Reversal of the Battle

Chapter 90 Reversal of the Battle

The Sand Village Camp.

Inside the central camp.

The Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, glanced at the casualty report presented to him and tossed it aside.

These are powers that do not belong to him, the Fourth Kazekage, so it doesn't matter how many die.

"However... that woman, Yekura, has been quite prominent in the Land of Rivers, and with her followers..."

Luo Sha thought to himself, "No rush, one step at a time. After this war, I will definitely secure my position as Kazekage, instead of becoming a puppet."

"Go and invite Elder Chiyo and Elder Ebizo to the Kazekage camp to discuss the next steps of the plan."

Chiyo and Ebizo arrived at the Kazekage camp and saw Rasa working on a map.

They were not very satisfied with Rasa, who, after becoming the Fourth Kazekage, took advantage of the Third Kazekage's disappearance and directly declared war on Konoha.

Chiyo and Ebizo were well aware of Rasa's purpose: to secure his position as Kazekage through war.

Although Rasa defeated the Cloud Ninja with Magnet Release: Gold Sand, he succeeded as the Fourth Kazekage.

However, he was inferior to the Third Kazekage in terms of direct subordinates, control over the village, and support among civilian ninjas.

Luo Sha also knew that as the Kazekage, his control over the village was very weak, and there was even a possibility that he could be overthrown.

Putting aside everything else, if we anger the powerful figures in Sunagakure...

Yekura, who lost to him, might receive a lot of support.

Therefore, Rasa seized the opportunity to incite the emotions of civilian ninjas and, with the help of the general trend, directly declared war on Konoha.

In war, his authority as the Wind Shadow can be exerted to the fullest extent.

Through this war, Luo Sha can easily weaken the families and high-ranking forces that are hostile to him, and cultivate his own power.

Once the war begins, all the Sand Village ninja will have the opportunity to go to the battlefield.

In this way, it's reasonable that the Sand Village clan and its higher-ups suffered significant losses, right?

Luo Sha even deployed his own forces to the front lines, effectively silencing everyone.

Since Rasa didn't have much power to begin with, it was worthwhile to use that power to secure the position of Kazekage.

At worst, we can train a new batch.

"Elder Chiyo, it will be hard for you to lead the team in another round of attacks today."

Rasa said solemnly to Chiyo and Ebina that his authority as Kazekage was growing stronger and his power was becoming increasingly vast.

"Isn't this too hasty, Rasa? We just finished an attack, and now we're launching another one. The Sand Ninja won't be able to handle it."

Chiyo gave Rasa a deep look; this suppression of dissidents was all too obvious.

Rasa solemnly declared, "If we Sand Village can't hold on, Konoha will only face greater pressure. Furthermore, I've already transferred ninjas to Sand Village again, and Bunpuku will be coming too. Everything is proceeding smoothly!"

"If we proceed according to the original plan we discussed, we can turn the tide of the battle! And this time, I will also be fighting!"

Luo Sha looked serious and wasn't afraid at all.

This is an open strategy; all the measures are correct, and no one can find fault with them.

However, there will be some problems in implementation, which may lead to a lot of damage.

"I hope everything goes well."

Chiyo left the tent after speaking, without refuting Rasa. She knew that the casualties wouldn't decrease until Rasa believed he had secured his position as Kazekage.

Ebizo followed behind Chiyo, and before leaving, he turned to Rasa and said:

"Kazekage, while drawing ninja from the village may give us a numerical advantage on the battlefield in the Land of Rain, it leaves the village vulnerable. As Kazekage, you must be careful."

Luo Sha nodded upon hearing this, but did not take Ebizo's words to heart.

Sunagakure is located in the Land of Wind, in a desert with scarce resources and a harsh environment. Ninjas who are not used to sandstorms will be greatly affected.

Moreover, geographically speaking, the only village capable of launching a surprise attack on Sunagakure is Iwagakure.

At this time of joint attack on Konoha, Rasa believed that the Iwa ninja would not be so unwise.

Otherwise, if the Sand Village turns its guns on the Iwa Village, the Cloud Village, which has been eyeing the Iwa Village for a long time, will not let this opportunity pass. If the Leaf Village also gets involved, it will be a three-village attack on Iwa.

Most importantly, Rasa was willing to gamble! The Iwa ninja, however, were not!

Ebina sighed and left the Sunagakure camp.

Chiyo looked at the exhausted Sand Ninja and said helplessly:

"All Sand Ninja, mobilize and attack Konoha!"

This time, the Sand Ninja didn't intend to hide it, nor could they.

More than three thousand Sand Ninja were dispatched, divided into seven teams, to launch a full-scale attack on Konoha.

This was the largest war ever fought between Konoha and Sunagakure.

The Konoha ninjas busily equipped themselves with their Qiangzhuang armor, squinting as they looked towards the direction of the Sand Ninja's base, waiting for the Sand Ninja to attack.

The Konoha ninjas were very confident that this might be the war with the fewest casualties.

Looking at the Konoha ninja in their white armor, Chiyo had a bad feeling.

"Rasa, something's not right!"

"Proceed as planned; we've reached this point and can't stop now."

Rasa was a little surprised to see the Guyver armor, but he wasn't too flustered.

"Kill them!"

The Sand Ninja and Konoha Ninja spread out from both sides toward the middle, like two horizons.

At the moment their paths crossed, a brutal war broke out.

A Konoha genin charged toward a Suna genin.

"You're asking for death! How dare you charge at me! Do you think I'm just a puppet?!"

Since they are all genin, the Sand Ninja with puppets have a significant advantage when facing Konoha genin.

"Puppet - Poison Needle!"

The chest of the puppet controlled by the Sand Ninja opened, and a burst of poison needles flew towards the Leaf Village ninja.

The poison needle reflected a chilling light, its dark purple color indicating its extraordinary toxicity.

bump!bump!bump!

A large number of poison needles struck the bio-armor with a crisp sound, then fell limply to the ground.

"What the hell is this thing?!"

The Sand Shinobi were alarmed to find that they could not break through the defenses of the Guyver Armor.

He devoted a great deal of effort to concocting poisons, and a significant portion of his expertise lay in poisons.

If the poison can't break through the defenses, it's useless.

The Konoha ninja nimbly approached and then viciously stabbed the Sand Ninja with a kunai.

"Damn it!"

The Sand Ninja's brief moment of distraction led to a life-or-death crisis.

A ruthless glint appeared in the eyes of the Sand Ninja. Instead of retreating, they advanced and retaliated with kunai.

If they can force the Konoha ninjas to retreat, they have a chance to survive; if they can't, they might as well perish together.

The kunai of the Konoha ninja pierced the body of the Sand ninja as easily as piercing a block of tofu, without any resistance.

The Sand Ninja's kunai stopped on the Qiangzhuang Armor, leaving a very shallow scratch.

"Damn it!"

The Sand Ninja left behind his last words and collapsed, powerless.

This is a glimpse into the war, but also a microcosm of the entire battlefield.

The Sand Ninja appeared somewhat weaker against the Konoha ninjas equipped with Guyver armor.

Despite having a numerical advantage, the Sand Ninja were actually pushed back.

"This can't go on. Elder Chiyo, Elder Ebizo, let's join forces."

Seeing the Sunagakure genin being crushed, the chunin being suppressed, and even the jonin being affected, Rasa knew that this couldn't continue.

They wanted to lead high-end combat forces into the battlefield.

"Rasa, don't rush, I still need to collect data on the Guyver Armor."

"Summoning Jutsu: Ten Thousand Snakes!"

A massive body appeared before Rasa, blocking his path.
