Konoha's Hextech Ninja

Especially since the Raikage was personally leading the team.

From a rational perspective, the most correct choice would have been to report to the village immediately and have it strengthen its defenses in that direction.

"At your speed, how long will it take to get back to the village and report?" Yagami Yoruichi asked.

“I’m the fastest,” Inuzuka Tsurugi said first. “If we travel at full speed and encounter no unexpected events along the way, I can guarantee that we’ll be back in Konoha within five days!”

The southern coastline of the Land of Fire is still some distance from Konoha Village.

For a Chunin, being able to return to the village within five days is already considered very fast.

"Five days... Even if the village sends reinforcements, it will take at least two or three days, even if it's just an elite vanguard. That means it will take seven or eight days."

Yagami Yoruichi pondered for a moment.

In seven or eight days, including time for rest and chakra recovery, Yoruichi Yagami will be able to make at least a dozen moves.

Assuming an average of twenty Cloud Ninjas can be killed each time, that would add up to three or four hundred people.

This is already considered a very high return.

If the [Attribute Forging Tool] is powerful enough, and you get more '15% Constitution Attribute' fragments, this number may even increase.

In addition, the Konoha ninja who came to provide support are also a good 'observation spot'.

They were able to send back to the village the news of Yagami Yoruichi's battle against the Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, thus spreading Yagami Yoruichi's fame.

Overall, it's not a bad thing.

Thinking of this, Yagami Yoruichi spoke up: "Aburame Keima, stay here. Inuzuka Tsurugi and Hyuga Ryouta, you two, go back to the village immediately and report that there are over a thousand Cloud Ninja lurking in the southern bay with unclear intentions. Among them are the Third Raikage, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, and no fewer than twenty elite Jonin! Request the village to send strong reinforcements as quickly as possible to ensure the southern defense line is secure! If possible, it would be best to have Sakumo Hatake lead the team!"

Chapter 167 Double the Super Kage-level Attributes!

"asshole!"

Seeing the mess before him, the Third Raikage was so enraged that he smashed the nearly sunken half of the ship's wreckage to pieces with a single punch.

This is the umpteenth time in just a few days that I've been ambushed by that damned brat!

Although each loss was not significant.

However, after so many battles, the Cloud Ninja army had already lost nearly 40% of its forces before even getting close to the Land of Wind.

What angered the Third Raikage the most was that the opponent possessed a strange space-time ninjutsu, allowing him to fight or run away at will.

Despite possessing formidable offensive power, he was unable to catch his opponent at all.

"Haven't you figured out the spatial barrier you were supposed to research yet?! If that bastard keeps using space-time ninjutsu to launch sneak attacks, all of our people will be wiped out!"

The Third Raikage angrily rebuked his subordinates.

"Lord Raikage..." A ninja skilled in sealing and barriers looked distressed and explained, "Developing sealing barriers is extremely difficult, and it also requires restricting spatial abilities. We have no experience in this area, and it's simply impossible to complete it within a few days. Even if the Land of Swirl, which was once the most skilled in sealing techniques, were to come and develop barriers of this level, it would take years to achieve reliable results!"

Seeing his comrades dying one after another in enemy ambushes, this sealing ninja was anxious and angry, and wanted to develop a sealing technique that could restrict the enemy's space-time ninjutsu as soon as possible.

But sealing techniques and barriers are things you simply can't do without; there's no way to cheat or take shortcuts.

"Damn it, if I had known that I should have fought with Kirigakure back when we destroyed the Land of Swirls, I should have taken more sealing techniques!"

The Third Raikage became so angry that he started to speak recklessly.

"Lord Raikage."

A ninja suddenly spoke up: "The information was sent from the village using the 'Heavenly Delivery Technique'."

As he spoke, he handed over a scroll.

The Third Raikage took the scroll, glanced at it a few times, and his already dark face darkened even more: "So that brat is a Konoha ninja!"

"A Konoha ninja?!"

