The Wolf Is Coming

"However, I've learned something..."

Yugito glanced around and said, "To be an enemy of someone like you is truly chilling and despairing!"

"You are so outstanding with such a small force!"

"If the forces were equal, I doubt any ninja village could stop your advance!"

"I see absolutely no hope of victory for any ninja village!"

Upon hearing his words, Zabuza Kisame Hoshigaki couldn't help but nod in agreement, completely agreeing with Ye Liangnai's words.

Kisame Hoshigaki: "Your existence has made me believe in one thing: that there really are extraordinary beings in this world!"

"Hehe, I'm starting to look forward to the reaction of the entire Shinobi World after the news of your victory over the Four Great Ninja Villages gets out!"

"Hehe, that should be a very interesting thing!"

Everyone nodded again in agreement with Kisame Hoshigaki's words.

"Come on, it's not as amazing as you all say. I'm just an ordinary young man."

"I just happened to come up with a method that works when there are fewer people, don't think of me as so amazing!"

"Besides, if I gave them equal numbers of troops, would we need to be so humiliated? We could just go all out and fight head-on! Who would want to play it safe and develop their strength in a sneaky way when they can fight head-on!"

Ye Liangnai shrugged, looking like she couldn't do anything about it.

As for his words, Yugito still believed what he said later.

Anyone would be a fool to believe that statement!

Is he an ordinary person?

Then there would be no truly ordinary people in this world!

If ordinary people had his level of skill, that would be truly amazing!

"Alright, give the order to let everyone get some rest. We'll launch another attack on the Konoha Ninja in two hours!"

The Anbu immediately relayed the order.

Normally, if someone else were to issue such an order...

This will definitely cause a lot of discussion, and some people might even think that the person who gave this order is a fool!

After all, the enemy was right beside us; we should have been on guard.

But to actually order them to rest? What's wrong with their brains?

Only a fool would issue such an order!

But when such an order comes from Ye Liangnai, then there is no problem.

All the Mist Ninja fully trusted Ye Liangnai.

Even if no one understood the meaning of his order, no one would think it was a stupid order.

There must be a deeper meaning behind it!

Because in the eyes of ordinary Mist Ninja, Ye Liangnai is like a god of war!

His words and his decision were absolutely wrong!

"Is this really a good idea? The enemy is right next to us; are we just going to let them rest like this!"

"What if the enemy attacks? Wouldn't the losses be devastating?"

Although Yugito knew my plan, he still felt that my order for everyone to rest was a bit presumptuous!

"Don't worry, those people from Konoha won't attack anytime soon. They should still be on guard right now!"

"But this will consume a lot of their physical and mental strength!"

"Their vigilance will be relaxed in less than an hour, and then they will start exploring!"

"However, the traps we set along the way weren't for nothing; they will further delay their exploration!"

"Once they've explored this area enough, that's when I'll continue my attack!"

"And the Konoha will not make any moves until the exploration team sends back news!"

"At that time, a group of people who have had enough rest will face a group of people who are physically and mentally exhausted."

"Even if we don't have the advantage in numbers, at least we can make the already exhausted Konoha Ninja more focused and further deplete their energy."

"By daybreak, they were all exhausted, while we were relatively full of energy!"

"In terms of battlefield experience, I am no match for Konoha, not even close!"

"But tactically speaking, I don't think I'm inferior to them! Just wait for victory!"

Hearing Ye Liangnai's confident words, Yugito stared at him for a few seconds and then couldn't help but laugh, saying, "What a confident little man!"

Then, he leaned against a tree and closed his eyes to rest.

So, was Ye Liangnai's judgment wrong? No!

The atmosphere inside Konoha's headquarters was extremely serious, and no one dared to relax!

But the price they pay for doing this is that their mental state is not good at all!

Martial law at its highest level!

The Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, personally guarded the rear of the army, keeping an eye on Ye Liangnai.

Time is passing slowly!

There were occasional noises coming from ahead of them, which made the Third Hokage frown even more.

This feeling of being unable to adapt made him very uneasy!

One hour!

An hour and a half!

Two hours!

In the blink of an eye, two and a half hours had passed, Konoha had become somewhat listless.

Yes, waiting for two and a half hours is too torturous!

"Boom!"

Finally, a dazzling light shot into the sky—the signal of an enemy attack.

The Third Hokage had previously looked somewhat tired, suddenly became like a beast awakened from its slumber, shouting, "Prepare for battle!"

His orders were immediately relayed by various Anbu.

The entire Konoha camp suddenly became incredibly imposing, its aura soaring to the heavens and its power awe-inspiring!

Like a sword drawn from its sheath, it sends chills down your spine!

They vowed that if the Mist Ninja dared to come, they would make them pay.

But they waited and waited, ten minutes, twenty minutes, thirty minutes...

After waiting for a full half hour, they still hadn't seen a single enemy.

There wasn't even a fly, let alone an enemy!

But instead of the enemy, they were greeted by the return of the reconnaissance team!

Where is the enemy?

"Didn't they say the enemy was coming?"

"Have I been scammed? Or is it a fake signal!"

Not only were the Konoha Ninja puzzled, but even the Third Hokage was baffled.

The reconnaissance team clearly reported an enemy attack, but where is the enemy?

Seeing the bewildered expressions on the faces of the entire reconnaissance team, the Third Hokage frowned even more deeply!

"Are you sure you've encountered the enemy? You're not lying?" the Third Hokage asked them to confirm.

"Yes, Lord Hokage, we are willing to swear on our lives that we absolutely did not give false information!"

The entire exploration team was extremely serious and resolute, without the slightest hint of guilt or wavering.

"This is troublesome!"

Hearing what the reconnaissance team said, the Third Hokage's expression immediately became much more serious. He said, "This White Cold Light is trying to play the 'boy who cried wolf' trick, trying to mislead our judgment!"

"How does this guy's brain work? He actually came up with this method so quickly. It's amazing that a twelve-year-old can have such wisdom!"

If we say that Ye Liangnai's strength was unparalleled in the Shinobi World at the age of twelve, that would be one thing.

But if intelligence can be this terrifying, then it really is a headache, something to be wary of, and something to be afraid of!

This means that he still has a lot of room to grow, so much so that they can't even guess the limits.

With such a formidable enemy lurking in the shadows, the entire Shinobi World would likely feel uneasy.
