Build the Swarm Tech Tree in Konoha

Chapter 170 Summary after the Battle

After the breakout, countless insects still followed the traces and caught up with them. Chief Terumi had to leave the wounded behind and take everyone to escape quickly.

On the way to escape, Chief Terumi kept leaving behind thick melting fog, which made the chasing bugs lose the ability to run. However, the scale of the bug swarm was very large, and new bugs were constantly joining in. The pursuit distance was also getting closer and the most deadly.

Unfortunately, the incarnation of Aburame Tetsumaru finally caught up.

"We can't continue like this. Someone must stay to hold off the pursuers."

Terumi clan leader stopped, looked at Mizukage and said, "Mizukage-sama, I leave the Terumi family and my daughter to you and Genshi."

Mizukage stared at the ninja that he had ignored for a long time, as if he wanted to imprint his image into his heart. He nodded without hesitation and agreed: "Okay, as long as I live, I will never let anything happen to the Terumi family."

He pointed at the tribesmen carrying Mizukage and said, "You continue to retreat with Mizukage, I will stay."

"Clan leader!?"

"Don't talk nonsense, let's go quickly, don't let me die in vain." After saying that, the Terumi clan leader turned around without looking back and walked towards the direction of the insect swarm.

As he walked, he performed ninjutsu, and white mist of strong acid spurted out from his mouth, extending to both sides, gradually obscuring his figure.

The Kiri ninjas of the Terumi clan retreated toward the eastern coast with the Mizukage on their backs in tears.

…

But not all Kiri ninjas are like Mizukage or Terumi clan leader, who can fight resolutely until the last moment.

The fastest ones to escape the collapsed Kirigakure army were the Jonin, and the faster ones were the elites among them, such as the Seven Blades.

But no matter how fast the speed is, as long as it does not meet the standard of divine speed, it will not necessarily help them increase their chances of escape, and it may even have the opposite effect.

"It scared me to death. It was Mizukage-sama's ice escape!" The glacier passed by. Muri Jinpachi was startled and touched his head in fear. The glacier that spread over happened to freeze a group of people who besieged him.

A swarm of insects.

After taking a few breaths, Muuri Jinpachi quickly picked up the sword and continued to run away.

But he didn't know that he had been targeted. The movements during the battle with the explosive swords and splashes were very exaggerated and absolutely earth-shattering. Muuri Jinhachi had long been firmly targeted by the Lord Insect in the sky. As an important target, he

He even monopolized the attention of a lord insect, how could he possibly escape.

Before he could run very far, he saw swarms of praying mantises and cockroaches coming towards him from a distance. Muri Jinpachi, who knew something was wrong, began to run away frantically. When he realized that he was being

He was surrounded, swooping around like headless flies, and the explosion caused by the explosive knife droplet attack attracted more and more bugs to gather towards him.

Twenty minutes later, the disheveled Muuri Jinpachi was finally surrounded by hundreds of praying mantises. He dropped the blasting sword droplets in his hands in despair, covered his face with his hands and knelt on the ground, surrendering shamefully.

Then, under the watchful eyes of hundreds of praying mantises, a Lord Insect descended from the sky, stretched out its long tentacles, rolled up Muuri Jinpachi, and took him to the sky.

Muuri Jinpachi was frightened. He had never seen such a huge monster, not even the rampaging Three-Tails, had such a huge body.

After being brought to the sky, the cold and scared Kirigakure ninja collapsed to the extreme when he saw hundreds of Lord Insects floating in the air. He cried: "You are so powerful, just make a deal, we will

Surrendered. Why are we still fighting? What are you doing?"

…

There are many Kiri ninjas who have surrendered like Muuri Jinpachi. Regarding these people, Aburame Tetsumaru's opinion is very simple and can be used, but it is not trustworthy.

As a result, a large number of surrendered Kirigakure ninjas were reorganized, the original organizational structure was disrupted, and they were directly thrown onto an uninhabited desert island to begin training.

What makes Aburame Tetsumaru and others regretful is that they cannot adopt the set of working methods they are most familiar with. In fact, if they think about it, first of all, their own methods are not qualified to apply that method.

Besides, all ninjas can be said to be the top thugs of the ruling class, and it is impossible to directly transform them into their own power using that method.

