Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 428: One-sided Massacre
Sneak into the Hidden Light Village to rescue Naruto.

This was Jiraiya's plan.

Even though the plot in this life is very different from the original, some plots seem to have strong inertia, as if this or a similar plot must happen in the corresponding time period.

In the original work, it was to investigate the Akatsuki organization.

Jiraiya sneaked into the Hidden Rain Village and fought a life-and-death battle with his two former disciples.

In the end, due to lack of information, he died at the hands of his beloved disciple Uzumaki Nagato, whom he once thought was the child of prophecy.

In this life.

Obviously everything has changed dramatically.

But Jiraiya still had the same idea, but his target in this life was no longer the Akatsuki organization, and the object he needed to infiltrate was the newly rising sixth major country - the Hikari Village.

I really want to say it.

Sometimes, fate is really interesting. At least for a certain group of people, fate plays an unparalleled role.

"This is a very risky thing, Jiraiya. It is an extraordinary adventure not only for you, but also for the entire village. Although it is not a direct confrontation, the significance is similar."

Tsunade looked directly at Jiraiya and spoke word for word.

"I know what I'm doing, Tsunade, don't worry, leave everything to me."

Jiraiya nodded heavily and spoke again in an extremely firm tone.

This hero of Konoha who firmly believes in the prophecy of Mount Myoboku.

It is determined that this path is the best choice to achieve peace in the ninja world.

And inside.

Naruto is the most important one.

For Naruto and for world peace, Jiraiya is willing to give everything, even his own life.

The phrase "possessed by the devil" is the most appropriate to describe Jiraiya at this time. Unlike the same period in the original novel, Jiraiya is traveling around the world with Naruto, watching Naruto grow stronger little by little, and practicing the future he longs for little by little through conversations with Naruto.

Maybe you will be relatively calmer in your mentality.

In this life.

Suffering failures one after another.

It also focuses on the embarrassment of Menma's special identity.

This made Jiraiya feel a little unbalanced.

The previous confusion and indecision were all due to this point. There was a feeling of wanting it all.

therefore.

Toad Pill's prophecy.

It became the last straw in life that Jiraiya wanted to hold on to tightly, and it was the key choice that he felt could lead to his "rebirth".

This is something that other people will never be able to understand or empathize with.

Even Tsunade is like this.

Not to mention others.

Shikaku, who was sitting on the side, didn't know what to say when he saw that his master Jiraiya had such a "firm attitude". At this moment, Shikaku simply felt a little powerless and tired.

Although compared with the old Third Hokage.

Tsunade and Jiraiya are indeed much stronger. At least they are not so hypocritical and two-faced. They treat their own family members and others sincerely. But with such a decision-making mentality, Shikaku really doesn't know what to say.

He now doesn't know what to do and what is the right thing to do.

Sometimes we don’t have to worry about leaders not being good enough.

I am afraid that leaders will be hesitant and indecisive.

Because that would really be a devastating disaster for the people below.

Left OR right.

Once something is decided, it cannot be easily changed. This is not just a game played by ordinary people, but an important decision that directly involves the future of a large ninja village, 10,000 to 20,000 ninjas, and hundreds of thousands of people.

"Is this your choice, Jiraiya?"

"Ah, that's right, Tsunade, leave everything to me!"

Jiraiya nodded heavily and emphasized again very firmly.

He was determined to bring Naruto back.

That was an important founder of the future he hoped for.

At least Jiraiya himself thinks so.

"I will let the Anbu and hidden spies assist you as much as possible, but I still hope that you can act cautiously. Everything must be considered with the safety of the village as the first priority."

After a short silence, Tsunade finally nodded and said.

Regardless of whether it was out of trust in Jiraiya.

Or is there some other reason.

It was impossible for Tsunade to stop Jiraiya, or rather, after seeing Jiraiya's clear attitude, Tsunade was unable to stop him.

But her support has its limits.

She is not alone now, she is the Fifth Hokage of Konohagakure Village. All her judgments must be based on the basic interests of the village.

"That's enough, Tsunade, thank you for your trust!"

Hearing Tsunade's answer.