Burubi rose from the water, with several giant octopus tails behind him carrying dozens of drowning Cloud Ninjas. He threw them one by one onto the boat and handed them over to the medical ninjas for treatment.

Then he climbed onto the boat, walked to the Third Raikage's side, and said with a gloomy face, "Brother, we can't let this go! Since Konoha sent people to deal with us, let's just launch a surprise attack on Konoha and avenge our brothers!"

Let's launch a surprise attack on Konoha and avenge our brothers!

These words struck a chord with the Third Raikage.

The atmosphere in Yunren Village is one of valuing martial arts and brotherhood.

In their minds, avenging their fallen brothers is a matter of course, even something a qualified leader must do.

"Hey!" The Third Raikage looked at the 'strategists' in the large group and ordered, "You guys, study the possibility of turning around and attacking Konoha!"

……

Southern coastline of the Land of Fire.

Yagami Yoruichi was teleported back using the Flying Thunder God Technique and appeared next to Aburame Keima.

Upon seeing Yagami Yoruichi, Aburame Keima, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately stood up and said, "Captain, we have received the village's signal that the advance troops supporting the southern border are almost here. Let us go and meet them."

As she spoke, Aburame Keishin handed over a slip of paper: "This is the location and time of the meeting."

Yagami Yoru glanced at it; the location wasn't far, only a few dozen kilometers away.

At Yagami Yoruichi's speed, she'll arrive in no time.

The time is a few hours later, after recovering some chakra, then I can go, which will be just in time.

Yagami Yoruichi didn't ask Aburame Keima how he got this information.

Konoha has never lacked means to contact ninjas outside the village, especially those from ninja clans. Even if the village doesn't know their exact location, they can still contact them through various means.

"I'll rest for a while and recover my chakra before we set off again," Yagami Yoruichi said, then asked, "Do you know who the ninja leading the team is?"

When Yagami Yoruichi sent Inuzuka Tsurugi and Hyuga Ryota back to the village to report the news, he asked them to simultaneously suggest to the village that Hatake Sakumo lead a team to provide support.

On one hand, it's because of Sakumo Hatake's strength.

On the other hand, according to the original storyline, this year is the year that Sakumo Hatake will commit suicide.

The mission in the Hidden Village was successfully completed with the help of Yoruichi Yagami.

It's almost the end of the year now.

If Shimura Danzo hadn't used the Iwagakure mission to frame Hatake Sakumo, but instead had another mission, he probably would have taken action soon.

By using the pretext of 'preventing the Hidden Cloud Village from launching a war,' Hatake Sakumo was transferred to the front lines, which also prevented Shimura Danzo from secretly plotting against him.

Regardless, Hatake Sakumo was her friend's father and had helped her before. Yagami Yoruichi couldn't just stand by and watch him die in the power struggles of Konoha's upper echelons.

As for the future...

Yagami Yoruichi glanced at the system panel.

At his current rate of strength improvement, Shimura Danzo will have no future after this war ends.

"According to the information I have," Aburame Keima said, "the commander-in-chief who led the team to provide support is none other than Lord Hatake Sakumo."

Hearing this, Yoruichi Yagami breathed a slight sigh of relief.

With Sakumo Hatake on the front lines, at least he won't be killed by Danzo Shimura.

Even if there are traps set by Danzo Shimura on the front lines, with me there, I can guarantee that at least nothing serious enough will happen that would force Sakumo Hatake to commit suicide as an apology.

"I'm relieved to see Sakumo-senpai here." Yagami Yoruichi nodded.

Sakumo Hatake's strength is definitely among the top tier in Konoha.

Even when it comes to one-on-one combat against strong opponents, Yagami Yoruichi believes that Hatake Sakumo should be the strongest in Konoha.

During his last mission in the Land of Earth, Yagami Yoruichi had personally witnessed Hatake Sakumo's terrifying swordsmanship.

In Yagami Yoruichi's view, the extreme destructive power brought by the lightning chakra attached to that short sword was enough to break through the Third Raikage's lightning armor.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Sakumo Hatake is stronger than Yoruichi Yagami; it just means that they have different strengths.

