Chapter 450: Luring the Enemy and Confidence

Time goes back to ten minutes ago.

On the other side.

After the Mist Ninjas walked out of the jungle, they were about to reach the valley.

Suddenly, a Mist Hidden Ninja stopped in the crowd and asked a Mist Hidden Ninja next to him: "How long has it been since the reconnaissance team in front sent back a message?"

Hearing this, the Mist Hidden Ninja was obviously stunned for a moment, and after looking at the time, he replied: "About seventeen minutes."

When he said this, his expression changed several times.

There is no other reason. According to the regulations, the team that goes out to explore must send back a message every quarter of an hour. If the situation is urgent, the frequency can be increased.

However, no matter what, the frequency cannot be reduced.

And now, two minutes have passed since the stipulated communication time.

Excluding the low-level mistake of remembering the wrong time, which is almost impossible to happen, there is only one reason why the message has not been received.

That is, they are in trouble.

And what trouble will they encounter in this situation?

In an instant, both the Mist Hidden Ninja who asked before and the Mist Hidden Ninja who answered, cast their eyes to the sky.

Faintly, the two saw a black dot that seemed to be circling above their heads.

But both knew that it was not a black dot, but a Konoha ninja known as the "ghost sword" - Uchiha Qingming.

They were monitored by the other side all the way.

Now, the reconnaissance team in front has lost contact, and the biggest possibility is that Konoha did it.

With this thought, the Kirigakure ninja who asked before, without any hesitation, immediately raised his right arm and shouted: "Everyone, stop moving forward!"

Hearing this, the entire Kirigakure team, everyone stopped their actions, and instinctively looked around and began to be alert.

Swish swish swish~

Several figures appeared in front of him, all of them were ninjas in the team.

They looked at Yasuda Akiju and said: "Captain Yasuda, what happened?"

Hearing this, Yasuda Akiju didn't waste any words and immediately told the reconnaissance team that they had not sent back any news.

Everyone present was not a fool, and immediately understood what he meant.

So, someone immediately suggested: "Why don't we send another team to investigate?"

However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by another person: "One team is too few. If you want to send, send more, so that they don't die one by one."

Others nodded in agreement.

Indeed, if the reconnaissance team that entered the valley before was dealt with by the Konoha ninja, then sending only one team over would be a bit insufficient.

But sending more is different.

In this way, even if they are still not the opponent of the possible enemy, they will be able to pass the information back with a high probability.

In this way, they can make plans early.

After hearing the suggestions of everyone, Yasuda Akiju agreed without thinking much.

So soon, six teams walked out of the Kirigakure team, two by two, and headed for the valley ahead in three directions, left, middle and right.

At first, everything was normal.

But not long after, an explosion was heard in the jungle on the right side of the canyon.

This sound was familiar to everyone, it was the sound of the detonating tag exploding.

Immediately, everyone in the Kirigakure team was in high spirits

...

At the same time.

On the other side, Sano Nobuhisa heard the explosion and immediately realized that it was almost impossible to ambush the opponent completely.

Fortunately, he did not expect this plan to succeed.

After all, this place is too suitable for ambush. As long as Kirigakure is a little more cautious, it is impossible to be caught.

Then why did he rush here in a hurry?

The answer is simple, that is to seize the geographical advantage.

Otherwise, how can this valley be a good place?

It is located on the only way from Feiyu Town to Heishi Town.

It won't take long to go straight, but if you take a detour, even with the speed of a ninja, it will take at least half an hour.

Indeed, Kirigakure did not rush into the encirclement rashly, which made their ambush effect unable to be maximized.

However, they can find a way to lure the opponent in.

This is not impossible.

You know, the Mist Ninjas of Feiyu Town are all out this time, divided into two groups, advancing side by side, obviously to attack them from both sides.

In this way, there must be strict requirements on the arrival time of the two teams.

And this means that the Mist Ninjas outside cannot take a detour, and at the same time cannot stay still for a long time.

Considering the apparent gap in strength between the two sides, Sano Nobuhisa estimated that even if these Mist Ninjas noticed that there was something wrong with this valley, they would bite the bullet and break in, at most they would be more careful.

And what he had to do was to give the other party such an opportunity.

With this thought, Sano Nobuhisa immediately asked Yamanaka Aoi beside him to send a message to other teams, asking them to act according to the plan.

The so-called plan is actually that most people hide and keep their troops still, leaving only a small number of people to deal with the Mist Ninjas' temptation, giving the other party the illusion that there are only one or two Konoha teams harassing here, thereby inducing the other party to come in here.

As expected, after discovering that the enemies in the valley were unable to defeat the reconnaissance team they had sent out, Akiku Yasuda simply sent out another wave of troops. After confirming that there were only a few teams of Konoha ninjas inside, he ordered the entire team to continue moving forward.

It's not that Yasuda Akiju didn't think that Konoha might be luring the enemy deep into the territory, but there was no extra time for him to investigate.

In addition, as the saying goes, in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is just a side trick.

Unfortunately, in Yasuda Akiju's view, their side is now the side with absolute strength.

They don't know the specific situation of the Black Stone Stronghold, but they are roughly clear about how many troops Konoha still has after the last battle.

In this way, even if they encounter an ambush, they can roughly estimate how many enemies they will encounter.

Even if they encounter the worst situation, most of the Konoha ninjas in the Black Stone Stronghold have come over, and with their combat power, they can hold out for one or two hours.

And this time is enough for the team army that set out from the sea to flatten the Black Stone Stronghold.

At that time, they will meet up with them and wipe out the attacking Konoha ninjas.

And if they don't encounter Konoha's ambush, it's just right, they don't have to pay attention to the harassment of those small teams in the forest and arrive at the destination on time.

At that time, if both sides launch an attack at the same time, they can still take down the Black Stone Stronghold.

It can be said that no matter what the situation is, they will not suffer.

It is for this reason that Yasuda Akiku will walk into the valley without hesitation.

And this is exactly what Sano Nobuhisa expects.

It can only be said that both sides are very confident.

However, Sano Nobuhisa's confidence comes from Qingming, a jonin whose strength far exceeds that of ordinary jonin, and Yasuda Akiku?

He doesn't seem to have considered a problem, that is, what if they can't hold on long enough?
