Konoha's Sea of ​​Fire

First fighting Hyuga Tokuma, and now Hyuga Neji, Lanhua, who was controlled by chakra threads, couldn't help but have a look of despair in his eyes.

"Captain, kill me"

Hyuga Neji turned a deaf ear. Although he and Lanhua had not known each other for a long time, how could he give up on him so easily?

"white eyes"

嗡

Powerful chakra instantly poured into Byakugan, causing the veins near his eye sockets to stand out, like ferocious tree roots about to burst out of the ground.

Under Byakugan's powerful vision, he could clearly see the chakra line connecting the Red Sand Scorpion and Lanhua.

As long as these chakra lines are cut off, he can be saved.

The next moment, Hyuga Neji and Lanhua collided in the air.

"Thirty-Six Palms of Soft Fist and Eight Trigrams"

Hyuga Neji quickly waved his palm, and the palm shadow filled the sky instantly enveloped Lanhua, not only disintegrating all his offensive, but also cutting off the chakra lines on his body.

砰

Lan Hua fell to the ground and stood up in surprise after half a minute: "I'm saved."

At the same time, Hyuga Neji continued to rush towards the Red Sand Scorpion without stopping.

"You guys hurry up, I'll cut off the queen," Neji shouted to Lan Hua and Aburame Muta behind him without looking back.

As for Hyuga Tokuma, after one of his arms was cut off, his combat power was greatly reduced, and he might not be able to escape.

"Are you looking down on me?"

Scorpion waved his right hand, and several chakra lines shot to Hyuga Tokuma next to him instantly, controlling him with the puppet technique, but the next moment, Hyuga Neji had appeared in front of him, and pointed a finger on Scorpion's right shoulder.

The chakra in Neji's body instantly poured out like a torrent, rushing into Scorpion's body, and instantly smashed Scorpion's right arm into pieces.

But then Neji's expression changed slightly.

"What a pity. This kind of injury is meaningless to us." Xia chuckled. The next moment, the broken right arm seemed to go back in time and recovered in an instant. Then the fingers of his right hand continued to beat, and the chakra line was offline. Hinata Tokuma followed in Arashi's footsteps, and couldn't help but take out a kunai and rush towards Neji.

At this moment, more than a dozen black wolf smoke came silently along the ground to the feet of Scorpion and Zabuza, covering both of them instantly.

"Captain, Tokuma, go quickly"

Aburame Muta shouted.

His parasitic insects crazily devoured the chakra of Scorpion and Zabuza, and at the same time bit off the chakra lines on Hyuga Tokuma's body.

Hyuga Neji immediately picked up Hinata Tokuma on his back, turned around and fled quickly.

But more and more Bai Jue clones emerged from the ground and pounced on them with bared teeth and claws.

Hinata Neji used Soft Fist to force the White Zetsu clone back and quickly find a way out.

"Want to run?"

Zabuza took a step forward.

The chakra in his body was constantly being devoured by parasites, but in his reincarnation state, he had infinite chakra. No matter how much the parasites devoured him, they could not stop him.

"Water Escape Fog Concealment Technique"

Zabuza quickly formed a seal, and in an instant, a thick fog centered on him and spread rapidly to the surrounding areas.

"Idiot, the other party is from the Hyuga clan with Byakugan." Xie snorted disdainfully, "This kind of thing can't block his sight."

Zabuza snorted, "I don't want to fight for others anyway, it's that simple."

In the heavy fog, Neji carried Hyuga Tokuma on his back and fought with Bai Zetsu in the thick fog.

While speeding back and forth, Aburame Muta used insects to open the way, leading Lan Hua to quickly retreat from the other direction.

"Let's take each other alone." Xie snorted coldly, and then chased after Aburame Muta and Lanhua.

Zabuza shrugged and chased after Neji and Hinata Tokuma.

At the same time, the rest of the reconnaissance team also encountered the strong man reincarnated from the dirty land, as well as the sniper attack of Bai Jue's clone. In less than half an hour, the members of the reconnaissance team were almost killed and injured.

The only ones who really escaped were Hyuga Neji and Hyuga Tokuma. This was thanks to Zabuza's unruly nature. He didn't want to be manipulated even if he died, so he deliberately let go. This allowed Neji and the two to escape from countless people. Bai Jue escaped from the Kingdom of Rain in his clone.

But, it was just the two of them.

After escaping from the Kingdom of Rain, Hyuga Neji and Hyuga Tokoku waited for a few more days, but no one, including Aburame Muta and Arashi, came out from under the dark clouds of the Kingdom of Rain.

Even from the Country of Grass and the Country of Sichuan, there was no news at all.

"The worst plan is that the rest of the team will be wiped out. Neji, we must send back the information here as soon as possible," Hyuga Tokuma said solemnly.

The wound on his right arm has been bandaged. Although it is not life-threatening, the next war basically has nothing to do with him.

"Damn, it's all my fault"

Neji looked remorseful, "I obviously noticed something was wrong and should have ordered everyone to retreat in time."

"It's not your fault, Neji. The enemy was hidden too deeply. Sensory ninjutsu, Muta's bugs, and even our Hyuga clan's Byakugan didn't notice it. Don't take all the responsibility on yourself."

Hyuga Tokuma sighed deeply, "This is war, and sacrifices are inevitable."

"I know." Hyuga Neji sighed, then he regained his energy and said in a deep voice, "I will stay here, Tokuma, you retreat first and pass the information here to the Hokage."

"I understand, Neji, don't be impulsive." Hinata Tokuma nodded, then turned around and left quickly.

At this time, the ninja coalition was rushing all the way. About two days away from the scheduled camp, the supreme commander Namikaze Minato ordered all units to rest.

At the same time, he summoned the third Tsuchikage Onoki, the fourth Raikage Ai, the fifth Kazekage Temari, as well as Tsunade, Nara Shikaku and others to discuss matters.

"Everyone, according to time estimates, the reconnaissance force should have arrived at the scheduled camp location and even entered the Land of Rain to reconnoiter the main force of the Akatsuki organization. However, no information has been sent back yet." Namikaze Minato said softly, "I'm worried that something unexpected happened to them. , so I plan to send a surprise attack force to meet them. Do you have any other opinions?"

"The leader of the reconnaissance force is Hyuga Neji recommended by Uchiha Sealhu. If an accident occurs, he will also be responsible," the Fourth Raikage shouted loudly.

"Any accident can happen on the battlefield. If the accident happened to the reconnaissance team due to Kumo ninja's fault, then do we also have to hold the Raikage-dono responsible?" Tsunade snorted coldly.

"Hmph, you Konoha will protect your own people," the Fourth Raikage said unhappily.

Onoki frowned and said: "Well, it's already this time and we are still arguing about a trivial matter. Mr. Hokage, you are the supreme commander of the ninja coalition. Since you feel it is necessary to send out a surprise attack force, then send it out."

"I also support Hokage-dono's decision." Temari said solemnly.

The captain of the surprise attack force is her brother Kankuro. It would be a lie to say that she is not worried, but since she has decided to establish a closer relationship with Konoha in this war, she must always support Namikaze Minato unconditionally.

"So"

As soon as Namikaze Minato opened his mouth, everyone heard a rush of footsteps suddenly coming from outside.
