Chapter 400: Damn Konoha Ninja
After Aoba left with Eaton, the Anbu on the scene also dispersed one after another, including Hokage's Anbu who were observing the relationship between Aoba and Eaton.
In the ninja world of this period, the transmission of information was not so fast, and everything was not so developed.
There was no way to transmit information too quickly.
Sunagakure's carrier bird seems to be relatively fast here.
The matter of Konohagakure being flooded had not yet been spread to the front line. Not only was the village far from the front line, but Hiruzen and the others were also busy draining the water. They did not have time and energy to think about the situation at the front line and did not send this information out.
Because of this.
The Hokage's Anbu here was still executing the previous orders. They did not know that Aoba had been cleared of suspicion.
Gradually.
The ninjas at the gathering point had already dispersed.
According to Hokage's Anbu Captain, they did not need to take the initiative to attack. Instead, they just needed to wait here for Iwagakure to attack.
This was also in line with Hiruzen's character.
Others might not know, would not understand, and would not know why they were doing this.
Aoba was still clear.
He knew that Hiruzen was doing this to find a turning point. Once a war could be avoided, even if he had to pay a price, Hiruzen would be willing to do such a thing. Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com
So...
Hiruzen was finding this opportunity.
Let go of the opportunity to attack first in the war, put the ninjas on the front line in a passive defensive position, and not take the initiative to attack.
Thinking of this.
The corners of Aoba's mouth slightly curled up.
"Since you don't want to start a war, then I will help you!"
Aoba silently muttered this, but his body was still following Eaton, without making any changes.
...
In the forest.
Aoba's shadow clone slowly walked out.
As Aoba's shadow clone walked, the sound of paper flipping came from his body.
As these sounds rang out.
The skin of Aoba's shadow clone became paper and flipped.
After Aoba formed the hand seals, he suddenly took a deep breath. After that, his chest quickly swelled up, and then he spat out. The entire process was smooth, without the slightest obstruction.
A huge fireball directly shot toward Iwagakure's tent.
This fireball was extremely huge.
It was far more powerful than normal fireball techniques.
It almost covered Iwagakure's camp.
Just as Aoba's clone spat out the flames, Iwagakure's ninjas jumped out one by one and quickly used different methods to dodge, avoiding being burned by the fireball.
Only...
People could dodge.
The camp could not dodge.
There were many tents in the camp, and inside the tents were the daily necessities that Iwagakure ninjas needed, as well as many personal items.
This time, Aoba launched a sudden attack on Iwagakure camp at the front line of Country of Earth not to attack people at all, but for these supplies.
There were clothes, food, and everything they need to support here.
Now, he wanted to burn all of them.
As a result.
The ninjas on Iwagakure's front line had to face a cruel choice.
Either retreat immediately.
Or crazily attack Konohagakure.
In short.
There was no longer a stalemate.
Such a small action was enough to break Hiruzen's plan, break this fragile tranquility, and let the war arrive sooner.
The fireball that Aoba's clone shot out burned the tent. These tents were all made of wood and cloth. Their materials were flammable, and when they encountered flames, they instantly burned.
"Not good!"
"It's on fire!"
"Damn Konoha ninja!"
"Quickly put out the fire!"
"Our things are still in the tent!"
"..."
Among the Iwagakure ninjas, there were urgent voices. Their eyes turned red when they saw the billowing black smoke and fire from the camp tents.
