Pirates: I will first max out the domineering color if I am not dead

Page 642

After a while, Xia Le entered the tent.

"I am against the rescue operation. That is a large Iwagakure force, and they are fighting in the territory of the Land of Earth!"

"If we rashly send troops, it will cause unimaginable losses!"

Chapter 491 Rushing to the battlefield

Meicun Yejuan's face was solemn, and he expressed his opinion without hesitation.

But this is understandable. Fighting in a foreign country, and in an endless loess plain, is something that the Konoha ninjas have almost no experience with.

Moreover, in fact, the Konoha guard force in the northwest area is not large. This war focuses more on fighting against the Land of Lightning.

If the entire guard force was sent out to rescue a team of five, Konoha's defenses would likely collapse if the enemy made any major moves.

"Intelligence shows that Iwagakure has sent a large number of personnel to capture Nagato and his men."

"It's just a team of five people, but the enemy takes us so seriously!"

"This just shows the value of the Nagato Five. I don't believe you can't see it, Mimura!"

Fugaku said with a frown.

His fists clenched unconsciously.

His own son was now trapped in the encirclement, and his life or death was unknown. His calm appearance did not mean that his heart was calm.

"but."

Mimura wanted to say more.

But at this moment, Xia Le interrupted with a smile.

"Rescue is definitely necessary!"

"My four disciples, children of the Uchiha clan, are surrounded."

“But it doesn’t take too many people to go.”

Hearing this, Meicun Yejuan was stunned, and immediately reacted: "I will organize a rescue team immediately."

Xia Le waved his hands, still smiling.

"unnecessary!"

He slowly stood up and walked out of the tent.

"I alone am enough!"

Meicun Yejuan was stunned and just stood there in a daze.

Only after the other party left did he turn around and look at Fugaku.

"Elder Xia Le, do you really need one person?"

Fugaku frowned but said nothing.

"Faced with the large force of Iwagakure, Nagato and the others might be in trouble."

Meicun Yejuan opened his mouth again, but hesitated to speak.

Fugaku suddenly raised his head and said coldly: "I believe that Nagato and the others must be fine!"

Meicun Ye Juan was stunned for a moment, and then he said: "I will arrange a rescue team. Since you trust them and Elder Xia Le, then prepare all the response measures."

Then he explained again.

"Fugaku, I have my own considerations for stopping the entire army from entering the Land of Earth. If something goes wrong and Konoha's defenses collapse, you and I will be sinners!"

Hearing this, Fugaku's expression softened slightly: "I understand!"

Of course, Konoha cannot deploy all its troops in the enemy's territory. Even if it does so, the military strength of the two sides is not even on the same level.

Fighting in another country and defending within one's own territory are two completely different concepts.

Therefore, although Fugaku felt uncomfortable listening to Mimura Yemaki's words, he could understand them because he was also one of the commanders of this operation.

Meicun Yejuan quickly arranged a team to be responsible for the rescue and response.

Then, the two fell into silence in the tent.

"Patriarch Fugaku, Elder Xia Le is going alone?"

Finally, Meicun Yejuan still asked hesitantly.

He had heard of Xia Le's name, but he had never seen his strength. But no matter how powerful he was, he could not face all the ninjas in a country.

"If it's him, there will be no problem!"

Hearing this, Fugaku's brows relaxed and he spoke softly.

"what?"

Meicun Yejuan was stunned.

He didn't expect that the other party actually believed so much in Xia Le's strength.

"Now, the only thing I'm worried about is whether Nagato and the others can hold on before Xia Le arrives!"

Fugaku sighed.

Yes, he was not worried about Xia Le at all. As for the strength of that man, he was probably the only one in the whole village who understood him.

Xia Le, who was able to defeat and make the once legendary man retreat, can be described in four words as the strongest Uchiha: well-deserved!

"is it?"

Mimura Yemaki blinked.

He suddenly realized that perhaps he had underestimated the power of the strongest Uchiha.

No wonder when the other party proposed one person, Fugaku didn't even say a word to stop him.

Xia Le returned to the tent and tied his armor carefully before walking out.

Just as he walked out of the tent, four figures appeared in front of him, kneeling on one knee.

"Who are you?"

Xia Le frowned.

"For our compatriots trapped in the Land of Earth, we are the rescue team for this mission!"

"Master Mimura said we will follow your orders."

The leading Chunin said.

Xia Le was stunned for a moment, but without saying anything, he walked towards the northwest border.

"Since this is a mission, then follow me closely."

Hearing this, the leading Chunin looked up and immediately said, "Yes, Master Xia Le!"

The group of five quickly left the Konoha Forest and rushed into the Land of Earth area which was covered with yellow earth.

It's empty here, with only strong winds and dust. The climate and environment are almost the two extremes from Konoha.

"What are your names?"

Xia Le asked casually.

"Ikeda."

"Dajiang."

"Igawa."

"Tominaga."

The four of them gave their names one by one. Xia Le nodded slightly and said nothing more.

He was not surprised to learn that the name indicated that he was a person with no presence in Konoha.

"Three kilometers ahead, your mission will end."

After a moment, Xia Le suddenly said.

"what?"

Ikeda, the leader, looked up blankly.

"If we go forward, we will most likely face a large force from the Hidden Rock Village."

"As for you, there is a great chance that you will never come back!"

Xia Le explained.

The four of them looked slightly changed when they heard this, but soon, the leader Ikeda Chuunin raised his head and said with a calm smile: "When we accepted this mission, we didn't expect to come back alive."

Xia Le was stunned and a little surprised.

"People outside say that Elder Xia Le is different from us common people."

"I saw it today and it's true."

There was a hint of awe in the eyes of Ikeda and the other three.

Strong power may make people envious and afraid, but it cannot be exchanged for respect. However, Xia Le's unintentional concern made the four people feel very warm.

When they were on missions in the past, no one ever cared whether they came back alive or how serious their injuries were.

All the village cares about is whether the mission is completed.

"Ninjas are just tools."

"Please, Master Xia Le, use us as you wish."

Ikeda said with a smile.

The words were plain, but there was no hesitation at all.

Xia Le fell silent and looked back at the four people behind him.

Just like their names, they all looked ordinary and unremarkable. One could even see the anxiety and nervousness on the faces of the three teenagers behind Ikeda.

However, Xia Le could not see any sign of retreat in their eyes.

Ninjas are just tools! The meaning of their existence is to carry out missions!

This powerful sentence made Xia Le feel mixed emotions.

He has been in the Uchiha clan for a long time, obsessed with studying the power of this world, and created a new way to absorb natural energy.

But over the years, few people have observed or cared about the significance of the existence of ninjas in this world.

Including Nagato's three disciples, he only taught them strength and interacted with them in a gentle manner on weekdays.

As for ninjas, perhaps even his own disciples don’t have such a deep understanding of them.

"I will not use you as tools."

After a while, Xia Le spoke.

Upon hearing this, Ikeda and the other three moved their lips slightly and their eyes changed again.

After three kilometers, Xia Le suddenly stopped.

The other four also stopped and looked at him in confusion.
