Chapter 337 337 What a bunch of cowards

Uchiha Izuna's almost threatening declaration was promoted by ANBU and soon spread throughout the ninja world.

Under Kumogakure's hint, Sunagakure, who had been secretly sending spies into the Land of Fire to conduct investigations, instantly became more at ease.

They suspected that Uchiha Izuna's words were deliberately told to them.

The second generation Kazekage Samana was also under tremendous pressure for this.

To be honest, in the past few years, huge sums of money had to be paid to Konoha every year, which has made the conditions of Sunagakure Village very difficult in all aspects.

After the second-generation Kazekage took office, he was not busy promoting his power like other newly appointed Kages.

Instead, he ordered the whole village to be frugal and do their best to save food.

Such behavior made the people of Sunagakure, whose lives were already very simple, criticize the newly ascended second-generation Kazekage.

Samana originally wanted to take advantage of the battle between Konoha and Kumogakure to make a profit.

While improving the poverty crisis of Sunagakure, he can also relatively stabilize his political position in Sunagakure.

But what Uchiha Izuna said made him flinch.

After all, in the first ninja war, the scene of Uchiha Izuna fighting against the two ninja villages of Iwagakure and Sunagakure with nearly one person was still vivid in his mind.

Move the target of attack.

After struggling for nearly half a month, the Second Kazekage and the senior management of Sunagakure came up with a new decision.

The stabbing thing still needs to be done.

But the target of this knife must be moved away from Konoha.

Now Amegakure and Iwagakure are busy fighting for two years, and they are even less able to take action than Konoha.

As the saying goes, pick the weak persimmon, since Konoha is not easy to offend, then it doesn't matter if you change it, right?

The key is Iwagakure or Amegakure, which one should I choose?

If you want to pick a softer persimmon, of course it is Yugakure.

But Amegakure, like Sunagakure, is also a pauper. Although they are easier to fight, if the war resources they plunder are not enough, then fighting becomes meaningless.

On the contrary, Iwagakure is the one with the strongest economic strength among the five major countries besides Konoha. Although its military capabilities are stronger, Sunagakure is also more eager to bite a piece of meat from them.

After some thinking, the second generation Kazekage slapped the table and shouted: "Come here!"

Whoosh!

Soon, a Sunagakure ANBU ninja wearing a Rakshasa Ghostface mask appeared, "Master Kazekage, what are your orders?"

The second-generation Kazekage ordered: "You Anbu will immediately go to the battle site of Amegakure Iwagakure to investigate. I want you to bring me the status of their fighting as quickly as possible."

"yes!"

Sunagakure Anbu bowed his head in response and disappeared from the spot.

The second-generation Kazekage put his hands behind his back and turned his head to look through the window at the sandy sky of Sunagakure Village. "The best situation is that Amagakure can defeat Iwagakure. In this way, I, Sunagakure, will have a chance... But Can you do it? Yuyin..."

…

…

The war between ninjas is also an intelligence war.

After such a long time, there was no news of Sunagakure launching troops against Konoha, so it was naturally known to Kumogakure.

The war situation at this time is not optimistic for Kumogakure.

Even if Uchiha Izuna did not arrive at the front line in person.

However, Konoha's many powerful ninjas, plus the combined armies of Tsukigakure and Yugakure villages, have already put unprecedented pressure on Kumogakure.

In single combat, Konoha's army could not defeat the Third Raikage.

But don’t forget, this is war, not a fight alone.

No matter how strong the Third Raikage was individually, he could not help but retreat continuously under the combination of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Sarutobi Sasuke, Hinata Chisato and many other Kage-level masters.

In the end, they managed to hold on to the fortress by relying on the dangerous terrain of the Land of Thunder.

But the opponent's Konoha army finally reached the territory of the Kingdom of Thunder.

Originally, Kumogakure's plan was to instigate Sunagakure to attack Konoha from behind while they were at war with Konoha, causing Konoha to be attacked from both sides.

But unexpectedly, Uchiha Izuna's words made the second generation Kazekage dare not attack again.

The third generation Raikage was so angry that he flew into a rage and cursed the second generation Kazekage for being a coward.

What a great opportunity is this?

If it were him, he would definitely send troops without hesitation, but this guy actually cowered and didn't dare to take action.

But there is nothing you can do if you stay at home and scold me.

The Third Raikage must come up with new ways to escape from the danger at hand.

Fortunately, because Konoha has never had a better way to break through the natural barrier protection of Kumogakure's high latitudes, it has not organized the next attack in a short period of time.

"Wanting a war of attrition?"

As the commander-in-chief of Konoha's front line, Hinata Chisato quickly understood Kumogakure's thoughts.

To be precise, this is the only way Kumogakure can go now.

Although Konoha can be said to have reached Kumogakure's doorstep.

But if it is more important than the rear baggage transportation, the current main battlefield is already quite far away from Konoha in the Land of Fire.

It would take at least eight days for the food to be transported by ordinary methods.

As for Kumogakure, it only takes less than two days.

They even have a magical teleportation technique - the technique of heavenly delivery.

Supplies can be sent to the front line in an instant.

In the first ninja war, Konoha suffered a big loss because of this technique.

But fortunately, there are no ninjas with abnormal bodies like Jin Jiao Gin Jiao.

The Third Raikage could barely be counted as one, but as the leader of a village, he would never act alone rashly.

Seeing the weakness of the Konoha army in this regard, Hinata Chisato immediately ordered to strengthen the protection of the logistics transportation lines.

An additional two thousand people were dispatched to protect the logistics transportation lines.

"It's a stalemate..."

Izuna, who was in Konoha Village, quickly learned the situation from the front line.

The terrain of Yunyin is really difficult to deal with. If he doesn't take action personally, this stalemate will last for at least half a year.

"On the other side, Xiao's situation is..."

Izuna thought, and opened another scroll sent by the ANBU, which recorded the battle between Iwagakure and Amegakure.

…

Today's Iwagakure Amegakure battlefield.

Iwagakure is led by Onoki Two Scales, the grandson of the first Tsuchikage Ishikawa, the second generation Tsuchikage Mu no Yu, the head of the Onoki family.

Now over thirty, he has become completely proficient in the Dust Release taught to him by the Second Tsuchikage.

In the early stages of the war, they were basically invincible.

Until...a group of mysterious people appeared, wearing black and red cloud trench coats!

"Chen Escape·Original Realm Peeling Technique!!!"

On the heavy rain-soaked Iwagakure Aigakure battlefield, Onoki, who is still short but relatively normal in height, is floating in the air. The fingers of his hands form a diamond shape, from which he releases a shining pure white flash, killing all the enemies under attack. Make dust.

"Immortal Technique·Fire Escape·Great Fire Extinguishment!!!"

At this moment, a completely different high-level fire escape ninjutsu attacked Ohnoki Liangsheng from the side.
