Mayuri's card from Naruto

Chapter 48 Rest
Boom!

The winding lightning stretched out its claws from under the dark clouds, illuminating the black sky for a moment. The heavy rain was pouring down like water, and the rain curtain was so dense that people's faces could not be seen clearly from a few meters away.

A faint fire flickered deep inside a cave.

"Such a heavy rain should be able to wipe out our traces, right?" Looking at the heavy rain outside, Hongdou breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, her face was full of fatigue, and she looked miserable.

In just one day, they had experienced many battles. The ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village swarmed in like sharks smelling blood.

They had already wiped out three Kumogakure teams, one of which was led by a jonin, and two of which were composed entirely of chunins and elite chunins. She looked so embarrassed because she almost died in the counterattack of the Kumogakure jonin.

Fortunately, there is a powerful medical ninja like Lu Nie in the team. She also has a defensive ninjutsu called Stasis Blood Suit, which can turn fatal injuries into serious injuries, and heal serious injuries into minor injuries in a short time.

Otherwise, with her as a burden, sooner or later Kaname and Shisui would be caught up by the Cloud Ninjas that surrounded them from behind.

"We have left the territory of the Land of Fire. The next battle should be avoided unless necessary. The number of ninjas deployed by the Cloud Ninja here is simply too large." After shaking off the pursuers, Lu Nie said calmly.

There are simply too many Cloud Ninjas deployed in this area. If the encounter is delayed for some time and cannot be resolved quickly, they will soon face wave after wave of Cloud Ninja reinforcements.

"I got two pieces of information through torture." In the cave where the firelight could not reach, Shisui slowly walked out of the darkness. His eyes were blood red, and slowly faded into black after he walked out of the darkness. In the shadow of the firelight, a ninja wearing a Kumogakure forehead protector was tied up and trapped in the mountain wall.

"The main force led by the Raikage has broken through the Rain Country and is facing off against the Sand Village at the border defense line of the Sand Village. The two sides have fought many wars, and the Cloud Ninja led by the Raikage has begun to gain a great advantage.

Until a Sand Village jonin named Luosha stepped forward and delayed the Raikage's attack. "

"A jonin? Didn't the Third Kazekage disappear? Can that jonin of Rasa stop the Raikage?" Anko was a little surprised. In her opinion, the only one who could fight against the Kage of a village in a big country was the Kage of another big country.

"If nothing unexpected happens, Rasa, who inherited the Magnet Release of the Third Kazekage, will be the Fourth Kazekage." Shisui sat down by the fire and said softly.

"There is another piece of information. The Hidden Cloud Village is looting food on a large scale. These Hidden Cloud Ninjas are the team that is going to find ninja strongholds and collect food." Shisui added.

"Is the Cloud Village running out of food?" Even with Red Bean's broad mind, she was able to understand the key point from the information she extracted from Shisui during torture.

"It was the Third Raikage who led his elite troops to catch the Wind Country off guard, and they hurried all the way here. According to their plan, they wanted to take advantage of the Third Kazekage's disappearance and the moment when the Sand Village was leaderless, and the Third Raikage led the jonin to break into the heart of the Sand Village and force the Wind Country Sand Village to surrender.

The Third Raikage almost did this, but was stopped by Rasa who possessed the Magnetic Escape Technique." Shisui concluded from the information he obtained from the torture.

"Speed ​​is of the essence, but we didn't achieve our desired goal. Instead, we were dragged into a quagmire by the Sand Village. Once one part of the plan goes off track, we must use other forces to turn it back.

Kumogakure is currently short of food. If the Raikage does not want to retreat, he needs to find other supplies for the incoming ninja army before the food arrives. Who will be his target?" Lu Ni analyzed based on the information obtained by Shisui's torture.

Anko and Shisui were silent for a moment. "Rain Country!"

"The Fire Nation!"

Then, they both answered at the same time.

"Yes, only the Rain Country and the Fire Country, which are closest to the battlefield, can provide them with food. But the Rain Country itself is extremely poor. In addition to being sandwiched between the big countries and often becoming a battlefield for the confrontation between the five big countries, the rainy climate also means that they don't have much food reserves.

But the Fire Nation is different, we have the largest food reserves. If Kumogakure wants to obtain a large amount of food and wartime supplies, they can only get them from us.

In addition, I heard from Orochimaru that Hanzo of Rain Village is a stubborn old man, and he definitely doesn't want anyone to interfere in the affairs of Rain Country and Rain Village. In other words, in the confrontation between Wind Country and Lightning Country, he will not choose to stand on one side.

As long as we can confirm these, this intelligence gathering mission can be considered completed." Lu Nie said softly.

"No wonder there are so many ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village in the territory and border of the Land of Fire." Hongdou seemed to have remembered something, and a look of sudden enlightenment appeared on her face.

"But Konoha Village's food and supplies are all at the border defense stations, right? If they want to obtain a large amount of food, wouldn't those defense stations be their primary target?" Shisui's face suddenly became much uglier.

"It's very likely that it has already happened, but we are not qualified to access this kind of information yet." Lu Nie shook his head, looked at Shisui and asked with certainty: "The Raikage was dragged to the battlefield of Sunagakure, so who led the invasion of the Land of Fire?"

Shisui thought about it carefully in his mind, and said uncertainly: "From the other party's memory, they are two young jonin who are very close to the Raikage."

Can the future Fourth Generation Ai compete with Eight-Tails?
Lu Nie immediately identified the suspect.

"Then do we need to go for support?" Hongdou clenched her fists.

"Hasn't Senior Minato already led his men there?" Lu Nie rolled his eyes at Hong Dou. As expected, the Abby team and Minato's multiple battles will take place during this period of time in the future.

Minato Namikaze's mobility makes his support and combat capabilities second to none. He can quickly rush over to support after an attack occurs at a site.

"Take a rest, and take advantage of this rare environment to recover your strength as quickly as possible. I think we will have to go through more battles in the future." Lu Nie took out a storage scroll from his body and opened it, releasing the detonating tags, kunai, shuriken and other war supplies inside, and distributed them to Shisui and Red Bean to make up for the losses.

After doing all this in silence, Hongdou and Kane closed their eyes and began to rest, while Shisui was responsible for the first round of defense.

Lu Nie immersed his consciousness in his mind and awakened the panel with a sense of urgency.
