Naruto: Reshaping the Shinobi World with Sasori

Chapter 153 Rescue

When Yubi was conducting research on the Uchiha clan.

The armies of Sunagakure and Konoha have clashed for the second time since the first battle.

Upon hearing that Uchiha Himeki and the others had been taken away by Yubi, the Konoha commander knew that it was impossible not to be anxious. He immediately sent word back to the village and summoned all the leaders in the army to begin deploying offensive tactics.

They can no longer adopt a defensive strategy in Konoha.

There was no way to delay and wait for the village's reply—because every second that was delayed would make the situation of Uchiha Himeki and the others even more dangerous.

Especially when Minato pointed out that the two Uchiha clan members who died had their eyes gouged out, combined with Yubi's identity as a medical ninja, it inevitably led to speculation.

In any case, we must force Sunagakure to hand over the five surviving members and the two pairs of Uchiha clan eyes.

This time, both sides mobilized almost their entire military forces.

Within the territory of the land of rivers, the two armies clashed on the plains of the war zone's isolation zone.

With no complex terrain, limited time, and a limited range of tactics, this battle was purely a head-on clash.

From the air, the fighting was particularly fierce, with explosions and shouts of battle deafening.

The rate of casualties on the field was no less than that of the first battle between the two armies, and perhaps even faster.

"Didn't you find Yubi?"

As a commander, he too fought bloody battles on the battlefield.

At that moment, an intelligence ninja flashed in front of him, conveying information from the sensory squad's reconnaissance of key enemy targets.

Upon learning that the Blood Doctor Yubi was not there, He Ren's heart skipped a beat.

Oops!

Could it be that—

He had a well-thought-out plan—to use a large-scale offensive to coerce Yubi, the Blood Doctor, into participating in the war. After drawing out all of Sunagakure's main fighting force, he would then have Minato lead the Hyuga clan's branch family members to secretly infiltrate Sunagakure's base and search for a few surviving members of the Uchiha clan.

The Byakugan of the Hyuga clan can quickly locate several Uchiha clan members in the Sunagakure camp.

Reducing the time required to execute a water gate mission can also significantly reduce the danger.

It should be noted that in the first battle, although Konoha was severely injured by Sunagakure, on the surface, at least they had won.

Moreover, recently, the Sand Village's attack teams have suffered a series of defeats at the hands of Konoha.

This time, the battlefield environment is relatively simple, no longer a complex forest landscape, and it's daytime.

Even without the Hokage in charge, if Sunagakure wants to face Konoha head-on, Yubi, as one of their top combatants, should theoretically have to make an appearance to have any chance of winning.

But to everyone's surprise—Yubi didn't come!

"Quickly send a team to meet up with Minato and the other two."

He realized what was happening and immediately said...

"Yes."

The intelligence ninja slipped away.

boom!

Just after giving instructions here, Kazuto saw the Konoha squad in the distance, many of their troops having suffered heavy losses.

Many people were even thrown into the air.

"That is—"

The man's pupils contracted.

He saw a red-robed puppet suspended in mid-air, controlled by a large number of chakra threads.

What made him even more furious was that he saw a familiar figure among them.

Inuzuka Tsurugi and Yamanaka Inoichi.

They, the people of Konoha, became members of Sasori's puppet army.

As the "General of Sunagakure," Sasori of the Red Sand was now a one-man army, controlling terrifying puppets to break through Konoha's lines and create an opening for the Sunagakure forces behind him.

In that moment of distraction, the suspended puppets all changed, revealing their mechanisms.

Then, countless books, as dense as a dark cloud, fell from the sky like a rain curtain.

"Get out of the way!"

He shouted loudly at someone.

He jumped away immediately.

He discovered that the Konoha soldiers who had been stabbed by the Thousand Needles quickly lost their fighting ability and collapsed to the ground.

It's obvious that he was poisoned.

"The poisonous blood of Yubi, the Blood Healer!"

The person's expression changed drastically.

After the first battle, when Konoha was recovering the bodies of their comrades, they studied some of the remains of those who died from Yubi's Blood Release Ninjutsu—and some of the bodies were even sent back to the village.

Therefore, as the commander, Kazuto also had some understanding of the highly toxic components contained in Yubi's blood.

To his astonishment, even though Yubi wasn't on the battlefield and lacked him as her controller, her pure blood could still work in tandem with Sasori's puppets to unleash terrifying lethality.

This shows that the toxicity in Yubi's blood is not due to the application of bloodline ninjutsu, but rather to her innate physical differences.

"Damn it!"

"Retreat!"

Looking towards the scorpion's rear, the puppeteers following closely behind shouted.

If Scorpion's puppets can be imbued with this venom, then the puppets controlled by other puppeteers are very likely to be the same.

Sunagakure—they actually had this trick up their sleeve?!

On the other side, Minato Namikaze, Irie Hyuga, and the sensory ninja Horikawa formed a three-person team.

They are bypassing the battlefield and heading towards the troop base in the Sunagakure war zone.

Minato was fully aware of the situation within the Sunagakure battlefield.

Because he had already infiltrated the area once before, he had spent a long time operating alone in the Sand Village war zone in order to find out the location of the hidden Sand Village's drug resources. He had a certain understanding of the various routes and the location of the Sand Village's defensive strongholds.

Under his leadership, the three of them could reach the camp of the Sunagakure army with the fastest efficiency while avoiding danger.

Not to mention, one of the three is a member of the Hyuga clan.

It can provide early warnings of any slight disturbance.

"arrive."

-

After a while, the three of them hid in a grove of trees outside the Sunagakure camp.

The Sand Village's camp was located on a high slope ahead.

This was a location deliberately chosen by Sunagakure, easy to defend and difficult to attack, with excellent visibility and few obstructions, allowing for a clear view of the surrounding area at any time.

Hyuga Irie immediately activated her Byakugan.

The skin around his eyes bulged with vein-like blood vessels, and his gaze was fixed on the Sand Village's base.

The location where they stayed was specially chosen by Minato.

Although they were standing at a low level and some protruding ground obstructed their view, this was not a problem for Baiyan.

"Found it—"

Soon, Irie, with his long hair, spoke in a deep voice.

In his field of vision, he saw several familiar figures gathered in a tent.

The group remained inactive, seemingly restricted in their movements.

Irie immediately reported his location.

"Medical team."

Upon hearing this, Minato's expression changed.

That was the location of the troops managed by Blood Doctor Yubi.

"They're not unconscious or disoriented. I can see their chakra fluctuations, which is a bit strange—" Irie frowned.

The presence of chakra indicates that the Uchiha members are in a state of combat.

Most likely, they've had their eyes opened.

But this is somewhat different from what they experienced as prisoners of war.

The five members of the Uchiha clan are now more likely to be in a state of unconsciousness or imprisonment—or even death.

However, no matter what, at least the person is still alive.

"Please describe the distribution of personnel within the base."

Upon hearing this, Minato also felt a sense of unease.

But time was of the essence, and he couldn't think about that right now; saving lives was the priority.

Irie nodded, and Jiguang surveyed the situation within the camp before slowly speaking.
