Chapter 102 Sneak Attack
With the large-scale invasion by Sunagakure and Iwagakure, the pressure on Konoha has increased significantly, and the atmosphere at the front-line camp has become increasingly tense.
"How about we send Minato to the battlefield?"
Inside the command post, Tsunade frowned, her tone hesitant: "The number of wounded on the front lines is increasing. With Minato here, the pressure should be greatly relieved. He inherited my medical ninjutsu and also has the Flying Thunder God Technique. No one can harm him."
"I agree with Tsunade's suggestion."
Jiraiya nodded: "If you're worried about Minato's safety, I can go with him."
Mitokado Homura ignored the two, his eyes glued to the map of the battle zone. He suddenly asked, "Minato's clones can also use the Flying Thunder God Technique, right?"
"It is possible, but the clone's speed is not as fast as the main body, and its perception range is also more limited."
Tsunade thought for a moment: "But if it's for supporting a rescue operation, it should be enough."
"Recently, Sunagakure and Iwagakure seem to be intentionally using their numerical advantage to attack our mission team."
Mitokado Yan tapped his fingertips lightly on the table: "I suspect this is very likely aimed at Minato."
"Isn't this too sensitive? Since they've chosen to form an alliance, they should naturally make good use of their numerical advantage."
Jiraiya hesitated, "Besides, such a huge investment is practically risking lives—Minato is just a child, surely it's not worth making them go to such lengths?"
"How could it not be that bad?"
Mitokado Homura shook his head slightly. Among the younger generation, even Tsunade, the First Hokage's granddaughter, didn't fully understand the power of Wood Release.
But their generation knows it all too well!
Do you really think that the peace during the first era was achieved through kowtowing?
Anyone who heard that some ruthless person had single-handedly captured almost all the tailed beasts would probably think twice about whether they wanted peace or death!
It's worth noting that the Hidden Cloud Village once mobilized the entire village to try and capture the Nine-Tails, but ultimately failed.
As a result, when it came to the first generation, capturing tailed beasts was as easy as capturing chicks.
If such a ruthless person earnestly tells you that you want peace and not war, then you'd better love peace even more than him.
If Minato hadn't shown enough talent, that would have been fine, since everyone knows that the strength of ninjutsu is related to the user.
But given the talent Minato has shown so far, he may very well become another Hashirama Senju in the future.
It was Hashirama Senju who mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique!
"not good!"
Just as Mitokado Homura was deep in thought, the expression of the Yamanaka clan ninja in charge of sensing suddenly changed: "A Sunagakure squad is rapidly moving towards the northern battlefield. They are moving very fast and seem to have mastered flight ninjutsu."
"The target direction is the retreat route of the northern troops."
"Wow!"
Jiraiya stood up without hesitation.
"No, you stay here and call Minato over."
Mitokado Yan shook his head, and soon Mitokado came into the tent.
"Minato, immediately send your clone to the northern battlefield to support Sakumo Hatake. Your main body should remain hidden for now."
Mitomon Yan said seriously.
"yes!"
Minato nodded and created a wooden clone.
The clone vanished in the next instant.
Using the Flying Thunder God mark left when searching for Nagato, the clone quickly appeared on the northern battlefield.
At this moment, the battlefield was filled with smoke, and corpses and severed limbs were everywhere.
The strong smell of blood and the burnt smell of the explosive tags lingered in the air.
Sakumo Hatake, wielding the White Fang short sword, moved through the enemy ranks like lightning. With each flash of his blade, a Sand Village or Iwa Village ninja fell.
However, as time went on, his breathing became noticeably rapid, and sweat trickled down his forehead.
The Third Kazekage stood on iron sand, hovering in mid-air, with three members of the Shadow Guard behind him.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, the Iwagakure ninjas seemed endless, constantly pouring into the fray.
"This is troublesome—"
Sakumo Hatake looked grave as he saw the Third Kazekage blocking his retreat route.
On this battlefield, if you were to ask him who the opponent he least wanted to face was, it would definitely be the Third Kazekage.
Sakumo Hatake wielded a sword, while the Third Kazekage mastered Magnet Release!
This rendered his prized swordsmanship almost useless.
"Konoha's White Fang—"
The Third Kazekage crossed his arms, iron sand constantly gathering behind him: "You deserve some credit for the losses of the vanguard."
"I was just an accomplice!"
Sakumo Hatake's expression turned serious: "If I apologize, could you let us pass?"
"You're quite humorous."
The Third Kazekage sneered and, with a wave of his hand, unleashed a torrential downpour of iron sand towards the Konoha troops.
"Earth Release·Earth Style Wall!"
On the Konoha side, several Earth Release ninjas quickly formed hand seals and erected a high wall.
Iron shot, like bullets, continuously swept across the earthen wall, producing a dense, muffled thud.
"Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet!"
From the direction of the Iwagakure forces, earthen dragons surged towards the Konoha ninjas.
Shuo Mao drew his short sword, and with a flash of light, the earth dragon was instantly beheaded.
At the same time, he suddenly turned around and spat a blazing fireball at another earth dragon.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
boom-
Under the bombardment of the fireball, the earth dragon shattered into tiny clumps of earth, which scattered in mid-air.
However, due to the disparity in numbers, the ninjutsu released by the Konoha troops was merely a drop in the ocean compared to the dense offensive of Iwagakure, and was simply unable to completely withstand Iwagakure's attack.
Just as an earthen dragon was about to crash into the crowd, a trident-shaped kunai suddenly flew through the air and stuck into the ground.
"Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique!"
With a deafening roar, the earth trembled as a wooden dragon, hundreds of meters long, rose from the ground, opened its massive jaws and bit off the earth dragon in one gulp. Then, with undiminished momentum, it blocked all the ninjutsu from the Iwagakure side!
"It's Wood Release!"
The Konoha ninjas looked delighted as they saw the blond-haired boy at the front of the crowd.
"It's Minato!"
The news of Minato's complete annihilation of the Sunagakure frontline troops had already spread throughout the ninja world, and the ninjas at the frontline camps were talking about it with great interest.
So even though only Minato came, he gave the people of Konoha a great sense of security.
Upon seeing Minato's figure, Sakumo Hatake felt a slight sense of relief.
He knew all too well just how incredibly powerful this seemingly harmless brat really was.
"Oh? Is that Minato Namikaze?"
On the other side of the battlefield, the Third Kazekage watched Minato's retreating figure, his tone complex: "What a young genius, what a pity—"
""
As he said this, he chuckled to himself and glanced in a certain direction.
The next instant, a dazzling white light suddenly shone from the edge of the battlefield!
The white light arrived with incredible speed, so fast that the smiles of the Konoha ninjas hadn't even faded before it enveloped Minato in an instant, as if it had been planned all along!
laugh-
A flash of white light appeared, and a huge, clearly defined ravine appeared where Minato had been standing, but Minato's figure had vanished.
Upon seeing this, Sakumo Hatake's pupils suddenly contracted.
"This is—Dust Release!"
"That's right, Dust Release: Particle Style - Detachment Technique—"
From the direction of Yanyin, a short figure slowly floated into the air.
With his hands behind his back, Onoki sighed with relief, "This amount of chakra, there's no mistake—it's such a pity that such a genius couldn't escape the fate of dying young."
