Chapter 458

"Cough, ah …"

Jiraiya, who was almost pushed away, barely managed to maintain his body and landed on the edge of the tent, staring at Tsunade with wide eyes.

'Why the hell is she worried about Maple's safety?

Maple is Orochimaru's disciple, how is Tsunade related to Maple?! '

Tsunade noticed Jiraiya's gaze and shrugged, "I received a lot of care from Somao-senpai in the past, so I can't just ignore his child."

The corner of Jiraiya's mouth twitched.

Maple said helplessly, "Actually, Tsunade-sama doesn't need to worry about my safety, I'll be fine."

He could understand Tsunade's behavior. After all, after three days of 'treatment', not only was he a healer, but his relationship with Tsunade had also become much closer. If he died on the battlefield, then not only would Tsunade's Hemophobia not be cured, even the results of the previous treatment might instantly worsen, and she would return to her previous state.

"Shut up …"

Tsunade glared at Feng Ye in annoyance and said, "I've heard this kind of thing countless times, but most people have accidents after saying it. You're making me even more worried."

Except for Mute, no one would report information about Maple to her, and Mute had been following her for the past year, so her understanding of Maple was basically the same as it was a year ago.

And in the process of contact with Maple these days, she confirmed that Maple's Chakra is almost at the level of a Jonin.

Although this level of strength is extremely powerful for Maple's current age, and indeed deserves the title of a genius, but on the battlefield, the title of a genius can't be used to protect one's life.

Even if it's an elite Jonin, there are still countless people who die on the battlefield.

She couldn't just sit back and watch Maple die on the battlefield.

So, with Mute staying in the camp, she decided to participate in this war.

"…"

Hearing Tsunade's words, Maple wanted to say that it's someone else, not him. With Sand's current state, even if he took out a Shoukuko, it wouldn't be able to do anything to him, unless Uchiha Madara or the Sage of the Six Paths suddenly jumped out.

But after thinking about it, he decided not to complain.

Otherwise, it would be troublesome if they really jumped out.

Finally, he helplessly said: "As long as you're happy."

Jiraiya looked at Maple, then at Tsunade, and finally asked worriedly, "Is there really no problem with your condition?"

"Well, there's basically no problem."

Tsunade turned her head to look at Jiraiya and said: "I won't joke about this kind of thing."

Jiraiya sighed and said: "That's good."

…

The next day.

Sunny day.

A large number of Konoha's ninjas left the camp, divided into multiple batches, and rushed towards the Sand Village's camp, launching a full-scale attack.

With such a huge commotion, it was naturally impossible for it to be carried out quietly.

After Konoha's troops left the camp for about twenty miles, the Sand Village's scouts quickly passed the information back to the Sand Village's frontline camp, which also caused a shock in the camp.

However, the Hidden Sea has long predicted that Konoha will launch a full-scale attack in the next half a month, so the Sand Ninjas responded very quickly. The entire camp was quickly mobilized, and under the leadership of Kazekage and Chiyo, they rushed to the battlefield.

This is the third Shinobi War since the start of the war.

The Sand Village invested more than 3,000 ninjas, and they were personally led by the Kazekage. Except for the Tailed Beast's Jinchuriki, almost all of their elites were used.

The Sand Shinobi Village had invested more than 3,000 ninjas, and they were personally led by the Kazekage. Except for the tailed beast's Jinchuriki, almost all of their elites had been deployed!

The Sand Village invested more than 3,000 ninjas, and they were personally led by the Kazekage. Except for the Tailed Beast's Jinchuriki, almost all of their elites were used.

Konoha's side also mobilized more than 2,000 elite ninjas, although it's not much compared to the total number of Konoha's ninjas, almost all of them are elites.

Genin like Uchiha Obito and Kurenai stayed in the camp and did not participate in the frontal battle. Only Kakashi, who served as a Chunin, received the order to follow the team to participate in the battle.

