Juggernaut of the Moonlight Family

Chapter 372 Unexpected Hidden Rock

Just before dawn is always the darkest hour.

This is also the time when people are most sleepy.

This is especially true for the Konoha ninjas who were tortured just two or three hours ago.

The scene depicted in the story "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" has also happened to many people.

Although most of them are well-trained ninjas.

Even those weather-beaten ninjas are like this, and a rookie like Obito can be imagined.

"These damned Iwakaku ninjas..."

Opening his hazy eyes, he muttered a word in dissatisfaction, and Obito closed his eyes again.

Kakashi who was beside him had already gotten up with difficulty, but after seeing Obito, after struggling for a second, he also fell down.

'It must be another false signal deliberately released by those Iwagakure ninjas to prevent us from resting. '

The moment his head hit the pillow, he also found a perfect reason for himself in his heart.

. . .

While the Konoha ninjas in Kikyo Castle were still suffering from difficulty getting out of bed, the Konoha ninjas on Kikyo Mountain were experiencing a storm-like attack from the Iwagakure ninjas.

Except for the team with white eyes who noticed something was wrong at the beginning and released a signal flare to notify Kikyo City, the other patrol teams did not finally understand what happened until they encountered the siege of the Iwagakure ninjas.

But at this time, it was obviously not that easy for them to launch flares.

With several jounin squads from Iwagakure taking the lead, many of the Konoha patrols who had also become less vigilant due to Iwagakure's harassment over the past few days were assassinated without even having a chance to take out the flares.

However, among the more than ten patrol teams in Konoha, four of them, either because of their vigilance or because they were slightly stronger, released signal flares in time to notify Platycodon City.

. . .

If there were Konoha ninjas who felt that this was a replay of Iwain’s old trick when the second flare was raised, obviously no one dared to have such an idea when the third and fourth flares were raised up.

"problem occurs!"

Even a rookie like Obito, with a big heart, immediately had this idea in his mind.

This time, even without the notification from the ninjas like Hatake Sakumo, all the Konoha ninjas ran out.

As the strongest Konoha among the five hidden villages, he is indeed worthy of the name of being the strongest. In less than a quarter of an hour, thousands of ninjas in Kikyo City had assembled.

But they didn't take a step out of Platycodon Castle, even Hatake Sakumo and many other jounin.

Everyone is on the alert.

Waiting for the impact of Yan Yin's army.

As for the many ninjas in Platycodon Mountain, at this time, it is obviously impossible to rescue them.

The cruelty of the battlefield is finally revealed.

In order to defend the last checkpoint in front of Konoha, the dozens of ninjas in the mountain had no choice but to sacrifice.

. . .

If Yan Yin's goal is Kikyo Castle, then when they come to kill them, they will probably face the reef hit by the waves and stand still.

The Konoha ninja in Kikyo Castle also has such strong self-confidence.

But unfortunately, from the very beginning, Yan Yin's goal was not Kikyo Castle.

It was another quarter of an hour, but still no Iwagakure ninjas rushed out of Kikyo Mountain, as if nothing had happened, and those flares just now were just their hallucinations.

The Konoha ninjas who were waiting in battle were already filled with anxiety.

"Watergate."

Hatake Sakumo, who was far more restless than the others, could not wait any longer.

"Yes."

Knowing the purpose of Hatake Sakumo's call at this time, Namikaze Minato immediately lowered his head in response. The moment his body disappeared from the place, a special kunai fell to the ground.

Many Konoha ninjas who didn't know what happened, or that Namikaze Minato had gone to investigate the situation, finally couldn't help but whisper.

Fortunately, in this world where one person's strength is enough to crush a group of people, although they couldn't help but pour out their anxiety and worries to each other, no one dared to act recklessly.

Even Kakashi and other children, who were on the battlefield for the first time, did not dare to move around under the orders of their respective Chunin and Jonin.

"laugh!"

Another half an hour passed, and when the junin couldn't help but began to use words to cover up and ease the tension in their hearts, with a soft sound, Namikaze Minato's figure appeared in the Kunai left behind by him. beside.

"Minato, how's it going?!"

Knowing that he was being stared at by countless pairs of eyes, Hatake Sakumo, who had kept a stern face and never talked to relieve tension like others, finally couldn't hold back his anxious heart anymore after seeing his figure. Hastily asked with a look of worry and expectation.

But the serious and dignified look on Minato's face made Hatake Sakumo couldn't help but feel a "thump" in his heart, and he had a bad premonition.

"Master Shuo Mo, the situation is not right."

Sure enough, the next moment, the moment Minato opened his mouth, it was bad news.

"Iwagakure quickly passed through Mount Kikyo and headed towards the Country of Grass."

"The Country of Grass?!"

The jonin who were also listening sideways couldn't help but exclaimed before Hatake Sakumo could speak.

Not to mention them, even any commoner in Konoha Village knows that in the direction of the country of grass, the Konoha army led by Jiraiya is confronting Iwagakure.

"Do they want to attack Jiraiya-sama and the others?!"

Everyone realized that the situation was developing against them.

"Master Shuo Mao, we can't wait any longer, let's set off to pursue immediately."

Many anxious jounin couldn't help but began to advise Hatake Sakumo.

"Minato, if I want to trouble you again, go back to the village immediately and report the news to the Sandaime-sama."

But Sakumo, whose bad premonition came true, calmed down, ignored the suggestion of pursuit, and said to Minato with a little apology.

Knowing that it would be a waste of time to say one more word at this time, Minato didn't say anything, just nodded, and his figure disappeared in place again.

"Inform the others, rest immediately where they are, and wait for Minato to bring back the order from Lord III."

"Lord Sakumo!"

Others couldn't help feeling that Shuo Mao was too hesitant when they heard the words, and many couldn't help but want to persuade him again.

After all, although Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique is fast, it takes at least ten minutes to come and go, plus informing the Sandaime and the Sandaime to make a decision.

But in their view, Konoha can't afford to delay even a minute now.

"This is an order."

But Hatake Sakumo's attitude was also very tough and could not be refused.

"Hey!"

Seeing his resolute attitude, these Junin could only sigh in their hearts, and at the same time inform them of the news.
