Chapter 190 Are you ready?
A few days later, the Konoha front encountered a large-scale attack by the Cloud Ninja.

At the beginning, senior ninjas such as Jiraiya, Fugaku and Shikaku thought that this was just a feint attack by the Cloud Ninjas, and similar feints had been carried out many times.

The purpose was to divert the attention of Konoha's elite troops and then take the opportunity to attack Konoha's main camp.

But as the border outposts lost contact one after another, Jiraiya and others gradually realized that something was wrong. This time, it seemed that the Cloud Ninjas were not making a feint attack, but were really going to attack the Konoha camp.

At this time, the Hyuuga ninja who was heading to the front line for reconnaissance walked into the command room.

Jiraiya noticed the Hiashi jonin who was in charge of the investigation and asked quickly, "Hiashi jonin, are the Kumo ninjas really heading here now?"

Hinata almost nodded:

"The insight of the Byakugan will not lie. I did see hundreds of ninjas rushing towards the camp. The chakra of the leading ninjas was extremely huge. They should be the Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki."

Jiraiya nodded, he trusted Hinata Hizashi's judgment.

Although this Hyuga clan's Jonin is a ninja from the Hyuga branch family, in terms of strength he is as strong as the Hyuga family head, Hyuga Hiashi. The two are even twin brothers.

At this time, Nara Shikaku seemed to remember something and asked Hyuga Hizashi: "Are there only two people whose chakra has reached the level of the tailed beast? Is there no third person?"

Hinata Hizashi shook his head: "There are only these two people. The Two-Tails Jinchuriki Yukito is not in the team. He may still be in the Land of Fire."

Hearing this, Nara Shikaku and Jiraiya looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

Uchiha Fugaku on the side said: "Hizashi Jonin, Yukito died at the hands of Shisui a long time ago, so of course she will not appear in the team."

"Yukito is dead?" Hinata Hizashi rolled his eyes.

As the information was kept secret for the time being, the news of the death of the Two-Tails Jinchuriki has not yet been announced to the public. On the one hand, Yukito's body has not been found, and on the other hand, the Konoha high-level officials do not want to anger Kumogakure.

Jiraiya nodded and said:

"Yukito is indeed dead. This large-scale attack by the Kumo Ninja is probably due to this. But if the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee are leading the team, I'm afraid it will be very difficult for us to win this time."

“It was very hard to win…”

Hinata Hizashi fell silent, which was Jiraiya's more euphemistic way of putting it.

In fact, on the battlefield of Kumogakure, Kumogakure has always held a very big advantage. On the one hand, it is because there are more Kumogakure jonin, and on the other hand, the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee are too powerful together.

At this time, Akimichi Choza seemed to remember something and asked Jiraiya, "Master Jiraiya, has the Hokage not sent anyone to support us yet?"

Jiraiya's face changed slightly, and he shook his head and said, "The village still has to defend against attacks from Iwagakure and Kirigakure. We don't have any extra manpower for now, and the current manpower is already the limit."

Hinata Hiashi asked in confusion: "What about Lord Orochimaru? Why didn't Lord Orochimaru go to the frontline for support? Isn't it enough to have Shimura Danzo and Mitokado En in Iwagakure and Kirigakure?"

"I don't know. Orochimaru seems to have disappeared recently. There isn't much news about him."

Jiraiya was also very helpless. The intelligence network he was so proud of was unable to find Orochimaru's whereabouts recently, which made him very frustrated and worried.

After hearing that it would be difficult for the village to provide support, the morale of the ninjas present undoubtedly dropped a lot.
If there wasn't a second Kage-level warrior, they might really not be able to resist the AB combination.

Although the Ino-Shika-Chou teamed up to fight against a Kage-level warrior for a short period of time, they were only able to fight against him. There was also a Jonin team of similar strength in the Hidden Cloud Village that could contain them. At this time, Uchiha Fugaku spoke:
"Commander-in-chief Jiraiya, the Kumogakure party is coming with great force this time, but the village is not without the ability to resist. If nothing else, we Uchiha can still delay the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki for a while."

"And last time Shisui was able to take out the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, the Uchiha will be able to take down the Eight-Tails."

After Uchiha Fugaku said this, the expressions of Shikaku and others were a little subtle, but it was not a good idea to undermine the morale at this moment.

Shisui is a good Jinchuriki in solving the problem of the Two-Tails, but his water content is extremely high.

Without Byakuya's assistance, there was no way Shisui could have defeated and killed the Two-Tails Jinchuriki.

For the sake of village unity, everyone can admit Uchiha's achievements, but Uchiha must be aware of the situation.

At this time, Jiraiya seemed to remember something and said, "Bai Ye should be staying near the camp recently. If Bai Ye is willing to take action, we may have a chance to defeat Kumogakure."

Nara Shikaku said: "If the Hidden Rain Village is willing to take action, it can naturally change the situation of the war. But how does Master Jiraiya intend to persuade Byakuya? This battle is different from the previous ones."

"Real men are attracted to each other..."

Jiraiya said confidently: "I believe that Bai Ye will firmly stand on the side of justice."

Faced with Jiraiya's speech full of complaints, Nara Shikaku felt helpless but could only choose to believe that if everyone really united and introduced foreign aid, it would not be difficult to overcome this crisis.

Seeing that everyone ignored him, Uchiha Fugaku clenched his fists.

It was precisely because the rest of the ninjas in the village looked down on the Uchiha that he wanted to gain more credit, become the fifth Hokage of the village, and avenge the humiliation he was experiencing at this moment.

After exchanging information, Jiraiya and other jonin began to discuss tactics.

If Konoha chooses to ambush, with the advantage of terrain and the ability to wait for the enemy to tire themselves out, Konoha should be able to win the first wave of attack.

But if the opponent chooses to bomb with the Tailed Beast Ball directly, ambush by gathering people will only make them sitting ducks...

……

While Jiraiya and others were discussing tactics, the Konoha Anbu also found Byakuya outside the military camp.

At this time, Bai Ye was staying with Shisui, his eyes looking towards the location of the Land of Lightning, and no one knew what he was thinking.

At this time, Bai Ye noticed the Anbu behind him, frowned and asked: "Any new errands?"

The Anbu knew Bai Ye's ability, and nodded quickly and said, "Master Jiraiya asked me to tell you that the Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki are heading this way."

"If you can, please help Konoha. If you find it difficult, Lord Byakuya can leave now. There is no need to participate in the war between Konoha and Kumogakure."

Bai Ye was stunned at first, then he smiled and said, "Jiraiya is good at provoking people. Don't worry, I won't leave. I still want to fight the Fourth Raikage to see how strong he is."

Hearing this, the Anbu nodded respectfully and then returned to the command room to report the intelligence.

After the Konoha Anbu left, Bai Ye looked at Shisui who was standing beside him and said calmly: "Shisui, a big battle is about to begin, are you ready?"
