Chapter 92 War Symphony in the Land of Rain

Hatake Sakumo directly refused Jiraiya's request to see Uchiha Tokimitsu.

From Uchiha Tokumitsu's attitude when he first visited the station, he knew that this young ally did not have much favorable impression of the Hokage disciples, so he directly refused on his behalf, sparing the overly idealistic Jiraiya from saying something negative.

The words that should be said annoyed Uchiha Tokimitsu, and caused unnecessary trouble.

Regarding the contradictions and conflicts between the command of the mobile unit and the top management of the dispatched army, for several days, the village did not respond, as if it was unaware of the conflict.

This made Hatake Sakumo feel relieved and a little sad at the same time.

He breathed a sigh of relief because he didn't have to fight internal strife during the war.

What's sad is that the situation has gotten to this point, and the top management of the village, especially the Hokage, still want to cover up the situation to whitewash the situation, but have not thought about how to solve or reconcile the conflicts and problems that actually exist.

"Nara Shojo died in vain."

Hatake Sakumo was carefully reading the latest Hokage's edict while talking to Uchiha Tokumitsu.

"If you don't work as a good jounin, you just become Danzo's dog, so what if you don't die in vain." Uchiha Tokumitsu said lazily, "Besides, there are only a few jounin in the Nara family, if it weren't for Inokacho

The alliance of the three clans has been close to the Hokage for a long time, so how can they monopolize the position of Jonin squad leader based on their strength."

"Well...the Nara family's strategy is pretty good."

Hatake Sakumo defended himself slightly.

"The wise Nara jounin used the escape ninjutsu to plot against a three-magatama Uchiha..." Uchiha Tokumitsu repeated the old tune to show his disdain, "Maybe it is the position of the hereditary jounin class that makes the Nara family a little bit proud.

I forgot who is the master of Yin Escape."

"Forget it, forget it..."

Hatake Sakumo smiled bitterly and stopped talking about the Nara clan, "What do you think of the Hokage-sama's edict?"

"I see it with my eyes." Uchiha Tokimitsu muttered, taking the edict handed over by Hatake Sakumo and reading it.

As expected, the edict made no mention of the conflicts between the mobile troops and the dispatched troops. It was all about the specific requirements for the next stage of combat tasks.

"Our Hokage-sama is indeed a master of harmony."

Uchiha Tokumitsu said with a bit of teasing.

Hatake Sakumo shook his head helplessly.

"According to the information in this article, Sunagakure has already started a full-scale war with the rain ninja, and they are still evenly matched..." Uchiha Tokko said in surprise, "I can only say that he is worthy of the so-called 'demigod' Sansho Hanzo, and he is worthy of being unafraid."

Damn Rain Ninja, his toughness is really good."

"The lethality of Hanzo's psychic beast Sanshouyu and Ibushi in large-scale wars is indeed extraordinary." Hatake Sakumo summarized the edict's performance of the rain ninja in the war.

The implication is that Rainyin has nothing to worry about and relies entirely on Hanzo's support.

"As long as Hanzo is not dead, the rain ninja will not die." Uchiha Tokumitsu expressed his point of view, "With a strong man like Sansho Hanzo around, even if the rain ninja is defeated for a while, as long as Hanzo still has the will to fight hard,

The rain ninja will not perish."

"Sansho Hanzo and the psychic beast Ibushi..." Hatake Sakumo also sighed a little, "What a terrifying combination."

Hanzo's own powerful strength and super water escape ninjutsu second only to the Second Hokage, coupled with the poison of the psychic beast Ibushi, combined with the special geographical environment of the Land of Rain, Hanzo, the Sanshouyu fighting in the local area, is simply like the rain.

The chosen son of the country is born to be invincible.

Its rise is booming, and its demise is sudden.

This is a true portrayal of Yu Ren’s situation.

As a small national ninja village, the rise of rain ninja is entirely due to the strength and personal charm of Sanshouyu Hanzo.

But the five major countries and the five major ninja villages never thought of accommodating a newly rising small country as an equal partner.

Hanzo, who led the rise of the Rain Ninjas, originally hoped to get a share of the pie from the big countries, but the big countries used war to tell him that they would rather smash the pot than let the hungry Rain Country have a chance to lick it.

Although the ninja world is large, for the daimyo and the great ninja village who are accustomed to feasting and predatory, the benefits are never enough.

"Rise in blood and tears, decline in difficulties..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu also sighed, "Even Iwagakure, who is confronting Kumogakure, is unwilling to sit back and watch, and once again sent ninja troops to gather at the northern border of the Land of Rain."

"By the way, will Kumogakure suddenly attack Taki-nin?" Hatake Sakumo suddenly thought of an unrelated question.

"Probably not..." Tokimitsu Uchiha thought for a while, "Taki-nin also has a tailed beast. If he gets angry, he might ignore the rules and go directly to Kumogakure's lair, Kumoraikyo, to release the tailed beast."

"That's right..." Hatake Sakumo ignored this question that came up out of nowhere, "Concerning the requirements of Hokage-sama's edict, Tokumitsu-kun, what are you going to do?"

"Let's see." Uchiha Tokumitsu held the edict and said with some playfulness: "Let us enter the southern border of the Kingdom of Rain together with the Western Border Defense Force, and cooperate with Sunagakure's attack on the Rain Ninjas from the side... No

Those who knew it thought that this edict was signed by Master Fengying..."

