Escape From Konoha

The kingdom of ghosts, the eastern border fortress.

The artillery fire swept across the entire battlefield, and the fortress that was invaded by Iwagakure was now reduced to ruins under the bombardment of the mechanized troops of the ghost country.

Countless corpses, regardless of enemy or friend, fell on the ground where the snow water gradually melted.

The hard armored vehicle was also ravaged under the attack of ninja ninjutsu, turned into steel fragments, and scattered to every corner of the battlefield.

At this moment, there were still bursts of shrieking sounds caused by missiles piercing the atmosphere in the sky, and then bombarded the ground, making a deafening bang.

Flying ninjas flew across the air like angels of death descending lightly, and then circled at an astonishingly high speed, ravaging the land all the time.

The fierce wind whipped up flames and howled, and the dark clouds in the sky appeared in a bottomless vortex, as if to swallow the entire earth.

Risking death, the ninjas charged towards the enemy while roaring, and then they were smashed into a sieve in the hail of bullets, and life suddenly stopped beating.

Luke near the fort collapsed section by section due to the battle of the ninjas.

Potholes were quickly formed under the ninjutsu of Yanyin Ninja, cutting the battlefield into hundreds of areas, almost sinking the entire plain.

Ayane charged alone at the forefront of the battlefield. Around her, apart from the Iwagakure ninja, the only ones on her side were herself and the shadow dancer who lived in the shadow. Besides, there was no so-called assistance by her side.

Even so, she did not find such behavior reckless.

After all, in the entire kingdom of ghosts, there are too few ninjas who can keep up with her actions and cooperate with her.

And her way of interspersed with the battlefield is completely random, doing whatever she wants.

She was certain that if she led an elite troop into the deepest part of the enemy's formation, except for herself, the rest of the team would definitely be surrounded by countless enemies, causing all of them to die.

Rather than doing this, it would be better to make sure that she charged alone from the very beginning, so that she could fight without any scruples and completely disrupt the enemy's formation.

Thinking of this, Ayane couldn't help but think of the Uchiha woman with the teapot lid. If it was her, harvesting cannon fodder on the battlefield would be much more convenient and quicker than herself.

There was an association in my mind, but in reality, Ayane's skill did not hesitate because of this, and she was as light and agile as ever.

Her mission is to destroy the formation of the Iwagakure ninjas and completely suppress their morale on the battlefield.

The task of killing enemies along the way is mainly given to the shadow dancer.

The shadow dancer's shadow blade, which cannot be defended by ordinary ninjutsu, coupled with her super speed, is like a fish in water on the battlefield. Every time she passes by, she will leave a body on the ground.

As a result, Yan Yin's team, which was being targeted by Ayane, bloomed tirelessly on the battlefield like blood lotus flowers, beautiful and enchanting.

"Dust Escape·Original Realm—"

The Third Tsuchikage Onogi, who was in the sky, was about to use his special skills and aimed at Ayane's back for a sneak attack.

A sharp wind blade blows.

Onoki flew away without thinking, avoiding the attack of the wind blade.

A girl in a red and white priestess costume appeared opposite Onogi, suspended in the air in the same suspended posture, with her hands open, wisps of breeze gathered in her palms, forming a nimble small tornado, staring blankly. Onoki.

"hateful!"

Onogi felt an incomparable headache for this flying priestess wearing a priestess costume.

Because this flying witch who belongs to the enemy camp does nothing on the battlefield, just staring at him alone.

Especially when he was casting Dust Dungeon, he would always release the wind blade just right, interrupting his movement of casting spells.

If he was twenty years younger... Onogi felt the sadness of being an old man.

He was older than Konoha's dead third Hokage, he was seventy-six years old, and he should have retired long ago.

If it were me twenty years ago, the speed of casting dust escape would not be so slow.

With the increase of age, his physical strength and reaction ability began to decline, and even the expansion of Chen Dun's domain became gapped.

Although Onoki was confident in defeating the flying witch, the opponent did not fight him head-on at all. He used his own advantages to distance himself from him, and in a non-printed way, immediately released the wind blade to interrupt his attack from a distance.

This made Onoki feel helpless.

This also led to his idea of ​​sneak attacking the rear of the ghost country, which could not be effectively implemented.

In addition to destroying those seemingly cumbersome armored vehicles, if it is implemented on specific ninjas, things will become extremely cumbersome.

"Master Tukage, news from Konoha!"

There was a rushing voice from the radio hanging in the ear.

"explain!"

For some reason, Onogi had a bad premonition in his heart.

"The 2,000 support troops that Konoha dispatched from the Kuma Kingdom were suddenly blocked by Uchiha Ruri. Forty percent of the ninjas died on the spot, and the rest were wounded and fled! According to Konoha Jonin squad leader's instructions, this is a trap for our alliance army. We, Yanyin, please stop the attack immediately, and evacuate from the territory of the ghost country as soon as possible to reduce losses!"

