Chapter 569: I Have Never Fought Such a Rich Battle
At night, many ninja troop senior ninjas gathered in a makeshift tent.
There were no chairs inside the tent, only a large stone table made of earth escape, on which was placed a map of the Land of Grass and its surrounding areas.
Mu Yue and Jiraiya stood side by side on the north side of the table, while Minato Namikaze and Kakashi stood behind each of them, and the other senior ninjas stood in other directions of the large stone table.
"I believe everyone must have a lot of doubts in their hearts, why did they reunite so quickly after being separated, and why did Mu Yue appear here." Jiraiya said slowly.
Some senior ninjas nodded. Suddenly, there was such a big change, and it was difficult for them to sort out everything without intelligence.
"First of all, Mu Yue led the support troops to fight against Iwagakure with us." Jiraiya began to explain.
"Due to the critical situation on the front line, Mu Yue selected the elite from the support troops and arrived at the Grass Country as quickly as possible, so now the main force of the support troops has not arrived yet, and only the fifty elite ninjas of the vanguard troops have arrived."
A senior ninja showed joy on his face and couldn't help asking: "Lord Mu Yue, how many ninjas are there in the support troops?"
Since the elite troops have arrived, even if the main force is slow, it won't be too late. He can't wait to wash away the failure of the last time.
"Including the elite troops, there are a total of one thousand ninjas." Mu Yue answered seriously.
"Great! With the support troops, our troops are not worse than the Iwagakure troops. We will definitely not lose again this time!" The senior ninja who just asked the question looked even more excited.
This is a reinforcement of one thousand ninja troops. He has been fighting for so long, and this is the first time he has seen Konoha send such a strong reinforcement force at once.
It's not that Konoha is stingy, but Konoha doesn't have many troops among the many ninja villages.
From the establishment of Konoha to now, there are only more than 12,000 official ninjas in total.
Now the war in the ninja world has reached the third ninja world war. Due to the loss of war for many years and the natural death of ninjas, Konoha has very few active ninjas.
That is to say, the number of ninjas in each village is confidential. Otherwise, if there is a ranking of active ninjas, Konoha may be at the bottom of the five major ninja villages.
The other senior ninjas were also shocked. They felt that they had never fought such a rich war. There were actually a thousand reinforcements.
"As expected of Teacher Mu Yue, even cheating people is so good." Seeing that no one questioned the scene, Obito, who had been silent, praised Mu Yue in his heart.
White Zetsu, who was disguised as Hinata, also showed a surprised look and silently wrote down the information, ready to pass it on later.
"Before the dispersion, it was because of insufficient combat power, worried that the location would be discovered and then wiped out, but now that a thousand ninja troops have come to help, there is naturally no need to hide anymore." Jiraiya continued.
The senior ninjas nodded in approval. With the same number of ninja troops, they, Konoha, have never been afraid of others.
"Which place do you think is suitable for meeting with the support troops and serving as a temporary base camp?" Jiraiya began to brainstorm and collect ideas.
Each jonin carefully studied the map and expressed his own opinions.
After the combat meeting was over, Jiraiya reminded with a serious face:
"There may be spies in our army now, and the content of the meeting must not be leaked!"
When Jiraiya was assassinated by Sarutobi jonin before, no one saw it. In addition, Jiraiya deliberately concealed the news. At present, the ninja army does not know that the failure was caused by a spy.
The jonin in the tent all looked solemn.
"Don't be too nervous. Those who can be called to attend this meeting by me are all ninjas who can be trusted." Jiraiya said with a smile.
"As long as there is no accident, we will definitely turn defeat into victory this time."
The jonin looked at each other and felt that Jiraiya was right. Most of the jonin gathered here were ninjas of the ninja clan, or old jonins who worked hard and made great contributions. There could be no spies.
If nothing goes wrong with this group of people, the news will not be leaked, and there will be no accidents.
"I really want to cancel the transformation technique and let them see it, it will be very interesting." White Zetsu laughed wildly in his heart.
Hyuga Shisa is indeed a trustworthy ninja, but the one present is not Hyuga Shisa, but White Zetsu!
Of course, White Zetsu just thought about it normally, he still has to complete the task of transmitting information.
But it doesn't matter if he can't show his true self now. When Jiraiya and his men are surrounded and in a desperate situation, he will laugh loudly before running away.
After the meeting, the ninjas dispersed, including Jiraiya and Mu Yue.
However, after leaving, Jiraiya, Mu Yue and Namikaze Minato quickly escaped and used shadow clones to disguise themselves. Finally, the three of them met again in a hidden place.
The meeting just now was used to confuse White Zetsu. The real combat meeting had already ended, and there were only three of them participating.
"The bait has been prepared. Next, it depends on whether the Iwagakure side will take the bait." Jiraiya said, looking at the northwest where the Iwagakure ninjas were.