Regarding this, Hatake Sakumo was also a little speechless.

"Besides, I just killed the son and daughter-in-law of Elder Chiyo, the senior leader of Sunagakure, and now they ask me to support them..." There was a lot of dissatisfaction in Uchiha Tokumitsu's tone, "...I'm afraid it's not what Hokage-sama thinks.

My whole body is made of iron, so Sunagakure's poison can't do anything to me, right?"

"How about I lead the army, and you, Tokuguang-kun, take charge of the rear. In this way, I can also hand over the rear to you."

"No, no, no." Uchiha Tokumitsu firmly shook his head and refused, "The war movement in the Land of Rain has already begun, how can the Uchiha clan be absent?"

"Then why don't we divide our forces into separate operations?"

"It's just that in this way, it will be difficult to resist Hanzo's attack." Uchiha Tokumitsu still felt that something was wrong.

"Hanzo..." Hatake Sakumo also frowned, feeling a little troubled, "He is still fighting Sunagakure, he shouldn't be able to get out so soon, and he is fighting Konoha, right?"

"There is nothing wrong with being careful. After all, our subordinates are all our own clansmen or relatives and friends, so we cannot afford to slack off." Uchiha Tokumitsu flicked the edict, "And... for some reason, I always feel that the dispatched troops cannot stop Hanzo's offensive."

"No, after all, it's five thousand ninjas, not five thousand pigs..." Hatake Sakumo felt that Uchiha Tokumitsu's idea was a bit pessimistic, "Danzo's strength is still very good, and the three apprentices of Lord Hokage are

Their strength is very good. With them here, even if there are some mistakes in the command of the ninja army, it will not lead to a big defeat."

"Let's just look at the plan of the 'Ninja Darkness'. Our mission is just to provide support anyway." Uchiha Tokumitsu thought for a while and felt it was better to be cautious. "After all, Danzo is also famous for being narrow-minded. Let's take care of it."

Just do it yourself.”

After some discussion, the two finalized the strategic layout of leading their troops into the southern region of the Land of Rain to counter Sunagakure's threat to the Rain Ninjas.

The core of the battle is naturally the most elite mobile troops, followed by the more numerous ninja troops under the Western Border Defense Force, acting as the main force on the surface to attract the opponent's attention, while Uchiha Tokko's private army, the Red Guards, is

The border areas are on standby as a backup force in case of unexpected events.

After sending a letter to discuss the details of the operation again with the commanders of the Western Border Defense Force, Mimura Hamaki and Kime Koudao, after everything was finalized, Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hatake Sakumo once again led their troops into the Land of Rain.

…

The western border of the Land of Rain.

The front line of the confrontation between Rain Ninja and Sunagakure.

Even though it is close to the dry area of ​​the Kingdom of Wind, drizzle is still falling from the sky of the Kingdom of Rain at this time.

For Sand Hidden in the desert, rainwater is as precious as gold, but for the people of the Land of Rain, all this is a symbol of the blood and tears of this tragic country.

Hanzo leaned on his scythe and looked up at the sky, feeling extremely agitated at this time.

Sunagakure's tenacity and tyranny far exceeded his expectations. Whether it was active attack or passive defense, the rain ninja whose ninja quality was far inferior to that of the powerful ninjas would suffer the greater losses.

After successive battles, the rain ninja who came out in full force had suffered nearly a thousand casualties, and what was even more fatal was that their supplies were gradually running out.

"Lord Hanzo..."

A rain ninja knelt on one knee beside Sanshouyu Hanzo.

"Have you checked it out?"

"We've found out..." The rain ninja lowered his head, not daring to look directly at the god in his mind, "It's Konoha...it's the Konoha ninja army in the east that sent a team to attack the supply line..."

"Konoha..." Sansho Hanzo felt extremely exhausted physically and mentally.

It would have been difficult to withstand the attacks of the major powers in turn, but if they really attacked together, the weak Yu Ninja Village would not be able to withstand it at all.

Fortunately, the conflicts between the big powers were greater than the conflict with the Rain Country, and there was almost no trust basis for direct cooperation, so the Rain Ninjas were able to support it with all their strength.

The reason why Hanzo led his troops to attack Sunagakure was because he hoped to quickly repel Sunagakure's invasion in order to deter Konoha and Iwagakure who were ready to move.

But since the all-out war was launched, not even Sunagakure could compete with just the rain ninja.

The strength of the five major ninja villages of the five major countries is not only the tyranny of individual high-level combat forces, but more importantly, the solid systematic combat echelon. In this regard, the rain ninja is at an overall disadvantage.

Moreover, facing Elder Chiyo, a senior member of Sunagakure who is also good at using poison, the effect of Sanshouyu Hanzo's psychic beast Ibushi poison is relatively limited, which is equivalent to nullifying nearly half of Hanzo's lethality on the battlefield.

The already struggling situation, coupled with Konoha's harassment from the rear, made the situation increasingly dangerous, making Sansho Hanzo feel almost overwhelmed.

"Do you have any information about the Konoha ninja army that carried out the raid?"

Sanshouyu Hanzo's tone was emotionless and he asked coldly.

"After reconnaissance and identification, it was determined to be a unit directly under Shimura Danzo, the senior leader of Konoha..." The rain ninja did not dare to raise his head, "...that is, the root."

"Haha... He is truly worthy of being the legendary 'Darkness of Shinobi'. He is just like a rat in the gutter, best at taking advantage of chaos and robbing people."
