Chapter 179: Danzo’S Proposal, Conflict Arises
More than ten kilometers east of Fenghuang Village, people from the Xiao organization gathered here.
Payne Six Paths, Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame, Deidara and the Red Sand Scorpion.
A total of ten figures were waiting quietly in the forest.
It is worth mentioning that because Yahiko was resurrected, the Tiandao in Payne's Six Paths was replaced.
It’s none other than the former leader of Rain Shinobi Village, the so-called demigod Hanzō of the Salamander!
"Oh, what are we doing here? Just call us!"
"My explosive art has long been exhausted. I want to blow up the entire Phoenix Village into rubble!"
Deidara has a young mind and can't sit still, so he keeps nagging.
Although Xie is Deidara's teammate, he can't stand Deidara's nonsense.
He whispered: "Shut up!"
Deidara didn't care and continued: "Brother Scorpion, let's compete again today to see whose art kills more people."
Xie said disdainfully: "Your explosive art is worthless in front of my eternal art!"
Deidara immediately exploded when she heard that Xia was belittling her art.
He stood up and was about to show off his explosive art.
At this moment, Tiandao shouted: "Quiet!"
Deidara was very obedient and stopped talking immediately.
The next moment, half black and half white Zee emerged from the ground.
"Jue, how is the situation over there?" Tiandao asked.
"Hehehe!" Jue laughed twice and said: "Konoha has blown up a Planetary Devastation, but it is empty inside and there is not even a hair on the tailed beast."
Tiandao frowned and asked: "Is what Konoha blew up the Planetary Devastation that sealed hundreds of Sand Shinobi Village ninjas away?"
Jue said: "No, it's the one that seals Three Tails."
Tiandao looked expressionless and said calmly: "It seems that after Mizuki sealed the tailed beast in the Planetary Devastation, he secretly moved the tailed beast to other places."
"Other than that, is there any news?"
Zetsu said, "I found Uzumaki Naruto in Phoenix Village."
Tiandao: "Oh? Uzumaki Naruto is not dead? Well, it doesn't matter if he is not dead. If he is dead, Nine Tails will have time to resurrect."
Zetsu added: "Not only Uzumaki Naruto, but none of the six Phoenix Village Genin who took the Rock Shinobi Village Chūnin exam died."
At this time Uchiha Itachi said: "Since Uzumaki Naruto and the others are not dead, then Mizuki is also not dead?"
Jue shook his head: "I don't know!"
"I sent a clone into the village to investigate, but the clone only found out that a few Uzumaki Naruto were still alive, and was killed."
"I originally planned to send more clones in, but I always felt that there was a vague gaze staring at me in the dark, so I came back."
"I don't know whether Mizuki is dead or not."
Jue's ability to survive for thousands of years is inseparable from his caution.
As long as he senses danger, he will never take any bold risks.
This is his way of survival!
In fact, even here, he could vaguely feel that there was a pair of eyes above his head looking at him.
He was a little afraid, afraid that the person watching him was Sage of Six Paths, afraid that his true identity would be known by Sage of Six Paths.
Therefore, he must behave normally and fully demonstrate his unique identity.
Little did he know that what was "looking" at him was not the Sage of Six Paths, but the perception barrier of Phoenix Village.
Uchiha Itachi: "So, Mizuki is probably not dead!"
"His strength is so strong that even First Hokage Senju Hashirama is no match for him. It's hard to believe that he will be killed."
"Perhaps, this is Mizuki deliberately faking his death to attract the major ninja villages to fight for the tailed beasts and kill each other,"
Tiandao Payne: "No matter what, we will wait and see what happens."
"Zetsu, have the other three of the five great ninja villages arrived?"
Zetsu said: "The Rock Shinobi army is already ten miles north of Phoenix Village and is rapidly approaching Phoenix Village."
"Fourth Raikage and Fifth Mizukage, they have arrived near Phoenix Village a long time ago, but like us, they are still waiting and watching without showing up."
"They want to wait until the tailed beast appears before they take action!"
