Konoha teaches, then stands in the sky

This defeat came too suddenly. Even someone like Kakashi, who was paying close attention to the situation in the ninja world, did not notice any signs of it.

In his impression, the Land of Grass should have a great advantage in Konoha's military.

Since the Iwagakure troops were able to suddenly turn a huge disadvantage into an advantage, they must have some powerful means. It might have been the war that led to Mu Yue's death.

"He's still too weak now." Kakashi sighed in his heart. With their current strength, perhaps only Might Guy could barely help Mu Yue.

Even though they have been training very hard, they still have too little time to train. After all, most of them are only eleven years old, which is too old to graduate from the Ninja School in peacetime.

"I hope I can learn the Yang Seal before that day comes."

If Kakashi can master the Yang Seal, even if his other abilities do not improve at all, his actual combat power will still increase dramatically.

Shisui's face was solemn, he had a similar suspicion as Kakashi.

"The time is still too short."

Compared to Kakashi and the others, Shisui is even younger, and is not even ten years old yet.

Mu Yue did not give the ninjas much time to react and quickly said:

"Next, our mission is to support the Grass Country Ninja Force and prevent the Iwagakure Ninja Force from entering the Fire Country."

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not require Mu Yue to defeat the Iwagakure ninja troops. His requirement was to provide good defense and prevent the Iwagakure from invading the Land of Fire.

As long as Mu Yue prevents Iwagakure from breaking through the defense line and entering the Land of Fire, then he will have completed his mission.

If Mu Yue could repel the Iwagakure troops and inflict severe damage on them, that would be an extra achievement.

"Let's go!" About a minute later, Mu Yue shouted after looking at all the ninjas in the army with a serious expression.

No one raised any questions or complained. They all followed Mu Yue silently and quickly left Konoha and headed for the Land of Grass.

For a ninja, this is actually not an outrageous operation.

When there is an urgent task to be performed, we just give a task objective and start working.

This time, it can be seen as a collective emergency task for a large number of people.

Moreover, Konoha's village love education is very good, and the ninjas all have a strong sense of responsibility to protect the village.

When they heard that the Iwagakure Village might attack, many ninjas thought that they must keep the Iwagakure out of the Land of Fire and not let it have the chance to destroy Konoha.

On the way, Mu Yue looked at the information given to him by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

If Mu Yue was running at full speed, he would definitely not be able to read the information while running.

But if he were to move forward with the ninja troops, Mu Yue would have enough time to run and watch at the same time.

After all, the ninja troops' advancing speed was not fast enough for him.

"Sarutobi Hiromichi rebelled and assassinated Jiraiya, showing similar abilities to the Iwagakure assassination team." Looking at this information, Mu Yue showed a thoughtful expression.

In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke briefly, only briefly talking about the Iwagakure assassination team, and did not mention Sarutobi Hiromichi's rebellion and attack.

When I first heard Sarutobi Hiruzen talk about Mu Yue, I felt that it was White Zetsu. After looking at the detailed war intelligence, although Mu Yue was not 100% sure, there was a 98% chance that it was White Zetsu who was causing the trouble.

The ninjutsu that can quickly eliminate the aura is the Mayfly Technique. The reason why Sarutobi Hiromichi betrayed was that he was not Sarutobi Hiromichi himself, but a White Zetsu who used the technique of impersonation.

The strength of an ordinary White Zetsu is actually not that strong. If there is information, a stronger Chunin can kill White Zetsu.

What makes White Zetsu so powerful is his skill configuration. White Zetsu's skills can only be described as high-end.

The Disguise Technique is the most powerful transformation technique in the entire Naruto, which can imitate the essence of a ninja - chakra.

The Mayfly Technique is the most advanced stealth ninjutsu, which can blend with the earth, eliminate all aura and move at high speed.

The combination of these two skills makes White Zetsu the most powerful intelligence ninja in the ninja world, and also an assassin that is difficult to guard against on the battlefield.

When White Zetsu took action, Mu Yue felt that it was normal for Jiraiya to lose. The fact that White Zetsu caused trouble at the end of the third war was somewhat of a dimensionality reduction attack.

You have to know that the 80,000-strong ninja coalition in the Fourth War, which had a large number of powerful men, was overwhelmed by White Zetsu, not to mention Jiraiya's ninja troops.

"But for me, this is not a big trouble." Mu Yue thought to herself.

