Chapter 53:

Of course, Jiraiya is not stupid, he can also analyze the current situation. Although Konoha ninja is dominant on the surface, but after all, Konoha's number is still too small, having only a few hundred people. Even though they are all elite troops, it is still unrealistic for them to think about taking over Suna Village.

Moreover, the opponent still has strong elite jonins and even third kazekage that had yet to make a move… Taking advantage of their small victory now, it is the best choice for them to retreat now.

"Okay, I'll send a signal now, let's retreat!" Chakra surged from Jiraiya as he hand sealed and said: "Fire style, dragon flame bomb jutsu!" Jiraiya blew a fire that shape into a dragon into the sky, illuminating the sky. This was the retreat signal Akira agreed with the Konoha ninjas. After Konoha ninjas saw the fire dragon flame bullet signal, they all began to retreat.

The Konoha ninjas retreat were orderly and quick.

Whereas, Suna obviously was not able to organize an effective counterattack, so they could only watch as Konoha ninjas retreat, one by one. However they were actually feeling relieved and rejoicing over the fact they are alive after the sudden raid.

Akira carried Sasori and controlled the hypnotism of Sasori, making him fall into a deeper sleep.

Jiraiya also looked Akira carrying Sasori, somewhat curiously: "Is this Chiyo's grandson?"

"Yes." Akira nodded.

Only then did Minato know that the child Akira had caught was Chiyo's grandson and was surprised that Akira had actually caught Chiyo's grandson!

Jiraiya also smiled suddenly: "With the grandson of Chiyo in our hand and the results of our battle tonight, this time the plan is simply a success! Akira, this is all your credit!" Thinking of the results of the battle tonight, Tsunade's crisis will be resolved soon, which made Jiraiya feel good and relieved.

Akira shrugged: "It's just good luck that everything went as planned and expected." Akira was in a good mood, catching Sasori is actually a unexpected gain(it was not in his plan, it was a sudden idea), with Sasori as a hostage, his plan will be more perfect.

"You are too humble, the battle just now was really fun, and the dumbfounded eyes of those ninjas in Suna are really funny…" Minato smiled.

Jiraiya also laughed along with it.

Jiraiya and Minato both showed their sincere admiration when looking at Akira, this time it was really thanks to Akira. Akira's ingenious plan has achieved great results and now the entire Suna Village is in a mess. The Four countries have been fighting in Ame for so long, but there have yet to be any forces attacking the enemy village? Konoha can be said to be the first! All of this is Akira's credit.

…

Just when Akira, Minato and Jiraiya were talking and laughing happily. Whereas there is only silence in Kazekage tower in Suna Village. The elder councils and upper echelons of Suna all sat around a large round table, while the third kazekage sat in the middle, wearing the kazekage hat and cloak while frowning.

"What the hell is going on, how could Konoha's ninja suddenly attack our Suna village!" Third kazekage shouted sharply.

The several senior Suna officials next to him, look at each other and all point their heads down in silence. Suna Village was attacked and they were also shocked.

"This time Konoha ninjas are all elite, at least several hundred people was in the raid, they were well prepared and their offense has caught us off guard, so we suffered a big loss…" one of the high-ranking Suna official said in a solemn voice.

In addition, the sand hidden ninja cautiously said: Kazekage sama, our elite ninjas are currently in the country of rain, so the defense in the village is weak and Konoha had taken the opportunity to take advantage of it."

"The current situation is grim and Konoha's ninjas might continue to sneak attacks. We should recall some of the elite ninja troops in the country of rain, otherwise it is really dangerous for the village…"

"Yes, I support the recall of ninja troops."

"Chiyo's puppet bridgate should be transferred back first, so there is a way to deal with Konoha's raiders."

Third kazekage face became more and more gloomy and finally he said in a deep voice: "Pass my order, let the puppet bridgate led by Chiyo and the elite ninja squad fighting in the country of rain return to the village temporarily, in case Konoha comes to attack again!"

"Yes kazekage sama!"

All as Akira expected, third kazekage began to recall the Suna elite forces.

…

"Akira, what shall we do next?" Jiraiya asked.

Akira squinted his eyes while carrying the sleeping Sasori and said with a smile: "Suna Village must be heavily guarded now. Maybe they are still on high alert and looking out for further attack from us. With Suna village on high alert, it won't be easy for us to deal with them and we have already achieve our intended goal so we of course should go and support Tsunade and deal with Chiyo."

"But didn't you say that Suna Village would recall Chiyo and the puppet bridgate, why do we need to go support Tsunade?" Minato couldn't help but asked.

Akira glanced at Minato and said, "Anyway, we now have Chiyo grandsons as hostage. No matter what Suna plans, we still have the advantage."

"That said, let's go and support Tsunade now!" Jiraiya nod his head repeatedly and his eyes lit up with excitement.

He didn't immediately went to rescue Tsunade before was because he was worried that Chiyo had ambushes and traps set up waiting for him. But now that they had captured Sasori as a hostage, they have an extra trump card to use so naturally he don't have to worry anymore.

Akira squinted his eyes, thinking about the meeting with Chiyo and seeing Tsunade again, he felt a little excited.

"It shouldn't be too late, we will rush over now!" Jiraiya said.

Akira also agreed: "Well, you only need to bring a strong group of elites." Akira looked at the sky and unknowingly dawn was gradually rising from the east. It seem like the two sides have fought fiercely in Suna Village for a entire night.

"No problem."

Jiraiya also quickly selected the most elite group of ninja and immediately rushed to the battlefield in the country of rain. Of course Akira and Minato were among them. Not to mention Akira, after this battle, the Konoha ninja who participated in this battle look at Akira with admiration. The Konoha ninjas all know that the person who came up with the tactics this time is Akira, so these Konoha ninjas are very impressed with Akira and respect him very much. Akira's current reputation is rapidly increasing.

This was something Akira didn't expect. It was an unexpected gain and it is good for him to have good reputation and not bad one.

Passing through the border of land of wind, Akira and others encountered some of Suna ninjas along the way and they were all easily resolved. Finally, in the evening of the next day, Akira and others arrived in the country of rain.

The sky is overcast and rainy, the weather in the country of rain is still bad and annoying to be in.

However, compared to the bad weather, Akira's mood gradually became better as he is excited to finally see Tsunade again!
