As the village that first fought against Konoha, Sunagakure's every move naturally attracts Shinobi World's attention.
But this kind of attention does not make them feel glorious, because other countries are waiting for Konoha to beat Sunagakure so that they can evaluate Konoha's current military strength.
The results were as expected, Konoha was still invincible, and Sunagakure was still useless.
According to intelligence statistics, Sunagakure lost two thousand ninjas in the battle, lost three fortresses in a row, and the battle line was pushed forward hundreds of miles;
The young generation Orochimaru and Sakumo, who emerged from Second Great Ninja War, are still extremely strong;
Uchiha Chen, a genius who has long been considered to be on the same level as Sannin, has become even more popular at the same time and has achieved tremendous military exploits;
The next generation of ninjas, such as the trio Minato, Mikoto, Ino-Shika-Cho, etc., have also begun to show their prominence and come into the eyes of the world.
Konoha is worthy of being the overlord of Five Great Nations, the cradle of genius!
This strong performance also allowed other villages that had been watching on the sidelines to dispel their last bit of luck: If the four major countries cannot unite, the victory of this war will ultimately be Konoha!
Suddenly the border was turbulent, and even Hidden Cloud Village, who had been "mobilizing" for almost three months, couldn't stand it any longer and began to send troops Land of Fire.
Other countries are constantly moving, but the Land of Wind battlefield, where a fierce war was fought, is eerily quiet.
Hidden Sand Village is huddled in the fortress, afraid to come out. At most, he only sends out a small group of ninjas to harass Konoha every day.
Orochimaru did not attack aggressively, but chose to cultivate.
So during this period, Chen resumed his daily patrol - patrolling the empty areas of the defense line within the designated area, monitoring the movements of the Sunagakure ninja, and preventing small groups of enemies from infiltrating.
In this calm situation, Chen received the recall of Orochimaru.
After he returned to the frontline camp, he immediately saw Jiraiya, which looked like a Wangfu stone.
But Jiraiya was not waiting for Minato, but after seeing Chen return, his eyes lit up instantly.
He first said hello to Mikoto and Minato, and then he couldn't wait to pull Chen's sleeve and asked, "I heard Orochimaru said that you learned Sage Mode?"
During the war, this guy was sent to other places to perform S-level missions. He didn't come back until recently, and therefore missed Chen's performance.
"I've definitely learned it."
"Really, then enter one and let me see." Jiraiya seemed to have seen the women's bathroom, and his eyes shone with excitement.
"Right here? Teacher Orochimaru said that Sage Mode still needs to keep it a secret."
Apart from Orochimaru, the only ones who have seen Sage Mode are the Rasa trio. If it is used in public now, the spies in other villages will definitely know about it.
Jiraiya nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, come to my tent tonight, and we can discuss and discuss, for example... what posture can help you get into the state faster."
"..."
Chen suspected that Jiraiya was sexually harassing him, but... he had no evidence.
But does this require evidence?
Although from the known information, Jiraiya's sexual orientation is normal, but in view of his improper relationship with Orochimaru, coupled with the suggestive words... Chen felt that it would be better for him not to go tonight.
After thinking this, he sighed and said, "You guys chat first, I'll go find Teacher Orochimaru."
Orochimaru was the one who came back this time, so there must be some special mission.
When Chen walked into the central tent, he found that only Orochimaru was inside.
After the two of them greeted each other, Orochimaru didn't waste any time and got right to the point.
"According to the spy report, Third Kazekage is preparing to bring 70% of the ninjas in Hidden Sand Village to the front line."
"What, 70%?" Chen was a little unbelievable.
"Yes, Third Kazekage is ready to make a desperate move to drag us to Land of Wind."
Chen narrowed his eyes and asked, "But we only have two thousand ninjas now, so we can't resist so many enemies."
Orochimaru nodded, "The village has sent two thousand ninjas, and they will arrive Land of Wind in a while."
"That's four thousand... but the number is only half of the number."
"This is the limit that the village can send." Orochimaru sighed, and then
Pointing to the war map on the desktop, he continued:
"In the past six months, we have fought against Sunagakure and Kirigakure, but Iwagakure and Cloud have stood still.
But after this battle, according to the Scout Ninja report, Iwagakure had begun to take action. And Hidden Cloud Village, led by Third Raikage's Son, led two thousand ninjas and began to rush to the front line.
Troops have to be mobilized everywhere, and some ninjas have to be stationed in the village. Now we can only squeeze out this few troops. "
As the war broke out in an all-round way, Konoha's disadvantage was gradually revealed, that is, the lack of military strength!
Four fronts need to be defended at the same time. Konoha No matter how many ninjas there are, the number of people allocated to each front is extremely limited.
In other words... on every front, Konoha is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers.
If it were another village, it would probably explode on the spot, but Konoha, as the hand of Five Great Nations, naturally has his own background.
The most basic thing is that the quality of Konoha Ninja is much higher than that of other villages, which is why it can be maintained.
However, even this can't last long, Land of Wind must open up the situation as soon as possible.
This is also the reason why Orochimaru called Chen back, because under Sage Mode, he can be regarded as the highest combat power of Base, even Sakumo is far inferior.
"By the way, who is the commander who fights Cloud?" Chen asked curiously.
He knew from the other fronts that Cloud Shinobi had just attacked, so naturally the commander had to be dispatched from the village.
Could it be Tsunade who has been missing all this time?
"It's Danzo. He has been discussing a new agreement with Hanzō during this period. He was relatively close and took over the frontline command directly."
"Danzo... can he do it?"
In Chen's memory, Danzo is first the dark side of Konoha, and secondly he likes to make external equipment and get himself some modifications like Red Eye eye white blood cells.
This kind of person engages in intrigues, poaching Konoha-ism is a good hand, but directing the war...
Orochimaru shook his head. "Don't look down on him. How many people who have come from First Great Ninja War are easy to get along with?
The three consultants, including Third Hokage, have all commanded wars, especially yours, Aunt Koharu, who is not inferior to Nara Shikakumo in terms of strategy. "
Holding the grass, is it so cheating?
But think about it, First Great Ninja War, after Second Hokage died, the ones who supported the village were Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others who were still young people at that time?
"But I still feel that Danzo is not strong enough. Are you sure you are his opponent Third Raikage?"
"Third Raikage will not go to the battlefield for the time being, and Danzo is proficient in Wind Release and has natural restraint against Lightning Release."
Chen didn't speak, but he felt a little disapproving in his heart.
Lightning Release Chakra Mode, even Wind Release Rasengan can't be penetrated, Danzo's Wind Release are useless.
Moreover, Danzo's commanding ability is not mentioned for the moment, but his combat IQ is definitely not a joke?
You said that your combat ability has become weaker as you age, which is understandable, but combat IQ will not slowly decline over time.
The battle between Danzo and Sasuke is enough to show how low Pot King's combat IQ is.
Wood Release, Sharingan... These are the two top configurations in Hokage. Danzo is actually used as Substitution Jutsu, and a Suicide Style has also been developed. Can you believe it?!
Do you think you are a Sion!
