The Avenger of the Uzumaki Clan
Chapter 429: Defeat and Choice
It can’t be said that they were defeated.
But it was almost a complete defeat.
The Mist Ninjas on the front line simply couldn’t withstand the counterattack of the Light Ninjas. Previously, due to the difference in numbers, the Mist Ninjas had to fight separately, and it was difficult for the Light Ninjas to fight against them. This was not just because there were not so many defensive forces, but more because the Mist Ninjas were too scattered and opened up too many battle groups, and it was difficult for the Light Ninjas to grasp the corresponding positions one by one.
By the time the Light Ninjas learned about the Mist Ninjas’ offensive routes and specific personnel composition, the other side had often completed the corresponding mission objectives and then retreated directly.
In this case.
Even if Shuiyue and Yugao were more capable of killing, they were unable to split up.
And except for the part of the team led by Shuiyue and Yugao personally, the remaining Light Ninjas could not be further divided. After all, the power of the new weapons was limited, and the chakra armor was not completely invulnerable. Even if it was difficult to blast through the ninjutsu for a while, in close combat, as long as they aimed at your head, they could still kill with one blow! ?
Menma wanted to develop a helmet that protects the head, but the technical difficulty is not so easy to overcome, and the cost of doing so is still too high.
Therefore, it is impossible for ordinary light ninjas to fight separately.
This led to the Mist Ninjas, although they suffered nearly four-digit casualties under the strong attack of Suigetsu and Yugao, they were still able to achieve certain results on the scene, but now after the arrival of the air combat unit, the situation is very different.
With the air support, the light ninjas have the confidence to fight separately.
In the sky, as long as there is a squadron of flying troops to support them, the light ninjas in the lower position dare to directly push back against the enemy who is several times their number.
From the moment the air combat unit joined the battle.
Often, you can see dozens of light ninjas chasing one or two hundred, or even more mist ninjas.
After all, the jonins are still a minority.
Not to mention the kind of jonins who can easily kill the enemies flying in the sky.
Even as powerful as Konoha, Iwagakure, and Kumogakure, it is impossible for them to casually bring out so many jonin, not to mention the Kirigakure, which has suffered continuously in recent years. In the Third Ninja World War more than ten years ago, Kirigakure was originally the defeated party, and countless Kirigakure, including several members of the Seven, died in the war. The Three-Tails was lost once, which was already considered to have damaged part of its vitality. Later, Yagura Karatachi, who was the Mizukage, was controlled by Obito, and a more bloody and cruel blood mist fight unfolded. The disappearance of countless Kirigakure, led by the three major ninja clans, such as the Snow Clan, the Hozuki Clan, and the Kaguya Clan, really hurt the vitality of Kirigakure.
Later, they had to experience the death of Yagura Karatachi, the loss of the Three-Tails again, and the defection of the Six-Tails Jinchūriki. After a few years, they finally recovered a little vitality.
Menma's blow to the head was to make Kirigakure fall to the bottom of the valley.
Under this tragic situation, the Hidden Mist Village only seemed to have a little foundation in terms of the number of ninjas. The top combat power in the true sense was really pitiful.
"Boom!"
Therefore, under the strong pressure of the air combat force of the Hidden Light Village.
The numerical advantage of the Hidden Mist Ninjas became a complete joke.
It took less than two or three days.
The Hidden Mist Ninjas who had been able to penetrate into the hinterland of the Grass Country and almost approached the western area of the Hidden Light Village were all driven out.
They were forced to retreat back to the area that their own ninja village could barely control.
The Hidden Mist Ninjas were unable to put pressure on the Hidden Light Ninjas, and their front-line camps were facing a huge crisis.
"Quick, immediately send the news here back to the rear."
The commanders of the Hidden Mist Ninjas on the front line, while organizing the Hidden Mist Ninjas to rearrange the front line, also immediately sent the battle report from the front line back to the 'Master' who had arrived in the Tea Country opposite the southern sea of the River Country.
In order to better command the front-line troops and to improve the morale of his own team, Obito specially arranged for the "Master" to lead the large army to the Tea Country, which is only about half a day away from the front line. For the war between the big ninja villages, these small countries can only passively accept and assist.
During this period of time.
