After Minato Namikaze finished speaking, Ryosuke Uchiha nodded in satisfaction: "Where is the enemy now?"
"We can set off now and give them a little surprise."
As he spoke, he stood up abruptly, looked up at the bright sunshine outside the window, and at the peaceful and tranquil Konoha Village.
Keeping war out of the country is also a very rewarding thing.
Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, led a large force into the Land of Fire and encountered no obstacles along the way.
They didn't even see a single Konoha ninja.
This unusual situation made the battle-hardened Onoki realize that something was wrong.
He ordered the main force to halt its advance.
"Third Tsuchikage, something seems very wrong..."
A ninja leader from the Land of Birds offered his conjecture to Onoki: "It's impossible that the people of the Land of Fire, '870,' are completely unaware of our actions. Even so, the border defense forces must have already noticed something."
"But they haven't taken any action. Does this suggest they have some ulterior motive?"
Onoki stopped the team to study this problem.
Upon hearing this, he nodded: "Everyone be careful, there's a good chance of an ambush ahead!"
"Huang Tu, send out a reconnaissance team to investigate and find out what's going on!"
He gave orders to the yellow earth around him.
Huang Tu immediately dispatched a reconnaissance team to gather intelligence.
After some time, the reconnaissance team returned.
"Third Tsuchikage, we have not found anything. There is no trace of any enemy within ten kilometers of here."
The reconnaissance squad leader returned and reported.
The team was now in a dilemma.
The Land of Fire is one of the strongest of the five great nations.
Konoha is no novice in war either.
The more favorable the situation seemed to be for them, the more uneasy Onoki felt.
"Is it possible that they are planning to outflank us from the side?"
"It was a guess from a Jonin leading a team from the Land of Demons."
The leaders of ninja forces from other small countries also echoed this speculation.
This is not impossible.
After much deliberation, Onoki immediately ordered a reconnaissance team to be dispatched to investigate their surroundings.
But he was still uneasy and ordered the perception team to start working immediately.
"There's no need to hide anymore. Even if you're targeted by the enemy when you use sensory ninjutsu, it doesn't matter. Begin your mission!"
Onoki spoke to the Perception Team.
Their primary ability is perception.
Each sensory ninja possesses sensory abilities far exceeding those of ordinary ninjas. They are one of the core forces on the battlefield; without them, one's own side might become blind.
If the perception squad can accurately pinpoint the enemy's location, their actions can be adjusted accordingly based on the perceived intelligence.
Upon receiving the order, the perception class immediately began to meditate on the spot.
A dozen people joined forces to combine their chakra, greatly enhancing their perception and range through this massive chakra boost.
They quickly pinpointed the location of the Konoha forces.
"Lord Onoki!"
The captain of the perception class shouted, his expression very serious.
His reaction added even more psychological pressure to the already uneasy crowd.
At this moment, everyone turned to look at him.
"Have you detected the enemy's location?"
Onoki's eyes sharpened, and he immediately pressed for an answer.
The other party nodded immediately.
"I sensed it!!"
"Where is the enemy located?"
"We're almost there..."
The other person was covered in cold sweat, and their voice was trembling.
Because the chakra they sensed at that moment was simply too enormous.
That's a level of chakra that ordinary people can't possess.
Even tailed beasts might not have such an exaggerated amount of chakra!
And that's precisely what shocked them.
"what?"
Upon hearing the captain of the perception class's answer, Onoki's expression changed slightly.
The troops sent out to scout earlier found nothing.
They also said there was no trace of the enemy within a ten-kilometer radius.
But how much time has passed now?
So quickly, the enemy has already arrived!
Moreover, they directly confronted their own main force.
"Pass down the order! All combat personnel, prepare for battle immediately!!"
Ōnoki snapped out of his daze and immediately issued the battle order.
However, after he spoke, he received no response from anyone.
Ohnoki turned around in confusion and looked at his subordinates.
