Chapter 205: The Red Dragon Flag Flying in the Land of Thunder (2 in 1)
The battlefield outside Mihara Mountain Castle has now become a forest.
Lush and green, stretching for thousands of miles.
It is exactly the same as the death forest outside Konoha.
A shadow formed by the huge canopy of trees.
A head popped up silently.
An unusually white head.
Naturally, it is Bai Jue.
He is the White Zetsu clone who was ordered to monitor the fighting situation in Konoha Village and Kumogakure Village, and to deliver information to Madara Uchiha in a timely manner so that he could analyze and intervene.
Bai Jue, who had never been discovered with his superb stealth skills, encountered the greatest crisis in yesterday's battle.
He always felt that Qingshu had discovered him.
Because of this, he spent all his life learning hiding in the forest and never dared to move.
I only came out cautiously today.
"Yeah, it's like the reincarnation of Senju Hashirama. Madara-sama should be happy."
Bai Jue's tone was not serious, but he felt like he was surviving a disaster.
If Uchiha Madara heard it, he probably wouldn't be able to escape a severe beating.
He recalled the previous battle. It couldn't be called a battle, but simply an adult bullying a child.
"Haruki, I didn't expect him to be the mysterious wood escape ninja who fought against Madara-sama before."
Bai Jue stopped his careless tone.
Even he felt troubled.
Today, Uchiha Madara has reached his twilight years and his strength is not as strong as before.
And Hei Jue will basically not take action until his plan is successful, so as not to be noticed by others.
He has worked hard to hide himself for thousands of years, has absolute patience, and will still maintain a state of survival until he is not sure.
But Uchiha Madara is one of their best targets.
It's extremely difficult to find the next one.
Bai Jue sighed and submerged himself into the land again.
He had nothing to do for the time being, so he should go back and report it to Uchiha Madara.
Dark underground base.
Uchiha Madara relies on the Heretic Golem to maintain his vitality.
After a moment, he raised his head, saw Bai Zetsu, and asked: "How was the final battle between Konoha Village and Cloud Hidden Village? Was it a river of blood?"
Although he has never left here, he has heard Bai Jue report the situation before.
Knowing that under a series of operations by Haruki, Yunyin Village was forced to go to Mihara Mountain Castle.
And Yunyin Village did not disappoint him, directly gathering an army of 20,000 ninjas.
As for the addition of Iwagakure Village halfway, it was even more unexpected.
All in all, this battle must be extremely brutal.
"Konoha wins a great victory."
Bai Jue didn't talk too much and went straight to the point, "The Cloud Hidden Village and Iwagakure Village were defeated miserably, and the 25,000 ninja coalition was destroyed."
"What did you say?"
Uchiha Madara showed a surprised look, "How is it possible? How can Konoha be so powerful?"
"It's Haruki. He is the wood escape ninja who fought with you in the Kingdom of Water."
Bai Jue explained softly, with rare seriousness.
"..."
Uchiha Madara was stunned on the spot.
After a while, his face turned red, indicating that he was angry.
He thought of Haruki's violent beating against him, just like Senju Hashirama.
And Haruki is also Tsunade's boyfriend.
Wouldn't that be equivalent to being raped by Senju Hashirama's grandson-in-law again... Thinking of this, he almost wanted to vomit blood.
The Thousand Hands Clan is really bullying others!
"Madara-sama, what should we do now? With Haruki in Konoha, unifying the Kingdom of Thunder is almost a foregone conclusion."
Bai Jue frowned and asked, "Maybe not only the Kingdom of Thunder, but also the entire ninja world if he is willing. It's just a matter of time. But this is extremely detrimental to our plan."
"Of course I know!"
Uchiha Madara was also a little irritated. His resurrection plan obviously had hope of success, but why did another Haruki appear?
And the most troublesome thing is that Uchiha Obito is Haruki's student.
"We must complete all our things before Qingshu joins the Kingdom of Rain, otherwise, it will be a hundred times more difficult in the future."
Uchiha Madara rubbed his forehead, he no longer had the lifespan to survive another Wood Release ninja.
If Haruki intervenes, he will definitely not have a chance in guiding Obito and Nagato's plan.
In front of a strong man comparable to Senju Hashirama, it would be too confusing to make small moves.
"Ever since Tsunade appeared in the Land of Rain, it has been difficult for Hanzo to threaten them."
Bai Zetsu understood what Uchiha Madara meant, but he was in some trouble at the moment.
"Tsunade and Jiraiya can jointly destroy Hanzo's biggest advantage. His poison will be useless and his own strength will be reduced by at least one-third.
He had the Hidden Rain Village to help him, but the Akatsuki Organization and Konoha Alliance were not weaker than them. Not to mention Haruki's three apprentices, Nagato's Rinnegan alone could put them in trouble.
