The war zone between Konoha and Iwa Ninja is full of trenches.
Iwa Ninja, who is good at Earth Release Ninjutsu, creates very beautiful fortifications. On the flat grassland, the ravines dug out are as natural as nature, and the defensive performance makes Konoha's reconnaissance ninjas not dare to attack too rashly at close range.
Investigation.
Because there are a lot of traps in conjunction with the trenches.
The war area is located in the middle of the Kingdom of Grass, and it is the early winter season again. The snow from the previous few days has quickly melted away with the brief rise in temperature, revealing the bare surface of the ground.
At this time, outside the neat trenches of the Iwa Ninja, in a hidden depression far away, three Konoha reconnaissance ninjas were carefully observing the direction of the Iwa Ninja camp.
"How is it? Are there any unusual movements in the Iwa Ninja camp today?" asked the leading ninja of the reconnaissance team.
Next to him, a ninja from the Hyuga clan was standing, opening his Byakugan and looking into the distance.
After hearing the captain's inquiry, he closed his Byakugan and shook his head in disappointment: "This place is beyond the furthest detection distance of my Byakugan. I can only confirm that the periphery of the Iwa Ninja camp is the same as the previous two days, and there is no abnormality...
…”
The team leader seemed to have expected this answer.
He smiled helplessly and said: "There is nothing we can do about it. This place is already as close as we can get. If we get any closer, we may be discovered or enter a trap area."
After a series of fierce battles before, the fighting between the two sides has slowed down a bit. During the confrontation, the only occasional battles were small-scale battles such as encounters between some reconnaissance teams.
Their three-person reconnaissance team is just a microcosm.
The Iwa Ninjas suddenly reduced their forces, so when Konohagakure wanted to pursue them, they found that stable camps, trenches, and a large number of trap areas had already been laid out behind them...
If you fail to complete the task, it's natural to go back like this.
At this time, the team leader and the Hyuga clan ninjas couldn't help but turn their eyes to the side, the teammate who had been silent, wearing a high collar and sleeves and wearing sunglasses.
Buzz~
At this time, there happened to be a small sound of insects in the air, and then a flying insect with a unique shape appeared in front of everyone. After hovering for a while, it landed on the finger of the sunglasses ninja.
"...The information sent back by the destroyer bugs is that everything is business as usual."
After communicating skillfully, the sunglasses ninja took back the bug and replied calmly.
The other two people breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
"As expected, I really don't understand what Iwa Ninja is thinking..." The team leader quickly took out a note from his arms, and then wrote down the information that needed to be sent back.
At the same time, he couldn't help but jokingly said: "You Aburame clan are still reliable. No matter what kind of environment, there will be no restrictions..."
The ninja in sunglasses pursed his lips and did not answer.
The Hyuga clan on the other side was not happy and retorted: "Captain, what do you mean by this?"
"With such a long distance, didn't your sensory ninjutsu just fail to work?"
…
…
Konoha Camp.
In the main tent, several Konoha elite ninjas who were temporarily responsible for frontline command were analyzing the military situation.
Sitting around the simple desk, in addition to the captains of each unit, there were also several people with special identities. They were either intelligence transmitters or high-level combatants.
Not long after, after the last set of reports from the frontline reconnaissance team came, everyone started talking.
"It seems that Iwa Ninja is ready to fight to the end..."
"This battle is really unpleasant. I really want to rush over and kill all those guys."
The voice of the main war faction is obviously not quiet, but after all, it can only be said.
Because they have received orders from the village and are on standby for the time being.
The frontline troops are roughly divided into four teams. In addition to the three team captains currently participating in the combat meeting, there is also a team leader responsible for logistics.
"Tsk, tsk, I heard that the village has temporarily pressed the strategy of sending reinforcements. What is the reason? Do you know? Jiraiya..."
A man with pale skin, golden eyes and long black hair asked in a hoarse voice at the table.
While he was speaking, he glanced at the white-haired middle-aged man on the other side, as if he felt that only he would know the answer to this question.
"Reinforcements? Are they real?"
"If there are reinforcements, we will be able to defeat the Iwa Ninja easily..."
Orochimaru's words were quickly discussed heatedly by several team captains. They obviously knew the battle ahead better than the headquarters in Konoha Village.
Even a reinforcement force of only one or two hundred people is enough to reverse the occupation in the current war.
So everyone was very confused after hearing Orochimaru say that the village had not adopted a strategic plan to send reinforcements.
For a moment, almost everyone in the camp turned their attention to Jiraiya, as if they wanted to get an answer from him.
Facing this scene, Jiraiya couldn't help but feel a headache.
I couldn't help frowning, and sighed in my heart: Orochimaru is really well-informed about the news. He even knows the contents of the recent high-level meeting in the village...
"Ahem, the top management of the village has indeed discussed the matter of reinforcements.
However, it seems that due to other concerns, it has not been implemented yet.
What we have to do now is to stabilize the front line and keep an eye on the movements of the Iwa ninja on the other side..."
Facing everyone's puzzled looks, Jiraiya had no choice but to give a truthful explanation. Then, he suddenly remembered something and turned to the Konoha ninja who was responsible for receiving and transmitting information and asked: "By the way, recently
Where is the Grass Ninja Village?"
"Have they added more troops?"
At the conference table, the Konoha intelligence ninja suddenly shook his head and said in a slightly sarcastic tone: "These idiots are very cunning and cunning."
"Sending a squadron of grass ninjas to assist the rock ninjas is already the limit."
"It is absolutely impossible for them to invest more troops..."
As this information ninja said, the grass ninjas of the Land of Grass are indeed like grass ninjas. This time the Iwa Ninja took advantage of the momentum to attack Konoha and joined forces with the Iwa Ninja without any hesitation.
It's just like previous ninja wars. After all, their strength cannot keep up with the five major countries, and the number of ninjas participating in the war is limited.
In most cases, the work is done but no efforts are made...
The small countries that live in the cracks between the big powers wave the flag and shout with whichever side becomes stronger. This is the consistent strategy of the Grass Country in previous wars. And the big countries that usually unite with them also understand their situation very well.
It won't force them too much.
After all, you may not know if they follow you to attack Konoha this time, or they may follow Konoha to attack you next time...