"!?"

Uchiha Ruri! ?

Onoki's face was so shocked that it was numb, and he was at a loss.

Wasn't she stationed in the western waters of the Demon Country, held back by Kirigakure's main force?

How could it be possible to appear on the battlefield of the Bear Country and block Konoha's support troops?

Just when he was in a daze, black dots appeared at the end of the wilderness in the distance.

With the roar of steel rolling, hundreds of brand-new armored vehicles rolled forward on the ground ahead.

Following this torrent of black steel are heavily armed ninja troops.

Leading the way were a dozen jounin wearing Chakra armor, galloping forward at a faster speed, opening the way for the steel troops behind.

Seeing this sudden torrent of steel, Onogi's pupils widened, and he realized something instantly, and his body trembled violently.

"Kumakushi—!?"

At this time, it is too late to retreat. The Iwagakure ninjas here have completely fought with the ninjas of the Ghost Kingdom. If they retreat at this time, the thousands of Iwagakures gathered here will definitely be caught up, causing more than half of the casualties.

But stay and fight on... Ohnoki's hands and feet start to get cold.

Yakura, you bastard! !

◎

In Konoha's meeting room, there was silence.

Whether it is Tsunade, the advisors, or the newcomers to the core power circle, they are all shocked by the battle report sent back from the front.

The 2,000 ninja troops used to support Jiraiya encountered Uchiha Ruri in the territory of Bird Country, and most of them were killed or injured.

Iwagakushi invested 5,000 ninjas on the frontal battlefield in the eastern part of the Oni Land, led by the third generation of Tsuchikage Onogi himself. It was originally a confident siege battle, but in the end because of the sudden support from the Oni Land, Iwagakushi was also involved in the battle. The frontal battlefield was quickly defeated and fled back to the land of earth.

Of the 5,000 ninjas thrown in, more than 3,000 died, and finally, under the protection of Onoki, they withdrew to the Land of Earth with less than 2,000 remnants.

However, the matter is not over yet. Hyuga Ayane, who defeated the main force of Iwagakure, left behind the large army of the Oni Land, and marched towards the Land of Earth alone. In less than an hour, he defeated the Iwa Ninja border troops of the Land of Earth , the western border of the Land of Earth fell into chaos.

In addition, Hyuga Ayane continued to go deep into the hinterland of the land of land alone, and Iwagakushi's reconnaissance team could not track her whereabouts. When she found out, Ayane Hyuga had already appeared in the northern part of the land of land, raiding and stationed in the land of land Frontier Ninja Force in the North.

The other party seemed to regard the land of earth as his back garden, and appeared and disappeared in the land of earth, making Yan Yin and the daimyo mansion of the land of earth panic.

Is it a risk or a luxury to throw a five-kage-level ninja directly into the enemy's base camp alone? But no matter which one it is, it means that the enemy of the ghost country is beyond imagination.

The good news is that everyone's understanding of the Kingdom of Ghosts is no longer limited to the tip of the iceberg. This made the country of ghosts, an iceberg that mostly sank under the sea, finally surfaced.

The bad news is that the sacrifices made by the villages are simply too great.

Especially Konoha and Rock Hidden.

Since the beginning of the war, the accumulated losses of the two villages alone have exceeded 7,000 ninjas.

Although the kingdom of ghosts also paid a price for this, the number of casualties of the other party will definitely not be as tragic as Konoha and Yanyin, which is within the acceptable range.

"I didn't expect Kirigakure to pass false information to his comrades for the so-called face, which caused us Konoha and Yanyin to suffer heavy losses. We must unite for this matter, and let Kirigakure give an explanation!"

Mito Menyan tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, but from his resolute tone, he could still hear that his anger was burning.

Originally, they were very excited and encouraged when they learned about Kirigakure's heroic achievements in the western waters of the Oni Nation, such as defeating the vanguard of the Oni Nation, the four generations of Mizukage's great power, and the successful containment of Uchiha Ruri. Yes, even the enthusiasm for fighting has become extremely high.

But the fact is that the Wuyin reconnaissance force and the third vanguard force were wiped out without any news.

Even Kirigakure didn't know if it was Uchiha Ruri himself who was stationed in the western sea area of ​​the Oni Nation, so he directly fabricated the battle report of the Fourth Mizukage and his battle, and notified it to the comrades in the alliance army, and told the west battlefield that everything was going well. The Allied armies just need to attack with peace of mind. But our own side made a gesture of pretending to attack, stood still and watched from the sidelines.

This made the high-ranking allied forces who questioned and learned the truth afterwards almost vomit blood three liters of anger.

This is also the root cause of Konoha and Yanyin's defeat in the battle.

