The opponent's number of strong individuals was clearly greater than Konoha's. If she remained still, she could restrain the enemy. However, if she joined the battle, the opponent's Chiyo, Ebizo, and even Hanzo would all enter the fray, making the situation even more dangerous for Konoha.
Therefore, she covered the slug on her shoulder with chakra.
At the same time, the slug, splitting into countless tiny individuals, used its own ability to transmit Tsunade's chakra to every ninja on the field.
Mass Healing!
Instantly, the previously injured and exhausted Konoha ninjas felt reborn. Sensing the healing from Tsunade, they turned around and rejoined the battle.
Thanks to Tsunade's Strength of a Hundred Seal and mass healing, the Konoha side, despite being significantly outnumbered, stubbornly resisted the onslaught of the Sand and Rain ninjas once again.
Sand Ninja Camp.
"Sister, the Konoha ninjas' condition is not right."
Ebizo, leaning on his cane, squinted his eyes and said to the old woman beside him.
Chiyo calmly nodded, "This is that little girl's technique. It's alright, she won't be able to maintain it for long. Once she can't hold on anymore, that's when we will win this war!"
As someone who had clashed with Tsunade many times during the Second Shinobi World War, Chiyo was quite familiar with Tsunade.
She also acknowledged Tsunade's strength.
However, with the overwhelming advantage in numbers, Tsunade wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
Ebizo glanced at the Salamander Hanzo, who was not far away, closing his eyes and leaning against a tree, and couldn't help but frown.
He had personally communicated with the Rain ninjas and reached an agreement to join forces, but Hanzo showed no intention of joining the battlefield at all.
Clearly, the Rain ninjas just wanted to profit from it, and it was impossible for them to take the lead and suffer heavy casualties.
Even so, Ebizo had to rely on Hanzo.
After experiencing the painful failure of the Second Shinobi World War, Hanzo had also learned his lesson.
This time, the Sand ninjas were at the forefront of the assault.
Following Ebizo's gaze, Chiyo also looked at Hanzo and shook her head imperceptibly.
As long as Hanzo and the Rain ninjas didn't stand on Konoha's side, even if they didn't move a single soldier, they had to communicate well. Moreover, the Rain ninjas had already entered the fray.
"We will expand the war on our side. As long as we gain even a slight advantage, those two old guys, Onoki and the Third Raikage, won't be able to sit still. Want to wait for us Sand ninjas to charge first? Hmph! We'll show them!"
Perhaps, the Sand ninjas could directly win this war through this battle!
Thereby tearing off a coveted piece of prime marbled meat from the huge fat of Konoha.
Turning her head to look at the direction of the battlefield again, hatred gradually appeared in her eyes, and she squeezed out two words from between her teeth, "Konoha!!!"
Her feud with Konoha was known throughout the entire shinobi world.
...
On the other side.
Qifeng and Shizune carefully approached the Konoha camp.
They entered a small forest, attempting to use the forest as cover to slowly approach.
Suddenly, Qifeng's expression changed slightly, his brow furrowed for a moment, then quickly relaxed.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Three figures suddenly appeared in front of the two, and the aura of killing was undisguised, rushing towards them.
Shizune was startled.
Qifeng looked up and saw three ninjas wearing pale masks.
Anbu?
No, it's Root!
Qifeng's heart was tense, but he still smiled and said in a simple and honest voice, "Everyone, we are on the same side."
As he spoke, he pointed to the Konoha forehead protector on his head.
The next second.
Accompanied by the endless sound of air being torn, dozens of Root ninja figures appeared around Qifeng and the two, one after another. An old man leaning on a cane slowly walked over.
Seeing the person coming, Qifeng quickly lowered his head, concealing his shrinking pupils.
Root leader, Danzo!
Danzo's sharp gaze swept over Qifeng and Shizune, and he asked in a deep voice, "You, what are you doing here?"
Faced with Danzo's unapproachable appearance, Shizune was frightened and didn't know how to speak.
Qifeng took a step forward, lowered his head, and said respectfully, "We are corpse collectors. We were assigned a mission by Lady Tsunade, but there were some accidents during the mission. The Sand ninjas and Rain ninjas..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was directly interrupted by Danzo.
He just waved his hand, "I already know. You follow me."
As soon as he finished speaking, he got up and rushed towards the direction where the Konoha camp was located, and the Root ninjas also followed closely behind.
Qifeng and Shizune had no choice but to obediently follow behind the Root troops. Moreover, behind them, Qifeng faintly felt that there were several Root members monitoring them.
However, he had no intention of escaping.
Now that Danzo led the Root ninjas to come to support, then the crisis on the Konoha battlefield should be resolved.
It wouldn't be so dangerous for them to go back.
What puzzled him was, why was Root's support so fast?
You must know that traveling from Konoha to the Land of Rain is much farther than them returning from the Mist Forest to the Konoha camp.
Then there is only one possibility.
Danzo knew in advance about the alliance between the Sand ninjas and the Rain ninjas, and he guessed that the Konoha ninja army might suffer heavy losses, so he set off to support in advance.
Then, what role does Danzo play in this coalition of Sand and Rain ninjas?
Chapter 70 Danzo's Conspiracy (Seeking Collection, Recommendation, Monthly Pass)
Would Hiruzen Sarutobi sacrifice many Konoha ninjas for his own personal gain?
The answer is no.
