Konoha no Wanderer

The border of the country of Taki.

"Attention all enemy attack brigade"

Following Dodai's order, Shiraishi followed the captain of the Guards and stopped.

Due to being tricked by Luo Sha at first, the main force was attacked by Konoha without elites, and nearly 400 lives were lost.

After joining the Raikage's rear troops, Dodai decided to change the rear troops into a reconnaissance unit, responsible for clearing the enemy on the retreat route for the large army.

Moreover, the commander has changed from the Raikage to himself, and the Raikage-sama sits in the main force to intimidate the enemy's elite squad.

Everyone had basically formed a conditioned reflex after hearing the enemy attack, and the troops deployed various tactical formations with incredible efficiency.

But the troops, who always looked extremely elite, had a look of numbness on everyone's face.

How many times has this happened? The tenth time, the 20th time, or the 30th time.

No one remembers it, because most of the people who used to record it have died, and the remaining people can't remember it clearly.

Ten of the 200 people who were originally in charge of the rear were dead, and even nearly ten elite members of the Raikage's bodyguards were dead.And those who survived, every one of them stood in front of the investigation team like a Shura.

The smell of blood emanating from these dozen people was difficult for even the compatriots Cloud Ninja to accept.

They are really killing machines that survived by stepping on other people's corpses in a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

In the past few months, under the command of Todai, Shiraishi, who was responsible for cleaning up the enemy troops, had fought no less than twenty or thirty encounters.The large one can have a scale of nearly a hundred people, while the small one can only be harassed by a few people.

In short, the original force of nearly 2000 people is now reduced to less than 1000 people, and the mortality rate has exceeded a terrifying 50.00%.

Moments after the order, countless troops dressed as Iwa Ninja gradually appeared on the empty plain.It was so dark that it was impossible to estimate the approximate number.

"Everyone, return to the main force. Kitayama Xiong goes and informs Lord Raikage to come over." Todai's eyes showed a hint of determination, and then he said softly: "Shiraishi stays."

What is left to do

Shiraishi watched everyone continue to evacuate in an orderly manner. After a few breaths, only the Sandaime Raikage, the commander Dodai and himself were left.

"Boy."

The Third Raikage faced the wall of people and said with his back to Shiraishi.

"Do you still remember our conversation that night?"

"grown ups......"

Shiraishi, who was already extremely mentally numb, stiffly wanted to reply to Raikage's inquiry.But before he could finish organizing his words, Raikage interrupted his thoughts.

"Todai, I want Shiraishi alive."

Tudai was obviously stunned, looked at Shiraishi and couldn't help but said: "Lord Raikage, this"

"I want him alive"

"Yes, Raikage-sama."

"...I disappoint you, Tutai."

Dodai looked at the back of the Third Raikage, with a look of pain and helplessness in his eyes.

"No, this is what Raikage-sama should be like."

"I'm sorry, Shiraishi boy."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Sandaime Raikage turned around and struck Shiraishi's abdomen with a palm. The palm was struck so fast that Shiraishi had no time to react. He only felt a pain and numbness in his abdomen, and then his whole body was knocked away.

The earthen platform on the other side was obviously ready.

Melting Escape Protective Jade

Shiraishi, whose muscles were all paralyzed by the thunder-type chakra, was directly wrapped in an earth-yellow rubber ball in the air.The Raikage followed closely behind and kicked the rubber ball hard. The rubber ball first showed obvious deformation, and then flew away from the battlefield at an extremely fast speed.

"Tutai, you go and command the retreat. Leave this place to me."

"Yes."

The tens of thousands of Yanyin troops on the opposite side were obviously very concerned about the rubber ball. As soon as they sent a few people out to intercept it, they saw a giant man covered in light blue chakra throwing it at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye. Several Iwagakure who rushed towards the rubber ball were instantly killed.

The earth platform directly dissolved into a flow of earthy yellow mud and disappeared on the battlefield.

"That guy Ohnoki didn't come. Why, maybe he looks down on me, the Third Raikage."

The Sandaime Raikage, who was standing next to several Iwagakure corpses, faced the army of ten thousand people in front of him with an expressionless face. He moved his neck slightly and continued: "It is better to say that your Tsuchikage-sama is scared."

