337 As soon as I came back, I saw Tuanzang doing something!
Hearing the sudden sound, Xili paused and looked sideways at the person coming.
Namikaze Minato slowly approached Xili, organized his speech slightly and said, "The dragon veins should have completely disappeared, right?"
"However, you did not return to the future, which means that the connection point of the spell is on the Red Sand Scorpion."
"If you want to go back to the future, you need the Red Sand Scorpion."
It doesn't matter to Xi Li whether he kills the scorpion or not. He is just a defeated general. As long as he can go back, he doesn't mind letting the other side live.
"Can you find the magic connection point and send me back?"
Xi Li dispersed the dark gold flame in his hand and asked in a solemn voice.
Namikaze Minato did not answer Seeli, but turned to look at Scorpion.
"If my guess is correct, you have broken the dragon vein seal."
"It was moved instead, right?"
"The dragon vein seal is the connection point of the spell. You relied on it to come to this era, and you also need to rely on it to return to the future."
Hearing this, Scorpio's eyes flashed, but he remained silent.
Because what Namikaze Minato said is correct.
The Crimson Sand Scorpion's body was like a puppet and could not feel pain, but Xili's punch destroyed half of his body.
The combat power is completely out of proportion, and the opponent still has a golden flash.
If you can use it back as a bargaining chip.
Maybe that's good too
"It seems to be exactly what I guessed."
Scorpion's silence is the best answer, and Namikaze Minato has already found the answer.
If people from the future are related to this era, the flow of time will change dramatically. This is why Namikaze Minato wants to send Seeli and Scorpio away.
In addition, he will also use sealing techniques to erase the traces of the two of them.
Only in this way will the flow of time get back on track.
…
Three days have passed since Xili and Xie were swallowed by the purple light beam of the dragon vein.
While Kakashi and others brought the information back to Konoha Village, Sunagakure Village also received the news that the Bull Demon King had been killed.
After three days, the location of the Bull Demon King was still not found, so Luo Sha confirmed the authenticity of this information.
Not only did he give 30 million taels to Kakuzu, he also officially hired Kakuzu to deal with Konoha.
Rasa reorganized five brigades, that is, 5,000 sand ninjas, at the junction of the country of Chen Bingchuan and the country of wind, and faced off against the roots, ANBU, and a large group of Konoha ninjas led by Danzo.
The numerical gap between Suna Ninja and Konoha is huge, reaching 4:1.
However, Konoha's ninjas are much better in quality.
Whether it's a root or anbu, one team is enough to deal with three, four, or even more sand ninja teams of the same configuration.
It’s not that the Suna Ninja are too weak, Sunagakure Village is following the elite ninja route due to financial reasons.
The combat effectiveness of Sunagakure Village's troops is not weaker than that of Konoha's troops.
The so-called strength depends on who you compare with.
He is incomparable to the Konoha ANBU, and is only a 50-50 equal to the Konoha troops.
In the territory of Kawa no Kuni, Konoha has a large camp.
"Sir Danzo, the Suna Ninja has launched another attack. This is the fifth wave of attacks today. The troops on the front line have sent an urgent request for help."
A Konoha chuunin ran over in a hurry, and as soon as he entered the main tent, he said in a hurry.
Danzo's eyes darkened, with a look of displeasure on his face.
He doesn't like his subordinates to be so restless.
However, these were extraordinary times and he didn't bother to scold the other party.
Danzo received the letter asking for help, his expression uncertain.
These sand ninjas are really disgusting!
They were non-stop from morning to night, and relying on their large numbers, they even adopted wheel tactics to attack them in turns. Even if they couldn't defeat them, they could still be worn down bit by bit.
Luo Sha's idea is very simple and easy to guess.
But this was a conspiracy, and even though Danzo knew it was the opponent's plan, there was nothing he could do about it.
What can he do if there are few people?
The letter requesting additional troops has been sent back to Konoha, but the distant water cannot save the near fire.
Sand Hidden Village came prepared. The follow-up troops had already been assembled and were only waiting for Luo Sha's order to go to the battlefield.
But Konoha is different, the third generation only prepared a large combat force for Danzo.
The remaining roots are all Danzo's own.
As for the subsequent ANBU reinforcements, if they were not to hunt down Chiyo, they would not be sent out at all.
Even if they want to increase their troops, Konoha's side will still need time.
This is not playing a game. Just click the mouse and there will be a few masters leading a large number of people to support the front line. This is the real ninja world.
Konoha sent a large team to support, and the first thing that needed to be solved was the material problem.
This is the principle behind the saying that food and fodder should be used before troops and horses are used.
In addition, there are also ninja troop assembly time, marching time, etc.
"It seems we have to give up on the Kingdom of Sichuan."
Danzo was not a rookie. While he complained that the Third Generation's reinforcements were coming too slowly, he also understood that it took time for the Third Generation to mobilize the troops.
Two days in a hurry, three days in a hurry.
Only then can Konoha's reinforcements arrive.
Therefore, Danzo decided to use the Kawa Country as strategic depth and retreat bit by bit to delay the attack.
The final decisive battle will be held on the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Sichuan.
However, this alone is definitely not enough, because the strategic depth of Kawakuni is not enough to delay it for such a long time.
One thousand versus five thousand?
No matter how arrogant Danzo is, he will never do this.
so
"Is Kakashi back?"
A calculating look flashed across Danzo's eyes. Since the Suna Ninja are so energetic, let's find something for them to do!
For such a dangerous mission of sneaking behind enemy lines, Danzo would naturally not be able to send his own men.
He decided to let Kakashi lead the team.
The Third Generation's order was to have Kakashi, the ANBU and ANBU candidates support Danzo.
Although Kakashi and others are not directly under Danzo's control, Kakashi will still carry out the tasks assigned by Danzo regarding the Sand Ninja battlefield.
"They returned to the camp last night and are now waiting in the ANBU camp. It seems that the Hokage has not given them any new orders."
A Gen wearing a grimace mask said.
The corners of Danzo's lips curled up coldly.
He took out a scroll without hesitation, issued a new mission with a few strokes, stamped it and handed it to a Konoha chuunin who passed the order.
"Tell Kakashi that this is an important task to buy time for the main force, and it must be completed."
"yes!"
The Konoha chuunin who conveyed the order took the mission scroll, then turned around and left quickly.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether the task is completed or not.
The important thing is that procrastination is enough.
Danzo didn't care whether Kakashi led the team himself or sent people there, nor did he care whether the people performing the mission were alive or dead.
As long as he disrupts the Suna Ninja's attack rhythm and delays the attack, his goal will be achieved.
And at this moment
Loulan Ruins, in the abandoned Dragon Vein Cave.
A purple beam of light flashed.
Whoosh!
A black shadow jumped out quickly.
"Finally home!"
Xi Li looked around, but found no trace of anyone else. It seemed that Xie Xie did not come back on the same day as him.
