Chapter 223: Digging a River Channel

"Minato!"

Squeezing the body again and bursting out chakra to restore the lava giant, Jiraiya shouted to his disciple.

I can only use that trick.

After hesitating for a moment, Namikaze Minato used the Flying Thunder God Technique and left, raising his hands in the distance to quickly condense the Tailed Beast Jade.

As the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, and with the support of the Nine-Tails, he can naturally condense the Tailed Beast Jade.

This was only mastered not long ago. Although it can only be condensed when the Yin Seal Chakra explodes and enters the Nine-Tails Chakra mode, it is enough to become a trump card.

After a few seconds, a small tailed beast jade with a diameter of three meters condensed and took shape. Namikaze Minato brought it back with the flying thunder god technique, threw out the kunai and shot it at the huge Susanoo, carrying the tailed beast with him. Jade rushed forward.

Although this tailed beast jade was not large, it was enough to blow Susanoo over.

It exploded instantly before it even made contact, and he used the Flying Thunder God's technique to get out of the way.

"boom!"

A strong light burst out, and the violent impact staggered Susanoo.

At the same time, Jiraiya controlled the lava giant to attack.

The Uchiha Hikari in the Susanoo frowned slightly, and while controlling the Susanoo to resist the lava giant, he looked at Tamura Hao.

She now has to protect the thunder god clone to draw the thunder and lightning attack, and cannot use the flying thunder god technique, otherwise the connection with the thunder and lightning in the clouds will be disconnected, and it will take a long time to reconnect.

Tamura Hao controlled the Thor clone to take out a whistle and blow it, causing a sharp and harsh sound to spread.

The Yozuki Ai and others who were fighting around immediately abandoned their opponents and returned to Susanoo's side. At the same time, the thunder god's clone pulled the thunder and lightning in the thunder cloud to gather quickly, and finally turned into a thunder dragon and shot down, hitting Jiraiya and the lava giant in the middle. .

Being hit by such a violent and huge amount of lightning, the lava giant's upper body was instantly shattered.

If Feng Shuimon hadn't sensed something bad and used the Flying Thunder God to take Jiraiya away immediately, he would have been killed by this blow.

"Konoha ninja, I advise you to leave, otherwise such raids will happen frequently in the future."

After controlling the Thunder God clone and saying something, Uchiha Hikaru just used the Flying Thunder God Technique to take Susanoo and everyone away.

With the Little Ten-Tails supplying chakra through the Eight Thousand Spears, the Flying Thunder God Jutsu can be used however you want.

Of course, this cannot be shown. After teleporting away, Uchiha Hikaru lay on someone's back with a pale face, and wrapped his arms tightly around his neck to prevent him from being thrown off.

But Tamura Hao would not get used to this bad habit. He used brute force to break open the slender arms, and then carried them on his shoulders like a sack.

"Cheapskate!"

Uchiha Hikaru, who was forcibly changed his position, complained, but did not move, letting someone carry him and run like this.

Not to mention Tamura Hao and others who returned here, Jiraiya and others on the other side looked at the messy camp, with corpses and wounded everywhere, feeling extremely angry and hateful in their hearts.

"How many casualties are there?"

Sitting on a rock, Jiraiya asked about the casualties with a calm face.

They had been prepared for a sudden sneak attack by the four village coalition forces, and they also guessed that the opponent might use the flying thunder god technique, but they did not expect that the opponent had the means to summon such a large-scale thunder. This was the key to today's defeat.

The thunder falling from the sky prevented them from taking advantage of their numerical advantage, which was why they suffered heavy losses.

"It has been determined that two thousand people are dead, all chuunin. The injuries are not serious. They can recover after a period of rest."

Mitarashi Zixiao was silent for a moment and gave a rough number. The specific number is still being calculated, and now the focus is on treating the wounded.

"We will simply treat the injuries and then retreat to a place where there are no clouds."

Looking up at the gloomy sky, Jiraiya knew he couldn't stay here any longer.

That kind of attack method that fills the sky with thunder is too incomprehensible. Even if they build defense fortifications underground, it may not be effective. Coupled with the tailed beast jade launched, it is really impossible to resist it.

They must retreat, otherwise they will suffer heavy losses the next time the opponent attacks again.

"I'll make arrangements!"

Mitarai Zixiao nodded and left quickly to carry out the matter.

"What did you find again?"

Suddenly he saw his disciple walking quickly with Nara Shikaku, and Jiraiya's heart sank.

