Chapter 692
Unknowingly, Mizunuki Ryosuke had suddenly become the sole master of this battlefield.
Whether it was the Kirigakure, Iwagakure, or Kumogakure ninja, all were waiting for Mizunuki Ryosuke to express his attitude.
But just at this moment, Mizunuki Ryosuke calmly closed his eyes and leaned peacefully against the Frozen Wang Zuo, as if quietly listening to something.
With what had happened before, everyone knew that there was only one thing they could do, and that was—wait.
Wait until Mizunuki Ryosuke was willing to state his position.
For a time, on the vast battlefield, there was now only an eerie silence.
For a long time—
Mizunuki Ryosuke suddenly opened his eyes, and with his closing and opening, more than twenty thousand ninja all felt their breath hitch.
Finally, it had come, the last card in his hand.
Next, it was time to put a period to this war.
Thinking of this, Mizunuki Ryosuke stretched and slowly rose from the Frozen Wang Zuo.
Now, they should have a good talk.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Mizunuki Ryosuke's mouth.
Within the borders of the Land of the Moon, a team of several thousand people was constantly advancing.
At the very front of the team, Hoshigaki Kisame looked at the abrupt silvery-white snow on the ground ahead, knowing that he was not far from his destination.
Although Hoshigaki Kisame had already become accustomed to the snow in the Land of Iron, in the Land of the Moon, where there was little snow, the meaning of this snowy scene was completely different.
Because Kisame knew in his heart that the effect brought by the Mizukage's unique ninjutsu would create large-scale snowfall.
That this place was covered in snow meant he was already very close to the battlefield.
Thus, Kisame formed a seal, and his figure disappeared from the very front of the team.
Tian Sanlang walked with difficulty, dragging his heavily injured body; due to his strength as an elite jonin, he was being guarded by two Kirigakure ninja from the White Shark Unit.
And around Tian Sanlang, several thousand severely injured Iwagakure ninja were also being escorted forward.
These injured Iwagakure soldiers were the Iwagakure ninja captured by the White Shark Unit led by Hoshigaki Kisame, who had launched a surprise attack from the Land of Iron.
Under Mizunuki Ryosuke's orders, Hoshigaki Kisame was ultimately ordered to take over these injured Iwagakure soldiers as prisoners and drive them toward the battlefield of Kumogakure and Iwagakure.
And among them, only Tian Sanlang's custody was the strictest, but in fact, such custody was a bit too safe, because Tian Sanlang's most important body part as a ninja—his hands—
were already so heavily injured that they could not be used, which also meant that Tian Sanlang's taijutsu was greatly discounted, and most importantly, he could not form seals with his hands, causing Tian Sanlang to have lost the ability to use ninjutsu.
Therefore, Tian Sanlang's combat power at this moment was probably not even as good as a genin's.
Even so, Hoshigaki Kisame still attached great importance to Tian Sanlang, because his status among this group of prisoners was extraordinary, having value far exceeding other prisoners.
"Swish!"
Just at this moment, a tall, thin ninja with a shark face suddenly appeared beside Tian Sanlang; it was the leader of this team, Hoshigaki Kisame.
After arriving beside Tian Sanlang, Hoshigaki Kisame was not polite, directly waving his hand to strike Tian Sanlang on the neck, knocking him unconscious.
Subsequently, Hoshigaki Kisame ordered the troops to stand by on the spot, then shouldered Tian Sanlang and quickly rushed toward the battlefield located in the center of the silvery-white snow.
Almost at the same time, not far from the battlefield—
In front of a hidden cave entrance, a square-faced Kumogakure ninja was meticulously guarding the entrance, while vigilantly looking around, searching for any possible danger.
And inside the cave, a short, middle-aged man with a bulbous nose slowly opened his eyes.
Onoki was dazed for a few seconds, his hollow eyes gradually gaining focus.
At the same time, the intense pain all over his body told Onoki one thing, and that was that he was still alive.
At this moment, a hideous smile pulled at the corner of Onoki's mouth as he survived the disaster; he was about to get up, but because he touched his wounds, he fell back to the ground.
Strong willpower allowed Onoki to suppress the desire to cry out in pain, and his gradually clearing consciousness allowed Onoki to quickly check the situation around him.
He only vaguely remembered that at the last moment, the Third Raikage's palm had pierced his chest, and then he had lost consciousness.
He had thought it was a certain-death ending, but he hadn't expected that he would be saved and brought back to life at this moment.
Onoki first checked his own injuries and found that the fatal wound on his chest had been sutured and was initially healing under the effect of Yang Release.
The injuries caused by the battle on other parts of his body had also been simply treated and stabilized so they would not continue to worsen.
The seasoned Onoki could tell at a glance that it was definitely a medical ninja with superb medical skills who had healed him.
Although his injuries had been healed, medical ninjutsu was not omnipotent; the injuries that should exist still existed, and at this moment, Onoki's strength was less than one in ten.
How much time had passed? Who had saved him? What was the situation with Iwagakure? Where was he now?
These were the questions Onoki urgently needed to clarify.
At this moment, Onoki struggled to climb up from the ground, attempting to find clues in the cave.
He stepped forward with difficulty, but very vigilantly did not make any sound.
In the current unknown situation, Onoki knew that any reckless move could lead to death.
Soon, after walking only two steps, Onoki discovered that the front of the cave was shimmering with a verdant luster.
Onoki recognized this color; it was the luster emitted when medical ninjutsu was performed.
Immediately, his breathing became a bit rapid, and Onoki approached the front even more cautiously.
Finally, after walking past a corner in the cave, Onoki saw the scene within.
