Konoha's entry is ninja!

In the illusion, in the root base, Shuichi Hoshita, who plays Danzo, smiled: "Have you finally been found?"

Along with the roar, a huge object fell from the sky from the base of the base. Wherever it passed, the crisscrossing overpasses collapsed one after another.

boom!

Shukaku landed on the ground, raised his claws and smashed them down: "Hiding here, it has become so ugly!"

"go to hell!"

Hoshita Shuichi jumped up, ended the role play, and fought with Shukaku.

He wants to delay.

But obviously tailed beasts are very special.

Even in the spiritual space, there is terrifying power. At this moment, he is venting his power wantonly, so that the entire root base is collapsing.

Uh-huh!

Shuichi Hoshita suddenly disappeared and used the Flying Thunder God to transfer.

Shukaku immediately chased after him, condensing the Tailed Beast Jade in his mouth, and plowing the ground from the air to bombard him.

The earth shook and the entire illusion began to collapse.

But the power of the spiritual clone as the carrier of the spell is no longer enough to withstand the ravages of Shukaku's power.

…

Under the night sky, the ninjas of Konoha and Sand Ninja collided on the sand, with Shukaku as the center of the battlefield.

The Suna Ninja wanted to rescue Shukaku, but Konoha tried to stop him.

But at this moment, behind Shukaku, Hoshige Shuichi, who had already pulled one third of Shukaku out, sighed: "What a pity..."

The illusion was broken!

Shukaku and Fenfu woke up one after another.

Moreover, that old lady Chiyo actually broke through Uchiha Shisui's blockade and allowed two Sand Ninja to rush over.

Seeing this, Hideyoshi Hoshita was extremely decisive, and a clone appeared beside him, summoning the Yaegaki Sword.

Blue Flame Waterfall Knife!

The giant blue sword appeared, and when Fenfu was about to pull Shukaku back, he slashed it down, cutting off the third that was pulled out by Shuichi Hoshita.

The huge chakra was entangled by the Fire Nether Lock and pulled into the body. While Hoshita showed off a seal, he once again used illusions on Shukaku and Fenfu.

The art of golden binding!

One person and one civet cat were immediately immobilized.

But this time was shorter, but they broke free in less than 1 second.

But Hoshita Shuichi, who had completed the seal, exploded with ninjutsu one after another.

Earth Escape-Yellow Quannum!

Thunder Escape-Sixteen Pillars of Restraint!

First, Shukaku's much smaller body was trapped again, and then stone pillars rose up all around, and electric light emerged, forming an electric light area.

Obviously, this is nothing to Shukuru in the sand body.

But then comes the art of biscuit burning.

Blue high-temperature flames emerged and enveloped Shukaku.

This was enough to trap Shukaku. Hoshita Shuichi immediately jumped up and, as fast as lightning, knocked away the two sand ninjas who were coming towards him, blowing a retreating whistle in his mouth.

The Konoha ninjas fought and retreated like a tide. Hoshita Shuichi split into many clones and cut off Uchiha Shisui.

After Chiyo and the Suna Ninja surrounded Shukaku, they did not pursue him.

Hoshita Shuichi's strength is extraordinary, and they wouldn't dare to fight him without Shukaku.

Carrying the bodies of the wounded and dead companions, Konoha successfully retreated to the River Country.

Hoshixia Shuichi stopped and ordered: "Send the wounded to the medical class immediately. The remaining people will stay on duty and rest according to the previous arrangement."

"The sand ninja will not only provoke me this time in order to hold back my true form."

Sarutobi Shinichi and others nodded: "Understood!"

Everyone hid in the forest.

Hoshita Shuichi said to Uchiha Shisui who was left behind: "Shisui, you should go and rest too!"

"Recharge your batteries and deal with Shukaku together when the time comes!"

Uchiha Shisui smiled after hearing this: "Okay!"

After saying that, Uchiha Shisui walked away.

Hoshita Shuichi immediately jumped up, came to sit on the tree crown, and looked towards the Suna Ninja, but his spiritual body was already in the Bagua seal in his abdomen.

Seeing him appear, Xiao Siwei said, "It seems it won't be long before you can catch Shukaku."

Hoshita Shuichi looked at Shukaku's huge chakra and smiled: "I have no intention of catching Shukaku."

