There are currently no reinforcements in Konoha, but Toneri estimates that reinforcements from Sunagakure Village will arrive on the battlefield soon.
And as time goes by, the deterrent effect of Shiren's first amplified move will become weaker and weaker.
The situation is gradually heading in a bad direction.
"So, in order to reduce the pressure on the other two battlefields and at the same time reduce the pressure on our own side, it is time to take dangerous measures and go deep behind enemy lines to destroy their supply lines."
Orochimaru looked around the audience and expressed what he was thinking at the moment.
If the supply line of Sunagakure Village can be completely destroyed, it can delay the battlefield of Rain Country for a lot of time.
In fact, Orochimaru also sent someone to contact Hanzo, the leader of Amegakure Village, hoping that he could help Konoha fight against Sunagakure Village.
But Hanzo is not a fool. When the situation is still unclear, it is obviously not a good choice to rashly join the battle in Dayin Village.
So he simply found an excuse to reject Orochimaru's request, and stayed alone in the Land of Rain, watching from the sidelines.
As for what the residents of the Kingdom of Rain will face, he is not concerned about it for the time being.
If Orochimaru's ideas and proposals succeed, it will definitely be a good thing for Konoha.
But this is obviously not an easy task, and not everyone has the ability to complete this task.
Everyone in the tent looked at Orochimaru and Toneri, the master and disciple pair.
Noticing everyone's attention, Orochimaru had a faint smile on his face.
"This is not a simple task. To complete it, you need to be at least a Jonin or above. Do you have any good candidates to recommend?" Orochimaru asked.
For a moment, the people in the tent fell into silence.
It's one thing to have someone chosen, but it's another thing to say it.
This mission is obviously extremely risky. If you recommend anyone, if the other person does not come back, the person you recommended will definitely be jointly and severally liable.
However, some people have no such concerns.
For example, the person sitting in the first seat to the left of Orochimaru is Nara Shikaku!
"I think Toneri is a very good choice, and the Konoha Aangmao is also a strong enough deterrent to the Sand Ninjas at this time."
Shikaku fiddled with the pen in his hand, not looking at Toneri to avoid being frightened by him.
Just as he thought, Toneri was staring at Nara Shikaku with his sharp little eyes, breathing heavily from his nose, and making a "click" sound when he squeezed his hands.
"Ahem... seconded."
"Seconded!"
"Seconded."
"..."
The people in the tent were either admiring the special structure of the top of the tent, or counting the number of hairs on the heads of the companions next to them. In short, they just didn't look at the other person.
These guys!
In this regard, Sheren felt helpless.
Although it looked like Nara Shikaku had put this difficult task on his head, in fact, even if Nara Shikaku didn't say anything, only he could take on this task and he was qualified to take it on.
Others either don't have a high success rate, or they just risk their lives.
Nara Shikaku, who had seen through this a long time ago, would use this method to slightly disgust Toneri, in order to avenge his "deep hatred" of making him wash the dishes every time.
Hum hum——
You are destined to wash this bowl for the rest of your life!
Sheren thought viciously in his heart.
As a former captain, only Feha can speak with weight to Nara Yoshino. As long as he speaks a few more words and imparts some so-called "charioteer experience", Nara Shikaku will definitely have good results.
As if he had a premonition that something bad was about to happen to him, Lu Jiu's body trembled subconsciously.
Little did he know that this was just a little revenge on Toneri, and he made it clear that Toneri had a task that he couldn't refuse, but he would probably have to spend his whole life doing endless dishes and housework.
A smile also appeared on Orochimaru's cold face.
It is not an easy thing to see someone else suffer.
"It seems that this is what everyone expects. Mr. Sheren, please prepare well."
"Yes..." Shiren responded helplessly.
But then he continued, "However, the uncertainty is too high for me to do this task alone. It would be best if you can provide me with a few helpers, the kind who are truly capable."
