Chapter 414: Betrayal
Shikamaru raised his second finger: "Second hypothesis, maybe they have some powerful secret weapon? Just like the chakra cannon before?"
Ino couldn't say for sure about this. The war technology of the Hidden Cloud Village was truly beyond belief. She wouldn't be surprised if they took out a nuclear bomb the next second.
Shikamaru raised his third finger, a trace of worry appeared on his face. He looked behind him: "The third hypothesis is that our allies behind us. If I were the Fourth Raikage, I would bribe or threaten the Hidden Mist Village with huge benefits and make them betray the alliance..."
Ino was stunned. Could this happen? She and Tsunade were not fools. Would they leave their retreat to the Hidden Mist Village? Impossible.
Gonbei of the Hidden Mist Village led more than two thousand Hidden Mist ninjas to fight with Tsunade. Only some ninjas with weak combat power and the Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi remained in the rear. After all, he was the kage of a village. If Tsunade was the Fifth Hokage, she would not be afraid. The problem was that she was not, so she could not use the Fifth Mizukage as her subordinate.
"Will Mei Terumi relapse?" Ino looked at Shikamaru very seriously. Shikamaru's brows were tightly furrowed. Every Kage-level strongman has the ability to influence the outcome of a battle, and Mei Terumi is no exception.
"What good will this do for the Hidden Mist Village? Carrying the stigma of breaking an alliance would be too fatal to the Hidden Mist Village, whose reputation is gradually rising." Shikamaru felt that there was something he couldn't understand.
"Ino! Shikamaru!" Choji ran over panting.
He pointed to the back and said, "Just now, a Kirigakure ninja handed a blue sword and a letter to the Mizukage. Then I saw the Mizukage's face change drastically. What do you think this means?"
Ino and Shikamaru looked at each other and saw the deep uneasiness in each other's eyes.
"Is it flounder?" the two asked.
Choji had met Chojuro before, but at that time he was focused on eating. You said flounder, he knew it, you said flounder knife? What is that? Shikamaru showed him the size of the flounder, and the fat man thought about it seriously, then nodded: "It seems to be this knife, I see the Mizukage's face is not good"
Not only the Mizukage had a bad look on his face, his two friends also had bad looks on their faces. The fat man didn't know what he had said wrong, so he covered his face and looked at them in surprise and suspicion.
"If the Fifth Mizukage betrays our alliance at this time, our army will be in danger!" Shikamaru racked his brains for a good strategy to break the impasse.
Ino quickly regained her composure. It was actually easy to break the situation. Shikamaru was too concerned and his perspective was always on a low level. He underestimated the ability of a Kage-level strongman to overturn the situation.
Mei Terumi can have a decisive impact on the battle situation, and her Yamanaka Ino can naturally make a comeback. What's more, Konoha now has many trump cards, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
She waved to Tuntun who was not far away, and Tuntun quickly ran over with Toadji who was sleeping in the shadow in his mouth.
She said simply and concisely, "Ji, I need to reverse summon Jiraiya-sama immediately."
Toad Ji was still quite reliable. He nodded vigorously: "I understand, but I'm still young and need your help."
"good."
With the strength of Fukasaku and Shima Sennin, it would be no problem for them to reverse summon Jiraiya. Gamakichi is too young, and his chakra is simply not enough to reverse summon Jiraiya. Fortunately, Ino, who is also good at summoning, helps.
Gamakichi bit his finger and performed the summoning ritual in reverse, and Ino provided it with chakra.
There was a light "bang" sound, and the white smoke dissipated. Jiraiya, who was still working at his desk, was reversely summoned to the Frost Kingdom.
"What happened?" Jiraiya saw that Ino and Shikamaru looked serious, so he asked quickly.
Ino, who already had a rough idea in mind, recounted the current situation.
"The teacher is still fighting in the front. The Hidden Mist Village also has sensory ninjas who can transmit information. If the Hidden Mist ninjas are fine, it will be fine. If there is a problem, the Hidden Mist ninjas will deliberately create chaos, and with the attack of the Hidden Cloud ninjas, the army will be extremely dangerous. Of course, the rear is also dangerous. Our wounded, some civilian ninjas, and ninjas who are not good at fighting are all in the back. I left one of my Flying Thunder God Kunai with Konohamaru. I'll go to the back to take a look."
Jiraiya had experienced many ups and downs, so he didn't look panicked at this moment. After thinking it over, he agreed with Ino's judgment.
He is the Hokage. Once the Konoha ninjas find themselves being attacked from both sides, with no way out and their morale plummeting, he can stand up and stabilize the situation.
He joins forces with Tsunade and is not afraid of any enemy. If that doesn't work, he can also summon Minato Namikaze, who also signed a summoning contract with Myoboku Mountain. With the strength of the three of them, they can completely turn the tide.
Ino also gave Shikamaru an order: "Organize some people, use any name, and go to the back to support me. I'll go first."
"good."
The next second, Ino sensed her Flying Thunder God Mark and immediately broke through the space and teleported over.
He had previously betrayed his alliance with the Sand Village and was discovered by Gekko Gale. He was then seriously injured and almost died. After more than a year of recovery, he still couldn't recover and had to switch to clerical work.
Returning to the battlefield, it is not known whether he is lucky or unlucky. This time, the Hidden Mist Village betrayed the alliance and was discovered by him again. Last time he faced the Hidden Mist Village senior ninja Maki, and this time the enemy is the Mizukage Mei Terumi!
"Mr. Mizukage! Aren't you afraid of bringing shame to the ancestors of the Hidden Mist Village by doing such a thing?!"
His entire body was covered with wounds. He was currently holding a samurai sword in his right hand, supporting his body with only his last bit of strength.
The gap between the two sides is too big. Not to mention that his body is like a porcelain bottle that will break at the slightest touch, even in his prime, he is no match for Mei Terumi.
Terumi Mei kept her hands in her sleeves, her figure still graceful, but when she heard Yueguang Gale's scolding, a look of embarrassment and anger involuntarily appeared on her face.
She had no choice but to give in when someone threatened her with the lives of the entire village.
This sickly guy is not her type. If she would have joked with him in the past, now she is in no mood at all.
She waved her hand, signaling her men to quickly kill the troublesome guy, and then cooperated with the actions of the Hidden Cloud Ninja to attack the Konoha Ninja from both sides.
A one-armed Mist Hidden Anbu ninja holding a strange long sword stepped forward, and with a flick of his wrist, his long sword was covered with electric flashes.
"Black Hoe Thunder Fang? You are still alive after being defeated by Asuma."
Even through the mask, Moonlight Gale could feel the madness and murderous intent in the other's eyes. His vision became more and more blurred. His two companions shouted and rushed forward, and Black Hoe Thunder Fang burst into hysterical laughter.
The long sword surrounded by lightning pierced the throats of the two ninjas at a very clever angle. Then he stomped on the ground hard, and like a streak of lightning, he swung the sword at Yueguang Gale's neck.
