"Well, just put it here."
The Great Elder nodded and said, "If the Konoha Twins come to attack the village again tomorrow, you will use this to deal with them."
"How to use the Amber Purifying Bottle? Did the Second Elder and the others teach you?"
"I've already told my subordinates. It's very simple."
"Although the Amber Purifying Bottle is relatively simple to use, you still have to be careful." The Great Elder said solemnly, "When the time comes, seal Hatake Akira first. It would be best if both brothers can be sealed at the same time. If not..."
"Seal Hatake Akira in and evacuate immediately!"
The Great Elder's idea was very simple. In his opinion, Hatake Akira posed a far greater threat to the Hidden Cloud Village than Kakashi.
Of course, this doesn’t mean that Kakashi is not strong, but Kakashi’s strength is all in frontal attack.
As long as the number of people reaches a certain level, no matter how strong Kakashi is, the Hidden Cloud Village is confident that it can use the human wave tactics to wear Kakashi down.
But it’s different for Hatake Akira, who possesses the Flying Thunder God Technique. The human wave tactic is completely useless to him.
Come as you please and leave as you please, Hatake Ming is born in an invincible position.
Although the Great Elder has prepared a large-scale sealing technique in addition to the Amber Bottle, this sealing technique that can block time is still in the experimental stage and no one can predict its effectiveness.
If there is even a one in ten thousand chance that this large-scale sealing technique might have problems, it would be an unbearable loss for the Hidden Cloud Village.
Who knows whether Qi Muming and others will hold back when they attack Yunyin Village tomorrow.
The Great Elder is planning for tomorrow as if it were the final battle, and has done his best to fill in all possible loopholes.
"Yes, Great Elder!"
The Cloud Ninja nodded, "I have arranged the personnel. Once they succeed, they will take the Amber Purifying Bottle and evacuate immediately."
"Ah."
The Great Elder nodded, then looked around the Hidden Cloud Village with a deep gaze that had been destroyed beyond recognition.
"Whether the Amber Bottle can be used tomorrow will determine the life and death of the Hidden Cloud Village!"
……
In the territory of the Land of Hot Springs, the frontline troops of the Hidden Cloud Village.
"Ugh!"
Todai sighed, "The thing I least wanted to see happened..."
Tsuchiya is of the same generation as the Sandaime Raikage, and he also experienced the Second Shinobi World War.
Although he was only the deputy and bodyguard of the Sandaime Raikage during the last war, through whispering and seeing and hearing, Toshiro's knowledge naturally increased day by day.
There is no shortage of smart people in the world. What Minato Namikaze can think of, Toshiro can naturally think of as well.
But the problem is that Minato Namikaze can think and do it, and because of the presence of Hatake Akira, the probability of success is almost 100%.
But it’s hard to say about Todai.
Even though he guessed that the Konoha side would steal his home and attack his own material transportation supply lines, Toshiro did not have any effective way to deal with it.
War means death, especially war between ninjas.
If the advantage of a ninja's personal strength can be offset by the absolute advantage in personnel on a large battlefield, in a small-scale encounter or ambush, the ninja's personal strength is far greater than the advantage in numbers.
The local leader can't station a large force on the transportation route just to protect the material transportation supply line, right?
And we can't withdraw most of the front-line personnel and send them back to the Hidden Cloud Village to garrison in order to prevent the house from being stolen, right?
So, when Todai learned the two pieces of news, he was more unwilling and angry, and did not show any surprise.
"Kirabi, there is some very bad news."
Toshiro glanced at Killer Bee, "The supply transportation line has been cut off, all the supplies have fallen into the hands of Konoha, and the village... has also been attacked."
"What?!" Kirabi's eyes were as big as copper bells, "When did it happen?"
"The material transportation supply line was cut off yesterday, and the village was attacked by the Konoha Twins today."
"It's the brothers Hatake Akira and Hatake Kakashi again!" Killer Bee clenched his fists, "I must kill them!"
"Stop bragging for now..." Tudai didn't look down on the curious rabbi.
Hatake Akira alone is enough to give Killer Bee a hard time, not to mention Kakashi who is good at frontal assaults.
Toshiro was very afraid of the Flying Thunder God Technique that was being played to perfection by Hatake Akira. After being deeply developed by Hatake Akira and Namikaze Minato, this technique has become more and more rogue.
Mowing the grass, invincible!
Hurry up, it's okay.
Once the Flying Thunder God Seal is left in a certain place, Konoha will have unparalleled mobility.
When this prerequisite is met, Akira Hatake's role in the war will be irreplaceable.
What's even more outrageous is that the Flying Thunder God Technique can be used to transfer various things.
For example: Tailed Beast Ball, Jinchūriki, personnel, etc.