Jiraiya smiled with relief. Although he would still take corresponding actions even without Tsunade's support, the nature and process would be completely different. Having Tsunade's support was of great substantive significance, even if it was not 100% support.

To be more precise, Tsunade still had a reserved attitude.

Jiraiya was already satisfied.

After saying this sentence.

“Da da da da”

Jiraiya turned around and strode away.

Sneak into the Hikari Village is not something that can be done casually. In the original work, if you want to sneak into the Hikari Village, Jiraiya needs to put in a lot of effort. This time, it will be even more difficult to sneak into the Hikari Village.

Jiraiya must be fully prepared.

Especially when it comes to information collection, there must not be any mistakes.

Whether Menma stayed in the village was one of Jiraiya's most important criteria for determining invasion, as long as he was not 100% sure that Menma had left the village.

It has never been easy to launch an invasion.

With the Uzumaki clan's Kagura's mind eye and Suzuma's current strength, if they were discovered, they would definitely be dead.

Jiraiya no longer cares about his own life.

But we still have to consider the safety of Konohagakure Village and Naruto.

Looking at Jiraiya's receding back.

Tsunade's frown still didn't relax at all.

She still didn't agree with Jiraiya's thoughts and actions. Everything seemed too out of control. The prophecy of Mount Myoboku? Was it really something that could be trusted 100%?

Will there really be no problems?
Tsunade's heart was filled with gloom.

"Tsunade-sama, do you really want to let Jiraiya-sama sneak into the Hidden Light Village alone? Let's not talk about the consequences of mission failure. Even if it succeeds, it is likely to bring about unexpected huge impacts. That Uzumaki Menma cannot be judged by common sense."

Shikaku, who had remained silent before, couldn't help but speak at this moment. It was not that Shikaku's mentality was not good, but that the Ino, Shikaku, and Chou clans were already deeply bound to the Hidden Leaf Village. As the common leader of the three ninja clans, whether it was the Yamanaka clan headed by Haiyi or the Akimichi clan headed by Choza, they basically completely believed in and obeyed Shikaku's judgment.

He doesn't represent himself alone.

Instead, they represent three ninja clans, with a total of more than two thousand members.

The stability of Konoha means the stability of their three ninja clans. If Konoha encounters a huge crisis, their three ninja clans will also be in danger of overthrow. Shikaku must take into account all the possible dangers that Konoha may encounter and try to eliminate them one by one.

"It's okay to give it a try. It's also another option. And Jiraiya has obviously made up his mind. It doesn't matter whether I support him or not."

The key point is still the second half of the sentence.

Steadily and steadily carry out the previously decided strategy.

This is what Tsunade wants to do most.

Since this problem may not be solved even at great risk, why not put it aside for the time being?
Further risky actions may easily lead to uncontrollable risks.

To be fair.

Tsunade wanted to sit back and watch the situation in the ninja world change.

Tsunade could neither accept nor stop Jiraiya's change.

You can't really use force to stop Jiraiya, right?

"Take a step first and take a look."

Tsunade sighed softly and said faintly.

Shikaku on the side had an expression as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, but in the end he also let out a low sigh in his heart.

It can almost be said that these are strategic choices that change frequently.

In just half a year.

Konoha, led by Tsunade, Jiraiya and others, has experienced three changes in attitude.

From the initial cold treatment to the later high-profile move, contacting multiple ninja villages to put pressure together, trying to flatten the Hikari Village and capture Menma, to the hope that they could coexist peacefully with Menma and recreate the relationship between Konoha and Uzushio Village in the past, at the very least, stabilize the situation and prevent it from deteriorating further, and then to the current situation of wanting to take action against others.

It repeats so quickly.

It is really not something that ordinary people can understand or compare.

And it was here in the Hidden Leaf Village that a subtle change in attitude occurred because of the so-called prophecy of Mount Myoboku brought by Jiraiya.

"Boom!"

"Peng!"

"Peng!"

At the southern end of the continent, the front line area of ​​the battle between the Hikari Village and the Kirigakure Village.

The air combat unit led by Shibuki finally arrived at the designated location. Although they tried their best to hide the traces of the unit, the target was too large and obvious. As a result, the air combat unit was captured by the Mist Ninjas on the front line less than half a day after leaving the secret base in the west of the village.

