At the border of River Country, Jiraiya called all the strong men from Konoha who participated in the war this time and held a war meeting.
What Sunagakure Village is doing right now is really confusing. Even Habara behind them understood their thoughts immediately. How could Jiraiya not see it?
It's just that this group of Sunagakure wants to use this method to block Konoha's attack. Isn't it a bit too big and unnecessary?
If it was the old Konoha, then they might really stop. After all, the Third Hokage's thinking was like that, and the Konoha in his hands was the beginning of its transition from prosperity to decline.
But the Konoha of today is not the Konoha of the past when its talents were withering and failing to survive. The Konoha of today is full of blood and strength.
It is absolutely impossible and absolutely not acceptable for them to easily let go of the enemies who have attacked them, let alone believe in such a so-called alliance that goes back on its word!
Even Jiraiya has always maintained a certain level of peaceful thinking, but after he saw the Country of Grass and the Country of Tang, and after the gentle and gentle thoughts of Habara in the past three years, he changed.
He now also subconsciously believes that only by truly integrating the entire ninja world can there be hope for peace in the ninja world!
Therefore, he really does not object to attacking Sand Hidden Village now, but he also hopes to solve everything more happily and quickly.
After all, this way, both sides can bleed less, which is a good thing for everyone.
"Everyone, I called you here this time just to discuss the battle plan."
Jiraiya looked at the map and said quickly without raising his head.
"Now everyone has seen the situation in Sand Hidden Village. They have completely retreated into the Kingdom of Wind and cannot come out, and they have given us all the Kingdom of Rivers.
Although this allowed them to achieve part of their strategic goals without bloodshed, it also did not have the baptism of war, and we also need more people to maintain local stability.
And after entering the Kingdom of Wind, this is an absolute home field advantage for Sunagakure Village.
Even if their ninja strength is not that great, they can still cause some trouble to us.
So I hope you can think of a way so that we can break through Sunagakure Village's defense line more quickly and achieve a large-scale strategic victory.
And, an annihilation operation on a necessary scale.”
An annihilation operation must target the opponent's vitality, so as to achieve the greatest degree of annihilation, destroy the opponent's vitality, and give the opponent a double physical and psychological blow.
Such a battle is bound to be bloody and cruel, but it is often the most effective in forcing the opponent to surrender.
Although Jiraiya didn't like this kind of combat mode, after entering a state of war, he also knew what to do best.
Once they quickly break through and form the necessary strategic annihilation, they can reduce more battles and capture what they want more easily.
There is never a war without bloodshed. It is better to shed the blood of others than to shed the blood of one's own!
"Hokage-sama, I have an idea."
As soon as Jiraiya finished speaking, Hatake Sakumo spoke, and his opening made all the Konoha Jonin present look at him.
Now he was completely alive, and his appearance shocked even the jounin of Konoha who didn't understand the situation.
Although most of these jounin are newly promoted, and only a few are close to the same generation as Hatake Sakumo, they all know this legend of Konoha without exception.
Many people even grew up listening to the legend of Konoha White Fang!
Therefore, when he appeared in front of the world again, and he was still so young, one can imagine how shocked these Konoha Jonin were in their hearts.
He revealed what he had already prepared - Konoha has a resurrection ninjutsu, but it requires a certain price and is somewhat troublesome to use.
However, the trouble can be solved. There will be a certain quota every year, so all Konoha ninjas have the opportunity to use this technique to resurrect the person they most want to resurrect.
Even if they are scheduled to resurrect themselves!
However, if you want to resurrect others, you must have enough merit. Only if you get huge and undisputed merit.
Then Konoha will bring back the people these people desire most in their hearts on the day of the Spring Festival.
Of course, there is good news as well as bad news, that is, the age of the resurrected people may be somewhat different.
It is very likely that the person who is resurrected is your elder, but due to age, he may be younger than you.