As he spoke, he glanced at Nara Shikaku gently.
It's not that I have to choose him. The three of them, Zhu Lu Die, are the strongest together. When they are separated, the effect is not that powerful.
I just want to see if he can "recommend" a few more people to test his character.
But how could Nara Shikaku's mind do such a stupid thing?
"You choose yourself. Every ninja in the entire camp is within your choice."
Before Shiren could speak, someone stood up.
"I'll go, I think with my ability, I should be able to help Lord Sheren."
There are still people who willingly accept this kind of mission?
Toneri looked at the speaker with some curiosity. What caught his eye was a plain but resolute face, and what attracted the most attention were his eyes.
The pure white kernels are almost indistinguishable from the whites of the eyes, but the pupils in the eyes can still be distinguished.
Roll your eyes!
It was the Byakugan, one of the two eyes he wanted to study most, the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan!
However, what he got on the battlefield were the corpses of members of the Hyuga clan, and the caged bird destroyed their eyes the moment they died.
As for the people of the Hyuga clan who can sit in this tent, the only ones who are qualified are the two sons of the Hyuga clan leader, Hyuga Hizashi and Hyuga Hizashi.
"Hizashi!"
Just when this man stood up, sitting next to him was also a member of the Hyuga clan, and even looked almost exactly the same, it was Hyuga Hizashi!
Then the person who stood up to take over the task should be a member of the branch family, Hinata Hizashi's younger brother who was struck by the Caged Bird Curse Seal, Hinata Hizashi!
A trace of surprise flashed in Toneri's eyes, and he didn't know why he wanted to participate in this mission.
In fact, even his brother Hinata Hizashi doesn't know why Hizashi chose to participate in this mission.
Hearing Hizu's voice, Hizashi turned his head and said with a smile, "Brother, let me represent the Hyuga clan for the time being."
Hearing this, Hinata Hizu was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became a little complicated.
Hyuga Hizashi and Hyuga Hizashi are two inseparable brothers. They were born together, grew up together, went to school together, grew stronger together, became jounin together, and went to the battlefield together.
The connection between the two people is almost inseparable.
However, these two almost identical people have completely different destinies.
Hyuga Hizashi, who was born a few seconds later, was only a member of the branch family after all. As a clan member, and could even be said to be the only candidate for the next generation of Hyuga clan leader, Hizashi did not have many choices.
For example, he was not qualified to participate in such an extremely dangerous mission.
The eyes of Orochimaru and Toneri flowed between the two of them. They also knew a lot about the nonsense of the Hyuga clan.
Especially for the pair of brothers in front of them who have a very good relationship. As they grow up, they gradually gain a certain reputation in Konoha.
Some people even lamented that the two of them will bring the Hyuga clan to new heights.
Hinata Hizashi and Hinata Hizashi communicated with each other through their eyes. In the end, their expressions were gentler, but their eyes were more stubborn and Hizashi won.
Watching the two brothers make their decision, Orochimaru nodded, "What do you think? The Byakugan of the Hyuga clan has incredible abilities."
"Since the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan is willing to participate, of course it's the best."
Since Hyuga Hizashi has said that he temporarily represents the Hyuga clan, then of course the Uchiha clan, which is also a wealthy family, cannot fall behind.
Orochimaru's eyes glanced at the Uchiha clan sitting on the other side intentionally or unintentionally, but his main gaze still fell on the face of the leader, Uchiha Fugaku.
Fugaku, who is around twenty years old, can already represent the Uchiha clan on the battlefield, which shows his status within the Uchiha clan.
"In that case, I will also apply to participate in this mission!"
Uchiha Fugaku said directly.
In fact, in the eyes of the Uchiha clan, the Hyuga clan looks down upon them.
Even though the Hyuga clan is one of the two wealthy families known as Konoha with them, the Uchiha clan does not regard the Hyuga clan as an existence that can keep pace with them.