Tiandao Payne nodded and said: "Continue to monitor and report any situation immediately!"
…
All the ninjas in Konoha have come down from the mountain!
After so much effort, using Earth Style to build the earth mountain, and consuming a lot of detonating charms, the meteorite ended up being empty.
This made the people of Konoha slightly depressed.
They paused their actions and looked towards Sand Shinobi.
The strategy adopted by Sand Shinobi is the same as Konoha.
Although Sand Shinobi Village has more wind-type ninjas, there are also earth-type ninjas.
After all, it is one of the five major ninja villages. There will be no particularly obvious shortcomings in the training of ninjas.
The two earth mountains rose rapidly, approaching the Planetary Devastation, which was thousands of meters above the ground.
Immediately afterwards, there was the explosion of the detonating talisman.
Danzo said: "Actually, we can take advantage of the opportunity to eat the one thousand Sand Shinobi. After eating the one thousand people, we can attack another earth mountain."
"Sand Shinobi's strength is weakened, then we will have one less powerful opponent in the subsequent fight for the tailed beasts."
Although Danzo has a heart full of hatred, he really wants Konoha to be strong.
So now that he has an opportunity to target Sand Shinobi, he doesn't want to give up!
This time, Shikaku didn't raise any objection.
Although Konoha and Sand Shinobi Village are in an alliance, the so-called alliance is all nonsense.
During the last Chūnin exam, Orochimaru and Sand Shinobi teamed up to launch a Konoha collapse plan, although it was eventually resolved by Third Generation Summoning Uchiha Shisui with the help of Distinguished Heavenly Gods.
But the high-level officials of Konoha know about Sand Shinobi Village's wolfish ambitions.
Now everyone comes to the Bird Country to compete for the tailed beast. This is a struggle for interests.
The so-called alliance agreement is worthless in the face of interests.
Moreover, as soon as Sand Shinobi arrived, he sent a thousand people here to harass them, which was obviously with evil intentions.
No one has any mental barriers to taking action against Sand Shinobi.
Now is the opportunity, don't miss it.
Just now, we hit the manpower to explode the Planetary Devastation, and we needed to capture the tailed beast, so we couldn't spare more manpower.
But now, the Planetary Devastation is empty, and everyone in Konoha has their hands free. It is really the best time to take advantage of the opportunity to deal with Sand Shinobi.
"Haiichi, let Asuma, Kurenai and the others take action to entangle those thousand Sand Shinobi."
"We will organize an attack immediately and defeat and eat these thousand Sand Shinobi as quickly as possible."
Yamanakahai nodded, immediately sat down and raised his hand to form a seal.
"Ninpo·Tongshin Technique!"
Tongxin Technique allows you to talk directly to the other party without using any device, and input your own words directly into the other party's mind.
You can also accept what the other person says.
Ahead, at the confrontation between Konoha and Sand Shinobi, Asuma and Yuhi Kurenai suddenly remembered Haiichi's voice.
"Asuma, Kurenai, prepare to attack the Thousand Sand Shinobi that are confronting you. You don't have to fight hard, just trap them."
"The large forces at the rear will pass as quickly as possible. We must take this opportunity to kill all these thousand Sand Shinobi."
The Thousand Sand Shinobi opposite are led by Jōnin Yura.
Yura and Baki are very close comrades-in-arms. In the anime, Yura and Baki recommended Gaara to become the Fifth Kazekage, and successfully entered the upper echelons of Sand Shinobi Village.
But now, Gaara is in Phoenix Village, and Sand Shinobi Village has not elected a new Kazekage.
The Kazekages of all generations have mastered the Geotechnique and can control the sand.
This formed an inertial thought, that is, if you want to become a Kazekage, you must first learn to control sand.
After the death of Fourth Kazekage Rasa, Gaara is the only one who controls the location Technique of Sand Shinobi Village.
But Gaara did not return to Sand Shinobi Village. As a result, Sand Shinobi Village could not find anyone who could control the sand.
Until now, the candidate for Fifth Kazekage has not been determined.
