Chapter 150 The Battle Begins
"Okay, now that everyone understands, let's formulate a strategy!"
Minato called for everyone to form a circle, and he picked up a branch and drew it on the ground.
"Although we have not been able to detect the specific location of the enemy, we have determined that the enemy is using a puppet ninja tool to ambush and warn, so the puppet master will most likely not be too far away."
"If it is really the Suna Ninja's infiltration force, maybe the enemy will be a force composed of Jonin, and the number will be no less than ten..."
Minato was able to draw concise and clear diagrams with just a few strokes. In this aspect alone, he was infinitely better than Hinata Gen's blind drawings.
Moreover, they were both people who had read information from various countries. Although Hyuga Gen could still remember the information, he had not yet learned how to apply it, unlike Minato who could easily grasp it.
"How come you can see the strength and number of people again? Why can't I see it?"
Obito scratched his head in pain.He didn't want to embarrass himself in front of Lin and look stupid.
But there are priorities. This kind of mission, which involves direct contact with enemy ninjas, may be life-threatening at any time. Pretending to understand is the most stupid thing to do.
That’s right!What about you, Akai!
Hinata Yuan had already noticed it.Sure enough, when Tsunade wanted to explain her compensation, Akai listened more seriously than anyone else.
"Puppet masters are rare, and there are even fewer puppet masters who can control multiple puppets with one person. So among these twelve puppets, at most one or two pairs are controlled by the same puppet master, and the rest should be controlled by one person... …”
"As for strength... Huh! No ninja village would send chuunin to infiltrate an enemy country unless it was absolutely necessary."
Tsunade glanced at Obito and was quite dissatisfied with this chuunin who didn't understand anything:
"Without intelligence, support, or supplies, going deep behind enemy lines is one of the most dangerous tasks. Jounin often make mistakes. Sending a chuunin is simply a matter of death!"
Facing a ninja of the Sannin level, Obito didn't dare to talk back, and he could only suffer in silence when he was criticized. Fortunately, Lin saw Obito's disappointment and smiled to cheer him up.
Hinata Yuan was silent.
Sending chuunin deep behind enemy lines is tantamount to committing suicide...
But in the original plot, Kakashi and others went deep behind enemy lines to cut off the enemy's supply lines, and a battle broke out at the Kannabi Bridge in the Land of Earth.
Lin died in the battle of Kannabi Bridge, and Obito also gave his Sharingan to Kakashi in this battle...
Letting the chunin complete such an important battle shows how critical Konoha was at that time.
Now with Hyuga Gen's warning, Konoha has made preparations in advance. I wonder if it can stop being so tragic...
"Okay, these are just speculations based on clues. They cannot be completely regarded as facts."
Minato tapped the ground with a wooden stick to call back everyone's attention, and then said:
"If the enemy is more stupid, then they should hide in the middle of the defense circle formed by the puppets. If the enemy is more cunning... it won't be too far away. The puppets are here, can the puppet master be far away?"
After fully obtaining Tsunade's consent, Minato temporarily became the commander-in-chief of the two teams. He arranged:
"In this way, Tsunade-sama will lead Kakashi, Obito and Akai to launch a feint attack into the puppet defense circle. I will lead Hinata Gen, Shisui and Lin to occupy the commanding heights and be responsible for observing and pursuing the pursuit."
"In case the enemy is not within the circle, we have to rely on speed to catch up and destroy the enemy! Any questions?"
"no!"
Everyone responded in unison and began to march towards the enemy.
Along the way, Hyuga Gen, who was interested in learning Minato's fighting wisdom, carefully analyzed the significance of such a division, only to find that although it was still not perfect, it was already the best way to distribute the troops.
First of all, among the two captains, the one in charge of the outer area must be Minato who is famous for his speed. The same goes for Shisui, and he is responsible for observation.
As a result, Lin who is not good at speed must also be assigned, otherwise, there will be two medical ninjas in charge of the inner circle.This is the trade-off.
Hyuga Gen, who was lamenting Minato's fighting wisdom, never guessed that Minato just thought it would be better to have a woman on one side...
Men and women match, work is not tired.
"We have reached the predetermined position, be ready. Three, two, one...attack!"
Following Minato's order, Tsunade led the three chunin directly into the puppet's defense circle.
Even Tsunade had to admire that when these puppet ninja tools were at rest, there was almost no chakra flow, making them a perfect ambush method.
If Hinata Yuan's powers of observation weren't far beyond ordinary people's, she might not have been able to detect this ambush.
It's just that those who ambush her, Tsunade-hime, will have no happy ending!
boom!
Since Hyuga Gen had provided the specific location of the puppet before, although Tsunade didn't feel there was anything fishy about the stone, she still punched it.
Sure enough, the hammered stone contained many gears, springs and other parts...
"Oh, are even the parts made of stone? No wonder it's so hard to detect. What a pity, it's still vulnerable!"
Tsunade took the lead and rushed into the center of the defensive circle.Kakashi, Obito and Kai followed closely behind, attacking three corners that looked like a patrol field.
"Earth Escape·Split Fang!"
"Fire escape · Howe Fireball!"
"The Konoha Whirlwind!"
With a crackle of hammering, Kakashi and Akai each eliminated a puppet disguised as a stone, and Obito also burned a wooden puppet disguised as a big tree.
As soon as they came up, the enemy lost four puppets.
"Enemy attack! Come on!"
In the middle of the circle surrounded by puppets, in a seemingly ordinary place, the scenery is like a water gate, causing a wave of fluctuations, and it is getting more and more violent.
Soon, the scenery was torn open, and the Sand Ninja hiding inside rushed out.
Good guy, it’s actually a disguised barrier, so hidden!
Hyuga Gen was amazed.
How can I say that I only see puppets and no people in the distance?It turned out that everyone was hiding in the barrier. I was careless and didn't see through it on the spot.
No, someone wants to run away!
Seeing that their position was exposed, although six or seven Sand Ninja rushed towards Tsunade and the others, two of them actually fled without a fight. It was not clear whether it was a tactic or to deceive their teammates.
Ri Xiangyuan immediately reported points to his teammates:
"Minato-sama! At seven o'clock, at nine o'clock, there are two ninjas escaping!"
"Shisui, I am seven and you are nine, you can only delay but not fight, come on!"
"As ordered!"
Minato made a quick decision and directly greeted Shisui and rushed forward.Perhaps considering that the enemy should be at a Jonin level, Minato only hoped that Shisui could temporarily contain the escaping enemy.
Now, only Hinata Yuan and Nohara Lin are left.At this moment, Hinata Yuan discovered that there was actually a disguise barrier outside the puppet defense circle.
Before he could say anything, he saw a sand ninja emerge from it, turned around and ran away!