In order to deceive the spies, very few people knew the real battle plan. In addition to Mu Yue Jiraiya and their disciples, only the senior leaders of the support troops knew it.
"According to the intentions shown by Iwagakure at present, they definitely want to wipe out the Konoha troops of the Land of Grass in one fell swoop. They will definitely take the bait. Even if we want to eat this big fish, it will not be easy." Namikaze Minato thought.
The thousand-man support force that Muzuki said was just a lie to get Iwagakure to take the bait. In fact, the support force and Jiraiya's force combined totaled only one thousand two hundred ninjas.
Namikaze Minato didn't know the exact number of ninjas on Iwagakure's side, but based on the current number, there must be more than 1,800 ninjas, at least 600 ninjas more than Konoha.
Six hundred was quite a lot for a ninja unit, enough to form an army.
"After all, the overall situation is still not good for us. It will definitely be difficult to annihilate them all. Let's try to annihilate half." Mu Yue thought for a while and said.
Jiraiya nodded in deep agreement and said, "Half is already a good number. If it were passed back to Iwagakure, it would be enough to make Ohnoki feel distressed for a long time."
Nine hundred is half of one thousand and eighty. The resources required to cultivate a qualified nine hundred ninja are huge.
"If you defeat the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki this time, you will be the real number one among the young generation of Konoha!" Jiraiya patted Mu Yue on the shoulder and said with a smile.
During the combat meeting, Mu Yue took the initiative to ask for help, saying that he had made a big breakthrough in water escape recently, and one person was enough to deal with the four-tailed jinchūriki and the ninjas who protected the four-tailed.
"Minato, you have to work harder. Why don't you go to Mt. Myoboku now to learn the sage mode?" Jiraiya then patted Namikaze Minato again.
Namikaze Minato had a look of helplessness on his face, "Jiraiya-sensei, please stop joking, there's no way it's too late to go now, and didn't Fukasaku Sennin say it last time, my chakra training is not enough."
As a special skill that can improve ninja abilities in all aspects, Minato Namikaze naturally wants to learn Sage Mode, but learning Sage Mode itself requires strong chakra.
And Namikaze Minato currently does not meet the standard of "powerful chakra".
"It's a flaw that you don't have enough chakra. Otherwise, with Minato's talent, you might be able to learn it quickly under tremendous pressure." Jiraiya touched his chin and said.
It took him a long time to learn the sage mode.
However, Jiraiya was in a special situation. When he was learning the Sage Mode, he did not directly live in Mt. Myoboku for special training. Instead, he came to practice when he had time. The overall practice time was not particularly exaggerated.
Of course, compared to a cheating existence like Uzumaki Naruto, Jiraiya did spend a lot more time.
…
"The difference from the last time I came here is really big." Obito, who was lying on the tree and looking at the sky with a bored expression, complained in a low voice.
Although they are the same ninja unit, their energy and spirit are much worse than the last mission.
"After all, I experienced a heavy defeat." Kakashi replied.
"Hey, Kakashi, why aren't you asleep yet?" Obito looked at Kakashi sitting on the branch in surprise.
They had to move again soon, so they just found a place to sleep.
"So why didn't you sleep?" Kakashi asked.
Obito scratched his head and finally said honestly: "I'm a little concerned about the spies in the army and the atmosphere of the army this time."
Obito has experienced a lot now, but his unit has never suffered a major defeat, and there has never been a Konoha ninja rebelling and becoming a spy.
"Actually, there is no need to care. Since they have become spies, no matter what the reason is, they are already enemies of Konoha. As for the atmosphere of the army, as long as you win a big victory, your familiar feeling will come back." Kakashi said lightly .
"Oops." Obito wanted to say that what he really cared about was not the appearance, but the essence revealed after the incident.
But he didn't know how to describe it, so in the end he could only scratch his hair and sigh.
"So why didn't Kakashi sleep?"
Obito remembered that Kakashi hadn't answered his question yet.
"I'm worried that you accidentally leaked the information and I'm watching you." Kakashi replied without any secret.
The information they possess is not as comprehensive as that of Mu Yuebo Feng Shui Sect, but they are also the group with the most information besides them.
Obito's face darkened, and he wanted to scold Kakashi, but he remembered that it was late at night, so he could only swallow his words and glared at Kakashi.
"You damn white-haired person who is born evil! You actually look down on me like this." A glare was not enough to pour out the anger in his heart, and Obito cursed again in his heart.
In order to prove his ability to keep secrets, Obito fell asleep.
After Obito fell asleep, Kakashi opened the transparent world and observed his surroundings, and quickly closed his eyes.
PS: There will be another chapter later, but the time is not sure, so I suggest you read it tomorrow.
Anyway, we can definitely see it tomorrow.
