Steady Spicy? Finished Spicy!

On the northern border front, the Hidden Leaf Village once again found itself in a stalemate.

Originally, it was thought that Uchiha Kagami, who had perfectly fused with Hashirama's power, could drive the invaders out of the country in one fell swoop and lead the village to victory. However, to everyone's surprise, the Hidden Cloud Village frantically mobilized two Tailed Beasts, causing the frontline war to become strained again.

Faced with these natural disaster-level monsters, the Hidden Leaf Ninjas had to endure unprecedented pressure every day. What's more, there was Kinkaku constantly interfering and containing them from the rear, waiting for an opportunity to launch sneak attacks.

Even Kagami, the village's strongest ninja at present, felt overwhelmed. He tried his best to protect his companions, but faced with the powerful force of the Tailed Beasts, many ninjas were still unable to resist, resulting in heavy casualties.

In order to protect more companions, Kagami disregarded everyone's advice and chose to protect his companions even if it meant giving up territory, so as to preserve more living strength. He could not bear to watch his companions being slaughtered by the Tailed Beasts.

It was under this strategy that the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails were like two huge bulldozers, and no one dared to stand in their way. The cunning Cloud Village troops followed behind the Tailed Beasts from a distance, waiting for them to destroy the Hidden Leaf's positions before coming out to deliver the final blow and pick up the scraps.

With the help of the Tailed Beasts, the Cloud Ninjas pushed all the way, once again stationing their positions outside Kikyo Mountain.

In this life-and-death battle, Tobirama decided to take a risk and sent Hyuga Harukaze, another Kage-level powerhouse who was guarding the home.

This seemingly simple order was the result of two weeks of debate among the higher-ups.

Some people estimated that the entire Hidden Cloud Village had now mobilized almost all of its forces. The Second Raikage, together with Ginkaku, led a surprise attack team to fight on the eastern front, while Kinkaku also cooperated with the two Tailed Beasts to advance on the northern main battlefield. At best, the Hidden Cloud Village had no more powerhouses.

Although the elite troops had been wiped out by Uchiha Kagami for the most part, the successive dispatch of the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails also proved that they had reached the end of their rope.

At this time, if they could send a strong person to lead an assassination squad to bypass the battlefield silently, go straight to the Hidden Cloud Village, destroy the Hidden Cloud high-level, and then occupy the Hidden Cloud Village, then all problems would be solved.

The Cloud Ninjas fighting outside would lose their supplies, lose all intelligence, and their morale would be scattered, turning them into completely unowned generals, lonely ghosts.

At this time, if they adopted a roundabout strategy and let Hidden Leaf's sharpest knife—Uchiha Kagami—take the lead to defeat the enemy's remaining forces one by one, victory would completely belong to Hidden Leaf.

However, most people still held opposing opinions. They believed that guarding Hidden Leaf was the top priority, which was beyond doubt.

The situation was turbulent, and wars were raging outside. The original peace treaty no longer existed. At this time, it would be a big mistake to regard only the Hidden Cloud Village as the enemy. No one could guarantee that those small countries with different intentions, as well as the Land of Wind, which had always been standing still, would not suddenly aim at this weak moment and launch an attack.

The consequences of this matter would be devastating. Once it happened, Hidden Leaf would face a catastrophe and fall into an abyss of eternal doom.

As a high-level, even if they died, they could not gamble with the lives of ordinary villagers.

After a week of fermentation, almost all the villagers learned about this matter.

They took the initiative to petition, expressing their strong willingness to "die for Hidden Leaf," and begged the higher-ups to implement the "Decapitation Plan." After all, even insignificant ordinary villagers were still members of Hidden Leaf. If they could exchange victory in this way, they would have no regrets.

At this moment, Hashirama's "Will of Fire" seemed to take root in everyone's heart.

With the united will, Tobirama finally passed the "Decapitation Plan" proposal and sent Hyuga Harukaze, who had been guarding the home, to launch a surprise attack on the Hidden Cloud Village!

...

At the same time, the eastern front.

