Under Honglei's instigation, four hundred passionate men were selected. There was not a single jounin among them, and almost all of them were young people with little qualifications. This basically guaranteed Honglei's command authority.

This is very important. If this action is recorded on paper, then it will be, 'Under the leadership of the Lion Star Todoroki, four hundred ninjas launched a surprise attack on Iwagakure Village', not that he became the 'four hundred people'

'One of them, led by someone, launched a surprise attack on Iwagakure.

Honglei firmly occupies the absolute leadership position here with the support of Kara and Samyi. One of them is a supernova among the combat troops, and the other is a disciple of Qilabi, the sworn brother of the Fourth Thunder. The two of them are among the young people.

They all have quite a reputation.

In the end, Honglei also applied for a large number of detonating charms from the deputy commander. The hospitable Kumogakure ninjas took out their own money, and nearly three thousand elite ninjas just gave him more than three thousand detonating charms.

.

He quietly collected a thousand of them himself, and distributed the rest among the 400 people, who each had about five or six.

The surprise attack by Todoroki and the others could not be detected by Iwagakure, so he asked his deputy commander to cover them up.

The arrow was on the string and had to be fired. The deputy commander accepted Hong Lei's request with a calm face. He immediately turned around and started to arrange it. He was the deputy commander appointed by San Lei personally. Hong Lei believed that he could complete this task perfectly.

The time has come to midnight, sixteen hours have passed since San Lei broke off alone. Hong Lei remembers that in the plot, San Lei died of exhaustion after fighting for three days and three nights. Although this is just a reference, Hong Lei also

We must take these 400 people to Iwagakure Village within two days.

Hong Lei looked back and saw that the four hundred troops were sleeping. After these people gathered, Hong Lei asked them to eat and rest immediately. The next journey would not be easy at all.

Soon, the deputy commander came back and said to Hong Lei, "We have arranged the matter. When do you plan to leave?"

Todoroki took a look at the sky, and then said, "Let's do it now. Lord Raikage doesn't know how long we can last. We have to get to Iwagakure Village quickly."

The deputy commander nodded, and then said with a complicated expression, "I don't know whether it is right or wrong to ask you to do this. I just hope you don't disappoint us."

"Only time can prove whether it is right or wrong, and this is our best choice now, otherwise we can't even say how many of these three thousand people will return to Kumogakure, right?"

The deputy commander was silent for a moment. He turned around and left without speaking, while Hong Lei began to assemble the 400-man troops.

At 4:20 in the morning, Kumogakure's large army left the hiding valley, and immediately began to take action with great fanfare. They searched for and hunted the patrolling Iwagakure ninjas everywhere, and also gave up the concealment regulations and began to hunt.

Wild animals come to make fire to satisfy their hunger.

They didn't have much food left before, and almost all of it was concentrated in Honglei's hands, so hunting was inevitable, but now it's just a little earlier.

However, many of the beasts in the ninja world are big guys that can reach more than ten meters in length. They actually have no shortage of food. It's just that the noise and the smell of blood caused by hunting these large beasts will attract Iwagakure's attention.

As they expected, Iwagakure also knew that they were short of food, so after Kumogakure started hunting with great fanfare, they did not have any doubts, but quickly mobilized their manpower and rushed towards the place where they appeared.

Hong Lei and the others took advantage of the deputy commander to attract Iwagakure's attention for them, quietly walked out of the valley, turned around and started galloping towards Iwagakure Village.

On the way, Honglei recruited forty speed-type ninjas and asked them to explore the road ahead. If they encountered Iwagakure's patrol, they could avoid it. If they couldn't avoid it, they would use their speed advantage to annihilate them all!

Hong Lei was in charge of the overall situation, and at the same time he kept complaining to Kara and the other four that they should not be involved in such a dangerous operation at all!

However, it is obvious that he cannot speak four words with one mouth.

Honglei, who was speechless after being sprayed, could only lower his head and walk silently.

The size of the 400-man troop was too large, and there were too many traces left in the woods to hide. Hong Lei could only choose sparsely populated areas according to the map. The 400-man troop was on the river, in the canyon, and in the tree canopy.

Under the leadership of the police, they galloped all night, constantly approaching Yanyin Village.

"Captain Lion Star!" A Kumo ninja suddenly rushed back from the front, "Iwagakure's stronghold was discovered ahead!"

Stronghold!? This route should be safe!

Hong Lei raised his hand and made everyone stop. Then he immediately spread out the map and asked the Yun Ninja opposite, "Where is the stronghold? How many people are there on the other side?"

Yun Nin pointed at their route, "The stronghold is right here. There are about thirty people in the stronghold. The stronghold is a small wooden fort that looks relatively new."

Is it a temporary stronghold? Hong Lei dragged his chin and thought about it. A day and a half has passed. They are now only about half a day away from Iwagakure Village. On the way, they also cleared away some patrolling Iwagakure ninjas.

Maybe this attracted Iwagakure's attention, so they added a temporary reconnaissance base in this place as a warning.

Honglei checked the map and found that their route was between two large strongholds. If they took a detour, they would have to go very far, but this was too late in terms of time.

Honglei's eyes narrowed. If the thirty people were faster, they should be able to deal with them before the Iwagakure group sent out a signal. And even if they failed, Honglei and the others could use their speed to rush back with the reinforcements in Iwagakure.

Previously, we invaded the empty interior of Iwagakure Village.

After making the decision, Honglei immediately began to discuss the details of the action with everyone. Mabuyi had a very keen insight in strategy, while Samui showed outstanding talents in tactics.

And Kara, she is a super star in the combat force. She has been active on the front line and can accurately seize the fleeting fighter opportunities on the fleeting battlefield.

As for the twigs.

Well, wouldn’t it be nice to have a mascot?

Xiaozhi:???

It took ten minutes to agree on the action plan and ten minutes to arrange the personnel, but the entire battle process lasted less than five minutes.

In this stronghold, the only one who could pose a threat to them was a jounin, but with the cooperation of the three teams, Honglei eliminated him in almost no time.

After the operation, Mabuyi directed the cloud ninjas to start putting out fires everywhere. Xiaozhi was helping the injured ninja to start treatment. Kara and Samui led the team to the front of the thunder, and then threw a scarred Iwa ninja.

In front of Hong Lei, "We have confirmed that he is the intelligence ninja here."
