Chapter 593 Prelude to the Final Battle
Seeing that one of their companions had died tragically in such a short time, the remaining Mist Village jonins felt sad, so they stopped thinking about entanglement and planned to break out as soon as possible.
However, if they wanted to leave, it would depend on whether Konoha would agree.
Thanks to the latecomer advantage, Nara Kiyoshi's arrangement was more targeted. Although it was not perfect because of the short preparation time, it eventually formed a certain restraint situation.
Therefore, the Mist Village jonins in the field were very uncomfortable to fight, and they tried to escape several times, but failed.
Qingming seized this opportunity and kept attacking. According to the information he and his shadow clone had just collected, he launched a sneak attack on the Mist Village jonins in the field.
And his more comprehensive ability also added a bit of help to his actions.
······
Time passed by.
Just when the third Mist Village jonin fell, the Mist Village commander finally received the news and immediately began to prepare for rescue.
However, Nara Kiyoshi had already thought of this.
He directly ordered the frontline troops to launch a full-scale attack and never allow any of the Kirigakure jonin on the battlefield to leave.
As a result, the Kirigakure commander had no personnel available for a while.
The Kirigakure commander shuddered at the thought of the terrible consequences of all the jonin falling.
After some hesitation, he decided to abandon the car to save the king, and directly ordered the middle and lower ninjas on the battlefield near Qingming and others to move closer to the central battlefield.
He planned to use the lives of these middle and lower ninjas to buy some chances of survival for the jonins on the field.
Not only that, he also sent the last reserve troops around him to the battlefield to support the Kirigakure jonins.
Although Konoha mobilized more jonins because of the backhand, it was not much more than the Kirigakure jonins who surrounded Qingming.
It's not that Nara Qiguang was unwilling to mobilize more people, but there were only so many.
In order to suppress Kirigakure, he had even mobilized the reserve forces in advance.
It's not unreasonable that the two sides can stalemate for so long on this battlefield.
At least, in terms of high-end combat power, the gap is not very large.
Of course, this gap is not big, under the premise that Namikaze Minato and Qingming did not fight with all their strength.
If the two of them burst out with all their strength, the Mist Ninja in Aburatsu Port would be 100% unstoppable.
However, both Namikaze Minato and Qingming had their own concerns, so they did not plan to fight with all their strength.
Even so, in this contest between the jonin, Konoha still had an absolute advantage with the two of them.
The death of the Mist Hidden Ninjas continued.
At the beginning, it was only some special jonins with weaker strength, but as the battle progressed, some real jonins began to die.
However, as they delayed, a turning point also came.
First, those desperate Mist Hidden Ninjas, although they could not threaten Qingming and others, they could not withstand the large number of people.
With their interference, those Mist Hidden Ninjas can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Then, after waiting for a while, the reserve team belonging to the Mist Hidden Ninja also rushed over, and the ninjas in it were all elite.
Although only a part of them are jonin, the remaining chunins also have good strength, and they can play auxiliary even in the jonin battlefield.
In this way, the battle situation changed from a one-sided "massacre" to a large melee with equal strength.
Moreover, as more and more people joined the two sides, there was a trend of evolving into a decisive battle.
Facts have proved that Qingming's premonition was not wrong.
This encirclement and counter-encirclement caused by him eventually turned into a small decisive battle on this battlefield.
Of course, it can also be called the prelude to the decisive battle.
At this time, fighting was taking place everywhere near Yujin Port. The ninjas on both sides were already killing each other. Even if the sun set, neither side chose to retreat.
Or, they dared not retreat.
In this situation, it depends on who can't hold on first. Once one side chooses to retreat first, it will inevitably be ruthlessly hunted down by the other side.
At this time, the sacrifice is the greatest.
Not only because the hunted side is difficult to defend, but also because the wounded cannot be transported in time.
In this way, the casualties must be very large.
On the contrary, the winning side can treat the wounded calmly.
And with the medical ninjutsu mastered by the ninja world, as long as the injury is not too serious, there is basically a possibility of recovery.
Such an increase and decrease will inevitably make both sides dare not retreat lightly, unless both sides are exhausted.
At this time, if either side retreats, the other side will not dare to pursue rashly, and will not have the energy to pursue.
This is the best time to cease fire.
And now, the ninjas of Konoha and Kirigakure are moving towards this stage.
······
In a flash, several hours have passed.
Time has come to the middle of the night.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse.
After fighting for a whole day and half a night, Nara Qiguang and Kirigakure finally issued an order to retreat.
The ninjas on both sides dragged their own wounded, holding kunai, carefully watching each other, and began to leave the battlefield one after another.
And this process will not be too peaceful after all.
From time to time, you can hear the explosions and fighting sounds again on the battlefield.
Obviously, not everyone is so rational, and not every battlefield can be separated normally.
In the end, this process took nearly two hours.
It was not until the second half of the night that the Konoha ninja and the Kirigakure ninja were completely separated.
At this time, the battlefield was filled with the smell of blood, which made people sick.
At a high point, Qingming stood on a tree branch, overlooking the entire battlefield, with a dim gaze, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Time passed quietly.
At a certain moment, a figure appeared behind him.
Qingming did not move, and heard the man say: "Qingming Jonin, Captain Nara asked you to go over."
Hearing this, Qingming turned around and looked at the person who came.
It was none other than a messenger Chunin under Nara Qiguang.
Qingming did not ask the other party Nara Qiguang what he wanted. After nodding, he performed the "Wind Style·Wind Wings", flew into the sky, and flew towards the direction of the headquarters.
A few minutes later.
Qingming walked out of the headquarters.
Then he turned around and walked towards the hospital.
Nara Qiguang had nothing to do with him, just hoping that he could help treat some seriously injured people.
Logically, he should not have any more tasks today.
After all, he was already tired enough today. First, he risked his life to act as bait, then he prevented the Kirigakure jonin from breaking through, and finally he killed powerful enemies in the melee.
In this case, let alone giving him a few days off, at least he should be allowed to have a good rest.
But there was no way. Today's unexpected battle caused a surge in the number of wounded, and the medical ninjas in the camp were no longer enough.
Nara Qiguang had no choice but to find him.
Qingming did not refuse.
After all, he had thought about using practical exercises to quickly improve his proficiency in the 'Chakra Scalpel' and 'Fine Injury Extraction Technique' before, but he never had the chance.
Now, he has the opportunity, and he will naturally not miss it.
As for fatigue
Compared with upgrading, some mental fatigue is nothing!
