"Fire Escape: Fire is extinguished!"
Uchiha Tokumitsu and his subordinate Jonin jointly used high-level fire escape ninjutsu, and in one fell swoop, they burned the last Kirigakure ninja army to ashes.
After the commander of the Kirigakure Ghost Club, Onito Shuitai, was killed by Uchiha Tokko, the Kirigakure Ninja Army, which was originally on the verge of collapse, was suddenly defeated. The Ninja Army formation was interrupted and suppressed by the Uchiha Ninja Army. Also declared a collapse.
At this point, the two Kirigakure ninja armies commanded by the Fugu Demon in Watermelon Mountain were officially declared destroyed.
The two Kirigakure ninja troops that landed from the eastern waters of the Country of Uzumaki, the Kirigakure Kaguyabe and the Onidenbe, not only failed to suppress and attack as expected, but instead gave Uchiha Tokumitsu an excellent opportunity to divide and attack. Chance.
After this battle, the three thousand Kirigakure ninja troops who attacked the Kingdom of Whirlpool lost one-third of their combat strength in a short period of time. Moreover, once the defeated Kirigakure ninja army fled back to the headquarters under the direct command of Watermelon Mountain Fugu Oni, if news of the defeat spread, it would undoubtedly be a fatal blow to the morale of the two thousand Kirigakure ninjas.
Uchiha Tokumitsu still did not arrange manpower to chase the fleeing Kirigakure ninjas. After all, after a series of battles, although they won, the Uchiha ninja army was exhausted.
"Lord Tokumitsu, we have captured a valuable prisoner~"
Two Uchiha Jonin and one Uzumaki ninja excitedly carried the tightly tied human body in front of Uchiha Tokko.
The word 'densely packed' is used to describe it because there are so many ropes and sealing charms tied around this prisoner that they all wrap up his body in one fell swoop.
"This is... a ninja from the Ghost Lantern clan?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu looked at the captives who were presented as tribute by his ninjas as if they were treasures.
He has blue-white hair, fair skin, and prominent jagged teeth exposed in his mouth that is tightly gagged. Judging from the appearance, he is somewhat similar to the ghost Shuitai who died under Uchiha De's lightsaber. .
"Yes, he is also the only prisoner of Ghost Lantern captured by this department."
The Uzumaki ninja rushed to say like offering a treasure: "It must be of great research value!"
The tightly tied prisoner of the ghost lamp struggled again after hearing this.
"Take off his gag."
Uchiha Tokko ordered.
"yes!"
The Uchiha Jonin immediately reached out and roughly pulled out the wooden ball from the prisoner's mouth.
"vomit~vomit~~cough cough cough~~"
After taking out the ball, the prisoner immediately vomited violently and then coughed non-stop.
"Do you have anything else to say?"
Uchiha Demitsu squatted down and asked gently.
"Lord Deguang, don't kill me..."
When the ghost lamp prisoner heard this, he immediately coughed and shouted.
"Do you know me?" Uchiha Tokumitsu asked with great interest.
"Before the war, every squad leader distributed portraits of you and Mr. Sakumo."
The ghost lamp prisoner's words were full of desire for survival.
"Really~"
Uchiha Tokumitsu signaled a search, and Uchiha Jonin immediately stepped forward and groped for a moment on the prisoner, and then took out a folded piece of paper from his ninja tool bag. After opening it, it was Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hatake Sakumo. portrait.
"My painting skills are pretty good~"
Uchiha Tokko praised.
"Tell me about yourself, what is your value?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu casually burned the portrait to ashes with fire escape chakra and asked seriously.
The Ghost Lantern prisoner immediately shook out all his information like beans from a bamboo tube.
Momozawa Kito, a Kirigakure chuunin, is from a side line of the Kito clan. He has an average status and average strength. He is good at the water escape ninjutsu, but he has not mastered the secret water transformation technique of the Kito clan. In short, he is just one of them. A mediocre Kirigakure ninja with a bonus from the ninja clan.
If we want to talk about the biggest characteristic, it is this unexpected greed for life and fear of death.
"Hakuzawa Chuunin, you don't want to die either, do you?"
Uchiha Tokko's attitude was more gentle and kind.
"Your order is my mission!"
Ghost Deng Baize once again expressed his loyalty fearfully.
It's just that his overly enthusiastic surrender made Uchiha Tokko feel particularly unreal.
Even Kusanagi, who is known for his soft body, would shout a few words like "loyal to the leader" before surrendering, and then he would put down his weapon and surrender.
You must know that Kirigakure is a conservative ninja village that has always advocated secrecy and traditional ninja creeds. It is also known for its ferocious and brutal warriors who are not afraid of death.
