First there was a huge roar, and then there was the roar when the lightning touched the ground and other things or people.
Toneri's Thunder Release has always been the focus of everyone present. Seeing the huge thunder and lightning unicorn hanging above their heads falling, almost everyone stopped and watched.
From their eyes, they could see the bursting thunder and the sand ninjas entangled in the scattered thunder.
In the end, Luo Sha's first choice was to protect himself. At the same time, to the best of his ability, the sand ninjas not far from him were also protected by his gold sand.
Even he himself didn't have the confidence to survive such a lightning escape. If Shiren's speed hadn't been slightly slower, giving him more time to prepare, he might have died at that moment.
He is able to allocate part of his strength to protect others, which is already the most benevolent and righteous thing.
Of course, the Sand Ninjas couldn't always stand still and wait for Toneri's attack, so avoiding as much as possible was their last struggle.
A huge pit dozens of meters wide and several meters deep, exuding the smell of burning and barbecue, appeared in everyone's sight, along with a large number of gold nuggets of various shapes.
Under the powerful high-temperature thunder and lightning, all the gold sand in Luo Sha was melted and reorganized into gold nuggets, which no longer looked like gold sand. Even if he had Magnetic Release, it would not be that easy to control it again.
And, is he still alive now?
No one knows...
Many sand ninjas who survived this attack looked at the figure suspended in the sky with unconcealable horror in their eyes.
No, it should be said that it is timid.
Especially when you see those cat-eye-like pupils, those indifferent eyes without a trace of emotion.
How many people died under this move "Immortal Technique-Thunder Escape Qilin"?
Such a large-scale attack, in the center of the attack, without a strong enough defense force, there is no doubt that even the Jonin will have no chance of survival.
And the people affected almost all have the same ending.
A conservative estimate is that there are eight hundred, if not one thousand, sand ninjas who died under this Kirin.
This is such an exaggerated destructive power. If Toneri's release speed can be faster, the Suna ninjas can concentrate more, and Luosha's defense ability is worse, if this move continues, it is estimated that more than 4,500 Sand ninjas will be killed.
A third of it needs to be folded here.
However, even if it did not cause such great damage, the Sand Ninjas were still afraid, and the desire to fight in their hearts had been reduced to the lowest level.
In other words, morale has dropped to the lowest level.
Even though they still have a certain numerical advantage now, they are still no match for Konoha.
The morale of one side is high and the morale of the other side is low.
Morale is something that cannot be seen or touched, but it can make up for the gap in numbers and strength to a certain extent.
"Toneri-sama!! Toneri-sama!!"
"Toneri-sama!!"
"Toneri-sama!!"
"..."
Such cheers rang out from the Konoha camp.
After the thunder unicorn fell, the dark clouds in the sky seemed to have been consumed by Toneri. Even the rain stopped and slowly dissipated.
In the sky above the Land of Rain, a very rare ray of sunshine showed up.
Just like it is rare to encounter rain in the desert of the Kingdom of Wind, it is not easy to encounter the appearance of sunshine once in the Kingdom of Rain.
And this ray of sunlight shone on Toneri who was in mid-air, and it looked like he split the sky with one person's power.
In the huge pit directly below, in the center, under a huge gold nugget, wisps of fine quicksand slowly flowed out, slowly condensing to form the appearance of a person.
As the appearance gradually took shape, Luo Sha's embarrassed appearance was revealed in front of everyone.
At this moment, his heart was also filled with shock. If he hadn't given up on gold sand at the last moment and instead used ordinary sand to protect himself, he probably wouldn't have survived when the hard steel hit Toshiro's Thunderbolt Kirin.
Although under high temperature, ordinary sand grains will instantly turn into transparent glass-like silicon crystals, but at least there is no electricity.
After hiding in the sand, he barely escaped.
Standing on the ground and looking towards Toneri above, he murmured: "Is this the strength of Konoha Aangmao?"
Konoha Cangmao!
Luo Sha did not deliberately lower his voice. In this environment where the huge thunderbolt fell and the entire audience was shocked and silent, it was not surprising for a ninja to hear his words.
They learned about Toneri's other identity, Konoha Aangmao!
After Konoha White Fang, there was another Konoha Anbu ninja who used short swords, and Konoha Aangmao who had a good reputation in the entire ninja world. Unexpectedly, he was the person in front of him.
The opponent is not only good at using swordsmanship, but he is also a terrifying lightning escape ninja.
As Rasa's words spread, the ninjas on the Konoha side also knew Toneri's ANBU code name.
The only ANBU ninja after Konoha White Fang who has maintained a 100% mission completion rate in two years, the lone ANBU ninja who is quite famous among Konoha ANBU!
"Konoha Blue Cat!! Konoha Blue Cat!!"
"Lord Aangmao!!"
"Lord Aangmao!!"
"..."
At this point, Toneri's codename of "Aangmao" was finally known to people, just like the former White Fang of Konoha became known to people after an earth-shattering battle.
But the difference with White Fang is that Toneri killed nearly a thousand Sand Ninja with one move, while White Fang fought one against three, three famous shadow-level experts, and successfully killed two of them.
In terms of performance, White Fang's performance is more convincing.
