Uchiha's Counterattack

Although Xia Nan temporarily delayed the action due to an accident, the action against the Eastern Ninja Alliance could not be stopped. Jiraiya and others set out overnight and crossed hundreds of miles through the portable door to a dark forest. This is the Eastern Ninja Alliance.

This is the only place where the United Alliance will attack Star City Kikyo, and they will definitely pass by here.

After Jiraiya and the others arrived, they first looked for a hiding place. They waited from noon in the day until the afternoon, until the afterglow of the setting sun was replaced by the dark night. The cold night wind blew everyone's faces, and the cold air made people unable to help themselves.

Have a cold war.

The forest was so quiet that from the outside it was impossible to tell that there were about 500 elite troops hiding here. This was also thanks to the chakra-shielding launcher in Jiraiya's hand, which made the enemy's detection methods ineffective.

"It's strange, it's too slow."

Jiraiya on the treetop looked around and saw that there was still no movement on the dark horizon.

At this time, Uchiha Itachi, who was standing behind Jiraiya, vaguely felt that something was wrong. Although it was Master Xia Nan's arrangement to ambush the enemy here, a plan was a plan after all, and it was often impossible for the enemy to act as planned.

Maybe the enemy bypassed this must-have road and then left from other places? Uchiha Itachi thought so. But it is impossible for hundreds of thousands of people to make a detour without any movement at all. It is really strange.

Very.

"Jiraiya-sama, the enemy may not leave from here." Uchiha Itachi raised his head and said.

Jiraiya nodded, showing an expression of deep understanding.

"But where can they go? This is the only place they must pass on their way to Star City, unless they march by water, but that river cannot withstand hundreds of thousands of people crossing it."

"Where is the sky?" Uchiha Itachi pointed to the night sky above his head, and he said: "Although the sky technology of the Ninja Alliance is not as advanced as New Konoha, basic flight can still be achieved. Could it be that they plan to use it?

A surprise attack from the air using technology similar to that of an airship?"

"No, our air radar is always on. If the enemy was coming through the sky, the radar hidden in the mountains and forests should have warned New Konoha long ago. But I haven't received the warning yet. The other party should

No march from the sky.”

Uchiha Taikaku's shadow clone emerged from the shadows.

"It's a pity that Mr. Xia Nan suddenly had an accident. Mr. Kuroizumi and Mr. Baiquan must stay to take care of Mr. Xia Nan." Uchiha Taiko frowned and said very worriedly: "Only Mr. Kuroizumi and Mr. Baiquan have the authority to carry out the portal.

, if we fail here, we will waste a lot of time rushing back."

"Can't the radio contact them?"

"It's too risky. There is a ninja in the Eastern Ninja Alliance who can sense radio wave signals. If our call is intercepted, too much information will be exposed."

"……I see."

"Then what should we do next, Jiraiya-sama? Should we continue to wait until we find the enemy?"

"Or we can take the initiative to search for the enemy's main formation and attack directly." Uchiha Shisui suddenly appeared in a flash. He had just returned from completing the frontline reconnaissance mission. But unfortunately, he had already traveled nearly 300 miles.

, all twelve shadow clones found nothing.

Shunshen Shisui, his appearance was almost silent and extremely fast. Everyone present except Itachi and Taiko, who are both kaleidoscope holders, noticed it, including Jiraiya, Matt and his son, and Kakashi.

The others were stunned. When they subconsciously pulled out their weapons, they found that Shisui had leaned against the big tree and shook his head at them.

"Shisui, you're back!"

Itachi happily greeted him, but saw Shisui's serious look on his face.

"How's the situation?"

At this time, Jiraiya had already realized that the situation was not good. Just now, the fourth generation ran out again to try to find traces of the enemy. Since Shisui had already returned, it meant that the fourth generation should be fast.

Sure enough, before Jiraiya could finish his words, the mark of the Flying Thunder God left behind him flashed with golden light, and then a cloak of a god robe appeared first, and the Fourth Hokage with a somewhat ugly face appeared, and at the same time, there was a

Carrying a corpse that was unknown whether it was a human or a ghost, it was seen that its whole body was wrapped in bones, but its flesh had been rotting for a long time.

When the Fourth Hokage appeared, Shisui shrank his pupils slightly, and then subconsciously compared his speed with that of the Fourth Hokage. But the result was disappointing. Although his teleportation technique was very fast, he could not surpass the space.

After simulating the restrictions in his mind, Shisui found in despair that the Yondaime-sama of both worlds could easily crush him.

"Yondaime-sama, what are you holding in your hand?"

Kakashi, dressed in military uniform, walked up and took the body from the fourth generation and observed it.

"This corpse is highly decomposed and its internal organs have been hollowed out. It seems that someone deliberately wanted to hide some secret." Kakashi said: "And the bones of this corpse... Wow, so sharp!"

Kakashi gently touched the sharp part of the bone, and with just a tap, Kai's finger was pricked.

Kakashi shook off Gai's arm with a look of despair, then turned around and said: "It's not a naturally formed bone. It's a bit similar to the corpse bone veins of the Kaguya clan, but it's much inferior to that thing. Although it's still very strong and sharp,

It's far different from the original version - and this person, if we can still call him a human being."

"Although the body is rotten, judging from the cavity effect of decay and the retained diluted chakra, this person should have been at least a chunin-level taijutsu ninja during his lifetime, and he also had certain inferior corpse bone vein abilities. Judging from the cause of death

It seemed that he had taken poison, and his internal organs were removed, but there were obvious traces of toxin corrosion around his abdominal cavity."

"——This guy must be in pain when he dies."

Kakashi's summary was very accurate, and everyone present showed thoughtful expressions.

"Where did you find the Yondaime?" Jiraiya asked.

"In a forest 50 kilometers from here, unfortunately, there is more than just bad news. I also found a giant skeleton nearly 10 meters high somewhere. I'm not sure what it is, but it's definitely not it.

What kind of psychic beast, I suspect it may be the product of some kind of human experiment."

"Human experimentation? Damn the Eastern Ninja Federation! I asked them why they deliberately waited so many days to do such a despicable method behind their backs!" Metkai shouted angrily, and was then punched by his father.

It's quiet.

Everyone present is much smarter than you, just listen quietly! Kai read this message from his father’s eyes.

Kai reluctantly shut up.

"...Human experiments, those hundreds of thousands of auxiliary soldiers may be the experimental subjects, right?" Uchiha Itachi thought quickly, and in the blink of an eye he thought of a certain possibility.: "What if the enemy is not targeting ninjas, but ordinary people?"

If people conduct enhancement experiments and it is successful, they can get hundreds of thousands of enhanced people overnight, which is an overwhelming disadvantage for us."

"But where did they get this technology?" Taige asked.

"There are still many unknown secrets behind the Akatsuki organization, and this disgusting method... Shisui, doesn't it look familiar to you?" Itachi Uchiha turned back to look at Shisui.

"Hmm..." Shisui walked to the body and nodded to Kakashi, then squatted down and took a closer look.

Everyone around them focused their attention on Shisui and Itachi, waiting quietly for their answers.

"Indeed, it is a bit like the dark medical ninjutsu possessed by the empty ninja we eliminated before, but this strengthening method is much stronger than what we have seen before, and it should be a mature and advanced version."