However, this bad news is not bad news at all for many people. Everyone is only concerned about the first point!
And this news spread rapidly throughout the entire Konoha army, and many ninjas couldn't help but quietly ran to see Hatake Sakumo.
When they saw that the legend of Konoha communicated with Kakashi frequently and even taught Kakashi a lesson, they were now completely sure of all this.
It's just that they felt that their methods were very secretive, but all this fell into the eyes of Hatake Sakumo. It didn't feel so good to be looked at as a monkey, but he didn't care.
He had anticipated such a situation, so he remained calm.
And because of his resurrection and the transmission of those messages, the entire Konoha army was as if they were vibrating, and the high fighting atmosphere broke through the sky.
Why should he care in such a situation, so now he doesn't have much emotional fluctuation when he speaks.
Moreover, he is an expert in dealing with Sunagakure. He killed Sunagakure until he was bleeding like a river, and he is also the best at what he says now.
"I have been to Sand Hidden Village many times back then. Although I don't know if it has changed now, but if we look at it based on our strength, I think we have a chance."
"Sakumo, if you have any ideas, just tell me."
Jiraiya raised his head and said with a smile, he had great trust in Hatake Sakumo, his big brother.
"We can conduct a raid from three directions."
Hatake Sakumo said directly, and his words made everyone present look strange, but he didn't care and explained directly.
"It is true that we do not have an advantage in terms of military strength, and Master Hahara did not come to the battlefield in person this time.
However, Lord Habara introduced His Excellency Governor Shisui. Although I have not witnessed his fighting posture, I have absolute trust in him.
Lord Habara has said that Shisui-dono's combat prowess will not be worse than his. In this case, this plan is very sure of success.
My predetermined plan is for me to lead two thousand people from the southeast of River Country and surround Sunagakure behind.
Lord Shisui also led 2,000 people to attack from the northeast, while Lord Hokage led 3,000 people to attack from the front.
There is no need to attack by force, you just need to hold them back so that they can quickly complete the encirclement.
Although this plan is simple, we have an absolute advantage in strength, and this time we have the assistance of the Hyuga clan, I think we can complete the task."
Hatake Sakumo's plan is actually, as he said, a very simple plan.
But simplicity does not mean that it is not easy to use. On the contrary, when they have an absolute advantage, simple plans are often the most practical plans.
Although the three-way encirclement will disperse Konoha's combat power, especially when Konoha still leaves a thousand people in the River Country to prevent Sunagakure Village from causing damage.
But this time, the people Konoha brought were all carefully selected, and there was absolutely no problem in terms of strength, not to mention that they also brought many elite ninjas.
This kind of configuration is no longer an ordinary luxury. It must be because of Habara and Tsunade Konoha that Jiraiya dared to bring out so many strong men.
"Okay, just follow your plan."
Jiraiya thought for a moment, and finally nodded.
"Sakumo, Shisui, I now officially appoint you as two-line commanders, and you have the right to choose your own personnel.
But they only have five hours to prepare, and the frontal troops will launch the attack in four hours, so hurry up."
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
Shisui and Sakumo looked at each other, then they quickly retreated and began to make their own preparations.
Jiraiya looked at the map again, and this time his gaze became firmer, and he also made a decision.
That is this time's frontal attack, he will attack personally!
...
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
When the time came to the scheduled attack point, Konoha's front troops, led by Jiraiya, took the lead in launching a surprise attack.
When countless ninjutsu fell from the sky on the Sunagakure Village's position, the fire suddenly dyed the sky red, and the screams on the Sunagakure Village's position were even more continuous.
"Damn it, Konoha actually attacked!"
In the command tent, Chiyo's expression was extremely ugly, although she expected that Konoha would not let them go like this, even if they had given up the interests of the River Country.
But she still has a bit of luck, hoping that Konoha won't really kill them all!
But now she knew that Konoha really had no intention of letting any of them go.
