Chapter 565: The Immortal fights against the Jinchūriki and takes orders in times of danger
The perception team applied by Jiraiya solved the problem of Iwagakure's assassination.
However, it was not that the Sensing Team cooperated with Namikaze Minato to kill the ninjas who came to assassinate them, but that Iwagakure's assassin team disappeared and did not attack again.
Jiraiya believed that this might be a small error in intelligence, which caused the assassin team to learn the news prematurely and therefore gave up the assassination activity.
Although the process was different from what he imagined, the problem was still solved, so Jiraiya didn't pay too much attention.
The final victory on the battlefield will still have to be fought in a big battle, and harassment by small groups will not play a decisive role.
However, the next development of things was somewhat beyond Jiraiya's expectations.
Iwagakure has shown super intelligence capabilities. Even though the Konoha Ninja Force has the help of the local ninja force Kusakunin Village, the Konoha Ninja Force is still at a disadvantage in the intelligence war.
Unable to detect the movements of the opponent's ninja troops, the actions of one's own ninja troops were repeatedly exposed and then failed.
Jiraiya, the loser, suspected that there was a high-ranking Iwagakure spy in the intelligence department.
But this is unlikely, because people with dirty resumes cannot get this position.
There is no chance that there are spies in ANBU.
Faced with constant defeats, Jiraiya chose to switch from offense to defense, reducing the scope of activity of Konoha ninjas and minimizing damage as much as possible.
He can only do this. The failure in the intelligence war caused them to lose the initiative. In this case, forcing themselves to show off will only allow Iwagakure to continue to expand their advantages.
However, what Jiraiya didn't expect was that just as he was about to enter a full-scale defensive state, the information about the large army camp was somehow known to Iwagakure.
Boom!
A huge explosion suddenly appeared in the Konoha ninja camp, startling Jiraiya and others who were looking at the map and studying strategies.
“Jiraiya-sama, no good, we were discovered by the Iwagakure troops!” A Konoha jounin hurriedly ran into the camp to report.
"Iwagakure called?" Jiraiya frowned, "What's going on in the sensing team?"
The reason he chose to defend was because he wanted to take advantage of Konoha's excellent perception ninjas to offset the disadvantages of intelligence warfare.
As a result, Iwagakure called over, and the sensing team was stunned but there was no movement at all.
"I don't know, the perception class did not issue an early warning notice." Konoha Jonin shook his head.
Boom!
There was another loud explosion. Jiraiya knew that this was not the time to think about the negligence of the sensing team. What he wanted to do was to lead the Konoha ninja troops out of the crisis.
Jiraiya crossed over to the Konoha jounin, preparing to command the Konoha ninja troops to counterattack.
At this moment, a cold light flashed in the eyes of the Konoha Jonin, and he quickly took out his kunai and stabbed Jiraiya.
boom!
Minato Namikaze, who reacted very quickly, exploded with chakra and kicked the Konoha Jonin away.
Jiraiya was stunned. He didn't expect that the Konoha ninja just now would attack him.
That is a jounin of the Sarutobi clan, how could there be a spy?
“The art of messing up the lion’s hair!”
Jiraiya is after all a powerful ninja who has experienced many battles. Although he was puzzled by the attack of Sarutobi Jonin, Jiraiya quickly used ninjutsu to attack Sarutobi Jonin.
No matter what the identity of Sarutobi Jonin is, it is a fact that Sarutobi Jonin attacked him, then Sarutobi Jonin is the enemy.
The battlefield attack commander, even if Jiraiya killed him on the spot, no one could say anything.
咻咻!
At this time, several cone-shaped stones smashed over.
Jiraiya recognized that it was the explosive escape of Iwakura, the deputy captain of the Iwagakure Explosive Force, and immediately changed his move, and the long hair that extended quickly came back to cover Jiraiya's body.
Whoosh!
Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique to transfer.
Boom!
Explosions sounded one after another, and the rocks flying towards Jiraiya and Namikaze Minato suddenly exploded, and the violent explosion enveloped Jiraiya in white light.
咻咻!
Minato Namikaze knew that such an attack would not be able to kill Jiraiya, so after moving, he immediately threw several flying thunder **** kunai towards Iwaku.
