Naruto under the bamboo forest

Chapter 89: Interception Mission



After Minato's inauguration ceremony, Minato was not busy handing over the village's political affairs to the Sandaime. Instead, he once again led Konoha's ninjas to the eastern part of the Country of Fire, preparing to completely drive the Kirigakure ninjas out of the Country of Fire.

When he saw Minato bringing reinforcements as the Fourth Hokage, Orochimaru's face looked extremely ugly. He had worked so hard for so long, but in the end he got nothing. Instead, he let Jiraiya's apprentice ride on his head.

bass! bass! bass!

Dozens of black shadows quickly passed through the forest, and strong winds blew by, picking up fallen leaves on the ground.

"Stop"

Yamazaka Haiichi, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped and raised his right hand back to signal. The dozens of figures following behind them quickly stopped after seeing the gesture reaction, waiting for the next instruction.

"Um!"

Seeing the look in the leader Yamanaka Haiichi's eyes, Liu Yu hummed softly. Then he stretched out his right hand and placed it close to the tree trunk beside him. He closed his eyes and listened carefully.

"Thirty-one Kirigakure ninjas are retreating towards us from the three o'clock direction. They are expected to arrive here in eight minutes. It is initially estimated that there are no sentient ninjas in the enemy camp, so be prepared!" Soon, Liu Yu opened her eyes and reported to Yamanaka Hai.

After hearing Liu Yu's reply, a cold light flashed in Shan Zhong Hai's eyes, and then he waved his right hand fiercely. Everyone in Konoha who stopped received instructions and took action, preparing to leave behind this Kirigakure rout.

After the fourth generation Hokage Namikaze Minato led reinforcements to the front line, the morale of the original Konoha ninjas greatly increased. Taking advantage of the reversal of the combat power comparison between the two sides, Nara Shikaku, as a military advisor, quickly formulated a counterattack plan.

The plan went smoothly. Under Konoha's absolute superiority in combat power, Kirigakure was defeated on the frontal battlefield. It can even be said that this plan went so smoothly that even the creator of the plan, Nara Shikaku, felt it was not too unreal, but the casualties in Kirigakure Village were real. The Kirigakure ninjas at the front are now running away, trying to retreat and reorganize their defense line.

The current mission of Riyuha and the others is to intercept Kirigakure's defeated troops. Of course, the strength of Yamanaka Haiichi's team alone is not enough. Now they have temporarily strengthened several teams.

A dozen figures quickly disappeared, hiding in various places, and the forest soon returned to calm.

Soon, the forest that had just calmed down was once again broken by dozens of figures arriving.

Boom! ! ! A gentle cracking sound was heard.

The faces of all the Kirigakure ninjas present who heard this sound changed greatly. They were able to survive the rout on the front line. Naturally, they were not rookies on the battlefield. They knew that they had been ambushed by the enemy.

boom! ! !

Before the Kirigakure ninja who triggered the trap had time to react, the detonating talisman hidden somewhere exploded, and the body of the Kirigakure ninja who was first triggered was shaken to the ground by the shock wave of the explosion. After spitting out two mouthfuls of blood in pain, he stopped moving and saw that he could not survive.

"There's an ambush!"

With a sharp reminder, countless kunai and shurikens followed, mixed with the explosion of sound detonating talismans.

"Disperse!" A Kirigakure ninja who seemed to be the leader shouted loudly. The voice seemed very clear, and upon closer inspection, the speaker was actually a woman.

The woman wears a standard Kirigakure vest, has white hair, purple pupils, and a delicate face. After the woman finished speaking, she stopped caring about other people, chose a direction and started to break out.

Indeed, in this case, their best option is to spread out and escape in various ways. If you stay and fight the enemy, you will definitely be wiped out. Although the hope of spreading out is also slim, at least there is a chance of survival.

After hearing the order, the Kirigakure ninjas present ran towards the outside of the ambush circle while dodging kunai and shurikens shot from everywhere.

At this time, Konoha ninjas who were ambushing everywhere appeared one after another, trying to keep these Kirigakure remnants behind.

The clanking sounds of sharp weapons clashed one after another, and the Kirigakure ninjas who were eager to escape and the Konoha ninjas who vowed to stay with them began to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

Bang!

The Kirigakure ninja who first gave the order rushed past, not caring about the kunai stabbing the heart between the fingers of the Konoha ninja in the first place.

"It's nothing more than that!" The Konoha ninja who blocked the road couldn't help but smile when he saw that his kunai had successfully penetrated the enemy's body. I thought to myself that this Kirigakure ninja who looked like the leader was not that strong either!

"Um?"

Soon, the expression of this Konoha ninja changed drastically. Because the Kirigakure ninja who had just been stabbed by him did not shed any blood at all, nor did he show any pain.

Looking closer, I saw that the place where my kunai stabbed turned into liquid at some point. My kunai did not cause any harm to the enemy at all. Looking at the enemy again, he saw the purple eyes of the Kirigakure ninja staring directly at him, with endless cold light emitting from his eyes.

The Kirigakure ninja who was eager to leave here didn't pay attention to the enemy's shock. He stretched out his right hand and directly twisted the enemy's neck and charged forward.

Bang!

The Konoha ninja's body was hit hard against a big tree. The big tree that suffered the impact began to sway uncontrollably, and leaves continued to fall.

Click! There was a breaking sound.

The Kirigakure ninja let go of the Konoha ninja's neck and continued to leave towards the periphery. The Konoha ninja from before slowly fell down against the big tree with his neck crooked, and his eyes turned white. It was obvious that his throat was pinched by the enemy.

"Be careful, this guy is weird."

After all, Konoha was well prepared for this ambush. After the previous ambush, the Konoha ninjas now have an absolute advantage in numbers. Therefore, seeing a Konoha ninja being killed by the suspected enemy leader, three Konoha ninjas soon blocked the Kirigakure ninja's path. However, seeing that the enemy had killed a Konoha ninja in just an instant, the three of them still seemed very cautious.

"Is it over yet?" Looking at the three Konoha ninjas who appeared in front of him, Ghost Light Xuanyue muttered with an ugly expression.

Gui Deng Xian Yue was very confused. Even though Kirigakure Village had already invaded the Fire Country, the top management actually ordered to stop the attack and withdraw the main force of the frontline army.

It doesn't matter if they don't continue to attack while Konoha's combat strength is tense. Then they can also obtain more benefits from Konoha on the condition of truce and withdrawal. However, the top management of Kirigakure Village did nothing. Instead, they withdrew the main force of Kirigakure's army when Konoha's situation was at its most dangerous, allowing Konoha to breathe a sigh of relief.

Now, Konoha has solved the enemies on other fronts, and has focused the war on the eastern front of the Land of Fire. After receiving this news, the senior officials of Kirigakure Village refused to send reinforcements. Instead, they sat back and watched Konoha send reinforcements to the front line. Otherwise, Kirigakure wouldn't have suffered such a defeat this time.

"Are you just pretending to be a fool?" Gui Deng Xian Yue muttered to the senior officials of Kirigakure Village with dissatisfaction.

After looking at the three Konoha ninjas who were on guard in front of him, Kiden Sengetsu suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart and rushed towards the three Konoha ninjas in front of him.

It's better to get out of here now.