At least so far, the Uchiha clan has not thought about it this way.
Occupying the most central area of Konoha, the clan has a large number of strong men who control the security of the entire Konoha and have many vassals.
No matter from any aspect, the Hyuga clan is incomparable to the Uchiha clan.
Even though the top management of Konoha has been supporting the Uchiha clan all these years, hoping that after the decline of the Senju clan, the Uchiha clan will not become dominant in Konoha, there are still some gaps in the support over the years.
However, the Hyuga clan is still quite successful, at least they have made little progress in recent years.
Originally, the Uchiha clan looked down upon them, but their arrogant character led them to respond to the Hyuga clan who kept provoking them.
Over time, the two families developed a state of competition that the top management of Konoha most wanted to see.
"Okay! In that case, the mission secret of this sneak attack on the supply route of Sunagakure Village will be handed over to the three of you, with Toruto as the captain, and Hyuga Hizashi and Uchiha Fugaku will follow the command!"
"Yes!!" the three of them responded.
Uchiha Fugaku is much older than Toner and Hinata, and he also holds the position of squad leader in the Konoha Police Department.
However, the Uchiha clan does not often participate in missions, so no one knows his true strength.
But since he and Toneri first met, he has been a jounin. After so many years, his strength should not be low.
And Toneri also knows that Uchiha Fugaku has the talent of Mangekyō Sharingan, and he will have the opportunity to open the Mangekyō Sharingan in the future.
I just don’t know if it’s reached now.
"You all go and prepare. It's best to get to know each other and increase the completion of the task." Orochimaru waved his hand.
Toneri took the lead and left the tent. Before walking out, he said to Orochimaru: "Teacher Orochimaru, whatever we can think of, the other party can definitely think of it. I suggest strengthening the defense of the supply line and strengthening the security of the border line."
But Orochimaru waved his hand again impatiently, "I know."
The three of them left.
Come to a corner of the camp.
Although it is very common to form temporary teams during the execution of tasks, Toneri is usually good at acting alone. This time, he was really not used to having two such powerful helpers at once.
"As usual, let's get to know each other first. I'm good at swordsmanship and medical ninjutsu." This time Toneri no longer emphasized that he was a medical ninjutsu. The two people present were not small figures.
Although there are competitions and conflicts between the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan, for the mild-mannered Hyuga Hizashi and the top-notch Uchiha Fugaku, they will obviously not engage in intrigues during the mission, nor will they make the mission difficult purely for the sake of competition.
raised dramatically.
For them, the best way to compete is undoubtedly to complete the mission beautifully, and to assume more responsibilities and play more roles during the mission.
Uchiha Fugaku and Toneri are old friends, and because of Uchiha Yoshinari's relationship, the two are familiar with each other.
Toneri values Uchiha Fugaku's future identity and the two brothers he will give birth to. Uchiha Fugaku has been paying attention to Toneri's growth and his potential since very early on, and has placed a certain amount of bets on him.
code.
Even when the Sheren Cattery opened, he became one of the first customers.
Facts have proved that Shiren did not disappoint him.
"Uchiha Fugaku is good at fire ninjutsu and genjutsu, and his characteristic is the Sharingan.
I didn’t expect Sheren-kun to be able to carry out the mission with you this time, it’s really reassuring..."
After Uchiha Fugaku finished the introduction, he sighed.
Toneri smiled and had to say that Uchiha Fugaku would really be a bit unworthy if he did not become the leader of the Uchiha clan.
The two of them looked at Hinata Hizashi.
Completely different from the rigid and harsh Hyuga Hizashi, Hyuga Hizashi's character is quite gentle, and he has no cynical emotions at all like being forced to become a member of the branch family. He accepted this fact calmly, and he will be full of enthusiasm in the future.
Compared with the son of hatred, his character is much better.
