Along the way, the Sand Ninjas chased after Konoha's Ninjas. This tug-of-war didn't end because of the death of one or two people. Instead, it became more and more intense.
The death of one person didn't make them stop, but it made their anger even more turbulent. If Konoha's Ninjas started out because of the mission, then now because of the death of their companions, they wanted the Sand Ninjas to fall into a well-planned trap.
The same was true for the Sand Shinobis. Their unwillingness to die made them even angrier. Killing one or two of Konoha's Shinobis wasn't enough to vent their anger. They needed more blood to quell the anger in their hearts.
The chase continued, and from time to time, people died, whether it was Konoha's Ninjas or the Sand Ninjas. However, compared to the Sand Ninjas, Konoha's Ninjas had Uchiha Chen's Wood Clone. Some of the people who were pleasing to the eye were saved by him one by one.
The number of casualties of the Sand Ninjas was increasing. At this moment, many people realized that Konoha's Ninjas may have some unknown conspiracy, such as the future Kazekage Rasa, Sasori, and their hero Pakura.
When they felt that Konoha's Ninjas didn't fight them head-on and chose to retreat, they felt that there might be a trap, but the current situation didn't allow them to give chase. There were deserters in front of them, and their companions who were blinded by anger. Even if they had seen through Konoha's conspiracy, they couldn't do anything.
They could only send a signal flare, but the signal flare didn't attract anyone's attention in this night of war. In desperation, they could only send a message back to the Sand Ninjas and ask them to urgently send reinforcements.
They didn't know what Konoha's Ninjas were doing, but they knew that with their current manpower, they might not be able to survive.
Even so, the Sand's reinforcements won't arrive in a short time. Before that, they had to try their best to ensure that the Sand Ninjas weren't at a disadvantage. This was a difficult journey, but for the Sand Ninjas, they had to do it, even if they had to sacrifice everything.
The Sasori of this world wasn't like the Sasori of Chen's world. In order to pursue eternal art, he betrayed the Sand and killed the Kazekage. The Sasori of this world was loyal to the Sand. Even if his parents died, he didn't become depressed. Instead, he became more determined to kill Hatake Maoso.
In his view, instead of defecting, it is better to rely on the power of the Sand, so that he can compete with Hatake Mao Shuo.
The gap between them was so big that Sasori was desperate. If he didn't rely on the Sand's power, he would be nothing in front of Hatake Maoso.
The chase was still going on, which meant that the Sand were stepping into the grave that Konoha, Hatake Maoso, and Shikaku Nara had dug for them.
When the last group of Sand Ninjas arrived at the plains not far from Kikyo, Hatake Mauso and Nara Shikaku stood on a high mountain and observed their movements.
"Are you ready?" Hatake Maoso couldn't help but whisper to Shikaku Nara.
Shikaku Nara frowned as he observed the Sand's movements. After thinking for a long time, he said: "Wait, they haven't all entered yet."
"Wait?" Hatake Maoso seemed to have thought of something: "Have the residents of the city been evacuated?"
"This …" Shikaku Nara paused for a moment and said with some difficulty: "Because of the real reason, we didn't inform the residents of Kikyo to evacuate."
"What!" Hatake Maoso was taken aback and reprimanded Shikaku Nara: "Such a big thing, and you didn't inform them in advance? Didn't you say that you must inform them? "
Hearing Hatake Maoso's words, Shikaku Nara smiled bitterly and shook his head: "There was no time to inform them. Because of Uchiha Chen, our command center was completely paralyzed for nearly a week, and there was no time to inform the residents of Kikyo. "
Speaking of this, Shikaku Nara paused for a moment, and it seemed that he didn't know what to say because of Uchiha Chen. After three seconds of silence, he sighed again and said: "Because of Uchiha Chen, all the people who knew about this matter were seriously injured and were hospitalized in the medical tent. Because of confidentiality reasons, no third person could know, so this matter was delayed, and the evacuation order was delayed."
"Then why didn't you say it earlier?!" Hatake Maoso pulled Shikaku Nara's collar and shouted at him: "Why didn't you say it earlier? Why did you have to say it now?"
Shikaku Nara didn't resist and let Hatake Maoso pull his collar and lift him up. He endured the pain and said: "I'm sorry, I just thought of it. When I was about to tell you, everyone had already set off. At that time, even if I spoke again, it would have been useless."
"Then you should have told me first!" Hatake Maoso let go of Shikaku Nara's collar and said coldly: "So now? The mission is lifted, and it is considered a mission failure. Tell all the ninjas of Konoha that their current mission is to intercept all the Sand Ninjas outside of Kikyo Town. They are not allowed to take half a step into the town! "
"It's already … too late!" Shikaku Nara smiled helplessly and said: "Have you forgotten? Just a while ago, a large number of Sand Ninjas were led into Kikyo Town by us. Now it doesn't make much sense to evacuate, so we can only bite the bullet and carry out the mission. "
"No!" Hatake Maoso rejected Shikaku Nara's proposal and said firmly: "There are still residents in the town, and we must not carry out the mission in the town. We must drive them all out of the town! Start giving orders now, let all the Konoha ninjas present go to Kikyo Town to expel the Sand Ninjas who have already entered the town. I don't believe that Konoha can't beat a Sand Ninja! Even if we don't rely on these little tricks, dealing with the Sand Ninjas will be a piece of cake! "
"Maoso-sama …" Shikaku Nara hesitated and didn't know what to say. All the words he wanted to say turned into a deep sigh.
