Qian He raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Is he preparing to sacrifice himself?

"Don't worry, leave the rest to me!"

Qianhe shook his head and said.

"The other side has a large number of people, and we can no longer exert our strength. You are useless here!"

Hinata Hizashi was immediately furious. When they first met, he thought that this Uchiha boy was quite sensible, knew how to obey orders, and did not have the arrogance of the Uchiha clan.

But now it seems that this young man is simply too arrogant.

They were led by ten jonin, and a total of ten teams all suffered losses at the hands of the other side.

You are useless alone!

"No matter how many people there are, they are still not even one-tenth of the Kusano Shinobi!"

“It’s just a small matter!”

Chiga was too lazy to argue with Hyuga Hizashi and the others. He formed a seal with his hands and a shadow clone appeared beside him.

The shadow clone began to form seals without any need for Qianhe's command.

"Fire Escape·The Great Fire Extinguishes!"

Qianhe's real body shouted while forming seals with his hands, and suddenly a ball of fire came out of his mouth.

Flames like a vast ocean gathered together and formed a large sea of ​​fire between the Sand Ninjas and the Konoha Ninjas.

The scorching flames not only burned the trees to ashes.

At the same time, the shadow clone also completed the seal and shouted: "Wind Style: Suppress Harm!"

The shadow clone began to spit out high-pressure wind balls from his mouth. These wind balls were already burning with flames when they passed over the sea of ​​fire.

The swirling flame storm exploded instantly where it touched the Sand Ninja.

Chapter 154 Arrival at the Headquarters

The flame wind ball formed by the combination of wind ball and flame is like a cannonball.

They cut through the darkness with dazzling flames and roared out.

The flaming wind ball exploded among the Sand Ninjas, creating huge waves of scorching hot air, and throwing the surrounding dirt and rubble high into the air.

Boom boom boom.

Immediately afterwards, explosions rang out one after another, and the entire battlefield seemed to be on fire.

The fire lit up the sky, turning night into day.

Although some of the Sand Ninjas who dodged were not hit directly by the wind balls, the flames from the explosion of the wind balls attached to their bodies.

The extremely high temperature burned the Sand Ninja into a charred corpse as soon as it came into contact with it.

The battlefield was filled with explosions and the screams of Sand Ninjas.

Two B-level ninjutsu, plus Chiga's mastery of fire and wind jutsu, combined with a large amount of chakra, had an outstanding effect. The Sand Ninjas only lasted for a minute before being wiped out.

More than thirty Sand Ninjas died tragically at the hands of Chiga.

The battlefield suddenly became quiet, and the night breeze blew by, bringing with it the smell of meat, making Hinata Hizashi, Inuzuka Susumu and others jump with fear.

"Amazing!"

"Is this the genius of the Uchiha clan?"

"I knew he knew the Flying Thunder God Technique, but I didn't expect he would be so strong in ninjutsu."

"Are you OK?"

Hinata Hizashi asked, although Chiga only released one wind jutsu and one fire jutsu, the amount of chakra consumed to create such an effect is incalculable.

He estimated that in order to achieve this effect with these two ninjutsu combined, at least all the chakra in his body would have to be consumed.

"I'm fine!"

Qian He turned his head and said, "It's just that the attack was a bit heavy, leaving no one alive. There is no way to know why they appeared from the back."

"This issue is not our responsibility. Just report it to Lady Tsunade and the Anbu ninja will follow up."

Hinata Hizashi said that they thought they would all sacrifice themselves to buy time for the logistics troops.

Now that we have annihilated the enemy, it is a blessing and a great achievement.

Hinata Hizashi stood up shakily, and then said: "Let's go back. Fortunately, most of our team this time are medical ninjas, and they should be able to cure the poison for us!"

Upon hearing this, Qianhe didn't say much, but just helped Hinata Hizashi up and walked towards the camp.

When they returned to the camp, they saw that the people who came back were all their own ninjas, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, most of them are medical ninjas and are not strong in combat.

If the Sand Ninja rushed over, it would be like a wolf among a flock of sheep.

"Medical team, come and analyze the poison!"

Since the Sand Ninjas used many different poisons, Chiga and many medical ninjas worked for most of the night to extract the toxins from all the poisoned ninjas.

After that, configuring the antidote took only a little time.

The difficulty of detoxification lies in the process of analyzing the toxins. If one link goes wrong, the prepared antidote will be useless.

After receiving treatment, these poisoned ninjas quickly stood up again with full energy and felt they could fight again.

But then he looked at Qianhe who seemed fine, and realized that his ten shots were not as powerful as the opponent's one, so he suddenly felt that it was meaningless.

When all matters were settled, everyone rested again, but the number of ninjas responsible for night watch was doubled, and the scope was also doubled.

When the first rays of sunlight shone on the camp in the early morning, the assembly call sounded.

Everyone then got up, packed their luggage and continued on their journey.

Due to the night attack last night, the large force remained highly vigilant while marching, so the speed was a bit slower than before.

"signal!"

Fifty kilometers away from the headquarters, several ninjas in black robes blocked the way of the large army.

This is already within the alert range of the Konoha Command. From here on, such inspection ninjas will appear every ten kilometers.

Upon seeing this, Hyuga Hizashi did not directly respond to the ninja wearing the Konoha forehead protector, but instead ordered the troops to be on alert.

Although he knew that the other party could not be a Sand Ninja, he had to act carefully so that he could survive to the end.

After doing all this, he made a few gestures to the man, and after seeing Hinata Hizashi's gestures, the other party also made several different gestures.

The two were checking the code, and when the code was correct, Hinata Hizashi took out a scroll from his arms and handed it to the other party.

