"There will be a reward for guessing correctly. I'll give you five minutes to think about it."

Five minutes later, Inuzukao was the first to answer: "I guess the teacher has no money."

Let me go, the Inuzuka family's dog's intuition is really incredible, and he almost got it right.

Uchiha Hiro frowned and shook his head. He didn't think of a suitable answer, and he refused to make random guesses.

Nara Yoshino said hesitantly: "Cost or elimination."

After saying that, the three of them looked at Aburame Tetsumaru eagerly, but Aburame Tetsumaru raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "The enemy is coming. I will announce the answer after the battle is over."

The sound of the clattering, creaking puppet movement made people sleepy. Suddenly, a young sand ninja raised his head in confusion and looked at the mountains on the right.

"Boy, what's wrong?" a Chuunin Sand Ninja asked with slightly narrowed eyes.

"The sound of insects is a bit strange."

"Huh? The sound of insects is obvious. What's the problem?"

The leader Jonin heard the conversation between the two. He frowned but did not speak. Instead, he closed his eyes and listened carefully for a while. The sound of insects was indeed obvious, but it seemed too much.

The jounin raised his head in confusion and looked at the mountains on the right, recalling the information about the bugs in his mind.

The middle-aged chuunin over there is educating the young genin: "Boy, ninjas who are not skilled in stealth will scare the insects, causing the insect sounds to disappear completely, and it is difficult for powerful ninjas to completely avoid the insects, which will cause the insects to disappear completely. The sound was weak and incoherent.”

"The sound of insects like this is obviously because there are swarms of insects gathering over there. I don't know why, and I'm not familiar with this either."

"It's spring now, maybe it's mating. Oh, by the way, these guys don't know what mating is, huh? Hahahahaha." Another chuunin wearing a turban said something very colorful, Then laughed.

Suddenly, all the adult ninjas burst out laughing, teasing the young sand ninja by the way.

Some of the eight or nine young genin were confused, some were blushing, and some looked at the middle-aged people indifferently, looking at them like fools. The only genin who didn't smile was the student of the jounin captain. Although he was only twelve years old, he already had the record of several Konoha genin. He was the new generation elite of Sunagakure Village, so he was naturally very proud.

"Stop, be on guard!"

The Jonin didn't notice anything wrong, but he was cautious and felt that something unusual was a sign of danger, so he decided to deploy a defensive formation to avoid being caught off guard.

"Hmph, meeting a cautious guy is really troublesome."

Aburame Tetsumaru was unhappy. There was something special about surprise attacks and ambushes. For a transport team with a team length of less than 300 meters, the most difficult thing was to strike from the middle, because the formation was too short, which meant a head-on battle with the enemy.

The second most difficult thing is to attack head-on, because the enemy's attention will be focused on the front, and the strongest combat power will be close to the head.

The most suitable one is to start from the tail. The troops here are weak and relatively neglected, so it is easier to create an overwhelming effect.

It's a pity that the enemy stopped early. Not only did he not step on the mine bug, but his team's position could not reach the tail, so he could only choose to fight in the middle or the head.

[Wait for the enemy's reconnaissance team to come up, kill them first and weaken them a little, and then attack with all your strength. 】

"I'll go." Aburame Tetsumaru couldn't help but spit out the fragrance. The jounin didn't assign a reconnaissance team, but brought the team up himself.

For such a cautious and sophisticated guy, it seems that there is little chance of killing him all at once, so there is no need to take the risk.

Aburame Tetsumaru stood up, jumped to the mountain ridge, and shouted: "It's begun!"

Then he and three of his subordinates used ninjutsu at the same time to attack the climbing Sand Ninja Jonin team.

Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough

Fire Release·Hao Fireball

There were several kunai, which were thrown by Nara Yoshino and Inuzukao. They had this only method for long-range bombardment.

"Enemy attack, counterattack!"

The sand ninja jounin reacted very quickly and immediately used his ninjutsu.

Wind Escape·Wind Reverse

Obviously his intention was to bounce Aburame Tetsumaru's ninjutsu back, and use Konoha's wind release ninjutsu to defeat Uchiha Hiroshi's fireball. If the one versus two tactic was successful, the sand ninja would have the upper hand.

It's a pity that Aburame Tetsumaru is not an ordinary jounin. Thanks to his huge chakra and Orochimaru's teachings, his big breakthrough is extremely powerful, but it breaks the sand ninja's counter-attack ninjutsu in one fell swoop.

However, there was a puppet master in the sand ninja team. He immediately deployed a puppet and stood in front of all his teammates. He withstood the bombardment of wind blades and Go fireballs, and also blocked the attacks of several kunai.

Regardless of checking the damage of the defensive puppets, all the sand ninjas used ninjutsu to counterattack at the same time, but were shocked to find that the Konoha ninjas immediately retracted behind the mountain ridge line, and a large number of wind blades, wind balls, and wind cannons were shot away.