Xiao Siwei was thoughtful.

Shuichi Hoshita ignored him and continued to feel the power of Shukaku's chakra.

…

Platycodon Mountain, Platycodon City.

This castle in the River Country originally belonged to a noble of the River Country, but now it has become Konoha's military fortress.

However, it was the shadow clone of Shuichi Hoshita who rushed to the border of Fire Country with Orochimaru to take over the command and brought his people here.

But the number of shinobi in Konoha is actually only three hundred at the moment.

Fortunately, after arriving at Platycodon Castle, Hoshige Shuichi immediately summoned Gama Bunta and sent a message to Konohagakure for help through the toad in Mt. Myoboku.

This speed was even faster than when he returned to Konoha.

After all, Hoshita Shuichi couldn't teleport to Konoha.

But Mount Myoki has a direct passage into Konoha.

Even if the teacher Minato Namikaze is in the village, he can just summon a counter-spiritual technique and then cancel it.

Orochimaru was busy deploying troops and arranging defense.

Hoshita Shuichi found a remote place, turned into a mini Four-Tails and began to restore chakra.

With Konoha's small number of troops, it was obviously impossible for him to eliminate it.

They must hold out until Konoha's reinforcements arrive.

And obviously, the elite of Sand Ninja will arrive before Konoha's reinforcements.

Because the distance between Suna Ninja from the northern battlefield to Mount Kikyo is much closer than the distance from Konoha to Mount Kikyo.

Even if Konoha mobilized its troops overnight and arrived as quickly as possible, it would definitely be after dawn tomorrow.

Sand Ninja 800VS300, this is a huge advantage!

Time passes little by little.

At 3 o'clock in the morning, Ebizo arrived with the elite Sand Ninja.

The elite team of Sand Ninja who went ahead had also detected Konoha's troop transfer.

After receiving the report, Ebizo couldn't help frowning: "Mount Kikyo?"

"It's easy to defend but hard to attack there..."

A Sand Ninja Jounin next to him said: "Even so, our numbers are enough."

"There are only three hundred people in Konoha."

Just as he was talking, a figure came quickly, landed in front of Ebiyo's hiding place and said: "Konoha's blue shining chakra was detected in Platycodon City!"

The surrounding sand ninjas were all shocked when they heard this.

However, Ebizo was already prepared and said calmly: "Don't worry, this is just the shadow clone of Hoshita Shuichi."

"With Shukaku in check, his true form cannot appear here."

He looked at the somewhat hazy Platycodon City and shouted: "Start the attack in half an hour!"

…

In Platycodon Castle, Orochimaru and Hoshita Shuichi stood on the roof, looking down at the direction where the Suna Ninja gathered.

Orochimaru smiled and said: "With less than three times the strength, the Fourth Kazekage didn't come in person. I really underestimate you, Shuichi-kun."

Hoshita Shuichi said calmly: "Although it is said that the shadow clone can exert all the abilities of the original body, this is not actually the case."

"I cannot enter the Fire Release Chakra Mode as a Shadow Clone. The Melt Release Chakra Mode is not what I am good at. It is still within the rules. The Fourth Kazekage does not need to come in person."

"Besides, the Fourth Kazekage doesn't dare to leave."

The Fourth Kazekage dared to leave, and the Third Tsuchikage dared to order the Iwa Ninja to counterattack.

The current Sand Ninja and Iwa Ninja are not officially in alliance.

Hoshita Shuichi looked towards the direction of the Earth Kingdom and said: "Once the war between us and the Sand Ninja becomes anxious, the Iwa Ninja will probably not be able to help but take action."

Orochimaru nodded, but did not worry: "Don't worry too much. Although the old man's character has become conservative, he still has enough strength to cope with it."

Hoshixia Xiuyi withdrew his gaze and nodded slowly.

Half an hour passed in a blink of an eye.

The Sand Ninja arrived at the bottom of the mountain and attacked from all sides without stopping.

Under the dark night, a war broke out!

On the roof, Hoshita Shuichi looked at the sand ninja charging towards him, lightning burst out from his limbs, and thousands of birds chirped.

Electric light wrapped around the body from the limbs. Hoshita showed a standard sword in his right hand and a kunai in his left hand. The next moment, under Orochimaru's gaze, it turned into a beam of electric light and swooped down from the roof, and everything it passed was scorched black.

