"You mean, Lord Miyue had expected it a long time ago?"
"Yes, if you think about it carefully, as Lord Mitsuki, there is absolutely no need to argue with Sarutobi Aoki. The reason why he did that..."
At this point, the man blinked at his companion and stopped. And his companion was also very smart. He figured everything out almost as soon as he finished speaking.
Although Uchiha Mitsuki is the commander of the northern camp, that is only on the surface.
In fact, the real power is firmly in the hands of the dove faction under the Third Hokage. It is nothing more than a dream for the young man to order the troops to move south based on his identity.
However, he just did it.
"So the attack on Sarutobi Aoki was to pave the way for retreat? But how did he know about Iwagakure's actions?"
The more this man thought about it, the more he felt that Uchiha Mitsuki was very deep-minded and terrifying. However, he was still the elder of the village, so he could let it go.
"Isshin, although we have a lot of power now, in fact it is all fake. As long as the war is over, the village will definitely take back the power in our hands, and we as civilian ninjas will be even more miserable. We will end up with nothing. How about,
Let’s take refuge with Lord Mitsuki... He is so young, if he becomes Hokage in the future, wouldn’t we have to take off?”
"Taoyue, you are right. Of course, it is more important to provide help in times of need than to add icing on the cake."
The man and his companion looked at each other and smiled, making a decision in their hearts.
There are quite a few people who have the same thoughts as them tonight, but they are not as decisive as them. After all, the Third Hokage is now in his prime. It is not very reliable no matter how he thinks about giving up such a large sea to seek refuge in a newly emerged stream.
…
The night wind was blowing loudly.
The anxiety in the hearts of the Konoha ninjas has not dissipated for a long time.
They didn't repair for long and started on their way again.
With most of the ninjas injured, once Iwagakure pursues them, they will inevitably fall into a hard fight.
Considering this, Uchiha Mitsuki decided to give up repairs and continue on his way.
The destination of their retreat is the Northern Forest of the Country of Rain. As Konoha's important base stationed in the Country of Rain, it should not be a problem to accommodate them.
Just as everyone was walking quickly, Hinata Haimu's expression suddenly changed drastically. He hurriedly shouted to Uchiha Mitsuki: "Mitsuki-sama, Iwagakure is chasing me!"
What are you really afraid of? What's coming!
Hearing Hinata Haimu's panicked voice, Uchiha Mitsuki's face darkened. Although he had considered the current situation, there were many variables on the battlefield. He was not 100% sure whether his thoughts were right or not.
It can work.
But I still have to give it a try. After all, we can't let these injured ninjas fight with their injuries.
"Do you know Huang Tu? Help me see if he is in the chasing team."
"Yes, Lord Miyue!"
Hyuga Haiki immediately did as he was told. He opened his Byakugan's insight to the maximum, and soon discovered Loess who was missing an ear among the chasing Iwagakure team.
"I saw it, he is there! Master Jian Yue! Loess is inside."
Got it!
Hearing this, Uchiha Mitsuki breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was windy and cloudless tonight and could not use the Thunder Release Kirin, isn't the most powerful thing in the Naruto world the Mouth Release?
What's more, the opponent is still a defeated general.
With this thought, the chaotic thoughts in Uchiha Mizuki's heart were settled.
Now, what he wants to do is to let the ninja world see the power of the Chinese ancestor's seven-inch tongue.
"Minato come with me, the others will continue on their way."
Uchiha Mitsuki channeled a small ninja crow and placed it in Minato's arms. Even if he prepared for the worst, he could use his Crow Technique and Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique to escape.
"Lord Mian Yue, this is not possible! How can you end the marriage alone?" Gu Jie felt that it was inappropriate, and it should be adults like them who wanted to go: "Why not, just let me go, after all, I am still with Er.
Lord Daime Hokage has learned a few water escape techniques. And..."
Thinking of the goals everyone had set together during the Spring Festival this year, Kosuke was even more reluctant to let Uchiha Mitsuki take risks himself.
"See the moon, just let me go! Otherwise, you can let me follow."
A soldier dies for his bosom friend, Matt Dai interrupted Gu Jie's words loudly and said with a solemn expression.
Seeing that other people were also trying to persuade him, Uchiha Mitsuki was moved and quickly refused: "Uncle Gusuke, Brother Dai, everyone, don't you understand me? How can I, a timid person, take risks?
What about the matter? If I dare to break it off, I must be sure of escaping unscathed."
Seeing that the young man was determined and confident, everyone had no choice but to give up and stop trying to persuade him.
Among the guards, the oldest Kosuke was still worried and couldn't help but warn Minato.
"Minato, if you see that the situation is not good, quickly retreat with Mitsuki-sama, do you understand?"
Having said that, Kosuke still has great trust in Minato's combat capabilities. He is just venting his worries.
"I will, Kosuke-senpai." Minato nodded vigorously.
"let's go!"
Time was running out, Uchiha Mitsuki didn't want to waste any more time, so he jumped directly and headed in the opposite direction to the large army. Minato followed immediately.
Seeing the two disappearing figures, everyone silently sent their blessings and continued to retreat quickly.
…
"Master Huang Tu, there are two people outside the woods in front."
The sentient ninja on Iwagakure's side frowned and reported to Huang Tuhui.
He couldn't help but be a little surprised by the situation he perceived at the moment. How could Konoha only leave two people behind? Where were the others?
The sentient ninja was confused.
"Two people?!"
Thinking that the commander of the enemy formation was the young man who had suffered a big loss for himself a few years ago, Huang Tu did not dare to be careless.
"Stop, there may be an ambush in the woods ahead."
Loess's order quickly spread among the Iwagakure army.
Within a moment, Iwa Ninja stopped.
At the same time, looking at the black army of Iwa ninja rushing toward him and Minato not far away, surrounded by big-hearted players like Uchiha Mitsuki, he couldn't help but feel a little frightened at this moment.
Wouldn't they be like their younger brother Uchiha Tu who just came here without any thought, right?
Fortunately, Iwagakure stopped two hundred meters away from them.
"She still has some brains..." Uchiha Mitsuki patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
"What?"
Minato was too nervous to hear clearly what Uchiha Mitsuki was saying.
"It's nothing..." Seeing Minato's nervous look, Uchiha Mitsuki was worried that he would show his weakness, and quickly comforted him: "Minato, you must be nervous, right? Think back to when you kissed Kushina last year, then
But it’s much more exciting than this, at least you’re not blushing now.”
God's face didn't turn red.
Minato's desire to complain instantly overcame his fear of the Iwa ninja.