Even Ebizō and Granny Chiyo, who have retired to take care of themselves, have to come out to take charge of the overall situation of Sand Shinobi Village.
"That meteorite was broken into pieces, but there was no tailed beast inside?"
Yura brought people here for two purposes. One is to prevent Konoha people from causing trouble when Sand Shinobi bombs Planetary Devastation. The second is to find opportunities to sabotage Konoha's operation to capture the tailed beasts.
So he has been paying attention to Konoha, and he has paid special attention to the Planetary Devastation in the sky.
After discovering that the Planetary Devastation exploded but there were no tailed beasts, Yura didn't think about why there were no tailed beasts, but immediately realized that the situation was not good for him.
"Since there are no tailed beasts in that meteorite, all the Konoha Shinobi are free."
His expression changed and he hurriedly ordered: "Go back immediately!"
We can no longer confront the people of Konoha, otherwise it will be too late to leave when the Konoha army arrives.
Seeing Sand Shinobi retreat, Asuma and Kurenai looked at each other, and then said loudly:
"Attack, don't let them escape!"
As soon as the words fell, the six hundred ninjas of Konoha rushed towards Sand Shinobi, using various Body Flicker Techniques, various jumps, and extremely fast speeds.
Six hundred people faced a thousand people, and there was no fear at all.
Shuriken and kunai were overwhelmingly covering Sand Shinobi.
Not seeking to kill, just delaying Sand Shinobi's retreat.
Sand Shinobi's side was not in chaos when faced with this locust-like ninja attack.
In the crowd, a girl holding a fan stopped and turned around.
It’s Temari!
I saw the fan in her hand unfolding and fanning it into the air.
"Wind Style. Great Scythe Itachi!"
The hurricane blew out from the fan, blowing the ninja tools flying in the air directly back.
"Temari, great job!" Yura praised.
Temari turned around gracefully and continued to retreat.
On Konoha's side, seeing that the ninja attack did not slow down Sand Shinobi, Asuma changed his strategy.
"Earth Style Ninja, Earth Style. Seismic core preparation!"
Immediately, dozens of Earth Style ninjas raised their hands and began to form seals. They ran forward and formed seals at the same time.
When the seals were completed, they stopped, bent down and squatted down, pressing their hands on the ground.
"Earth Style. Earthquake Core!"
A wave of waves spread forward from the palms of their hands, directly to the feet of the Sand Shinobi troops.
With so many people performing the same ninjutsu together, the effects are superimposed dozens of times, and the casting distance and scope of action are both increased.
The next moment, Sand Shinobi exclaimed, the ground beneath their feet suddenly sank.
In the blink of an eye, a large circular pit with a radius of tens of meters appeared, and Sand Shinobi, who was three or four hundred behind, fell into the pit.
"hateful!"
Yuliang cursed and ordered: "Turn back!"
The pit created by the seismic core was very deep, and it would take at least half a minute for the Sand Shinobi who fell into it to climb up. By the time they climbed up, the Konoha Shinobi behind them were all catching up.
If the remaining people leave directly, the three to four hundred people in this pit will be massacred.
At this time Temari said: "I estimated that it will take at least five minutes for Konoha's large forces to arrive."
"Why don't we take advantage of these five minutes to defeat these 600 Konoha Shinobi, otherwise they will follow us and slow us down."
Yura looked in the direction of Konoha's main force, then looked back at the back of Sand Shinobi.
On the mountain, there are thousands of Sand Shinobi led by Baki. At this time, they have stopped attacking Planetary Devastation, and the thousands of Sand Shinobi are coming down from the mountain.
Obviously, Baki discovered the situation here and was bringing people to support.
Yura calculated the time and felt that it should be in time.
So he nodded and said: "Okay!"
"Temari, as promised, fight back and defeat these six hundred Konoha Shinobi."
"Baki has already brought people here, and Granny Chiyo should also come to support us."
"The total number of people in Konoha is almost 3,500, which is 500 more than our Sand Shinobi. But if these 600 people can be defeated here, the gap in numbers will be evened out."
"Done!"
