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

Chapter 252 Hero's Water
"Everyone, get ready! We're just waiting for the signal to storm Yangyan Village!"

Pu Mu's voice trembled with excitement.

The Takigakure ninjas also seemed to wake up from a dream, sharpening their swords and waiting for the signal flare to sound so they could quickly attack Kagerou Village. However, after waiting for a long time, there was not a single sound.

"Could something have happened to Jonin Umino and the others?"

Taki Shinobu was getting restless as no signal flare appeared.

"do not make noise!"

Ryo Inuzuka, as the temporary commander of the Unno unit, remained calm and confident in Sasuke Unno and the others. He immediately issued the order, "Be careful to stay hidden. Anyone who dares to make any unusual movements will be subject to battlefield discipline."

Seeing that Umino's troops remained unmoved while his own troops were so incompetent, Takigakure Commander Bakuki felt somewhat ashamed and quickly suppressed his agitation.

Meanwhile, Umino Sasuke and his group had already infiltrated Kagerou Village and begun assassinating its high-ranking members.

The assassination team was divided into three groups: Umino Sasuke led Might Guy, who had the weakest assassination ability; Uchiha Shun led Namiashi Raito, who had the weakest ability; and Gekko Yoru led Shirakumo Hayama.

In this assassination mission, Shirakumo Hayama, as a veteran Jonin, was to follow the orders of Tsukiko Yoru.

Although Moonlight Night is the youngest, his strength is indeed quite impressive. His direct combat power has surpassed that of Raito Namiashi and is very close to that of Hayama Shirakumo, who is at the elite Jonin level.

Under the cover of night, his combat power can reach its peak, even surpassing Shirakumo Hayama, making him essentially a weaker version of Hatake Sagumo.

Since Umino Sasuke cured his cough, his strength has increased by leaps and bounds, and he has finally earned the title of "Dancing Night Dancer".

Although the title was given to him by Umino Sasuke, it was well-deserved and recognized by many enemy ninjas.

If it was a weaker version of Hatake Sagumo before, it might have been a bit of a stretch, but now, in the dead of night, his assassination power is something that even Umino Sasuke, without the ability to sense sound waves, can only dream of.

The strength of the Kagerou Village ninjas was not much stronger than that of the Sora Village ninjas. They were all extremely specialized and needed the assistance of weapons and equipment. Their actual combat strength was far inferior to that of the Hoshi ninjas. Under the assassination attempt by Umino Sasuke and his six companions, they did not even make a sound before the Kagerou Village leaders went to the Pure Land to meet the Sage of Six Paths.

After assassinating a large number of so-called subpar Jonin, Kagero Village finally realized something was wrong, sounded the alarm, and the large-scale assassinations were temporarily halted.

Sasuke Umino also fired the signal flare, launching a coordinated attack from within and without.

"Something terrible has happened! Enemies have infiltrated the village and assassinated all the elders."

"Most of the explosive tag traps on the east side are also ineffective. How could this be?!"

The ninjas of Yangyan Village were horrified. Their proud and impregnable explosive tag defense system had been easily and silently breached.

"Come on!"

"Invade Yangyan Village!"

Led by Ryo Inuzuka and Toki, the outlying troops stormed into Kagerou Village like tigers descending a mountain, passing through the explosive tag trap defenses without hindrance.

With the exception of Namiashi Raito, who was slightly weaker, the six members of Umino Sasuke's group all displayed combat power no less than that of elite Jonin.

"Magic: The Art of the Flail!"

Shun Uchiha's Sharingan could see through almost every flaw, and he easily controlled the ninjas of Kagero Village.

With a single, swift slash, Namiashi Raito easily slayed a large number of enemy ninjas.

"Secret Sword - Obscure Moonlit Night!" Moonlight Night's longsword transformed into countless afterimages, its cold light precisely reaping lives wherever it touched.

At the same time, Shirokumo Hayama continuously unleashed the Vacuum series of Wind Release techniques to assist Moonlight Night in reaping lives.

"Konoha's powerful whirlwind!"

Might Guy transforms into a green whirlwind, using pure physical strength to kick away enemies who try to get close.

As for Sasuke Umino himself, he was like the master of the battlefield. In his hands, the Thunder God Sword and the Sealing Sword were like the scythe of death, invincible.

The assassination of all the high-ranking officials caused great internal chaos. Coupled with the fierce attack from the Konoha and Takigakure allied forces, Kagero Village collapsed completely as soon as it engaged in battle.

Under attack from both inside and outside, Yangyan Village's resistance quickly collapsed.

The remaining Kagerou ninjas were either annihilated or fled in panic, only to be wiped out by the allied ninjas waiting on the periphery.

"Konoha Style·Yanagi!"

When the last remaining weak Jonin was pierced through the chest by Sasuke Umino's Thunder God Sword, the battle finally came to an end.

The village of Kagerou, which once intimidated the ninja world with its explosive tags and caused heavy losses to Takigakure, was easily conquered.

The Unno troops have only been here for half a day, yet they have already achieved more results than Takigakure Village has in a month.

As the battlefield gradually calmed down, the Umino troops began to systematically clear the battlefield and confirm the results of the battle.

Waterfall Tree, accompanied by a group of Takigakure high-ranking officials with complex expressions, walked up to Umino Sasuke, who was directing the cleanup. Looking at this young yet despair-inducing Konoha Jonin, and seeing that the Konoha ninjas around him had suffered far fewer casualties than the Takigakure ninjas despite their battles, the Takigakure ninjas' faces lost all arrogance, replaced by deep shock and awe.

Waterfall opened his mouth, his throat a little dry, and finally bowed deeply: "Jonin Unno, everyone from Konoha, thank you for your support! My Takigakure owes Konoha a huge favor. We were arrogant and presumptuous before, and we have offended you in many ways. Please forgive us!"

Behind them, the Taki ninjas also lowered their once proud heads, feeling utterly ashamed.

The fortress they couldn't breach, even after expending enormous resources and using the Hero's Water, proved utterly vulnerable before Konoha.

"Jonin Unno, this is the Hero's Water, please accept it!"

Bakumoku presented a treasure from Takigakure Village, hoping to make up for his previous rudeness.

Sasuke Umino had decent political acumen and wanted to win over this small ninja village. He didn't say anything sarcastic; instead, he praised the bravery of Takigakure and recounted the historical ties between Konoha and Takigakure, emphasizing the need for sincere cooperation in the future to protect the peace of the ninja world.

Sasuke Umino solemnly accepted the Hero's Water and also presented several red curry balls as a return gift.

The morning sun shone on Kagerou Village, illuminating the tall figures of the Konoha ninjas and the awe-inspiring gazes of the Takigakure ninjas.

With this overwhelming victory, the White Blood Demon and his troops once again resounded across the battlefield of the Land of Mountains, while Takigakure Village deeply remembered the kindness of Konoha's support.

The smoke of battle had not yet cleared, and the air was filled with the smell of burning and blood, but the order of victory had been rapidly established under the command of Umino Sasuke.

The Konoha ninja, working in concert with the remaining Takigakure ninja, efficiently controlled key locations throughout Kagero Village, inventoried the spoils of war, and took prisoners.

Meanwhile, Sasuke Umino's true form, guided by the Sound Wave Release, had already arrived at the hidden vault in Kagerou Village with Might Guy.
