Chapter 258 General Attack!

Most ninjas will experience a rapid decline in both mental and physical strength as they age.

This was the case with Hanzo in the past, and also with the third generation Sarutobi.

They are very strong when they are young, but weak when they are old.

However, there are exceptions.

Like Ohnoki who relies on Dust Release to deal damage, and Chiyo who relies on puppets to deal damage... and so on.

Even with age, their strength does not decline much.

Add to that the rich experience accumulated over decades, and the powerful puppets of the [Jinmatsu Ten].

Chiyo's overall strength is considered to be in the upper middle level among the Kage-level.

At least much stronger than the younger Fifth Generation Mizukage Mei Terumi.

However.

Although Chiyo and the Jinmatsu Ten are very strong, she is even more abnormal in fighting the Five Paths of Pain.

Even if it is not the strongest Heavenly Path, the other five paths combined are no weaker than Jiraiya in Sage Mode.

It is highly likely that Chiyo alone will not be able to win.

And after the battle, Chiyo herself also deeply experienced it.

The powerful Shura Path whose whole body has been transformed into a machine, the Animal Path that can summon various powerful summoned beasts, the Hungry Ghost Path that can absorb all ninjutsu attacks, and the Human Path that can extract souls, and even the Hell Path that can revive teammates;

Melee, long-range, tank, magician, nurse...

Everything is available.

This lineup, let alone fighting Chiyo.

Even fighting the Five Kage, it may not be defeated; if Tendo Pain is added, I am afraid there is still a considerable chance of winning!

Fortunately, Tendo Pain is not here, otherwise [Shinra Tensei] is a natural counter to puppeteers.

Just two rounds of impact will probably destroy most of Chiyo's puppets...

But although Pain's Five Paths are strong.

But Chiyo's strategy is different.

In this battle, she does not seek to defeat Pain's Five Paths, but only to delay the opponent for a while.

Just buy time for the counterattack of the Rock Ninja captives and the general attack of the Ninja Alliance.

The Ten Kinmatsu, ten puppets close to the Kage level, can still hold out for a while under Chiyo's full defense.

Besides, there is a decent Akatsuki and two Ōnoki clones nearby.

Although they can't beat the Five Paths of Pain, they can still deal with some of the Rain Ninja minions and interfere with the Five Paths of Pain.

Chiyo is confident that she can hold out for at least ten minutes.

If during this period, the opponent has support:

Or the Ninja Alliance decides to stay put and watch them die.

Then there is nothing we can do.

…

On the other side, outside the Hidden Rock Village.

On the Ninja Alliance side, a large group of people are still staring blankly.

In the sky.

The fierce battle between Deidara and the other four is almost impossible for the other ninjas to intervene.

They are the only four who can fly.

If the others rush forward with their heads held high, it will be like seeking death if they have no place to gain support in the air.

This makes Raikage Ai more and more anxious, and he wants to join the battlefield several times.

But Xiaodi and Sasori didn't give him a chance at all, and kept the battlefield in the air.

The damned second generation of Tu and the third generation of Feng had already made their scalps numb and exhausted.

If there was another fourth generation of Raikage who was good at killing people in seconds, they would almost certainly lose.

How could they give the Raikage a chance to cut in?

This caused the ninja coalition forces below to stare and worry; as if they were not here to fight, but to watch a show.

However.

With the return of the clockwork bird released by Chiyo, the information in the Hidden Rock Village was transmitted back to the ninja coalition forces.

The situation changed drastically.

Raikage Ai immediately found Terumi Mei and Orochimaru and began to discuss the general attack.

This battle almost made him suffocate.

"Lord Kazekage and his team not only rescued the hostages, but also found the hiding place of the enemy leader, and even rescued thousands of rock ninjas?"

"Isn't this... a little too lucky?"

"Is there a trick?"

After reading the intelligence, Mei Terumi couldn't help but be full of concerns.

Isn't this too coincidental?

Although Ohnoki was seriously injured and the situation was not optimistic.

But overall, Chiyo and his team have achieved remarkable results!

Almost single-handedly, they created a great chance of winning for the entire coalition!

The premise is that all this information is true.

"Who cares? We'll know when we get in."

"I've said it before, there's no need to engage in any encirclement tactics. Just launch a general attack and rush in to kill all the enemies!"

Raikage Ai, who was full of anger, didn't bother to care whether the intelligence was true or false.

In his eyes, it would be better to launch a general attack earlier than to dawdle here.

If the general attack was launched earlier, they wouldn't have been tortured by Deidara's clay bomb for so long, and a large number of ninjas would have been sacrificed in vain.

"This..."

"Hokage, what do you think?"

Mei Terumi still had some concerns. So she looked at Orochimaru and asked for his opinion.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and scanned the information sent back by Chiyo again.

He felt that the information sent by Chiyo should be true, but the facts seen by Chiyo were not necessarily the truth.

Orochimaru knew the members of Akatsuki very well.

In his opinion, the infiltration operation was so reasonable and smooth, which was unreasonable in itself.

There is a high probability that there are some traps and conspiracies hidden in it!

But what does it matter?

Directly launch a general attack, let both sides go to war, and further increase casualties.

This was one of Orochimaru's goals.

What's more, the more intense the battle is.

The more powerful people die, the more abundant the Impure World Army on his side will be.

The more you fight, the greater the advantage, so what are you afraid of?

"I agree with Raikage. Our strength is our strength. There is no harm in trying to launch a general attack."

"Even if there are any traps, it's impossible for the other side to destroy the entire coalition army at once."

"The worst case scenario is to retreat and regroup again."

"But if the intelligence is true, this is a good opportunity to cooperate inside and outside to completely annihilate the enemy!"

Orochimaru took the initiative to encourage him.

Kakashi next to him seemed to have some objections, but he still held it back, not daring to dismantle his own Hokage.

"Okay! The Hokage actually agrees with me."

"Mizukage-dono, do you have any more questions?"

Raikage Ai admired Orochimaru more and more, secretly sighing that he never expected that this seemingly gloomy snake could be so aggressive and bold.

It suits my taste very well!

Although Terumi Mei still had some concerns about this, she basically agreed with Orochimaru's statement.

There are tens of thousands of ninja coalition forces, fighting against more than a thousand people of the Akatsuki organization.

The advantage is indeed that I can accept a certain degree of risk-taking and attrition.

…

And just then.

The ninjas responsible for monitoring Iwagakure Village on the front line suddenly received news.

It was said that large-scale riots and fighting seemed to have broken out inside Iwagakure Village.

A large part of the rain ninjas responsible for the defense were transferred back to the village to suppress them.

"Hahaha! It's true!"

"That old lady Kazekage actually rescued the Iwa nin inside."

"very good!"

"What a great opportunity!"

"Immediately send an order to the entire army to launch a general attack on Yanyin Village!"

As the commander of the coalition forces, Raikage was very excited.

With a wave of his hand, he immediately ordered a general attack.

At the same time, he turned to Orochimaru and Terumi Mei and said:

"Hokage, Mizukage, the overall offensive command of the coalition forces will be left to you!"

"I'll take the first step."

"Mabuyi, prepare for the divine gift!"

"The target is the Tsuchikage Building. I'll kill the opponent's leader first!"

…
