Chapter 472 Detonation Tag
After receiving Chiyo's plea for help, Rasa of Sunagakure sped up his pace to join Chiyo and the others.
This isn't the first time Susanoo has appeared in the ninja world.
The Sand Village had naturally researched several ways to counter the secret technique that had already been exposed.
But not here in Chiyo.
Because the Susanoo I fought before wasn't this big.
The difference between a four- or five-meter-tall skeleton and a thirty-meter-tall giant is too great.
Chiyo quickly received the message bird from Onoki, and then immediately sent a message to Rasa.
Because the two teams were separated by the Land of Rivers, the messenger bird still arrived in half a day.
When Rasa saw the intelligence report that Onoki's side had already surrounded and killed Zenku, he felt a sense of exhilaration.
Zenku's special attack against Jinchuriki was of little use against Rasa.
However, Zenku is the Akatsuki's second strongest fighter. If Zenku dies and the Akatsuki doesn't react...
This means the intelligence we received earlier was true; Payne is dead!
This undoubtedly eliminates the uncertainties surrounding this ninja war.
Rasa and the others also sped up and joined Chiyo and the others.
On the other side, at the Cloud Village's base.
At that moment, the Raikage had just received a message from a messenger bird from Iwagakure.
After reading the intelligence report with a solemn expression, he handed it to Tu Tai without hesitation and asked urgently:
"Tsuchitai, what are your thoughts on this intelligence?"
Tutai received the intelligence, quickly scanned it, pondered for a moment, and then calmly analyzed it:
"In my opinion, if the reinforcements from Iwagakure can arrive in time, then this news is likely to be true and credible."
"However, if they send a small number of people, it could just be a false pretense."
Raikage nodded slightly, indicating his agreement with Tsuchikage's point of view. Then, he decisively issued the order:
"In that case, we can't delay any longer; we can set off immediately!"
Based on the information currently available, Konoha Village has mobilized almost all of its core forces this time.
If they weren't short of troops, they would never have reached a cooperation agreement with the Akatsuki organization, allowing the Akatsuki to be responsible for defending against our Cloud Village's attacks on the border.
It's worth noting that the Akatsuki organization had recently attacked Konoha, but now they're being hired by Konoha.
"Akatsuki, huh."
The Raikage couldn't help but snort coldly, clearly quite dissatisfied with the Akatsuki's actions.
"Has the village's defense deployment been arranged?"
The Raikage turned to look at the earthen platform.
After all, his biggest concern in leading his army on this expedition was the vulnerability of his rear, which the enemy could exploit to take advantage of.
Tu Tai nodded confidently and replied:
"Don't worry, Raikage. Everything has been arranged."
"Even if Yagura dares to attack again, we will definitely make sure he doesn't get the slightest advantage."
Hearing Tsuchikage's words, Raikage felt somewhat relieved.
"Alright, let's not delay any longer, let's set off! I want to see for myself what this Akatsuki organization is capable of to stop our progress!"
With that, the Raikage waved his hand and led a large group of elite ninjas from Kumogakure on their journey.
……
On the battlefield in the Land of Rivers, intelligence gathering through Kagura's Mind's Eye and Byakugan has revealed that Sunagakure is constantly retreating.
They prepared to rendezvous with Luo Sha's team.
He deliberately let Zenku die on the battlefield so that the Jinchuriki who possessed the power of the Tailed Beasts could unleash their full potential and engage in battle more boldly.
At the same time, Zenku's death also indirectly confirmed the important fact that Pain was dead, thus making them more daring in their attacks.
At this moment, both Sunagakure and Iwagakure have committed almost all of their village's military strength.
This war was on a scale that could be considered a full-blown Ninja World War.
Meanwhile, the Hidden Cloud Village must have made some moves as well.
Despite the complex and intricate battle situation, Qianyao appeared confident and composed.
And they already had a complete set of coping strategies in mind.
He decided to focus his efforts on dealing with Sunagakure and Iwagakure first, while leaving Kumogakure for last.
Chiyo was not overly worried about whether the Akatsuki could successfully stop the Hidden Cloud Village's attack.
He knew that Konan's strength was not to be underestimated, and that she alone was more than capable of temporarily holding off the Cloud Village's offensive.
Not to mention the other Akatsuki members.
If we can buy enough time, we can deal with Sunagakure and Iwagakure after that.
If they turn their attention back to confront the Hidden Cloud Village with all their might, a crushing defeat for the Hidden Cloud Village is almost inevitable.
……
The fertile and rich soil of the Land of Fire is simply incomparable to that of the Land of Hot Springs.
When people set off from the Land of Hot Water to the Land of Fire, they cross a very prominent border.
Along a section of this road, trees and vegetation are unusually sparse, as if nature had forgotten about it in a corner.
Suddenly, there was a loud "boom" sound; it turned out that an explosive tag had been triggered.
The members of the scouting team from Hidden Cloud Village stopped in their tracks and warily surveyed their surroundings.
One of the team members picked up a stone and threw it into the distance, trying to see if there were any other hidden dangers.
However, to their surprise, another detonation tag exploded.
"They even set up such a dense array of explosive tag traps!"
One of the team members exclaimed in surprise.
Immediately afterwards, another team member said:
"Quickly notify the main force to halt their advance. A few of us will go and check the situation first."
So the team quickly sprang into action, cautiously approaching the direction from which the detonation tag would explode.
Before long, after completing their reconnaissance, they arrived at the camp where Raikage was located.
A team member strode into the tent and respectfully reported to Lei Ying:
"Boss, a large number of explosive tag traps have been spotted ahead."
Upon hearing this news, Raikage, who had been sitting upright in his tent, frowned, a look of doubt appearing on his face:
What's so special about these traps?
For them, encountering various obstacles during their journey is a common occurrence.
But since someone came specifically to report this, these traps must be extraordinary.
The team members standing below quickly replied:
"Based on the current investigation, the types of traps are not particularly special, but their numbers are astonishing."
"We have discovered that the area within a full three kilometers ahead is filled with explosive tag traps."
Three kilometers!?
Upon hearing this, Lei Ying was startled.
He wondered to himself, just how many explosive tags would it take to set up such a massive explosive tag trap!
In an instant, a thought came to mind:
Could this be Konan's doing?
After all, three years ago, when Konan attacked Konoha, everyone had witnessed her overwhelming and countless explosive tags.
