Chapter 15: Sakura
Picked up a katana and a war spear, and helped each other put on black samurai armor of the same color, and the unified iron country behind them leaned against the flag.
After that, there was no one to coordinate and guide, and all the prepared samurai gradually leaned together, holding the long sword at their waists, the spear pointed obliquely, and the flag behind their backs, row after row.
A neat black phalanx took shape, accompanied by the beat of a drum from an unknown samurai, knock, knock, knock. The samurai strode forward, and the sound of stomping gradually coincided with the beat of the drums.
The drums beat faster and faster, and the samurai's footsteps became faster and faster, rushing towards the cloud ninjas.
"Drink!" The phalanx of samurai who suddenly stopped gave a light drink, and the vertical spear suddenly leaned forward, and the blade of the spear pierced straight ahead.
The tips of each row of spears are as neat as a ruler, and they look cold and glistening in the sun, which has a different kind of beauty.
"There are thirteen,000 elite samurai in the Iron Country, more than the ninjas in the entire Cloud Ninja Village," the third generation of Thunder Shadow explained to Ai Night Moon, who was standing beside him, "This is the military formation of the samurai, and this is probably the last time I can see it." β
As the first neutral country born in the ninja world, and the only neutral country that has existed from beginning to end, the Iron Country has witnessed a lot of things.
The promise of the Iron Nation to become a permanent neutral nation was the beginning of the First Five Shadows Conference. Since the establishment of the Konoha Ninja Village and the imitation of the ninja villages and subsequent ninja villages, it is no longer the ninjas who exist in the form of a single family to conclude a powerful ninja village, and the samurai, who have long since declined, are finally unable to compete, and finally come to an end.
The location of the first meeting of the Five Shadows was in the Land of Iron.
Yun Ren wants to annex the Iron Country, and among the more than 10,000 warriors in the Iron Country, there is no one who is willing to compromise. Out of respect for his opponents, Yun Shinobu returned all his weapons to the samurai.
At the time of the first Hokage, all ninja villages had the ambition to annex small countries, and if the energy could really determine the achievements of a ninja and the future of a ninja village, then the first Hokage, who supported the Iron Country to become a permanently neutral country and promised that it would be protected by the Fire Country, had much more energy than the other four Kage.
The samurai were too weak, weak enough to wipe them all out with shuriken. After all, there is only one samurai who is as strong as Mifune, and there is only one in the entire ninja world.
"It's going to start," Yun Shinobi's dark face was covered with oil paint, and he took out the scroll and looked boredly at the slowly approaching samurai formation, "It's too much to use ninjutsu to deal with them." β
Nearly two hundred cloud ninjas faced the most elite samurai in the land of a thousand irons, and the samurai had no chance of winning.
It's getting closer and closer, and it's within range of the shuriken.
"I don't think it will take ten minutes." Youyun Ren secretly shook the kunai in his hand and said.
"Five minutes." The companion next to him jokingly gave another number.
"It doesn't matter how much time it takes, but the village sent us, remember, there can't be any casualties." The commander of the cloud ninja scanned the circle with his eyes until everyone nodded, "Then, go on, end the Iron Country!" β
The cruelty was explained at the first time. Facing the most elite group of ninjas in Cloud Ninja Village, the vast majority of them were upper ninjas, and the raindrop-like dense shuriken instantly covered the entire military formation.
"First formation, out of formation!"
There was a sound of a long knife coming out of the sheath, "Mystery - slash against the wind!" β
The samurai of the first column jumped up at the same time, using the same techniques, this is the most elite group of guys.
Dozens of blades flashed, and most of the shuriken in the sky was dropped by the sharp sword light.
"MysteryβDancing in the Sky!"
The sound of popping into the flesh was accompanied by the sound of clanging metal, thirty-four samurai came out of the battle, eleven were killed, and the dense shuriken of Yun Ninja's first wave of attacks were all blocked.
"It's amazing." Youyun Ren sniffled and took out his shuriken to start the second wave of attacks, "If those guys attack separately, they will definitely cause us some trouble, why stay together?" β
"Second formation! Out of the line! β
There was another wave of battle flags, this time an attack by the warriors of the Iron Country, and hundreds of spears whistling towards the scattered cloud ninjas.
"Everyone should pay attention, although ......" thought that it would be easy to attack, but there was a scream in the team, and the commander of Yun Ren froze, "Bastard, what's wrong?!" β
"I was smashed!"
It turned out to be an unlucky ghost, and Commander Yun Ren knew it.