The next moment, there was a distinct crackling sound as if the puppets were moving again, and then countless large locusts climbed over the mountain ridge, began to jump and glide, and pounced towards the sand ninjas.

The Sand Ninja Jonin immediately realized that he had been cheated out of a round of ninjutsu, and no one had time to use ninjutsu again. He grabbed his student and called two of his subordinates to use the teleportation technique to retreat.

The moment they moved out of the way, their foothold was swarmed by dozens of migratory locusts.

Accompanied by the flapping of migratory locusts and their gliding wings, the clicking sound became even louder, and then countless shiny black poisonous needle beetles spread over the mountain ridges, and then attacked the Sand Ninja convoy in the valley.

All members of the Sand Ninja team teleported back to the convoy. At this time, the convoy had fully deployed its defensive formation. The transport puppets were connected to each other to serve as bunkers. All the mechanisms on the puppets were also opened and began to spray Qianbon.

"Obey my orders, prepare for a big breakthrough, form seals~~~~"

The jounin gave orders and organized the sand ninja to perform the same ninjutsu in unison in order to achieve the maximum killing effect.

"put!!"

Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough x19

Ninjutsu performed in exactly the same pace can achieve mutual amplification effects. Although the overall increase is far less powerful than joint ninjutsu, there is no possibility of ninjutsu failure.

Because combined ninjutsu has the possibility of failure, it is only suitable for elite and well-trained ninja troops, and ordinary ninja squadrons will not use it easily.

The nineteen great breakthrough ninjutsu brought up strong winds, accompanied by thousands of wind blades, which immediately pushed back the momentum of the insect swarm. The corpses of the insects soared backwards together with the insects, and the waves gathered by the insect swarm were forcibly repelled. More than forty meters.

When the sand ninjas in the valley saw this scene, they let out a sigh of relief.

"Haha, I was shocked to see you are so weak."

"The number of these bugs is really scary, but fortunately they are very weak. We must have killed thousands of them in one go."

"Be careful and don't relax. Bugs can be very powerful and poisonous. Everyone should be careful."

"clear!!"

The morale of the Sand Ninjas increased and everyone was smiling.

The three Konoha genin on the mountain ridge took a breath together.

"Teacher, that's not right. How come this bug is more fragile than the bugs trained for us? Isn't this a ninja bug specially used for fighting?" Uchiha Hiro's eyes were very good, and he soon discovered that it was not the enemy's wind escape that was powerful, but It’s the insect crispy skin of Aburame Tetsumaru.

"Yeah~~"

"What do you mean by 'favor'? Can we still fight this battle?"

The last battle was a well-designed ambush. Aburame Tetsumaru did not give the Sand Ninja a chance to counterattack from the beginning to the end. He suppressed the enemy until the enemy was completely annihilated, so no one noticed the insect's defense problem.

The sudden discovery of this shortcoming made the three genin panic, and they were unsure about the future and the Sunagakure army.

"Haha, don't worry, keep reading."

Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough

The swarm of insects was pushed back dozens of meters, then another round, and then a third round.

By the fifth round, most genin have no chakra, and the power of ninjutsu suddenly decreases.

The sixth round of breakthrough pushed back the insect swarm to less than thirty meters. The insect swarm rushed back faster, and the sand ninja's frequency of releasing ninjutsu could only increase accordingly.

After the tenth round of use of the Great Breakthrough, a loophole appeared in the connection of the ninjutsu effects, and bugs began to slip through the net. The puppet masters operated the puppets to launch poison and senbon to kill the bugs that slipped through the net.

At this time, the laughter and laughter of the sand ninjas completely disappeared, and everyone had a heavy look on their face, but they could still hold their own.

The fourteenth round of breakthrough had just pushed back the insect tide, and instantly a large number of insects fell into the open space like sand. The sand ninja was immediately frightened and was in a hurry, and various ninjutsu detonating symbols were outputted at random.

After finally holding his ground, the jounin had time to raise his head in confusion, his expression suddenly dull.

After fighting for so long, I don’t know how many bugs have been killed, but more and more beetles and locusts are crossing the mountain ridge. Even the beetles that can only crawl have been stacked up to a thickness of half a person’s height, so that the top beetle It didn't rush down at all, but was pushed down by other beetles.

The stacked swarms of insects were towering and trembling, and could collapse at any time to form a "insect avalanche". In an instant, tens of thousands of insects would hit the sand ninjas in the valley, and a mere thirty sand ninjas would be unable to resist.

The Sand Ninja Jonin took deep breaths continuously, swallowed hard, and finally made a judgment.

"Yusi, Koichi, you come to assist me, the others hold on."