Chiyo can only force herself to calm down now, because anxiety and anger are of no use at this time. Only calmness can allow them to find ways to deal with the threat of Konoha.
"Immediately send a message to Kumogakure and Iwagakure to tell them that Konoha has entered the territory of the Kingdom of Wind."
Chiyo took a deep breath and spoke quickly with her mind active.
"Let them focus on Konoha's actions towards the Country of Grass and the Country of Yu, and emphasize the current threat to Konoha. We must make them feel the crisis.
Also, how many troops are in Konoha's frontal attack? Did you see any dangerous guys?"
I have to say that Chiyo is indeed a qualified commander and also a qualified leader.
She knew very well that the current strength of Konoha was really beyond the strength of Sunagakure Village, so her first reaction was to find a way to get Iwagakure and Kumogakure to send troops.
Only if these two villages send troops can they pose a threat to Konoha, which will force Konoha to consider the pressure brought by other aspects.
Only in this way can they have a chance to defend the Kingdom of Wind, and have a chance to force Konoha to sit down and negotiate!
In addition, she also knew very well that although Konoha was very strong now, their frontal attack might not be able to easily break through the defense line.
This is not to say how powerful Sunagakure is, but the desert is their home ground, and Konoha's forced invasion will inevitably lead to greater casualties.
In this case, he had to carefully consider whether Konoha had adopted certain tactics. To react like this in a very short period of time, Chiyo's level would be clear at a glance.
"The people dispatched by Konoha this time are very powerful, including Kakashi and Uchiha Shisui. They all dispatched."
Ebizo sighed and said, Konoha really has too many talents, which Sunagakure Village cannot compare with.
"But thankfully, Uchiha Hahara did not take action. He chose to stay in Konoha, and Tsunade did not come either.
As for this attack, Konoha is still being destroyed by ninjutsu, but judging from the scale of ninjutsu, it does not seem to have reached the level of 8,000 people.
Not to mention eight thousand people, not even five thousand people."
"There are not even five thousand people?"
When Chiyo heard this, her eyes suddenly changed slightly.
"The River Kingdom gave it to Konoha, so they must send people to guard it. It is estimated that they have a thousand combat troops less, so there are about seven thousand people.
The current Ninjutsu coverage does not even cover 5,000 people, so it is very likely that they have divided their forces to surround them!
As expected of Konoha, you are really confident."
Chiyo had already guessed Konoha's movements in just a moment, but after knowing it, in addition to being angry and helpless, she also had some ideas.
In doing this, Konoha does have its own self-confidence. After all, they are too strong. If they succeed in this way, they can definitely achieve the effect of encircling and annihilating themselves.
But this gave Chiyo a chance. If she didn't know, forget it, but now that she knows, it would be inappropriate not to do something.
Although she didn't know who was commanding the Konoha assault force, she was confident that she could fight even if she met Jiraiya.
Perhaps Uchiha Shisui will be very difficult to deal with, but they only need to block this gap and eliminate the effective strength of Konoha's assault force as much as possible.
Then if Konoha cannot form an encirclement, it is definitely their chance, so that they can block Konoha's opportunity, and even force Konoha to stop and give them more breathing time!
"Ebizo, I leave the front line to you to command."
After thinking about these things, Chiyo suddenly stood up and said in a heavy voice.
"If my judgment is correct, Konoha must have sent personnel to surround us, so I decided to lead some personnel to stop Konoha.
Once successful, it will definitely bring a huge blow to Konoha, and it will also allow us to delay longer for Kumogakure and Iwagakure to react."
"Then, what if Konoha didn't do this?"
Ebizo asked with some worry. In fact, he also felt that Konoha might do this, but without the help of intelligence, he was worried that Konoha was playing tricks.
"If not, I will send a flare, and then you will launch a full counterattack, and I will attack Konoha from the flank!"
Chiyo's face turned fierce, and she said in a calm voice.
