Naruto: Konoha Uzumaki Shirataki

Chapter 62 Konoha’s counterattack again

"On the surface, the move of Amegakure is simply because other fronts are tight, so it is necessary to urgently call back the troops." Nara Shikara's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "But currently Amegakure has joined forces with Sunagakure, and the only opponent he faces is Iwagakure. With us Konoha."

"The intelligence obtained recently shows that Iwagakure has not made any major moves against Amegakure recently, so Amegakure's retreat seems a bit abnormal. Hanzo is cunning and treacherous, and he should not do such meaningless actions. But the current information is too little to determine its true purpose.”

Mito Kadoyan listened quietly to Nara Shikara's analysis without interrupting in the middle. Unexpectedly, the other party stopped here. Mito Kadoen looked at Nara Shikara in surprise and asked his doubts, "Why did you stop talking all of a sudden? What is your guess?"

Nara Shikara took a deep breath, and his face looked a little ugly. "The old man created a maze to lure the enemy deep, avoid the real situation and turn to the weak, make false claims in the east and attack in the west... There are too many possibilities. Hanzo is not an unwise person. How will he move in the next round? Sorry, I can’t judge for sure.”

"Sorry, Men Yan." Nara Shikara lowered his head slightly, his tone seemed a little ashamed.

"It's okay, sit down." Mito Kadoyan smiled helplessly, but he didn't feel disappointed at all. From Mito Kaden's point of view, regardless of their purpose, the losses caused by the sudden retreat of the rain ninjas were real.

What's more, Konoha managed to get so much supplies with almost no losses this morning, and the benefits of this harvest are also real. Therefore, Mito Kadoyan did not panic at all, and the topic quickly moved to the next link. "The large-scale retreat of the rain ninja is a fact, but we can't let them go so easily." Everyone looked stern, knowing that the drama was coming. .

"Tsunade, Jiraiya, Orochimaru!" Mito Kadoyan's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he began to issue orders, "Order the three of you to lead your respective subordinates to form an elite team, and select 200 ninjas who are good at speed to intercept them as quickly as possible. Evacuate Yu Ren's large forces, and the battle will focus on delay and annihilation as a supplement. "

"Akimichi Kaifeng, Uchiha Yamai, and Hinata Shoyo! I order the three of you to select 500 ninjas from your respective clans, quickly move across the battlefield, and try to advance the front line at least 50 kilometers. Don't stop unless you encounter significant resistance."

"After reaching the target distance, if you still have some strength left, you must quickly turn back and support Orochimaru."

"Nara Shikara and I, as well as all the remaining Jonin, set off from the camp with 1,000 people and marched towards the hinterland of the Land of Rain. They gradually advanced on multiple fronts and conducted a comprehensive sweep of the battlefield, making sure not to let go of any Rain Ninja. ”

"As for Uzumaki, uh, this Hokage is directly under the ANBU." Mito Kadoyan turned his head and looked at Shirataki with a questioning look. "Please, while you are walking around the battlefield to perform your mission, try to keep an eye out for Sansho Hanzo. If Hanzo has really shown up, please go up and restrain him."

Mito Katoyan's tactical arrangements are simple and clear. Although there is no complicated strategic deployment, it can be seen that his command skills are quite good. It's just... The reason why the rain ninja retreated is still unknown. There is a serious lack of intelligence. So they started such a large-scale attack. Are they really not afraid of Hanzo's conspiracy?

Shirataki glanced at Mito Kabuto in surprise. Shirataki didn't think much of the other party's arrangements and didn't bother to comment. He still hasn't forgotten the purpose of coming here.

"I have no problem." Shirataki first responded to the order, and then reminded, "But my perception range cannot take care of such a large battlefield. If Hanzo really shows up somewhere, I may not be able to provide timely support."

"I've been prepared for this." Mito Monobu's expression didn't change, he just made some gestures with his eyes, and soon one of the people below stood up and placed a huge package on the table.

Shirataki watched curiously as the man unwrapped the package. Suddenly, hundreds of kunai wrapped in small cloth hanging from rings came into view. There was nothing special about these kunai. The main thing that attracted Shirataki's attention was the small cloth bags: they were only as big as an adult's fist, and each bag had a thin strip about ten centimeters long extending from the inside to the outside. Wire.

"Is this a lead?" Shirataki observed the material of these thin wires for a moment and quickly came to a conclusion.

"Your Excellency, you actually know this?" This time it was Mito Kadoyan's turn to be surprised. He looked at Shirataki a little strangely, "Then you should understand what I mean, right?"

‘I didn’t expect that humans in this world don’t know anything about gunpowder. ’ Bai Taki was indeed a little surprised, but that was all.

Shirataki secretly screamed something bad, and quickly pretended to be speechless and glanced at Mito Kadoyan, "Are you going to use it to send signals? Isn't this the thing used to set off fireworks?"

"That's right!" Mito Kabuto nodded and said in a deep voice, "The strategic value of these fireworks set off during holidays has actually been underestimated by many people."

"In my opinion, as long as you match the fireworks with different colors and take advantage of the height when they are set off, you can transmit information over long distances and command the ninja army."

"After all, there are very few ninjas and psychic beasts that can fly in the ninja world, so this method of information exchange is not easy to be intercepted."

