The Will Of Fire Cannot Save The Ninja World

Chapter 212 Uchiha Itachi, Shisui's Provocation

Chapter 212 Uchiha Itachi, Shisui's Provocation

"This time it is said to be the suppression of the Land of Rain, but it might damage the Four Great Nations instead."

Uchiha Obito sighed inwardly as he led his team forward.

It is estimated that those high-ranking daimyos did not expect that the ninjas under their hands would get confused because of hatred and the like.

In the drizzle, eight people shuttled through the woods.

The Land of Rain in winter is not pleasant. Although there is little snow here, the winter in this kind of place is the most tormenting.

The raindrops were very small, but they were like knives.

This is already the eighth day since they arrived in the Land of Rain.

After the conflict between Cloud Shinobi Village and Sunagakure, the four villages decided to separate.

Konoha's large army still followed the nobleman Kojiro, sitting in the core area, backed by the border of the Kingdom of Fire.

Sunagakure and Iwagakure, unsurprisingly, chose locations close to their own borders.

And Cloud Shinobi Village, which came from across the country, had no choice but to go southwest.

The southwest direction is close to the original Rain Shinobi Village location, which is considered to be of some commercial value.

It's just that Rain Shinobi Village exists in name only now. After Hanzō of the Salamander's death, many ninjas knew that they were powerless to resist the Akatsuki organization. They scattered and fled, leaving only empty shells.

After the people from Cloud Shinobi Village set off, Obito led them to fall far away.

Senior Tsunade said that someone might want to take the opportunity to make trouble, and they had to figure out the identity of the possible enemy.

As Uchiha Obito of the frontline intelligence department, the people brought this time are relatively close.

Except for that ninja named Nagasawa.

Nagasawa was sent by the Daming Mansion of the Land of Fire, and he didn't deal with Konoha.

Perhaps because this task is more important, Nagasawa followed him personally.

Fortunately, except for Nagasawa, the other six are all from our own family.

Aburame's, Inuzuka's, and Uchiha's.

Thinking of Uchiha's own ninja, Obito was a little worried, and looked back at the still short figure: "Itachi, can you still keep up?"

They have been tracking for a day, and even they feel a little tired due to this horrible weather.

And the short figure, only five or six years old, is worrying to look at.

To be honest, choosing Uchiha Itachi to come to the Land of Rain has experienced some twists and turns.

According to Konoha's current tradition, it is basically not recommended for children to go to the battlefield.

Even at a young age, Uchiha Itachi has reached Chūnin's level.

But Uchiha Fugaku insisted on letting Itachi come in, and so did Hokage.

What is the status of the Uchiha family in Konoha now?

Maybe it's because of Uchiha's Royal Night relationship, or maybe it's because of Uchiha's own strength and Minato's laissez-faire relationship. Now Uchiha has a very important voice.

There is a vague posture of a wealthy family who dominates Konoha.

Uchiha Fugaku, as the patriarch, arranged such a thing, and Minato couldn't stop it.

And Uchiha Fugaku's idea is very simple, that is, let his eldest son accept the baptism of the battlefield and see the cruelty of war.

Originally, he wanted to take him to the battlefield during the third battle.

It's a pity that Sunagakure was very strong at that time, and Uchiha Yuye was there - Yuye hated children on the battlefield the most, and Uchiha Fugaku didn't touch that bad luck.

Now that there is such a rare opportunity, Fugaku immediately sent Uchiha Itachi over.

And himself, at home with his wife - Mikoto has recently become pregnant again.

Uchiha Itachi is young, but has a calm temperament.

In the continuous cold rain, although his face was pale, he said calmly: "No problem."

Uchiha Obito saw this, but didn't follow him.

After all, this child is young and his physique has not yet recovered.

He gestured to the back, signaling the team to stop and rest first.

The others also breathed a sigh of relief.

Their strength varies, mostly at the Chūnin level.

It is considered a good achievement among the younger generation, but it is not a genius either.

I have been enduring it before, also because Uchiha Itachi, the youngest in the team, didn't complain.

Obito found a place to camp for the time being, and looked into the distance: "Cloud Shinobi Village is not fast, they have too many horses and cars, we can catch up with a night's rest."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Some of them have never participated in the Third Ninja World War, and they can't adapt to the rhythm.

Relaxed at this moment, I asked the seniors to talk about the battlefield and pass on their experience.

Speaking of this kind of thing, Uchiha Obito is not sleepy.

Uchiha Itachi quietly gnawed on the dry food, and was not impressed by the bragging of senior Obito—mainly because he had heard it too many times at home, and it was okay to coax him before, but since he finished the Chūnin exam ahead of schedule, he didn’t feel much up.

