Therefore,
This news will make his companion happy, so why shouldn't he be happy too?!
"This message must be sent back!"
"Tsunade and Orochimaru will be so happy when they find out!"
"Psychic art!"
......
The war between the Land of Rain and the Land of Fire has come to a complete end.
In the ninja world, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru also made a name for themselves in the Land of Rain as the Legendary Sannin of Konoha.
These are the three individuals who have gained the approval of the powerful Hanzo, and this information has been received by various ninja villages throughout the ninja world.
The Konoha ninjas located on the border of the Fire Rain were naturally very happy, because their war was over.
Then, another piece of news struck the ears of the people of Konoha: the Land of Grass had been conquered by the Land of Earth.
The implication is that Kusagakure has been breached by Iwagakure ninjas, and the Iwagakure ninjas are currently resting and preparing for their next attack.
It is estimated that after about six months, once all the necessary supplies are ready, a formal attack will be launched again on the border of the Land of Fire.
—As Shirahoshi said, the root of war lies in the loss of morale.
As long as there is an unequal distribution of benefits and differences in culture and heritage, the struggle between nations will never cease.
Even if
Even if the entire country is almost conquered by others, there will still be resistance forces that strive to revitalize and restore their country.
Until culture and heritage are completely integrated.
At this time, the personnel at the Metasequoia Forest camp had basically evacuated to the Insect Forest Gorge camp.
Many commanders were finally able to relax at this moment, and a large number of ninjas were also able to return to their villages and homes to rest.
In addition, in the Fire and Wind Battlefield.
Because the Sand Village ninjas discovered that the number of people on the border of the Land of Fire had decreased, the Third Kazekage decided to send an infiltration force to break through the border troops led by Sakumo Hatake.
Given the shortage of personnel, Hatake Sakumo naturally set up numerous cordons and dispatched various sensory ninjas to carry out security work.
During a patrol, they encountered a puppet couple, both elite Jonin, leading over fifty elite Sunagakure ninja.
Sakumo Hatake, acting as a support and pursuit force, directly cooperated with the Konoha ninja, leaving the couple behind.
It is said that the couple were elite puppeteers of Sunagakure, holding the titles of Jonin and Second-Level Commander, and were the son and daughter-in-law of Elder Chiyo of Sunagakure.
At this point, the morale of Sunagakure Village on the battlefield of Fire and Wind was severely damaged, and they dared not launch another attack for a time.
Sakumo Hatake was also able to spare some time to escort the bodies of two important Jonin from Sunagakure back to the village, report to the Third Hokage, and also take the opportunity to see Kakashi, who was born the month before last.
Meanwhile, at the Insect Forest Gorge camp, in the dormitory area of the Uchiha support force.
Mikoto Uchiha also packed her bags to go home. After this battle, the subsequent wars will become guerrilla warfare between small teams, with each team doing its best to prevent the Iwagakure forces from resupplying and replenishing their personnel.
However, these tasks will be handled by other ninja teams that the village has already arranged: without supplies, the Iwagakure ninjas will run out of food, and then the number of personnel on the battlefield will continue to decrease.
Troops will not be replenished until all supplies have been distributed to the village.
The haughty, black-haired girl, trying to alleviate the darkness and cruelty she had witnessed on the battlefield, revealed a gentle and kind smile:
"Fengyi, let's go back."
Beside her, the black-haired girl who once cared about power now appeared somewhat aloof and indifferent.
"Mikoto."
"The team is down to just the two of us."
"In less than a year, it's just the two of us left."
"hehe--"
Seeing Fengyi's somewhat distraught state, Mikoto maintained her smile, hugged the older Fengyi, and patted her back.
"It's okay, it's okay."
"Go back and get some rest. Everything will be alright."
"Mikoto... Waaah—" The cool and aloof girl couldn't hold back anymore. She leaned her head on Mikoto's shoulder, and tears streamed down her face, soaking Mikoto's clothes.
At this moment, only the two girls remained in the dormitory area behind them. Besides Uchiha Keima, there was another surviving Uchiha Chunin who had lost half a leg in the hospital.
This is the job of the support troops. No matter how dangerous it is, once they receive a mission from their superiors and arrive at the location, they must carry it out.
