Chapter 497: Changes on the Eastern Front~Operation Tail Slashing

"Let me go to the Eastern Front? "

In the Kikyoyama Fortress, Fujiwara Tetsuya had just repelled Rasa and Chiyo and returned to the camp.

He ran into the deputy head of the Anbu, Sarutobi Shinnosuke, who was acting as a messenger.

Carrying the latest appointment given by the village, Fujiwara Tetsuya turned his head and looked at Orochimaru.

"Shinosuke has just told me, although... I am also unwilling, but there is no way."

"After several months of fighting, the situation on the eastern front has not improved at all, but has become more and more corrupt."

"Shinosuke just said half of it..."

"The one who served as the commander of the eastern front and the Hyuga clan... died."

"Not only died, but also lost an eye to the Hidden Mist Village..."

"Tetsuya, you should know... what this means to the Hyuga clan? "...Listening to Orochimaru's explanation, Fujiwara Tetsuya didn't expect that during the time when he was hiding in the Kikyo Mountain Fortress, training...torturing Rasa, so many things happened on the eastern front.

The fight between the Uchiha and Hyuga clans~

The frontline commander died in the battle~

The eastern frontline troops of Konoha were defeated~

The appearance of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?

One thing after another, almost made the east a mess.

Even the daimyo hiding in the capital sent envoys to pay special attention to this matter.

"...Hyuga clan! "

"Yes, letting you serve as the commander of the east is the result of the Hyuga clan's pressure on the village. "

"I have to face the ugly faces of those guys from the Uchiha clan again. Just think about it~it's really pleasant. "

Touching his chin, Fujiwara Tetsuya was somewhat tempted.

Of course, looking at those ugly faces of the Uchiha clan was just a side effect.

The important thing is... to be able to reasonably get the opportunity to fight the Third Mizukage.

"I understand~ I will go to the Eastern Front."

"But, is it really okay for you and Shinnosuke to face Rasa, Chiyo, Ebizo... and that old guy Bonfuku?"

Although Sarutobi Shinnosuke's strength has also increased a lot in recent years, at best he is at the level of the late quasi-kage level. If he wants to challenge a real kage level, it is estimated that it is still a bit shaky...

With the assistance of Manda, it is not impossible for Orochimaru to contain two kage levels alone.

But if one is added to this number... even Orochimaru can only lie flat, this is the ending.

"I... I will try my best."

Rubbing his forehead, Orochimaru was obviously a little lacking in confidence.

"Hey~ It's not possible? "

Under the undisguised laughter of Fujiwara Tetsuya, Sarutobi Shinnosuke forced himself to turn his head.

Don't be angry... Don't be angry!

At his age, it's already good to have this kind of strength.

There's no need to force yourself to compare with a monster...

"Senior Orochimaru~ Before you leave, I'll give you another gift."

"Tomorrow we will attack the Sand Village. You and Manja will contain the Third Kazekage and Chiyo. Senior Shinnosuke... I'll leave Ebizo to you."

"The opportunity to fight with Kage-level players is rare."

"If you want to enter the Kage level, the most effective way... is to break through the limit in the battle with Kage-level strongmen..."

"And I will raid the Sand Village camp in the shortest time possible and send Fuku off."

"As long as Fuku dies, Shukaku will die... and with TailAccording to the characteristics of the beast, it cannot be revived in a short time. At least, in the next battle... you don't have to worry about the threat posed by the one-tail anymore. "

"Hehe~Zheye-kun, thank you so much. "But, everything you did was for the village, it doesn't count as a favor from me~"

……..

The next morning.

Orochimaru led Sarutobi Shinnosuke, whose scalp was tingling, and directly launched Konoha's counterattack...

Facing Konoha's swift offensive, Rasa, Chiyo, and Ebizo appeared on the battlefield one after another.

The power of the Kage-level strongman burst out at this moment, and waves of air were generated invisibly, sweeping the entire battlefield.

"Gurgle~"

Feeling the murderous intent emanating from the three Kage-level strongmen, even Sarutobi Shinnosuke, who was used to life and death, shuddered and swallowed his saliva subconsciously.

Perhaps, he was abrupt... He shouldn't have taken on this task stupidly.

"Orochimaru, why is it only you... Where is that damn guy Fujiwara Tetsuya? "

Although he had been beaten by Fujiwara Tetsuya countless times in recent days,... the repeated near-death and breaking through the limit also made Luosha's strength explode in a short period of time.

At least, up to now, he has completely surpassed Chiyo and has become the real and well-deserved number one in the Sand Village.

"Tetsuya-kun?"

"Did he go to the eastern front to deal with the ninjas of the Kirigakure Village?"

"The battle between you and him will probably be put after the battle between Konoha and the Kirigakure Village is over."

At the moment of summoning the Ten Thousand Snakes, Orochimaru jumped lightly and landed on the top of the Ten Thousand Snakes, without the slightest abnormality... explaining the lie he had conceived temporarily.

"He went to the eastern front...that damn guy."

"Did he just run away like that! "

"..."

Looking at Rasa who was trapped in his own state, Chiyo's forehead showed a black line.

Is it time to consider these issues now?

Even if you have to consider them, you should be happy, right?

Now that the monster is gone from Mount Kikyo, it is the best thing for the Sand Village.

"Rasa... wake up!"

"The departure of that brat is a good thing for us."

"Now is the best time to take Mount Kikyo."

"Besides, as long as we can take Mount Kikyo and kill our way to Konoha...you will meet that brat again sooner or later."

"It's time to issue the order for the general attack~"

...

"Have you started fighting? "

Listening to the sounds of fighting from afar, Fujiwara Tetsuya fell rapidly from a high altitude and landed steadily in the Sand Village camp.

Because of the war, the main combat elites of the Sand Village were basically out to fight.

The remaining defense forces and reserve teams also basically focused their attention on the battlefield ahead...

Therefore, no one noticed Fujiwara Tetsuya's arrival.

"Then, next... Master Bonfuku, there is another one, where are you hiding?"

The moment the perception was fully opened, a series of chakra projections kept passing through Fujiwara Tetsuya's mind.

After searching most of the Sand Village camp, Fujiwara Tetsuya finally sensed the breath of Bonfuku and Shukaku.

"Master Bonfuku seems not surprised to see me~?"

Looking at the various seals sealed above the fence, Fujiwara Tetsuya shook his head slightly, and then looked at Bonfuku in the cage.

"Donor Fujiwara, if I say... this is fate, do you believe it? "

"Since we separated last time, I have had a vague feeling that you and I will meet again."

"It seems that my premonition is correct. You are here to... kill me, right?"
