Chapter 593 In the name of Hinata

The border between the country of earth and the country of ghosts.

Heavy snow covered the wilderness. Compared with yesterday, the snowflakes that fell today are much lighter.

At a glance, the wilderness connecting the two countries is seriously desertified. Although it has not reached the level of desertification, it is not far behind.

Most areas have no vegetation coverage and are full of barrenness.

On the way forward, there are jagged rocks, some of which are low and can be jumped up in two or three moves, and some of which are towering and steep, overlapping abruptly, as if straight into the sky.

On a slightly higher rock, as the captain of the army, Iwagakushi, the son of the third generation of Tukage, was lying on the steep rock, motionless.

His clothes and hair are covered with snowflakes. He holds a military telescope in his hand, and puts it in front of his eyes to observe the distance carefully.

Late last night, he took advantage of the attention of the Oni Kingdom to focus on the Konoha ninjas in the Bear Country, and led the Iwa Ninja Troop assembled by thousands of people to successfully pull out a stronghold in the east of the Oni Kingdom.

Although pulling out this stronghold caused some losses to the troops he led, considering the importance of capturing this stronghold in the next battle, this loss did not make Huang Tu feel distressed.

Different from other villages, Yan Yin has been recuperating since the Battle of Kannabi Bridge more than ten years ago.

It can be said that the armed force of Iwain is the most complete ninja village in Daguo Ninja Village.

On the scale of ninja, it even surpassed Konoha, second only to Yun Yin.

In addition, Yanyin is good at the technique of earth escape and combined attack. If he lined up and faced it head-on, Huang Tu firmly believed that the ninjas in Yanyin Village would not lose to anyone.

Even Konoha Ninja Village, which was in its heyday and was invincible at the time, suffered a lot in this regard.

If it weren't for a yellow flash, the third ninja war would never have ended with Konoha's final victory.

But now Iwagakushi has formed an ally with the once hostile Konoha, and has begun to run counter to the former ally "Hyuga Ayane". This dramatic change made Huangtu lament the impermanence of fate.

He was very clear about his father's intention to intervene in this war.

Different from Yun Yin, the military threat of the ghost country is close at hand, and it becomes more and more serious as time goes by. Once a war breaks out between the two countries, there will be no buffer zone, and they can directly invade each other's homeland.

There is such a "friendly neighbor", and his father Ohnoki has often suffered from insomnia, headaches and anxiety over the past few years.

If it weren't for this four-nation alliance, then, with his father's cunning and cunning behavior, he would never have taken part in such a dangerous war.

It's easy to say if you win, but if you lose, the life of Land of Land and Rock Yin will be difficult in the future.

So, this war must not be lost!

Huang Tu stared at the front carefully with the military binoculars, observing the movement ahead, and did not relax for a moment.

Behind the huge rock he was lying on, stood densely packed figures, with serious expressions, in a fighting posture. They only needed Huangtu's order, and they would charge and use the prepared earth escape technique in their hands to bury the enemy.

"Master Huangtu, the enemy army is approaching and will soon enter the ambush circle."

A rock ninja who is good at hiding in the earth, drilled half of his body from the hard rock face, and reported the situation ahead to the loess still lying on the rock.

"Well, I saw it, let me know and get ready to fight."

In the military telescope, Huang Tu also took advantage of the condescending advantage to see the movement in the distance.

Those are 'steel creations' that have never been seen before. The whole body is made of steel, and the bottom is a rolling track that can grip the ground.

In front of this steel creation, a long gun barrel was also mounted. The muzzle was dark and deep, and the bottom could not be seen.

Such a strange steel creation, at first glance, will remind people of a rough and wild aesthetic.

The rolling 'steel', like a black torrent, crushed the ground and moved forward.

Around these 'steel', there is also a walking army composed of ninjas from the ghost country, some of whom are wearing precious and rare chakra armor.

