Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 201 Remnants of the Army

"We only have eleven people in good condition now, including you. The rest of our companions have mostly suffered injuries of varying degrees!"

Of our wounded comrades, only about ten were still capable of fighting. The rest were completely incapable of combat!

As his comrades reported the casualty figures, the Jonin from the hilltop grew increasingly heavy-hearted.

As the commander of the camp, he was very familiar with the situation there. Before the attack, their entire camp, including the wounded and the village ninjas who were resting, had about 90 people.

Although his companions had only done a rough count, the situation had already exceeded his expectations!

They hadn't expected that a single surprise attack would inflict so many casualties. Fortunately, however, the news he received wasn't all bad; the enemy continued:

"Although the number isn't large, those who survived are mostly highly alert members of our group. These are the strongest members of the camp! Among them are even two Jonin who were resting in the camp!"

This is quite normal. Although Toshiro and his men's surprise attack was rather abrupt, those veterans who had been on the battlefield for many years still noticed it the moment it happened.

As the whooshing sound caused by their high-speed dive spread, some of the Iwa ninja were already awakened, but Toshiro and his group were too fast, giving them no time to prepare.

Although the sheer number of explosive tags prevented them from saving many of their comrades' lives, these individuals immediately escaped the initial barrage, concealed themselves, and began discreetly observing the changes at the base.

But what happened next terrified them!

Those hiding underground were alright, but the Iwa ninja on the surface were all badly injured by Toshiro's sound illusion technique.

Even so, when the Jonin from the hilltop launched a probing attack, quite a few Iwa ninja seized the opportunity to rescue many of their comrades.

"Are there any sensory ninjas among the survivors? If not, we'll be in serious trouble. Their genjutsu is incredibly powerful; I almost fell for it just by using a secret technique to probe the situation up there."

Launching an attack rashly will only make things difficult if we can't find the enemy's main body; even with our numerical advantage, we'll likely gain little advantage!

There is no more effective way to deal with a genjutsu ninja than to attack their physical body.

"The surviving sensory ninja is Yoshio!"

"Ryosuke? If I remember correctly, he's one of the sensory ninjas on duty tonight! Hopefully, he can atone for his mistakes this time!"

The camp was successfully attacked by the enemy, and the sensory ninja bear the greatest responsibility. If this happened in the wild, no one would blame them, but in a camp, especially one with a sensory barrier, the fact that they were attacked is clearly a dereliction of duty!

If the situation weren't so urgent, and if it weren't the time to assign blame, he would have loved to kill the other person to quell his anger.

However, if the other party cannot help in the upcoming battle, then there is no need for them to continue living in this world.

Although the Iwagakure ninja are united, they don't tolerate idlers!

"This time, our opponent..."

"This time, the enemy is that Uchiha squadron!"

Before the Jonin could finish speaking, his subordinate had already finished saying what he was about to say.

That wasn't all; the other party continued:

"A comrade just scouted the area, and the entire camp is enveloped by a barrier..."

Upon hearing this, the Jonin from the hilltop gave the other person a deep look. Even underground, the close proximity made the other person feel as if they were being stared at.

Therefore, he did not say the rest.

However, the meaning the other party wanted to express was self-evident!

"I know this Uchiha group. They've gained fame in the last year or two, but apart from the leaders who are a bit difficult to deal with, the rest are just a bunch of young kids!"

Given our situation, once we take care of their leader, the rest is a piece of cake!

It wasn't that this Jonin Tsuchigumo looked down on Toshiro and his group, but rather that what he said was indeed true.

As a team composed entirely of Uchiha members, they are undoubtedly the kind of merit that all Iwa ninja on this battlefield would want to obtain.

The team's basic information was inevitably studied by these Iwa ninja.

Although they didn't quite understand why their opponents were a group of mostly "kids" who were just child soldiers, it didn't stop the Iwa ninja from fantasizing about using Toshiro and the others' heads to exchange for a generous reward from the main camp.

Indeed, the Iwagakure camp offered a very attractive bounty to these Uchiha ninjas who were active outside.

Including but not limited to money, ninjutsu, and positions.

This made Toshiro even more cautious after learning about the situation.

Meanwhile, they were also secretly complaining, needless to say, all of this was the mess caused by their own "dance king"~

"yes!"

The ninja who came to report the situation breathed a sigh of relief and was overjoyed.

I was a little confused just now; how could I have expressed my meaning so bluntly! Luckily, Jonin Tsuchikyuu didn't hold it against me!

"Make arrangements, especially for Liang Xiong. He needs to reflect on his actions. If he makes another mistake, he has no reason to live!"

Jonin Tsuchiguchi didn't take his deputy's loss of composure too seriously. Even though the other party was also a Jonin, the fear of death is a basic human instinct. It's understandable that he would have such thoughts after being suddenly attacked.

However, he needed to be extremely cautious about what followed. Although the other party was relatively young, their several pairs of Sharingan eyes made him dare not underestimate them in the slightest.

On the ground, as time passed, the Iwa ninja who were unable to move due to their injuries had basically been cleared away by Yan and his group.

At this moment, they were in groups of three, their faces full of vigilance as they observed the surrounding movements, especially underground.

They were all so eager that they wanted to stick their eyes right up to the surface to find any trace of the rock ninja hiding underground.

Unfortunately, the thick earth not only blocked Toshiro's sound illusion, but even Homura and the others' Sharingan were powerless against it.

There's nothing we can do about it; the Earth Release techniques of the Iwa ninja are truly unparalleled in the ninja world when it comes to this.

Something small came up and I was delayed.
