Chapter 694 Disagreement
Shisui stood on the Hokage Rock, wearing a thin black short-sleeved shirt.
He looked down at the entire Konoha Village, paying no attention to the gazes of the villagers below him, simply taking in the beauty of the village.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
He raised his head, looked up at the sky, and sighed deeply.
Then he turned around and leaned on the railing of the rooftop, a hint of confusion in his absent-minded eyes.
"Itachi, it would be great if you were here..."
Whenever he thought of his friend bearing the name of "evil", Shisui felt endless annoyance in his heart and he clenched his fists tightly.
How long do I have to endure those ninja guys?
"Itachi, if you were here, what would you choose? Would you support those ninja clans who want to negotiate with the Land of Hot Springs, or would you continue to fight... Konoha now... seems to be unable to withstand the ravages of war... I am becoming more and more confused. Could it be that the Fourth Hokage and I are wrong?"
He muttered to himself, looking at the young and handsome rock statue of the Fourth Hokage, and felt a splitting headache coming on. It seemed that his own beliefs were gradually collapsing.
Just as he was feeling sentimental, he suddenly heard footsteps. His gaze shifted from the Fourth Hokage's Hokage Rock to the entrance to the rooftop.
A ninja dressed in ANBU clothing appeared and half-knelt on the ground facing him.
"Mr. Minister, there is news from the Fourth Generation asking you to attend a meeting."
"Meeting? Is this another bullshit Jonin meeting!?"
Shisui sneered, a look of impatience instantly appearing on his face.
Those cowardly guys, Shisui felt that after staying with them for too long, his will seemed to be affected.
"What?" The Anbu ninja was stunned.
"Nothing." Shisui waved his hand, his expression quickly returning to calm. "I understand, you can go down."
"Yes!"
......
Northern Fire Country.
Konoha Camp.
As the dark night fell, the area where the camp was located was illuminated as bright as day by the lights on the fence.
In the woods one kilometer outside the camp.
"Everyone stop for a moment and come over for dinner."
Along with the sound of clapping hands, the patrol team who were patrolling the lookout tower relaxed, put down their work, and jumped straight down from the lookout tower more than ten meters high.
Soon, staff members in logistics uniforms came forward with steaming hot lunch boxes and handed them to the patrol ninjas one by one.
In these days of war and smoke, daily meal time is undoubtedly the most anticipated and satisfying moment.
This means they can temporarily let go of their guard and their mentally exhausting work and indulge in a rare meal.
After all, in such a boring life, being able to enjoy a delicious hot meal is the happiest thing.
"Damn it! When will this kind of life end?"
Sitting on the ground, the team leader cursed and shook his head.
"It's actually pretty good. It's more comfortable than when there's a war."
The other ninjas on the team smiled and consoled him.
"But it's also true that compared to our companions who are resting in the camp, our days of patrolling outside are indeed somewhat boring and difficult."
The other person complained a little, with dissatisfaction revealed in his tone.
Only a Byakugan Hyuga ninja in the team shook his head and said nothing, but he obviously found it very boring.
While eating, he did not forget to roll his eyes and kept alert everywhere, obviously not completely letting his guard down.
Just quickly.
His whole body suddenly trembled, and the chewing action in his mouth stopped.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
The captain's expression suddenly became serious and he asked immediately.
As the strongest reconnaissance ninja in the team, the opponent's performance at this moment obviously means that an emergency has occurred.
"A large number of mutant monsters have appeared ahead. The number, the number... I can't count them! But what is certain is that the number of monsters is still growing continuously..."
Hearing this, the ninjas in the team suddenly stood up, staring at the direction of the forest ahead, their faces becoming increasingly solemn.
The Byakugan Ninja was trembling all over, as if he had seen something horrible.
Within the range that his Byakugan could observe, large numbers of mutant insects containing chakra in their bodies were emerging from the soil at an alarming rate and increasing rapidly, one after another, from all directions, in an endless stream.
Judging from the direction, it was obvious that they were heading towards their camp!
The other side of the forest was so dark that it was frightening, but also full of dark mystery.
Soon, the other three people in the team took out the flares in their hands without hesitation, then turned around and ran towards the camp.
Not long after.
Suddenly, a series of dark shadows rushed out from the forest, running at an astonishing speed on the grass, and rushed towards the camp at lightning speed.
The shrill alarm sounded suddenly all over the camp shrouded in darkness, breaking the tranquility of the night.
......
The Konoha camp was surrounded by a high wall, and countless Konoha ninjas were pouring in from below.
"Everyone, keep your formation and prepare for a ninjutsu battle!"
As the commanding ninja's voice sounded, the ninjas stationed on the wall nodded one after another.
Soon, they saw a large number of black shadows as tall as a person rushing out of the forest at a rapid speed. Although they were stunned for a moment by the momentum, they quickly reacted and shouted loudly.
"Don't panic, we have a barrier to block them. These bugs can't get in!!"
The Hyuga ninjas with Byakugan shouted loudly.
They clearly identified the identities of these monsters that suddenly attacked. They were the legendary "Earth Dragon Army" from the Tang Ninja Village!
"Fire Escape!" the commander roared.
The Konoha ninjas below all began to form hand seals, then opened their mouths wide and spit out balls of orange flames outside the wall, which quickly expanded in the air.
But it's not over yet.
"Wind escape!"
The other team, which obviously had much fewer ninjutsu, simultaneously blew out strong gusts of wind, instantly amplifying the combined fire escape attack several times!
Soon, raging flames were burning all around the camp. The flames rising into the sky were even hotter than the sun to the Konoha ninjas inside the camp!
