The enemy was in chaos, and the enemy was in chaos.

Orochimaru announced the order to retreat.

The Konoha ninjas fighting in Yuyin Village were fighting and retreating, all the way to the entrance of Yuyin Village.

Orochimaru glanced at the remaining Konoha ninjas and frowned slightly.

Before they came, there were probably less than a hundred people, about ninety.

Now, with a glance, including the injured ninjas, there are only a maximum of forty people left.

Although this surprise attack on Yuyin Village is about to succeed, the price they paid is also quite heavy.

This action is only one step away from success, that is, the neutrality of Kuroiwa Tatsuji.

Jiraiya, who was covered in blood, walked to Orochimaru and asked, "Orochimaru, what about that old man? Did he agree?"

"I don't know, but no matter what, we should retreat. We can't fight any longer."

Jiraiya nodded seriously. He really couldn't fight any longer.

Orochimaru believed that Kuroiwa Tatsuji would definitely agree to his proposal.

If he didn't agree, then Yuyin Village would no longer need to exist.

Orochimaru announced, "Wait here for five minutes, stay here, and wait for the rest of the companions to join us. After five minutes, no matter what, we will retreat!"

Time was passing by.

The ninjas stationed here, including Orochimaru and Jiraiya, all released ninjutsu to Yuyin Village to prevent the approach of the Cloud Ninja and the Tang Ninja.

The most active person here is Namikaze Minato.

Namikaze Minato relied on his mobility to go back and forth continuously, and each time he went back and forth, he could rescue a Konoha ninja.

Namikaze Minato was too tired now.

But he was still holding on, thinking that he could save as many people as possible.

Just when Namikaze Minato was about to go in to save people again, Jiraiya stopped him.

"Okay, Minato, you've done your best. Don't go anymore. We're going to retreat soon. You've reached your limit."

Namikaze Minato pleaded, "Teacher Jiraiya, there's still a little time. Let me go again."

Jiraiya shook his head, "You can't go anymore. Your speed has slowed down a lot. Haven't you noticed? If you go again, you'll be in danger, and this little time is not enough for you to save another person. Orochimaru said five minutes is five minutes, and he will never stay for you for one more second.

Besides, it's already now. Those who should have withdrawn have already withdrawn. Those who haven't withdrawn..."

Jiraiya didn't continue talking, but the meaning was also very clear. It's more dangerous than good.

Namikaze Minato lowered his head slightly and stopped talking.

The time was up, and Orochimaru immediately said: "Retreat now, place detonating tags on the way! Go!"

The Konoha ninjas gathered here retreated together.

The retreat process was very smooth, and there was almost no obstruction from the Cloud Ninjas.

When they returned to the base, it was almost noon.

Chiba, who was seriously overdrawn, had returned to his tent to rest.

Others also healed their wounds and rested.

Orochimaru and Jiraiya did not rest either, because it was a busy time.

Orochimaru asked, "Jiraiya, have you finished counting? How many ninjas do we have?"

Jiraiya reported, "There are only 43 ninjas left, and only 32 ninjas can fight in the short term."

Orochimaru looked serious, "We need to ask Konoha for help now, and at least 60 ninjas will be needed, so that we can hold the front after advancing."

Jiraiya frowned and said, "Orochimaru, do you want to advance the front right away? Isn't it too hasty? Should we wait for support to arrive before advancing?"

Orochimaru looked at the sand table and said without raising his head, "The matter of advancing the front must be carried out as soon as possible, otherwise, If they react, our plan to advance the front will be hindered, and this surprise attack on Yuyin Village will become meaningless, and the sacrificed ninjas will be sacrificed in vain.

Jiraiya sighed and said, "I understand. I will follow up on this matter immediately. So how far should the front be pushed?"

Orochimaru picked up the flag of Konoha in the sand table and placed it on one of the positions in the sand table: "At least ten kilometers!"

Jiraiya was surprised and said, "So far? Can we defend it?"

Orochimaru said very calmly, "With so few people, of course we can't defend it. Because we can't defend it, we have to push the front line.

"

Jiraiya was very confused: "Why do we push the front line further when we know we can't hold it?"

Orochimaru explained: "It's the same sentence. We need to have room. The ninjas supported by Konoha will not be able to reach the Hidden Tang Village in one or two days. If we push the front line very conservatively for a distance, if the Cloud Ninja attacks us, we can only retreat here again in the end.

But if we push the front line to a farther position at the beginning, fight and retreat, and wait for the arrival of Konoha support, then we can hold the front line at the current position."

Jiraiya understood Orochimaru's explanation and sighed: "Orochimaru, your brain is really good. If you were the one who came to the Land of Hot Springs, you might not be in the current situation. "

Orochimaru said bluntly: "It's not maybe, it's a certainty, Jiraiya, you are too conservative. War is like two beasts biting each other. As long as one side shows weakness, the other side will definitely bite you tightly until death."

Jiraiya sat on the chair and said: "I don't want to be so conservative, but if I were to attack recklessly like you, it would be too difficult for me. By the way, how is the situation on other fronts in Konoha?"

Orochimaru replied: "The fronts of Rock Ninja and Sand Ninja are okay. What's a bit troublesome now is that the Hidden Mist Village may also enter the field. In addition, the Cloud Ninja in the Land of Hot Springs is too troublesome at present, so the teacher sent me to the Land of Hot Springs for support."

Jiraiya sighed and said: "It has only been a few years since the Second Ninja World War, and I didn't expect that there would be another war. Wouldn't it be good for everyone to live peacefully together in the Ninja World?"

Orochimaru glanced at Jiraiya with his snake eyes: "Jiraiya, you are still so naive. "

Jiraiya smiled and said: "Sometimes it's okay to be a little naive. It's too tiring to live as clearly as you do. By the way, how is your disciple? In addition to the injured me and Nawaki you carried on your back during World War II, it seems that you only carried Chiyu on your back."

Hearing Nawaki's name, Orochimaru's pupils shrank, and then he calmly replied: "Chiyu suffered a minor injury and his body was overdrawn, but it's nothing serious. "
