Time passed little by little, and Yubi was doing targeted clearing, attacking and killing the special "characters" in Konoha's formation.
Konoha also relies on its strong combat power to kill enemies quickly.
And as time goes by, it becomes more and more difficult for Yubi to use some of its own advantages to cause chaos in the position where Konoha was first positioned. He is very eye-catching as a target in the eyes of Konoha Ninja."
Konoha even sent a special pursuit team to try to prevent him from causing damage to its own battlefield.
Even if it is unable to cause effective attack or damage to Yubi for the time being, it can at least buy some time for people who can deal with Yubi to rush to this area.
Sarutobi Clan, Shimura Clan, Yamanaka Clan, Aburame Clan, members of the Shiranui clan, etc. were successively attacked by him."
"Almost--"
Feeling that the danger and pressure he was facing on the court were increasing, Yubi knew that he had to retreat.
Otherwise, his life will be in danger.
At this time, the Konoha army had completely gained a foothold in Lin Haizhong through its own strong strength, and wrested a trace of the initiative from their Sunagakure hands.
This shows that Konoha can take more detailed and thorough countermeasures against his sneak attack.
What if--Hiruzen Sarutobi that old man comes to arrest him, this is in the Konoha formation, the situation will be very bad.
Although Yubi feels that he has the power to fight against the Kage Level unit, it is not one-on-one now, and the person coming is very likely to be Hokage from Five Kage. The Hiruzen Sarutobi shadow, which is the most comprehensive in strength and has considerable combat experience, is also divided into strong and weak. Each person's focus and template for fighting are different.
Such as Hiruzen Sarutobi, Yubi feels that it is the most dangerous shadow for him."
When you grow old and become a monster, you have lived a long life - not in vain.
Let's not talk about the battlefield environment, which is not good for ourselves. Even if we fight one-on-one - Yubi thinks that he has very little chance of winning against the third generation Hokage.
When fighting Orochimaru, Yubi noticed some shortcomings in his own fighting - these are the points that Hiruzen Sarutobi can use against him. The opponent must have understood his Blood Release and other methods through Minato Namikaze's narration.
And although I have some information about the old man Sarutobi through the original work, I dare not say that I know everything about it.
Hiruzen Sarutobi is "Dr. Ninjutsu" - there are quite a lot of Nature Transformations that are proficient and can be skillfully used in battle, which means that the opponent's fighting methods and changes can be many and unpredictable.
It is different from the style of Third Kazekage, which is powerful but has a relatively simple fighting style.
The current third generation Hokage is definitely stronger than Orochimaru - it is not that old or weak yet.
Moreover, the Konoha collapse plan planned by Orochimaru in later generations could make Hiruzen Sarutobi die - Yubi always felt that the old man still missed his old love for his apprentice and was a little soft-hearted.
But he is not Orochimaru-if the third generation Hokage appears now, there is absolutely no chance of letting him go.
Whoosh--
Yubi galloped quickly towards Sunagakure's battlefield position.
As for Konoha Ninja who was chasing him or surrounding him, Yubi simply ignored them.
Prioritize retreat.
However, he didn't run away for long.
Konoha There was someone biting him hard here.
It was approaching at a faster speed than him, trying to stop him.
And looking at Konoha's army, there is no one else who has this ability except Minato Namikaze.
After the battlefield situation was under certain control for Konoha, Minato received the news and came immediately after hearing the news.
"Heh."
Seeing his old rival, Yubi raised his lips.
Immediately increase the output of Blood Release and cover the body surface with a layer of solidified armor."
At this time, I was very calm facing Minato--Yubi.
Because he knows that with the current damage of Minato on the offensive end, it is impossible to break his defense.
Bang bang bang!
The two had a brief fight in the air - but Yubi kept moving at high speed, and even if Minato deliberately approached, he just ignored it."
He even allowed it to launch some offensive attacks against him.