The leading ninja on the opposite side opened it and read it carefully, then nodded to his subordinates, handed the scroll back to Hinata Hizashi, and led his troops over.

In this way, Qianhe and others passed through layer after layer of checkpoints and slowly arrived at the command center.

As to why the Sand Ninja appeared behind Konoha, this matter still needs to be reported to Tsunade.

Hyuga Hizashi and his group of senior ninjas also had to hand over the supplies, and Chiga was originally going to look for Tsunade.

So they handed the report on the attack on the logistics troops to Qianhe.

Ever since Qianhe rescued them, they have already acknowledged Qianhe's status. If they were not too young, they would have wanted to call Qianhe "Adult".

Along the way, Team Qianhe encountered many hidden gazes.

However, after confirming the identities of Qianhe and his group, he quickly shifted his attention.

Arriving at the command center, before Chiga could say anything, Tsunade inside said, "Come in!"

When Qianhe walked in, she found Tsunade sitting in the center, holding a battle map in her hand, and a young man standing next to her.

"Tsunade-sama!"

After Qianhe's team went in, they all shouted.

Upon hearing this, Tsunade raised her head and glanced at Shizune before looking at Chiha.

"Qianhe, you came here with the logistics team, right? Did you encounter any emergencies on the way?"

Upon hearing this, Qian He said bluntly: "Lady Tsunade, three days ago, our logistics team was attacked by the Sand Ninja. The enemy had a total of 15 complete teams with new types of poison. At present, the enemy has been annihilated by us! The detailed report will be submitted by Captain Hizashi later!"

"Fifteen Sand Ninja teams, that's a lot!"

Tsunade frowned slightly, then stood up, looked at the sand table in front of her, and said to Qianhe: "On this sand table, point out the place where you were attacked."

Qianhe took a few steps forward, looked at the sand table, then pointed to a certain location and said to Tsunade: "It's here."

"Why is it here?"

Tsunade took a look and muttered to herself in some surprise.

After arriving at the front line, Tsunade did not rush to regain the lost territory, but built fortifications fifty miles away from the Sand Ninja. During this period, five hundred ninjas were dispatched to clear out all the Sand Ninjas remaining within this line.

The logistics troops' forward route is among these.

Therefore, she couldn't understand why Chiga and the others were attacked. Even if there were some who slipped through the net, there shouldn't be so many Sand Ninjas.

Chapter 155 Frontline Situation

As the saying goes, big breasts mean no brains. Tsunade thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. She couldn't help but said to a young man who had been silent:

"Hey, you with the meatball head, come and take a look, why are there so many Sand Ninjas here!"

The young man was wearing a green vest and looked very much like Nara Shikamaru, one of the Twelve Young Strongmen. Chiga didn't even need to guess to determine that this man was Shikamaru's father, Nara Shikaku.

Nara Shikaku helplessly corrected again: "Lady Tsunade, my name is Nara Shikaku, not a bun!"

Tsunade glared, "Stop talking nonsense!"

Nara Shikaku: “.”

Qianhe looked at Nara Shikaku with sympathy. It was really unfair for you to follow this woman. She was too lazy to even know her name.

It seems that Sarutobi Hiruzen not only equipped Tsunade with the combat power of Hatake Sakumo, but also brought in a staff officer.

Nara Shikaku didn't dare to compete with Tsunade anymore. He walked over and observed the location that Chiga pointed to. After a moment of silence, he said, "Lady Tsunade, I was negligent!"

Tsunade waved her hand nonchalantly and said, "Speak more carefully. I don't have time to listen to your apology."

"Before Konoha Village was established, the territory of the Fire Country was not so large. This location was once the border of the Fire Country."

Nara Shikaku pointed upwards at the position that Chiga had just pointed at and continued:

"After the establishment of Konoha Village, with the efforts of our Konoha ninjas, the territory of the Land of Fire was gradually expanded to its current state, and the base originally built at this location was abolished because it was too far from the border."

Tsunade's eyes narrowed when she heard this: "You mean, when we were clearing out the Sand Ninja, we neglected this place, so the logistics team accidentally encountered these Sand Ninja hiding there?"

Nara Shikaku shook his head, looked directly at Tsunade, and said in a deep voice: "No, I don't agree with this. The Sand Ninja's attack was very purposeful, as if they were specifically targeting the logistics troops this time. It's just that they didn't expect the ninjas who followed them to protect them to be so powerful."

Having said that, Nara Shikaku couldn't help but look at Qianhe.

From Qianhe's simple description, he already knew that the logistics troops were able to survive thanks to this young man.

"I understand!"

Tsunade also reacted after being reminded by Nara Shikaku.

The attack on the logistics troops was definitely premeditated.

Only Tsunade's command center and Konoha's top brass knew the logistics team's route, which meant that there was a spy in the command center.

After thinking for a while, Tsunade said, "Let the Anbu handle this matter. Let the Yamanaka clan cooperate to handle it. Remember, it must be done in secret."

"Lady Tsunade, please don't worry." Nara Shikaku answered solemnly after hearing this.

Tsunade nodded in satisfaction, and then continued:

"Okay, let's talk about the current battle situation. After this short period of fighting, we have already consolidated our defense line and prevented the Sand Ninja from making any further advances. This first step can be said to have been completed, so next we will begin our counterattack!"

Hearing this, Nara Shikaku glanced at the Chiga team nearby and discussed whether this team should stay away from this kind of issue.

But seeing that Tsunade didn't mind at all, he didn't say anything else.

Seeing Tsunade already on the sand table, preparing to send a large force to the front line, he immediately said: "Tsunade-sama, forgive me for being blunt, I don't think it's time to fight back yet!"

“Tell me your reasons!”
