Chapter 150 Air Raid

Once a war of attrition begins, it will be extremely disadvantageous for Konoha. No matter how powerful the Fire Nation is, it is impossible for it to fight the three countries endlessly at the same time.

Mitokado En suggested retreating first to buy time with space, but was rejected by the Third Hokage. He believed that retreating would bring the war to the heartland of the Land of Fire and the losses would certainly be greater. If that were the case, he would rather remain in a stalemate in the Land of Rain and the Land of Grass.

After three months of fierce fighting, neither side was able to defeat the other, but the death toll of Konoha ninjas alone exceeded 1,500. Konoha's rear could only replenish their losses as they died one by one. If they continued to use this tactic, Konoha would definitely be the first to collapse.

Did the Third Hokage really want to throw more than 10,000 ninjas into the Land of Rain?

Obviously not.

At the headquarters of the first troop, Orochimaru summoned all the elite jonin.

"Everyone, the time for the decisive battle has come. Tonight, we must bury the Sand Ninja."

Kato Dan asked doubtfully, "Lord Orochimaru, please explain the battle plan in detail."

"In order to keep it secret, you just need to follow my steps closely. Okay, there is no point in saying more. Go back and gather all the ninjas immediately. We are going to take the initiative to attack."

"Hi." n.

It was still drizzling at night in the Rain Country. More than 4,000 Konoha ninjas were rushing towards the Sand and Rain coalition in scattered camps like a swarm of locusts.

At the same time, Shamon and Hanzo, who received the news from the scouts, mobilized all the ninjas to launch a defensive counterattack.

Due to different strategic demands, the fighting methods of both sides are of course different.

The main purpose of the Sand and Rain coalition was to delay the first unit, and most of the time they were on the defensive.

For this purpose, an extremely sturdy and huge turtle shell was built in order to fight a protracted war with Konoha.

Their camp was built on a high slope, with endless plains on all sides without even a tall tree. The view was extremely wide, and even though it rained every day, the ninjas on the lookout tower could observe every move around them.

The camp is extremely large, with a length of 2000 meters and a width of 1000 meters. Not to mention the 5000 people, even if there were another 5000 people, it could accommodate them.

The one-kilometer radius around the camp is filled with traps, and defensive and perception barriers are also set up underground to prevent sneak attacks by Konoha ninjas.

Konoha wanted to repel the enemy as quickly as possible so as to support the Second Unit which was somewhat unable to hold on. However, due to the lack of martial ethics of the Iwagakure Village, they hired Kakuzu again. This Kage-level ninja who was good at AOE brought great trouble to Konoha, and the originally balanced situation was gradually broken.

At this time, Shamon and Hanzo still thought that Konoha was going to launch the same massive attack as in the previous two times, but they didn't know that disaster was about to come.

When the Konoha ninjas were one kilometer away from the enemy camp, they began to clear the traps as usual. The difference was that this time they only cleared two sides and left the remaining two sides untouched.

The Sand Ninja and the Rain Ninja could not remain indifferent. They sent a large number of people to harass and attack from a distance. As they went deeper and deeper, Konoha's casualties began to increase.

Shamon, who was standing on a high place, did not notice the reinforcement of Konoha, nor did he feel the breath of the tailed beast. He confirmed his thoughts again and said to Hanzo beside him: "Orochimaru really has no memory. The lessons of the previous two failed attacks on the camp were not enough, and he actually came for the third time."

Hanzo analyzed: "It should be an order from Sarutobi Hiruzen. After all, due to Kakuzu's influence, the situation of Konoha's Second Division is not very good."

"Maybe."

Shamon continued to say to Ebizo on the other side: "Are all the earth escape ninjas ready?"

Ebizo replied: "Everything is ready. As long as the Konoha ninjas want to raise the ground around them, they will also raise the height of the camp, and will not give them the opportunity to attack from a high position. In addition, the sensory ninjas are also paying attention to the underground at all times. Once the enemy ninjas are found, we will immediately shrink the ground and squeeze them to death inside."