Mu Yue has an inconspicuous but very powerful skill, which is identification.

No matter how good White Zetsu's disguise is, everything will be exposed once the identification technique is used.

The disadvantage of the identification technique is that Mu Yue has to see it before he can use it. So far, Mu Yue has not seen Bai Jue who dares to appear in front of him.

As long as White Zetsu dares to play undercover in his ninja unit, Mu Yue will let them know what intelligence Mu Yue is.

Jiraiya's information only exists in theory, but Mu Yue really has the identification technique that can see through chakra and skills.

PS: The plot has reached a relatively critical point recently, and it takes a lot of time to revise and rewrite it. Today I will update less, 4k per chapter

Chapter 567 Counterattack Plan

Before arriving at the Land of Grass, Mu Yue used Konoha's special communication method to contact the Land of Grass ninja troops.

Out of caution, Mu Yue did not tell the Grass Country Ninja Forces the specific strength of the support forces, but directly discussed the matter of the meeting.

Jiraiya was very happy to learn that there was support, but he rejected Mu Yue's request to meet up and told Mu Yue their current situation.

After regrouping his troops, Jiraiya's ninja force still had 670 ninjas.

Jiraiya suspected that there were still unexposed spies among his ninja troops, so he broke up the large force into small teams to stop the Iwagakure troops.

After two attempts, Jiraiya confirmed that there were still spies in the ninja army, but for the time being he was unable to determine who the spies were and how many there were.

Jiraiya believes that they cannot rendezvous before finding the spy, otherwise the previous failure will be repeated.

"Commander Mu Yue, how should we respond?" Nara Suzaku asked Mu Yue.

Before asking Mu Yue, Nara Suzaku had already thought about it seriously in his mind, but could not come up with a good solution.

The best and most direct way is definitely to find the spy, but Jiraiya's ninja troops are stronger than the support ninja troops and have more outstanding talents.

Jiraiya's ninja troops haven't found the spy yet, so it may not be helpful if the reinforcements go there.

Mu Yue looked thoughtful and did not reply immediately.

It was not difficult for him to find the Bai Jue hidden in the army, it just required time and effort to identify them one by one.

Mu Yue was thinking about how to take advantage of the situation and use Bai Zetsu to trick Iwagakure.

Since White Zetsu can act as a spy for the Iwagakure forces, it means that the Iwagakure side has also been infiltrated by White Zetsu.

In this case, he could let White Zetsu know the false news and then pass it on to the Iwagakure troops, so that the Iwagakure troops would be misled by the false news.

"The ones that have arrived now are the vanguard of the support force. There are only fifty ninjas. They can meet first to discuss the next battle." Mu Yue thought for a while and said.

"Just reply like this."

"By the way, include the news about me in the vanguard troops." Mu Yue added.

Nara Suzaku and the other ninjas who were discussing the matter all looked at Mu Yue in confusion, not understanding why Mu Yue responded like that.

Before the spy is found, reunion will only expose our intelligence and lead to repeating the same mistakes.

Although Mu Yue deliberately gave false information that there were only fifty ninjas.

But what use would that be? When they actually meet up, they will be exposed anyway if they don't find the spy.

"Commander Mu Yue, do you want to take fifty ninjas to help Lord Jiraiya find the spy?" Nara Suzaku asked after thinking for a while.

Only with this as a reason, Mu Yue's reply makes sense.

Mu Yue nodded and replied:

"Yes, I have a perception ability that can sense the kindness and malice of others towards me. Although the ninjas who have bad intentions towards me are not necessarily spies, it can greatly narrow the search range."

The effect of the identification technique is too incredible, Mu Yue would never tell it to others.

Moreover, Mu Yue does have a ninjutsu that can sense good and evil, and the Observation Haki can be developed in this direction.

However, Mu Yue's Observation Haki has just reached the mastery level, and his proficiency is still low, so it does not have this effect.

Nara Suzaku was surprised. He didn't expect that Mu Yue possessed such ability.

Sensing good and evil is indeed an excellent ability to identify spies, and this is even more true for a ninja with a good reputation like Mu Yue.

If he was one of us, how could he have ill will towards someone as gentle and kind as Mu Yue for no reason?

If he was an enemy spy, he would definitely want to kill a famous genius like Mu Yue. It would be impossible for him not to have malicious intentions.

