Chapter 493 Opening

As the sun rises high in the sky, in the central area of ​​the Kawa Country, a war between Konoha and Sunagakure is getting ready to begin.

This is a hilly area with uneven terrain, and a ring of low hills with a height difference of about a few meters or more than ten meters is located nearby, forming a picture of undulating mountains.

There are no trees around, the ground is covered with lush weeds, and there are several small rivers under some low hills. The scenery is quite pleasant at first glance.

The most important thing is that the view here is very broad. Although it is not a plain area, it is not far away.

Under his feet, there was grass up to his ankles. The fragrance of earth and the aroma of green grass reached the tip of his nose, making Lei Luo feel a little relieved. The slight tension on the eve of the decisive battle could not help but ease a little.

Looking up into the distance, on another high slope about a few kilometers away, you can faintly see the figures of countless Sunagakure ninjas, swarming like dense ants, crowding the end of the field of vision.

Because they had discovered the enemy's traces in advance, the Konoha ninja army stopped their advance as soon as they arrived here, stationed themselves on a relatively gentle slope, and quickly set up a formation to meet the enemy.

Behind Lei Luo, there were more than 1,000 people from the First Brigade and the Second Brigade, divided into two neat square formations and waiting. They were directly opposite the Sunagakure troops. They were the main force fighting against the Sand Ninja.

Shiranui Kusama's third brigade spread out and rushed to the left and right sides in an arc-shaped array. While strictly maintaining a safe position two kilometers away from the battlefield, they faintly surrounded the central area.

Unlike the First and Second Battalions, after the battle begins, the Third Battalion will not participate in the first wave of offensives. Instead, it will use long-range attacks around the battlefield to support it, and will not join the battle until Sunagakure is at a disadvantage.

Lei Luo was very confident in winning this battle, so he adopted the tactic of opening the situation with the main force first, and then finishing with miscellaneous troops to deal with the current war.

The purpose of doing this is still the same as before, to preserve Konoha's vitality as much as possible.

"Where is this?"

Because the landform of the shallow grassland that was the original battlefield was very different from what he remembered, Lei Luo looked around in the distance and asked Nara Shikaji next to him out of curiosity.

"This place is called Ishikawa Hill, and it is about fifteen or six kilometers away from Asakusa."

Nara Shikaji obviously understood what Lei Luo wanted to ask, so he reported such a number without hesitation, and then added:

"Sunagakure's movements are much faster than we thought. Lord Lei Luo, it seems that we can only choose to fight here."

The original plan was to choose the battlefield in the shallow grasslands instead of Ishikawa Hills. However, the plan could not keep up with the change. Before the march was completely completed, the Sunagakure troops were already approaching.

It seems that Namikaze Minato's preliminary preparations were in vain...

After pondering for a moment, Lei Luo decided not to worry about the geographical location. Anyway, the terrain of Ishikawa Hill is relatively flat. Although the terrain here is not as good as the shallow grassland, it is still better than any jungle terrain.

"Shiguro, Orochimaru."

After calling out, Aburame Shiguro and Orochimaru behind them immediately took a step forward and walked to Lei Luo.

"You guys just wait here while I go up first..."

Before Lei Luo finished speaking, Aburame Shiguro frowned and couldn't help but said: "Lei Luo, do you want to call the formation again? With all due respect..."

"Sunagakure suffered such a big loss two years ago, I don't think they will play one-on-one with you."

"If you just get close like this, you're likely to be attacked."

Aburame Shiguro's worries are not unreasonable. After all, the Third Kazekage and the senior management of Sunagakure don't look like they are mentally retarded. Since the enemy has already learned a painful lesson, the possibility of doing it again is naturally extremely low.

"Siege?" he repeated in a low voice.

Lei Luo thought for a moment, then turned his head and glanced at the members of the Guards behind him, especially looking at the face of the leader, Matt Dai, for a while.

"Dai, we will act according to the opportunity later."

"If Sunagakure dares to disobey the rules, then you will kill me and kick several Sunagakure masters to death."

Thanks to having witnessed Lei Luo's countercurrent, at this moment, facing Lei Luo's request, Matt Dai just nodded seriously and replied without a trace of hesitation:

"Don't worry, Lei Luo, I'm ready to wake up."

Orochimaru quietly looked at Matt Dai. Although he didn't say anything, he complained in his heart: You are not really going to die. How can you be so enlightened?

Perhaps sensing Orochimaru's strange gaze, Matt Dai suddenly turned his head and looked at Orochimaru for a second, then suddenly opened his mouth, bared his teeth, and an excited smile flashed across his face.

That feeling was as if because the war was approaching, Matt Dai habitually wanted to liven up the tense atmosphere in the field as before.

Then, of course, Matt Dai saw Orochimaru looking at him with a strange look, as if his eyes were silently telling: Are you sick?

"Okay, I'm going." After the brief words, there was a violent airflow, a circular shock wave slowly spread, and then, a deafening sonic boom came.

Aburame Shiguro, Orochimaru, Nara Shikashi and others all took a step back. Only Matt Dai remained in place, motionless.

Bang bang bang...

Moving forward at twice the speed of sound, with an average speed of more than 600 meters per second, it continuously breaks through the sound barrier like a Boeing airplane and travels through dense, sea-like air.

The distance of thousands of meters was instantly spanned. After the sword-like figure flashed past, all the sound waves were left behind, and the world seemed to come to a standstill at this moment.

Lei Luo's eyes flickered with gray light, and in just a few moments, he arrived in front of the two armies' formation and stood on a raised mound.

At this time, the series of afterimages behind have not dissipated.

In front of him, the Sunagakure troops were no more than 100 meters away. Lei Luo could even see the Third Kazekage and other senior Sunagakure leaders. Judging from their expressions, they seemed to have not noticed that he had arrived.

With a sneer, Lei Luo cleared his throat slightly, planning to ask the Third Kazekage to come out for a duel like last time, and then defeat the opponent to improve his own morale.

"who……"

Unexpectedly, as soon as the first word was uttered, his keen intuition instantly sensed a strong murderous aura suddenly coming from the direction... from the side and rear.

With a flash of eyes, Lei Luo turned around without thinking. After two or three steps, he disappeared from the place and rushed towards the direction of the murderous aura in the blink of an eye.

The countless ninjas in front of the two armies, except for the hundreds of afterimages lingering in the field, could not detect where Lei Luo's real body was, and they had no idea...

The battle has already begun.