"Be careful, Konoha's blue flash is coming!"

"It's just a shadow clone, using wind escape to limit his speed."

"Prepare the puppet's hidden weapon!"

…

Seeing the lightning coming, the Sand Ninja immediately mobilized his elite troops to move forward, preparing to surround and kill Hoshita Shuichi.

However, Hoshita Shuichi suddenly disappeared from the place after killing three Sand Ninjas in a row, appeared in another place, rescued a Konoha Ninja, and then killed the Sand Ninja.

Earth escape, wind escape, thunder escape, fire escape, water escape, and genjutsu were all at his disposal. Wherever Hoshixia Shuichi went, the sand ninja were quickly defeated.

And there was no way the Sand Ninja could set up an ambush in advance.

Because it is impossible to determine where Hoshixia Shuichi will appear.

The shadow clone does not carry a large number of flying thunder god kunai, but every Konoha ninja has his coordinates. He may appear next to any Konoha ninja, and then output various ninjutsu to frustrate the Suna ninja's offensive.

This was also the tactic decided by Hoshita Shuichi himself and Orochimaru after prior discussion.

Rescue and disrupt the Sand Ninja offensive!

Although the Rasen Shuriken technique is very powerful, it also consumes a lot of energy.

Even if the Hoshita Hide Ikage clone used this technique, it would be impossible to destroy all the Sand Ninja.

After all, today's Sand Ninja are not gathering together like the Mist Ninja last time, but turning the entire Platycodon Mountain into a battlefield, attacking the Platycodon Castle from any direction.

In this situation, the continuous combat capability under conventional ninjutsu is the best choice.

Half an hour later, the ferocious attack of the sand ninja receded like a tide.

Hoshixia Xiuyi stopped and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Chakra consumption is too great!

If he continues, he may not be able to support it anymore.

Although it was also half an hour, his output was too strong.

After saying hello to Orochimaru, Shuichi Hoshita disappeared and came to a secret room to transform into a mini Four-Tails to recover chakra.

However, less than half an hour later, the Sand Ninja attacked again.

Orochimaru, who was in charge of the command, also came to an end and channeled all the snakes.

But the Sand Ninja also summoned two large psychic beasts, a scorpion and a sandworm that could burrow into the ground, and barely managed to hold Wan She down.

Shuichi Hoshita continued to put out fires everywhere, wandering around every corner of the battlefield, blocking the ferocious attacks of the Sand Ninja.

Halfway up the mountain, Ebizo, who was in charge of the command, stared at the lightning flashing around with a very ugly expression.

"Although it is not the original body, but with space ninjutsu, the shadow clones may keep coming from there..."

Ebizo was filled with helplessness.

There was really nothing he could do about this Konoha blue flash, and there was no way to limit such a teleportation technique.

Originally, with 800 men, he was very confident that he could take down Konoha's troops deployed on the border of the Land of Fire in one fell swoop, but now he had a premonition of failure.

After thinking for a moment, Ebizo immediately sent people back to the battlefield in the north of the Kingdom of Wind.

We must ask for help, otherwise this strategy will fail.

Time passes little by little.

The sand ninja's ferocious attacks came one after another.

By the time it got light, the Sand Ninja had already launched six attacks.

At 6 o'clock in the morning, the first batch of reinforcements from Konoha finally arrived.

After Ebizo was detected by the Sensing Ninja, he immediately sent out 200 people to intercept, hoping to eat Konoha's 100 reinforcements.

But seeing Shuichi Hoshita walking in the air, he had to give up this idea.

Ebizo was afraid that the 200 men sent there would be meat buns and beat the dogs, and they would never come back.

As a result, 100 reinforcements were easily escorted into Platycodon City by Shuichi Hoshita.

However, Hoshita Shuichi was not happy, because among the reinforcements, pharmacists Noono U and Shizune were present, and they were members of the medical team.

On the contrary, Yakushi Nonou and Shizune were very happy after seeing Hoshita Shuichi, and their worries suddenly disappeared.

But there are too many injuries right now. In addition to Hoshita Shuichi, even Orochimaru is injured. So before the three of them had time to say anything, pharmacist Nonoyu and Shizune started busy without even touching the ground.