The Tea Country can be said to have completely become a vassal state of the Hidden Mist Village. All resources that can be obtained nearby are provided by the Tea Country. Even if it is nominally negotiated purchase, everyone knows what the actual situation is.
The ninja villages of various countries will still have corresponding respect and courtesy when treating their own country or the daimyo and nobles of the same big country. As for other small countries?
It is already very good to give a little nominal respect.
Not to mention that Uchiha Obito is still in charge of the highest power of the Hidden Mist Village. Not to take it directly by force is already considered to be Obito leaving room.
And such a small country is often very sensible.
No matter which big country or ninja village, as long as a large army is stationed on their own territory, they will fully cooperate. They are fence-sitters, but it is not bad to save their lives.
The entire Tea Country.
In just a few days.
It became the front-line military station of the Hidden Mist Village.
This time, under the order of the "Master", the Hidden Mist Village really came out in full force, with a full 10,000 Mist Ninja Corps dispatched, leaving only a few hundred, less than a thousand garrison forces in the village.
The forces distributed in stages.
Entering the River Country from different routes, and then approaching the border troops of the Grass Country, it can be said that in the first ten days of the war, the Mist Village was extremely convinced of the orders of their own master, because everything was going according to plan.
The most important thing is the mobilization of troops from Konoha, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure, especially the almost obvious heavy troop concentration in Iwagakure, which made ordinary Mist Ninjas believe everything their master said.
This is not a war between them and the Hidden Light Village alone.
It is a joint stranglehold war with other ninja villages participating. Otherwise, why doesn't the Hidden Light Village go all out! ?
The two tailed beasts on the front line are very strong.
But what about the most important nine-tailed Jinchuriki - Uzumaki Menma?
Why not go out?
It should not be possible to go out!
This was the common understanding of almost all the Mist Ninjas before.
Until the air combat force of the Hidden Light Village was dispatched.
The battlefield situation turned around in less than two days.
Almost at the moment when the front-line Mist Ninjas were forced to retreat and the front-line camps were directly broken.
Obito, who received the news in the back position, had an ugly look on his face
"Master Yuanshi, our front-line troops have all been defeated, and the air force is too weak. Hyacinthus on the front line asked, what should we do next?"
The Tea Country is on a towering peak next to the coast.
The rear central camp of the Hidden Mist Village is built here.
In the exclusive tent of the Master Yuanshi.
A brown-haired middle-aged man with a cross scar on his forehead looked at the "Master Yuanshi" in the upper position with a solemn look, and reported in a slightly hurried tone.
"Could it be the legacy of the Sky Country? This is really unexpected. In addition to that batch of air combat troops, did the Hidden Light Village dispatch any other forces? Especially that Uzumaki Menma, is there any trace of him appearing on the battlefield?"
If you want to act, you have to do it in full.
Since you are already playing the role of someone else's supreme leader.
Under Obito's command, the White Zetsu pretending to be a master must show his disguise 100%.
A master must be a master.
All aspects must be taken into consideration.
Although the Mist Ninja is very weak now.
But this force is still useful, and they cannot really collapse.
"There is no clear information yet."
The Mist Ninja below paused slightly, then shook his head and said.
"That's fine, it seems that our allies are still putting pressure on us. As long as Uzumaki Menma doesn't come to the front line, there will be no big problems. I have arranged a group of reinforcements to arrive. Tell Hyacinth and others on the front line that they don't need to really hold on. As long as they can pull the front line apart and contain the other side, it will be fine. If time is on our side, we don't need to rush. Do you understand?"
The 'Master' said to the Mist Ninja with a scar on his forehead with a calm face.
A steady voice.
And that clear answer.
All of these have greatly calmed down the slightly worried mood of the Mist Ninja.
It seems that the Master has already made plans.
Then he and others really don't need to worry about anything. At this moment, the Mist Ninja also nodded with a relaxed look and said, "Yes, Master, I know what to do. I will go and inform Hyacinth and the others."
After that, after bowing to the Master, he left quickly.
After the footsteps of the Mist Ninja went away.
In the left corner of this big tent.
"Buzz!"
Obito's figure also appeared.
The single exposed Sharingan was also full of gloomy color. Such a development really exceeded Obito's expectations.
Obito really didn't expect that the war had been going on for more than half a month, and the other ninja villages were still just watching the war! ?
