Chapter 759: Let the Flames of War Burn Every Inch of Land
Sasuke also saw the report on the three ninja villages. "It seems that in the end, all that was waiting was their madness!"
Naruto was very helpless. This was already their last chance. If they still wanted to do this, then there was no other way.
"We have to make a move too!" Sasuke said, and Naruto nodded helplessly.
Shikamaru on the side was looking at the map, analyzing the attack routes of the three ninja villages. The only thing that was still considered good now was that the Mist Village was coming from the direction of the Land of Waves. But the Stone and Cloud Villages seemed to have converged and were preparing to attack Konoha together, which was great. This way, the three battlefields became two.
And Konoha happened to have two Hokages. One could be responsible for one battlefield, and at the same time, they could return to Konoha at any time to ensure its safety. With the powerful combat strength of Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto, no matter how many enemies there were, there was absolutely no problem. Sasuke could wipe out the entire ninja force of the Sand Village in half an hour. Could numbers still pose any problem?
Just as Shikamaru felt that this plan was well arranged, an Anbu ninja suddenly appeared, coming directly in front of Sasuke and Naruto. "Reporting to the two Lord Hokages!"
"This is bad!"
"The Stone ninja forces and the Cloud ninja forces have all dispersed!"
Dispersed? Instantly, Shikamaru was taken aback, and then his pupils rapidly dilated: "What do you mean by dispersed?"
"Nearly a million ninja forces have all been divided into small ninja forces of ten to thirty people and have already crossed the border, launching an invasion of Konoha from all directions!" As he spoke, this Anbu ninja brought a map and handed it to Shikamaru.
Shikamaru opened the map and then saw various red arrows, marking the direction from which the enemy had begun to invade Konoha, and from where. And the number of arrows on this map made Shikamaru's scalp tingle.
A million ninja forces, all broken up into small units of ten to thirty people. They didn't even have the same direction of advance. Some went east, some went west. In a word, chaos! It seemed as if they had no unified attack target at all. Their target might be everyone in the Land of Fire, all the ninja, all the cities.
Thinking of this, Shikamaru's eyelids twitched wildly. If his previous advantage was that he had two astonishingly powerful combatants like Sasuke and Naruto, who could take care of two battlefields at the same time, then now this advantage was gone. Because now, there were hundreds of battlefields marked out, and each one was different. And Naruto and Sasuke were only two people!
Shikamaru believed that there were many more that the Anbu ninja couldn't even mark out, because there was simply no time to count how many people there were, how many forces they had divided into, and where each force had gone. In this situation, even Shikamaru had to face a fact.
"Sasuke, Naruto!" Shikamaru looked at the two of them. "I'm afraid now we can only really fight a life-and-death battle."
"The enemy is numerous, divided into unequal small forces, with no clear target and no clear route. They move at will, causing destruction to the Land of Fire."
If they were left unchecked, in a few days, the Land of Fire, this most prosperous and bustling country, would become a complete mess. At that time, countless citizens of the Land of Fire would choose to leave, to escape the ravages of war.
And it wasn't just the ninja forces of the Stone and Cloud villages. The numerous ports on the sea would also be attacked by the ninja forces of the Mist Village, who had also broken up into small units. If the Land of Fire was devastated, even if Konoha won in the end, it would be a pyrrhic victory. At that time, would those who had fled the Land of Fire be willing to return? It probably wouldn't be certain.
Thinking of this, Shikamaru became a little dazed.
"Their goal is to drag the entire shinobi world down to the same level, even if they are defeated!" Sasuke suddenly spoke up.
Hearing this, Shikamaru nodded fiercely. "That's right, that's it."
"Since that's the case, then Konoha will also make a move!" Sasuke shrugged indifferently. "Since they want to mess around, then let's mess around with them!" Sasuke's meaning was that Konoha's ninja forces would also go all out, breaking up into small units, and destroy the entire shinobi world!
"Sasuke, this..." Naruto wanted to object, but Sasuke retorted, "War cannot be too merciful. If you don't want to fight, then you might as well surrender. If you are willing to surrender, I will also agree!"
Naruto was at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing what to say. Surrendering was naturally impossible, but to let Konoha's ninja go to other countries and cause frantic destruction, this was not what he had originally thought...
"They used this method, and we don't. Are we just going to defend in the Land of Fire?"
"Do you think we can defend it?" Although Konoha had more ninja than them, the Land of Fire was so big! How could it be possible to defend every place? And it was just small units of ten or twenty people at a time. So what if a hundred units were wiped out? The number of remaining enemy ninja forces was still too large. It was simply not something that could be wiped out in a short time.
"But even so, if we use the same method as them, then no one will benefit!"
"The world will be destroyed because of this!"
Sasuke shook his head. "No, of course there is a benefit. That is to force them to have a decisive battle with us!" To force the other party into a decisive battle. As soon as the decisive battle began, the war would be over.
Naruto glanced at Shikamaru. Shikamaru also shook his head. There was indeed no other way now. If they kept defending, the other party would be even less likely to initiate a decisive battle.
"Alright! Then you can arrange it! Sasuke!" Naruto left the Hokage's office.
Leaving Sasuke to glance at Shikamaru. "All of Konoha's ninja, all of them, are to be deployed. Except for a certain number of ninja left in Konoha Village, all the other ninja are to be deployed for a counterattack on the Land of Earth, the Land of Lightning, the Land of Water, and don't even let the Land of Wind go!"
The number of Konoha's ninja could fully support them in challenging four great ninja nations at the same time. This was to let the flames of war burn every inch of the shinobi world.
Although Shikamaru was a little terrified by Sasuke's decision, he had to admire one thing. At a time like this, it indeed required someone like Sasuke to make such a decision. To make the enemy feel fear, to let the enemy see your madness, only then would they be afraid. Not playing by the rules would only make them pay a more painful price. That way, no one would dare to mess around anymore.
"You can arrange the specifics!"
"It seems that for the recent period of time, I probably won't have anything to do!" Sasuke smiled.
This method of breaking up into small units was indeed disgusting. It was also impossible for Sasuke to search for small units of ten or twenty people and deal with them one by one! Even Sasuke would feel tired! This time, they had thought of a way, but this method also caused considerable damage to themselves.