According to Huang Tu's estimate, the number of this infantry army should be 500. Although they are going out as mechanized troops, their mobility is obviously more flexible than that of bulky armored vehicles. Therefore, they can clean up the "rats" approaching the mechanized troops very well, so as to ensure that the mechanized troops have sufficient firepower.

Seeing this army of mixed ninjas and steel chariots, Huangtu frowned.

It's not that he underestimated the combat capability of this army, but that he didn't see the commander of this army.

Could it be that he hid behind the troops and was blocked from view, so he didn't see it?

Besides, they only sent so few people to guard the eastern border of the ghost kingdom. Could it be that Yan Yin was underestimated?

Only 1,000 people were used to attack the eastern stronghold of Oni Land last night, but with the arrival of support troops, the number of Iwagakure ninjas gathered here has reached more than 3,000.

In addition, there are two thousand-man companies, sitting in the rear, to ensure that the transportation and supply work can be smoothly connected to the front line.

It's not that they look down on the power of ninjas and technological weapons in the kingdom of ghosts, but it's too reckless to rely on this kind of steel 'toy' to smooth out such a huge gap in the number of people.

Just as he was thinking this way, the walking army organized by ninjas stopped in the area visible through the telescope.

Along with the walking army, there were hundreds of armored artillery vehicles.

The picture seemed to freeze in an instant, only the cold wind mixed with snowflakes blowing away.

"Sure enough, there is no way to ambush. If so, then"

Huang Tu saw that the troops of the Kingdom of Ghosts stopped advancing. As expected, their troops could not hide their figures from the enemy's perception ninjas and white-eyed ninjas.

Then, the so-called hiding is meaningless. They can only rush forward from the front, and use the combination of earth escape ninjutsu to completely disrupt the formation of the ghost country troops, and then bury those 'steel toys' that seem to have sufficient firepower deep underground to make them useless.

As long as they stand on the ground, they are invincible.

So Huang Tu stood up, put away the military binoculars in his hand, put them in his bosom, then stretched out his hand, ready to make an attack gesture.

"Master Huangtu, look at the top, there is a sudden powerful Chakra reaction!"

The perception ninjas on the left and right opened their eyes suddenly, turned back, and pointed to the sky.

Huang Tu couldn't help but turn around, his eyes followed the direction the perception ninja was pointing at, and swept towards the gray and snowy sky.

A dark dot appeared in the gray sky, and gradually enlarged as it descended.

It wasn't until close that Huang Tu and others saw the true face of this black spotit was a person.

Moreover, judging from that familiar figure, he was still an old acquaintance on the battlefield of the Third Ninja World War

Hyuga Ayane!

"Everyone back off!"

Huangtu realized something, his face changed in shock, and he shouted at the Yanyin ninja who was still staring at the sky below.

However, when he yelled this sentence, it was already too late.

Like a meteorite falling to the ground, the soil mixed with snowflakes accompanied by a bang, and under the action of the terrifying impact force, flew around, billowing dust and smoke.

This sudden landing attack caught the Iwanin by surprise, causing many Iwanin to roll out involuntarily, leaving scars all over their bodies, and they couldn't get up again.

"Don't be obsessed with fighting, keep your distance! The middle ninja and lower ninja step back, and the upper ninja is responsible for restraining them!"

Seeing a brief confusion in the formation, Huang Tu began to command the audience, keeping the powerful Jnin in place, while the weaker Chunin and Genin only needed to evacuate to a safe zone.

Military orders are like a mountain, and amidst the chaos, the rock ninjas have found their backbone.

According to Huangtu's arrangement, they left the upper ninjuan and let the middle nin and lower ninja quickly withdraw from the center of the battlefield.

The tactical arrangement is indeed just right. Considering the gap in the personal "quality" of the two sides, this approach will undoubtedly minimize the loss of Iwanin.

Unfortunately, at the moment Huangtu issued this order, a figure rushed out of the dust and smoke.

Ninja outfits remade from kimonos danced with long jet-black hair while leaping. On such a cold and frozen soil, there was a bright smile on his face that was as dazzling as the sun.

