An ambush turned against the ambushers

Upon hearing Minato Namikaze's words, Kakashi was the first of the four people following behind him to speak. 💎😂 😡😝

"Fourth Hokage-sensei, I'll join too."

Minato Namikaze frowned and glanced at Kakashi, who had a serious expression on his face. "Kakashi, you?"

"I've already passed half of the Jonin Exams. Fourth Hokage-sensei, you should know my strength. I'll pass without any problems."

"Okay, then, the rest of you..." Minato nodded, Minato Namikaze gaze intentionally or unintentionally sweeping over Yang Xing.

"Hey, I'll go, okay?" Faced with Minato Namikaze's gaze, Yang Xing realized that he had no choice but to go now.

Knowing full well that Yang Xing would say that, Bu Fang smiled and turned his attention back to Rin Nohara and Obito: "As for Yang Xing, I don't mind, but what about you two?"

Obito's face darkened with anxiety, and he said hastily, "Fourth Hokage-sensei, you promised me you'd let me go to the front lines."

After glancing at Yang Xing, Rin Nohara nodded repeatedly.

"But?"

Minato Namikaze was about to say something when Yang Xing waved his hand and said directly, "Forget it. Even if we don't let this guy go, he'll just secretly follow along."

After some thought, Minato Namikaze had to admit that this possibility was indeed very high. Rather than letting them sneak around and risk more danger, it would be better to accompany them directly, so that they could have someone to look after them.

"Alright then." Having understood this, Minato Namikaze's expression turned serious. "Remember, this mission is very serious, and it's no joke. What we need to do is actually quite simple, so don't act rashly."

"Um."

The four nodded.

The tasks were clearly divided.

Minato Namikaze's method is simple and also the most conservative one currently available.

It's impossible for a thousand people to suddenly surge forward all at once when the enemy begins their attack.

There will certainly be a small advance force leading the way, and these people will be quite numerous. If they want to move forward, they will definitely have to pass through a place called Kannabi Bridge.

They laid an ambush with a group of skilled Konoha ninja to launch a surprise attack on the Land of Earth ninja.

At that time, it will definitely trigger a large-scale battle, and the ninjas of the Land of Earth in the rear cannot be unaware of this. Team Minato's mission will officially begin: to separate the vanguard from the reinforcements in the middle and delay them for a certain period of time.

The difficulty of this task is undeniable.

However, given that the ninjas from Konoha haven't all arrived yet, this is the only option.

But things really won't go as easily as Minato Namikaze imagines.

Rain began to fall, and as if sensing the oppressive force of the rain, the heavens sent down a torrent of dark rain.

The Kannabi Bridge is a Taiseki connecting two places. It is spacious and magnificent, and its architecture is a masterpiece of nature.

On both sides of the bridge, there was a dense forest, equally dark and invisible.

On the bridge, a figure stood upright, letting the rain wash over his body, his posture unwavering, staring straight ahead.

"It's finally starting. Looks like I'll have to be more proactive. My plan can't fail because of that brat's sudden appearance. Although it was unexpected that he joined Team Minato, a brat is just a brat, nothing to be afraid of. I've also made some changes to my plan, which those guys can't possibly know."

With a leap, the person appeared like a gentle breeze, disappearing into the dark forest.

Time flies, it passes by very quickly.

At this moment, around noon, another group of people arrived at Kannabi Bridge. This time, there were nearly a hundred of them, all of whom were extremely experienced ninjas, ranging from Jonin to outstanding Genin, making them a very powerful force.

"Alright, the Land of Fire is just ahead. As per the Lord Tsuchikage's orders, advance directly towards Konoha. If any Land of Fire ninjas try to stop you, show no mercy and kill them all."

"Heh heh! Finally, I can kill people! Finally, I can kill indiscriminately without being stopped."

"Hey, Zhen, don't be too aggressive and get too close."

Looking at the special Jonin ahead, the Jonin leading the vanguard also looked rather grim.

He shook his head slightly, hoping that the guy ahead wouldn't make too much noise and attract too many enemies.

At this moment, the Kannabi Bridge was very quiet, as usual, peaceful, which felt a little strange.

As the hundred ninjas leaped and darted about, they sensed the anomaly as they approached the border of the Land of Fire.

There was nothing wrong on the bridge, and there was absolutely no sound at the border of the Land of Fire.

This made the Jonin of the group of Jonin's expression turn sour.

"Something's wrong! Could it be that those guys are planning to start a fight here?" His face paled, realizing there were Jonin ambush on the other side, and he couldn't help but shout, "Hey, Shin, come back right now!"

"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about?" the Jonin, puzzled.

In the instant he turned his head to ask another question, he failed to notice the movement ahead.

Puff!

Blood stained half the sky red.

Countless ninjas emerged from the cliff Kannabi Bridge, and in that instant, they stabbed the lurking special Jonin, severely injuring him and nearly killing him instantly.

Realizing there was indeed an ambush, the leader Jonin his teeth and, without retreating, shouted, "Everyone, don't be afraid! There are only less than a hundred men. Keep up! These people can't stop our advance!"

The ninjas from the Land of Earth were clearly not to be trifled with, given the ambush set by the Land of Fire.

As the ninjas from both countries clashed, all sorts of Ninjutsu flew through the air.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique."

"Wind Style: Great Breakthrough."

Earth Style: Rock Lodging Destruction!

"Earth Style: Earth Style: Earth Mausoleum Dumpling"

Boom boom boom!

The earth roared in response to these countless Ninjutsu.

Amidst the chaotic Ninjutsu, injuries occurred frequently, with casualties piling up on the Konoha side in addition to the ninjas from the Land of Earth.

Hiding in the bushes, they watched the Minato's Team One ahead, motionless.

"Fourth Hokage-sensei, shall we take action now?" Yang Xing asked, glancing ahead.

Once he recovered, Minato Namikaze's expression turned serious. He said earnestly, "Yeah, don't let them spot us. Stick close to me, don't get caught up in the battle ahead."

With a leap, he was the first to pass through the right side of the battle and venture deeper into the Kusagakure on the opposite side.

Yang Xing and the others followed closely behind.

However, the weather was really bad; the forest was very slippery after being washed by the rain, which caused Rin Nohara was relatively weak, to fall far behind.

This slowed down the entire team's pace, and if they couldn't arrive on time, Minato's plan would fail completely.

It was clear that Rin Nohara was struggling to keep up.

Without a second thought, Yang Xing turned around and jumped, landing directly in front of Rin Nohara. Before the little girl could even speak, he swept her up in his arms.

"Yang Xing!" The little girl was astonished to see her head fly up, which made her face turn red.
