Chapter 63 Target - Zewang Mountain
By the time Liu Yu and the others returned to Konoha Camp, it was already approaching evening. The Konoha team responsible for patrolling the eastern part of the camp these days often sees a three-person team returning in the evening. There are two women and one man in the team, and the male ninja among them often carries a Kumo ninja prisoner.
The patrol team couldn't help but admire them. While intercepting and killing enemies outside, they often had to be prepared to be hunted by the enemies. Teams that have been away from home in the past few days often have fewer casualties when they return, and there are also many teams that have been wiped out and never come back. It is rare for people like Liu Yu and others to return on time every time and often bring enemy prisoners with them. Other teams that can do this often have powerful jonins leading the team, but Riuha and the others are just a configuration of two chunin and one genin.
After the three of them returned to the camp, Riuyu went to the statistics department to hand over the results of the battle, while Kurenai accompanied Asuma to send the Kumo ninja to the intelligence department in charge of Yamanaka Haiichi. In addition to the information they know, prisoners themselves are also a precious war resource.
When Liu Yu reported today's results and prepared to return to his tent, he found someone waiting for him at the entrance of the tent from a distance.
As the distance got closer, Liu Yu felt more and more surprised. Because the person waiting for him in front of the tent was not her teacher Yamanaka Kaiichi, nor the acting leader of their Kussen clan, Namikaze Minato. It was actually Ken Shimura, the strongest man in the Konoha camp in the Moon Country before Minato came.
Judging from the situation, this guy obviously came to see me, but why did he come to see a chuunin like me? I’m not familiar with him either! Because the person in front of him shared the same surname as Danzo - Shimura, Liu Yu instinctively felt wary of this person.
"Do you have any orders from Mr. Ken here?" Due to the difference in status between the two, Liu Yu still asked respectfully.
"Are you Ryuu Kusanagi?" Ken Shimura looked at Ryuu and asked softly, his tone seemed to be questioning, but in fact he was sure.
"Um!"
"Then follow me!" The man didn't say much, smiled softly at Liu Yu, then turned around and motioned for Liu Yu to follow.
"Huh? It's different from that guy Danzo. He doesn't have that cold feeling." Looking at Shimura Ken's back, Liu Yu was slightly surprised. Then follow Ken Shimura's footsteps.
Soon, Liuyu was shocked to find that Ken Shimura actually took him to the conference room in the center of the camp.
"What are you doing here?" Seeing Ken Shimura motioning for him to go in, Liu Yu looked even more confused and muttered to himself in confusion. The conference room is used by Konoha's big guys for meetings, why would you want a little chuunin like you to do it?
Entering the big tent, Ryūha discovered that except for Shimura Ken who brought him here, the other two people in the conference room were all his acquaintances. One was the acting head of the Sosen clan, Namikaze Minato, and the other was his teacher Yamanaka Kai. one. Yamanaka Haiichi was drawing something famous on a map, while Namikaze Minato frowned slightly and was thinking about something.
Glancing at Shimura Ken again, Liu Yu couldn't help but murmured inwardly, "What on earth do you want to do?"
Namikaze Minato, Shimura Ken, and Yamanaka Kaiichi can be said to be the top leaders on the front line of Moon Country. The three lead the Konoha ninjas here to fight against Kumogakure. Three big guys actually summoned a little chuunin of their own? Although I have a relationship with the other two, I don't need this kind of formation!
"Ryuha is here!" Yamanaka Haiichi, who was discussing something with Minato Namikaze when he saw the two walking into the camp, stopped his hand gestures and greeted them instead. Namikaze Minato also turned to look at Ryūha and smiled gently.
"Teacher Haiichi, Teacher Minato, do you have any important mission for me this time?" Riuyu glanced at the teacher who was supposed to be in charge of the Intelligence Department and asked immediately. Looking at the three people in charge here, Liu Yu could only guess in that direction.
"Yeah! You're right." Yamanaka Haiichi knew that his student was smart, so he didn't want to hide it. Instead, he called Liuyu to come.
"Currently, we have about 4,000 ninjas in the Moon Country after additional reinforcements. This is the maximum support the village can give us when maintaining the balance on other fronts. In other words, we can no longer expect other support. ." The four people stood around the map, Yamazaka Haiichi explained.
"With the continuous reinforcements from the rear of the Kumo Hidden Village, there are currently nearly 6,000 ninjas on the front line of the Moon Country, and there may be more in the future. Therefore, we must take a preemptive strike and eliminate part of the Kumo Hidden Village before the reinforcements from the rear are arrived. effective force to win the initiative on the battlefield."
"Here is the second camp of Yunyin Village - Zewang Mountain. Currently, there are about two thousand Yunyin ninjas. Zewang Mountain has rugged terrain and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is where Yunyin Village lies on the moon. An important stronghold on the national front. And our goal this time is to eliminate the Yunyin troops in Zewang Mountain." Yamanaka Haiichi's hand continued to explain, and finally pointed at a point with a red cross on the map.
"If you want to capture Zewang Mountain, you must first deal with the surrounding Kumogakure sentry posts. Last time in Yuno Country, Kirigakure Village used the captured Byakugan to find out the specific location of the outlying sentry patrols, leaving the camp lacking a response Reaction time. Fortunately, a team finally responded and gave early warning, so the casualties in that battle were not too great."
"So this time our preliminary task is to find out the specific location of the sentry patrol outside Yunyin Village." At this point, the three people's eyes were focused on Liu Yu. The only one who can complete this task is the one with the hidden force. Liuyu.
Although Liu Yu is only a Chunin now, Liu Yu in the state of escaping is extremely concealed. Even the Abby combination of the Hidden Cloud Village last time could not find Liu Yu hiding around him. Therefore, in this case, sending Liu Yu to investigate the distribution of the Cloud Ninja sentries outside Zewang Mountain is the best choice.
"It's such a troublesome task!" Liu Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart after hearing it.
Konoha's current strength does not allow Konoha to use a strong attack to directly attack Zewang Mountain, which would cause too many casualties. If Zewang Mountain holds for a certain time, and the Cloud Ninja troops of Pu Jingqiao support in time, then Konoha will suffer a great defeat.
Therefore, Konoha can only use surprise attacks to deal with the Cloud Ninja troops of Zewang Mountain. The main force will surprise Zewang Mountain, and the remaining troops will harass the Cloud Ninja troops that Pu Jingqiao came to support.
The difficulty of the surprise attack is to grasp the specific location of the enemy's sentries. Fortunately, these are not a problem in front of Liu Yu who has escaping. At this moment, the advantage of the Invisibility over the Byakugan came out. In addition to the reconnaissance ability comparable to the Byakugan, the Invisibility also has a strong anti-perception ability.
So far, except for the Byakugan, there has been no case of the Invisibility being discovered by other types of perception ninjas. It can be said that this mission, facing the Hidden Cloud Village without the Byakugan, is simply too easy.
"I know." Looking at the expectant eyes of the three people, Liu Yu nodded. It is indeed the best choice for me to carry out this mission with the Invisibility. This mission is too dangerous for others, but it is really not difficult for me.