However, knowing is one thing, but whether you can stop it is another.

"The air combat force has arrived, right? Then immediately launch a strong attack on the Mist Ninja frontline camp!"

Even the Mist Ninja can detect it.

Being at the front line, it makes no sense for the commander-in-chief to do nothing.

Almost one step ahead of the Mist Ninja.

Wuwei directly issued an order for a full-scale counterattack.

Let Shibuki directly divide the air combat force into two batches with two flying combat fortresses, one part will cover the defending Light Ninjas and sweep the surrounding Mist Ninjas.

The remaining batch of air combat troops directly cooperated with Wuwei's main force and launched a strong attack on the front-line camp of the Mist Ninja.

Absolute disadvantage in numbers.

This left Wuwei with almost nothing to do during this period of time, and he could only tear down Peter to repair Paul every day.

Yugao and Suigetsu are both very good at killing.

Even if the two of them fight alone, they can easily suppress more than three-digit Mist Ninja troops. Unless the Hidden Mist Village can dispatch more than a hundred jonin at a time, and cooperate with the corresponding ninjas from the sealing and barrier classes, it will be possible to fight against Yugao and Mizuki.

But it is difficult for the Hidden Mist Village to produce troops of this level now.

This is also why the Mist Ninjas never launch frontal attacks with large-scale concentrated troops after arriving at the front line.

Because that would easily give Yugao and Suigetsu, who have fully transformed into tailed beasts, the opportunity to capture them all in one fell swoop.

As long as the people don't gather together.

This way, the risk can be reduced to the lowest level possible.

This is the best tactic that the Mist Ninja can adopt at this stage.

The continuous suppression in the early stage and the wave after wave of attacks like the sea waves are the best proof. No matter what the actual casualty ratio is, at least on the scene it seems that the Hidden Mist Village has a very obvious advantage.

To an outsider, it looks like the Hidden Mist Village is clearly suppressing the Hidden Light Village.

As long as there is such an atmosphere, that is enough.

Anyway, Obito was satisfied.

pity.

Such good times are destined not to last long.

Following Karin's suggestion, Menma made the final decision, and the air combat troops coming to support would inevitably break this delicate advantage.

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

Figures flashed across the ground, and combat units took off one after another in the sky, surrounding the extremely conspicuous giant air combat flying fortress.

"How can it be repaired? It's actually the technology of the Land of the Sky!? When did the Hikari Village get the legacy of the Land of the Sky!?"

It was easy to wipe out the frontier Mist Ninjas.

It was almost as easy to advance the battle line as cutting melons and vegetables.

"Peng!"

"Peng!"

"Boom!"

With the support of high-altitude precision bombing, the advance of the Light Ninjas was unstoppable. The front-line commanders of the Mist Ninjas who received the news all looked grim.

The mark that the Land of the Sky left on the five major nations was very profound. The individual strength of the sky ninjas was indeed not strong, but as long as they were able to fly, it would be almost impossible to fight against them unless they were senior ninjas. In this world, being able to fly was truly a huge advantage, not to mention the cooperation of the giant flying fortress.

This is not just a simple "military depot", it is also equipped with countless weapons, with the power that a giant military money-eating beast can unleash.

It is an existence that ordinary ninjas can never reach.

"Pfft!"

"Peng"

The Mist Ninjas who were killed one after another and were unable to make effective counterattacks were completely in a one-sided slaughter mode. Their morale plummeted at that moment.

What if we could learn about the arrival of the air combat force in advance? ?

Hitting high against low is pure SB.

The reason why the Kingdom of the Sky was defeated twenty or thirty years ago was because of its inflated self-confidence, which led to excessive provocation of too many enemies.

It might be a bit troublesome for a ninja village to deal with you.

But if multiple ninja villages unite, the strength of the Sky Country will be in vain unless it increases several times.

And now the Hidden Mist Village not only has no allies to help it.

His own strength had reached an all-time low, an unprecedentedly weak period. He couldn't even produce a powerful shadow-level warrior to support his appearance, so how could he deal with the air combat force? ?

Not to mention that the ground forces below also have the presence of two great killers, Shuiyue and Yugao.