"Of course, this method also has its drawbacks. To put it simply, the enemy can also see it. In order to prevent it from being deciphered by the enemy if it is used too much, this method will not be used unless it is an emergency or when we have a huge advantage."

Bai Tiao was silent for a long time, and then asked, "It's amazing. Who came up with this method?"

Mito Kadoyan smiled slightly and said modestly: "I came up with it, it's just a small trick, don't worry about it."

This time, it was Shirataki's turn to stare at Mito Kadoyan carefully for a long time. If it weren't for the calm look on his face, Shirataki would have doubted whether this guy was also a time traveler?

The emergence of signal flares and the tactical use of them really surprised Shirataki. It seems that the power of ninjas does not lie solely in strength.

At this moment, Shirataki had no choice but to take a high look at Mito Kaden, the inventor, "Sure enough, no one who can become a high-ranking member of Konoha is a waste."

After that, Mito Katohan distributed all the special kunai, and emphasized that "it can only be used when encountering Hanzo, and those who violate the order will be dealt with by military law."

After all the tasks were assigned, everyone filed out and gathered their troops to prepare for departure. After a while, thousands of ninjas in the camp walked out of the camp in batches and gathered at the gate.

Team leaders at all levels first loudly preached about the will of fire, for the village, for the family, etc., and then led the ninjas towards different goals.

Shirataki did not inform the two ANBU who were monitoring him, but left the camp alone. He believed that the two men would follow him. Before leaving, he took one last look at the Konoha camp, which seemed to be deserted, and secretly sighed at Mito Kadobu's generosity.

If this wave of offensive can achieve the expected strategic goals, their station should also move forward until they penetrate deep into the heart of the Kingdom of Rain.

Shirataki walked boredly through the woods, hills, and fields, with his perception turned on from time to time, searching for any suspicious targets. The so-called suspicious only refers to enemies with chakra strength at the Jonin level.

There is only one task given to Shirataki by Mito Monohan, and that is to contain Hanzo. Before Hanzo showed up, Shirataki was extremely free to move. And now that Hanzo has not shown up, Shirataki does not dare to rush into the Hidden Rain Village to look for traces of Nagato. As Naoki is following the team of Tsunade and the others, there will be no danger for the time being.

In other words, doing nothing. In order not to waste his time meaninglessly, Shirataki decided to do some private work, such as hunting some rain ninjas to improve his actual combat experience.

Although Amegakure Village is just a small ninja village, and the ninjutsu it spreads is generally not very good, Shirataki feels that stones from other mountains can attack jade, and it is always beneficial to accumulate more experience.

Besides, idleness is idle anyway, and it is better than nothing than wasting time. The goal he set for himself was to become a jounin rain ninja. After all, the value of a chunin genin was already too low in his current opinion.

Since Shirataki didn't have anyone with him, he moved very quickly and found his prey in no time. They were three teams with about ten people each. The chakra strength of the people in the team varied greatly. The upper limit was for jounin, and the lower limit... I am afraid that even genin could not reach it.

With a team of more than ten people gathered together like this, Bai Taki had encountered several waves along the way. Because he had not found any prey that met his requirements, Bai Taki was too lazy to pay attention to them. However, he did not expect that he would directly encounter the third team this time.

"Two o'clock, 3,500 meters." Bai Taki opened his two supplementary eyes. After confirming the target position again, his opened supplementary eyes were already flashing with a little blue light.

Click... With a series of crisp sounds, the ground under Shirataki's feet cracked. If anyone else were present, they would find that there were no human figures above the broken soil, but the flying gravel still stayed in the air.

Shirataki unknowingly walked in front of the group of rain ninjas, blocking their way. He didn't rush to take action, but first took a look at the dozen rain ninjas in front of him.

The leader of the rain ninja, who was probably in his thirties, was holding a kunai in front of him and looking at him nervously. Behind him, there were five or six Rain Ninjas each holding a variety of weapons, on alert.

As for further afield... huh? Are those kids? Bai Taki looked at the back of the crowd in confusion, seeing those short and thin figures, generally no more than 1.5 meters tall.

Although most of his sight was blocked by the rain ninja in front, Shirataki could still see the children behind the rain ninja through his secondary eyes. Their chakra strength was probably not even up to the standards of ordinary genin. So, why did Yu Ren retreat with a group of dragsters?

When Shirataki looked at the rain ninjas, the rain ninjas were also observing Shirataki, the mysterious man who suddenly appeared.

Wearing a white robe, a mask, and a white attire, it is impossible to tell the force he belongs to just from his appearance. Just because he is not wearing a forehead protector and is not wearing Konoha's standard vest. It means that there is nothing about him that belongs to Konoha. The Leaf Ninja logo can’t be overstated either.

For Amegakure in this area, only Konoha ninjas can be called their enemies. Although he didn't know whether the person in front of him was an enemy or a friend, the leading rain ninja Jonin had a serious face and tense nerves, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

Just because Shirataki's ghostly appearance really scared him a little. Shirataki clearly felt the vigilance of the rain ninjas, but he didn't take it seriously at all.

There were some things he needed to ask clearly before he could take action.

"You..." Shirataki spoke slowly, his tone was unhurried, "Are all of you ninjas from the Hidden Rain Village?"
