Uchiha's personal opinion

Suigetsu Hobutsuki stopped his slashing motion and looked at his subordinates with a gloomy face.

"Two red warning plumes of smoke have risen from the land of the Land of Whirlpools; it seems the Konoha ninjas have discovered us..."

The Hidden Mist Ninja reported nervously to Suigetsu Hobutsuki.

"Have the sensory ninjas discovered the presence of the Konoha ninja army?"

Suigetsu Hobutsuki, leaning on his greatsword Samehada, twisted his neck.

He's furious right now and can't wait to vent his anger on the Uchiha.

"Nothing yet. Only a few people were spotted on the beach, but they have all retreated inland. Judging from their movement patterns detected by sensory ninjutsu, they are likely Hyuga ninjas responsible for reconnaissance..."

The Hidden Mist ninja immediately reported the situation from the front lines.

Large beads of water kept dripping from his forehead; it was hard to tell if it was seawater or sweat.

"Hinata...white eyes..."

The serrated steel teeth of the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon clenched again, making a 'crunching' sound, like an angry orange cat scratching at glass.

Among the Konoha ninja clans, the Uchiha clan is known for its bravery and skill in battle, but if you were to ask other ninja villages which Konoha ninja clan they hate the most, it would definitely be the Hyuga clan, which possesses the Byakugan.

Faced with the Byakugan's super-long-range vision, any ingenious battlefield deployment is as transparent as a white silk thread. Every Hyuga ninja who has awakened their bloodline limit is like a human radar. All ambushes, encirclements, ambushes, and traps are useless. The intelligence on the battlefield is almost one-way transparent. The only tactic that can work is to rely on the strength of the headquarters to withstand the Byakugan ninja's attacks and find the Konoha Ninja Army headquarters for a decisive battle.

For ninjas, who are swift and mobile and prefer mobile warfare, setting up fortified camps and engaging in stagnant battles is the most detestable thing.

"Order the frontline ninja forces to cover the sensory ninjas as they land first and establish a beachhead for headquarters!"

After a moment's thought, Watermelon Pufferfish Demon decided to use the most conservative tactics: "Order all ships of all sizes in the headquarters to immediately converge, and after establishing a beachhead, immediately link all the ships together with iron chains!"

"As ordered!"

His trusted subordinates immediately set out to carry out the order.

Suigetsu Hozuki did not intend to adopt the traditional ship beach landing tactic. Instead, he gathered all the ships together to form a chain-like formation suspended at sea, in order to avoid being infiltrated and burned by Konoha ninjas with Byakugan assistance.

"Lord Sugiyama! Battle report from the front!" A moment later, another messenger ninja from Kirigakure rushed back with a report: "The coastal areas are completely deserted. The vanguard is currently establishing beachhead positions!"

"it is good!"

Suigetsu Hozuki's tense face relaxed slightly. "Order the vanguard ninja to carefully construct their positions. Headquarters will soon be landing!"

"As ordered!"

The messenger, a ninja from the Hidden Mist Village, bowed in reverence and then hurriedly departed.

"Order all units to prepare to land with me, except for the Water Ghost Team, which will remain here to guard the area!"

Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon issued commands to those on either side.

"Yes!"

Immediately, another Kirigakure ninja took out a conch shell and blew it in the Kirigakure's unique rhythm to signal the start of the battle.

"Ugh~ Ooh~ Ugh~~"

Accompanied by the loud and long sound of conch shells, the Kirigakure ninja army lined up and went into the sea, stepping on the water and preparing to rush ashore and land.

As squads of Kirigakure ninjas successfully landed in an orderly fashion and quickly deployed into battle formation, Suigetsu Hobuki's tense mood gradually eased.

What followed was a surge of lofty aspirations.

With two thousand Hidden Mist Ninja soldiers displaying such prowess, how could the Uchiha, who dared not even attempt a beachhead attack, withstand the crushing force of such a large army!

Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon was in high spirits, all his tension and depression vanished.

"Log in!"

Suigetsu Hozuki, wielding his greatsword Samehada, led his personal guard ninjas as the final act of their landing.

……

At this time, Uchiha Tokumitsu had already led his ninja army on a rapid march towards the eastern sea area of ​​the Land of Whirlpools.

Although it is unknown why Kirigakure split up its forces, it was an excellent opportunity for the Uchiha ninja army, which was short of troops!

Facing three thousand Kirigakure ninja, his Uchiha ninja were indeed helpless, but if it were just five hundred Kirigakure, Uchiha Tokumitsu was very confident.

Moreover, Uchiha Tokumitsu continued to gather the retreating Hyuga ninjas along the way.

At this time, every additional ninja adds to the strength, especially since these branch family ninjas of the Hyuga clan possess formidable taijutsu skills and considerable combat prowess, which can play a significant role in battle.

Especially if you have enough Byakugan ninjas, you don't have to worry about being surrounded by the Hidden Mist army during battle. You can fight or retreat whenever you want, and all the initiative is in your own hands.

Uchiha Tokumitsu's first target was the Kaguya clan.

According to the Hyuga ninja's report, this ninja army was the most chaotic of the three Kirigakure ninja armies. The main force consisted of about a hundred Kaguya ninjas, while the rest of the Kirigakure ninjas seemed to be in a subordinate position. During the landing, they were in complete disarray, and many Kirigakure ninjas who were a little slow to move were even killed by a bone bullet thrown casually by a Kaguya ninja.

