Konoha Thief

Chapter 410 Waiting for the signal

Half a decade passed in a flash, and the practice of Natsuki's sage mode finally broke through 1 minute. Although it was still far from the 5 minutes that symbolized the success of the practice, it had not yet reached the level where he could use the celestial chakra to fight against the enemy, but the accumulated experience in the process The scale of experience and mastery is also very important to him.

And at this moment, the signal he was waiting for to start the incident finally appeared.

……

The victory of the Battle of the Kannabi Bridge laid the foundation for Konoha to successfully block the offensive against Iwagakure. Without the key channel of the Kannabi Bridge, the only remaining convenient channel for Iwagakure to attack the Kingdom of Fire is The country of rain.

In the previous Second Ninja World War, the scene of multi-party melee in the Land of Rain is still vivid in my mind.

In that war, many strong men in the ninja world became famous, and Konoha, under the leadership of the Third Hokage, repelled the enemy's attack, once again confirming Konoha's number one status in the ninja world.

Therefore, for Yan Yin, the channel of the Kingdom of Rain has equal advantages and disadvantages, especially the fact that the Kingdom of Rain and the power of Yuyin Village exist.

Therefore, Iwakage's threat to Konoha is no longer great. Although Iwakage's Tsuchikage has a profound resentment towards Konoha, in the face of an unprofitable war, even Tsuchikage can't stand up to everyone's opinions.

What's more, the position of Tuying is not only a right, but also a responsibility. Even as stubborn as Onoki, he has to be responsible to the villagers of Yanyin Village.

The threat of Iwagakure dropped sharply, and Konoha's attention shifted. Compared with the battlefield of Yuno Country, which had been maintained to a certain extent, the eastern battlefield of Kirigakure's attack undoubtedly required more attention.

Therefore, the troops transferred back from Yanyin were sent to the east battlefield after a period of rest, and the person who led these Konoha ninjas was Orochimaru.

But the signal Xia Shu was waiting for was not Orochimaru, even though Orochimaru had something he wanted on him.

That signal was Kakashi Hatake, or more accurately, Rin Nohara, Rin Nohara who was about to rush to Kirigakure.

As for Nohara Rin being implanted by Kirigakure into Mio Isota and then committing suicide by Kakashi’s Raikiri, or the matter of Kirigakure Seven Ninja Swordsmen, which one happened earlier, there is no clear explanation in the original book, but relying on It is not difficult to make a judgment based on the analysis of known information.

In fact, just thinking about one question is enough to solve the problem, that is, whether the Seven Ninja Swordsmen who can fight together and can match or even defeat the Kage-level powerhouse can destroy the entire Konoha with their own strength.

The answer is obvious, of course it is impossible.

Seven ninja swords come out together and claim to have the combat power to destroy a country, but just like Chiyo of Sand Hidden, manipulating ten people in Chimatsu can destroy a country, but this one country refers to the fact that there is no ninja village power, or ninja A country where the power of the village is not worth mentioning.

As for a great ninja village like Konoha, even if it is empty inside, it is absolutely impossible to destroy it with the power of seven ninja swordsmen.

So Kirigakure's plan logically should be to wait for Rin Nohara to return to Konoha first, triggering Mio Isao to run away, destroying Konoha from the inside, and at the same time, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen who quietly came outside Konoha took advantage of the chaos , to complete the task they carry, which is nothing more than a beheading operation.

Therefore, Natsuki doesn't need to pay attention to Matt Kai, Shiranui Genma, and Ebisu who caused Matt Dai to directly face the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. He only needs to pay attention to Hatake Kakashi and Nohara Rin to get the waiting signal. .

And now the signal has appeared.

……

root base.

Danzo Office.

The dim candlelight illuminated half of Danzo's face, and the shadow projected on the wall was distorted and hideous. With the slight shaking of the candlelight, there was an inexplicable depressive atmosphere in the room.

Natsuki didn't feel depressed, he was just waiting for Danzo's inquiry, because at this moment he had already handed over the piece of information about Kirigakure's possible future movements to Danzo for review, and he knew that Danzo Zang is so scheming that he can't fail to see the hidden meaning he wants to express.

However, the waiting inquiry never came, and Danzo skipped this step and gave him orders.

"You will lead the team and go to the eastern battlefield immediately. The possibility of crossing the sea to Kirigakure is not ruled out. You can adjust your actions according to the situation. In short, I want a clear report on Kirigakure's movements." Danzo put down Natsuki and sent it information, ordered with a serious face.

"Yes, Danzo-sama." Xia Shu responded quickly, and immediately said: "I want the oil girl Ryoma and Yamanakakaze to act together. They are my most familiar companions, and their abilities are good at infiltration and sneaking. It will be of great help."

Hearing the reasons explained by Natsuki, Danzo hesitated for a moment, then nodded concisely: "Yes."

"Then I'll get ready."

Xia Shu heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Of course, he didn't value the ability of Yuyue Ryoma and Yamanakakaze to infiltrate and spy on information, but with these two, he would relieve a lot of pressure on dealing with the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

After returning home to organize his equipment, he soon returned to the root base. At this time, the oil girl Ryoma and Shan Zhongfeng had also arrived, waiting for him to set off together.

Facing the two pairs of eyes, Xia Shu said directly: "Have you already understood the task?"

The two nodded in agreement.

Xia Shu nodded in satisfaction, then shouted in a low voice: "In that case... let's go!"

As a result, the three figures suddenly disappeared in place, and shot into the depths of the special channel at the root like arrows, and disappeared in an instant.

……

The Land of Fire, the battlefield to the east.

Kirigakure is good at water escape, and the humid environment has increased the strength of Kirigakure ninjas. However, Kirigakure implements the blood mist policy. Although most of the elites cultivated by Kirigakure, the number is not large, only slightly stronger than Sand Yin.

So when Konoha's northwest battlefield gradually fell silent, Konoha's troops were transferred to the Yunokuni battlefield and the east battlefield, especially the more tense east battlefield, and Kirigakure's original steady advance suddenly fell into a decline. .

In the rear camp of the eastern battlefield, Natsuki saw Orochimaru.

In the spacious tent, Orochimaru still had that gloomy look, but after seeing Natsuki, he seemed very happy.

After confirming that Orochimaru's happiness is not the way he looks at his prey, Natsuki is a little relieved. This is because he is a bit persecuted and delusional. After all, there is not much about him that Orochimaru should care about.

Orochimaru looked at Natsuki with a pale face and said with a smile: "Long time no see, Natsuki-kun."

I have to say that Orochimaru is a very charming man, and his deep and hoarse voice even has a feeling of illusion.

Of course, it's just a feeling. A person who can say such profound words as "like you met that flower, like I met you", resorting to magic to charm, really forcibly lowers the style of Orochimaru.
