Chapter 468 Battlefield Situation
Chapter 468 Battlefield Situation Onoki was flying in the sky, and his field of vision was extremely wide.
He could easily see that Choza's team was encircling their Iwagakure Jinchuriki team.
Remembering the news that Lao Zi was injured and unconscious, he quickly accelerated and flew down towards his own team.
"Lord Tsuchikage, you're finally back!"
The sharp-eyed Han spotted Onoki immediately and quickly went to meet him.
As soon as Onoki landed, before he could even catch his breath, he eagerly asked:
"How is Lao Zi doing now? Did the Molten Lock Sealing Technique fail to work? Why was he knocked unconscious by the illusion?"
A barrage of questions came out of his mouth, revealing his inner anxiety.
Faced with Onoki's questioning, Han answered methodically:
"Lao Zi has suffered extremely severe mental trauma and is currently in a deep coma."
"After a thorough examination by the medical ninjas, it is preliminarily estimated that he will need to remain unconscious for at least three full days before he wakes up."
"However, the Melting Lock Seal Technique did indeed play its due role."
"In the battle just now, we successfully withstood the combined ocular power suppression of Fugaku Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha."
"However, it seems that Lao Zi has encountered some kind of extremely special and powerful illusion attack."
"As a result, he fell into a coma instantly and completely lost consciousness, and the Molten Lock Seal did not work at all."
"We'll only know the specifics of what happened after Lao Zi wakes up."
Onoki focused his mind slightly: "Everyone, retreat and rejoin Huang Tu's team."
"In addition, intelligence was sent to Sunagakure and Kumogakure, and Zenku and Miroku were all found dead."
"Send out the information that Mizukage Yagura is currently on the battlefield as well."
"Yes!"
……
The Iwagakure forces moved swiftly, and after the fierce battle during the day, they suffered almost no losses.
At this moment, the team members were busy working nimbly, and only a little over ten minutes had passed.
All equipment and supplies were then properly organized, and they began their orderly retreat.
Choza, who had been circling and scouting around the Iwagakure team, was slightly taken aback when he suddenly received information from the Hyuga clan.
"The Hokage was right after all!"
Immediately afterwards, Ding gave the order:
"Pass on my order: the entire force shall immediately consolidate its defensive line and move toward the direction of Elder Fugaku's force to rendezvous."
Both Iwagakure and Konoha have clear tactical plans, like a chess game laid out in the open.
Onoki's side has excellent aerial reconnaissance personnel who can overlook the battlefield situation from the air;
On the other hand, Konoha has the "farsightedness" of the Hyuga clan, known for their exceptionally long-range vision.
As a result, both sides are very familiar with each other's movements.
Ōnoki was well aware of the incredible power of the Uchiha clan's Mangekyou Sharingan, and he was somewhat wary of it.
After careful consideration, he decided to temporarily set aside the current battle situation and first rendezvous with his own troops located in the rear.
What he didn't know was that Dingza was just bluffing; his purpose was simply to tie down Iwagakure's forces.
Therefore, although the two sides appeared to be at each other's throats, they did not actually engage in combat. Instead, they tacitly kept their distance, thus avoiding a direct confrontation.
And so, Ding led his team on a non-stop march for half a day.
They eventually managed to rendezvous with the team led by Fugaku.
At this point, Konoha only has two teams left: one is a thousand-strong force personally commanded by Chiyo himself, currently engaged in fierce battle with Sunagakure in the Land of Rivers.
The other team is the joint team that just finished their reunion.
The total number of people from Konoha who participated in the battle was only six thousand, but in reality, these six thousand people were the backbone of Konoha.
If we're talking about the largest group, it's definitely the village's genin (lower-ranking ninja).
However, on such a dangerous battlefield, the role they can play is probably nothing more than serving as worthless cannon fodder.
Unless they encounter a massive attack from a hundred thousand White Zetsu, like in the original timeline.
Otherwise, those genin who only know how to throw shuriken would never be sent to the battlefield.
After all, only when a ninja is promoted to Chunin can their chances of survival on the battlefield be significantly increased.
On the battlefield, Konoha's forces are distributed as follows: one side has only one thousand men, while the other side has five thousand.
Such a disparate ratio of people is undoubtedly highly illogical.
However, don't forget that Iwagakure has always been known for its expertise in coordinated group operations.
Moreover, in this battle, Iwagakure focused entirely on its two Jinchūriki.
Therefore, Konoha definitely needs to commit more manpower and troops.
In addition, there is a second special situation: the Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, Onoki, has also personally rushed to the battlefield.
Qianyao decisively ordered Dingza's troops to rush to join forces with the other troops.
The fact that the team from the Land of Rivers is small in number is not a particularly difficult problem.
Chiyo had already freed up his clone. With the powerful eye power of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, he could continuously transfer his own eye power and massive chakra to this clone.
In this way, the clone can use many more methods.
……
Within the Divine Might Space, all was quiet.
Obito stared blankly at the White Zetsu before him.
The white Zetsu's body trembled slightly, surrounded by a strange and unsettling purplish-black soul aura.
Without a doubt, this person was none other than the demon who had just experienced a fierce battle.
This battle was extremely brutal for the demons.
He thought victory was assured, but he never expected to fall into a trap carefully set by the enemy.
For Qianyao, Zenkong's arrival was merely a pretense of retreat, while the fake Maitreya was even more fearless, ultimately triggering a massive eruption of earth energy without any regard for consequences.
To make matters worse, a top expert from the Kaguya clan forcibly dragged him away and chose to perish together with the demon.
In that instant, the demon watched helplessly as its own body and that powerful member of the Kaguya clan were blasted to pieces, turning into countless fragments that dissipated into the air.
If Obito hadn't opened the portal to the Kamui dimension in time, allowing him to escape part of his soul, it would have been a different story.
He was probably already reduced to ashes in the continuous, violent explosions, his soul completely annihilated.
The demon successfully possessed the White Zetsu's body. Logically speaking, he should be extremely weak given his severe injuries.
Even speaking is extremely difficult for them.
Unexpectedly, he did not fall into a coma or become silent; instead, he remained unusually clear-headed.
"I actually got scammed..."
Suddenly, the demon began to mutter to itself, its tone filled with resentment and unwillingness.
"That Maitreya was just a shadow clone!"
It should be noted that only when the successor of the priestess is still alive can he maintain such a clear mind.