There have been no missions for several months, and Yumu's only job is to wait for the mission in a secret stronghold with considerable strength.

These few months have made Yukito realize the practical significance of his coming to the front line.

She was not treated as a ninja, but as a strategic weapon.The only purpose of coming here is to prevent jinchūriki from other villages from intervening in the battlefield.

I don't know what happened to Shiraishi and Kirabi. I was sorting out my ninja tool bag in boredom, and Yukito was worried in my heart.

"After receiving the mission from superiors, everyone retreats to the border of the Country of Thunder."

A special jounin came to the stronghold and placed a small scroll on the table, then disappeared.

Not only Yukito, but all the Kumo ninja present were obviously shocked by the news.

What's going on? Why is a withdrawal order issued when the situation of the war is not yet clear?

Konoha, roots.

Danzo looked at a war report in his hand, his slightly opened eyes looking a little dissatisfied.

"Kumogakure Village officially stated that the rebel ninja leaked information, which exposed the marching route of the Third Raikage's troops. Later, they were robbed and killed by an army of ten thousand Iwa ninjas, and the Third Raikage was confirmed to have died of exhaustion."

"Dodai temporarily took over the position of acting Raikage, and pointed out that the Raikage's death was caused by the betrayal of an outside ninja. The rumors originally planned in Kumogakure Village against the Raikage's prestige were invalidated."

"Kumogakure Village did not fall into chaos due to the death of the Third Raikage. The son of the Third Raikage quickly succeeded the Raikage and became the Fourth Raikage."

"Toutai guided public opinion and attributed the mistake to the betrayal of the rebel ninja and the shamelessness of Iwagakure. The fourth generation Raikage won the support of the vast majority of the Kumogakure family and Kumogakure civilians through his speech."

"Yinyin Village announced that the traitor Shiraishi was an S-class traitor, with a bounty of 7000 million."

"It is impossible to collect any detailed information about the S-class rebel ninja Shiraishi in a short period of time. Cloud Hidden Village seems to have implemented an information blockade on him. Sunagakure Village refuses to share information about Shiraishi with us. We want to obtain information about the rebel ninja Shiraishi. , it will take a while.”

"Iwagakure did not abide by the previous agreement and continued to invade the border of the Land of Fire."

"Hmph, since the Sandaime Raikage is dead, then the cooperation with Iwagakure ends here." Danzo raised his right hand slightly, and several root members immediately appeared in front of him.

"From now on, all Iwagakure who appear on the border of the Land of Fire will be killed."

"As for that traitorous ninja, he is just a scapegoat. Let the intelligence personnel responsible for Kumogakure pay attention to it. There is no need to waste manpower on investigating it."

Konoha, Naruto Office.

"The basic information about Kumogakure's S-class rebel Shiraishi is only some inaccurate information from when he first entered Kumogakure Village three years ago, and there is no picture of his appearance."

"Anymore."

"The current information can only infer that this person was directly under the Raikage's personal guard."

"Okay, back off."

"Yes."

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood in front of the glass window as usual, looking at the Leaf Village below him. He smoked the cigarette bag, and the wrinkles between his eyebrows became more and more numerous.

The war is not over yet, and he already feels a little powerless.

Even though the Kumogakure Village has returned to the Kingdom of Thunder, after the accidental death of the Third Raikage was perfectly exploited by Todai, almost all members of the Kumogakure Village have become the main fighting faction. Kumogakure's secret troops often appear on the border of the Fire Country. Konoha's logistics were harassed endlessly, so Konoha had to invest corresponding high-end combat power to contend with it.

The Iwa Ninjas also suddenly devoted more troops to attack Konoha.

Sunagakure's Chiyo and Garura appeared on the front line, and Sunagakure Village seemed to have reached some consensus with Iwagakure Village.

Tsunade was unable to fight, Jiraiya was nowhere to be seen after months of searching, and Orochimaru was in charge of the defense of Konoha Village itself.

The Sannin of Konoha, who had obviously gained fame during the Second Ninja War, were unable to go to the battlefield due to various reasons.

Konoha's top combat power is not enough.

If it were at the beginning

White Fang, is this your revenge on me?

Looking at the plants and trees of Konoha Village through the window, Sarutobi Hiruzen murmured to himself: "Is Konoha going to compromise in my hands?"