"Then there's nothing to be afraid of."

As time went by, all the traps on both sides of the camp were basically cleared, and Konoha and the Sunagawa coalition forces confronted each other with a so-called safe distance of two hundred meters in between.

But these two hundred meters are the most difficult to walk, because the area where the hundreds of large shuriken launchers and small kunai launchers are most powerful is within these two hundred meters. A rash attack will definitely result in casualties.

The Konoha ninja did not launch an attack immediately, but just stood there quietly, as if waiting for something.

Shamon was a little puzzled: What is Orochimaru doing?

"Lord Kazekage, there is someone in the sky!"

The Samana looked up.

Xuanwu appeared right above the Sand and Rain Allied Forces camp.

"Little ghost, do you still think we are not prepared?"

The two times before that Konoha launched a large-scale attack on the camp, Xuanwu flew in the air and set fire everywhere, treating the Sand and Rain coalition as barbecue. How could they allow this guy to act recklessly for the third time?

The four lookouts lit up simultaneously, and a barrier covered the entire camp.

Shamon had originally planned to wait until the Konoha ninjas attacked before releasing it, so that they would bump into each other and bleed. However, in order to prevent the Xuanwu from causing damage in the sky, he had to use it first.

"It looks like you are well prepared."

The eight-fold mirror in Xuanwu's right eye has seen the entire barrier clearly. "The barrier is a purely defensive type. When one part is attacked, the force will be immediately dispersed to the entire barrier. It also specially strengthens the fire resistance attribute, and..."

Xuanwu, who withstood dozens of kunai but remained unharmed, said: "Moreover, the inside can attack outwards, while the outside cannot hit the inside. I have to say, it's pretty powerful, but..."

He put his hands together and spat out a mouthful of phlegm.

"Fire escape, great fire extinguishing arrow",

The flames were in the center of the dome.

The monk sneered and said, "It's just a flame, nothing to be afraid of. I've been escaped by a little loach like you several times, and I, the Wind Shadow, am very embarrassed."

He took out a scroll and unsealed it, and five puppets appeared. But before he could take any action, the next second, the orange-red flame gradually turned into blue, and cracks appeared on the burned parts.

"How can it be!"

Under Shamon's shocked gaze, a big hole was burned through the barrier that he was so proud of.

The Xuanwu handprint changes again.

"Fire escape, dragon flame song technique",

The blue flames transformed into four fire dragons that quickly flew towards the lookout towers in all directions.

Although the three blue fire dragons were stopped, one of them still set fire to one of the lookout towers.

With one piece of the foundation missing, the barrier was immediately shattered.

Xuanwu shouted at Shamen, "But your barrier is not resistant to high temperatures, and the curve in the center is not smooth enough, so the force is not dissipated quickly enough. Remember to upgrade it next time."

Shamen was so furious. How dare this little bitch mock him?

He controlled the five puppets with one hand and flew towards the Xuanwu in the sky.

"Oh, you're angry."

Xuanwu dodged flexibly in the air, "But what will make you even angrier is yet to come, old man!"

Hundreds of black spots suddenly appeared in the sky.

"what is that?"

"Air Ninja! It's Air Ninja! Pay attention to air defense!"

What is the air force and what is the ninja? That is the Konoha air force that has finally formed combat effectiveness after three months of hard training!

They swooped down and dropped one heavy bomb after another produced in the Sky Ninja Village, and the entire camp of the Sand and Rain Coalition was immediately covered in flames.

After throwing the bombs, Konoha's air force took out kunai launchers and fired kunai with detonating tags on them one after another.

Xuanwu made a cross seal,

"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique"

Hundreds of Xuanbu appeared and accompanied Konoha's air force. Attacking the Sand Ninja was secondary. In fact, the main purpose was to help these idiots who were high on flying block attacks from the ground.
