Chapter 1074: The Battle of two armies
The Shinobi coalition entered the desert from the Lightning Country, while the Akatsuki forces advanced from the Fire Country.
At this point, there was no point in covertly attacking large Shinobi villages. With the exception of Hidden Cloud Village, all the other villages had already moved their civilians to safe locations.
This time, the large shinobi villages decided to take part in this battle in full force. The main reason for their cohesion was that Akatsuki had enough power to destroy any of the villages in a one - on-one battle.
Although the troops of both sides were large in numbers, they moved extremely fast. Not to mention the shinobi coalition, 100,000 White Zetsu under Kabuto's command arrived on the battlefield ten hours before the battle started.
The main battlefield was the vast desert and the vast forests along the desert.
Before the two sides ' troops reached the desert, the main battlefield, they would engage in a battle in the woods.
Given that the White Zetsu clones could disguise themselves as anyone, this advantage would obviously greatly affect the battle flow.
*Whew-whew...*
Several dozen figures were quickly jumping up and down the trees.
They were scouts from the Shinobi alliance.
Hundreds of White Zetsu suddenly emerged from the ground. They all looked exactly the same — their hair was short and light green, their skin was pale, and there were strange spikes all over their bodies.
The White Zetsu that appeared blocked the passage and immediately charged without a word.
Although there were more White Zetsu clones, their abilities were limited, and they would be at a disadvantage if they were to engage a real shinobi army.
However, ten minutes later, there were hundreds of corpses on the ground.
All the scouts were killed.
There were too many white Zetsu.
The surviving White Zetsu immediately began to deal with the corpses of the Shinobi.
After a while, the new White Zetsu disguised as coalition scouts, with various wounds on their bodies, began to scatter in all directions.
They wanted to join the Shinobi army.
Not to mention dozens of White Zetsu, even if only a few White Zetsu end up in the enemy's army, it will create chaos in the enemy's ranks.
Not only could Zetsu change his appearance, but he could also change his chakra fluctuations, which meant that even a perception-type shinobi wouldn't be able to detect him.
Once the Zetsu clones attack the coalition army in the back and the news gets out, it will deal a huge blow to the spirit of the Shinobi, causing them to see everyone as an enemy.
Of course, such skirmishes in the forest were only small encounters.
The real battlefield was in the desert.
The main coalition forces soon entered the desert.
The second unit of the Shinobi coalition, a melee unit, entered the desert. This unit was supposed to block the main enemy troops, that is, the Zetsu clones, so they were the first to enter the battlefield.
The second unit was commanded by Kitsuchi from Hidden Stone Village. This division had the largest number of Shinobi — more than 20 000.
Of course, not all the strongest people were gathered in this division.
The main forces of this unit were: Kurotsuchi, Neji Hyuga, Karui, Hinata Hyuga and others.
The second division was followed by the first and third divisions. After appearing on the battlefield, the three units did not spread out, but instead began to move forward in the form of a ladder.
Kitsuchi was running fast across the desert. Behind him were Kurotsuchi, Neji Hyuga, Karui, Hinata Hyuga, and behind them were over 20,000 Shinobi.
— Captain, according to the information from the scouting unit, a large number of enemies were discovered ahead, " said Kurotsuchi, the next Tsuchikage, and although the captain of the second unit, Kitsuchi, was her father, she did not address him informally.
— Kitsuchi's expression was calm. Although he wasn't famous, he definitely wasn't weak.
— About thirty thousand.
— Division! Stop advancing and prepare for battle! Kitsuchi immediately gave the order, and the more than 20,000-strong unit stopped moving in just ten seconds.
Although they executed the command quickly, it was obvious from Kitsuchi's careful order how good he was at commanding such a small army.
A few hundred meters ahead of this army, Su Xiao, who was lying on a stone pillar, sat up, and blood could be seen on his sleeves.
— Looks like the first army has arrived, " Su Xiao muttered as he looked at the coalition unit in the distance.
Kitsuchi was the first to enter his field of vision, followed by Kurotsuchi.
The strength of a father and daughter should not be underestimated, but Su Xiao did not care about this pair.
After the battle begins, he will let them know how weak the shinobi were in large-scale wars.
Zetsu clones suddenly began to appear from the yellow sand.
They had been lying in wait for a long time and were busy with photosynthesis the entire time.
That's right, photosynthesis. White Zetsu clones were very special. They could restore their chakra through photosynthesis.
More than 30,000 White Zetsu appeared out of the sand in an instant. A huge white spot suddenly appeared in the middle of the desert, but now they looked very different.
They weren't going to attack the Shinobi army with their bare hands.
All of these 30,000 White Zetsu were holding a wooden shield in their left hand and a dark green wooden spear in their right. Some White Zetsu who possessed a large amount of chakra even had wooden armor on their bodies.
Zetsu could use the simplest wood techniques. After all, it was created from Hashirama's cells.
Although his clones couldn't use powerful wood techniques, they could easily create weapons or armor for themselves.
In other words, it wasn't an ordinary tree at all, but something that was obtained by sacrificing a small amount of Hashirama cells and a large amount of chakra.
Thirty thousand Zetsu, armed with wooden shields and spears, formed three phalanxes, each with 10,000 men.
They looked very impressive and looked like a regular army.
Seeing this scene, Su Xiao nodded in satisfaction, but after a few seconds, the sound of footsteps could be heard.
The Zetsu began to change formation, and the originally neat lines were broken. Since the clones didn't know too well how and where they were supposed to stand, some of the White Zetsu even fell to the sand.
Bubtney, who was sitting next to Su Xiao, saw this scene and looked at Su Xiao with eyes that almost said, " Master, although I shouldn't say this, I think they are just a bunch of idiots».
— Don't get your hopes up too high on them, though I'm surprised he was able to achieve even that much.
The white Zetsu began to form three " T " - shaped shapes. It was an attacking formation. It would stretch the White Zetsu as much as possible and thus reduce the damage from large-scale ninjutsu attacks..
Even if the first rows of White Zetsu die, the subsequent rows will become a sharp cone inserted into the opponent's heart.
— Kill him! There was a roar from the direction of the shinobi alliance, and all the shinobi of the second division rushed towards the Zetsu clones.
When Su Xiao saw these shouting shinobi rushing forward, he didn't rate them any better than the Zetsu army.
He had heard the killing cries of soldiers in the world of war. When they shouted "Kill, kill, kill", their screams froze the blood in my veins, and these screams actually sounded a little strange.
The Shinobi Alliance took the initiative, but the White Zetsu didn't stand still.
Three " T " - shaped formations, standing in a semicircle, went towards the Shinobi.
Given the Zetsu formation and weapons, even though thousands of Zetsu would die from shinobi techniques before the battle started, they would definitely be able to deal serious damage to the second unit in hand-to-hand combat.
However, a few seconds after the White Zetsu charged, the smiles gradually disappeared from Su Xiao and Bubtni's faces.
The three " T " - shaped formations disappeared ten seconds after the movement started.
More than 30,000 Zetsu started moving towards the second division in one big rabble.
— This... A real rabble, " Su Xiao said, and slowly pulled out his long sword from its scabbard.
These Zetsu could only be used as cannon fodder.