"Your opponent is not me." Iwaku spit out a stone and blew up the incoming flying thunder **** kunai, and then quickly retreated.
He is self-aware and understands that he is not suitable to deal with a speedy ninja like Namikaze Minato.
Just when Namikaze Minato wanted to pursue him, an extremely powerful chakra burst out.
"Minato Namikaze, have you decided how to die?" Lao Zi walked out and blocked Minato Namikaze's way.
Namikaze Minato's expression turned solemn. This was obviously a surprise attack that wanted to wipe out the Konoha ninjas of the Land of Grass in one fell swoop.
In his perception, not only the two captains of the Iwagakure blasting force were present, but also the two jinchuriki of Iwagakure.
“Psychic art!”
After blocking the incoming blast, Jiraiya immediately used the psychic beast to summon the two immortals from Mt. Myoboku.
"There are so many powerful chakras, little Jiraiya, it's another tough battle." As soon as Fukasaku Sage came out, he sensed the chakras of the jinchūriki and the powerful Iwagakure.
“It’s really not the right time. I almost thought about what to make for dinner, but my thoughts were interrupted by a psychic.” Shima Sennin complained.
“Damn it, this is not the time to talk about this.”
“Dad, don’t underestimate the troubles of a housewife.”
"Stop arguing." Jiraiya noticed that the Sarutobi jounin who fell on the ground had disappeared inexplicably, and said rather helplessly.
“Hurry up and stand on my shoulders and enter the fairy mode, this time it is very dangerous.”
Jiraiya is now under a lot of pressure. He is not worried about being punished if he loses the battle, but he is worried about the defeat of the Iwagakure troops and the direct invasion of the Land of Fire.
The two immortals also knew the importance, so without saying much, they quickly jumped on Jiraiya's shoulders and began to absorb the natural energy.
“Boiling Escape·Unparalleled Strange Power!”
Just when Jiraiya was about to use the sage mode, a sound similar to the whine of a train sounded, and a man in red armor rushed towards Jiraiya.
Whoosh!
boom!
Jiraiya suddenly jumped up and got out of the way, and a huge hole instantly appeared on the ground where he was standing.
Han looked at Jiraiya calmly, not surprised at all.
If the legendary Sannin were so easy to kill, Jiraiya would have died in his or Lao Zi's hands long ago.
“Immortal mode!”
After condensing the natural abilities, Jiraiya merged the chakra with the natural abilities into a stronger senjutsu chakra, facial makeup appeared on his face, and his nose showed a tendency to turn into a toad.
"The situation is not as bad as imagined." When he entered the sage mode and sensed the situation on the entire battlefield, Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief.
There was no news from the perception class, and Jiraiya thought that half of the entire ninja army might be dead as soon as he started sensing.
But the real result was much better than Jiraiya expected.
At present, there are probably more than 700 Konoha ninjas fighting hard against Iwagakure.
What Jiraiya didn't know was that Iwagakure, who looked like he was strategizing and making a smooth haircut, was also quite confused.
Riishi did get information about the Konoha ninja troop camp from the Iwagakure intelligence personnel, but the intelligence did not say for sure that this was the main force of Konoha.
Moreover, Split Rock was not one of Yunyin's gang of fools, so he rushed over after getting the information.
What if it’s a trap that your opponent lures them into?
And if it really is the main force of Konoha, there must be many sentient ninjas on guard, making a sneak attack almost impossible to succeed.
But if you have information, you will lose if you don’t try it.
Finally, Split Stone came up with a solution. He divided the two thousand ninja troops into three small groups.
The first small unit was led by him. There were only 500 people but most of them were elites. The jinchūriki and the demolition team would be among this elite unit.
The second small unit and the third small unit are both regular units, standing by on both sides behind the elite small unit.
One is to prevent falling into a trap and being made dumplings, and the other is to block the location to the greatest extent and prevent the Konoha ninja troops from escaping.
If the cracked stone is sure that it is not a trap, he will immediately send out a signal for two regular troops to surround and attack together.
Rishi never expected that he would lead his troops all the way to the Konoha camp, only to be discovered by patrolling ninjas near the camp. It seemed that all the Konoha Sentient squadrons were dead.
Before seeing many Konoha ninjas, Rishi once thought that this was not the main force of Konoha ninjas.
