Platycodon Mountain, this large mountain with its back to Platycodon City, an important town in the western border of the Fire Country, originally had beautiful scenery and lush vegetation.
Nowadays, most of the mountains to the east are bare, with large swaths of charred land exposed and crisscrossed with ravines.
On the opposite side is the west side of Platycodon Mountain, where the mountains are steep and the vegetation is still lush.
At this time, earth-shattering explosions kept coming from the mountains and forests to the west.
More than two thousand ninjas from Konoha and Sand Ninja were engaged in a bloody battle.
"Kill all the ninjas in Konoha!"
"Victory in this war will eventually belong to Sand Ninja Village!"
The ninjas on Konoha's side are at an absolute disadvantage because this is an unequal battle.
On this battlefield, the number of ninjas on the Sand Ninja side was more than three times that of Konoha.
At the beginning, the Konoha side's ninjas could still fight and retreat under the leadership of the leading jounin, but as time went by, the Suna ninja side surrounded the Konoha ninjas.
...
Poof!
Uchiha Makoto followed the leading Jonin in retreating. He swung away the long knife that was slashed at him from the flank, and then slashed the enemy's throat with a sharp movement.
Hot blood splashed onto his face and his vest, which was already soaked in blood.
As the team retreated, fewer and fewer people survived.
In the end, out of Konoha's nearly 500-strong ninja brigade, less than 30 ninjas successfully exited the forest.
However, Uchiha Makoto was not among them.
At the last moment, due to lack of chakra and physical exhaustion, he was accidentally attacked by the Sand Ninja and died.
"Clean the battlefield immediately!"
"Search and rescue the wounded immediately!"
The Sand Ninja side did not relax because of their short-term victory, and immediately took action under the order of the leading Jonin.
They immediately cleaned the battlefield, searched for and rescued the wounded, and at the same time dealt with the fallen Konoha ninja.
As long as it was a ninja wearing a Konoha forehead protector, no matter whether he was alive or dead, he would stab his vitals a few times to make the dead completely dead, or pretend to be dead.
At this time, on the Sand Ninja side, a beautiful female Jounin who looked to be in her thirties came to Uchiha Makoto's body and stopped.
"What a cute little handsome guy! He looks like he died before he reached adulthood and never tasted female sex. What a pity!"
The female jounin couldn't help but sigh as she looked at Makoto Uchiha's face that was still extremely handsome even though it was soaked in blood.
The ninjas who were carrying the wounded looked at the back of the female jounin and felt a chill when they heard what she said.
The Black Lotus-sama didn't know why she was very hostile to the handsome man. They could see clearly just now that she would not hesitate to explode her chakra at the last moment to keep this young man from Konoha.
The penetrating wound on the boy's left chest to the center of his heart was caused by her.
As if to confirm their thoughts, the female jounin's expression of regret suddenly changed. With a sharp look in her eyes, she pulled out the long knife from behind, inserted it into the wound on the boy's heart, and stirred the long knife continuously.
"I just saw that you are good at swordsmanship, so I wanted to do this!"
After the female jounin finished doing this, she sheathed her ninja sword with a smile.
【Bitch! abnormal! 】
Uchiha Makoto, lying on the ground, roared silently, scolding this perverted female ninja in his heart.
He was in an extremely magical perspective at the moment. He could see, couldn't move, and felt no pain.
He didn't feel a thing when the kunoichi stabbed him.
[Is this what death feels like? 】
Doubts arose in Uchiha Makoto's heart. He died too quickly just now, and he didn't even suffer much pain.
[Even if I am a "dead person", don't you really have any special hobbies? I'm already cold. If I don't leave, I'm really going to die! 】
At this time, a Sand Ninja ran over with a livid face and whispered something in the ear of the female Jounin.
"What?! Orochimaru is attacking Platycodon Castle?" The female jounin's expression suddenly changed, "So that's it, he fell into a trap! He actually used so many ninjas as bait, and a dozen jounin just gave up. How cruel! "
"Lord Black Lotus! A large number of Konoha ninjas were discovered in the rear!" Just when the female jounin was shocked, another scouting ninja arrived.
Upon hearing this, the female jounin immediately ordered, "Stop the search and rescue! Everyone retreats immediately. We will set up an ambush halfway up the mountain to stop the Konoha ninjas!"
The ninjas of the Sand Ninja immediately stopped rescue and last-ditch attacks under the orders of the female jounin.
Before leaving, they did not leave any temporary traps or arrange detonating talismans.
Because lying underground, in addition to Konoha ninjas, there were also some seriously injured Suna Ninja Village ninjas. Whether they could survive or not depended on God's will.
Less than three minutes after the Sand Ninja troops left, Uchiha Makoto's body lying on the ground trembled slightly.
[The stagnation state is about to end...]
[The guardian angel is actively releasing, and the host will be resurrected in two seconds...]
A faint film of light suddenly appeared on the surface of Uchiha Makoto's body, and his shattered heart and wounds on other parts of his body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Bo~
The light film on Uchiha Makoto's body burst like blisters.
His body also suddenly sat up as if doing sit-ups.
The moment he stood up, he ignored the feeling of weakness in his body and tightly grasped the special straight knife that fell beside him, looking nervously on guard.
Uchiha Makoto stood up with his sword in hand. Several sand ninjas lying on the ground incapacitated around him were shocked when they saw such a supernatural scene.
Uchiha Makoto didn't waste any time. He took out the kunai from his ninja bag and hit their carotid arteries respectively.
At this time, in his sight, on the bodies of the four sand ninjas he had just killed, a golden treasure box the size of a fist floated from three of them.
The three golden treasure boxes shook for a while, and then 10, 9, and 4 gold coins were sprayed out from them.
"Only gold coins?" Uchiha Makoto looked a little disappointed, and then walked forward.
In his sight, he saw golden treasure chests floating out from the bodies of Sand Ninjas on the corpses all over the ground.
At the same time, he also killed the seriously injured Sand Ninja one by one.
Now that the war has lasted for such a long time, medical supplies are in short supply, and there are not enough wounded in Konoha, let alone for these Sand Ninja prisoners.
What's more, he is in a weak state now and no longer wants to waste a precious [Guardian Angel].
[Get 10 gold coins]
[Get 1 gold coin]
...
[Get 2 gold coins]
Uchiha Makoto kept opening the treasure chest and getting gold coins.
Just when he was lamenting his lack of luck, the last few treasure boxes brought him a surprise:
[Get "Storm Great Sword"]
[Get "Magic Resistance Cloak" x2]
[Obtain "Crit Gloves" x2]
"Two crit gloves?! What a piece of equipment!" Uchiha Makoto's eyes lit up when he saw the equipment exploded.
At this moment, the Sand Ninja under his feet who had just mended his sword suddenly moved.
Even though Uchiha Makoto was excited, he did not relax his vigilance at all. As soon as he turned the ninja sword in his hand, he wanted to hit him again.
"Wait a moment!"