But Aburame Tetsumaru has another way, because the essence of ninja is a mercenary, and if you have breasts, you are a mother.

The characteristics of ninjas may not be so obvious in Konoha Village, but this is the divided Kirigakure Village, the "blood mist" where companions kill each other. When Aburame Tetsumaru sent the money-spreading method, Kirigakure ninjas were very

It's hard not to give in.

Especially these ninjas who surrendered are 100% spineless and will naturally surrender easily. Of course, there must be one or two ninjas among them, but this has nothing to do with the overall situation.

After these ninjas are retrained and reorganized to form independent ninja teams, Aburame Tetsumaru will assign them to the lord's subordinates to reorganize the Kirigakure Village into a more dispersed one.

Such Kirigakure villages will lose even their basic administrative capabilities and even have no finances. They will be dependent on the mission system re-established by Aburame Tetsumaru and become the force tool used by Aburame Tetsumaru to rule the Kingdom of Water.

As for the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Water, we must also deal with it, and let his children, brothers, or even other relatives, whoever he wants, become the new Daimyo.

Then establish an alliance of local lords, establish a lords' assembly based on the principle of free veto power, evacuate the administrative power of the daimyo, and build the country of water into a great ninja world.

Yes, it is the Great Congress of Warsaw that holds meetings when nothing is decided, and votes when meetings are held. It voted fifty-five times in a hundred years and was passed only seven times.

The lords also need to have an army and distribute their ninja squads to ensure their voting rights and enough confidence to bring endless trouble to the Kingdom of Water.

Only Aburame Tetsumaru, who was hiding behind the scenes, could mobilize all the local lords and urge them to reach a unified opinion through both economic and absolute force. In this way, Aburame Tetsumaru became the only one who could judge everything in the Kingdom of Water.

The master behind things.

In this way, the weakness and incompetence of the Water Kingdom will become the norm, serving as a puppet in the hands of Aburame Tetsumaru and acting as his white glove to interfere in the ninja world.

有了这个白手套,油女铁丸就可以相对放心的伸出手,去和隐藏在幕后的诸位仙人们掰掰手腕,而不用担心被人抓住手狠狠的揍一顿.

The worst case scenario is to just leave the gloves in someone else's hands and you can take action at any time. As for what will happen to the gloves?

Then it depends on whether the hearts of the great immortals sitting opposite are kind enough. Anyway, Aburame Tetsumaru will not admit that he is the hand, and this matter has nothing to do with him.

…

"I can't fight the Kirigakure Village, but I'm still very good at fighting." The incarnation of Aburame Tetsumaru shook off the solution on his hand, which was the secretion of the colonial armor that was decomposed after being hit by the Melting Release and Kirigakujutsu.

.

Another incarnation was also wiping his abdominal armor, and the damage he suffered was much more serious. Not only was the armor dissolved, but the underlying muscles were not saved, exposing the hollow interior.

Blocking the hole with a piece of cloth, the avatar said with emotion: "Melt Release, it is a very dangerous blood succession ninjutsu."

Kakuzu didn't have so much sadness. Even though he was the most corrupted among the three, it didn't stop him from carefully collecting and sealing the head of the prey while flipping through her little notebook.

"Kakuzu, you should know what money is by now, why are you still so persistent?"

"I know, but I still like it. Making money can make me happy, so why not make money?"

(◇)

"Okay, as long as personal hobbies don't affect others, you shouldn't comment on them."

Clean up the battlefield and clean up the mess.

This process lasted for almost two days, and then it was time to consider what to do next.

The escaped incarnation said proudly: "You don't need to tell me, I already know that you can't go straight in and destroy the enemy in one fell swoop, right?"

"You're absolutely right. Next, we will continue to eat step by step."

"When fighting in a large group, we have an absolute advantage, but in the battle after being dispersed, our insect swarm is obviously lacking."

All the Aburame Tetsumaru incarnations nodded in agreement. It took them less than seven hours to defeat 16,000 Kirigakure ninjas, with a total loss of no more than 4,000 mantises.

When the army of Kirigakure Village was defeated and collapsed, the encirclement and suppression campaign launched by the Iron Pills lasted for twelve hours, and a total of 20,000 praying mantises were lost, and forty-one giant wind insects were attacked by Kirigakure.

The hidden ninja was ambushed and died in battle.

