Konoha's Destiny Twins

A temporary camp in Konoha on the southwest border of the Country of Fire. About 100 Konoha ninjas are stationed here.

When Qing Shui first arrived here and became familiar with the general environment, he began to read the detailed information of all the ninjas here.

However, the configuration of these people was far from what he imagined.

When Orochimaru sent two brigades of ninjas here, he thought they were all elite ninjas who had experienced the Third Ninja War. However, after he looked through the list, he found that more than half of them were genin? !

This gap...

Qingshui can understand that Konoha is in a difficult situation now, so there is no need to "hide the truth" with a squad leader plus two or even three genin, right? !

He, Orochimaru, can answer the question when facing the "anti-war faction", but how should we fight the battle here?

The number of people themselves is at an absolute disadvantage, but now they don't even have an advantage in terms of quality.

Orochimaru, you are really going to give me a hard time.

"Did you find anything today?" Qing Shui asked.

Before he came, the day-to-day affairs of this expeditionary force were in charge of a middle-aged ninja from the Hyuga family. He was an elite ninja who had experienced two ninja wars.

His name is Hyuga Hizashi, and he is also the younger brother of the current head of the Hyuga clan.

"Kirigakure's appearance at the border has become more and more frequent recently." Hyuga Hizashi replied, "This is not an accident. It should be a final reconnaissance for the war of aggression. I think they will take action in the near future."

It seems that Kirigakure is almost ready for war.

"Which area is it?"

Hizashi pointed to a spot on the map and explained: "The terrain here is relatively open and flat, which is indeed suitable for large troops to pass through."

He quickly added: "It will also make it easier for subsequent supplies to catch up quickly."

Konoha's ability to know Kirigakure's movements so accurately has a lot to do with the Hyuga clan.

With the help of Byakugan's unparalleled insight, Konoha can always discover the whereabouts of Kirigakure in advance, and then with the cooperation of Aburame and the Inuzuka clan, they can completely hide their whereabouts while learning the information.

So Kirigakure didn't know that Konoha had already learned about their invasion plan, and had dispatched an expedition team to the border area between the two countries early.

"An army of about 1000 people..." Qing Shui murmured to himself, thinking about countermeasures.

Judging from the scale of the Third Ninja World War, an army of 1000 people was not a large number. However, after the war, when everything was in ruins, Kirigakure was able to mobilize a full 1000 ninja troops to carry out war operations. , which shows how much determination and courage they have exerted.

Before the troops and horses move, food and fodder go first. If you can cut off the opponent's supply line at the beginning of the war, you can have a considerable advantage. There were many such actual combat cases in the Third Ninja War.

"Can you concentrate on raiding their supply lines?"

"I'm afraid it's difficult." Hizashi shook his head and continued to explain, "One of the ninjas in charge of their logistics is a ninja named Ao."

"He has supercilious eyes."

The existence of white eyes means that the raid has become a phantom.

After Kirigakure's logistics troops discover the enemy's situation for the first time, they can easily choose to retreat or stand firm and wait for reinforcements.

"That's really troublesome."

Then the only possibility is to find a way to severely damage the 1000-man army in an instant. In this case, the first and most likely solution to be considered is to damage the opponent's morale.

"My suggestion is to behead the commander of Kirigakure's force." Hizashi suggested.

"If we want to behead him, Minato will have to come."

Only the flying thunder god's technique can truly come and go without a trace. Although Qingshui's speed is also superb, if the opponent sets up some kind of barrier or even a large-scale ninjutsu, he may be held back by the opponent or even get into a hard fight. .

"This is not a problem. One of Minato's flying thunder formation teams is here now."

This was during the Third Ninja War. In order to better realize mobile combat, Minato trained several teams that could jointly perform the "Flying Thunder Formation Technique". When the members of these teams formed a formation, they could Objects or people within the formation move to any corner of the battlefield.

Relying on this miraculous space ninjutsu, these teams also shined in the Third Ninja War.

"Shiranui Genma, Azurai, and Tie Iwashi, come in."

"Yes." I saw three people entering the camp in unison, "Senior Yue Yue, senior Hizashi."

Two of the three are Konoha's current chuunin, while the remaining Iwaki is a genin.

Orochimaru made a good move, he actually asked Minato to bring in such a flying thunder formation team.

However, although he was able to get in without anyone noticing, he was still pessimistic about the beheading operation, so he could only shake his head and reject the proposal: "No."

"Why?" Hizashi waited for so long just to wait for the arrival of a powerful ninja like Qingshui.

At the same time, this is why for so many days, even if there were several good attack opportunities, he still told Konoha not to act rashly and to maintain absolute secrecy, just to wait for Qingshui to arrive and then implement this plan to create the most perfect conditions. .

"Based on my understanding of Kirigakure, simply killing the commander will not cause them panic and confusion."

"After all, they are a village called the Blood Mist."

In Kirigakure Village, every ninja has experienced the test of life and death, blood and fire. Sometimes the death of the commander will even cause them to have a greater backlash.

Of course, the more important reason is that on the day Qingshui was discharged from the hospital, he finally received a black letter from Kirigakure, which was information sent by his agent under Kirigakure.

It turned out that the information had been sent out a long time ago, but it took a lot of time to penetrate into Konoha and finally send it to Qingshui.

Especially when Shimizu was in Konoha Hospital, no one could enter his ward.

The intelligence of the black letter shows that the personnel of this unit are almost all militants from Kirigakure. After gaining the support of public opinion in Kirigakure Village, they have already shouted the slogan "We will not return to the village until we recapture the Three-Tails". They can also Said it was a death squad.

And killing their commander will only make them more insane and lose the chance of peace talks.

This is one of the reasons why Shimizu must ask Orochimaru to borrow the Three-Tails. In his opinion, only the Three-Tails can perfectly solve the hidden danger of Kirigakure.

Of course, if Shisui is here at this stage, the beheading operation also has a certain meaning, because as long as the commander on the opposite side can be completely controlled, there is still a chance for peace talks.

But now there is nothing, and the enemy who is far superior to their strength is already on the line.

All that can be done is containment.