Sakumo Hatake's attack and speed have reached the pinnacle of a Kage-level ninja, but his defense, endurance, and ability to attack multiple targets are his weaknesses.

If faced with an attack from a large group of low-ranking ninjas, Hatake Sakumo would likely be worn down and killed after killing a large number of enemies.

However, Yagami Yoruichi was able to turn the tables and wipe out the enemy team.

However, when faced with a monster with astonishingly strong defense, Yagami Yoruichi was helpless, while Hatake Sakumo was able to cut through the enemy's defenses with his sharp swordsmanship.

He also possesses an extremely formidable method of concealment, capable of evading the detection of most sensory ninjutsu, giving him a unique advantage in assassination.

Given the right opportunity, Sakumo Hatake is fully capable of achieving something like assassinating the Shadow of the Enemy Village.

This is due to differences in fighting style and growth path, and cannot be simply summarized by strength.

Furthermore, Sakumo Hatake is one of the few strong individuals in Konoha who has enough strength to fight alongside Yoruichi Yagami without disrupting her battle rhythm.

With the two working together, it is entirely possible for them to severely injure or even kill one of the Third Raikage or the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

Even if he couldn't do this, he could at least kill some more elite jounin from the Kumo ninja.

Even among the five great ninja villages, there aren't many ninjas at the elite Jonin level in the same era.

In Konoha now, there are only about thirty or forty people who have reached this level of evaluation, and most of them are from ninja clans.

If all the elite Jonin brought by the Third Raikage were to die here, the loss would be enough to significantly weaken the Hidden Cloud Village's strength, rendering it completely unable to pose a threat to Konoha.

It will take at least ten years to recover.

Such merit would greatly enhance the reputation of Yoruichi Yagami and Sakumo Hatake in Konoha.

Upon hearing that Sakumo Hatake would be leading a team to the front lines, Yoruichi Yagami's mind immediately conjured up the idea of ​​a surprise attack.

"The first advance force to support the front lines consists of fewer than a hundred people, but all of them are senior Chunin or above, with Jonin making up half of them," said Aburame Keishin. "Among them are elites from the Hyuga, Ino-Shika-Cho, and other ninja clans. According to the village's orders, we will temporarily be under the command of Lord Hatake Sakumo until Lord Hatake Sakumo determines that the threat from Kumogakure has been eliminated, at which point our mission will be considered complete."

"I understand." Yagami Yoruichi nodded.

Such temporary conscriptions occurred frequently during wartime.

Although Yagami Yoruichi had never met him, she had heard of him.

The ninja regulations of the ninja academy also contain relevant requirements.

The mission of Yagami Yoruichi's squad does not conflict with this transfer order, and there is no need to worry about which one has higher priority.

Moreover, deep down, Yagami Yoruichi also hoped to cooperate with Hatake Sakumo and gain more credit.

"Let's rest first. Once I've recovered my chakra, I'll rejoin the main force." Yagami Yoruichi said, then closed her eyes, pretending to rest, but actually calling out the system panel in her mind.

Open the system shop and spend all the profits from this raid on the Cloud Ninja, purchasing all of them as [Attribute Forging Equipment].

This time, Kikyo stood on Yoruichi Yagami's side, and not a single Prism-grade [Attribute Forging Tool] was produced.

However, in more than a dozen raids on the Cloud Ninja fleet, more than 300 ninjas were killed in total.

Including her previous accumulations, Yoruichi Yagami has now accumulated a total of five body-building fragments with '15% constitution attribute'.

Although it is still far from 'unlimited growth'.

However, the speed at which attributes grow in cycles is already quite astonishing.

The five '15% Constitution attribute' training fragments also allowed Yoruichi Yagami's 'Constitution' attribute to surpass her 'Chakra Limit' for the first time, becoming her highest single attribute.

Yoruichi Yagami opened the system interface to check her attributes.