In the Hidden Leaf camp, everyone was busy. The logistics troops were stepping up the fortification of the camp, while moving out supplies. The ninjas patrolling outside did not dare to be careless in the slightest, and the medical camp was also bustling with people, carrying out the task of transferring the wounded.

Obviously... a great battle was about to begin.

But what was surprising was that some ninjas were using Earth Release Ninjutsu to bury countless Exploding Tags in every corner of the camp.

In the main camp, Uzumaki Mito quickly removed her original armor and put on an ordinary Hidden Leaf Ninja uniform, put on a mask, and tied up her red hair at the same time, and then used a hood to hide it.

After changing her clothes, she took a few deep breaths, slightly relieved the fatigue between her brows, and slowly walked out of the tent.

Outside the tent, a reconnaissance squad had already assembled.

"Lord Mito, Squad Seven is ready to go at any time." The leading ninja raised his head, revealing a pair of pure, white eyes.

"Thank you for your hard work." Lord Mito waved her hand. "Move out!"

After days of fighting, Mito was increasingly annoyed by Ginkaku's fly-like harassment. This guy not only hid his head and showed his tail, but also only started acting during battles, which was extremely despicable.

Because of his sneak attacks, Mito had to be distracted during battles. While facing the Second Raikage, she also had to take care of the rear battle line, which made her more and more exhausted.

Therefore, today's plan was born.

She decided to use a Shadow Clone to face the Second Raikage, while her real body disguised as an ordinary Hidden Leaf Village patrol team, using the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan to search for Ginkaku's whereabouts, and then personally intercept and kill him.

However, this meant that Hidden Leaf Village would inevitably be defeated by the Second Raikage, and Cloud Village would swallow part of their position.

This was also unavoidable. Mito was prepared for this, and the previous transfer work was for this moment!

Even if they sacrificed part of their position, they had to completely eradicate this tumor, Ginkaku!

As a flare shot straight into the sky, Mito's eyes sharpened, and the front-line troops had already engaged.

Soon, with the search comparable to a radar probe, the ninja of the Hyuga Clan also discovered Ginkaku's whereabouts.

He did not lead any Cloud Ninja, and broke into the blockade line alone.

Relying on the Basho Fan and a huge amount of Chakra, a casual blow was a map-wide attack. The gale howled, the flames raged, and from time to time, floods poured in and lightning streaked across the sky. Ordinary Jonin were not his opponents at all, and even normal confrontation was a luxury.

"Found you!"

Mito activated the Body Flicker Technique, instantly fleeing to Ginkaku's back, and at the moment of raising her hand, several thick golden chains burst out!

A fierce look flashed in her eyes, and the tips of the chains shone with a cold light, rubbing against the air to create a distorted airflow!

Ginkaku turned his head in astonishment, subconsciously raised the Basho Fan, and an earth wall rose from the ground, protecting him.

Only a series of "popping" sounds were heard, and the Adamantine Chains pierced through the earth wall, entangling Ginkaku's Basho Fan and his entire arm. Mito pulled hard, and the chains were immediately pulled straight by the huge force.

Ginkaku's strong body, at this moment, broke through the wall like a chick and shot uncontrollably in front of Mito.

"I've been waiting for this moment for a long time!"

Mito put her five fingers together and stabbed fiercely at Ginkaku's brow. During the process, dark red Tailed Beast Chakra wrapped her entire arm, suddenly expanding and turning into a gray-blue sharp insect claw!

"The game is over!" Ginkaku widened his eyes, but what flickered in his pupils was not fear, but... excitement.

"Puchi."

Without any accident, Ginkaku's head was pierced by the insect claw, and in the next second, it exploded into a blood mist with a "bang", and a headless Corpse, along with the Basho Fan, fell to the ground.

"Success!"

"Lord Mito is mighty!"

"Steady! Ginkaku is dead, we don't have to be restrained anymore!"

Suddenly, in the panicked eyes of everyone, the already dead Ginkaku turned into white smoke, dissipating in wisps.

!!!

"Impossible!"

"Could it be... that the one who has been frequently harassing our positions these days has been a Shadow Clone?"

Lord Mito was shocked, "If this is just a Shadow Clone, then where is his real body?"