A main force that was originally used by the Oni Nation to guard against Kirigakure, successfully moved from the west when it was learned that Kirigakure did not intend to attack the western sea area of ​​the Oni Nation, and the main force merged with Hinata Ayane's troops and hit the rock Yin was caught off guard, resulting in the death of more than 3,000 people on the frontal battlefield.

Uchiha Ruri appeared in the Bird Country and successfully blocked Konoha's support troops, making the situation facing Jiraiya's troops even worse.

All the battle reports are developing in a direction that is unfavorable for the alliance army.

"Responsible for Kirigakure, although this matter is important, the most urgent task is how to rescue Jiraiya and the Konoha ninja stationed there from the territory of the bear country."

Tsunade was equally angry about Kirigard's false information, but she understood that if she blamed Kirigard now, it would not change the fact that the front line was defeated.

Although Yanyin suffered heavy losses, their main personnel and troops were safely evacuated from the battlefield.

However, Konoha not only suffered the loss of personnel, but also an army of 3,000 to 4,000 people is being imprisoned in the east of the Bear Kingdom by the Demon Kingdom, unable to advance or retreat.

Attacking, the country of ghosts has already deployed its troops around, and has the advantage of vision and intelligence. A frontal attack will only make the Konoha troops there lose faster.

And to retreat... The Kingdom of Ghosts has also made arrangements. If they want to break through, the final result will only be the annihilation of the entire army.

This is the scary thing about the kingdom of ghosts. They plan to confine Jiraiya's troops, use them as bait, and constantly lure Konoha to support them, and then intercept Konoha's support troops halfway to consume Konoha's vitality as much as possible.

"Among Jiraiya's troops, there are nearly a thousand wounded, and hundreds of them are seriously injured. Before they are cured, it is difficult to move them. They can only be treated on the spot... It is impossible to evacuate them all."

Turning to bed Xiaochun told an extremely cruel fact.

This is exactly the point of drag.

If more than 3,000 ninjas want to evacuate the Bear Country, although it is still difficult, it is not impossible.

But among the more than 3,000 people, more than 1,000 are wounded, and the battle to break out will become extremely difficult.

Unless the more than a thousand wounded are directly abandoned, it is simply unrealistic to evacuate all the staff.

"Not only that, but because of Kirigakure's untrustworthiness, while causing a crisis of trust within the Alliance Army, it also caused the difficulty of Konoha's support to the frontline to increase exponentially."

Mitomon sighed.

Turning to bed Xiaochun also frowned, what he thought was a good situation, after the trust crisis in Kirigakure, now it seems that he is just deceiving himself.

After a long time, the two advisors set their sights on Tsunade, hoping that as Hokage's Tsunade, he could come up with an idea.

In response to the questioning eyes of the two advisors, Tsunade sighed.

"...From the very beginning, I did not advocate going to war with the ghost country. The goals and demands of each country are completely different. When the goals cannot be unified, once there is a crisis of trust, it is not far from disintegration. Hidden fog is just a fuse Suo, the reason for the real failure is that it is difficult for the alliance army to truly unite, and it is because we do not have a correct understanding of the military strength and organizational strength of the ghost country, and the penetration of the Great Ninja Village."

In Tsunade's view, it is a very risky behavior to fight against an unknown enemy without knowing anything.

The only advantage of the Union Army is the large number of people.

But a large number of people is sometimes a disadvantage, because these forces cannot be unified, and they cannot be united. Each country and village has its own strategic purpose. Although they are under the banner of the Alliance Army, the ninjas of each village have never merged into one place. fighting.

This is because once the ninjas are merged, before the war with the ghost country, their own people may start a civil war first because of past grievances.

Although she expected that sooner or later there would be various estrangements and disputes within the Alliance Army because of the opacity of intelligence, she did not expect that such a crisis would come so soon.

Thinking of Yagura's claim at the earliest meeting that he wanted to make the Oni no Kuni, which interfered in the internal affairs of the Water Land, look good, and thinking of Kirigakure's faltering and falsifying of information for the sake of face, Tsunade was speechless for a while. .

Even with the entire Kirigakure, Tsunade felt that he couldn't look directly at it.

"The matter has come to this point, it is too late to ask who is to be held accountable, let's find a way to solve the current difficulties."

Mitomon said.

"Wait and see."

Tsunade thought for a moment, then said.

"wait?"

"The actions of the ghost country are a bit weird. Judging from their series of layouts, it seems that we have known for a long time that our four ninja villages will form an alliance, so we set up such a situation in advance. As the fuse of the crisis of trust, Kirigakure, I am afraid It's not accidental. Because Uchiha Ruri and the main force defending the sea area west of Oni no Kuni, the speed of support is unbelievable, as if they had been rehearsed in advance."

"you mean…"

Mitomonyan and Zhuanju Xiaoharu were startled, and seemed to realize that something was wrong.