The jounin summoned his two subordinates to his side and quickly explained the situation and his plan. The two chuunin looked up at Shan Ling, and their faces turned pale with fright. They only agreed with the captain's plan and nodded repeatedly.

Walking to the front of the puppet and facing the swarm of insects, the jounin took a final deep breath and began to form seals. This sealing method was quite complicated. The key was that the jounin was obviously a little unfamiliar and it took a lot of time.

During this period, due to the lack of three main ninjas, the number of bugs that slipped through the net increased rapidly. A dozen puppets had no time to completely kill them, and the bugs that broke through launched an attack on the Jonin who was standing in front.

Fortunately, two Chunin subordinates stood in front of the Jonin and knocked down the attacking insects one by one, ensuring that the Jonin could successfully perform ninjutsu.

"Get out of the way."

Wind Escape·Shen Biao

The clouds in the sky instantly turned into a spiral shape, and then a huge hurricane shattered the clouds and fell from the sky to the center of the insect swarm in front of the sand ninja, covering it all the way to the back of the mountain.

The insects all over the hillside were rolled up layer by layer by the hurricane and crushed in the air. The white hurricane instantly turned into light green. As more and more insects were drawn in and crushed, the color of the hurricane became more and more intense. Darker and darker, until it becomes completely opaque black.

The hurricane lasted for a full five minutes before it exhausted all its energy. The hurricane gradually dissipated, and the insect limbs and corpses that covered the sky fell. There was a rain of insects throughout the valley.

This A-level ninjutsu made all the sand ninjas freeze up in shock. It was not until their heads were hit by falling insect corpses that they regained their senses.

Yuzu and Hikari, two chunin, supported the captain who was weak and weak. Their faces were red with excitement and they cheered loudly.

Led by the two chunin, all the sand ninjas yelled and waved their hands excitedly, celebrating their own escape from death and winning a difficult victory.

The heads of three Konoha genin were quietly revealed on the mountain line. They secretly glanced at the excited sand ninja in the valley, marveling at the terrifying ninjutsu that had just ended.

But they looked back at the valley on their side, and sighed together: These sand ninjas were happy too early.

The sand ninja's hurricane was amazing and shocking, but it only killed more than 40,000 bugs, which was only one-eighth of the bug swarm? Maybe one in six?

On the contrary, with the hurricane that reached the sky and the earth as a reference, the three genin more intuitively understood the horror of the bugs that filled the valley.

They are dead.

Following Aburame Tetsumaru's cold orders, Wuyao Wuyao's insect swarm turned into waves again, rolled over the mountain ridge, and then poured down. The locusts were still bouncing and gliding, and the beetles swept along the slope.

The swarm of insects that had not changed at all came in again, and the cheers of the Sand Ninjas suddenly got stuck in their throats. Their whole bodies stiffened, and they stared motionless at the swarm of insects, completely dumbfounded.

Until the hoarse voice of the jounin roared: "Fight, fight, the sand ninja should fight to the death and never lose courage."

Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough

A Wind Release, even a Jonin's Wind Release, only clears away the bugs within a thirty-meter radius, which is really insignificant damage to the insect tide.

But this wind escape awakened all the sand ninjas. After they woke up, they no longer had any fear in the face of death. The brute strength hidden in their blood to fight against the desert for survival burst out.

All the sand ninjas fought with all their strength, throwing out ninjutsu, ninja tools, sealing talismans, and poisons without hesitation. The puppet master no longer cared about the wear and tear of the puppets, and commanded the puppets to launch a counterattack against the insect swarm, until they could no longer attack the swarm and directly self-destructed.

At this time, the Jonin came to the back of the sand ninja queue and grabbed his disciple and two other young ninjas.

His lips trembled, and he suppressed his emotions forcefully, and said: "We have lost. Someone must bring the information to Fengying. Fuyi, I order you to hide and wait for reinforcements to rescue you."

"No, teacher, I want to fight, I want to fight, I will never be a deserter!" The cold boy completely broke his guard and growled with tears streaming down his face.

"The information must be conveyed to the village, otherwise more compatriots will be killed."

The sand ninja roared back with a louder voice, and ordered angrily: "In order to pass on information, we need to fight to the death. This is our responsibility, and we need to be patient and wait for help. This is your responsibility."

"Remember, this is an order and it is also your unshirkable responsibility."

After saying that, he stuffed three genin under the age of fourteen into the vacated box, then dug up the ground and buried the box deeply.

In an underground cave about 30 centimeters away from the box, a shadow clone of Aburame Tetsumaru touched his nose and said, "Hey, why am I being so sensational, as if I am a villain."

Obviously we are two feudal empires competing for hegemony, and besides, it was your Sunagakure Village who took the lead in invading the Land of Fire. It’s so embarrassing to say how righteous you are when you are about to lose.
