The next morning, Kamui did not wait for Bai Lian's messenger.

It was already three o'clock in the morning, and not even a ghost was seen.

The ninja on Hinata's side opened his Byakugan and observed the surroundings. He passed through the woods and gentle slopes and saw a village with strong walls.

"How is it?" Shenwei asked him.

He shook his head and answered truthfully, "The defenses over there are set up, and it seems they refuse to talk."

Of course, this was within their expectations. In the eyes of the ninjas of the Kingdom of Water, what was the difference between them and the invasion? They would go to war anyway. Dialogue or no dialogue had no meaning at all.

"They are not going to resolve it peacefully."

Isn't this nonsense? If someone changes people to attack Konoha, and when the troops approach the city, it is impossible for Konoha to just surrender.

Kamui glanced at the sky and directed everyone to head into the mountains.

Kamui's combat policy is different from Uchiha Madara's. He is the kind who tells you all the benefits in advance and sets a timeline. If you don't accept it within the specified time, he will not do anything again. If you have any concerns, you can fight openly.

There are not many ninjas left in the villages in the mountains of the Kingdom of Water. If Kamui wants to force his way in, it will not be difficult, plus he himself has a trump card that no one knows about.

Bai Lian was indeed forced to the end this time.

The mountains of the Kingdom of Water were surrounded by mist, and there were many traps along the way. However, with the Byakugan and Inuzuka family ninjas there, although the progress was slowed down a bit, luckily we got in without any danger.

There are many cliffs in the mountains, and the homes of the ninjas are between the cliffs and valleys. They even built stone walls. I don't know if it is to prevent wild beasts from raiding or to prevent ninja attacks.

This was probably the predecessor of Kirigakure Village.

Kamui looked at the stone wall sandwiched between the two mountains from a distance. Compared with the Fifth Mizukage period, it was a bit crude now, but it was somewhat useful if he wanted to stop some wild beasts.

The ninjas on the stone wall had seen the Konoha ninja stationed a hundred meters away. After reporting it to Byakuren, Byakuren didn't seem surprised.

There is really no need to be surprised. Konoha is bound to win this time, and it will be a matter of time before they break into the mountains.

The patrolling ninjas did not have Bai Lian's concentration. They broke out in cold sweat and were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

"The man they headed wearing a Yaksha mask said he wants to see you and has something to say."

Bai Lian had already guessed what Kamui wanted to say. He narrowed his eyes and turned to look at the ghost lamp Zangyue beside him, and asked: "How is the thing I asked you to do before? Do you have a reply?"

Gui Deng Can Yue's face froze, "Teacher, even though the psychic beast is here, the reply to the letter must not be so fast."

"..."

"Besides," Gui Deng Can Yue couldn't help but frown, he hesitated for a while and said, "I think it's better not to put our hope in others. At this time, I'm afraid that water from far away can't quench the thirst for near. Moreover, how can outsiders be reliable? Woolen cloth?"

Yes, of course Bai Lian understands this truth, but under the current predicament, it was just a decision he made with the attitude of giving it a try.

Even though I knew in my heart that it might be useless, there was still a trace of luck.

"We must delay as much time as possible. One more day is another day. The longer you delay, the greater your chance of winning."

"But..." Ghost Lantern Chanyue obviously disagreed with Bai Lian's statement.

Last night, he had gone to the logistics department overnight to check the ninja tools and other supplies stored in the warehouse. Although the money came from his employer, after more than two years of fighting on the front line, their deficits were getting bigger and bigger, and foreign aid was Under the premise of cutting off, they are almost sitting on nothing.

If they just procrastinate blindly and put their only chance of victory on those who are uncertain, their prospects will be very bleak.

Bai Lian has lived for so many years, and his experience is naturally no less than that of a student. He has already seen what Gui Deng Can Yue is worried about.

The empty tea cup was placed heavily on the table, making a crisp sound. This sound was very scary in such an anxious atmosphere.

The patrolling ninja who came to report had a very poor psychological quality. This sound made him tremble unconsciously, and even Ghost Cangetsu, who had been following Bai Lian, turned pale.

The two of them secretly looked at Bai Lian tremblingly. The old man's face was calm, but his slightly furrowed brows still revealed his inner worries.

"Half a month, we can only delay for half a month at most. If there is still no news after half a month, then the only two options left are death or surrender to Konoha."

With most of the main players absent, the hope of winning is extremely slim.

During the Warring States Period, it was an extremely common thing for a ninja clan to disappear into the long river of history.

The winner is king. Only those with enough strength can survive in this era of the jungle. It seems that the gods are unwilling to stand on their side this time. What awaits them after trying their best can only depend on God's will.

The patrolling ninja's heart was always in his throat, and the room fell into a strange and dull silence. He looked at Ghost Cangyue, whose face was ugly. He looked at Bai Lian. Although Bai Lian looked very calm, But his cloudy eyes still betrayed his uneasiness.

"That... Clan Leader, Konoha wants to see you to talk about something..."

Bai Lian's eyebrows moved, and she almost forgot about it just thinking about foreign aid.

"Teacher, don't go," Kiden Zangetsu blurted out one step ahead of Byakuren, "Even if you have to go, just send someone to go. Teacher is the one we all rely on now, just in case...in case Konoha..."

He prepared for the worst, but it was not so easy to say the words.

People always have some concerns when it comes to words that are not very good. They are most afraid of good things not working and bad spirits. This is probably a common problem among all human beings.

"Who to send?"

Ghost Cangyue swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his eyes changed from wandering to firm, and he stood up straight to make himself look as reliable as possible.

He said, "Of course I'll go."

It is rumored that Bai Yasha has a ruthless and moody style, and if he fails to do so, bloodshed is likely to occur. This argument that the two countries are not at war with each other must not be effective with such a person.

If he goes, he may not be able to come back. Even so, he is still willing to go, which makes Bai Lian very happy, but...

"I understand what you are worried about. Even if something does happen, you are still here in the mountains, so there is nothing to worry about."

"But, teacher..."

Among the students he taught first-hand, only Ghost Cangyue is by his side now, and the other one with a clever mind is shining brightly on the northern battlefield.

If it comes to becoming his successor and the next clan leader, although Gui Deng Can Yue is kind-hearted and more merciful, his strength is far inferior to that of Gui Deng Huanyue, and he may not be able to convince the public.

As the leader of the ninja, in today's era, especially in troubled times with frequent wars, people tend to choose people with explosive strength.

Strength is security, and kindness is something only needed in peaceful times.