"In this case, it would be more appropriate to lead a small group of troops to meet up first." Meicun Yejuan nodded in agreement.

This will not only avoid exposing the intelligence of the support forces, but also quickly help the Grass Country Ninja Forces escape the crisis.

Moreover, fifty ninjas are a considerable force and can handle most situations.

After Jiraiya gave a positive response and agreed on a meeting place, Mu Yue called out the ninjas he had already selected.

"From now on, we are the vanguard of the support force, and the real support force has not yet arrived in the Land of Grass, do you understand?" Mu Yue reminded after gathering fifty ninjas.

"No matter who talks to you about the support troops, you must not reveal the real information except me."

White Zetsu must absorb the chakra of the corresponding ninja in order to perform the disguise technique to transform. Mu Yue is confident that his chakra will not be absorbed by White Zetsu, but he cannot guarantee whether the chakra of other ninjas will be absorbed.

Seeing Mu Yue’s serious face, the ninjas nodded seriously and wrote down everything Mu Yue said.

After explaining the precautions, Mu Yue led the ninjas to the agreed meeting place.

In order to ensure that the support troops left behind had sufficient combat effectiveness, Mu Yue took the middle and lower ninjas with him for the remaining forty-five ninjas, except for his five disciples, and left most of the upper ninjas and special upper ninjas in the support troops.

When they were about to arrive at the agreed location, Mu Yue first used his Observation Haki to perceive, then opened his Byakugan to carefully observe the surroundings. After making sure there were no problems, he took his subordinates to meet up.

In order to prevent accidents, Mu Yue did not close her eyes and kept them open.

Mu Yue now has the Yang Seal, so she has more chakra, so it doesn't matter if she uses the Byakugan to consume some chakra.

Jiraiya, Minato Namikaze and his other two disciples have arrived and are waiting at the designated location.

Seeing Mu Yue coming with his troops, Jiraiya quickly stepped forward and said:

"Iwagakure is really weird this time. Their intelligence capabilities are ridiculously strong. I don't even know how many spies there are in the army."

In order to ensure that the meeting with Mu Yue would go smoothly, Jiraiya conducted it very secretly. Not only were there very few people who knew about it, he even only brought his three disciples with him.

Now Jiraiya no longer has superstition for those family ninjas. If even a traitor can be found among the senior ninjas of the Sarutobi clan, it is not surprising if there are traitors among other families.

It’s different for his own disciples. From childhood to adulthood, Jiraiya can ensure that they have no problems.

"I've read the intelligence on the battlefield, and there are indeed many suspicious points." Mu Yue nodded, then looked at the fifty ninjas behind him.

"Except for Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Obito... and others, the rest of the ninjas will be dispersed to the surrounding areas for alert!"

Mu Yue sent all the ninjas except his disciples to guard the surrounding areas.

Although Mu Yue, who had a white eye, did not need them to be on guard, the fewer people knew about their subsequent conversation, the better.

"Uncle Toad, Teacher Minato, are you okay?" Obito couldn't help but ask.

Minato Namikaze smiled and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.

"What a joke, I'm a Sannin, this little difficulty can't hurt me. Also, it's not some Toad Uncle, it's the Toad Sage!" Jiraiya emphasized by knocking on Obito's head.

"Okay, Uncle Toad." Obito nodded unmoved in response.

In his mind, there are only the Six Paths Sage and the Mu Yue Sage.

Jiraiya:......

"Alas, Shuhei, we are so pitiful. Although we are in the same unit as Minato, it seems like we don't exist. We clearly helped with training before." Dekai sighed.

"Senior Shuping, Senior Dekai, are you injured? I can provide treatment." Nohara Lin asked softly.

"Hey, that's thanks." Dekai smiled and waved his hand. He was just complaining that the two of them had little presence and were always ignored.

Ignoring Obito who seemed to be asking for a beating, Jiraiya looked at Mu Yue.

It is normal to let subordinates stand guard around, but Jiraiya thinks Mu Yue may have something more important to say by letting almost all the subordinates stand guard.

After giving everyone on Jiraiya's side an appraisal, Mu Yue said:

"In fact, the support troops have all arrived. There are 500 ninjas besides me, including 15 jonins and 15 special jonins..."

Mu Yue first briefly explained the information about the support troops.

"Ah? Didn't they say that only the vanguard troops had arrived?"