Although he is not as proficient as Madara-sama in the Rinnegan Eye, the Rinnegan Eye is the Rinnegan Eye after all, and it only needs to play a small role to make Nagato's strength skyrocket.
It won't be long before Hanzo will fail."
Bai Jue shook his head and gave an ultimatum regarding the current war situation in the Kingdom of Rain.
Hanzo is not strong enough to handle his big task.
Uchiha Madara was silent for a moment and said: "I can only go there myself."
Although the Elephant Turning Technique is very useful, it currently does not have the Samsara Eye, and frequent use may cause side effects.
However, he had no other choice.
Along with Bai Zetsu's scream, Uchiha Madara took over his body and left the underground cave.
…
When Bai Jue left, Qingshu glanced at Yao but didn't do anything.
On the contrary, he was more looking forward to what Bai Jue would do next.
His behavior must have greatly irritated Uchiha Madara.
Regarding the Kingdom of Rain, he was actually not too worried. The only one who was slightly worried was Uchiha Obito.
In the face of huge stimulation, I wonder what choice he will make?
Haruki thought for a while, he had been educated in a ninja school and would not be trapped in a deadlock like in the original work.
As for how it will develop, he will wait and see.
"Sunny Tree"
Hatake Sakumo suddenly appeared on the city wall, side by side with Haruki.
"I have received some information that you may be interested in."
"What information?"
Qingshu turned to look at him and could probably guess what it was.
"The first one is about Cloud Hidden Village. Darui of the Fourth Raikage left Cloud Hidden Village with thirty people and disappeared without a trace. Do we need to send someone to deal with them?"
"It's not necessary, it's just a lost dog."
Haruki smiled and shook his head. He really wanted to see the scene when Darui tried his best to seek revenge, but found that the original Kumo ninjas had completely surrendered.
"Um."
Hatake Sakumo nodded. They don't have the extra manpower to deal with a mere thirty people.
What's more, he is confident that there is no way Darui and others can make any waves.
Even if it needs to be solved, let’s use it as a touchstone for future generations.
"The second information is about Iwagakure Village. Tsuchikage Onoki recalled the ninjas outside and increased the defense of Iwagakure Village."
Qingshu couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
Unexpectedly, Onoki, who is known as the strongest Tsuchikage, was frightened.
However, he had no intention of taking over Iwagakure Village.
According to the traditional virtues of flower growers, one step at a time, first thoroughly digest the Kingdom of Thunder and Yunyin Village, and then consider other countries.
If he defeated them all at once, how could he have so many talents to manage the entire ninja world?
If the foundation is unstable, it is easy to hurt yourself.
"The third piece of information was sent by Minato."
Hatake Sakumo handed him the scroll, "It's not a big trouble, you can tell just by looking at it."
Qingshu opened the scroll with interest, looked at the last piece of information, and immediately smiled.
"Just in time, I was planning to go there."
He returned the scroll to Hatake Sakumo, "With my wooden clone here, there should be no problem."
Further north from the Ontake Mountains is the plateau.
But although it is said to be a plateau, it is actually surrounded by towering peaks.
Only after crossing the middle, a low-altitude plain will appear.
Further ahead we reach the end of the mountain range, where the metropolis of the Kingdom of Thunder is located.
At this time, Namikaze Minato and his army of 160,000 were making preparations in the middle of the Ontake Mountains.
After several days of pursuit, their group was almost invincible and captured half of the Kingdom of Thunder.
But an ordinary army has its limits after all.
There happened to be some obstacles, so Minato decided to stop and rest for two days.
Suddenly he raised his head.
Familiar fluctuations.
He stood up, looked at Qingshu who appeared out of thin air, and said hello: "Teacher."
Haruki nodded in response.
He glanced at the army around him and saw that there was not much attrition.
"What's the situation now?"
"We originally followed the defeated army all the way north, heading straight for the metropolis. But yesterday, the scattered army of the Kingdom of Thunder was integrated and relied on the Ontake Mountains to stop us in front of the Pinggaowang Plain."
Things are not complicated.
Minato called Haruki, he just felt that this man was a rare general, and it would be a pity if he died here.
"This man is quite capable."
Qingshu's eyes brightened slightly.
He can unite hundreds of thousands of demoralized soldiers in one day and command them to resist the Fire Nation's army.
It must be said that he is an extremely rare general.
Haruki has been using Minato to lead the Fire Nation's army, which is too much of a waste of his strength.
It would be great if someone could replace him.
"What's his name?"
"Hidenori." Minato replied.
"No last name?"
Qingshu raised his eyebrows, a little surprised. He didn't have a surname. He was either an orphan or a slave.
"No."
Minato shook his head and explained, "Before the teacher came, I had someone investigate his life experience. Before yesterday, he had been the domestic slave of General Moriguchi of the Kingdom of Thunder."
"Then how did he become the current commander of the Kingdom of Thunder?"
