Although Nanao has no intelligence, as a jinchuriki her brute strength is very scary.

The Water Prison Jutsu that could imprison enemies across levels only bought her less than a minute before it failed. Moreover, when the Water Prison Jutsu was forcibly opened, Terumi Mei's water body was also destroyed by Nanao's seven tails.

Stirred into a pile of fragments.

But that was all. The Nanao lost its target and went crazy. Its roar spread far and wide, but even if it searched every inch of the surrounding area, it could not find Terumi Mei's location.

After all, the other party has now dived hundreds of meters underground!

The principle of sneaking in the earth is similar to that of diving. Basically, you use your body to squeeze out the water or soil. The deeper you go, the greater the pressure will naturally be. Moreover, the earth is not like sea water, and the pressure of the earth is stronger.

Ordinary ninjas, even jounin, cannot dive below a hundred meters, because this depth can no longer be contended by just relying on the body. It requires the use of a large amount of chakra to form a protective film on the surface of the body.

Withstand the pressure of the earth.

Moreover, even the most powerful detective ninjutsu in the ninja world has no way of checking the situation tens of meters underground, so it can be said that Terumi Mei, who is under a hundred meters, will not be discovered by anyone at all.

Nanao was going crazy on the ground. She was flapping her wings like a shooting star, hovering in the sky and constantly scanning the surrounding environment. Terumi Mei took this opportunity to slowly leave towards the distance.

Nanao, who had been having trouble for a long time, could only leave in frustration.

At this time, Shikaku, who had evacuated first, had already led his troops far away and entered the forest to avoid detection from the air.

Terumi Mei, on the other hand, quietly rose up from the ground after the chakra in her body was almost exhausted. By this time, Nanao had already disappeared, and even the sky had dimmed.

Terumi Mei recognized the direction again. After stopping the intense consumption, the first-generation cells in her body continued to replenish her chakra, and then she opened the second gate of the Eight Gate Dungeon to restore her body's fatigue.

, and the damage caused to the body by opening the Eight Door Dunjia was quickly restored by the physical activation technique and the healing of the first-generation cells.

This is like a perpetual motion machine, which can provide Terumi Mei with super long combat time and endurance.

It would take at least a day for Shikaku, the others, and Terumi Mei to return to the frontline base, but fortunately they did not encounter the Shennong people who had evacuated from the battlefield, so even if it took a little longer, they were still safe.

After Honglei and the others cleared the battlefield, they also began to return to the frontline base. Although they defeated Shennong's conspiracy this time, everyone was not in a good mood. Tsunade and the others were naturally fine.

However, those Konoha ninjas who faced tens of thousands of transformed bodies suffered a lot of casualties. In this battle, they killed at least fifty people, and some of the injured also suffered irreparable injuries.

And had to retire from ninja.

But after paying so much price, their result was only the massacre of 10,000 innocent civilians.

If this can be called a victory...

So even though they succeeded in their operation, everyone was still feeling very heavy.

"Leo Xing, thank you for what happened earlier." Jiraiya came over. He had already learned that Todoroki sent his men to support Shikaku.

And it was after the ninjas of Avalon went to support that the news that the mission was completed finally came.

So no matter how you look at it, it's all because of those people sent by Honglei.

And even if he was wrong, it didn't matter. Just because the other party could lend a helping hand to Konoha at a critical moment was enough for him to say thank you.

"There is no need to say thank you anymore. If you really want to express something, then come to Cangye Port more often in the future. I heard that many new izakayas have opened there and many beautiful people have been recruited.

Where's the girl?" Jiraiya also has a great reputation in the ninja world, and he has almost as good a reputation as Tsunade. Even on the battlefield, he will try not to kill. If he sees someone encountering difficulties,

, even if he is an enemy, he will lend a helping hand. Jiraiya's reputation has spread through these actions, so now, even the ninjas in enemy villages will respectfully call him "Jiraiya-sama" when they see him.

, his arrival can also increase Avalon's reputation.

Moreover...this guy also likes to drink flower wine, so how can he contribute his share to Cangye Port's GDP?

When Todoroki said this, Jiraiya became serious, "Pretty girls and so on... This is a war time, don't mention this kind of thing to me again!"

"…………"

"…………"

"Really beautiful?"

"Well, it's an exotic place."

After a long march, everyone finally returned to the frontline command base. They had defeated the enemy's plot this time, but the appearance of Nanao made their hearts heavy again.

The enemy's strength increased again.

Moreover, they did not believe that Shennong and Orochimaru would give up, so without any delay, Konoha's reconnaissance ninjas scattered out one after another to look for any information worth noting.

One day later, Shikaku and Terumi Mei also returned to the frontline base, and there were also fifty members of the Guards. However, there was no way to recycle the used shuttle bay, and millions of taels of money were just scattered.

, Honglei came to support, but he even brought his own dry food. If you think about it, it was really a loss.

"Are you in any danger?" Before Terumi Mei entered the base, Todoroki greeted him. This was a genuine Gokage, and Todoroki couldn't take it too seriously.

"No, this time the enemy is the brainwashed Nanao. She has no reason anymore and can only fight by instinct. I was worried about causing her to go berserk, so I also controlled the intensity. The battle process was like an outing.

That's all." Terumi Mei and Todoroki walked side by side towards Avalon's station, and then asked Todoroki, "Have the young men from the Guards returned? How are their conditions?"

"Very good. There were no casualties. The chakra armor is still very useful. This operation also allowed them to accumulate a lot of experience, which can help them grow up quickly."

"Um."
