It took Shuiyun and the others two days to reach the frontlines. During these two days, Zirai constantly explained to Shuiyun and the others the things to take note of in battle. In fact, other than Zirai and Okami, the five of them, the Water Wave Sect, Mystic Moon Shuiyun, and Flagtree Kakashi, had no experience in battle.
Unlike ordinary battles, wars were large-scale battles. After all, one person's strength was limited. If he fought with too many people, the outcome would be unpredictable. More importantly, war was a battle of life and death. In order to win, there was no need to talk about principles at all. Countless schemes and plots were impossible to guard against.
Zirai Zuo spoke one sentence after another, until Shuiyun was getting a little annoyed. Looking at the serious expressions on the faces of Wave Feng Shui Sect and Kakashi, Shuiyun suddenly felt that his patience had decreased.
This war with Sanin Village was the first large-scale war that Muye had fought since the Second War of the Ninja Realm. Therefore, the third generation Naruto placed great importance on this war and sent out all three of his 'ninjas' in an instant, all for the sake of victory.
Although the reason for the disappearance of the third generation Windshade was an excuse, their real goal was the fertile land of the Fire Country. Surviving in the harsh weather of the Wind Country had long been unbearable for the higher-ups of the village. Therefore, they vented all their anger on Mu Ye because of the disappearance of the third generation Windshade.
The third generation Naruto clearly understood the true meaning of the war that the village had started. Therefore, for the sake of a foolproof plan, he had pulled out half of Koba's military forces to deal a blow to the arrogance of the village.
The first thing Mizuno and the others did when they arrived at the front line was to go to Orochimaru. Orochimaru was now the commander of the war against Shinobu Village. Everything on the battlefield had to be under his command. With Orochimaru's command, the attack on Shinobu Village was greatly restricted.
"Orochimaru, we're here to help you.”
When Kirai saw Orochimaru, he laughed exaggeratedly as if he was here to save him.
Orochimaru directly ignored Yukiya and looked at Okami and the others, saying,"Okami, you're finally here. Eh, Watergate-kun, Mizunoku-kun, Kakashi, you're here too.”
"Lord Orochimaru." Shui Yun and the other two respectfully greeted Orochimaru.
Orochimaru's gaze stopped on Shui Yun's body, and his eyes flashed.""Shuiyun, I haven't seen you for two years, but you've changed a lot.”
"Orochimaru, you flatter me." Shui Yun smiled.”
Orochimaru also smiled noncommittally, and then said no more, but said to Tsunei,"Okami, you came at the right time. It is said that the old woman Chiyo and her brother from Sanin Village have also come out of the mountain.”
Okami was stunned." That old woman is coming out of retirement too? Didn't she live in seclusion for a long time? Why did he suddenly come out?"
Orochimaru shook his head and said," I'm not too sure about this either. Logically speaking, she doesn't have a good relationship with the third generation Windshade. She's even somewhat hostile. She shouldn't have left the mountain because of the death of the third generation Windshade." However, there were rumors that the old woman's only grandson had also disappeared. It was unknown if he had defected or if he had disappeared like the third generation of Fujiwara.”
"Is that so?" Okami frowned and started thinking.
"Hey, you two did it on purpose, didn't you? Do you think I don't exist?" When Kirai saw that Orochimaru and Tsunete had completely ignored him, he immediately shouted angrily.
Orochimaru seemed to have just seen Yukiya and shouted,"Hey, Zirai, you're here too? I'm sorry, I didn't see it just now."
" Orochimaru, you did it on purpose."”
"Alright, alright, stop fooling around. Orochimaru, tell us about the current situation.”Okami interrupted their nonsense and asked Orochimaru.
Orochimaru stopped joking and said with a serious expression,""Speaking of which, this war is very disadvantageous to us.”
"Oh, what do you mean?"
Orochimaru's words made everyone feel strange. Although Sunin Village was one of the five great ninja villages, because it was located in a remote desert, its population, finances, and military capabilities were far inferior to Kanye, who was located in the center of the continent.
Not to mention other things, just in terms of the number of ninjas, Muye definitely had more than double the number of ninjas in the village. The quality of ninjas and the number of experts were also not something that the village could compare to. Logically speaking, it was not surprising that Muye suppressed the village. Why did Orochimaru say that it was very disadvantageous to Muye?
"Orochimaru, is there something wrong with your brain?" Is there anyone like you who can boost others 'morale and diminish your own? I don't believe it's as bad as you say.”
Orochimaru didn't refute him. He just shrugged and said,""I don't have the ability to defeat the sand. If you have the ability, I'll leave this command to you. I want to see if your ability is as strong as you say.”
" Leave it to me then!" Zilai shouted, unwilling to be outdone." Do you think I'm afraid of you? Just because you can't do it doesn't mean I can't do it either. I…"
"Shut up and be yourself. If you say another word, don't blame me for being rude.”Okami roared at Kirai.
Selai was not afraid of anything, but he was afraid of Okami going crazy. Once Okami went crazy, he immediately wilted, and Shuiyun was amused.
After subduing Yukiya, Okami said to Orochimaru,"Ignore him, Orochimaru, continue.”
Orochimaru nodded and did not take it to heart. He continued,"There are a few reasons why I said that this war is very disadvantageous to us. First, the terrain.”
Orochimaru pointed at a spot on the map that he had already prepared and said,""Look, this is where we are, and the stronghold of Shin Village is here, at Campanulata Mountain.”
Orochimaru pointed at the place he had marked on the other side of the map and explained,""This is the headquarters of Sharen Village, a natural mountain range that is extremely easy to defend and difficult to attack. To be honest, as long as we can take this mountain range and use it as a stronghold, Sharen Village will definitely lose.”
When Zilai Ye heard this, he shouted excitedly,""Then what are we waiting for? Call him now.”
Orochimaru rolled his eyes at Zirai and did not bicker. Instead, he continued,"If it was that easy, I would have taken it long ago. But in fact, I didn't take it. Before you guys came, I tried to take the initiative to attack a few times, but I didn't even have the chance to charge up, let alone take down the mountain. I was defeated a few times, so I temporarily gave up on taking the initiative to attack.”
"Is Mt. Campanulata really that difficult to attack?" Okami asked in shock. To be able to make Orochimaru return in defeat several times, he was probably not simple.