Moreover, anyone with a discerning eye can also see that Toneri took advantage of the lightning in the sky, otherwise the destructive power of this ninjutsu would not be so powerful.
This is the difference between White Fang and Cang Mao.
But at this moment, Konoha needs a hero, a hero who can not only intimidate ninjas from other countries, but also bring more confidence to his own ninjas.
At this moment, Toneri has undoubtedly become such a person, just like the role played by Konoha White Fang during the Second Ninja War.
"retreat!!!"
Chiyo Sanglao's feeble voice sounded in the ears of many ninjas in Sunagakure Village.
It seemed so powerless and helpless.
In fact, even if Sunagakure Village suffered such heavy losses, its overall strength is still not inferior to Konoha, and even has a slight advantage.
However, if the formation is broken up, it can be gathered again, but if morale is broken, it is not so easy to raise it again.
There is no way to improve morale, it can even be said to be very simple, that is to kill Toneri who is the culprit of all this, or to kill Orochimaru, the commander-in-chief of Konoha this time.
It's just easy to say, but no one here can do it.
Are you counting on Rasa who was just defeated by Toneri?
Or is it Chiyo who has been held back by Orochimaru?
Neither is possible.
The only thing that can be done at this moment is to retreat, organize manpower, and launch an attack later.
It is estimated that the fear in their hearts will not be erased so easily in a short period of time.
Fortunately, the biggest losses in Sunagakure Village this time were the genin and chunin troops. Although the jounin also suffered some losses, it was not as big as expected.
Moreover, the Jonin's endurance was much stronger than that of the Genin. After Chiyo spoke and found the backbone, he quickly took action to gather troops and manpower.
"The jounin should use more force and escort the genin to retreat as much as possible!"
Chiyo fought and retreated while also coordinating and commanding all the Sand Ninja troops.
"I said, Elder Qianyo, are you ignoring my existence too much?"
Orochimaru's hoarse voice sounded.
A snake inadvertently shot out from his sleeve and bit Chiyo's arm.
Ding--
A crisp and sweet voice sounded.
Orochimaru raised his eyebrows when he heard the sound, and looked at Chiyo in surprise, especially on her arm, which was supposed to be bitten by a poisonous snake just now.
At this time, there were two small holes, and even the venom was still there, but no blood was seen. Even the poison developed by Orochimaru was not injected into her body.
Catching Orochimaru's dazed moment, Chiyo controlled the ten Chikamatsu people to quickly retreat, leading the Suna ninja troops to retreat.
Seeing Chiyo escape from his attack range, Orochimaru was not angry, but showed his meaningful smile, which meant that his excited tongue stretched out again, gently licking his slightly dry self.
lips.
"This old woman is really interesting. She actually wants to do something to herself. I'm starting to appreciate her a little bit."
He murmured and watched Chiyo leave.
The person in the air also slowly fell down and looked at Luo Sha.
There is a smile on the face, the mouth is slightly open, and the mouth shape is...
Cooperation continues!
Luo Sha couldn't help but frown after understanding the tone of Shi Shi's mouth.
Luo Sha was originally completely disdainful of Shi Ren's words and the cooperation he mentioned, but now his heart was shaken.
Cooperate?
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, he threw it out of his mind. Now was not the time to think about this. The most important thing was to escort the Sunagakure troops back and make up for the losses caused by his defeat.
This time, 4,500 people from Sunagakure Village attacked Konoha's 3,000-man army, and they were actually defeated, with thousands of people lost!
This is definitely a huge loss, a loss for which it is difficult to shirk responsibility.
There is no doubt that Chiyo, as the commander-in-chief, has to bear the greatest responsibility no matter what, and the responsibility he has to bear when fighting against Toneri is not small.
If you want to get rid of such a stain, you can only reorganize and attack Konoha again.
Sunagakure Village's first trial attack ended in a disastrous defeat and suffered heavy losses. The next attack would not be that simple.
However, Toneri's offensive method this time, this ninjutsu that shocked the ninja army of Sunagakure Village, Rasa and Chiyo alone could see the skills used by his thunder escape. Next time, he would like to take advantage of nature.
There won't be such a good opportunity.
Toneri fell from the sky, Orochimaru appeared beside him, and the two of them looked at the Nakasa ninja who quickly retreated from a distance.
Orochimaru always had a smile on his face, watching the light blue eyeshadow on Toneri's face gradually fade away, but the amazement in his eyes never dissipated.
"Jun Sheren, is this your immortal mode? It really surprises me.
It seems that we need to re-examine the old guys’ ridiculous words. At critical moments, this so-called immortal mode is still quite useful.”
There was unabashed interest in the voice and words full of magnetism.
Toneri grinned and said calmly: "If Mr. Orochimaru wants to learn, the student is willing to offer it."
Hearing this, Orochimaru slowly turned his head, glanced at Toneri, and slowly smoothed his hair, "Forget it, I prefer to do my own research."
Things that you have researched yourself are the most reliable. Orochimaru is like this, and Toneri is not the same.
After saying that, he looked at the debris all over the ground, Sunagakure Village, Konoha's, humans, animals and even puppets.