"People really have double standards..."

Hoshita Shuichi looked at the two busy people and sighed secretly, and then went to restore chakra.

The Sand Ninja's offensive will not stop because of these 100 reinforcements. On the contrary, it may become even more crazy.

…

To the west of the River Country, it was exactly as Hoshita Shuichi expected.

Although he was severely beaten, Shukaku still enjoyed the challenge.

But there is another helper on top of his head - Chiyo!

Hoshita Shuichi took Uchiha Shisui with him, and summoned Gamabunta to deal with Shukaku and the others.

Three battles in one night, no one can do anything.

At 7 o'clock in the morning, Koharu finally arrived after going to bed and took over the command. Hoshita Shuichi concentrated on dealing with Shukaku.

at the same time.

To the north of the Kingdom of Wind, the Fourth Kazekage received Ebizo's request for help and couldn't help but fall silent.

800 men was actually the limit of the troops he could draw.

If the human hand is removed again, his side will become weak.

"It seems that we can only recruit people from the village..."

The Fourth Kazekage made a decision quickly.

As the war has developed to this day, the war potential of Sunagakure Village has not been fully exploited.

The flying ninja beasts were ordered to return south to Sunagakure Village. That afternoon, 600 reinforcements from Sunagakure Village left Sunagakure Village and went straight to the Battlefield of Mount Kikyo.

At this time, Konoha's reinforcements arrived in three batches one after another. The arrival of new forces made Ebizo completely lose the possibility of taking over Mount Kikyo in a short time.

The next day, reinforcements from Sunagakure Village arrived, bringing their combat strength to thousands.

At this time, there are more than 700 Konoha ninjas in Platycodon Castle who can fight.

With Shuichi Hoshita's shadow clone as a firefighter, the two sides became evenly matched.

Under such a situation, the original quick war naturally evolved into a protracted war.

…

Iwagakure Village, Tsuchikage Building.

After reading the information, Onoki became thoughtful.

The current situation seems to be a very good time to take action.

The actions of Sunagakure Village caused Konoha to repeatedly increase its troops.

A rough calculation shows that Konoha has invested more than 3,000 troops because of the Mist Ninja and Sand Ninja.

After thinking for a moment, Onoki stood up.

He decided to go south in person to meet the young Fourth Kazekage!

…

The border between the country of birds and the country of wind.

Under the dark night, Rasa, the fourth Kazekage, and Onoki, the third Tsuchikage, met across the border between the two countries.

"The Fourth Kazekage, I have ordered the army to retreat!"

Ohnoki spoke.

Luo Sha also said immediately: "I have also ordered the withdrawal of troops!"

"But if Iwa Ninja dares to offend again, Sunagakure Village will use all its strength to fight Iwa Ninja!"

Faced with such a threat, Onoki didn't care at all and said calmly: "Iwa Ninja is not afraid of anyone."

"The Fourth Kazekage, you'd better investigate the death of the Third Kazekage!"

"Of course, it's already obvious who it is."

Luo Sha was unmoved: "I don't need to worry about this anymore."

…

Although the meeting between the Fourth Kazekage and the Third Tsuchikage was not pleasant and harmonious, they reached a tacit understanding with each other.

That night, the two armies retreated.

On the western border of the River Country, Hoshita Shuichi, who had just finished a fight with Shukaku, received memories fed back by his shadow clone, and suddenly felt something bad.

The Sand Ninja and Iwa Ninja ceased fighting and withdrew their troops, and then Konoha was in big trouble.

"Shisui, please go and report to Lord Koharu that the Sand Ninja and Iwa Ninja have withdrawn their troops."

Hoshishita said to Uchiha Shisui who had just sat down to rest.

"What?"

Uchiha Shisui was surprised, and then nodded solemnly: "I understand!"

After saying that, the person has disappeared.

Hoshita Shuichi rubbed his eyebrows.

He has been using the Baihao Jutsu for the past few days. Even when he is not fighting, he uses the Baihao Jutsu to keep every cell active with a trace amount of chakra to relieve fatigue.

But mental exhaustion is difficult to resolve.

"I really want to go directly to your lair..."

A fierce light appeared in Xingxia Xiu's eyes.

This repeated pulling made him feel uncomfortable.
