Konoha: We, the Uchiha, are ready to give up!

Before Konoha could set up their defensive formation, more than twenty Kirigakure members rushed over.

They formed hand seals and then spoke in unison.

"Water Release, Kirigakure's Technique!"

In the blink of an eye.

All the Hidden Mist ninjas exhaled thick mist from their mouths, instantly filling the entire Konoha front-line camp.

On Konoha's side, things were somewhat chaotic.

no way.

The majority of the personnel on Konoha's side this time are ninja academy students, which are essentially cannon fodder.

They hadn't even done any missions, hadn't killed any bandits or thieves, and were just thrown onto the battlefield.

Despite their grand pronouncements before they arrived, honestly, it's a miracle they didn't completely break down when faced with the brutality of the battlefield.

"Everyone, hold your ground!"

As Miyamoto Yukie shouted, she prepared to rush out and attack the group of Kirigakure members head-on.

But, before he could do anything.

One after another, elite squads of Mist Shadows emerged from the forest and charged straight in.

Upon seeing this, Miyamoto Yukie's face turned extremely grim.

Faced with this situation, he was at a loss for what to do and could only shout and rush out.

But, the next second.

A huge knife blocked his way, and then a man with a bandaged neck and sinister eyes rushed out.

"The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist?"

Miyamoto Yukie's face was grim as she gritted her teeth and said, "The Executioner's Blade, Pipa Juzo?"

Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Seven Ninja Swordsmen Gather and Easily Destroy Konoha's Frontline Camp

Miyamoto Yukie was completely dumbfounded.

Yes.

He never imagined that the first enemy he would face upon arriving at the front lines of the Hidden Mist would be...

It comes from the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, specifically the Executioner's Blade, Juzo Biwa!

This……

He really wanted to cry!

He was just an ordinary Jonin, and he was promoted based on his merits.

In terms of pure strength, he is actually inferior to Uchiha Shisui, the current Chunin of Konoha.

but why?

He just couldn't understand why he had met Pipa Juzo.

Are Konoha and Kirigakure currently in a standoff, without a real declaration of war yet?

Sending him to the front lines of the Hidden Mist was not simply a precautionary measure, was it?

only.

Before he could figure this out, several more people came out.

"Is this guy the commander-in-chief of the Konoha front lines?"

"Konoha really underestimates Kirigakure. They think they can resist us with this thing?"

"I think it's quite normal. Right now, the major clans of Konoha are cooperating with the Hokage's disciple to resist Iwagakure and Kumogakure in the Land of Rain, while Sunagakure is also holding back a portion of Konoha's main force."

"Our declaration of war from Kirigakure came suddenly, so Konoha probably can't send out its main force."

"If we had known this would happen, we wouldn't have bothered hiding. We should have taken the initiative and attacked as soon as this group arrived."

"Konoha is really getting worse year by year. With the death of Tobirama Senju, the Senju clan disappeared. A few years ago, they finally produced Konoha's White Fang, Hatake Sakumo, but I heard that he was forced to commit suicide by Konoha itself."

"Now, when facing Kirigakure, they actually send this disgusting thing."

"..."

The people hidden in the mist were discussing it amongst themselves.

Everyone's face was filled with mockery.

Yes!

Think back to the old Konoha.

In its early days, Hashirama Senju alone was able to suppress the entire ninja world, along with the equally powerful Madara Uchiha.

and after?

When Madara Uchiha left Konoha, Konoha's strength was reduced by half.

After Hashirama Senju died, Tobirama Senju relied on his past achievements to barely maintain the strength of the largest ninja village in the ninja world, and managed to survive the First Shinobi World War by fighting against four opponents.

But even so.

During the Second Shinobi World War, Konoha still showed signs of decline, and could only barely end the war by relying on his own death.

After Hiruzen Sarutobi took over, Konoha began to decline in various ways.

A few years ago, Hatake Sakumo finally emerged, and he single-handedly kept the ninja world silent.

But, who would have thought.

Before anyone could figure out how to kill this guy, Hatake Sakumo was killed by his own village.

Horse riding.

Thinking about this makes them want to laugh.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Unlike the relaxed Kirigakure, Miyamoto Yukie couldn't smile at all.

They didn't even bother to listen to the discussions about the Hidden Mist.

Just looking at the leading ninjas in front of him, he was so shocked that he trembled all over.

Loquat Juzo, Watermelon Pufferfish Demon, Kurihara Kushimaru, Mushi Jinpachi, Kurosuki Raiga...

Good guy!

Apart from Kusanagi, the user of the blunt sword Kabuto, all seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist have actually shown up.

What does this prove?

This proves that Kirigakure had already declared war on Konoha. Otherwise, how could one of Kirigakure's strongest members have appeared on the front lines of Uzushiogakure for no reason?

But damn it!

Am I, a mere ordinary Jonin of Konoha, really worth the combined efforts of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist?

What merit or ability does he possess?

At that moment, he was cursing the village to death in his heart.

Is this what they call being on guard?

What about fooling the ghost?

However, Miyamoto Yukie, who became a Jonin, was not a simple novice in power struggles.

and so.

He instantly realized that he had been abandoned.

The village sent him and this group of cannon fodder simply to buy time for the village.

He hated it!

I am utterly loyal to the village, how could the village do such a thing?

only.

Before he could figure this out, another group of people emerged from the depths of the woods.

The person in charge is none other than...

It was none other than the remaining member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, the user of the blunt sword Kabuto!

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Is it time to chat now?"