Boom!
Kaishi used explosive escape to carry out bombings unscrupulously. It didn't matter what problems happened to the Konoha ninja troops. What was important was that he had to make great contributions and become famous.
The ninja troops led by the Sannin Jiraiya will be defeated and destroyed by him.
“Psychic art!”
Jiraiya slammed the ground, and two giant toads appeared at his feet.
One of the red toads has a pipe in its mouth and a short sword on its waist. The other is a purple toad, carrying a large pot lid on its back and holding a harpoon covered with thorns.
"You guys stop the Five-Tails Jinchuuriki, and I'll deal with the commander on the other side." Jiraiya said quickly.
The principle of capturing the thief first is also useful in the ninja world. If Jiraiya can solve the cracked stone, not to mention turning defeat into victory, it will at least lower the morale of the opponent's ninja troops by several levels.
"What, I beat a tailed beast?" Gamabunta's eyelids twitched fiercely.
Although it is not much smaller than the tailed beast in terms of size, it is somewhat difficult for it to go head-to-head with the tailed beast.
"Although I am very clumsy, I will try my best to stop him." Toadjian replied in a deep voice.
"It only needs to be blocked for a short time, please!" After saying that, Jiraiya locked on the cracked stone, burst out chakra and dodged away.
Han turned around and wanted to pursue him, but Toad Jian jumped up suddenly and swung the harpoon towards Han.
Han stopped and the tailed beast chakra power in his body exploded. With Fei Dun's persistence, his power skyrocketed.
“Boiling Escape·Unparalleled Strange Power!”
Han held the harpoon wielded by Toad Jian with one hand.
Toad Jian wanted to flatten Han with all his strength, but under Han's terrifying power, the harpoon was motionless. Not only could he not press it down, Toad Jian could not pull it back even if he wanted to.
“You bastard, go to hell!”
Gamabunta drew out the dagger from his waist and slashed at Han.
Although it is called a "short sword", that is to compare with Gamabunta's huge size. In fact, the length of this short sword is several times that of the Han Dynasty.
Han pushed Gama Takeru hard, pushing Gama Takeru back repeatedly, and then used the teleportation technique backward to avoid Gama Bunta's slashing.
Han knew that these two psychic beasts, Jiraiya, were not easy to deal with unless they showed their true abilities, so he quickly stimulated the tailed beast chakra in his body. The extremely ominous looking dark red chakra rose rapidly from Han's body, turning Han into a big dark red monster with five tails.
Jiraiya, who rushed towards the cracked stone, felt Han's chakra growing stronger, and felt an even greater sense of urgency in his heart.
The only ninja on the scene who is qualified to fight the jinchuriki head-on is him. Minato can only contain him at best. He must solve the cracked stone very quickly.
“Fire Release·Big Flame Bullet!”
Jiraiya quickly refined the senjutsu chakra in his body into oil and held it in his mouth. Finally, when he spit it out, he changed the nature of the fire attribute chakra to ignite the oil.
Hurrah!
A large amount of flames suddenly appeared, burning the few Iwagakure ninjas closest to Jiraiya to death, and then rushed towards the cracked stone with undiminished momentum.
Although the name sounds simple and unpretentious, the power of the large flame bullets used by Jiraiya in Sage mode is very fierce, and its power exceeds most of the fire escapes in the ninja world.
Although Split Stone has good hardening skills, he did not dare to collide with it head-on and quickly retreated.
“Explosive Escape·Exploding Flying Rocks!”
Seeing that the captain was in trouble, Iwakura quickly spit out explosive flying stones to help the cracking stones block Jiraiya's senjutsu fire escape.
“Psychic art!”
Jiraiya used his psychic technique again and summoned a giant toad with green skin.
Jiraiya asked Togahiro to deal with Iwaku and the surrounding Iwagakure Jonin, while he continued to pursue the cracked stone.
"Those who can retreat, retreat as much as possible. The enemy still has reinforcements!" Jiraiya ordered the Konoha ninjas on the battlefield.
The powerful perception of the sage mode allowed him to detect the approaching chakra in the distance.
Of course, you don’t actually need to sense it to know, because the cracked stone is sending out flares openly.
“Immortal Technique·Thousands of Hair Needles!”