It can be seen that Minato also knows very well that he poses no real threat to himself, so Minato's fighting intention is to hinder and delay his progress, so that other nearby Konoha teams can use every opportunity to support him and surround him.
Yubi Of course we can't let him get what he wants.
"It's useless - you can't stop me."
Yubi was jumping in and out of the forest at high frequency, and Minato was following him not far behind like a dog-skin plaster.
He turned back and smiled.
The latter's Flying Thunder God Technique also needs some preconditions if it wants to be activated continuously. It is best if the space and venue are fixed within a period of time.
And in the current situation of high-speed displacement - as long as Yubi keeps running, with the current ability of Minato, there is not much that can be done in pursuit.
"We will win this war."
Minato said calmly.
"Where is this? You are too confident--"Yubi looked at him.
The surrounding forest scenes quickly receded behind their heads.
"It's not confidence, it's a fact. Even if you Sunagakure occupied this forest sea in advance and made some preparations - but you should have noticed that now our Weiye army has advanced the controllable battlefield range to the combat area where you Sunagakure originally deployed - winning this war is only a matter of time."
Minato said calmly.
In the game between the two armies, all the means and calculations are only tactical aids. What ultimately matters is the head-on confrontation.
Obviously, Konoha's battlefield performance completely outperforms Sunagakure.
Even if Yubi went deep into the hinterland of the Konoha army on his own to wreak havoc, it did have a certain impact on the Konoha army, but it was far from enough to reverse the overall situation.
"I have to admit that your strength impresses me, but it seems that your understanding of the battlefield is not very deep."
"If it were the third generation Hokage, he would never dare to say that--"
"It seems that - you are not without weaknesses, at least in terms of the overall situation - your acuity is a bit lacking."
Yubi's tone is teasing.
After finishing his words, he said softly, "Don't worry, the fun has just begun."
Minato heard this and his expression changed.
After struggling with Yubi for a few minutes, Minato stopped and landed on a tree.
Some other Konoha Ninjas in the rear arrived belatedly.
"There is no need to chase - the opponent has been driven away. If you go further, you will reach Sunagakure's position. It is too dangerous." Minato raised his hand to stop a group of companions and watched Yubi disappear into the shadows under the trees, saying in a deep voice.
"Inform Lord Hokage, Sunagakure's army may have some tactical arrangements and plans later."
Minato thought of what Yubi just said and said immediately.
"Okay."
One person in the team nodded and immediately rushed away.
Minato was just about to notify Hokage, but Hiruzen Sarutobi, on the other side, already relied on his experienced battlefield experience to realize that something was wrong. The formation of Sunagakure's army was already changing.
You must know that the entire border area is quite vast. Even if the armies of the two villages fought in this forest sea, the main battlefield would only be concentrated in a certain area, rather than extending to the entire border.
But now, facing the overwhelming offensive of their Konoha army, the main force of Sunagakure actually dispersed into small combat teams, deliberately spreading towards areas outside the main battlefield.
In this way, the battlefield will undoubtedly become larger - and at the same time, the strength of the two armies will become more dispersed.
Not so focused anymore.
The most important thing is that they Konoha still have to pursue them, because this is Land of Fire's territory - the battle will not end unless the enemy is repelled or expelled.
"Once the battlefield area expands, the situation on the field will evolve into fighting and interaction between single teams - there will be a large number of vacuum areas that are not affected by the war" - it will be more difficult for both of us to grasp what is happening on the battlefield at all times. The transmission of intelligence and messages, including the cooperation between various teams, and real-time communication will not be easy -"
Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath.
Sunagakure This means injuring the enemy by one thousand and damaging yourself by eight hundred.
Although Sunagakure's army will also be affected, there is no doubt that the party with the greater impact is Konoha, who has just gained a slight victory.
The Sunagakure army suddenly acted like this and immediately destroyed the little situation they had controlled.
It also makes Hiruzen Sarutobi feel more and more that this time the commander of Sunagakure's army - the junior named Arai - is indeed not simple.