"War cannot be changed by one person's strength or weakness, and the person who can change everything is not here.
So, we have a chance!"
...
"Set off!"
After Hatake Sakumo integrated his troops, he has been silently waiting for time.
He was very calm and did not allow his troops to participate in any frontal attacks on Konoha. All the chosen people were prepared and they all knew what their mission was.
And many of them were very excited at this time. It was definitely an exciting thing for them to have the opportunity to perform missions with the legendary ninjas of Konoha.
At this time, they all secretly vowed that they must perform well.
They can all see Kakashi's achievements in Konoha, so Kakashi's father being resurrected seems normal to them.
They also know that it is unlikely that they can achieve success with this war, but after all, they have a hope, right?
After waiting and preparing silently for an hour, Hatake Sakumo finally gave the order. At this moment, all of them immediately entered a fighting state.
The next moment, they quickly followed Hatake Sakumo and left their position, turned around and rushed into the Kingdom of Wind.
Their speed was very fast, and there was also wind and sand blowing at this time. This heavy sand just covered up the traces of their movements.
"The fight is already starting from the front, we have to move quickly.
However, we must also consider the physical fitness and chakra of the combatants, and try to reach the combat area within half an hour."
While moving, Hatake Sakumo was thinking silently, and then he turned to look at Kakashi.
"Kakashi, please pay more attention to the personnel in the rear, and inform everyone to be ready for battle at any time."
"I see."
Kakashi nodded, he naturally knew what Hatake Sakumo meant.
Although the Sunagakure Village is in trouble, they have not been completely wiped out. People with excellent combat qualities will naturally consider Konoha's battle plan.
For example, although the ninjutsu coverage on the front line is fierce, it is difficult to say whether someone can judge something and guess the intention of their actions.
In this case, the possibility of them encountering a battle is really not small, and it is very necessary to be ready for battle at any time.
And Kakashi is very excited now. Being able to fight with his father has been his dream since he was young.
But this dream was deprived of him early, and it became a regret in his heart.
But now that his childhood dream has come true, how can he not be excited?
But no matter how excited he was, their current tasks still needed to be completed, and he didn't want this exciting time to turn into a bad memory in the future.
Kakashi soon passed on all the information. In fact, even if he didn't do this, the Konoha ninjas would still be vigilant enough.
The people of the Hyuga clan even used their Byakugan alternately to observe every move around them. After all, they had entered the Kingdom of Wind.
"Alert, there are enemies ahead!"
Just as they were advancing rapidly for about fifteen minutes, suddenly a member of the Hyuga clan saw the hidden Sunagakure army in the distance, and he immediately shouted.
"Everyone, prepare for battle!"
Upon hearing this, Hatake Sakumo immediately gave the order, but he did not let anyone slow down.
Since he had guessed that he might encounter enemies when he rushed forward, he was naturally prepared for a battle.
"Kakashi, you lead the troops to open up the formation, I will meet with them first."
"Father...."
Kakashi was a little worried when he saw this. Now Hatake Sakumo is not the reincarnation of dirt, he is a living person.
This also means that once he suffers a fatal attack, something will definitely go wrong.
"Don't worry, I won't take my life for granted."
Hatake Sakumo seemed to know what Kakashi was thinking. He suddenly turned around and said to Kakashi with a smile.
"I've been willful once and made you suffer from loneliness. I won't do it this time, and I promise I'll never do it again!"
"I...I understand, father."
Kakashi opened his mouth slightly as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just nodded to Hatake Sakumo.
Hatake Sakumo patted Kakashi on the shoulder, and the next moment his speed increased again. He jumped out and rushed directly to the front of the team.
"Do it!"
At this moment, Sunagakure Village also took action, with countless ninjutsu and ninja tools moving crazily towards Konoha, or Hatake Sakumo.
Hatake Sakumo dodged extremely quickly. His movements were not elegant, but he was extremely agile. During his dodge, he evaded all ninjutsu and ninja tools.