It's like a mob of thugs leading a flock of sheep into battle.

Uchiha Tokumitsu immediately set his sights on this ninja army, which Kaguya would use as its main force.

Kaguya's ninjas are strong, but their strength lies in close-quarters taijutsu. Their ninjutsu skills are generally not high, and they would not have the opportunity to gain the upper hand in a ninjutsu duel.

Furthermore, he didn't believe that after being so abused, those Hidden Mist ninjas would still have the will to fight to the death when facing a disadvantage.

"Among the five hundred Mist Ninja ahead, about a hundred are from the Kaguya clan, who are known for their bone-playing abilities!"

As the Uchiha ninja army marched, Uchiha Tokumitsu shouted loudly.

"The Kaguya clan is known for its brutal and berserk nature. Although they lack rationality, they are fearless in battle!"

"So I've already decided that after this battle, I'll use all their hardest skulls to make a suit of armor, so I need you to offer up Kaguya's head!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu turned to look at the Uchiha ninja army behind him, "Do you have the confidence to fulfill my wish?!"

"Burn Kaguya, offer her head to the throne!"

A Uchiha ninja shouted wildly.

"Burn Kaguya, offer her head to the throne!"

The manic and frenzied slogans immediately resounded throughout the Uchiha ninja army.

The ninja felt that maintaining the silent barrier while moving was becoming even more difficult.

"We have reached the designated battlefield three kilometers ahead!"

The Hyuga ninja, with his Byakugan activated, issued a report.

"Get ready!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu slowed his pace, saying, "Gentlemen, please check yourselves to make sure your equipment is complete!"

"Battlefield approaching in two kilometers!"

As the Uchiha ninja army continued its advance, the Hyuga ninjas sent out another reconnaissance report.

"The Hidden Mist Village has detected the commotion! Five Kaguya ninja are currently rushing towards the direction where headquarters is located!"

As the Byakugan ninja reported the intelligence, Uchiha Tokumitsu slowed down the march once again.

After checking and organizing their equipment, the Uchiha ninjas, who were initially hesitant and out of breath from the long march, calmed down.

They were all elite ninja of Chunin rank or higher, so they naturally knew how to adjust their state of mind in battle.

"The Hidden Mist's vanguard is 800 meters ahead!" the Hyuga ninja shouted. "We expect to engage in battle in ten seconds!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu stopped and drew his kodachi, pointing the blade at the forest in front of him.

The Uchiha ninja army behind them immediately stopped and stood ready for battle.

Chapter 135 Song of Fire and Bones

Five Kaguya ninjas strolled casually through the jungle.

They bypassed the main camp of the Hidden Mist and traveled alone. Since landing, they had encountered no obstacles, not even a single stranger, let alone an enemy. Therefore, they relaxed their guard a little.

Although Kaguya the Ninja seemed completely unprepared, bone spurs were faintly visible beneath her loose robe, and her five fingers were wrapped in grayish-white talismans, clearly indicating that she was ready for battle.

Although the Kaguya clan ninjas may appear violent, manic, and mindless in normal times, they are actually quite intelligent in battle.

For example, at this moment, although they look very relaxed, this is also a tactic used by Kaguya ninjas to lure the lurking intruders into launching a sneak attack.

If the infiltrator cannot resist the temptation and tries to reach out and behead him, then Kaguya's bones will mercilessly smash his skull.

The carefree Kaguya ninja pushed aside the branches in front of her, and suddenly the view opened up before her.

Before me lay a vast, open meadow in the woods.

There were also hundreds of Uchiha members, eyeing the battlefield with predatory intent...

"Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Technique!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu swung his katana downwards, and twenty Uchiha Jonin who were ready with their ninjutsu immediately launched an attack.

Twenty fire dragons, like hungry tigers fighting for food, attacked the mere five Kaguya ninjas from all directions.

"Liu Zhi..."

"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!"

Five Kaguya ninjas were about to use the Willow Dance movement technique to dodge, but the fire dragons came fiercely and in great numbers, making it impossible to avoid them. Before they could even move, they were engulfed by the fire dragons.

The explosion of the Fire Release ninjutsu created a sea of ​​fire in front of the Uchiha ninja army, and the Kirigakure ninja army on the beach was also alarmed by the violent explosion.

A severed hand, clutching half a spine, was blasted away and landed in front of Uchiha Tokumitsu.

"Lord Deguang, all five enemies are dead..."

After a moment of focused perception, a Uzumaki ninja bent down and whispered his report to Uchiha Tokumitsu.

"Hmm..." Uchiha Tokumitsu nodded in satisfaction. "The Uzumaki clan's barrier techniques are really useful. We've been lying in wait for so long and Kirigakure still hasn't discovered us!"

"I dare not accept such praise; it was merely a few petty tricks," the Uzumaki ninja continued, bowing humbly. "It is our honor to serve Lord Tokuko..."

The sophisticated flattery skills put Uchiha Tokumitsu in a great mood, and his tone of voice became lighter.

"Get ready for battle! Let's roast the pork ribs together!"

He then kicked the severed hand off the ground, stomped his foot, and leaped up, becoming the first to charge towards the Hidden Mist Ninja Army on the beach.

The loud explosions naturally did not escape the notice of the Hidden Mist Ninja Army on the beach.

Under the beatings and kicks of the Kaguya clan leader, four hundred ordinary Kirigakure ninjas scattered in fear on the beach.