Did you find anything bad again?

"Jiraiya-sama, there must be a reason why they made a big circle and landed from the west. Today's raid is more like driving us back. There must be something wrong inside, and we must increase our efforts to detect it."

Nara Shikaku spoke quickly about his guess. Although it was just a guess, he was very sure that there was a big problem in it.

"Can you determine what the other party's conspiracy is?"

It is best to determine the other party's plan, otherwise it will be impossible to guard against and target it.

"There is too little information to analyze. I'm afraid we won't know until they reveal themselves."

Nara Shikaku was helpless, this was beyond his own knowledge accumulation, and he couldn't figure out what the other party wanted to do even if he tried hard.

"Minato, please work harder."

Jiraiya was still serious about this and looked at his disciple.

If the Kirigakure Village really had a conspiracy here, they would definitely take precautions and send others there just to die. Only Minato, who has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, can advance and retreat freely.

"Um!"

Namikaze Minato accepted the order and left quickly.

"Shikaku, you are very good, but your age limits your growth, so don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Looking at the boy whose eyes were bloodshot again, Jiraiya comforted him.

"I'll think about it some more."

Nodding, Nara Shikaku left holding the map he had been holding in his hand.

He knew that the secret must be hidden in this map, but he couldn't see what it was for a while.

After resting for a while, Jiraiya got up and found Hatake Sakumo.

"Sakumo-senpai, can the ninjutsu used by the God of Thunder to summon thunder be broken?"

That kind of thunder is too exaggerated. Whether it is the countless thunders in the first half or the thunder dragon at the end, it is extremely terrifying.

Since the beginning of the war, this is the first time that Thor has used this method.

Senior White Fang is the strongest lightning escape ninja in Konoha, so he should be able to understand that method better.

Hatake Sakumo thought for a moment and replied: "The principle is very simple, it is to integrate the thunder attribute chakra into the thunder clouds, thereby resonating with the thunder and lightning in the thunder clouds, and finally pulling it down.

Theoretically speaking, this ninjutsu can be interfered with by injecting another type of chakra into Thunder Cloud and suppressing the opponent's chakra.

But this requires an extremely large amount of chakra, and you have to practice the changes in the nature of the thunder attribute to the limit, and even transform into the special black and gold thunder escape. "

He knew the principle of this ninjutsu, but he couldn't decipher it. Even if he knew it, it would be useless.

When it comes to the use of Thunder Release, Yunyin Village is the strongest in the ninja world.

My strongest skill is swordsmanship, followed by thunder escape, which is a bit worse than others.

Lei Dun himself only cultivated the nature change to the limit, but did not break through the limit and transformed into the third generation of Raikage, the boy, and the black thunder and golden thunder like Thor.

It's impossible to avoid changes in nature, let alone chakra that covers such a wide range of thunder clouds.

"Thunder God, he really is the God of Thunder!"

Jiraiya scratched his head irritably, and now he understood the true meaning of the name of the God of Thunder. Such an existence was really like a god. It was no wonder that the Third Raikage would accept him as a disciple.

Seeing that there was no way to crack it, the Konoha ninja army could only withdraw more than 300 kilometers. They breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the area with rainy and cloudy weather, and then quickly established a camp for repairs.

After the Konoha ninja army retreated and established a camp, the four village coalition forces also officially started excavation of the river.

The fat and strong Sanqianyan nin who had been raised these days were divided into ten teams, each team of 300 people. They took turns using the underground river as the foundation to cut the earth and rocks, and condensed them into huge hollow balls that fell on the underground river. The impact and buoyancy of the water in the river pushed the hollow stone balls to roll rapidly into the sea.

Three thousand ninja troops started working in shifts, excavating non-stop 24 hours a day, at an astonishing speed. They excavated a ten-kilometer river channel in one day, and the width reached an astonishing 300 meters.

"At this rate, it will be completed in three or four months."

Looking at the excavated ten-kilometer river channel, Goju Yagura was very excited.

As long as this river channel is successfully excavated, they can use it as a foundation to build a defense line, resist the attacks of Konoha and the Country of Fire, and completely occupy this place.

This is his own merit, and no one can say anything about succeeding the Mizukage in the future.

You can even start a war to capture the island countries in the sea behind. The teacher is old and does not have enough energy to support such a grand war, so naturally he has to do it himself.

With so many feats under his belt, he will surely become the greatest Mizukage of all time.

Of course, he did not get carried away and knew very well that the basis of these was to defeat Konoha and even destroy it.