Moreover, his dodge did not affect any of his progress. He was almost rushing to the front of the Sunagakure army!
"Where did this madman come from?"
Chiyo frowned. She had been waiting here for a long time, and now that she met her, she was naturally ready to fight.
She was not too excited, because she knew that this time it was bound to be a tough battle, but she didn't expect that the people on the Konoha side seemed to be a little too reckless.
Or perhaps they were overconfident, and a man rushed directly in front of them. Did this guy think he was Uchiha Hahara?
However, the moment she saw the appearance of the man rushing over, she was stunned.
"This is?"
Chiyo looked at everything in front of her in disbelief. She seemed to have forgotten that she was still directing the battle at this moment.
She could never forget this person who kept getting closer, because he looked exactly like the guy who killed her son and daughter-in-law!
"Hatake Sakumo..."
Chiyo murmured in disbelief, but soon her eyes burst into endless anger.
She doesn't care whether this person is Hatake Sakumo or who he is, what she wants now is to kill this guy!
She quickly formed seals with her hands, and with a burst of smoke, a puppet dressed in white was summoned by her.
These ten puppets were made by the puppet master. Each of them has its own weapons, ninja tools and attack methods. This can be said to be Chiyo's best strength.
She once used this technique to capture a city, but she has never used this technique since then. Now she is completely angry and will use all her strength!
Hatake Sakumo was naturally aware of such changes in chakra, but he didn't take it too seriously. The White Fang dagger in his hand was already unsheathed when he rushed into the crowd.
"Buzz!"
With the sound of breaking wind caused by the ninja sword, the neck of Sunagakure who was blocking Hatake Sakumo was instantly wiped off.
But Hatake Sakumo didn't pause at all. He swung his sword and his whole body disappeared directly from the place. The next moment he appeared not far away and swung his sword again.
The swordsmanship of the Hatake clan emphasizes the interactive combination of speed and weirdness. Every time the sword is used, there is no trace, and every time the sword is used, it will inevitably take away a person's life.
Most people cannot react to this extremely fast swordsmanship, and Hatake Sakumo himself is a master of lightning escape.
With the help of Lei Dun, his speed was even more incredible, which also contributed to his great reputation of Konoha White Fang.
Even Chiyo's son and daughter-in-law died before they could survive a single round in his hands!
Hatake Sakumo used his speed to the extreme, and none of the Sand Ninjas present could catch him.
"ah!"
Screams continued to echo in the crowd, although Hatake Sakumo could only kill one enemy at a time.
But this efficiency and this invisible sense of oppression are really difficult for these ninjas in Sunagakure Village to accept.
If it were those ninjas more than twenty years ago, maybe they would know what kind of desperate guy they are facing now.
But what these young people don't know is that in order to weaken Konoha's influence on itself, Sunagakure Village cannot promote people like Hatake Sakumo.
But now they have experienced the despair of their seniors when they faced Hatake Sakumo!
"Don't go too far, you bastard!"
Just when Hatake Sakumo was getting ready to kill, Chiyo's angry shouts reached his ears.
Immediately afterwards, the powerful chakra locked onto him with the terrifying wind escape and attacked him. Along with this strong wind, there were countless kunai and senbon.
This offensive combination completely surrounded Hatake Sakumo, and it seemed that Hatake Sakumo had no way out.
"boom!"
However, when these attacks came down hard, everyone noticed that the place where Hatake Sakumo was originally was empty.
Not far away, the figure with silver hair stood there calmly, looking at everything in front of him with cold eyes.
"Chiyo?"
Hatake Sakumo glanced at the ten floating puppets, and then his eyes seemed to see through the puppets and see the people who controlled them.
"It's me, who are you?"
Chiyo slowly walked out from behind the puppet, she stared at Hatake Sakumo and said almost through gritted teeth.
