Chapter 81: Information (Edited)

The rain did not stop because of the war.

In addition, thick dark clouds, always carrying an infinitely depressing atmosphere, enveloped the entire sky.

As Naito continued to attack, he visibly improved.

At first, he was not as skilled in Tremor Release: Shock Throw, but as the battle progressed, he was already using it as if he had used it a thousand times.

At this moment, even the Elite Jounin could not withstand the attacks.

It was like a water balloon, whenever a hole was made, the balloon would easily collapse next.

Naito stopped swinging the sword in his hand, and with a flash of his figure, he charged forward, and suddenly threw a punch.

For a moment, the rain froze in the air and the ground shook as if struck by lightning.

The two Jounins and the Iwagakure Elite Jounin, who could no longer support themselves, could only reveal their despair at that moment.

"Monster..."

Boom!!!

The shockwave erupted, sweeping across everything until it reached the two Jounins and the Iwagakure Elite Jounin.

Under the shockwave, the two Jounins and the Iwagakure Elite Jounin could no longer resist and were killed.

Their bodies fell to the ground.

At this moment, the elite troop that had ambushed Naito and the others was slaughtered!

The scene was shocking.

Although the fight was over, the rain did not stop falling from the sky and began to wash away the blood left on the ground from this fierce battle.

Naito stood there silently as all that could be seen around him were the bodies and blood that made it look like hell on earth.

However, Naito's body did not have a drop of blood on it.

In the distance, the two, Yamanaka Oyuki and Asano Senna, who had only been watching since the battle broke out and were not even qualified to intervene, stood frozen in place as if their bodies were petrified.

All they had on their faces was disbelief.

Senna muttered, "...Dead? They are all dead?"

Oyuki replied, "Naito, he's actually strong enough up to this point, I'm afraid the Captain... no, even the Captain wouldn't know this!"

If before, Naito's strength and talent were monstrous, it was still within the scope of comprehension.

So now, Naito's strength is beyond comprehension!

At this age, with that kind of strength, Naito was a killing machine who was born to shine in war!

Turning around slowly, Naito walked calmly past the corpses of the Iwagakure ninjas, did not stop, and kept walking until he reached Horitsu's body.

At that moment, Asano Senna and Yamanaka Oyuki finally moved and arrived at Naito's side, letting go of all the feelings they had.

"This is a war, death is inevitable, if it wasn't him, it would have been one of us," Naito muttered in a low voice, with his face covered by the mask, no expression could be seen.

Then, Naito turned around in the rain, without looking back, and said, "Clear the battlefield and let's go."

"Yes!"

Asano Senna and Yamanaka Oyuki responded to Naito's orders and began to clear the battlefield.

Even they themselves did not realize that at that moment their attitude seemed to naturally become that of subordinates, with Naito as their superior.

After cleaning their traces and decapitating the heads of the Iwagakure ninja and sealing them on a scroll, Yamanaka Oyuki and Asano Senna silently followed Naito and left the place.

Once again, as they looked at Naito's back, they couldn't help but look at him with respect, no longer treating him as a burden because of his age.

The only thing that remained in their minds was respect.

...

Rain Country.

The only place to set up camp here was high ground, not in a low valley where it is easy to hide.

Because low valleys are where water collects.

Konoha's camp was on a high hill, but it was not temporary, this place was their headquarters of operations for a long time.

It was more like a small village.

In the center of this camp, was Konoha's command tent for the Second Ninja World War.

Hatake Sakumo stood silently in front of a sand table, analyzing the situation on the battlefield.

Secretly, he was also the Anbu Captain of Konoha's Anbu department.

On the surface, he was an Elite Jounin with more seniority than Orochimaru and others, and he was also the frontline commander of this war.

It was at that moment that a ninja burst into the room.

His body was covered in wounds and dripping blood.

Sakumo looked up instantly and, without needing to ask, the wounded scout was quick to blurt out the information he risked his life to obtain, "Sakumo-sama, after fighting with the Iwagakure ninjas, it was later revealed that one of Iwagakure's elite assassination troop had penetrated deep into our defenses, undetected by us."

"Is there such a thing?"

Sakumo revealed a trace of surprise.

An elite assassination troop had infiltrated near their camp, so the target had to be an important member of Konoha or one of Konoha's elite troops.

If the ambush succeeded, the consequences would be unthinkable.

If an Elite Jounin like Orochimaru or Jiraiya were to die, it would have a great impact on the situation on the battlefield.

Sakumo quickly asked, "Did you manage to determine the approximate location?"

The ninja reported, "It's approximately northwest, but I couldn't determine the specific location."

"Okay, understood, you can go and recover," Only then Sakumo nodded and waved his hand, and immediately a ninja from the medical squad entered and helped the injured ninja out.

At the same time, she immediately summoned several of the intelligence and sensor ninja to an urgent meeting.

With analysis and deduction, the general area of the ambush was quickly identified.

Against an elite assassination troop, Sakumo dared not be careless, and finally decided to play it safe and attack himself.

But at that very moment, someone burst into the room.

To dare to barge into the room in this grave situation, he should not be an average person.

It was Danzo, who was also one of the frontline commanders, however, Danzo was always working undercover where he carried out several assassinations, and rarely intervened directly in the frontline battlefield.

The front lines were led by Hiruzen and Sakumo.

"Hatake Sakumo, you can't leave," Danzo refuted Sakumo's decision.

Sakumo replied in a deep voice, "We are equal here, there are no special cases, casualties include everyone, if an enemy troop is in our territory, we can't let them go any further, we will attack with everything we have to assassinate them."

Danzo frowned and said, "We are still in the first stage, fighting with small squads, if you go out now, the news will spread to the other Great Ninja Villages, would you like them to know that there is no one left to protect Konoha?"

"Of course not," Sakumo calmly looked at Danzo, who really was right, and a pinch of chakra came out of her body, emitting pressure and said, "By killing them all, no one will know that I came out, besides, I'll use another identity."

Danzo was silent for a moment, and at Sakumo's resolution, he could only nod at the end, but with an unpleasant expression on his face.