It can be said that as long as Hatake Akira or Namikaze Minato are present, the top ninjas of the enemy ninja force may be transferred out of the center of the battlefield at any time.
Moreover, the distance can be far or near, depending entirely on the mood of Hatake Akira and Namikaze Minato.
From the above, we can understand the frustration that Todai felt at this time.
Obviously, our side has the advantage in personnel, but because of the presence of Hatake Akira and Namikaze Minato, this advantage cannot be brought into play at all!
And they will be led by the nose in return!
"Now is not the time to risk everything, and there is no point in continuing this war." Todai shook his head, his expression full of dejection.
"No! We still have the advantage. As long as we send some ninjas back to defend the village, I am confident that we can break through the defense line of Konoha Ninja!"
Kirabi would not give up for any reason, and he was still trying to persuade Tudai.
But it is obvious that Toshiro will not let Killer Bee's few words shake the foundation of the Hidden Cloud Village.
As the saying goes, as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. As long as the Hidden Cloud Village is still there, they will get their revenge one day.
only……
I will never see Todai again in this life.
"Kirabi, that's enough!" Todai yelled at Kirabi, "Don't let hatred affect your judgment!"
"Do you believe it or not, Konoha has already started preparing to attack us? Do you think we still have a chance of winning given the difficulties both internally and externally?"
"Without Kirabi, we're defeated! Already defeated!"
"The moment A died, we showed signs of decline, and when the Sandaime Raikage died, we lost hope of winning."
"And Konoha's raid on the village this time is the last step that led to our complete failure!"
"This last step... has now been completed..."
Toshiro was disheartened. "What I am thinking about now is not how to win this battle, but how to end it decently and how to preserve more heritage for the future of the Hidden Cloud Village."
"If we continue to fight against Minato Namikaze's troops on the front line, the important intelligence, various materials, ninjutsu, seal books, etc. in the village will all fall into Konoha's hands!"
"By then...the Hidden Cloud Village will be destroyed, Killer Bee!"
"I..." Kiraru was in mourning, "I understand..."
After a moment of silence, Kirabi looked up at Todai again, "So what should we do next... is the whole army retreating?"
"Do you even need to ask this?" Todai felt a little disappointed. There was nothing wrong with Kirabi's IQ, but his tactical sensitivity was too low.
"But before we retreat, I have an important mission for you." Tudai pointed at Kirabi, "This is also your last chance to wash away your shame."
"You say." Kirabi's eyes lit up slightly. It is always good to be able to make amends for a crime.
"I will lead the large troops to evacuate first, and you will be in charge of the rear!"
Toshiro's plan was clear at a glance. He expected that Namikaze Minato would take this opportunity to launch a large-scale attack and try to replicate the pattern of the previous two battles.
After understanding all this, the subsequent arrangements made by Tudai were very reasonable.
After the main force of the Hidden Cloud Village evacuated first, Killer Bee had no worries and could maximize his tailed beast combat power!
Namikaze Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique can indeed transfer the Tailed Beast Ball, but without the large army of the Hidden Cloud Village, Namikaze Minato can't transfer the Tailed Beast Ball to his own camp, right?
"Don't worry, Tudai, fewer people are more conducive to my strength!"
Kirabi understood what Todai was thinking in an instant.
Moreover, this battle was also the first time that Minato Namikaze was untied from Hatake Akira. Killer Bee was confident that he could use his status as a jinchūriki to suppress Minato Namikaze in a one-on-one fight.
However, looking at the confident Kirabi, Todai was still a little worried.
But he couldn't say anything too discouraging at this time, so Todai could only say politely, "Be careful in everything you do. If something happens to you, the future of the Hidden Cloud Village... will be difficult!"
"I understand." Kirabi nodded.
"By the way, you need to pay attention to one more thing." Todai added, "You only need to delay Minato Namikaze's troops for one day."
"Remember, I will be able to lead the troops to withdraw to a relatively safe distance in just one day. You can evacuate on your own at that time. Don't fight to the end!"
“I know my priorities.”
After hearing Killer Bee's repeated nods of assurance, Toshiro finally felt relieved, and then he summoned all the captains of the Cloud Ninja Force to a meeting.
Chapter 182 Kirabi is left behind.
The rising sun shone through the mountains and forests, casting a ray of orange-red light on Hatake Akira's face.
Opening his eyes slightly, Hatake Akira stretched.
"Kakashi, how was your rest last night?"
Turning his head and asking Kakashi beside him, Akira Hatake stood up and looked around.
"You had a good rest." Kakashi put away the Snow in his hand and put it behind his back, "Shall we set off now?"
"Let's eat something first."
After replying to Kakashi, Akira Hatake then waved to Hyuga Hizashi, "Uncle Hizashi, come here."
Hinata Hizashi hurried over, "What's wrong Ming?"
