Chapter 148: The Final Battle!

Chapter 148: The Final Battle!

After encouraging himself, he regained a lot of his spirits.

But suddenly a thought will pop into my head.

I doubt my brother will become a Jonin anytime soon.

No, no!

Probably not!

He's so young, it's already quite an achievement for someone to appreciate him and promote him to Special Jonin. Jonin are different; they need the Hokage's personal approval, so he'll have a long road ahead!

If you work hard, your strength will definitely increase rapidly when you start to grow, and you'll even have a chance to surpass your older brother!

After organizing a counterattack, Konoha's morale rebounded significantly. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Tsunade summoned the Jonin and made a new round of deployments for the camp's defenses.

The arrangements for personnel patrol rotations, the expansion of the alert zone, and the incremental support following the Sand Village's surprise attack were all made more detailed.

In addition, the ninjas who launched the campaign camp used the terrain to set up a large number of defensive traps, clearly intending to implement the defense policy more thoroughly.

Faced with Konoha's firm defensive policy, Sunagakure began to launch frequent attacks, or rather, harassment.

At night, in the early morning, or even when it's just getting light, there's no fixed time or obvious pattern; Sunagakure could launch a surprise attack at any time.

Sunagakure was also exhausted, but Konoha, which had been on the defensive, was more affected.

Faced with the Sand Village's frequent attacks, endless poisons, and powerful puppets, Konoha, despite having the advantage of terrain, was still at a disadvantage, with high casualty rates and increasingly low morale.

"Lady Tsunade, this can't go on!"

"Go ahead and fight!"

"Yes! Let's fight!"

"If a real fight breaks out, our chances of winning are much higher!"

Inside the large tent, a group of Jonin, their eyes bloodshot, were agitated and gesturing nervously.

The attacks of the past few days have left them in dire straits. If even the Jonin are suffering, the lower-ranking ninjas are in even worse shape, with many already showing signs of exhaustion and mental fog.

"Lady Tsunade, if this continues, the camp will be in serious trouble!"

"Yes! We can't just sit here and take the beating!"

"Lady Tsunade, we can lead the army in a surprise attack on Sunagakure! I'll be the vanguard!"

Faced with the Jonin's request to fight, Tsunade, sitting in the main seat, rubbed her temples and said in a deep voice, "Quiet down first."

"Let me think about it."

Faced with the commander's hesitation, the Jonin became even more anxious.

They had long seen through Tsunade's desire to avoid battle. At first, things were alright, but the Sand Village's poison was truly potent. If this continued, Konoha would be slowly worn down by the Sand Village.

"Lady Tsunade, what else is there to think about? Let's start the war!"

"Yes! Let's start the war!"

"It's better to die on the battlefield than in your own camp!"

"Even if I die, I'll take a few Sand Village scum with me!"

People were excited.

Tsunade knew that things couldn't continue like this, so she looked at Hiashi Hyuga, the deputy commander of the Southwest Front.

"Hiashi Jounin."

What do you mean?

Hiashi Hyuga calmly replied, "I obey Lady Tsunade's orders."

Tsunade was not satisfied with this answer.

Her gaze swept across the noisy Jonin before finally settling on a few silent individuals.

"Nakamori Jonin, what do you think?"

A square-faced Jonin thought for a moment and said, "Given the current situation, taking the initiative has a greater advantage."

"What's Matsumoto Jonin's opinion?"

"I don't know, but they all seem to make sense."

"Inoue Jounin?"

"Kitada Jonin?"

Tsunade asked them one by one.

After asking all the veteran Jonin in front of her, she suddenly looked at Shingetsu Seiun, who had remained silent behind her.

Even though he tried to reduce his presence as much as possible, his outstanding appearance still made him stand out from the crowd.

"Nebula Jonin, what do you mean?"

"Me?" Shingetsu Seiun was taken aback, almost pointing at himself and asking Tsunade if she had asked the wrong person.

"I'm just a particularly skilled ninja."

Tsunade said, "Let's brainstorm now, regardless of whether we're special Jonin or Jonin." Besides—although he hasn't been promoted yet, judging from his strength, Shingetsu Seiun has already reached the level of a Jonin.

"Tell me your thoughts."

Faced with Tsunade's question, Shingetsu Seiun pondered for a moment.

In the past, he might have given an ambiguous answer like some Jonin, or followed Tsunade's instructions like Hiashi Hyuga.

However, the harassment and fighting over the past few days have made him see the situation on the battlefield more clearly.

On the battlefield, danger won't stay away from you just because you avoid fighting.

There is no significant difference in risk between a defensive posture and an offensive one. In fact, being passive is often more dangerous.

In addition, his conversation with Izumo Kamatsuki, who had recently come to deliver supplies, ultimately had some influence on him.

After sorting out his thoughts, Shingetsu Seiun looked at Tsunade and said seriously.

"Lady Tsunade, I think he deserves to be hit."

Tsunade wasn't surprised; she simply said, "Tell me your reasons."

Shenyue Xingyun said, "Based on the current situation, the possibility of Sha Yin retreating is extremely slim."

"While a purely defensive approach may allow us to hold off Sunagakure for a limited time, I believe a decisive battle is inevitable."

"Delaying time is tantamount to handing the initiative in the decisive battle to the enemy, which I think is unacceptable."

"Judging from the recent casualties at the camp, the poison from Sunagakure is becoming increasingly potent. What if one day we can't handle the enemy's toxins in time?"

He didn't say what came next, but the meaning was self-evident.

If Sunagakure and Chiyo create an even more potent poison, Konoha will lose the initiative, and their already limited advantage will completely disappear.

After listening to Shingetsu Seiun finish speaking, Tsunade's expression became much more serious.

The other party made no attempt to conceal anything and stated the worst-case scenario.

She turned around, her back to the crowd, and looked at the large battle map in front of her, her eyes flashing.

Should we continue to avoid battle, or launch a full-scale attack?

Tsunade was still struggling internally.

Given the current troop strength of Konoha and Sunagakure, a decisive battle would be a gamble. Although Konoha appears to have a slight advantage in troop strength and seems to have a better chance of winning, she dares not gamble on such a matter.

However, it seems that if the stalemate continues, Konoha will suffer greater losses than Sunagakure. If this continues, their current numerical advantage may disappear.

Or, as Shingetsu Seiun said, if one day Chiyo creates a poison that they can't handle in time, then Konoha will truly be in danger.

Looking at the ravines on the map before her, she seemed to see the deaths and wails of the ninjas, her expression constantly changing.

Knowing that the commander was at a crucial moment of contemplation, the noisy chatter subsided, and the tent was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Time passed little by little.

Tsunade remained silent throughout.

Just as some impatient Jonin were about to interrupt, Tsunade made her move.

She turned around, her eyes no longer hesitant, and spoke solemnly.

"Prepare for the final battle!"