Thinking about it carefully, the series of deployments of the Kingdom of Ghosts has been ridiculously fast from the very beginning, and every time it can predict the enemy's opportunity first, and make the most correct judgment.

"The degree to which Kirigakure has been infiltrated is probably not just as simple as a few jounin, and there may be elders who live in the top ranks. Yagura used to be a coup d'état in the past. It is said that a considerable number of people in Kirigakure Village have treated him so far. The legitimacy of the

"Is this impossible? Colluding with foreign enemies because of this kind of thing?"

Mitomen Yan and Zhuannian Xiaochun couldn't believe it.

"Nothing is impossible. After Orochimaru defected to Konoha, didn't that guy Danzo also work closely with the other party? I think the two of you must have heard about this matter."

Tsunade sneered.

This kind of information can be known after a little investigation, but the content of the transaction between the two parties cannot be determined.

Obviously, the high-level officials of the village will not make this kind of news public, and will only warn Danzo behind his back.

The two consultants looked at each other and remained silent.

"From now on, I will let people pay close attention to the actions of the ghost country, otherwise I will rashly bring people to support, and I will just die again. Before I know the real purpose of the ghost country, I can't act rashly."

"The thing about the Alliance Army..."

Mitomon Yan and Zhuanju Xiaochun seem to be unwilling to do so.

Tsunade walked to the window and stopped, but did not respond to the consultant's question. Her non-response had already explained her attitude.

"Brother Xie, do you still have Bingliang Pills and water?"

Didara felt dizzy in his head, and his face became thinner.

Even though the burns on his hands were bandaged by the scorpion, they were still getting worse.

Especially in the case of lack of water and food, the weakness of the body is getting worse day by day.

Although as a ninja, he can do things that ordinary people can't, but he is still a body of flesh and blood, and needs water and food as energy for life.

In the dim cave, Didara leaned his back against the wall and began to moan weakly.

"No, no more."

Xie shook the kettle, the water in it had been drunk, and replied calmly.

There were no military food pills in the ninja bag, and they were all eaten.

The time to the limit is faster than expected.

Because it's not just Deidara who needs water and food. Similarly, the one-tailed Jinchuriki-Gaara, who is placed here, also needs to consume water and food.

In order to ensure that Jinchuriki survived before taking out the tailed beast, it was a matter of course to share half of the water and food.

Scorpion's energy remains absolutely abundant. As a half-man, half-doll, his body is not as inconvenient as a human being, and needs water and food to survive.

"Really, I didn't expect that as an artist, I would be forced by realistic reasons one day... um."

Didara made a very cold joke.

But neither he nor Scorpion laughed at the joke.

"After all, the human body is very inconvenient. Do you want me to turn you into a puppet? If you are lucky, you might be able to retain your human consciousness and your secret techniques."

Xie came over and asked with the posture of a red-haired boy.

"Forget it, I'm still very satisfied with my current body. The doll will neither hurt nor cry, Brother Scorpion, don't you think this posture is boring? Yes."

Didara asked curiously.

"Human beings are too fragile physically and psychologically, and are easily entangled by common things such as love, family affection, and friendship. I want to become a existence beyond human beings and abandon all human weaknesses. In this eternal life, I don't have to wait Others will also not let others wait."

"If this is the case, eternal life, it is too lonely."

"..."

For this question, Scorpion did not answer, but said:

"You've talked too much nonsense today, Deidara."

"Because I'm reaching my limit, and so is this Jinjuriki. Hmm."

Deidara glanced at the unconscious Gaara, who was overwhelmed by the medicine used by the scorpion and has not recovered yet.

"..."

Scorpion stared at Didala with emotionless pupils, and continued to ask the same question as before:

"So... what's your answer? Do you want to be my puppet?"

"If I don't agree, will Big Brother Scorpion do anything to me?"

Didara asked with a smile.

As the village's rebels, people like them, in the eyes of others, have long since died.

Moreover, Didara is also ready to die at any time.

Although it is a pity that he has not yet spread his art to the whole world and let more people appreciate his art, but the cruel reality now makes him have to wake up—he is at the end of his rope~www.readwn.com~Take yourself This cumbersome scorpion will never escape Sha Yin's pursuit.

Scorpion didn't respond, and there was no slight fluctuation in his eyes, as if the person in front of him was just an ordinary passer-by in eternal life to him.

It is no different from the flowers, plants and gravel on the roadside.

From the moment he became a puppet, he decided to abandon all the weaknesses of human nature.

"Aren't you going to do it? If that's the case, then hurry up and get out of here with Renzhuli, and I'll help you end it. It seems that the title of artist can only be inherited by you, Brother Scorpion."

After finishing speaking, Didara stood up from the ground with great effort, panting violently, and then forced a smile from his dirty face.

"It seems to be a good art to let a five shadows be buried with me. Yes."