However, Onito Momozawa showed such a soft waist, which really did not fit the image of Kirigakure in the impressions of the major ninja villages in the ninja continent.
Especially since Momozawa Kito was born in the wealthy Kito clan of Kirigakure, Uchiha Tokumitsu would not believe him if he had no sense of family honor at all.
Therefore, Uchiha Tokumitsu felt that there must be something fishy in this.
It's just that we are still in a state of war and can't find time to interrogate in detail yet, so Uchiha Tokumitsu won't worry too much for the time being.
"Then, are you willing to accept the arrangement?" Uchiha Tokumitsu said with a smile on his face, still gentle: "You're not thinking about how to escape, are you?"
"No, no!" Gui Deng Baize shook his head repeatedly, looking extremely panicked.
"I have other plans for you after the war." Uchiha Tokumitsu gestured to the Jonin next to him to put the ball back into Onito Momozawa's mouth, and then said: "Congratulations on your survival."
Gui Deng Baize's body immediately relaxed.
"There is no need to keep other prisoners." Uchiha Tokumitsu stood up and ordered another Uchiha jounin: "Send a signal to Sakumo-kun to prepare for battle!"
"As you command!"
The Uchiha jounin immediately left to arrange various matters, and the Uzumaki ninja picked up the ghost lamp Momozawa and carried it back to the rear.
Immediately, two pillars of smoke, one red and one yellow, rose into the sky, indicating that the headquarters had annihilated the enemy.
After a while, two yellow smoke pillars also rose from the west direction of the Whirlpool Kingdom.
Sakumobe is also ready for battle.
The Watermelon Mountain Fugu Ghost, who was commanding the ninja army and Hatake Sakumo's allied ninja forces to attack and kill endlessly, also noticed the changes on the battlefield and fell into deep thought.
Can this war continue?
At this time, Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost was very confused.
Some of the ninjas who fled after the defeat of the Kaguya tribe have returned to the headquarters of the Kirigakure ninja army, but these people are under house arrest by the Watermelon Mountain Fugu Ghost.
Although the news of the defeat of the two Kirigakure Ninja Army that landed in the east has not yet spread among the Kirigakure Ninja Army headquarters, at this time, the smoke pillar signals rising from Hatake Sakumo's headquarters and the eastern part of Uzumaki Country are already very obvious. It means that the split attack ninja army has been completely defeated.
At this time, the two thousand Kirigakure ninja troops under his command took turns to attack the position of Hatake Sakumo's 1,000 ninja clan coalition. Not only did they fail to advance, but they suffered heavy casualties under the orderly counterattack of the Konoha ninja army.
This also made the Watermelon Fugu Demon realize the shortcomings of the Kirigakure Ninja Army who placed too much emphasis on the personal combat power of the ninja and ignored the combat discipline of the legion.
Compared with the coordinated and methodical defensive counterattacks of the Konoha ninja army, the Kirigakure ninjas who relied on their personal bravery and ferocity to launch continuous waves of attacks were simply a mess.
Amid internal and external troubles, the pufferfish ghost in Xiguashan didn't know what to do for a while.
But Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hatake Sakumo had no time to take into account the wandering mood of the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Ghost at this time.
After resting and recuperating, Uchiha Tokumitsu led the Uchiha Ninja Army to easily establish a temporary position on a hilly highland in the east of the Kirigakure Ninja Army.
The reason why they approached the left wing of the Kirigakure Ninja Army so easily was precisely because the Kirigakure Ninja Army ignored the perimeter of the camp.
Hatake Sakumo also went to the Uchiha Ninja Army camp to join Uchiha Tokumitsu, and also brought over all the combat ninjas and medical ninjas in the mobile unit.
The arrival of the mobile unit also greatly enriched the strength of the ninja army under Uchiha Demitsu.
"Tokumitsu-kun, I hope that after launching a counterattack at our headquarters tomorrow, you can launch small-scale trial attacks in multiple batches from the south and east of the Kirigakure camp, and contain the power of the Kirigakure ninja army through constant biting. .”
Hatake Sakumo drew a battle plan on the map.
He is not a meek person, nor does he have the habit of just being beaten without fighting back. The slightly passive defensive counterattacks in the past few days have made Hatake Sakumo, who is used to rushing forward, very uncomfortable.
Although he always showed a gentle and gentle image in Konoha, Uchiha Tokko knew that Hatake Sakumo's fighting style in the Ninja Army was as fierce and sharp as his sword skills.
"What if Kirigakure's camp defenses are empty?"
Uchiha Tokko asked rhetorically.
"Don't break into the camp for the time being." Hatake Sakumo thought for a moment, "Even if Kirigakure's outer defenders are defeated, don't break into the camp alone. Try to give Kirigakure the illusion that the flanking attacking troops are just to contain the troops."