While it has a sweet taste, it also makes people feel that her sweet smile is mixed with biting coldness and blood.

As soon as she rushed out of the dust and smoke, without any hesitation, under the cover of her white eyes, the formation of Iwanin troops could be seen at a glance, all within the'range'.

"The arrangement is good, but it must be free to arrange!"

Overcoming the resistance of the two Iwagakushi Jnin, Ayane gave up fighting with them, directly broke through the Jnin's defense line at extreme speed, and jumped to the densely packed Chunin and Jnin area.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but the smile on her face became even brighter.

"Back to the days!"

The body and the long hair swirl, and the chakra surges out from the palm, forming a chakra ball, fully covering the twenty or thirty Chunin and Genin around it.

When the body stopped dancing, the nearby zhongnin and xianin were all bounced off, and fell to the ground either dead or maimed.

A circular pothole with a diameter of ten meters formed at Ayane's feet.

"Earth Dungeon Rock Iron Cannon!"

The nearby Chunin who were not affected, as well as the Jnin who came up quickly to support them, began to form seals, opened their mouths, spit out stones that were not as big as fists, and flew towards Ayane in the pit.

During the flight, these stones rapidly increased in size and turned into rock shells larger than adults.

Smashing on a human body is enough to smash human flesh and blood into pieces.

The huge rock shell passed through the afterimage, and Ayane disappeared from the spot. When she reappeared, she had landed on the top of an Iwanin's head, and raised her right arm to aim.

Boom!

The earth exploded.

A huge gap in the crowd appeared, accompanied by the impact of the rock ninjas.

"Okay, so fast!"

Surprised by Ayane's speed, their rock iron cannons have not yet achieved success, and the gap here has been opened.

Even Jonin can hardly follow her steps, let alone block her from the front.

This is an impossible job.

"Earth Dungeon Earthquake Core!"

A Iwagakushi Jnin seized the opportunity to make the land where Ayane fell down endlessly, intending to build a cage to trap Ayane in the ground, and then use the earth escape combined attack to annihilate her.

It was a good idea, but as soon as the land started to sag downward, Ayane's figure disappeared from the land.

Boom!

The familiar explosion sounded, it was the sound of Ayane tearing the ground with her palm, and another area densely packed with rock ninja appeared.

This kind of disorderly rushing and stabbing made it impossible for the rock ninjas to figure out what Ayane was thinking in his heart, and what rules were used to launch the assault on this battlefield.

So, the rock ninjas were completely confused.

Junin wanted to contain Ayane, but Ayane didn't entangle with them, but relied on the swift and fierce martial arts to look for the weaker zhongnin and lower ninja in the crowd.

The Chunin and Genin wanted to evacuate the battlefield, but in front of Bai Yan, unless their instantaneous speed could far surpass Ayane, they would have to resign themselves to escape.

For ninjas at Ayane's level, as long as they don't encounter special esoteric ninjutsu, or zhongnin and low ninja who are good at earth escape and stealth, they will basically catch one and die.

Although Ayane's efficiency in annihilating the enemy is not high due to the pure body technique, and most of the time she needs to get close to the target to kill, but relying on her own excellent instantaneous body technique, if it continues for a long time, it will still make the rock ninjas unable to bear it and suffer heavy losses.

"Damn it!"

The middle ninja and lower ninja who were arrested and fled also held a ball of anger in their stomachs.

Since there is no way to escape, it is natural to fight desperately to gain valuable opportunities for the Junin.

Aiming at the right moment, two Iwagakure chuunin circled behind Ayane, holding Kunai and stabbing them.

They naturally knew that such a surprise attack would be useless in front of Bai Yan.

But as long as Ayane's attention is drawn, it is enough to give the others a chance to attack.

What's more, two fists are hard to fight with four hands. Even if you have all-round reconnaissance eyes, it is impossible to always resist attacks from all directions.

It is the most stupid way to break into the enemy's line alone.

Just as they were thinking this way, a black shadow crossed their necks.

The heads rolled down, so fast that they didn't react, and their consciousness was plunged into black smoke.