The location of the battle between the two sides was in a hilly area, the terrain was relatively flat, and the distance between the highest point and the lowest point was no more than a hundred meters.

Standing at the highest point.

Countless ninjas could be seen running from two directions. One side was wearing Konoha's ninja uniform, mainly green, and the other side was wrapped in white headscarves to block the wind and sand. At first glance, it was clear that they were ninjas who survived in the desert environment.

"Report! The first and second units encountered the enemy! "

"Report! The fifth and sixth units encountered the enemy! "

The troops on the left and right flanks were the first to encounter the Sand ninjas, and the battle information was quickly passed to Jiraiya.

At this time, Jiraiya was standing at the highest point, and his eyes flashed as he looked at the many Sand ninjas in the distance.

Kazekage!

Elder Chiyo!

These two were the most powerful ninjas of the Sand Village, and they were both on the battlefield!

"They gave up on the flank … No, the requirement for the flank is to withstand the attack, and they intend to push their combat power to the front and break through from the front …"

Jiraiya suddenly understood the strategy of the Sand Village.

The other side has made such a preparation, and now he can't change the strategy and transfer Minato back to the front. The key to victory is whether the enemy's flank collapses first or the center of their army collapses first!

Thinking of this, Jiraiya showed a sneer.

If Tsunade wasn't here, it would be troublesome for him to deal with powerful ninjas like Kazekage and Chiyo alone, and the outcome of the war would still be in suspense.

But now Tsunade was here, and as one of the Sanin, he was very clear about Tsunade's strength … She was strong enough to withstand the impact of the Sand ninjas!

"I'll leave the flank to you … Do your best, Minato!"

A glimmer of light flashed in Jiraiya's eyes, and then he took a deep breath and shouted: "Third Unit, Fourth Unit, Fire Release ninjutsu!"

Along with Jiraiya's order, about a dozen Konoha ninjas rushed to the front of the line, their hands quickly printed, and fire chakra surged.

"Fire Release! Dragon Fire Technique! "

Dragon Fire is a linear ninjutsu, but when the dragon fire is connected together, it becomes a large ninjutsu like a raging sea of fire.

Due to the geographical environment of the Land of the Wind, there are very few ninjas in the Sand who are good at Water Release. At this moment, in the face of Konoha's Fire Release, the movement of the Sand ninjas in the front suddenly stopped.

But the next moment.

The ground directly in front of them suddenly surged.

The grassy ground was completely crushed into dust and sand. In an instant, it surged up and turned into a sand waterfall that rushed towards the sea of fire.

"Well done!"

Yondaime Kazekage glanced at his wife, and after a loud shout, he pressed his hands on the ground and activated the Magnetic Release ability, a large amount of gold mixed with metal appeared and surged towards the Konoha camp.

If he only knew how to play politics, he wouldn't have been able to sit in the position of Yondaime Kazekage. Being able to become the Kazekage, he also has a powerful strength above countless ninjas.

Crash!

A large amount of gold sand surged, and Konoha's ninjas continuously released Fire Release, Earth Release, and other ninjutsu, but they couldn't stop it, and soon several people were swallowed by the gold sand, screaming.

"As expected of the new Kazekage of the Sand Village …"

Jiraiya's eyes flashed, and he suddenly rushed towards Rosha.

He can't let Rosha use this kind of large-scale ninjutsu to wreak havoc, otherwise, no one in Konoha can stop Rosha's ability.

"Humph!"

Seeing Jiraiya rushing over, a cold light flashed in Rosha's eyes, but he wasn't afraid, he manipulated the gold sand into countless sharp bamboo shoots, crisscrossing and piercing towards Jiraiya.

This was a decisive battle.

There was no tentative attack.

The first one was the Kazekage Rosha against Jiraiya, a confrontation between the leaders of the two forces!

And at the same time when Jiraiya and Rosha faced each other, it also means that the war has completely entered the most intense state, thousands of ninjas on both sides broke out with a fierce momentum and Chakra, colliding with each other.