Although what Hatake Sakumo said was a bit convoluted, Uchiha Tokumitsu still understood what he meant.
"In that case, when do you plan to launch a general attack?"
"Tomorrow at six o'clock in the afternoon." Hatake Sakumo said firmly: "The battle must be ended within two days!"
Uchiha Tokko was a little surprised when he heard this.
"...Could it be that Goju Yagura has landed?"
Uchiha Tokko thought for a moment, and his expression became serious.
"...The Kirigakure ninja army led by Goju Yagura landed in the eastern region at noon yesterday, and the eastern border defense forces collapsed in one battle..."
Hatake Sakumo sighed and said weakly.
"...What a bunch of trash!"
Uchiha Tokko cursed fiercely.
"The village has once again organized a ninja army of one thousand people, led by Orochimaru. They are expected to arrive in the east for defense tomorrow afternoon."
Hatake Sakumo told the recent intelligence, "In addition, the north is not stable. It is said that the ninja army led by Sarutobi Shinnosuke has fought Kumogakure several times."
"Then...our top priority is to defeat the ninja army under the command of the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon as soon as possible to prevent him from entering the country and joining Goju Yagura, right?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu rubbed his temples with a headache.
"Yes."
Hatake Sakumo was silent for a moment, and then answered with a heavy tone.
He also knew that even if such a fighting method could quickly defeat the Kirigakure ninja army, it would bring huge casualties to his side, especially since the ninja troops under his command were all children of various ninja clans in Konoha. The number of people he attacked without regard to casualties was two of his own. The Kirigakure ninja army would definitely suffer heavy casualties, and it would also have a negative impact on him. However, the situation was so corrupt that he could no longer slowly cut his flesh with a knife.
"Tomorrow morning I will break up the family ninja army into small teams to launch a feint attack."
After thinking for a moment, Uchiha Tokumitsu replied: "At six o'clock in the afternoon, I will lead the mobile force to storm the Kirigakure camp and directly seize its command center!"
"good!"
Hatake Sakumo breathed a sigh of relief.
"But..." A smile appeared on Uchiha Tokko's face: "I still have a condition..."
"I agreed!"
Hatake Sakumo simply answered without asking any questions.
"I haven't said anything yet..." Uchiha Tokumitsu felt dumbfounded, "I am very interested in the same shark muscle of the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost. If you capture it then, it will be mine!"
"Don't talk about Samehada! I'll give you both the long knife and the stitches!"
Hatake Sakumo relaxed after hearing this, thinking it was a request.
"In that case, it's a deal!"
"It's a deal!"
Hatake Sakumo stood up, made a high-five with Uchiha Tokumitsu, and then left in a hurry.
Although the distance between the main camp of the Ninja Alliance and Uchiha Tokumitsu's temporary camp was not far, he was also worried that the Kirigakure Ninja Army would take advantage of the cover of night to steal the camp.
Although the night was getting darker at this time, the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost felt extremely uncomfortable.
Uchiha Tokumitsu's strength had already been seen when he and Gotachibana Yagura tried to set up an ambush to surround and kill the mobile troops in the Country of Whirlpool.
Moreover, the combat information received since Goju Yagura landed in the Land of Fire has been sent to the hands of the Xiguashan Puffer Ghost. After reading it, the Xiguashan Puffer Ghost suddenly felt Alexander.
In particular, the Kirigakure ninja army led by Goju Yagura defeated Konoha's eastern border defense forces in one fell swoop, winning the only victory since the conflict between Kirigakure and Konoha.
Comparing these two records, the losses suffered by the Xiguashan Puffer Ghost Division are not unserious.
"Turn into……"
The pufferfish ghost of Xiguashan sat in the ninja army's tent, silently thinking about how to escape.
In Goju Yagura's letter, there is also a sincere invitation to lead his troops to transfer.
Instead of continuing to tangle with the two villains Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hatake Sakumo in the barren land of Whirlpool Country, it would be better to directly disobey the instructions of the Third Mizukagetsu and cross the sea to the Fire Country area on the other side.
Moreover, once the two ninja armies join together, the number of ninja armies under their command will be as high as five thousand. At that time, even if Konoha mobilizes a large army to attack, it will not be a fear.
But after much thought, the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon could not think of a way to safely escape contact with the Konoha Ninja Army, so he had no choice but to close his eyes and sleep.
While he was falling into a drowsy sleep, the continuous explosions outside the Ninja Army camp woke up the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon.
"Assemble the Ninja Army!"
Full of anger and anger, the fugu ghost from Watermelon Mountain rushed out of his tent with his big sword, Samehada, only to see that the Kirigakure camp was already in chaos.
To the east of the camp, explosive flames caused by detonating symbols are rising.
