Looking at a detailed battlefield intelligence analysis in his hand, Onoki frowned because he felt familiar from the traces of that battlefield.
"It's very similar to the last scene. There are signs of fragmentation everywhere. If I guess correctly, it is probably the work of the same person."
"Damn it, who is this guy? Why is there no information about him at all? Even if it is Konoha's top secret information, there shouldn't be no news at all on this battlefield."
Unable to help but curse angrily, Ohnoki threw the intelligence document on the table.
After a while, Ohnoki took a deep breath and slowly calmed down, and a sharp cold light finally flashed in his eyes.
"Local wars continue to fall into disadvantages. In this case, the only solution is to have a real frontal decisive battle."
Once a decisive battle breaks out, almost all ninjas will gather together, and no matter what hidden troops are hidden, they will be exposed.
After the Second Ninja World War broke out, Sunagakure Village, Iwagakure Village, and Konoha Village all exercised restraint to delay the arrival of a direct decisive battle. After all, no one was willing to initiate a decisive battle easily.
But now, Konoha continues to gain the upper hand in local wars, Onoki gets the news, and even Sunagakure Village suffers a lot.
If we continue to fight a local war, we will obviously suffer losses all the way. In this case, the only thing left before us is a decisive battle.
…
The Land of Rain, Konoha Camp.
After dealing with the matter of the Iwagakure surprise attack force, Jiraiya felt relaxed all over and walked into the headquarters slightly casually.
But because I was too proud, I didn't look at the ground when I entered the door, so I tripped.
He fell headlong to the ground. Fortunately, Jiraiya was an elite jounin after all. With a push of his back foot, his whole body somersaulted in mid-air, and then landed firmly in front of Hatake Sakumo.
Hatake Sakumo: "..."
cough!!
Jiraiya coughed twice and felt that he was indeed a little carried away. Killing the Iwagakure surprise attack force actually had nothing to do with him.
"Sakumo-sama, this is a summary of the complete destruction of the Iwagakure surprise attack force."
"Um."
Hatake Sakumo nodded, reached out to take it, glanced at it and smiled, as if he had known it would be like this.
Seeing Hatake Sakumo's expression, Jiraiya became more and more surprised and couldn't help but ask: "That ANBU ninja is indeed terrifyingly powerful. Who is he?"
"Sorry, this news is still top secret."
Hatake Sakumo smiled at Jiraiya. In fact, it didn't matter even if he told Jiraiya, but the rules still had to be followed.
As for Tsunade, he knew it because Tsunade's matter had been discussed many times by him and Sarutobi Hiruzen. Tsunade was a link between Naito and the village.
"Top secret?!"
Jiraiya's eyes widened immediately. The identity of an ordinary ANBU could never bear the term top secret. There was no doubt that Naito's identity was extremely high even within the ANBU.
This made Jiraiya more and more confused about Yu Ye's identity. Logically speaking, he should know basically all the senior officials and powerful people in the village, but none of them seemed to match.
Orochimaru? Tsunade?
Apparently neither.
"Okay, don't think too much. If I'm not wrong, after the failure of Yanyin Village this time, a decisive battle should be launched."
"By then, you should be able to know who he is."
Hatake Sakumo said quietly to Jiraiya.
As soon as he heard that there would be a decisive battle next, Jiraiya's expression instantly became serious.
In a head-on decisive battle, it is obvious that all Konoha ninjas on this battlefield must gather together.
Moreover, it is estimated that it will also completely determine the direction of the Second Ninja War!
The mountain rain is about to come and the wind fills the building.
Not only in the Konoha camp of the Rain Country, but also in the Konoha Village of the Fire Country, the third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen also had a solemn expression at this time.
If he hadn't known that neither the Kazekage nor the Tsuchikage had personally set out to go to the battlefield of the Kingdom of Rain, he might have been standing in the Kingdom of Rain at this time.
"The decisive battle... is coming."
With a sigh, Sarutobi Hiruzen walked to the window and looked into the distance.
"With Yu Ye's current strength, he is extremely important in this decisive battle."
"But... can he really be trusted?"
I don't know when, Danzo returned to Konoha Village from the front line, and walked to Sarutobi Hiruzen with small steps.
"Yu Ye, after all, is a foreigner."
"Sarutobi, you can use him, but you must not give him power."
Danzo looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen extremely seriously and solemnly.
Sarutobi Hiruzen fell silent for a moment, looking at the sky outside, wondering what he was thinking.
…
At this moment.
However, Naito was not in Konoha's camp, but heading deep into the Land of Rain.
Although Naito didn't care much about the overall situation of the Second Ninja War, he could easily feel that a decisive battle was imminent and should not be far away.
Before this decisive battle, Naito decided to settle the affairs of Konan and Yahiko first.
The most important thing is that Naito wants to see if Konan and Yahiko have already encountered Nagato at this time.
Keep going.
Soon, Yu Ye returned to the place where he taught Konan and Yahiko to practice ninjutsu, but the place was empty and uninhabited.
After shaking his head, Yu Ye went to a nearby town.
However, after searching the entire town, no trace of Konan and Yahiko was found. Even after Yu Ye inquired, he did not get the slightest information.
It was as if the two of them just disappeared from the world!
"Strange... It would be understandable if Nagato suddenly disappeared from the world, but how could this happen to Konan and Yahiko?"
Yu Ye frowned, feeling a little confused.
At that moment, Yu Ye went around several nearby towns, hunting down some spies and scouts from other ninja villages, and at the same time he also gathered some information himself.
But there was still no trace of Yahiko and Konan.
But one thing that is certain is that they are definitely not dead, because they are no longer ordinary people, but ninjas.
If he was killed, there would be a big fuss. It is impossible to get no information like now.
It is possible that they are staying in a place far away from here now.
"In this case, there is nothing to do, but thinking about it, the next decisive battle will be on a large battlefield, so it shouldn't affect anything."
After taking a deep breath, Yu Ye shook his head and finally gave up the search.
However, just when Naito was about to return to the Konoha camp, he met a person who surprised him.
Orochimaru!
The two met in a small town. Orochimaru seemed to be on some mission and was returning to the Konoha camp.
Of course, Orochimaru used the transformation technique.
Naito didn't recognize this person as Orochimaru at first. It has to be said that Orochimaru's transformation technique is extremely perfect, or... Orochimaru may not be using ordinary transformation techniques at all, but a more advanced technique.
