Naruto's civilian cannon fodder starts with the three-body technique

Chapter 103 Dust Explosion
Ebizo even hoped that the Konoha ninjas hiding in the Nogawa Forest would come out and die.

If these Konoha ninjas could be completely wiped out, wouldn't it be possible to tear open Konoha's Shinano River left wing defense line?

In this way, they no longer have to worry about logistical supplies and retreat routes, and can fully cooperate with the main army to encircle the Konoha Ninja Army.

Even if they cannot encircle and defeat the Konoha Ninja Army at that time, as long as they completely break the Shinano River defense line on Konoha's left wing, they can at least open up the situation and even attack Konoha's logistics supply line from the left wing.

From then on, the offensive and defensive situations changed.

If the Konoha Ninja Army wants to consolidate its defense line, there is no other way except to increase troops and take back the left wing defense line of Shinano River.

In order to ensure the safety of the logistics supply line, they had no choice but to withdraw from the Shinano Plain and go to the eastern mountains of Kawanokuni to rebuild a new line of defense.

In this way, the rich Shinano Plain was exposed to the Sand Ninja's army. Even if they could not invade the inland of the Fire Country, occupying the most fertile Shinano Plain in the River Country would allow the Sand Village to have a full stomach.

Therefore, in order to achieve strategic needs, the mountain pass ahead must be taken at all costs.

As long as they take the mountain pass in front, they can enter the Shinano Plain and directly hit the Konoha Ninja Army. Even if Konoha can send reinforcements and take back the left wing defense line, they can still plunder several towns and recover a lot of blood.

However, it is not easy to take the mountain pass ahead, especially to take it quickly before the arrival of Konoha's support troops.

Although this pass is the lowest and widest one in the entire Shinano River Forest Mountain Range, the entire pass is shaped like a gourd of different sizes.

The wide part of the gourd inside is large enough to accommodate a large army of a thousand people. However, the narrow part, especially the two notches at the back, can only accommodate two people side by side.

The towering mountains on both sides of the mountain pass were like a natural moat, blocking the way of the Sand Ninja Corps.

Only this Hulu Pass can be passed quickly.

If they were not in a hurry, with the ninja's ability to climb walls and climb roofs, even if there were countless poisonous insects and miasma in the towering mountains, or even wild and unruly summoned beasts, they would not be in trouble.

But if they wanted to enter the Shinano Plain as soon as possible, they could only pass through the Hulu Pass quickly before the Konoha support troops arrived.

If the summoning beast breeding base had not been wiped out by Konoha's Anbu before, it would have been better if there were flying summoning beasts to assist at high altitudes. Now, they can only sacrifice time at any cost.

Inside Hulu Mountain Pass, all the Konoha defense zone ninjas who could come have arrived.

Maki Utane, the captain of the Shinano River Forest's third-tier mobile patrol team, directly questioned Umino Sasuke's shadow clone: ​​"Umino Sasuke, why are your troops so intact? Did they desert the battlefield?"

Baiyun Yeshan, who was standing by, seemed to see the deep meaning of Utatane Maki's words and interrupted, "Captain Utatane, the most important task now is how to resist the attack of the Sand Ninja. It's a good thing that Captain Umino was able to preserve so much combat power."

"Hmph!" Utane Maki snorted coldly, but he made his point clear. "I'm most familiar with this valley entrance. I'm the commander, and whoever agrees or disagrees will be in charge."

Obviously, Utane Maki saw that Umino Sasuke's personnel were the most intact, and was afraid that Umino Sasuke would seize power, so he took the initiative to attack.

After Utane Maki finished speaking, regardless of whether Umino Sasuke and Baiyun Hayama agreed or not, he directly exercised his commander's authority and arranged the Baiyun Battalion at the front of the mountain pass, which was the big gap at the bottom of Hulu Pass.

The Kaino Battalion is in the middle section of the canyon, and as for the Sleeping Battalion, it is euphemistically called the Mobile Support Battalion, but in fact, it is responsible for the last section of the canyon.

In other words, the Baiyun Battalion and the Kaino Battalion are at the forefront, and only after they are wiped out will it be the turn of the Dormitory Transfer Battalion.

Without waiting for Umino Sasuke and Baiyun Yeshan to answer, Utane Maki took his men and headed towards the back of the canyon.

However, Umino Sasuke did not take his men to defend the middle section of the canyon directly. Instead, he discussed with Baiyun Yeshan and decided to abandon the first line of defense and start defending from the second line of defense in the middle section.

It is always better to concentrate your strength than to defeat them one by one.

If Masaki Tsuchiya arranges things step by step, Ebizo alone may be able to break through this line of defense.

"Brothers."

Baiyun Yeshan was deeply moved and immediately promised that after he survived this and returned to Konoha, he would introduce his sister to him. Soon, Umino Sasuke's shadow clone, Baiyun Yeshan and others formed a defensive formation in the middle of the Hulu Mountain Pass.

Fortunately, Konoha had considered this situation beforehand and built a large number of defensive fortifications in advance.

"The Sand Ninja is coming in."

The Sand Ninja Corps advanced very quickly, charging all the way, but before entering Hulu Pass, they sent out an elite team to rule out whether there were any traps. Only then did they enter Hulu Pass one after another and assembled an offensive formation in the open area of ​​Hulu Valley.

"attack!"

Ebizo waved his hand, and dozens of elite Sand Ninjas prepared to release ninjutsu in coordination.

"Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

At this time, Umino Sasuke's real body, riding on the giant desert falcon Baymax, once again used harassment tactics against the Sand Ninja Corps below.

But this time, after releasing the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique, he unlocked a sealed scroll.

Then, large sacks were thrown towards the Sand Ninja Army below.

However, the Sand Ninja Corps was well prepared and released a linked wind escape technique, easily resisting Umino Sasuke's attack.

However, these large sacks thrown down were directly blown and scattered by the linked wind escape released by the Sand Ninja.

Suddenly, a large amount of flour and iron powder scattered into the entrance of Hulu Mountain.

Obviously.

All of this flour was obtained from the last time we intercepted the Sand Ninja smuggling team. As for the iron powder, it was the powder cut off when practicing the Spiral Hole Wave. In line with the principle of not wasting anything, all of it was collected and waited to be recycled and sold for money. Now it is just in time to be used.

These scattered flour and iron powders, like the fog-hiding technique, filled the entire gourd valley and were impossible to defend against.

Under the encouragement of the linked wind escape, it was scattered everywhere.

"Pooh! Pooh! Shameless people, actually using such disgusting means!"

Even the commander Ebizo was not spared and was covered in a lot of flour and iron powder.

These flour and iron powders are not very powerful, but they are extremely insulting.

"not good!"

Ebizo's heart skipped a beat and he felt something was wrong. It turned out that he finally discovered that there were a large number of detonating tags hidden in those flour bags.

Although these detonating tags were blown away by the linked wind escape technique and did not fall on the Sand Ninja Corps, and even if they exploded, they would not be able to hurt them, but it seems that there must be a deep meaning behind the actions of the Konoha Jonin.

At this time, Umino Sasuke had already ridden on Baymax and quickly moved away from this dangerous place.

"burst!"

Sasuke Umino made a tiger seal and activated the detonating talismans in the mouth of Hulu Mountain.

Rumble!
A force that shook the earth and destroyed the world erupted from the mouth of Hulu Mountain.

Even the Shinano Mountains were shaken.
