However, whether this matter had anything to do with Danzo or not no longer mattered.
Right now, the most important thing was how to break the deadlock.
The Mist Ninja had clearly come prepared this time.
In a force of just over a hundred men, there was not a single Genin, and the Team Captains of the twenty-odd squads were, for the most part, Special Jonin as well.
In addition, there were six true Jonin, including the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
It could be said that whether in mid-level combat power or high-end combat power, the Mist Ninja side held an absolute advantage, not to mention that they had nearly a third more people than Qian's side.
One had to know that these Mist Ninja were not the low-tier "shoddy ninja" trained by Iwagakure. As members who had come out of the "Bloody Mist Village," their average combat power was even higher than Konoha's side.
Because of that, their side had truly fallen into an absolute disadvantage.
Under these circumstances, if they wanted to break the deadlock, the first thing they had to do was stabilize the entire battlefield—especially the fighting among the Chunin. They absolutely could not let it collapse.
Once those people broke, these Jonin would not have an easy time either.
Just right.
Qian swept his gaze across the battlefield. Raiga Kurosuki, who possessed the "Thunder Blade," was being handled by the General Captain, who was skilled in Wind Style and Fire Release.
The deputy General Captain was blocking the wielder of the "Severing Blade"—Biwa Juzo.
As for the most dangerous wielder of the "Blast Sword"—Munashi Jinpachi—he was currently being held back by Uchiha Shisui's genjutsu and "Body Flicker Technique."
All three of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist had someone dealing with them