"My name is Hinata Hizashi. My elder brother is Hinata Hizashi. Byakugan is good at reconnaissance and the soft fist of the Hyuga clan. I am also honored to be able to perform missions with Toneri-senpai who has the name of 'Konoha Blue Cat'.
I often heard rumors about you when I was in ninja school."
In terms of age, Hinata Hizashi is older than Tonerito, but at this time, Tonerito is basically fully developed, and the age difference between Hizashi and Hizashi is not noticeable.
Moreover, it is normal for a freshman to be called a senior.
"You two..." Toneri stretched out his finger and tapped it, expressing his speechlessness.
Uchiha Fugaku and Hinata Hizashi looked at each other and smiled. There was no sign of competition between the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan.
Immediately afterwards, Toneri's expression became serious, "This mission is not easy, I hope we can complete it smoothly! Although we have a good relationship, I hope everyone still obeys the command in all actions!"
Hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku and Hinata Hizashi's expressions also became a little serious.
"Yes! Captain Toneri!"
...
night.
Three figures quietly left Konoha's camp and entered the Kingdom of Rain.
At this time, the Kingdom of Rain has undergone earth-shaking changes from when it came before.
In the Second Ninja World War, the arrogant demigod Sansho Hanzo challenged the three hidden villages of Konoha, Sunagakure and Iwagakure with one against three, but was defeated and formed an alliance with Konoha.
After a period of recuperation, some national strength was barely restored.
But this time, Sunagakure Village and Konoha fought in the Land of Rain, but Hanzo chose to lead the Rain Hidden Village and watch from the sidelines.
Without the protection of Amegakure Village and Hanzo, most of the territory in the north of Amegakure became a place fought over by the two armies of Sunagakure Village and Konoha.
Except for some special places, most of the territory of the Kingdom of Rain has become scorched earth.
After the large-scale battles ended, small-scale frictions began, and from time to time, you would encounter enemy people on the land of Rain Country.
However, with the strength of Toneri and the three of them, and the supercilious look of Hinata Hizashi, if they didn't want to encounter them, they basically wouldn't encounter them.
It's easy to say inside the Kingdom of Rain, but the border between the Kingdom of Rain and the Kingdom of Wind will be the first hurdle that Toneri and the three of them need to face.
If we can get through it quietly, it will definitely be beneficial to future operations, but if we alert others here, the subsequent tasks may not be so easy to handle.
Along the way, I watched the residents of the Rain Country living in dire straits.
Even if they were not from their own country, the three people who witnessed all this were not in a good mood.
"War is a disaster no matter who it is, but the people who suffer the most are the people of these small countries." Hinata Hizashi said with emotion.
"If you don't want the residents of the Fire Country to be reduced to this level, then don't let Konoha become the loser. I can't imagine what kind of compensation they will face if they fail, and what will become of the Fire Country and Konoha.
." Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but sigh, but compared to Hyuuga Hisa, his attitude was much colder.
The more he experiences, the more he sees.
Even the Uchiha clan does not have the ability to pacify the entire ninja world. All they can take care of is this one-third of an acre.
In fact, Konoha once had such strength.
When Konoha was first established, when Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara were still there, Uchiha Madara proposed to use absolute force to unify the entire ninja world to quell the ongoing wars.
Unfortunately, Senju Hashirama opposed it.
Perhaps, at that time, Senju Hashirama agreed to Uchiha Madara's proposal, and the long-term pain was not as good as the short-term pain, and he unified the entire ninja world in one fell swoop, and there would not be so many problems now and in the future.
"This is war..."
Sheren just sighed like this.
If we really want to talk about Duo Zi's views on the war, he has definitely experienced much more than them and has much more feelings.
"Get ready, the next step is the defense line of Sunagakure Village. If you can avoid attracting their attention, try not to do it, but if it really affects you, then just do it! Leave no trace!"
"yes!"
After that, the three of them set off quickly.
It turned into an afterimage and disappeared in place, leaping into the forest.