"The Kingdom of Thunder is in a state of distress due to our attack. In addition, teacher, you have captured the top brass in the army, and the remaining official positions are dominated by General Moriguchi. Maybe because of endangering his own life, Hidenori took the initiative to volunteer, and unexpectedly
I impressed the general and became the actual person in charge."
"No wonder you said he is very interesting and can be used by us."
Haruki's eyes showed a little surprise, Xiudian's experience was quite legendary.
The only thing that puzzled him was why he didn't take action earlier.
He thought about it, and the possible reason was that the critical moment had not been reached before. How could Moriguchi trust a domestic slave?
Only at this moment, he could only seek medical treatment urgently.
Qingshu stood up and said with a smile: "Let's go meet this fierce man from the Kingdom of Thunder for a while."
Minato was slightly startled.
A strong man descended from heaven?
It’s Teacher Haruki’s strange words again.
He had long been accustomed to it, so he immediately gave the order without saying anything.
With the actions of the Xuanjia Army, the entire army was fully operational.
Although Minato did not fully control the 150,000-strong army, he was able to control it indirectly through the Xuanjia Army.
The shocking movement woke up the army on the opposite side.
Hidenori, who was hidden among the mountains, raised his head.
He had previously been able to repel Minato's army precisely because of these low and uneven but extremely numerous mountain peaks.
With his amazing scheduling, he distributed hundreds of thousands of troops in various mountain peaks, built deep ditches and high fortresses, and with the help of bows and crossbows, almost connected the entire mountain range into one, forming a natural line of defense.
But Hidenori understands that the advantage is still no longer theirs in the Kingdom of Thunder.
The reason was the defeat of Yunyin Village.
This caused various ninja forces that originally served in the Kingdom of Thunder to flee.
Not even the twelve guardian ninjas were left behind.
Because as ninjas, they understand what it means far better than these nobles.
Hidenori can also understand.
The commander opposite, Namikaze Minato, is said to be an extremely powerful ninja.
If he does not pay attention to martial ethics, take assassination action.
They seem to have the upper hand, but in fact life and death depend on the preferences of others.
Xiudian narrowed his eyes slightly.
The army of the Country of Fire deployed in a very normal formation.
But in the face of such complex terrain, it is basically useless.
Sure enough, after a while, they divided into several groups and entered the defense line set up by Xiudian.
He looked at the army where Minato was, waited for a moment, and raised the flag.
The messenger left immediately.
Haruki and Minato were currently in the middlemost army.
A row of flaming arrows flew out from the mountain on the right and then fell.
"Enemy attack!"
Haruki and Minato didn't say anything, and the army behind them took action on their own.
Facing the arrow feathers, they used their shields to form a defensive array with considerable experience.
At this time, the sound of horse hooves sounded behind him.
I saw about three thousand cavalry, lined up two by two, rushing towards them at extremely fast speeds.
Qingshu is divided into fifteen shares according to the number of ten thousand.
At the same time, three thousand soldiers on each side poured out from both sides. In just a few minutes, they were surrounded.
Seeing this, other armies from the Fire Country in the distance wanted to come here for rescue.
But I saw arrows flying out of the surrounding peaks.
There are even huge rolling stones blocking the narrow passage.
It was only then that Qingshu noticed how terrible their position was.
It's literally in your pocket.
But unfortunately, the gap in strength cannot be smoothed out by strategy.
Minato raised his sword.
Ten thousand soldiers dropped their shields, opened their chests, and a set of armor covered their bodies at extremely fast speeds.
Exoskeleton power suit.
They are all Xuanjia troops.
The killing begins.
Haruki's figure flashed and appeared in front of the pale Hidenori.
His location is certainly very hidden.
But several contacts from the messenger exposed him.
Of course, the most important reason is Haruki's perception ability.
It can clearly restore the movement trajectory of the messengers and use this to estimate the center point.
"Are you Hidenori?"
"yes."
Xiudian was very cooperative.
As a domestic slave, he is best at surviving.
Haruki proved her worth to him by not taking direct action.
"Sir, what do you want me to do? Provide the remaining defenses of the Kingdom of Thunder? Or lead people to capture the metropolis?"
"Not bad, very smart."
Qingshu nodded with satisfaction.
Xiudian's performance satisfied him.
It seems that Minato can be freed from the heavy military duties.
Haruki brought up Hidenori, went to the two warring parties, and used chakra to order them to stop.
The killings of the Xuanjia Army frightened the army of the Kingdom of Thunder.
There was Xiudian's comfort again.
In just one day, all the remaining troops of the Kingdom of Thunder surrendered.
The mighty 310,000-strong army fought several battles from south to north, winning every battle. With thunderous momentum, they marched into the metropolis.
The soldiers guarding the gate fled.
Namikaze Minato climbed onto the city wall, cut down the flag that had been flying for thousands of years, and placed the Red Dragon Flag of the Natsu Organization.