Otherwise, the presence of Konoha will definitely interfere with their capture of the southern seas.

"Didn't you induce Namatdai to escape death before?"

Tongcao Yebaiman walked up to Tamura Hao and asked, paying more attention to Matt Dai. After knowing that Matt Dai was sent to this front, he knew that the other party was their biggest threat.

"No."

Tamura Hao shook his head slightly. He had seen Matt Dai being persuaded and stopped by Nara Shikaku before, but he did not interfere or stimulate.

At that time, Materdai was really not suitable for starting a deadly battle at the door of death.

All of them knew very well that the Four Village Alliance was only a cooperation of interests and would eventually become enemies.

Not to mention that their Cloud Hidden Village also has plans to unify the great cause. What they most want to see is that Konoha and the other three major ninja villages will suffer losses, rather than simply destroying Konoha.

Matt Dai is a big trump card in Konoha, it would be a pity to die for no reason.

"That's when the real test begins."

Turning his head to look to the north, Tongcao Yebai knew that Konoha would soon send people to attack.

Neither Konoha nor the Fire Country Damingfu will tolerate the loss of this peninsula, nor will they allow the third line of defense to get out of control.

Once this peninsula is captured by their Kirigakure Village, the nature of the Ninja World War will completely change and turn into a war of annihilation against Konoha and the Country of Fire.

The power that Konoha will explode next will definitely be terrifying, and they must resist it, otherwise it will be difficult to carry out the strategy here.

"Have arrangements been made for the entrance to the secret passage?"

Tamura Hao asked, that waterway is crucial and cannot be lost.

"There are ninjas from the Moshigaki clan in charge, and we have dug hundreds of waterway entrances around the area. As long as there is one, the water flow will not stop."

The Tongcao Yebai people replied that they had made perfect arrangements in this regard.

The ninjas of the Mikigaki family have a special body structure and can survive in the water for a long time. No one can be their opponent in the water.

Not to mention that the Inakisaki family also has a psychic contract with the shark swarm and can summon a large number of shark swarms, which is enough to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

After communicating for a while, Tongcaoyebaiten walked over to Gouju Yagura and whispered.

"I don't like this weather."

Ye Cang walked over holding an umbrella. It was raining continuously and the humidity in the air was very high, which affected his performance of Burning Escape.

And there are more heavy rains here, and the impact is greater.

"Konoha will definitely not choose to attack during a thunderstorm, and it will not affect your performance."

Tamura Hao squeezed under the young lady's umbrella, thinking that Ye Cang's worries were unnecessary.

After the last baptism of thunder purgatory, Konoha would only come to fight in a thunderstorm unless his brain was caught in the door.

"But there's too much moisture here."

Ye Cang is still not used to it.

"After the river channel here is successfully excavated, we will land from the Kingdom of Wind and then go north. Our Cloud Hidden Village is supporting you, but those Iwagakure ninja troops are just borrowing the road to pass by.

You can write to the Third Kazekage to apply and invite the three thousand rock hidden ninja troops to stay in the Kingdom of Sichuan to modify the river courses and divert most of the river water in the Kingdom of Sichuan to your Kingdom of Wind. Even if the wind cannot be transformed on a large scale, The country is enough to form countless oases. "

Tamura Hao said one thing and hoped that Sand Hidden Village could help transform the Kingdom of Wind in advance, so that they can better carry out follow-up work after unifying the ninja world in the future.

Otherwise, you will have to start from scratch, which is a waste of time.

"Is this what you want to talk to Luo Sha?"

Ye Cang was stunned for a moment and then reacted immediately.

This is indeed a good thing. Their Sunagakure Village did redirect the river from the Country of Kawa to the Country of Wind, but not much could be transformed.

The current idea is to transform the land close to Kawa no Kuni into an oasis.

But if there were this group of Iwagakure Ninja Army, it would not be impossible to change the course of the entire River Country, and the number of oases that could be created would increase tenfold and a hundredfold.

In terms of earth escape ninjutsu, especially the application of large-scale earth escape, Iwagakure Village is the strongest in the ninja world, and their Sunagakure Village is far behind.

"This is Master Tutai's suggestion. Luo Shajun is not here, so I have to do something for Sister Yecang."

"It's too far to think about this. Let's wait until this battle is over."

Ye Cang understood that this proposal must be made, but the top priority now was to win the next war, and Konoha would never let them wait too long.