He noticed that everyone was staring blankly at the left, and many people even had terrified looks in their eyes and were covered in cold sweat.
This strange situation made Onoki's heart sink, and he subconsciously followed their gaze in that direction.
Upon seeing this, his pupils contracted sharply.
At this moment, a strange-looking red transparent ball of light was rapidly spreading towards them from a distance.
If that were all, it wouldn't be so surprising; Onoki and the others wouldn't be so shocked.
But as the eerie red light curtain spread, it also damaged everything it encountered along the way.
All the trees, flowers, and plants that were touched along the way burst into flames before everyone's eyes.
The raging flames spread to as far as everyone could see in an instant.
The culprit behind all this was that eerie red light curtain.
"They're here too!!"
Someone shouted from the long queue.
Everyone turned to look to their left, and sure enough, they saw an identical red light curtain, seemingly connecting heaven and earth, spreading out from there.
Not only was it incredibly fast, but it also instantly ignited everything the light curtain touched along its path.
"We have them in our rear too!!"
"There's one on the right too!"
Soon, the Allied Shinobi Forces of the Land of Earth discovered that these red light screens were appearing all around them.
A red light curtain, spreading from the southeast, northwest, or rather, from the front, back, left, and right, formed a tight square cage.
It appears they are all surrounded.
They were trapped in this bizarre cage and could not leave.
"what happened?"
"What's going on? It's getting closer and closer!! Think of something quick, hey!"
"..."
The Allied Shinobi Forces, recovering from their shock and disbelief, quickly began trying to stop the ever-shrinking red light barrier.
"Earth Escape! Earthflow City Wall!!"
A Jonin from Iwagakure used Earth Release ninjutsu.
A massive earthen wall rose from the ground, blocking the direction in which the red light curtain was moving.
However, under the tense and expectant gazes of everyone, this seemingly impregnable city wall could not even block the red light curtain for half a second.
The moment it was touched by the red light curtain, it immediately burst into flames and crumbled, turning to ashes in an instant.
All that remains are the ashes swirling in the air.
This scene left all the ninjas dumbfounded.
They never expected that the red light barrier would be so powerful that even earth-style ninjutsu could not stop it.
But some people don't believe in superstition.
More Iwagakure ninja began to take action.
"Everyone, attack together! We must stop it!!"
"If it spreads, we're all doomed!!"
Someone in the crowd shouted loudly.
Dozens of Jonin immediately stepped forward and joined forces.
"Earth Release·Earth Style Wall!!"
They used the same ninjutsu once again.
This time, because dozens of Jonin attacked at the same time, the power was naturally incomparable to that of the previous day.
A massive and thick sturdy city wall rose from the ground, soaring straight into the sky.
Moreover, it wasn't just one layer, but multiple layers of city walls appearing before everyone's eyes simultaneously.
The towering city walls quickly blocked everyone's view.
They could no longer see the eerie red light screen directly in front of them.
After waiting a moment, it seemed as if nothing had happened.
"It seems...successful?"
"A ninja from Iwagakure said with surprise and uncertainty."
Meanwhile, the other ninjas also came to their senses and began trying to block the light barriers from other directions.
"Quickly block the light barriers on the left, right, and back as well!! They're coming!"
Seeing that the combined earth-flowing wall technique seemed to be effective, the other ninjas quickly followed suit.
They divided into different squads, lined up in rows on the left, right, and rear, and used Earth Release ninjutsu simultaneously.
The earthen walls that blotted out the sky seemed to have successfully blocked the red light curtain spreading from other directions.
After all that commotion, everyone had used up a lot of chakra.
Looking at the towering, seemingly endless massive barrier, the allied ninjas from various countries, primarily from the Iwagakure village of the Land of Earth, all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Phew... I'm finally saved."
"But what exactly happened? Did the people of Konoha launch an attack on us?"
Someone asked with surprise and uncertainty.