Besides, apart from seniors like Uchiha Yuye, the education that Uchiha Itachi has received since he was a child is extremely cruel and serious.

The family hopes that he can try to catch up in the footsteps of Uchiha Yuye, no matter how bad it is, he will have to be similar to Kakashi.

Fortunately, Uchiha Itachi's explosive potential is indeed great.

Not only in strength, but mentally he is also superior to his peers.

In silence, Itachi frowned suddenly.

Nagasawa, who was also at odds with other people on the side, noticed and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Itachi shook his head suspiciously, got up and jumped onto the top of the tree, and looked in the direction they were chasing.

His move also attracted the attention of Obito and the others.

The others followed, seeing the lights walking at night in the distance, they were a little surprised by Itachi's reaction: "What's wrong?"

Obito stood on tiptoe to look, and found nothing wrong.

Uchiha Itachi said firmly: "There are fewer of them."

Uchiha Obito was dumbfounded: "This black light is blind, and it's more than a thousand meters away. How do you know that there are fewer of them?"

He felt that his brother was a little nervous.

Uchiha Itachi shook his head, pointed ahead and said, "They have a total of 124 lights."

Uchiha Obito took a breath, how could he have counted this thing?

Are there fewer of them now?

Nagasawa on the side shook his head at this time: "They had 124 lights before."

Obito looked over in astonishment again.

Good guy, are these people paying attention so meticulously?

When he was chasing the Cloud Shinobi Village troops, half of his mind was Nohara Rin, and half of him was paying attention to whether there were any traps around him.

Counting the lights, who has nothing to do to eat?

Oh, yes, two more.

Uchiha Itachi glanced at Nagasawa and continued: "The quantity is right, but the distance is wrong."

He was very organized, he gestured on the tree with kunai, and said:

"They are carrying supplies, one team and one light. According to the previous rhythm, each team is at least two meters apart, and the speed of action is neither fast nor slow."

"Now, the way they walk is the same as before, but the distance has been opened to at least four meters, and the speed of movement has slowed down."

The other ninjas gradually came to their senses.

Under normal circumstances, there would not be such a big discrepancy.

Unless there is a problem?

or—

Nagasawa's face was a bit solemn at this time, and he said: "It is also possible that they found out that they were being followed, and then adjusted their marching thinking."

How to adjust the marching thinking?

Use lights to confuse pursuers and pretend to be marching normally.

But in this way, what everyone brought with them will basically be in the hands of others, which also slows down the marching speed and lengthens the distance.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Uchiha Itachi in astonishment.

This guy, it doesn't matter if he has strong observation skills.

How can you infer such a thing?

Although they are not 100% sure right now, it is clear that Cloud Shinobi Village has indeed taken action.

Uchiha Obito became serious: "It seems that tonight will be over, let's divide our troops."

He is now not sure if the people who disappeared in Cloud Shinobi Village quietly surrounded them in the dark.

If Konoha doesn't retreat, they can only find a way to divide their troops, then support each other, and gather intelligence.

In the end, the eight were divided into two teams.

Uchiha Obito takes Itachi, and two other ninjas.

And the Aburame family and the Inuzuka family brought Nagasawa, an outsider.

The two teams went around from left to right, and first went to see the specific situation at Cloud Shinobi Village.

It hurts to move forward after a break.

After the breath is removed, it is not easy to lift it up again.

Obito's face was solemn, observing the expressions of his teammates behind him from time to time.

Now I just have to stick to it.

Then pray that Cloud Shinobi Village doesn't find them.

A group of people detoured, carefully avoiding the route of Cloud Shinobi Village.

After about half an hour, they slowly approached.

In the darkness, Obito finally saw the troops in Chu Yun's hidden village clearly, his eyes narrowed.

"It really hit the nail on the head"

At Cloud Shinobi Village, only a quarter of the people were left, carrying heavy packages.

Hundreds of other people are missing.

Not long after, Uchiha Itachi came back with a strange expression on his face: "I found their footprints."

Obito turned around and asked, "Where did you go?"

He was very worried that the other side was surrounding them.

Itachi scratched his head, also surprised: "He went to the northwest."

"Northwest?"

Obito froze for a moment.

Here, they are southwest of Cloud Shinobi Village.

If that's the case, then Cloud Shinobi Village probably isn't for them.

But soon, Obito froze.

Because it's north-west shit, isn't that where Sunagakure is stationed?

What are these Cloud Shinobi Village lunatics trying to do?

It can't be to attack Sunagakure at night, can it?

Are their brains flooded?

"No! Watch out for the surrounding area!"

Obito let out a low cry, covered in cold sweat.

Cloud Shinobi Village would not be so reckless even if he had a strong temper.