This was completely different from what Obito had expected before.
Originally in his opinion,
As long as he leads the tens of thousands of Mist Ninjas in the Hidden Mist Village to charge forward, the other ninja villages will definitely not be able to hold back. There will definitely be one or two ninja villages that will attack together! ?
Once such a situation is formed, no matter what the final result is.
The power of these ninja villages will definitely be weakened or even severely damaged.
By the beginning of next year, their Akatsuki organization will have made the final series of preparations and can directly start the tailed beast capture plan.
But the current situation is completely different from what Obito expected.
If it continues to drag on and the major ninja villages still do not participate in the war, the Hidden Mist Village will be completely destroyed, and before that, if the "Master" cannot issue a more correct order, the Mist Ninjas will definitely "rebel" in advance.
Don't talk about prestige or status.
That is based on general circumstances.
If it is a situation of certain death, except for a small number of diehards, who would be willing to really follow! ?
Isn't that mentally ill! ?
"It seems that your plan has failed. Konoha, Iwagakure, and Kumogakure have not participated in the war. In this case, Hikari Village and Uzumaki Menma will not be able to feel the real pressure."
On one side, the figure of Black Zetsu also appeared.
When the Mist Ninja Army was dispatched before.
Black Zetsu followed Obito's instructions and went to the Hidden Rain Village to inform Nagato of Obito's plan, so that Nagato could be ready to launch the plan at any time.
After all, sometimes plans can't keep up with changes.
If the Ninja Villages from all over the world were fighting to the death in just a few months, the perfect opportunity would have appeared in advance.
Then there is no need to endure it until next year.
However, the best situation has not occurred, and now it is very likely that the worst situation will unfold.
Of course, even the worst-case scenario.
For Obito, and for the entire Eye of the Moon plan, there will be no loss. At most, it will still be the same as the original plan, right?
"Hmph, it doesn't matter even if you fail. After all, it's just an additional option. However, it's not time to admit defeat yet."
Obito said with a cold snort.
"What? Do you have any other plans? Obito?"
Hei Jue was slightly startled and said with a hint of curiosity.
"That's natural. The reason why other ninja villages don't take action is because they care about each other and don't think the chance is big enough. Then I'll add fire to the fire. As long as we can really break through the defense line of light ninja here and force Uzumaki Menma to fight. If so, I don't believe that the other ninja villages can hold back, and immediately pass my request to Nagato, let the Kakuto team and the Scorpion team come here, even if they kill all the three-tailed and six-tailed jinchūriki, I will I don’t believe that Uzumaki Menma will still be able to bear it when the time comes!”
Obito smiled coldly and said with a sinister look in his eyes.
"Also, Zetsu, call me Madara-sama!"
Obito turned his head and looked at Black Zetsu with a cold gaze.
"So that's it, haha, yes, I understand, Madara-sama~~"
Hei Jue was stunned at first, and then reacted.
What is the nature of the Akatsuki organization?
It's a mercenary organization.
At least this is how the various countries in the ninja world view it. The village that uses the Akatsuki organization the most is the Iwagakure Village. There are many things that may ruin the reputation of the Iwanin, or are very risky and require strong ninjas to execute them. The Third Tsuchikage basically spent money to complete the tasks.
In the end, the wool comes from the sheep anyway.
Why bother asking for trouble?
This time.
Obito is obviously a guest star as a senior member of Kirigakure Village. In order to capture the tailed beasts in his own ninja village, he spent money to hire the Akatsuki organization.
Is it reasonable?
Very reasonable! ! !
Moreover, the strength of the members of the Akatsuki organization is basically comparable to that of tailed beasts.
Each one has at least the strength of an ordinary shadow level.
Even the weakest Hidan.
Relying on the characteristics of the immortal body, it is enough to be used as a shadow-level combat force as long as the information is not leaked.
In the original work, Angle and Hidan cooperated to directly take down the second-tailed Jinchuuriki, Yukito, without any particular effort.
Not to mention Scorpion and Deidara.
Both of them have the ability to kill tailed beasts alone.
The battle with Gaara may not really explain anything, but the battle with Deidara single-handedly brushing the three tails is the best evidence.
There are these two groups of members.
Yu Gao and Suigetsu! ?
This is something that can be easily taken down.
