Chapter 568: Worst incident in history
Chapter 568 The Worst Event in History
As the commander, Jiraiya left himself with the most ninjas and was under the greatest pressure.
The small army he led had more than sixty ninjas, which was more than Mu Yuena's so-called vanguard force.
This is actually a very dangerous thing when there are unknown spies within the army.
Hence, Jiraiya did not choose a certain place as a fixed base, but ran around every day to prevent the point from being exposed and besieged.
“This is the vanguard of our reinforcements. More reinforcements will arrive soon. Then it will be our turn to fight back!”
Jiraiya summoned his troops to introduce Mu Yue, who was coming for reinforcements, to boost morale.
After experiencing a tragic defeat and being chased around by the enemy, the morale of the Grass Country troops is now very low.
“It’s Lord Mu Yue.” Soon some ninjas recognized Mu Yue and showed expressions of joy.
Mu Yue is as famous as Namikaze Minato. For such a powerful person, each additional person can have a certain impact on the battle situation.
"Lord Mugetsu once killed a Jinchuuriki on the Kirigakure battlefield. If he can kill an Iwagakure jinchuriki like that time, look at how arrogant the Iwagakure troops can be!" Some Konoha ninjas couldn't bear it. Just think about it.
Iwagakure's two full-body Jinchūriki put considerable pressure on the Konoha troops in the Kingdom of Grass. No one wanted to fight and suddenly a tailed beast appeared on their face.
Looking at the changes in the expressions of the ninja troops after Mu Yue appeared, Obito was filled with yearning for this.
The ninja he wants to be is a ninja like Mu Yue, who can give people a great sense of security and can end wars and save people from fire and water.
Jiraiya and Namikaze Minato both paid close attention to the expressions on the faces of the ninjas, but they did not see any ninjas showing disdain or other bad expressions.
"It depends on Mu Yue's perception." Jiraiya was not surprised.
After all, he is a spy who can infiltrate the ninja army, and it should be his basic skill to keep his mood and anger secret.
“Everyone, just hold on, the main force of the support force will arrive soon, and the final victory must belong to Konoha.” Mu Yue encouraged with a cheerful smile.
Handling over a bowl of chicken soup, Mu Yue quickly used appraisal on the ninjas in front of her.
【Name: Kosuke Yamanaka】
【Chakra: 4600】
【Skills: Changing the nature of Yin chakra (skilled level), Heart Turning Technique (skilled level)...】
【Name: Miki Banping】
【Skill: Change of Fire Attribute Chakra Nature (Proficient Level)...】
“Victory belongs to us in Konoha!” a Konoha ninja who was unfamiliar with Mu Yue shouted passionately.
【Name: Bai Jue】
【Chakra: 13000】
【Skills: Mayfly Art, Disguise Art...】
Mu Yue’s expression remained unchanged as she noted down the disguised appearance of the passionate Bai Jue, and then continued to use identification techniques on other ninjas.
After the appraisal, Mu Yue discovered that the situation was actually not bad. There was only one White Zetsu in the small army where Jiraiya was.
"Next we need to rendezvous with other dispersed teams and prepare for counterattack." Jiraiya gave the latest order.
The Konoha ninja troops have been running around recently and have become accustomed to sudden transfer orders. Everyone quickly started to act according to Jiraiya's orders.
"Mu Yue, did you sense anything?" Jiraiya led his disciples to Mu Yue and asked in a low voice.
According to normal logic, he is most likely to have spies among his small army, because not only does he have the largest number of people, but he is also the commander of the unit.
"There is a ninja who is most likely a spy for Iwagakure." Mu Yue thought for a while and replied.
The identification technique was as effective as Mu Yue imagined in finding Bai Jue. However, since Mu Yue used the excuse of sensing good and evil, he did not use positive words, only high probability.
“High probability?”
"He has an extremely deep malice towards me. If given the chance, he would kill me without hesitation. To this extent, it is as if he has sworn hatred with me." Mu Yue said without changing her expression.
"High probability? It must be a spy." Jiraiya felt that Mu Yue was a little conservative.
Even if there is a personal grudge between Konoha ninjas and Mu Yue, it would not be so exaggerated.
"who is it?"
Mu Yue channeled a pen and paper from the scroll, and then quickly drew Bai Jue's disguised appearance on the paper.
"He probably looks like this. I don't know him, and I don't know his name." Mu Yue handed the portrait to Jiraiya.
"If I remember correctly, this person seems to be called Sada Seiichi, and he is a chuunin." Jiraiya looked at it and said.
Jiraiya didn’t know him originally. After all, it was impossible for Jiraiya to know all the ninjas in a thousand-person ninja troop. He only knew all the jounin and the chuunin he had interacted with. But they were scattered later, and he needed to find spies, so Jiraiya deliberately wrote down the names of all his subordinates to facilitate the investigation of relevant information.
