Water bears at the beginning, wet bone forest eating old people

"Break!"

Tsunade woke up from her sleep and sat up in bed.

"Tsunade."

Jiraiya sat beside the bed.

"You're awake!"

"Huh... Jiraiya, how long have I been unconscious..."

"Hahaha, it wasn't long, less than five hours. If you ask me, you should sleep a little longer~"

Jiraiya stroked his spiky head and said with a smile.

Tsunade rubbed her forehead with a slight headache.

"No, Konoha has suffered too much loss. Once I fall, the loss will be irreparable."

She stood up by the bed, swayed her body and walked down from the bed.

Jiraiya wanted to support her, but his hands were only halfway stretched out, and he only supported Tsunade in mid-air without actually touching her.

"How many casualties have there been?"

"After you fainted, about forty more were sent back."

Jiraiya also felt a little heavy.

"Take me there."

"Ugh......"

Jiraiya had no idea what to say and led Tsunade out of the simple tent.

Seeing Tsunade busy again in the simple ward, Jiraiya couldn't help but grin, smiled to himself, and then rushed out of the camp.

He heard the sound of "break".

......

"Aburame, the eastern part is in your hands. You must not let the Rain Ninja get to the front of the camp. Always ask the Hinata for help. Do you understand?"

"Yes! Lord Orochimaru!"

Orochimaru had a cold face and continued to give orders and dispatch things from the high ground at the front of the camp.

The situation on the battlefield is extremely complex. Any advance or retreat in any direction or position must be controlled by Orochimaru at the first moment, under the premise of smooth intelligence.

Every slight change may lead to the collapse or reversal of the battle situation, so we cannot be careless at all.

"Orochimaru! Why haven't you called me out yet? I may be your ace, but the situation is already critical!"

Mitarai Toumaru stood behind Orochimaru, looking at the map in Orochimaru's hand.

Although he couldn't understand the cryptic routes and dispatches on the map, he knew that with so many lines constantly crossing, stagnating, and being erased, the battle situation must be bleak.

Orochimaru looked back at Mitarai Toumaru, and the coldness in his eyes almost scared him.

"Hey, hey! You don't have to be like this. I just want to help out, okay?"

Mitarai Toumaru muttered hurriedly and took two steps back.

"Less ink!"

Orochimaru impatiently interrupted Mitarai Toumaru's request for a fight. This guy had no idea how much he was worth. With his three-legged cat skills, how could he kill people when fighting against the Rain Ninja? Would he make the other side laugh to death?

He's already a Chunin, and has accumulated several years of experience, but the only ninjutsu he's good at is the half-baked Dragon Fire Jutsu. Apart from the Dragon Fire Jutsu, the only ninjutsu he knows is the Three Body Jutsu. For a ninja like this, wouldn't it be a complete loss if he goes up there?

If it weren't for the fact that this guy still had some old feelings for him, Orochimaru would have thrown him out as cannon fodder long ago. He is still hesitating here.

Ignoring Toumaru behind him, Orochimaru looked at the map in his palm, trying to find the location of the local commander from the Rain Ninja's dispatch.

Hanzo is not the commander of the Rain Ninja. After fighting for so long, Orochimaru had already figured it out.

Moreover, the Rain Ninjas did not unilaterally fight against Konoha, they were also fighting against the Sand Ninjas from the Wind Country.

Hanzo is currently staying awake with that old man Chiyo on the other side. Who is the commander on this battlefield?

boom--

Just as Orochimaru was thinking carefully, there was a sudden explosion outside the camp, which scared Mitarai Toumaru behind him.

“What…what’s going on!?”

Seeing that Orochimaru was still staring at the map motionlessly, Mitarai Toumaru couldn't help feeling anxious. They rushed out of the tent and looked in the direction where the explosion came from.

A cloud of smoke?

That’s not right. Shouldn’t the smoke after the explosion dissipate naturally quickly?

The rolling smoke seemed to be alive and slowly rolled towards the tent. Mitarai Toumaru intuitively felt that something was wrong with the smoke!

"Orochimaru!"

He rushed into the tent.

"Something's wrong outside, let's retreat first!"

Orochimaru was still staring at the map, without any movement, and ignored Mitarai Toumaru's call.

Mitarai Toumaru gritted his teeth and rushed out of the tent again.

He rushed forward to the edge of the high ground outside the tent, looked at the smoke that was about to spread to the high ground under his feet, and quickly formed seals with his hands.

"Fire Style! Dragon Fire Technique!!!"

call--

A column of fire shot out instantly, but the situation of blowing away the thick smoke as he had imagined did not occur.

There was no explosion when the flames came into contact with the smoke.

The smoke was like a huge monster that was hungry and would eat anything. It rolled inwards and swallowed up all of his dragon fire technique. The smoke seemed invisible, but chakra was rolling freely in it.

"Wha...what!?"

This scene stunned Yutarai. He didn't expect the smoke to be so extraordinary. What on earth is this thing?

Mitarai Toumaru quickly looked around. Where were the Konoha ninjas?! Where had they all gone?

This is the front of the camp. There should be ninja guards here, but why is there no sound at all?

click -

A small but clear sound reached Mitarai Toumaru's ears.

What's going on?

Mitarai Toumaru was like a frightened rabbit, standing timidly beside the high ground, but he was unwilling to take another step back.

Behind him was the command tent where Orochimaru was.

Not to mention that Orochimaru is his best friend, just because Orochimaru is the commander-in-chief and leader of Konoha, he cannot give up the space of his tent.

He shouted sharply into the smoke:

"Don't underestimate the ninjas of Konoha! Lord Mitarai Toumaru is not to be trifled with!"

"Dragon Fire Technique!"

Mitarai Toumaru gritted his teeth and used ninjutsu again in defiance of the evil. This time, a column of fire roared out, stronger and faster than the previous Dragon Fire Technique.

Unfortunately, the pillar of fire sank into the smoke without making any sound, as if it had been swallowed by a bottomless pit.

"Oops......"

Mitarai Toumaru thought to himself that something was wrong. The guards might have been in trouble, and now he was probably the only one who could stand in front of the tent.

How did the enemy find this place?

Mitarai Toumaru couldn't think that far. He only knew that even if he died now, he had to wake up Orochimaru who was sleeping in the map for some unknown reason and tell him to run away!

"Orochimaru!! I want to challenge you!!!"

"what!!"

Mitarai Toumaru roared suddenly. In his opinion, this sentence should be able to wake Orochimaru up.

But after he roared, he found that the golden color in front of him had changed.

In a moment of distraction, I felt a slight headache.

"Hiss—wh...what's going on?"

"fool..."

Mitarai Toumaru heard Orochimaru's voice and found himself lying at the door of the tent with Orochimaru's back in front of him.

what happened?

Mitarai Toumaru looked inside the tent behind him. There was no sign of Orochimaru in front of the table with the map. Instead, outside the tent, Orochimaru was standing on the edge of the height, looking at the thick fog rolling in from the distance. The guarding ninjas stood in a row beside Orochimaru, and from time to time some of them turned their heads to look at him curiously.

The meaning in the eyes seems to be.

What's this guy up to? How could he even fall for such a low-level illusion?

Just when Mitarai Toumaru came to his senses and realized that he had fallen into an illusion, Orochimaru's somewhat gloomy voice came over.

"What did you just shout? Do you want to challenge me again?"