In this declaration of war by the Land of Rain, and in the battles with the Hidden Stone Ninja before and after, Konoha lost more than a thousand ninjas.
wow-
The dormitory door curtain was pulled open by someone outside, revealing a blonde girl whose tears had long since dried up.
"Mikoto."
"And Miss Fengyi."
"Nonou?!" Mikoto turned around when she heard the familiar voice. "You're still alive! That's wonderful!"
Feng Yi raised her head, wiped away her tears, and resumed her cool and aloof demeanor: only in this way could she maintain the spirit to face life with strength despite losing her companions.
Upon hearing Mikoto's response, Yakushi Nonou remained unmoved. Instead, in a tone that tried her best to maintain her composure and compose herself, she delivered a piece of information:
"teacher."
"Died in battle."
hum-
The moment Nono's words reached the ears of the girl with long, straight black hair, her mind went blank.
Then, countless impossibilities began to surface in my mind.
——Crack!
Once she came to her senses, Mikoto stepped forward and excitedly grabbed Nono's shoulder. The force made Nono feel a little pain, but she didn't cry out. She just felt that this would make Mikoto feel better, so she didn't mind.
"You lied to me, you lied to me, didn't you?"
"Which teacher is it? Orochimaru? Tsunade? Or...?"
Mikoto knew that Orochimaru and Tsunade were not dead, but in her memory, there were only three people that Nono could call her "teacher".
Nonou turned her face away and looked to the side:
"You know who I'm talking about."
"That's what it is."
boom!
Mikoto's brain and pupils jolted again, and her body involuntarily took several steps back until she bumped into something soft. Mikoto couldn't help but look up and saw that it was Sister Fengyi.
At this moment, the cool, black-haired girl understood Mikoto's feelings and gently hugged her, saying, "Cry as much as you want to cry."
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--"
This time, it was Mikoto's turn to lie in Fengyi's arms and cry wildly, her eyes filled with hatred.
Unbeknownst to her, her Sharingan quietly opened. The girl, who had been stuck at the two-tomoe stage, began to operate at a rapid pace, and her eye power advanced to an even stronger stage once again.
—Three tomoe, done!
Meanwhile, Shirahoshi returned to the metasequoia forest camp and found it completely empty: "..."
Damn! How did you guys finish so quickly?! You finished the battlefield cleanup way too fast! How am I supposed to get back?!
After thinking for a moment, Shirahoshi decided to go back!
#
Several more days passed, and Jiraiya taught Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan some life skills.
The departure of the other 'Jiraiya' left the three children somewhat disappointed, but since he was living alone in this chaotic ninja world, the three said they would remember him: they would leave him a frog tag as a token of their gratitude for this time.
Seeing this, Jiraiya didn't have much to say, since although he didn't know what the person's purpose was, he had indeed helped the three of them.
So, next to the three signs, a sign with a frog was placed.
But the name on it reads 'surgeon'.
That day, Jiraiya was still packing his things, looking at the environment inside the house, and sighing inwardly.
boom--
As soon as the door opened, Jiraiya turned around and saw Yahiko rushing back.
"Oh no, teacher! Konan, Konan, and Nagato have encountered enemies!"
"What?! Take me there right now!!!"
Meanwhile, the young ninjas of Iwagakure learned of the defeat of the Land of Rain and were unwilling to retreat.
Subsequently, the logistics troops of Iwagakure were also unable to replenish their supplies in a timely manner.
Faced with a shortage of supplies and near starvation, they turned their attention to the common people of the Rain Country.
of course.
He dared not provoke the town; if he was physically weak or in poor mental condition, the town's guards could easily make him suffer.
Moreover, these guards are troops hired by nobles, and attacking a safe town would violate the ninja's war regulations, and the village would not let him off the hook.
Today, he felt very lucky to find not only a suitable rest house but also three children in an area where there was no town nearby.
—If three children can survive, there must be food.
Moreover, the young man's gaze fell upon Xiao Nan.
"Konan, run, run!" Nagato grabbed the young Chunin's hand, but the boy shoved Nagato away dismissively: even if he was hungry, this brat was no match for him.
"So fair-skinned. I never imagined such a small country would have orphans with such beautiful skin." The young chunin licked his bloodied lips, his eyes filled with madness: "It would look so good if I cut it open!!"
Nagato saw the young Chunin walking towards the helpless Konan, and the scene of his parents covering his escape from the battlefield flashed through his mind again.
"Ah, ah..."