Jiraiya in sage mode was already very powerful, and with the help of two sages, Rishi was no match for him, and Jiraiya quickly seized the opportunity.
Under the influence of Senjutsu Chakra, Jiraiya's white hair became sharp and hard.
Even though Split Stone had good hardening skills, he could only withstand part of it, and his body was quickly covered in blood under the blows of the white-haired Qianbon.
“What a waste!”
“Molten Escape·The Technique of Burning River Rocks!”
Lao Zi, who was chasing Namikaze Minato, had no choice but to give up on Namikaze Minato and ran towards Jiraiya, spitting out a huge lava fireball and hitting Jiraiya.
“Rasengan!”
Namikaze Minato seized the opportunity, and a large amount of chakra condensed in his palm exploded, and he quickly rolled out a ball and hit Lao Zi.
But because Lao Zi was in the Melting Chakra Mode and had high-temperature Melting Armor, Minato's Rasengan not only failed to hurt Lao Zi, but even burned his own hand.
"The defense is so high." Namikaze Minato was a little helpless.
Once the enemy's defense exceeds the power of the Rasengan, it will be difficult for Namikaze Minato to pose a threat to the enemy.
Lao Zi continued to rush towards Jiraiya without looking back.
Because he knew that he might not be able to kill Namikaze Minato if he turned back, but if he didn't look back, Rishi would really die.
Although I don’t think highly of Rishi, the opponent is the battlefield commander and the captain of the Iwagakure blasting force. If he dies in Jiraiya’s hands, it will have a very bad impact.
“Water slash!”
Shima Sennin's seal spit out high-pressure water to cut off the incoming melting fireball, and then said quickly: "Little Jiraiya, retreat quickly."
It was not only the four-tailed jinchuriki that attacked, the five-tailed jinchuriki also repelled Gamabunta and Gamaken, and were rushing towards them at high speed.
Whoosh!
Jiraiya had no choice but to cancel his ninjutsu and move away.
"It's a pity, it was just a little bit close." Looking at the cracked stones covered with wounds, Jiraiya secretly thought it was a pity.
If the jinchūriki were two seconds later, Kaishi would definitely die from his senjutsu.
"Minato, use a wide range of ninjutsu attacks." Jiraiya reminded Namikaze Minato while condensing chakra.
Now Jiraiya has only one goal, which is to cover the evacuation of as many Konoha ninjas as possible.
His powerful strength coupled with Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique, makes it difficult for Iwagakure to keep them.
Ordinary Konoha ninjas do not have this condition, so they must have someone to help them.
As long as enough ninjas withdraw, then Konoha will not be a disastrous defeat in this war, but just a failure.
Waiting for the arrival of Konoha's reinforcements, and then gathering them, there was another powerful ninja force.
"Senfa·Goemon!"
Jiraiya and the two sages on his shoulders used ninjutsu at the same time. Fukasaku sage used wind escape, Shima sage used fire escape, and Jiraiya spit out chakra oil.
The three ninjutsu are all senjutsu blessed by senjutsu chakra. The three ninjutsu complement each other and eventually become the terrifyingly powerful Goemon.
One Iwagakure failed to escape and died suddenly without even screaming.
“Fire Release·Toad Oil Flame Bullet!”
Minato Namikaze jumped on Gamabunta's head, and formed a seal to condense chakra to change the properties of fire chakra, while Gamabunta refined chakra to make toad oil.
The two worked together, and the terrifying flames instantly burned everything within dozens of meters to black.
Minato Namikaze also signed a contract with Mt. Myoboku, and was an old acquaintance with Gamabunta.
However, due to his combat style, Namikaze Minato generally does not use necromancy to summon the toads in Mt. Myouki.
“Then let’s see whose ninjutsu is stronger!”
Upon seeing this, Lao Zi exerted the power of the tailed beast in his body to the extreme, and his body rapidly changed, turning into a huge ape with a tail.
Lao Zi opened his mouth, a huge amount of chakra condensed, and a black ball slowly appeared in the air.
“Don’t…” Li Shi wanted to stop him.
This tailed beast jade will divide the battlefield when it goes down. The Konoha ninjas are eager to escape far away, so it will not have much impact on the Konoha ninjas.
As for Iwagakure who wants to chase, the impact will be great. Who dares to chase people despite the explosion of the tailed beast jade.