"Do you know who you look like now? Do you want to die?"
"You actually already know who I am, but why can't you believe it?"
Hatake Sakumo gently shook the ninja sword in his hand, looked at Chiyo calmly and said indifferently.
"Speaking of which, the last time I saw you, you were not as old as you are now. Time does not leave anyone behind, but you are still alive. You are still here after so many years.
By the way, I didn't see your son and daughter-in-law when I was in the Pure Land. Maybe the Pure Land itself is a scam, or maybe we are enemies so we can't meet."
"What are you crazy about? Who are you?"
Chiyo stared at Hatake Sakumo angrily, gritted her teeth and shouted.
But she was almost certain in her heart who the guy in front of her was.
Who else can say such words, who else has such a posture, and who else has such strength.
In his memory, besides guys like Hatake Sakumo, who else could there be?
Moreover, Chiyo's memory is getting clearer and clearer. Looking at the guy in front of her, she is more and more convinced that this guy is Hatake Sakumo!
But what exactly is going on and why does this happen?
Why can a person who was already dead get back up? Most importantly, why is this heinous guy the person who comes back?
"Go to hell!"
This time, Chiyo stopped talking nonsense. She angrily controlled the puppet and launched a desperate attack on Hatake Sakumo.
In an instant, countless Senbons glowing with green light rushed toward Hatake Sakumo.
But Hatake Sakumo watched everything calmly, his body moved slightly and he quickly avoided in a difficult posture.
The overwhelming number of thousands of books fell beside him, but they all failed to hit him by a hair. The next moment, his body returned to its normal posture, and at the same time he swung the short sword quickly.
Several puppets had already rushed to Hatake Sakumo's side, but he remained undaunted. The chirping of weapons kept coming, and sparks flew in the sky.
In terms of sword skills, he really has never been afraid of anyone!
I saw his figure constantly intertwining with the white puppet. Amidst the fierce fighting, pieces of wood kept falling from the puppet to the ground.
Obviously, these puppets can't cause any trouble to him at all.
"It seems that you haven't made any progress in the years since I died."
Hatake Sakumo held a puppet with his sword, and then several puppets quickly attacked him behind him, but he calmly spoke to the puppet.
He believed that with Chiyo's strength, he could definitely hear his words through the puppet. After all, obtaining information through the puppet was also an ability of the puppet master.
"Are you too old, but you still disappoint me anyway."
As soon as the words fell, Hatake Sakumo disappeared from the spot instantly, and the puppet behind him finally arrived.
But at this moment, a puppet suddenly collapsed on the ground. It was obvious that its control had been cut off by Hatake Sakumo!
As someone who had been dealing with Sand Hidden Village for many years during his lifetime, he was really familiar with these puppet masters, and he was now at the peak of his physical state.
The resurrection of Zhentu Reincarnation directly put him in the strongest state. Without a special blood inheritance, he can exert all his strength at this moment!
"You, who should be buried in hell, why do you want to crawl out of hell again!"
Chiyo gritted her teeth and shouted angrily. Although she lost a puppet, she still continued to attack.
It's just that her heart is full of indignation now. She really doesn't understand why such a hateful person can crawl out of hell. She doesn't understand why God is so unfair.
This guy killed so many people in Sand Hidden Village, including her son and daughter-in-law, but how could she accept that such a hateful person could survive?
"Of course I climbed out to deal with you."
Hatake Sakumo smiled disdainfully, his chakra surged rapidly, and his aura had reached its peak.
"If you hadn't taken action against Konoha, why do you think I would appear here?
Whether it was World War II or the Third World War at that time, which time did you not cause trouble for us?
Our people can die, but your people can't?
Those who start wars always have to pay the price. This was true before and it is true now!
Okay, the nonsense is over, the battle should be over now."
As soon as the words fell, the Konoha army behind Hatake Sakumo had fully deployed, and they were roaring towards the Sunagakure army...
