Naruto: Starting from the Uchiha and Senju bloodlines

Orochimaru announced the order to retreat.

The Konoha ninjas who are now fighting in Yugakure Village are fighting and retreating, all the way to the gate of Yugakure Village.

Orochimaru glanced at the remaining Konoha ninjas and frowned slightly.

Before we came, there were probably less than a hundred people, about ninety.

At a glance, including the injured ninjas, there are only forty people left.

Although this surprise attack on Tangyin Village was about to succeed, the price they paid was quite heavy.

This operation is only one step away from success, and that is Kuroiwa Tatsuji's neutrality.

Jiraiya, who was also covered in blood, walked up to Orochimaru and asked, "Orochimaru, what about that old man? Did he agree?"

"I don't know, but no matter what, we should retreat. We can't continue fighting."

Jiraiya nodded seriously, it was true that they couldn't fight any further.

Orochimaru believed that Kuroiwa Tatsuji would definitely agree to his proposal.

If you don't agree, then Yuyin Village will no longer need to exist.

Orochimaru announced, "Wait here for five minutes, hold here and wait for the rest of our companions to join us. After five minutes, no matter what happens, we will retreat!"

Time is passing by every second.

The ninjas stationed here, including Orochimaru and Jiraiya, all released ninjutsu towards the Hidden Tang Village to prevent the Cloud Ninja and the Tang Ninja from approaching.

The most active person here now is Minato Namikaze.

Relying on his mobility, Minato Namikaze kept going back and forth, and he was able to rescue a Konoha ninja every time he went back and forth.

Minato Namikaze is now extremely tired.

But he still held on, thinking that he could save as many people as possible.

Just when Minato Namikaze was about to go in again to rescue people, Jiraiya stopped him.

"Alright Minato, you've done the best you can. Don't go any further. We're going to retreat soon. You've reached your limit."

Namikaze Minato pleaded, "Teacher Jiraiya, there is still some time, please let me go one more time."

Jiraiya shook his head, "You can't go any further. Your speed has slowed down a lot. Haven't you noticed? If you go again, you will be in danger. Besides, this little time is not enough for you to save another person. If Orochimaru says five minutes, it means five minutes. He will not stay for you for even one more second."

Moreover, up to now, those who should have evacuated have already evacuated, and those who have not evacuated..."

Jiraiya didn't continue talking, but his meaning was clear: the situation was very bad.

Minato Namikaze lowered his head slightly and stopped talking.

The time is up, and Orochimaru immediately said: "Retreat now, and place detonating tags on the way back! Go!"

The Konoha ninjas currently gathered here retreated together.

The retreat went smoothly, with almost no hindrance from the Cloud Ninjas.

It was almost noon when we returned to the base.

Qianyu, who was seriously overdrawn, had returned to his tent to rest.

Others who need to heal should also heal their wounds or rest.

Orochimaru and Jiraiya didn't rest either, as it was a busy time.

Orochimaru asked, "Jiraiya, have you finished counting? How many ninjas do we have left?"

Jiraiya reported, "There are only 43 ninjas left in total, and only 32 ninjas are still able to fight in the short term."

Orochimaru's expression was somewhat serious: "We need to ask Konoha for help now. At least 60 ninjas are needed so that we can hold the front after we advance."

Jiraiya frowned and said, "Orochimaru, do you want to advance the front right away? Isn't that too hasty? Should we wait for reinforcements to arrive before advancing?"

Orochimaru looked at the sand table and said without raising his head: "We must advance the front line as soon as possible. Otherwise, when they react, our plan to advance the front line will be hindered. Then this surprise attack on Yuyin Village will become meaningless, and the sacrificed ninjas will be in vain."

Jiraiya sighed and said, "I understand. I will follow up on this matter immediately. So how far do we want to push the front line?"

Orochimaru picked up the flag of Konoha from the sand table and placed it on a spot on the sand table: "At least ten kilometers!"

Jiraiya asked in surprise, "Is it so far? Can we defend it?"

Orochimaru said very calmly: "With such a small number of people, we can't hold it. Because we can't hold it, we have to push the front line further."

Jiraiya was very confused: "Why do we push the front further when we know we can't hold it?"

Orochimaru explained: "As I said before, we need to have some room. The ninjas supporting Konoha will not be able to reach Yuyin Village in one or two days. If we advance the front line very conservatively for a distance, if the Cloud Ninjas attack us, we will have no choice but to retreat here again.

But if we push the front line farther from the beginning, fight and retreat, and wait for Konoha's support to arrive, then we can hold the front line at our current position."

Jiraiya understood Orochimaru's explanation and exclaimed, "Orochimaru, you really have a good brain. If it was you who came to the Land of Hot Springs, you might not be in this situation now."

Orochimaru said bluntly: "It's not a possibility, it's a certainty, Jiraiya, you are too conservative. War is like two beasts biting each other. As long as one side shows signs of weakness, the other side will definitely bite you tightly until death."

Jiraiya sat on the chair and said, "I don't want to be so conservative, but if I were to attack recklessly like you, it would be too difficult for me. By the way, what is the situation on other fronts in Konoha?"

Orochimaru replied, "The Rock and Sand Ninja fronts are OK. The problem now is that the Hidden Mist Village may also join the battle. Apart from that, the Cloud Ninja in the Land of Hot Springs is too troublesome at the moment, so the teacher sent me to the Land of Hot Springs for support."

Jiraiya sighed and said, "It has only been a few years since the Second Ninja World War ended, and I didn't expect another war. Wouldn't it be good for everyone to live in peace in the Ninja World?"

Orochimaru's snake eyes glanced at Jiraiya: "Jiraiya, you are still so naive."

Jiraiya smiled and said, "Sometimes it's okay to be a little naive. It's too tiring to live as clearly as you do. By the way, how is your disciple? In addition to the injured me and Nawaki you carried on your back during World War II, it seems that you only carried that kid Chiba."

Hearing the name of Nawaki, Orochimaru's pupils shrank, and then he calmly replied: "Chiba was slightly injured, his body was overdrawn, and there is nothing serious."
