The atmosphere in the room was heavy. Sister Zhua sat beside Rie and gently stroked Rie's forehead. She had never had such an expression before. She carefully looked at Rie's face. There was no doubt that she liked this cute little sister very much, but now…she sighed and turned to look at Kakashi and me.
Kakashi and I stood by the bed. Kakashi looked at Rie with a gentle gaze. I also felt pity for this girl whom I had spent half a year with. Although she wasn't very strong, she was very kind…
" You're just children…" Sister Zhua suddenly sighed and said with pity and helplessness. "Rie is just a child…This damned war!" Sister Claw suddenly became furious.
" I can only send her back to Muye for treatment now. She might not be able to become a ninja anymore…" For Rie, this might be the most suitable…" Sister Claw's voice was low and gradually became inaudible…
Kakashi and I trembled. Can't we be ninjas anymore…Sister Claw is right. This is the best. For Rie…
Sister Claw, Kakashi and I sent Rie away the next day. She was still sleeping. Sister Claw used the Ninja Hawk to send the battle situation and Rie's situation to the main stronghold. Four Chuunins came to deal with the body and took Rie away. She would return to Muye with the wounded sent from the front line. Chuunins brought an important piece of information. The Sanin had changed from the small fights they had been having for the past six months and suddenly started a large-scale infiltration and destruction. Our stronghold might also become the enemy's target.
Obviously, this was exactly what we had hoped for, especially Kakashi and me. Rie's accident had caused us to hold back our anger, and we began to train with all our might every day.
"Even if the Sharen started to infiltrate on a large scale, there shouldn't be such a small team that could reach our stronghold. What's going on?”Kakashi finally asked the question he had in the previous battle. I was also very curious. I followed him on patrol while listening attentively.
" This is a confusing battle. The so-called large-scale invasion has two main purposes. The first is to find out the distribution of the defense line strongholds and the strength of the troops. The second is to kill the Chuunin and Shinin on a large scale. These are the future of Kuniba. These missions are actually carried out by elite ninjas or elite teams. What we encountered was only…"
" Bait…" Kakashi hit the nail on the head.
When I heard this shocking word, I couldn't help but think of Rie. Kiba was the best in this aspect. Although there were also baits to fight, the fate of the baits was very different from other villages. Just like how Rie had safely returned to Kiba, the other ninja villages wouldn't care about these ninjas who had lost their ability to fight. What awaited them was only death.
"Yes, we used these baits to deceive the patrol team at the front line and took the opportunity to sneak into the rear to carry out our activities. Unfortunately, these baits actually managed to make it to our stronghold alive. That means that the ninjas at the front line saw through the enemy's trick. The baits survived, and the elites are likely to have been killed.”Sister Claw said calmly. These words made me speechless, thinking to myself that I definitely shouldn't become bait. Looking at Kakashi's expression, I'm afraid that he was thinking the same thing. However, things did not go as he wished. When we became bait, we were still in the dark. Moreover, Kakashi and I became bait more than once in the next year. Although we weren't deliberately used as bait by the Muye frontline commander, we were still badly battered and faced with desperate situations several times. Thinking about it later, it was really laughable!
At this moment, Sister Claw's Ninja Hound suddenly barked in a certain direction. We looked in that direction and saw a smoke-like smoke rising into the sky. It gathered and did not disperse. Following that was the sharp whistle of a signal flare." The enemy has invaded. It's the H-spot closest to us. From the looks of it, there are no less than two teams of elite ninjas invading."”As the leader of the team, he had to understand the signals.
"Could it be bait? Why didn't Ninja Eagle inform us?”I asked in confusion.
" There's only one Ninja Hawk in each stronghold. It's used to contact the main stronghold at critical moments. No matter what, as a Chuunin, I have to go and rescue them. Stronghold H is relatively large. There are three squads of Genins and three leading Chuunins. I hope they can hold on, but we can't give up on the stronghold. You guys continue patrolling. I'll leave Black Wolf to you!”Sister Zhua did not allow us to speak. She made a prompt decision and quickly rushed to reinforce Stronghold H.
Kakashi and I looked at each other and smiled. How could we not know how much Sister Claw cared for us? Ninja Hound Master had lent her Ninja Hound to someone else, which was enough to explain the problem.
"Hei Lang, let's go." After spending a few months together, we were already very familiar with the black wolf. We also had some understanding of its movements, expressions, and signals.
As the captain, Sister Claw had left, which made us somewhat uneasy. We increased our patrolling speed by quite a bit. When we approached the stronghold, the black wolf suddenly changed direction. It stayed where it was and sniffed with all its might, letting out a low, urgent cry. Kakashi and I immediately understood that the enemy had invaded. It was likely that they had discovered our patrolling traces and had followed us all the way here. The atmosphere began to become tense.
"Hei Lang, are there any enemies? How many are there?”Kakashi asked quietly.
Black Wolf nodded and let out three low cries. We immediately understood that there were three enemies. We had no idea about the other information, such as the strength of the enemies. After all, they were not Black Wolf's master. However, looking at Black Wolf pacing anxiously, the enemies were probably at least at the level of Chuunin.
"Kakashi, what should we do?" At this time, the acting captain Kakashi has the absolute authority to decide our next course of action.
"Since the enemy has invaded our stronghold, we'll kill them.”Kakashi's expression was indifferent, but his tone was unusually resolute.
I nodded. For a moment, my blood was boiling. This was the first time I had fought without a leader and with a small team!