The samurai had shuriken, and they also had detonation charms, but these things were all put away by Yun Shinobi.
This is really a fair fight, if you really want to use the detonation charm, the cloud ninjas will have more detonation charms.
Taking advantage of the gap between the cloud ninjas dodging the javelin-like spears, the samurai army suddenly dispersed.
"The third formation!" The gestures in the hands of the samurai who temporarily took over the command were linked, "The Formation of Geese!" Fence them up! β
"It's interesting," the cloud ninja who had returned from the battlefield moved his wrist and shouted at the people around him, "You guys, don't hurt me with ninjutsu!" β
After saying that, he carried a huge ninja knife and rushed out with an instantaneous technique, and split a rushing samurai in half with a volley.
His companion was killed, blood gradually spread on his body, and the four nearby Iron Kingdoms attacked at the same time.
Two attack in front, one from the left and one from the right.
Clang!
Without the unexpected advantage of the instantaneous technique, feeling the power of the ninja knife after the collision, Yun Ren's special ninja eyes were slightly cold, "I am the one who has the advantage in numbers...... The art of clone! β
The close-quarters white-knuckle fighting samurai were still no opponents, and the battle situation was not scorching, but the samurai were almost being crushed unilaterally.
There are a very small number of samurai who can hurt the cloud ninja and even threaten the life of the cloud ninja, but the vast majority of the samurai have no power to parry.
"Thunder Hidden Technique!"
A flash of lightning flashed, and he was forced to die by a white-haired warrior of the Iron Country, and the cloud ninja finally seized the opportunity to escape with stealth techniques.
The next moment, a bright blade passed through his chest, and the samurai's eyes widened and fell straight to the ground.
"Whew!" Yun Ren wiped the sweat from his head, and he touched a shallow wound on his neck, "I was almost killed!" β
Throwing away the ninja sword through the gap, Yun Shinobu picked up the samurai's ninja sword as a trophy to join the next battle.
β¦β¦
Blood flowed everywhere, shattered blades flew everywhere, and the bloody battle attracted everyone's attention.
Yun Shinobi's first casualty was caused by the detonation charm. The famous swordsmanship master of the Iron Country, Kitakimaru, used his superb sword skills to provoke Yun Yin's ninja bag at the cost of his own life, and then more Yun Yin gave up his life and grabbed it in his hand before the detonation charm was recovered by Yun Yin, and immediately detonated.
The first explosion only stunned Yun Yin, and the samurai went even more crazy.
A succession of detonation charms then exploded, and this time there were more Yun Ninja killed.
In an instant, the thunder shone brightly, and there were casualties, and the cloud ninjas had to do their best to deal with the warriors of the Iron Country.
β¦β¦
When the last samurai fell to the ground, the only wound on his body was caused by himself stabbing himself in the heart.
He's probably the weakest samurai in Iron Country, and he's always smart enough to stay behind in battle. Miraculously dodged the shuriken, dodged the detonation charm and ninjutsu, and finally, he was left alone in the end.
He chose to end his life.
The largest dojo in the Iron Country, where all the samurai practiced and were given the long sword to guard the Iron Country. Now, blood and a mess of corpses were piled up all over the dojo, and the blood that had gathered from the large pit opened by the detonation charm was dripping half of the pit.
"Bastard, we've lost eleven of us." Yun Renshang, who had lost an arm, gasped and said hatefully.
The buildings of Iron Country are all quaint and uniform, and cherry blossoms not only fill the streets, but also bloom in almost all the yards.
It's the season when the cherry blossoms fall.
I don't know when the wind started, and the scattered petals were blown up and scattered by the wind, spreading the entire dojo.
Little by little, the pink cherry blossoms fell from the sky and landed on the hilts and armor of the silent samurai. Then it slipped from the hilt of the sword, then fell on the blood stains of the armor, and then the petals were dotted with red.
The red blood stains were diluted by the pink cherry blossoms, and they became a little more beautiful and quiet.
Suddenly there was another breeze, and the whole world was foggy. The dojo and the broken knives were gone.
If the poet or Uehara is here, they will definitely say, "It's beautiful!" β
But it's full of ninjas, "Be careful, it's illusion!" "Yun Ren has a white-eyed guy who wants to catch the enemy's tracks, but the enemy moves too fast, and the range of his vision is limited, so he has lost the enemy several times.
The petals of the cherry blossoms obscured their vision, and the cloud ninjas felt bad.
