of Konoha ninjas on the battlefield continued to decrease, and Mito Kado En's heart continued to waver.

It’s not that he was afraid of death, but if he didn’t choose to sacrifice most people to break through, everyone might die here.

"Konoha Dragon God!"

Just as Mitomon En was preparing to break out at all costs, a green dragon broke through the Kirigakure siege, and a powerful storm swept up the Kirigakure ninjas and tore them to pieces, along with a large number of ninjas wearing Konoha ninja uniforms.

Mitomon Yan showed a look of joy and shouted quickly: "Chen Jonin, let's break out together, don't fight to the end!"

The Kirigakure's attack was more fierce than he had imagined.

Now he is seriously injured and his team has suffered heavy losses, so he is not suitable for a decisive battle with Kirigakure.

"It would be better if he divided his troops into three groups." Karuju Yagura showed a regretful expression.

If the number of Konoha ninja troops coming was reduced by one third, then he and Teacher Chen's ninja team would be eliminated together.

"Chase! Kill as many Konoha ninjas as possible!" ordered Karuta Yagura.

It is unrealistic to keep all of them, but it is still possible to destroy some of the Konoha ninja forces.

The two armies chased each other until the Konoha Ninja Army reached the central and northern regions. Only then did Yagura give up the pursuit. If he continued to chase, he would easily get himself killed. After all, this was the Land of Fire, and Konoha was fighting on home soil.

Karutagi Yagura couldn't wait to report the news of his great victory back to the Hidden Mist Village.

When the Third Mizukage learned of Karatachi Yagura's victory, he first held a meeting to commend him, and then sent six hundred Mist Ninjas to the Land of Waves.

The situation was so good that the Third Mizukage wanted to see if such a good situation could be maintained. If so, he could increase his investment and achieve their war goals in one go.

Kirigakure, which had won the battle, was filled with joy, while Konoha, which had suffered a defeat, was not in a good mood.

Konoha Hospital.

In the VIP ward, Mito Kado En was lying on the bed with an apologetic look on his face.

Utane Koharu sat on the hospital bed next to Mito Kado En, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood by the window, puffing out smoke.

There was a strange silence in the entire ward.

"Yan actually lost, resulting in the deaths of nearly three hundred ninjas and injuries to more than five hundred ninjas..." Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned as he recalled the battle damage information.

This was beyond his expectations. He had originally thought that with Mito Kado En's abilities, even if he couldn't quickly destroy Kirigakure, he would definitely be able to gain the advantage steadily and then defeat Kirigakure step by step.

I didn't expect such bad news to come suddenly, and this is a battle on our home ground.

"Has it been too long since I last went to the battlefield? But it shouldn't be this serious." Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Mito Kado En lying on the hospital bed and felt confused.

If it had happened before, this level of casualties would actually not be a big deal. Only more than 300 ninjas were sacrificed, and not many of the 500 injured ninjas were seriously injured.

But Konoha is currently in a critical period. Not only is it fighting fiercely with Kumogakure, but there is also an Iwagakure that is eyeing them covetously.

A sudden defeat in this situation could trigger a chain reaction.

"Sorry to disappoint you." Mizuto Menyan took the initiative to break the silence.

If you lose, you have to admit your defeat and stand at attention. He is not the kind of person who would use thousands of excuses to justify himself.

"Yan, is there any powerful hidden warrior among the Kirigakure ninja troops this time?" Utane Koharu couldn't help but ask.

"No, it was my decision-making that was wrong, which ultimately led to defeat. In terms of overall strength, my troops should be stronger." Mizuto Menen shook his head and replied.

"This..." Utane Koharu didn't know what to say.

After all, Mizuto Menen said so himself, so there was no need for her to make excuses for him.

"Let Mu Yue go. He is the most suitable person in the village right now." Mizuto Menyan looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said.

Although there is Tsunade, one of the legendary three ninjas in Konoha, Tsunade's efficiency in killing enemies on the battlefield is far inferior to Mu Yue, and she is not a suitable choice.

And now Tsunade herself is rather reluctant to go to the battlefield.

"I thought so too." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.

Although I wanted to give Mu Yue more time to practice, plans could not keep up with changes.

If Mu Yue is not allowed to go, then the only option is to transfer Jiraiya back, or Sarutobi Hiruzen to go himself.

Bringing Jiraiya back would be like robbing Peter to pay Paul, which would easily lead to trouble in Iwagakure.

As Sarutobi Hiruzen is the Hokage, he cannot act rashly, so the only person he can do is Mu Yue.

After all, this mission is relatively safe since it is a domestic operation and the opponent is not too powerful.

If the opponent is of the level of the Third Tsuchikage or the Third Raikage, Sarutobi Hiruzen would choose to let Mu Yue stay in Konoha and go to the battlefield himself.

Facing a master of this level, the risk of something going wrong is quite high, and he cannot let Mu Yue, who has the opportunity to reach the level of the first generation, take the risk.

……

The country of earth, the village of Iwagakure.

"Rejected again, it seems to be the fundamental problem." Looking at the message sent by Huangtu, Ohnoki showed a regretful expression.

It is impossible to form a joint ninja force with the Shinobi Clan to intimidate Konoha in the Rain Country, unless Ohnoki defeats the ninja forces of the Rain Country first.

But this is meaningless, and it will only give you an extra opponent for no reason.

Just then, there was an urgent knock on the door.

"Enter."

The Iwagakure Anbu quickly walked into the office and said quickly, "Sandaime-sama, there is important war intelligence about Konoha!"

Ohnoki instantly became alert, picked up the information sent by the Anbu and began to read it quickly.

"The Kirigakure defeated the Konoha ninja troops led by Mito Kado En in the Land of Fire." Ohnoki was slightly surprised.

Defeating the Konoha Ninja Force in a non-Fire Country area, breaking through the Fire Country's defense line, and defeating the Konoha Ninja Force in the Fire Country. It is hard to say how valuable the first two things are, but the last one is definitely the most valuable.

The Kirigakure was not just an ordinary ninja unit that was defeated, but a ninja unit led by Mito Kado En, a high-ranking member of Konoha.

"Maybe Konoha is not as strong as I thought." Oonoki looked thoughtful.

As a troublemaker, it would be a shame not to get involved when the Fire Nation is so lively now.

"Notify the senior executives to go to the conference room." Oonoki ordered the Iwagakure Anbu.

He had the idea of ​​sending troops, but this was not something he could decide alone, he had to hold a meeting first.

When the latest information about the Fire Nation was placed in front of the Iwagakure top brass, they all showed expressions similar to Ōnoki's before.

"We have suffered a lot at the hands of Konoha since the war. We can't just let it go. I think we can take the opportunity to send troops." Iwagakure Elder Chongjing suggested.

"I think we can give it a try." Ohnoki stated directly.

Immediately afterwards, the squad leader of the Iwagakure jonin, Hui, also expressed his approval.

In the end, the high-level meeting unanimously passed the resolution to send ninja troops to Konoha.

As for the candidate for the commander of the ninja unit, after a period of discussion, it was decided that the captain of the Iwagakure Demolition Team, Reishi, would be the one to take the position.

The blame for the last defeat was mainly placed on the death of Yanku and Lao Zi who left the village. Lieshi returned to the village early to recuperate due to his injuries, so he was not affected much.

Of course, the main reason is that there are no other good candidates. Some are not qualified enough and some are not strong enough.