What they thought here was correct. After receiving the information, Konoha and the Fire Country Daimingfu were all anxious. They issued death orders to come over and start a war immediately, sabotaging the river excavation plan of the four village coalition forces at all costs.

"They want to dig out a river that is more than 600 kilometers and 300 meters wide?"

At the frontline camp, everyone who heard the news was stunned. They really didn't expect such an unexpected operation. This was truly changing the world.

"A three-hundred-meter-wide river is enough to form an absolute barrier, which can more than double the combat power of Kirigakure ninjas. Once the excavation of the river is completed, we will not be able to break through it."

Nara Shikaku smiled bitterly with bloodshot eyes. He finally understood what Kirigakure Village was going to do. It was crazier and bolder than he thought. It could be said to be an epoch-making strategy and tactic.

The most they can do here is build a battle line based on their geographical advantages, but Wuyin Village directly wants to dig a river that is at least 600 kilometers long, with a width of more than 300 meters.

The characteristics of the ninjas of Kirigakure Village are enough to establish an impenetrable defense line based on the river.

This is equivalent to dividing that country. I really don’t understand how Kirigakure Village thought of this.

"This doesn't look like Kirigakure Village's style. Could it be the fault of Kirigakure Village again?"

Yuhi Zhenhong feels that this may have something to do with the Raikage assistant in Yunyin Village. It is even possible that the other party had this idea during the war in the Kingdom of Whirlpool.

He was in awe of that kind of super wise man, and only that kind of person could come up with such unconstrained tactics and even strategies.

"The orders from the village and Daming Mansion should be on the way. No matter what, we have to fight."

Mitarashi Zixiao sighed, knowing that this battle would be very dangerous, and it was hard to say how many of them would survive.

But we have to fight, otherwise we won’t be able to fight in the future.

"Let's pick a better day to start the battle."

Jiraiya sighed, now he could only fight.

Even if all of them are killed, Kirigakure Village's plan cannot succeed, otherwise the nature of this ninja war will completely transform into the destruction and annexation of the Fire Country, and then it will really be all over.

"The initiative now lies with the four-village coalition. They have the advantage of location and time, and they also have advantages in numbers and strength. It is difficult to fight."

Yueguang Xuanfeng, who has always had a low sense of presence, is holding a long sword and is not very optimistic about this battle.

It's not that he's afraid of death, he just wants to win.

His child was about to be born, and he wanted to return alive to reunite with his wife and son.

Of course, if there is no other way, the only option is to die in battle.

"We can only attack by force. We can't come up with better tactics in a short time. The Kirigakure Village has been planning for so long and must have thought of all possibilities.

Not to mention that this strategy was probably the work of the Raikage Assistant from Hidden Cloud Village. Let’s not even think about defeating them in terms of tactics and strategy. A strong attack is the best option. "

Mitarashi Shixiao suggested a forceful attack, not thinking that it would be unrealistic to think of a strategy and tactics that could restrain the Raikage's assistant Todai.

"Use all available medical supplies to help the wounded recover as soon as possible."

Jiraiya agreed with this point of view, and a strong attack was the best way, and it had to be fast.

Everyone continued to discuss before they dispersed. When they left, Yueguang Xuanfeng and Hatake Sakumo walked together.

"If I die in battle, please take my knife back to my children."

Yueguang Xuanfeng is relatively pessimistic. This battle is destined to be an extremely tragic battle. Even if they can win, it will definitely be a tragic victory.

Although he is a shadow-level powerhouse, he is very likely to fall in a war of that level, not to mention that their side is still at a disadvantage.

"Forget about my sword, it was made by the village, and Kakashi also has his own sword."

Hatake Sakumo was also relatively pessimistic and prepared to die.

"Why did it become like this?"

After walking for a while, Yueguang Xuanfeng still couldn't help but ask, wondering how this ninja war could end like this.

Hatake Sakumo was silent about this. He knew a little about the reasons and understood that many problems lay in the conflicts and struggles within the village.

It's just that these things are too sensitive and cannot be said or discussed, otherwise there will only be endless troubles and even affect the wife, children and family.

Sometimes he was thinking that it would be good to develop in Yunyin Village.

At least according to the information I know, Kumogakure Village has really removed the ninja system, and there are far fewer conflicts and struggles within it. At the same time, since the rebellion in the first ninja war, Kumogakure Village has had the least number of rebel ninjas. of.

This is enough to prove that the atmosphere within Cloud Hidden Village is terrible in comparison to Konoha.
