Konoha Steady King

Shimura Danzo's sadness and pain are not known to outsiders. If Hayama learns the news, he will teach her another lesson no matter what. Don't get me wrong, it is just a simple lesson, not a lesson involving colors.

To be precise, Hayama didn't care about anything happening in the outside world at this time. All his energy was put on Platycodon Castle. Even though he knew that his efforts would probably not be recognized by Konoha, it did not affect his continued efforts. .

It has nothing to do with the boring Will of Fire. Hayama's motivation for doing this is just so that Konoha can have fewer dead ninjas in the next ninja war. Even a three-year-old child understands the truth that eggs cannot be completed when the nest is overturned.

This afternoon, the second afternoon after Hayama arrived at Platycodon Castle, all the defensive ninjas gathered in a square in the city, waiting for pre-battle training.

Since they have not experienced war for a long time, most ninjas will inevitably feel panic when they suddenly face a war in the ninja world. This has nothing to do with the strength of their personal strength. There are countless examples of ninjas dying on the battlefield, no matter how strong they are. It is about the lack of human beings. After personally experiencing the baptism of blood and hatred, one will more or less resist meaningless fighting.

Yes, this battle is meaningless in the eyes of most Konoha ninjas. Its cause is just an unfounded speculation from Sunagakure Village without any strong evidence to support it, but it is still right in front of you.

On a temporary earthen platform, Hayama and Nara Shikazune stood side by side. In front of them were more than 300 Konoha ninjas with solemn faces.

The atmosphere on the field was very subtle and solemn. Ye Shan even saw many people taking out the amulets they carried with them from their clothes and praying, which made him feel a little dazed.

Once upon a time, he was still a lowly chuunin, and he prayed to the gods and Buddhas in the sky before the war, praying that he could survive until the end of the war.

To be honest, the act of praying has no effect at all. It can only enhance the psychological endurance of the person praying, but it cannot actually bring good luck.There will be no shortage of enemies that should be encountered, traps that should be stepped on will not disappear, and even death will not be avoided by praying.

Hayama has long been aware of this, so he threw away the useless amulet and started practicing ninjutsu and taijutsu hard. In this cruel ninja world, even the gods have to be bombarded by several ninjutsu when they come down. Please ask them It's just a temporary peace of mind.

Nararu has experienced two ninja wars and has seen far more death and sorrow than a young man named Hayama.As the saying goes, you stand at thirty and remain unconcerned at forty. Nara Shikatsune is over 40 years old this year. He has his own view of right and wrong regarding the various situations in the world. He knows what the ninjas below are thinking and seeking. .

Now the small Platycodon City has suddenly become a point of contention between the two big powers. This competition is not short-lived, but protracted. The ninjas standing below are all worried about whether they will die here.

Although the geographical location of Platycodon City is dangerous, it is still a dead object and does not have the ability to be transferred at any time.And it happens that the ninja profession is best at flexible combat, focusing on sneaking, assassination, and destruction. It is really inappropriate to use it to defend a city.

Nara Shikatsuki dismissed the many distracting thoughts in his mind and scanned the ninja standing below with his sharp eyes. His voice was thick and powerful, making people involuntarily feel at ease after listening to it.

"Everyone, Konoha Ninja Village has now reached the most critical moment in the past ten years. Behind Platycodon City is the country that gave birth to and raised us. Once we take a step back here, the village and the country will take a hundred steps back. You said you can take a step back. Later?"

"No." Although the voice was generous, it sounded lacking in confidence.

Nara Shika often doesn't care whether the confidence in his voice is sufficient. The strength of his confidence comes from his strength. Just talking about it has no effect.

"I know what you are thinking and worried about. All you think is that Platycodon Castle is difficult to defend, and you think that Sunagakure Village has a large number of people and comes with hatred. Although Platycodon Castle is dangerous, it is difficult to do so with such a small manpower. Hold on, everyone will die by then."

"Of course I know that you are not afraid of death. Everyone here is an outstanding ninja in Konoha Ninja Village and can stand the test. I can tell you in person that tomorrow night at most, thousands of people led by Lord Orochimaru will Reinforcements will arrive at Platycodon City! Everyone, Lord Hokage has not forgotten us. He has been paying close attention to our lives and lives. Now tell me, will you step back?"

"No!!!" The voice was loud and clear at the same time, and even a fool could hear the excitement in his words.

Nara Shikazune nodded with satisfaction and continued: "There are sufficient food reserves in Kikyo City, and ninja tools and medical supplies are piled up in mountains. Since yesterday afternoon, someone has set up a large number of traps according to my request. Now there are traps around the city. It will take the Sand Ninjas half a day to unpack the package!"

"What's more, we have Hayama in charge. As long as we work together and perform our duties, Platycodon City cannot be lost in a short time."

"When Lord Orochimaru arrives with reinforcements, our mission will be successfully completed, and you will all be great contributors to Konoha Village by then!"

Hayama watched Nara Shikakune's inspiring approach with cold eyes. He didn't say anything on the surface, but he admired him in his heart. He was indeed the former Hokage's think tank, and his method of manipulating people's hearts was very unusual.

Is Kikyo Castle really as easy to defend as Nara Shikawa often says?The answer is undoubtedly no.

The sand ninjas are not fools. Even if there are traps around Platycodon Castle, a collective Earth Release Ninjutsu will overturn them all. Who would be so stupid as to send out a ninja team to dismantle them bit by bit with their butts stuck out?

Therefore, the only support of Platycodon City is the numerous bed crossbows at the top of the city. This thing can fire five extremely sharp crossbow arrows. Each crossbow arrow can be attached with up to ten detonating symbols. Not only is it incredibly fast and difficult to dodge, it is also incredibly powerful. , once affected, the skin will peel off even if you die.

The bed crossbow used by ninjas is naturally different from the one used by samurai. It only looks like a bed crossbow. As for the bowstring, hammer and other parts, it is replaced by a series of runes.The launch of the crossbow is very simple. It requires ninjas above Chuunin to input chakra into the technique, and then the huge force generated will shoot out the crossbow arrows, thus causing damage to the enemy.

Hayama had never seen this extremely lethal weapon in the past. It could be called the ninja world's version of the Italian cannon, which made him change his face when he heard it.

All in all, Platycodon Castle is very difficult to defend. The original intention of building this city was to be used as a huge warehouse. Its purpose of existence was to provide logistical support for the large number of ninjas on the front line, and it was by no means a military fortress that could be defended.

This is a matter of course. Ninjas are very mobile and require them to stay in one place and defend passively. Isn't this as brain-hemorrhaging as using cavalry to defend a city?

The two warring parties square off at a short distance, and engage in one or two collective battles from time to time. As for assassinations, sneak sabotage, sneak attacks and other activities mixed in, this is the way of ninja combat.
