Naruto: Reshaping the Shinobi World with Sasori

Chapter 135 Targeted Elimination (Second Update)

On the border of the Land of Fire, beyond the forest.

The Konoha army arrived on the battlefield.

Hiruzen Sarutobi gazed at the shadowy forest under the night sky, his expression cold.

At this moment, the entire Konoha army behind him was on high alert, exuding a chilling aura—

The dark forest resembled a wild beast crouching on the ground, its invisible maw gaping wide, waiting for them to walk into its trap.

Without a doubt, Sarutobi knew that Sunagakure must have set up numerous traps and ambushes in the area that originally belonged to Konoha.

Even when they were making preparations along the way, there were lurking Sunagakure members who came to scout them out.

Whether it's day or night, the impact is roughly the same for a chaotic battle of this scale.

Although Sunagakure had familiarized themselves with the terrain and environment beforehand.

However, they were also aware that this forest served as their defensive stronghold.

What Konoha needs to do now is to take advantage of the fact that everyone is united in their hatred of the invading Sunagakure, and that their morale and spirit have not yet been disturbed and tested by the battlefield for a long time, and use this momentum to deliver a decisive blow in one fell swoop!

On the other side, in the trees and on the ground in the forest.

A large number of Sunagakure troops are also lying in wait.

Everyone felt the oppressive atmosphere emanating from Lin Haiwai—

Yubi stood on a tree, using his clairvoyance to peer into the Konoha army, observing the densely packed number of ninjas—

His expression was solemn.

War is imminent!

In the distance, Sarutobi slowly raised his hand.

As he moved, the faces of the Konoha army turned cold, and everyone picked up their weapons or ninja tools.

"Rush!"

-

At a single command, the entire Konoha army surged forward like a tidal wave, with each unit running across the ground in neat formation and displaying a clear battle intent.

Whoosh whoosh—

Soon, one Konoha ninja after another swarmed into the dark forest like locusts.

Seeing this, and hearing the deafening battle cries coming from the center of the Sand Village formation, Arai immediately waved his hand.

Upon receiving the order, the Sand Village ranged attack team immediately formed hand seals and simultaneously activated their escape techniques.

In an instant, a terrifying wind blast tore through a large area at the edge of the forest, snapping countless trees and sending branches and leaves flying.

The Konoha ninja who were the first to rush into the forest were instantly dealt a fatal blow.

Many people were sent flying backward, covered in blood.

However, some Konoha ninjas were able to defend or dodge in time, and under the cover of their comrades, they ventured deeper into the heart of the forest.

The damage was only to a portion of Konoha's vanguard – the entire Konoha army was far too large to be destroyed by Sunagakure's first wave of attacks.

Arai issued another order, dispersing the puppet troops into mobile squads and commencing combat.

In this relatively complex forest environment, the puppeteer's attacks become even more unpredictable.

Boom boom boom!

At the same time, the influx of Konoha people also began to trigger some traps and mechanisms that they had designed in advance.

Numerous screams echoed through the forest.

Both sides have corresponding tactical arrangements.

In an instant, the once tranquil forest became a battlefield where two armies clashed fiercely.

There was virtually no buffer period between battles; the fighting escalated almost immediately.

Flames spewed, torrents raged, wind blades crashed against the rising rocks and earth, and there was also a battle of flesh and blood and a surprise attack with tools—in the blink of an eye, all sorts of unique escape techniques blossomed in various parts of the forest.

As more and more Konoha ninjas entered the forest, the sense of mission on both sides to fight for their respective villages reached its peak.

"here we go--"

Yubi, who was not far from Arai, stretched his limbs, his expression stern.

After saying that, he disappeared from the tree in the next second.

Yubi used her eye technique to briefly observe Konoha's troop deployment and discerned the most threatening, or rather, the most damaging, deployment in the enemy army.

He should prioritize removing them!

whoosh-

Yubi was like a phantom of the night, leaping and darting through the forest with a speed that was not only unpredictable but also so fast that ordinary Konoha ninjas could hardly detect her.

Because the battlefield situation is inherently chaotic, it is easy to lose focus, and it is not easy to be constantly on guard against every hidden attack.

Along the way, Konoha ninjas who were fighting Sunagakure were killed one after another.

Yubi's fingers continuously spurted blood—each drop of blood was like a deadly bullet, capable of instantly taking down an enemy unit.

The speed at which the blood gushed out made it difficult for the Konoha personnel to defend against.

Not only was he killing enemies, but his speed was also not slowed down in the slightest. He took down these enemies as if it were nothing more than a matter of course.

"Found it."

A moment later, Yubi took his place, his eyes turning cold.

Below the tree trunk he had jumped to, a man with his eyes closed was performing some kind of ninjutsu.

Three Konoha ninjas stood around him, responsible for protecting his safety.

The group's hiding place was very well concealed.

Compared to the Konoha ninjas rushing forward nearby, they clearly had a special tactical arrangement and positioning.

It's the Mountain Clan again!

Yubi was certain that the man standing in the middle of the three had activated some kind of secret technique that could transmit messages through the mind and coordinate the Konoha forces in this area. The opponent was a small commander, the brains, who had been assigned to Konoha within a certain area of ​​the battlefield.

As soon as Yubi appeared, one of the three guards responsible for protecting the members of the mountain clan immediately looked up at him.

Then, without saying a word, he directly reached out his hand to Yubi from a distance.

As he moved, the next second—Yubi's legs were covered by a swarm of insects, which began to expand across his entire body at an astonishing speed.

Oil-loving women.

"Blood Healer Yubi!"

The other person's face was filled with astonishment and vigilance. He reacted quickly as well, and with the help of his companion, he covered the retreat of the mountain clan members who had interrupted the secret technique.

Judging from the scene of the battle, the four people were in a relatively safe area.

To put it bluntly, this is the heart of their Konoha formation.

Yubi was able to break through in such a short time.

It hasn't been discovered yet!

At this moment, for Konoha's sensory squad, they also needed to analyze all the battlefield intelligence related to the Sunagakure army and find a way to "illuminate the entire map".

Due to time constraints and the complexity of the information to be processed, the situation was quite tight.

They must have been under the most pressure at the very beginning of the battle.

It is impossible to achieve comprehensive perception coverage of the area and observation and protection of all details.

Yubi had grasped this point—which is why she preemptively struck, using her eye technique to launch a precise attack.

We need to target and eliminate certain special units within the Konoha army.

"run!"

The Aburame clan shouted loudly.

Prepare to stop Yubi.

However, facing the trio who had already taken to the air, Yubi ignored the insects crawling all over his body and clapped his hands together.

Blood Escape Supernova.

Then, countless streaks of blood-red light ripped through the dark sky.

One of them was instantly riddled with bullets.

The other person swung his blade, trying to deflect the bloody light, and at the same time pushed a member of the mountain clan, attempting to protect his teammate so he could escape first.

As the mountain tribesmen, drenched in sweat, landed on the ground, preparing to get up and continue jumping.

A shadow exuding an aura of death had appeared before him.

They took their positions faster than him.

Swish!

A ball of sharp silk thread immediately bound the target's entire body, much like the flick of a finger.

The next second, the member of the mountain clan was covered in blood and executed on the spot.

"asshole!"

Seeing this from afar, the men of the Aburame tribe spoke in low voices, but their anger was barely contained.

Faced with this sudden turn of events, they lost their ability to compete with the enemy in a single encounter and were about to be destroyed and wiped out.