The sound of the injured stone being cracked was a little faint. Lao Zi might not have heard it, or he might have heard it but didn't want to pay attention to it.
In short, at that moment the tailed beast jade, which represented the power of destruction, flew out and hit between Namikaze Minato and Jiraiya.
Whoosh!
Namikaze Minato used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport to Jiraiya.
In order to facilitate the battle, Jiraiya always carried Namikaze Minato's Flying Thunder God Kunai close to him on the battlefield.
Immediately afterwards, Namikaze Minato put his hand on Jiraiya, and once again activated the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport to a marked distance, while Jiraiya canceled the psychic technique, allowing the toads to automatically return to Mt. Myoboku.
"It's really thrilling. Fortunately, Minato is here." Jiraiya patted Namikaze Minato on the shoulder and said.
Without Namikaze Minato, he would have been really in trouble this time.
It would be too difficult to fight the jinchūriki and Iwagakure strong men after suffering the blow from Sarutobi Jonin.
"Jiraiya-sensei, Iwagakure's behavior in this war is really weird." Namikaze Minato said with a solemn expression.
Jiraiya nodded with deep understanding.
Before today, who would have thought that a jounin of the Sarutobi clan could actually be a spy.
The Sarutobi clan is not only the elder family of Konoha, but also has the third generation Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen. It stands to reason that the ninjas of the Sarutobi clan are all honest and have no motive for betrayal.
“When Hiromichi Jounin disappeared, the phenomenon was exactly the same as when the Iwagakure assassin team disappeared before.” Namikaze Minato said with a serious face.
After using Flying Thunder God to get out of the way, Namikaze Minato was paying attention to Sarutobi Hiromi.
Sarutobi Hiromi's disappearance is very similar to using earth escape to burrow into the ground, but it is obviously different from ordinary earth escape.
Because after Hiromi Sarutobi merged into the ground, his aura disappeared directly, as if he didn't exist.
However, Namikaze Minato knew that Sarutobi Hiromichi existed, because although he couldn't sense Sarutobi Hiromichi's aura, he could sense the Flying Thunder God mark he left behind!
At the moment of contact with Hiromi Sarutobi, Namikaze Minato left the Flying Thunder God Technique on his body.
It was just because the battle situation was too severe that Namikaze Minato couldn't get away. In addition, Sarutobi Hiromichi was too fast and soon left the range of his perception. Namikaze Minato did not capture Sarutobi Hiromichi.
“Well, it’s getting more and more confusing.” Jiraiya rubbed his forehead.
He is not a particularly alert person to begin with, and the various anomalies in this war have overloaded his CPU.
"But since Minato you have left the Mark of the Flying Thunder God on him, it will be easy to handle. Next time you encounter him, just catch him and torture him to find out." Jiraiya exhaled and said.
The Mark of the Flying Thunder God has a characteristic that it can never be eliminated as long as the caster does not take the initiative to cancel it.
In other words, the next time they encounter Hiromi Sarutobi, Minato can fly directly to Raijin and arrest him.
Namikaze Minato nodded, he had the same idea.
"Gather the troops and report the situation to the village." Jiraiya patted the dust on his body and thought about the next work.
Although he suffered a defeat, Jiraiya's mentality was still good. This was not the first time he lost to Iwagakure.
During the Second Ninja War, Jiraiya was defeated by the Rain Ninja.
…
“This is what happened. The troops of the Country of Grass were damaged. Now the Iwagakure of the Country of Grass is rampant. No one knows when they will launch an attack on the border.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen briefly described the current situation of the battlefield in the Land of Grass and then said to Mu Yue in a deep voice.
“Sandaime-sama, is there anything I can do?” Mu Yue asked directly.
The character he set up was a ninjutsu genius, and he was not a highly intelligent military strategist like the Nara clan. There was only one possibility for Sarutobi Hiruzen to ask him to come over and talk about the current situation of the war.
Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted Mu Yue to be a firefighter and go to the battlefield to help Jiraiya.
"I'm very happy, Muyue, that you have such an awareness. Now I order you to command the support force and lead five hundred ninjas to the Country of Grass to support the troops of the Country of Grass!" Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled, and then ordered with a serious look on his face. road.
