Naruto's Dark Dawn

Chapter 425 The Battle Begins

In an unusually tacit understanding, Chiba's side and the other major ninja villages in the ninja world began to accumulate supplies at the same time and actively prepare for the battle. Finally, a month later, the war began.

"Quick, keep up!"

In the Land of Winds, Luo Sha led the team to move in one direction continuously.

It was Sand Shinobi who declared war on Chiba in the first place.

And shortly after Sand Shinobi announced the battle against Chiba, Konoha also declared war.

Even though Sarutobi, Hokage, seems a little pedantic and loves peace, he doesn't want to go to war if it's even possible.

But after all, he can still recognize the situation. With the strength and aggression shown by Qianye, even if he doesn't attack Qianye, Qianye will eventually come to trouble him. Therefore, this time it is rare Konoha, who has always advocated peace, is extremely firm and active in his attitude towards the battle against Chiba Akatsuki.

In the meeting room of Xiaoren Village, Qianye was discussing something with Xiaonan and other high-level officials.

"No surprises, just as we expected."

Long before, Chiba asserted that if Konoha and Sand Ninja launched an attack, it must start with the attack on the Land of Rain.

Judging from the map, Chiba Akatsuki Country has such a huge area. Except for the Snow Country, which absolutely no one wants to fight, there is only such a prominent part as the Rain Country. In addition, it is only bordered by Konoha and Sand Ninja.

From a strategic point of view, the fundamental purpose of Konoha and Sharen villages attacking Chiba was not for revenge, but to weaken them, because the strength shown by Chiba and the others was too strong.

In this way, Yuren Village, which accounts for almost one-third of the power of Xiaozhi Kingdom, is the first wing they want to cut off. Besides, as a nail in the front, it is impossible for them to cross Here, attack Chiba's rear.

"Master Chiba, I suggest that all the ninjas in Yuren Village return to the Land of Earth, so that it will be convenient for us to concentrate all our forces. In addition, the terrain of the Land of Earth is also conducive to defense." A middle-level Xiaoren cautiously suggested.

And this middle-level suggestion was quickly recognized by many people.

Judging from the terrain of the Land of Rain, no matter how they fight, they will easily face the unfavorable situation of being attacked from both sides, and may even be cut off from the rear. Instead of spreading their strength like this, it is better to unite and defend the Land of Earth to find another chance.

However, Chiba resolutely rejected this plan.

"I won't allow these guys to invade and occupy the Land of Rain at will."

This is not only Chiba's meaning, but also Yahiko and Konan Nagato's meaning.

As they were born in the country of rain, they would not allow this country to fall into such a situation.

Perhaps, the ninja village of the regular army may not do anything to the civilians, but a large number of miscellaneous troops such as hired ninjas and samurai who accompany them to transport supplies will inevitably plunge the country into a tragic situation. Bandits and the like who gather in chaos to wreak havoc are far more terrifying scourges than ninjas, and will inevitably bring irreparable damage to this country.

"Besides, I am sure that we will be able to exert stronger combat power on our side in the Land of Rain. Back then, I fought fiercely with Hanzo's thousands of people for several months with only a few hundred people. Familiar with the environment and geography, here, I will let them know what is the real fear."

After Chiba's words fell, the group of ninjas looked at each other for a while, and then nodded. They still believed in Chiba's wisdom and tactical ability.

In fact, being able to exert stronger combat power in the Land of Rain is the reason why Chiba really chose to place the battlefield in the Land of Rain.

Although the ability to use Nagato's ability as if they had opened the vision of God was temporarily unavailable back then, a large number of ninjutsu using rain perception in Urenin Village is still available, as well as many secret passages, underground undercurrents, and constant The various arrangements since then can definitely bring great advantages to Chiba and the others.

Soon, following Chiba's order, a large number of ninjas began to gather in the Land of Rain.

The Land of Rain, the former residence of Chiba and Yahiko Konan Nagato, and the others in Chiba were talking about something emotionally.

For this place, no matter how long it has passed, no matter where it is, they will never forget it. It has all their happiest and saddest memories.

"Is everything arranged?"

"Yeah." Xiao Nan kept reporting with a document.

"The civilians in the southeast of the Kingdom of Rain have all been evacuated. In addition, the civilians in the central part are still being evacuated."

"Very good, so we don't have to worry about it."

If it was another ninja village, it might not be such a waste of manpower and material resources to relocate civilians, but for Chiba and the others, it is natural to protect these civilians as much as possible, which is their fundamental philosophy.

"Now that you're all set, let's go."

Saying that, Chiba stood up and took the lead to walk towards the front line of the war.

"In the past, we have never been able to protect this country. We can only let this country suffer the bullying of big countries silently. This time, I will definitely teach them a bloody lesson."

And on the other side, the army of Sand Ninja and Konoha also marched towards the Land of Rain early, but it has been a week now, and they have only advanced a little.

It's not because of their lack of combat power, nor because of how strong Chiba's defense is.

In fact, Chiba's main defense with the advantage of location is still in some dangerous places in the rear, and the harassment and defense in the front distance are very weak.

However, Sha Ninja and Konoha's fear of Chiba is really unbearable.

Chiba's water attack in the past wiped out Hanzo's [-] Urenin army, and it is still talked about by the ninja world.

And then an avalanche drowned the five thousand main forces of the Wunin Iwanin coalition army, completely maiming them. This is a lesson of blood.

Therefore, they moved forward cautiously, even if it took a lot of time, they had to investigate as much as possible to ensure absolute safety, and sent a large number of sensory ninjas to explore the way every short distance, for fear of being overshadowed by Chiba. up.

In this way, there were only two days away, and they had to run for more than a week and still hadn't reached the destination.

Finally, after spending a long time investigating the dangers, the armies of Shinobi and Konoha arrived at Chiba's defense line at the same time, and the real battle was about to begin.
