Chapter 112: Let's fight straight!

Uchiha Gen dipped a finger into the remaining powder, sucked it clean, and savored the restorative effects of this high-quality chakra. He also tried to analyze the medicinal ingredients of this soldier's ration pill through his tongue.

Unfortunately, his skill level in pharmacology, a field that requires talent and a lot of experience, is not very compatible with his medical ninjutsu skill level, which he artificially boosted by using the Tsunade character card. It is only barely adequate.

He could prescribe medicine for wounded ninjas, even if it was just for sword wounds, but to be able to taste the exact proportions of the ingredients just by taking a bite was something even Tsunade herself couldn't do.

He could only roughly analyze the main ingredients used in larger quantities to see if they were similar to the formulas of the current mainstream military ration pills.

"Yes, most of the main ingredients should still be the same, but the potency is much stronger. The age and quality are incomparable to normal military ration pills. I just don't know how it manages to eliminate side effects and reduce abnormal conditions."

Gen Uchiha smacked his lips, savoring the sweet and astringent taste in his mouth, and carefully collected the remaining powder in a paper packet.

I'll go back and borrow Tsunade's equipment to analyze the precise proportions of the medicinal herbs and see if I can replicate the formula.

Even if the quality of medicinal herbs available in reality is limited, even if they are weakened versions, if they have those additional effects, they will rise to prominence and deliver a devastating blow to most military ration pills on the market.

The next day, in the morning.

The reinforcements that Mitarashi Shishou requested yesterday arrived here early this morning.

It's just that its scale is unusually large.

"Shouldn't it be another team coming? Why are there so many people?"

Uchiha Gen stared in astonishment at the crowd of people in Wu Yangjue, as well as Tsunade and Orochimaru who appeared in front of him.

This probably means that nearly half of the main force is here, and there are also two top-tier combatants, Orochimaru and Tsunade.

"We came here following Chiyo."

Orochimaru explained.

To maintain pressure on Sunagakure, they must contain Chiyo, a powerful enemy force.

Tsunade is strong in close combat and can detoxify, while Orochimaru has high poison resistance and well-rounded abilities. The task of keeping Chiyo in check is best left to these two.

In an effort to salvage the situation, Chiyo has been traveling to various locations, trying to avoid the two of them. Therefore, she leads an elite puppet army, frequently moving between different strongholds.

However, as Sunagakure actively retreated, the number of its strongholds decreased, and the battle lines moved further back, Chiyo was pursued more and more closely.

"What Chiyo wants to do most right now is to lead the team to break through our blockade. Only in this way can she turn this situation around."

We chased her for three months, and she ran away for three months. We've had countless battles, big and small. Now it's your turn.

Orochimaru looked at Uchiha Gen and said leisurely.

"Then what should we do, Lord Orochimaru?"

Mitarashi Shishou asked with a hint of respect.

Orochimaru simply smiled at Mitarashi Shishou, then turned his gaze back to Uchiha Gen.

"What do you suggest we do, Yuan?"

"Don't overthink it, just attack. We outnumber them, are stronger, and have the upper hand. There's no need to drag it out."

Gen Uchiha honestly shared his thoughts.

The destruction of Sunagakure's logistics and the disruption of the Asuka Mountains have increased the difficulty of restoring logistics.

However, the efficiency of the ninjas is not low. Even though Konoha has been putting continuous pressure on Sunagakure for the past three months to hinder the recovery of its logistics system, if this drags on, Sunagakure may still be able to stabilize its situation.

As one of the five great ninja villages, it has a solid foundation.

"That's right, let's just attack directly. Chiyo is being held back by us, but doesn't she also want to hold back the two of us? She will definitely be there. Now, even if she wants to replicate the tactics we accidentally achieved before to exchange bases, she doesn't have that foundation anymore. Because if she can't hold us back, then we can directly crush this base and continue to push backwards."

Time always sides with the one who gains the advantage.

Orochimaru smiled confidently.

Tactical base swaps are indeed a good way to win when you're at a disadvantage, but that's only if you can actually make the swap.

Before you could even change your strategy, you were wiped out in one fell swoop, leaving only a lone army without a base outside. That would be suicide.

If they are determined to fight, Chiyo will have no choice but to fight, even if she doesn't want to.

If they can hold their ground, everything will remain the same; they can stay put and continue to look for opportunities to counterattack.

If they can't hold out, they can only continue to retreat, passively gathering their last remaining forces for a desperate gamble.

If they lose again, the vast Land of Rain will no longer have a place for Sunagakure.

Thousands of Konoha members quickly assembled and swarmed towards the Sunagakure stronghold like ants.

Everything was like a replay of last year's battle, only on a much smaller scale, and the role that Uchiha Gen played in this battle had also changed.

He is now the leader of the Fire Release team, and the combined Fire Release ninjutsu will be linked through him.

Besides the two basic requirements of Jonin-level Fire Release nature transformation and excellent chakra control, the real reason why Uchiha Gen was able to take on this position was his pair of three-tomoe Sharingan.

The Sharingan with its three tomoe can clearly see the flow of chakra, and its dynamic vision can keenly sense changes in chakra. In situations where chakra needs to be guided, it can achieve far better results than other ordinary Fire Release Jonin.

As it turns out, this choice was correct.

Flames swept across the sky, overwhelming the gale, and burned relentlessly toward the Sand Village ninja's stronghold.

Under Uchiha Gen's leadership, the advantage of having more Konoha ninja was brought into play, and they forcefully suppressed the Sand Village ninja's most proficient Wind Release combined ninjutsu.

They outnumbered the enemy, and their Wind Release technique was countered by Fire Release. If they could properly utilize every bit of their power, they would naturally win this stage of the competition.

"boom!"

The raging flames overwhelmed the wind net, blasted through the earthen walls, and created a breach in the Sand Village's defenses.

One after another, Konoha ninja rushed in, paving the way for those who followed.

Only the elite of the elite can accomplish this task and hold off a large-scale enemy attack.

Gen Uchiha was among them.

In the Sharingan, the three tomoe-shaped pupils spun rapidly, precisely capturing every incoming attack and every opening that approached the enemy.

Amidst the sea of ​​people, a figure clad in clothing bearing the Uchiha clan crest moved nimbly, flames dancing on the Sengoku ninja sword in his hand, swiftly and ruthlessly reaping lives one after another.

Uchiha Gen found that he seemed to be enjoying this kind of battle.
