Just as Aoba and Itachi mercilessly slaughtered the Kumogakure ninja, Shikaku had also completed his final deployment. He immediately blew the horn of a counter-attack!
Konoha's main force quickly gathered together and began to attack Kumogakure.
After receiving the news from the investigation class, Kumogakure did not wait for death. They also gathered their army to prepare for the attack on Konoha.
This was not the first time the two sides had engaged in such a large-scale war. In the beginning, Kumogakure had taken the lead, and his strength was superior. However, after more than a year of the war, their advantage had been lost. Otherwise, they would not have been rushed here.
However, neither side had the strength to defeat the other in one go. They could only slowly drag it out.
Although the losses made Kumogakure impetuous and his morale greatly reduced, no one believed that they would lose.
….
On a plain, thousands of Kumogakure Ninjas and thousands of Konoha Ninjas looked at each other from a distance of nearly a hundred meters.
A murderous aura quickly spread out.
No one spoke, only a burst of silence.
Perhaps many people would die here after today, but this was not a reason to retreat!
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Konoha's close-combat troops took the lead in the attack, and Kumogakure was not to be outdone.
For the ninjas on both sides, the distance of a hundred meters disappeared in the blink of an eye.
It could be seen that in the first wave of confrontation between the two sides, Kumogakure, who was obviously better at close combat, had the advantage.
As soon as the battle began, dozens of Konoha's men were killed.
However, when Akamichi Choza led his clansmen to attack, the disadvantage was immediately suppressed.
"Super · Flesh Bullet Chariot!"
Kumogakure's formation immediately became a mess, and a large number of ninjas were crushed into meat paste, unable to be pulled down.
However, after fighting so many times, both sides already had some understanding of their own methods.
Therefore, when the people of Akamichi's clan attacked, Kumogakure immediately began to change the formation. A dozen or so Ninjutsu with high-speed movement power held him down, and then the rest of the ninjas quickly scattered and retreated and then began to throw a large number of Kunai with the Explosion Talisman as a counterattack!
At this time, the giant of Akamichi's clan made them become targets, and the already not flexible body, under the control of Kumogakure and Jonin, was even more difficult to make an effective counterattack.
However, in the blink of an eye, one of his clansmen painfully canceled the super multiplier technique. Obviously, he was heavily injured.
But without the addition of the super multiplier technique, the threat of his attack was greatly reduced. At least, he could no longer destroy the formation of Kumogakure.
But at this moment, Mikawa also commanded the Ninjutsu unit to launch a precise attack.
"Fire Escape, release!"
"Fire Escape · Art of Great Flame "
Although it was only C-grade ninjutsu, when it was released at the same time by hundreds of people, it was incomparably shocking!
And this was only the beginning.
"Wind Release, release!"
"Wind Release·Great Breakthrough!"
Although the number of people who released Wind Release was not as many as Fire Escape just now, under the power of fire and wind, the two C-grade ninjutsu immediately merged together to form a more powerful combination of ninjutsu!
Although Kumogakure reacted very quickly and used Water Escape ninjutsu to stop it, it was very clear that there were not many people who possessed water attribute chakra among Kumogakure Ninjas, and their power was not comparable to Konoha's combination ninjutsu.
Therefore, the rear of Kumogakure immediately suffered a lot of pain, and a lot of screams came out!
Especially when Fire Escape and Water Escape collided, the hot steam quickly rose up, causing many people to fall to the ground in pain.
"Continue! Next group!"
Under the command of Mikawa, the Ninjutsu unit immediately released a huge amount of power!
...
With the long-range support of the Ninjutsu unit, the Akamichi clan, which attracted a lot of firepowers, temporarily retreated. Then, Inuzuka Clan and Hyuga clan began to lead the close-combat unit to counterattack!
"Fang!"
"Gentle Fist· sixty-four palms of Eight Trigrams!"
"Heavenly Reversal!"
...
At the same time, Aburame Clan, who was at the rear, also began to release a large number of parasites to harass and kill enemies.
Under layers of protection, they did not need to worry about their own safety and could do whatever they wanted.
In addition, under the sneak attacks of Yamanaka's clan from time to time, Kumogakure still had to worry about his own people, who could be controlled by the enemy at any time. For a moment, the situation was in chaos!
However, at this time, Kumogakure's counterattack also came. A large number of Kumogakure Ninjas began to use their instantaneous explosive speed to attack the formation of Konoha.
Then, the Ninjutsu unit on Kumogakure's side also gave great damage to Konoha's side. After all, in terms of pure destructive power, lightning was stronger.
"Lightning Release: · Lightning Light Pillar!"
"Lightning Release: · Path of Light"
For a moment, the sounds of slashing, explosions, and wails weaved into an epic movement.
Perhaps the companion who was still fighting alongside you a second ago would be eternally slumbering here the next second.
Every minute, every second, someone would die. The tragic scene was shocking!
Just as Konoha and Kumogakure dispatched all their main forces to fight, Aoba and Itachi, who had received a special mission, were trying to sneak into Kumogakure's base camp.
Because they had already experienced success once, even if they lacked Gekkou Hayate this time, they still advanced very firmly.
It didn't matter if they didn't have the Transparent Escape technique. They still had Byakugan from Hyuga's clan!
The former was more suitable for infiltration, while the latter was more suitable for scouting the enemy's movements.
If not for the fact that their mission this time was very important, Shikaku wouldn't have given him the precious talents that were already scarce, to begin with.
And there were really not many geniuses like Aoba and Itachi who were so young that they revealed themselves so quickly.
Shikaku even treated them as another Kakashi, or else he wouldn't have entrusted them with such an important task.
Of course, it was also a big reason that no one could use it.
"Byakugan!"
"There is an enemy hiding behind the tree 180 meters ahead. There are two people at the right and rear."
"Attack!"
With Byakugan's foresight, Aoba and Itachi led the team through Kumogakure's layers of defense.
After all, to fight with Konoha's main force, even Kumogakure did not dare to be careless. At this time, their internal forces must be empty, and their defense power is much weaker than before.
However, the long-term war also made Kumogakure feel like an arrow at the end of its flight.
And what Aoba and the others wanted to do was to seize this opportunity, making Kumogakure feel even more uncomfortable.
After smoothly approaching Kumogakure's main camp, Aoba took out the map he had prepared beforehand, and some of the things marked on it were all exchanged with their lives last time.
Even if Kumogakure's people were vigilant, it was impossible to change all the arrangements in such a short period of time.
And there was no need for that!
"It is very likely that the logistics of the other party has shifted their position. We only have one chance to make a move. Should we proceed according to the original plan or take the risk to investigate?"
Aoba looked at Itachi with some uncertainty.