The shadow under Ayane's feet transformed from a phantom to a solid protruding plane. There were only a handful of dark shadow weapons, and the tips of weapons such as knives, swords, and spears emerged from the shadows, ready to go.

It seems to be telling these rock ninjas with a cold and cruel fact that a self-righteous sneak attack is also a dead end!

"What a good boy, no wonder Mr. Baishi has been reluctant to let you go."

She doesn't cooperate with shadow dancers many times, but as long as she is in an isolated and helpless battlefield, even Ayane can feel a sense of security called peace of mind from her heart when she thinks that there is such a terrible weapon hidden in her shadow.

So, continue to rush.

Using flesh and blood to smash the surrounding rocky mountains, causing large chunks of rocks to fall down, tearing apart the passing ground and creating chaos.

"Asshole, don't run!"

Iwagakushi's Junin chased after him and surrounded him.

However, only the corpses of Iwanin were left on the ground, and Ayane jumped to another battlefield again, and began to hunt and kill the panic-stricken zhongnin and jinnin, completely ignoring the pursuit of the upper ninjas.

The anger of the rock ninjas is useless. They are good at attacking the earth dungeon, creating favorable terrain, and trapping the enemy in the prison formed by the earth dungeon, but they are not known for their mobility.

Of course, it is not impossible to trap Ayane, as long as "sacrifice" those Chunin and Genin who are entangled by Ayane, the chaos can be stopped.

As the commander, Huang Tu naturally noticed this, just when he was considering whether to do so

The cannon sounded.

Accompanied by distant roars, shells fell from the sky like burning meteors.

Every time a shell hits the ground, it will spray a burst of fire on the ground, setting off a scorching light mist, and the terrifying shock wave will spread to the surroundings, shaking the ground.

The towering rock mountains were cracked by the artillery fire, and the large rocks were washed down like a rainstorm, and the rock ninja who couldn't dodge in the future fell to the ground.

Huang Tu's face was pale, and he suddenly realized something.

"Retreat! Everyone"

Just finished speaking, a shell fell, the rock mountain burst, and burst into flames.

The loess was rolling on the ground in disgrace, dust and smoke rolled, and when he stood up, half of his body was stained red with blood, a large piece of skin on his forehead was scratched, and he coughed violently.

"Captain Huangtu!"

The accompanying guards rushed up regardless of the danger, and made earth walls to resist the shells flying from a distance.

The flames scattered the earth and rocks, causing another violent explosion.

"Don't worry about me, let me know quickly. The first to tenth squadrons will stay behind, and the rest of the squadrons will retreat!"

Huang Tu clutched his blood-stained left arm, unable to move.

If he hadn't used the earth escape to harden his body in an instant, the cannonball just now would have killed him immediately.

Even if he does not die, he will end up seriously injured at the least.

The artillery fire was still roaring, and the sky was full of flames spraying out from the nozzle of the armored artillery vehicle's barrel without stopping. One shell flew out, and the next shell immediately followed, directly hitting the enemy forces two kilometers away.

"Attention, there are rock ninjas lurking underground, ready to fight!"

Protecting the walking ninja troops of the mechanical troops, one of the Hinata Clan's ninjas with white eyes summoned everyone by facing the communicator.

Received this news, some of the ninjas of the ghost country began to form seals, and their bodies escaped into the soil to resist the lurking rock hidden ninjas, and fought the enemy underground to prevent the enemy from disrupting the sneak attack of the mechanized troops.

"The whole army rushes!"

Following an order.

The pitch-black steel rolled, accompanied by the flying snow, forming a dark torrent, rushing forward.

The steel chariot crushed earth and rocks while firing artillery fire at a distance, bombarding indiscriminately.

The ninjas from the Oni Nation, who were walking, charged at the front, and engaged in close combat with the Iwa Ninja who charged from behind.

Fire and fog burned the entire wilderness rocky land, and the sky was also ablaze.