"This is war..."
Shiren sighed softly.
"Yes, this is war. Do you understand why humans are so fragile? In front of chakra, ninjutsu, taijutsu, and poison, the human body is too fragile, right?"
"No doubt... I'm just busy."
Immediately afterwards, Orochimaru began to organize Konoha's ninjas to clean up the battlefield and clean up the traces.
As the victor, the only advantage of the Konoha ninjas is that they can take back the bodies of their companions.
This is really sad but something that must be fought for.
Toneri began to organize the medical ninja troops who had been waiting behind the troops to treat the wounded.
At this moment, the ninjas of Konoha were freed from the joy of victory.
Winning is a win, but it is only temporary, and too many companions died in this war, and the original joy was all replaced by the pain of this moment.
Gradually, cries of pain began to sound. After losing the enemy, they gritted their teeth and endured the pain. Now that they had lost the pillar, they could not bear it anymore.
From this point of view, among all the cries of ghosts and howls of wolves, this place looks more like a Shura field.
The only thing that makes people feel a little warm is probably the ray of sunshine that finally breaks through the clouds and shines out.
...
"Sir Toneri! The patient here has lost too much blood and needs help!"
"Sir Toneri, this patient's wound is infected and requires a large-scale resection!"
"Sir Toneri, someone here has stopped heartbeating and needs emergency treatment!"
"Lord Toneri..."
Others could have a good rest after this battle, but Shiren, the deputy director of the medical department and the battlefield medical commander, had to send back the work he was busy with in the medical department after making great achievements.
In a special tent.
Inside the huge tent, seriously injured patients were lying on makeshift medical beds.
The person lying on the ground was relatively lightly injured.
But that's only relatively speaking.
Not all of the one hundred medical ninjas have the ability to perform major surgeries, and there are even some injuries that only Toneri can perform.
The people responsible for helping Toneri are the three medical ninjas he used to be in the third team. Now they manage more than thirty people each, so they can share Toneri's pressure.
What is busier than the inside of the medical tent is the group of people outside the tent who are waiting for their friends, brothers, lovers, etc., waiting for them to come out alive.
Next to the medical ninja tent, there is a larger tent, which is the medical tent. People who are out of danger will be sent here, and specialized medical ninjas will take care of them and clean up minor injuries.
Almost half of the hundred medical ninjas are busy in this tent.
What these people are waiting for is that every person sent out is someone they know.
It is as if this medical tent is hell, and those who walk out of the tent are walking out of hell.
Of course, some people are cured, but of course some people cannot survive the dangerous period.
These people will be collected by medical ninjas who are responsible for burying corpses, and then handed over to Toneri, and then transported back to Konoha, and finally claimed by each family.
Generally speaking, civilians also have hero funerals held by Konoha.
It's just that this time the three thousand Konoha troops are different. Among the ninjas this time, there are many ninjas from the two powerful families of Hyuga and Uchiha. As long as their bodies can be found, they all need to be buried in their respective clans.
The exclusive purpose is to prevent the family's blood inheritance from leaking out.
However, even if you want to collect the body, you need to return the body to Konoha, not on the battlefield.
Before going back, these corpses will be sealed in sealing scrolls, and will either be managed by Toneri who is in charge of the medical department, or by the commander-in-chief Orochimaru.
And these are the default rules on the battlefield.
From the end of the war to the end of the treatment, it took a day and a night.
But when Toneri left the medical tent with a haggard look on his face, he received respectful looks from everyone.
They all tacitly agreed not to call him, because they all knew that their master was very tired, and asking him to reply or nod would consume his energy.
This is the prestige that Tonero has quickly established through this battle, on this battlefield, and among the remaining Konoha troops who don't know whether there are 2,000 people.
That’s why it is said that the battlefield is cruel, but it is also the place where heroes are most likely to appear!
At this moment, at least Sheren has become a hero in the hearts of these people!
Arrive at the camp of Commander-in-Chief Orochimaru.
In order to wait for him, the meeting that should have started as soon as the battle was over had to wait until he finished treatment.
Dragging the tired body.
This time I was really tired.
Obviously after releasing the magic that shocked all Suna Ninja, he was a little exhausted, but he insisted on using medical ninjutsu for a day and a night.
That feeling of being hollowed out, that feeling of being hollowed out more than a dozen times a night, it was clear that Toner was still in his developmental stage, but he still had to bear the pressure that his age should not bear.
So, this young man just needs to exercise restraint.
If you don't restrain yourself when you are young, I'm afraid it will be difficult to persevere even if you want to be strong in the future.
Do you really think that everyone can be like Hiruzen Sarutobi and give birth to a son in his forties?
When you are young, you don't know how precious chakra is. When you are old, you can only sigh in vain.
"You're here!" Orochimaru said when he saw Toneri walking into the tent.
The exhausted Toneri just nodded. He just wanted to take a nap and did not want to do anything else. Even with the help of the second tail in his body, he could not hold on any longer.
However, he still had to attend this post-war meeting, regardless of his identity or the strength he showed on the battlefield.
Sit down at the first seat to the right of Orochimaru.
"Now that Shiren is here, let's start by counting the human losses this time."