"It's him. Although Sada Seiichi is not a family ninja, his family is a resident of Konoha who joined Konoha when it was first founded. Unexpectedly, he has become a spy now." Namikaze Minato sighed.
Sakada Seiichi's family was protected by Konoha, and he himself grew up under the protection of Konoha. Why such a person would become a spy for Iwagakure, Namikaze Minato couldn't figure it out.
But when he thought that the Sarutobi clan had spies, Namikaze Minato felt that it was quite normal.
With the jounin of the Sarutobi clan as a precedent, even if a spy appears in Inogacho, Namikaze Minato will not be too surprised.
"Since you are a native of Konoha, why would you betray your own village?" Obito found it difficult to accept.
He thought the spies were ninjas from other villages in disguise, but he didn't expect that the ninjas from his own village had rebelled.
“Could it be that people from other villages used transformation techniques to disguise themselves?”
Namikaze Minato shook his head and explained: "Even the most advanced transformation technique can't escape the perception of a sensing ninja."
“Although ninjas all have chakra, in fact everyone’s chakra is different, but this difference cannot be detected by ordinary ninjas.”
Obito looked disappointed. Namikaze Minato's meaning was obvious. If it was disguised by a transformation technique, how could it be hidden from the sentient ninjas of the army.
"Money, life, power, status, there are so many tempting things in this world." Jiraiya sighed.
He didn't know what benefits Iwagakure had promised, or whether Seiichi and the others had some leverage to be threatened. In short, the spy had become a fact.
"It's really difficult to deal with. If the matter spreads back to the village, it may have an impact on Konoha." Jiraiya became more and more annoyed as he thought about it.
This spy is not only difficult to find, but if he finds it and announces it, it will easily affect morale, and even have a negative impact on Konoha as a whole.
“Let’s wait until the troops are assembled and then take a look. Don’t take any action for now, so as not to alert the enemy.” Mu Yue reminded.
If you want to use the White Zetsu to deceive Yanyin, then the White Zetsus cannot be allowed to discover their exposure before the information is passed on.
Jiraiya and others nodded. No one knew if there were any spies among the other small troops.
Jiraiya, who was worried about the long nights and long dreams, issued the highest-level assembly order, asking all teams that could move to assemble as quickly as possible.
With the blessing of the high mobility of ninjas, the team of Mu Yue and others quickly continued to grow, from one hundred to two hundred and three hundred, and when finally assembled, there were about seven hundred people.
Mu Yue also used the identification technique intensively in this process to find Bai Jue, and finally Mu Yue found three Bai Jue.
Except for Seiichi Sakada who was found at the beginning, there are also the injured Aburame clan ninja Aburame Ryuya, and the last Hyuga clan ninja in Jiraiya's army, Hinata Shi.
Jiraiya became numb when he learned that the only white-eyed ninja left in the army was a spy.
Even the ninjas of the Hyuga clan have problems, so it’s no wonder they were defeated so miserably.
"What is going on in this world that even the ninjas of the Hyuga clan will rebel." Jiraiya was very puzzled.
Hyuuga clan is also a rather peculiar family in Konoha.
The Hyuga clan has a strict system of clan division. The clan is not only superior in status to others, but also has absolute control over the clan. It can easily control the life and death of ninjas in the clan through the caged bird seal.
Hyuga Cha in Jiraiya's army is naturally the Hyuga branch. The Hyuga clan is extremely rare and rarely goes to the battlefield.
"It's so abnormal. There must be some secret in this." Namikaze Minato frowned.
It would not be an exaggeration to characterize this espionage incident as the worst espionage incident since the founding of Konoha.
Hyuuga Clan, Aburame Clan, and Sarutobi Clan, these three major families are the senior ninja clan of Konoha. Each family has many ninjas who hold important positions in various departments.
Among them, the Sarutobi clan is the most important, and its leader, Hiruzen Sarutobi, currently serves as the third generation Hokage of Konoha.
If the news spread that a ninja in their family was a spy from another village, the consequences would be unpredictable.
Even such a ninja with such a good background can become a spy. Does this mean that there are more ordinary spies?
“It is important to explore the secrets of spies, but the most important thing at the moment is to defeat the Iwagakure troops.” Mu Yue pointed out the current focus.
Mu Yue knew the reason, but he couldn't explain it clearly. The best way was to guide it.
“Mu Yue is right, the most important thing now is not to allow the Iwagakure troops to invade the Land of Fire.” Jiraiya nodded.
It is important for spies to influence the morale of the military, but allowing Iwagakure's troops to break into the Fire Country itself will affect the entire Fire Country. This time, the situation is different from Kirigakure's.
The next few people began to discuss how to use spies to create traps for the Iwagakure troops.
They have discovered the spy, and the current situation has become that the Iwagakure troops thought they were on the first level and they were on the second level. In fact, the Konoha ninja troops had reached the third level.
Directly arresting spies is the stupidest method, and Yujie of course uses spies and support troops in the dark to create an information gap to surprise the Iwagakure ninja troops.