In the rocky area covered by fire and gray mist, a figure ignored the roar of the shelling and the terrifying shock waves formed by the shelling. Like a thousand troops, one person stabbed several times back and forth among the enemy troops, greatly hindering the retreat of the rock ninjas.

Therefore, such a magical scene appeared

Flame shock waves formed by shells spread continuously on both sides, and the deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth, causing the ground to tremble non-stop. Countless rocks fell like raindrops, and a figure flew past like lightning, turning the black and thin shadow blade in the shadow under his feet, and the heads of rock ninjas along the way rolled down, and then the artillery fire covered them.

And that figure was still galloping forward, so that the chasing cannonballs could only follow her heels and eat dirt non-stop, leaping and spinning her slender body, just like dancing a gorgeous dance of death in the middle of the battlefield, like entering a land of no one, and it is irresistible.

It is white **** of death bringing despair!

In the fortress-like fortress, it was originally cast by the army of the kingdom of ghosts. At this moment, almost half of the area has been destroyed. The golden sand sea has died down outside the fortress.

Standing on the high wall of the fortress, Luo Sha of the Four Generations of Fengying looked at the boundless yellow sand in the distance and the sun that was about to sink in the sky. For a while, he felt a sense of elation.

Five or six years ago, the Kingdom of Wind ceded more than half of the land in the northwest region of the Kingdom of Wind to the Kingdom of Ghosts because of the defeat of the Sand Hidden Ninja. This can be said to be the most shameful foreign war since the founding of the Kingdom of Wind.

Now, under the leadership of Fengying, although he has not completely regained the lost ground, he has taken a very crucial step.

The kingdom of ghosts, which was encircled and suppressed by Shinobu villages in the four countries at the same time, is already in jeopardy as a big country.

Next, Shayin only needs to push the flames, not only can get back all the land that was lost, but also get a lot of wealth from it.

The splendor of Hidden Sand and the Kingdom of Wind is just around the corner.

"Kazekage-sama."

Confidant Jonin Maki walked up, looking in the same direction as Rasha.

"How's it going?"

"The deployment has been completed, and the various brigades and squadrons have also assembled. In addition, the military fortress of the ghost country in the front area has also been investigated, and the army can be used to advance at any time."

Maki replied, with a look of excitement on his face.

In this four-nation alliance, Sand Hidden Village invested 5,000 sand ninjas for this war, and was led by Kazekage, one of the five kages, with the idea of regaining their homeland and breaking into the kingdom of ghosts. Active participation.

"There is no rush for now, wait for the good news from Konoha and Iwagakure. In addition, Kirigakure needs to contain the main force of the other side of the Demon Kingdom from the sea. At that time, it is the best time for us to attack!"

Luo Sha looked at the beautiful and peaceful sunset in the distant sky, which is extremely rare in the desert country.

He admired such a beautiful scenery, and a heroic spirit of pointing the country suddenly arose in his heart.

"Master Kazekage, the battle report between Konoha and Iwagakure has arrived."

Anbe Anbu of Sand Yin jumped up, knelt down on one knee, and presented Luo Sha with the battle report from Konoha and Yan Yin.

"Maki, it seems that the day when we attack the kingdom of ghosts is coming soon."

Luo Sha smiled at Ma Ji.

Markey also smiled, as if he felt that victory was close at hand.

Luo Sha picked up the two battle report letters submitted by Anbu.

Opening the first envelope, it was a battle report belonging to Konoha. He glanced at it twice, the smile on his face disappeared slowly, and his brows frowned.

Without speaking, Luo Sha continued to open the second envelope, scanning Yanyin's battle report.

Maki glanced at Luo Sha who had read the two battle reports but didn't say a word afterwards, and suddenly felt that the muscles on the face of Kazekage-sama whom he respected were very stiff, and the originally vigorous smile disappeared from his face at some point.

It must be because of the excitement and insomnia these days, and the illusion of not having a good rest.

Victory is in sight, how could Kazekage-sama show such a demoralizing expression?

Well, this must be an illusion.

Maki comforted himself in this way.
