Chapter 22 Chasing
Along the way, Lu Ming was frowning and thinking. After all, the pressure this time was indeed a bit great. The other side had four more Genin. It would be very troublesome if he didn't deal with them first. If he dealt with them in advance, it would alert the enemy and consume some chakra.
Therefore, this mission is a bigger trouble for Shilang and his team, and if they want to complete the mission with the least losses, it is indeed a challenge for Lu Ming at this time.
Yes, Lu Ming is now looking for a method with the least losses, because Lu Ming has already thought of dozens of ways to complete the task, but they will all involve losses and have not yet reached the best solution in Lu Ming's mind.
"Shiro, I saw in the information yesterday that you have the contract scroll for Longdi Cave. Have you signed it?"
"After signing, what do I need to do?"
"Then I'll leave the intelligence investigation to you, is that okay?"
Shiro did not answer immediately, but made an estimate first. After all, he had just signed the contract and was not very familiar with the snakes in Longdi Cave. He had to think about it first. After all, the battlefield did not allow any negligence.
It didn't take long for Shiro to sort out the summoned beasts that would be useful at that time, but it was only a part of it. After all, there was too much information obtained from Longdi Cave, so Shiro could only sort out the useful ones first.
After roughly estimating the chakra consumption, Shiro replied, "No problem. Moreover, if I use enhanced ninjutsu, my vision limit is about 800 meters, and the effective range of the bow and arrow is about 300 meters!"
Lu Ming and the other two looked at him in surprise. Although this distance was not as good as the Byakugan, it was enough for normal combat. The information only mentioned that Shilang was more outstanding in this aspect, but the three did not expect it to be so outstanding!
Lu Ming narrowed his eyes and said, "This way, Taiyi's combat power can be fully unleashed!"
"Shiro, what else are you good at? Tell me and I'll check the information!"
"No problem. Currently, I'm good at group combat, one-on-many combat, and long-range sniping! I also have decent physical skills, and I can roughly reach the level of a Chunin." (This refers to pure physical skills Chunin. There are some, but not many, such as Teacher Chen)
"A group fight?" Lu Ming thought for a while before asking, "Can you handle four Genin at once? How much combat power will you still have left?"
"As long as the information is accurate, I can kill them instantly! But there won't be much chakra left, and most of my taijutsu are based on enhanced ninjutsu."
"Is that so? Then the plan is confirmed! Nakamura-sensei will be responsible for dealing with the other side's jonin! Taichi and I will hold off the three chuunin on the opposite side, and Shiro will be responsible for the four genin. After we deal with them, Shiro will first assist me in killing a chuunin remotely, and then go to assist Taichi. This is the final battle plan. Any questions?"
"No!" x3
"Very good, then hurry up! We still need to rush over and make arrangements. We need to ensure that the other party will follow our final plan!"
Since we know that Shiro's combat capability is stronger than the information says, the plan naturally needs to be changed!
The main reason for this change in plan is that Taichi's combat power has been released. You know, since the death of their former teammate Matsumoto Jiro, Taichi, who opened the Sharingan, has taken on the task of reconnaissance and perception. After all, the battle of ninjas is all about intelligence.
It is totally worth sacrificing a little combat power in exchange for more detailed information. However, with Shiro's joining this time, Taichi's combat power can be released. After all, even if it is just a one-magatama Sharingan, combined with Taichi's original expertise in illusion, it can be said that there are few people among the Chunin who can be his opponent!
Therefore, after learning about Shiro's actual combat power, Lu Ming immediately overturned the previous plan. After all, if Taichi was responsible for reconnaissance, it would consume a lot of chakra and have a great impact on the combat.
After Lu Ming made the plan, Nakamura's team was able to move forward at full speed.
But even so, a week had passed when Shiro and his friends arrived at River Country. Naturally, the group of rebel ninjas also left their original town. After all, they were rebel ninjas, not bosses in the game, so they would not stay there and wait to gain experience.
They still knew their identities, so they had been fleeing and moving their positions. However, even though they had the presence of senior ninjas, they were still a little short of getting rid of Konoha's intelligence department.
Therefore, their approximate address is still known to Konoha, and after Shiro and his team obtained the latest information, they rushed there as quickly as possible.
Finally, two days later, Shiro and his men successfully caught up with them in a small town near the border of Kawanokuni. However, Shiro and his men did not attack them immediately. Instead, they went to a hotel in the town to stay and collect intelligence first.
After all, in a head-on confrontation, Silang and his men would be at a disadvantage, and the other side would not be foolish enough to divide into teams according to Lu Ming's plan. Therefore, Lu Ming still had to collect some information to formulate a plan.
To ensure that the final plan can be implemented.
After arriving at the hotel room, Shiro immediately bit his finger, formed a seal, and then slapped it down.
"The art of spiritual communication!"
The creature Silang summoned was a small snake that was specifically responsible for gathering intelligence. It was very small, less than half a meter long, and might not be suitable for combat, but it was very convenient for reconnaissance.
Shiro first cast a spell on the gray snake's head to connect his hearing with the gray snake's, and then sent it out.
This technique was obtained by Shiro in Ryuchi Cave, and it contains mostly ninjutsu that can be performed together with the summoned beasts of Ryuchi Cave.
Unfortunately, during this period of time, Shiro only learned this one, but it was barely enough.
After a while, Shiro received the information from the gray snake through the ninjutsu just now. After knowing that the gray snake had found them, Shiro made a gesture, indicating Lu Ming and the others to pay attention and record it.
After that, he made hand seals to connect to the gray snake's hearing. Moreover, because this technique did not require hand seals to maintain the connection, after Shilang connected to the gray snake's hearing, he used sign language to simultaneously translate it to Lu Ming and the others.
In a room of a nearby hotel, four people were sitting at a table discussing something. They were the Jonin and Chunin from the group of rebel ninjas, but they were not wearing forehead protectors.
But this is normal. As long as you defect, it doesn't matter whether you wear it or not. But if you are not a big boss, it is best not to wear it. There are many small ninja villages in the ninja world that want to please the five major countries.
If you don't have the ability but still want to pretend to be awesome, then you can only say GG in advance.
But it was obvious that this group of people knew what was going on and none of them wore forehead protectors.
"Captain, how long will this last? Hiding from the enemy every day? We've already left the Land of Fire. There's no need to be so cautious, right?" One of the tall Chunins complained.
Indeed, in order to avoid Konoha's intelligence department, they have been hiding from each other every day and basically have not had a good day. No wonder he complained so much.
"Just bear with it for a while. As long as we get out of the Land of Rivers, Konoha won't cause us any trouble in the short term. Just bear with it for a while."
"Captain, shall we continue on our journey?"
"Well, we're here now. We just need to hurry and get out of the Kingdom of Rivers. Once the four of them come back, we'll set off immediately!"
Although the other three were very tired and wanted to rest here, they also knew that what the captain said was right. Konoha currently had a lot of things to deal with. As long as they left the Kingdom of Rivers, Konoha would no longer have the energy to take care of them.
By then, as long as they keep a low profile and don't cause trouble, the village will no longer care about them in a few years. Unfortunately, what they don't know is that Silang and the others have caught up with them.