A group of people were traveling in the rain, tired and cold, and it would be crazy to mess with Sunagakure at this time.

It's no different from dying.

But what if they received wrong information or were wrongly disturbed?

Obito quickly thought of his purpose.

"The force hiding in the dark has made a move!"

...

Meanwhile, the other side.

Nagato squatted down, carefully surveying the surrounding environment.

It's muddy after the rain, the ground is full of messy footprints, and Bloodline.

There are also traces left by Wind Style around.

No body, probably already disposed of.

Nagato's mind simulated the battle that took place here——

Suspected twenty or so ninjas using Wind Style attacked the troops of Cloud Shinobi Village.

This is likely to be the introduction to Cloud Shinobi Village's choice of nighttime surprise action.

However, Sunagakure actually made an early move?

No, not right.

Nagato is quite possibly the person here who knows Sunagakure best.

After all, he had fought in Sunagakure before and was familiar with their people.

Sunagakure isn't quite as reckless as Cloud Shinobi Village.

And Sunagakure doesn't have much hatred for Cloud Shinobi Village, after all they were victors before.

So Sunagakure has the urge to do something about Cloud Shinobi Village, but it's not a big urge.

Moreover, only more than 20 people were sent to intercept and kill

Unless there is a problem within Sunagakure and the subordinate walks alone, this kind of mistake will not be made.

"Since it's not the case, then"

Nagato took a deep breath, someone might have interfered.

Create chaos on purpose to provoke a battle between Cloud Shinobi Village and Sunagakure.

And the one who would do it--

Nagato's mood became complicated.

Sunagakure vs. Cloud Shinobi Village, who benefits the most?

Konoha may be beneficial, but not so arrogant.

And the one who got the most benefit was undoubtedly the Xiao organization.

After being silent for a long time, Nagato cleared away the traces here before his teammates came over.

After all, he is from the Kingdom of Rain.

...

"Brother Shisui, is it alright?"

The boy gently bandaged the wound on Uchiha Shisui's arm, where there was originally scorched flesh, but after it was removed, more blood flowed out.

Shisui shook his head and motioned to the teammates around him: "Don't relax, keep looking outside."

Not long ago, he fought the people of Cloud Shinobi Village in the rain.

Yes, only him.

Because among the people he brought over this time, not many know Wind Style.

Shisui's ninjutsu is not bad, and Shadow Clone is also good, so he pretended to be 20 people and attacked the troops hanging at the tail of Cloud Shinobi Village.

His strength is quite good, but he is also very powerful against opponents, and there are many people.

And during the period, he had to pay attention: while fighting, he had to master the strength and let a few people escape.

And use illusion to deepen their impression and make them believe that they are attacked by the real Sunagakure ninja.

Fortunately, judging from the results, it is not bad for the time being.

Cloud Shinobi Village was really fooled.

The original plan of Cloud Shinobi Village is definitely not to conflict with Sunagakure now, after all, they are still on their way.

But "Sunagakure" came to kill them in advance, then these reckless people would really be jealous.

They pretended to move on, but quietly sent someone to attack Sunagakure at night.

At this point, when the Cloud Shinobi Village fights over, they will be able to solve their doubts and find out that something is wrong.

But by then it was too late.

The conflict has already been established, and they are deadly enemies. In the case of the second conflict, there is a high probability that they will continue to beat their heads and blood.

At this time, Zai Bu Zhan quietly returned to the team.

Seeing Da Shisui, he said, "I found a few Konoha mice. You are from the Uchiha family."

Shisui was a little surprised, but nodded: "Don't worry about them."

He understood that Tsunade found out that something was wrong when he created the first conflict.

Fortunately, the other party did not confirm his identity.

And judging by the handling of Sunagakure and Cloud Shinobi Village, Tsunade-senpai may not have disclosed her discovery.

Looking at it this way, Senior Tsunade's attitude is somewhat interesting.

"Wind and thunder are turbulent, Konoha doesn't care"

Shisui breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that our chances of winning will be much greater."

Things really went as they expected.

In the early morning of the next day, Sunagakure and Cloud Shinobi Village really fought.

Although Cloud Shinobi Village was tired, what they didn't expect was that Sunagakure was defenseless at all.

So they took advantage of the darkness and killed many Sunagakure ninjas.

The two sides fought fiercely, and the ninjas who came to the country of rain had lost more than half of each other before they could attack the Akatsuki organization.

Although they knew afterward that someone was causing trouble, the outcome was already set.

The ninjas on both sides suffered heavy losses and became enemies again.

What's more, it's not just the two of them who have conflicts.

Now the forces among the four major powers have begun to suspect each other.

With his own strength, Shisui opened up the situation for Xianyin Island and Akatsuki on the side of the Rain Country.
