Many similar things happened in other places on the battlefield. When many Iwa ninjas were about to kill Konoha ninjas, the weapons in their hands would be frozen in place, causing them to expose their flaws and end up being killed by Konoha ninjas.
Counterattack.
The reason why this happened was that Zhuge Qingyun secretly used Magnetic Release to control the weapons of those rock ninjas.
"Damn you kid, you dare to be distracted in front of me!"
A Iwagakure Jonin who was fighting Zhuge Qingyun noticed that Zhuge Qingyun was a little distracted, quickly formed seals with his hands, and shouted coldly: "Earth Release·Big Rock Spear!"
"boom!!!"
A rock gun that was more than ten meters long and more than half a meter in diameter suddenly emerged from the ground and hit Zhuge Qingyun at an extremely fast speed, piercing him in one fell swoop.
"what are you laughing at?"
At the moment when the corners of the Iwagakure jounin's mouth slightly raised, a playful voice suddenly sounded from behind him, causing his pupils to shrink sharply.
"boom!!!"
Before Iwagakure Jōnin had time to counterattack, a Rasengan with thunder properties hit him hard on the back, sending him flying away and killing him completely.
"It's almost time to finish!"
After Zhuge Qingyun casually killed an Iwagakure Jōnin, he sensed the flying thunder god kunai scattered around the battlefield, and slowly drew out the Fuma Blade.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
I saw Zhuge Qingyun's figure disappearing in an instant, followed by sword lights emitting silvery cold light flashing past, and the heads of more than seventy Iwa ninjas who were fighting fiercely with Konoha ninjas flew high almost at the same time.
rise.
"Bang bang bang..."
Under everyone's disbelieving gaze, the headless corpses of more than seventy rock ninjas fell to the ground one after another, causing the entire battlefield to fall into an eerie atmosphere of silence.
Not only the Iwa ninja were shocked by Zhuge Qingyun's move, but even the Konoha ninjas were frightened by Zhuge Qingyun, and they all opened their mouths in shock.
You must know that although most of the rock ninjas who were instantly killed by Zhuge Qingyun were chuunin and genin, there were also a few jounin, including the elite jounin Hongtu.
Red Earth is the commander-in-chief of Iwagakure's advance force, so after the battle between the ninja forces of both sides, his opponent naturally became Orochimaru.
When Orochimaru noticed that Zhuge Qingyun had used the Flying Thunder God technique, he forcibly wrapped Hongtu around, giving Zhuge Qingyun the opportunity to kill him with a knife from behind.
"Master Hongtu..."
After an Iwagakure jounin recovered from the shock, he shouted in a panic: "Withdraw... withdraw quickly!"
"Run away!"
When the dozens of surviving rock ninjas heard this, the birds and beasts immediately dispersed, and each one used all their strength to escape towards the Earth Kingdom.
"Don't let these bastards escape, kill them all!"
When Orochimaru saw this, he hurriedly shouted and led the Konoha ninja to chase the fleeing Iwagakure.
Under the pursuit of Konoha ninjas, all the Iwagakure chuunin and genin were quickly hunted down, and only two Iwagakure jounin managed to escape into the Land of Earth.
In order to prevent running into the large army of Iwagakure ninjas, Orochimaru led the Konoha ninjas to pursue them to the border of the Land of Earth. He then chose to stop the pursuit and returned to the Land of Fire with Zhuge Qingyun and the others.
…
Because Zhuge Qingyun secretly used magnetic escape to help, the casualty rate of Konoha ninjas this time was not high, with less than twenty ninjas dead in total.
Compared to Iwagakure, whose entire army was almost wiped out, Konoha can be said to have achieved a great victory this time, and Orochimaru also immediately conveyed the good news back to Konoha.
Because Zhuge Qingyun played a great role in this battle, and the scene where he killed more than 70 rock ninjas in an instant was so shocking, the ninjas of Konoha also gave him a new title
——Silver flash!
On the other hand, when the two surviving Iwagakure jounin escaped back to Iwagakure Village, they immediately reported the details of the battle to the Third Tsuchikage.
After the Third Tsuchikage heard the news that the vanguard force had been wiped out, although he wanted to lead the army directly to attack Konoha Village, in the end he chose to stand still and endured his anger.
Iwagakure's vanguard force was originally used to test Konoha's reaction. If Konoha could not respond in time, the Third Tsuchikage would lead an army to directly invade the Land of Fire.
But now Iwagakure's vanguard force has ended up being wiped out. This shows that Konoha has long been prepared for Iwagakure, and the third Tsuchikage will not choose to fight Konoha head-on.
After all, Konoha Village is still one of the five major ninja villages. If the Third Tsuchikage insists on confronting Konoha, the final result will definitely be Iwagakure's defeat, and then other ninja villages will take advantage of it.
However, although the Third Tsuchikage has temporarily swallowed his anger, it does not mean that he will not protect him. Especially Zhuge Qingyun, who was so prominent in this battle, is even on the Third Tsuchikage's must-kill list.
…
"Okay! Great! Hahaha..."
In the office of the Hokage of Konoha Village, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but stood up after reading the latest information from the front line, and let out a burst of hearty laughter.
The sinister-looking Danzo frowned slightly when he saw the happy look of Sarutobi Hiruzen, and asked curiously: "Hiruzen, what happened?"
"See for yourselves! This is the battle report just sent by Orochimaru." Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and handed the scroll in his hand to Danzo.
Seeing this, the two advisors of Konoha Village, Mito Kadoen and Koharu Koharu, couldn't help but curiously came to Danzo's side and read the contents of the intelligence together.
After going to bed, Koharu couldn't help but smile after reading the information: "Great, Iwa Ninja will not dare to act rashly in the short term after suffering such a big defeat!"
Hearing this, Mito Kadoyan nodded and said: "I agree with this point, but just in case, let Orochimaru continue to guard the border, and come back when the situation becomes clearer!"
"..."
When Danzo heard the words of Koharu and Mito Kaden who had moved to bed, he looked happy and agreed on the surface, but deep down he looked very angry and entangled.
Logically speaking, Danzo, as a high-level official of Konoha Village, should feel very gratified and happy when he saw the news of Konoha Village's victory on the front line.
But Orochimaru was originally one of the candidates for the next Hokage, and now that he has made such a great contribution, his chances of becoming the Fourth Hokage have increased a lot, which is not what Danzo wants to see.
Although Danzo has always said that he is serving the Leaf Village, he values power more. In order to compete for the position of Hokage, he can sometimes betray the interests of the village.