Among the nearly a thousand encirclement and suppression battles counted, the few battles won were those involving the incarnation of Tetsumaru Aburome, or elite ninjas like Kakuzu and Masao Aburame.

More than 800 other battles were fought by insects alone. Regardless of whether they won or lost, the loss ratio was quite ugly. If most Kirigakure ninjas had not chosen to surrender, it would have been absolutely impossible for the losses to increase to two or three times from the current basis.

exaggerate.

Faced with such a realistic situation, there is no need to think about marching straight into Kirigakure Village directly. Once the Kirigakure is dragged into guerrilla warfare mode, it is really possible to do it over and over again for several years, and then it will be over.

And half of their number of bugs is enough to fill an island, with legs touching legs butts and heads touching. Therefore, when the battlefield is limited to an island, it is impossible for the Mist Ninja to have the strength to resist.

Fight against the absolutely superior insect swarm.

If the Mizukage was stupid and really invested such a large-scale force on an island, it would be a repeat of today's battle, and the final result would be that the Mist ninja was completely wiped out by intensive firepower.

If Mizukage drives Aburame Tetsumaru into a panic, it's possible to plant a few mushrooms.

Therefore, it is easy to draw a conclusion. The insect swarm should be conquered one island at a time. After the occupation is consolidated, then go to the next batch of islands. Replenish the insect swarm while conquering it. Take your time and don't rush.

It can be summed up in six words: build a stronghold and fight stupidly.

The facts were clear and there was basically no room for dispute, so the war strategy for the next stage was quickly determined.

…

After a truly practical war of annihilation has concluded a key battle, experiences and lessons should be summed up, not only limited to the strategy of the Kingdom of Water, but also involve higher-level strategic discussions.

This high-level meeting will not be held in the Kingdom of Water, or even in reality...

In the sea of ​​​​spirits, all the Aburame Tetsumaru gathered together for a general discussion.

"This battle fully demonstrated our weaknesses and strengths. Our insect swarm is not fully adapted to the war in the ninja world."

"Now, we can win all frontal battles, but the slowness shown in the scattered encirclement and suppression to harvest the fruits of victory, as well as the extremely high loss ratio, are so shocking."

"We must pay more attention to the problem of lack of elites. We need to immediately adjust the focus of our work and achieve a breakthrough as soon as possible."

The problem of insufficient elite strength exposed in the Moon War was even more obvious in the Ninja World's invasion of the Land of Water.

The ninja world is not an endless space, because there are no terrain restrictions, and the absolute superior overall strength is enough to overwhelm the elite.

But this is not possible in the ninja world. The ninja world is very suitable for guerrilla warfare, and the power that an individual from the extraordinary world can exert in guerrilla warfare is simply too exaggerated.

The jounin of Kirigakure Village were nothing more than a group of relatively high-level cannon fodder when fighting on the frontal battlefield. Under the first round of focused fire attack, dozens of jounin were turned into ashes without even taking a chance.

But after they dispersed and fled, they achieved more results in their escape than their large army on the frontal battlefield. How ironic.

The insect swarm also needs such elites and its own heroic units. It cannot always let the incarnation of Aburame Tetsumaru temporarily take on such responsibilities. Sacrifice of one would be a heavy loss that is irreparable.

But how exactly should you start?

"Well, I suddenly thought of a problem. It seems that in the sea of ​​souls, there is a ball of light of Hatake Sakumo hanging below me."

"I forgot all about it."

"Me too, for several years."

"Main body, I'll look for Orochimaru when I get back today. It's not a short time. I think it's time to change the situation in the Reincarnation of the Earth."

"Yes, we don't rely on this kind of puppet. We just need a way to touch the soul. If we can get the Konoha White Fang out and stuff it into a bug, we don't know what kind of monster we can create with his soul."

"Yes, launching a challenge from this angle may challenge Otsutsuki Hagoromo more than occupying the whole world. Maybe it will make the Sage of Six Paths jump."

Hey hey hey, a large group of Aburame Tetsumaru laughed maliciously. As the construction of Purple Thunder Star has made significant progress, they are becoming more and more interested in provoking the Six Paths Sage.

"Okay, I'll talk to Orochimaru when I get back today. He's already taken our money, and it's time to give him results. If he wants us to be the one who takes advantage of him, he's not qualified."

"Then let's do it. If there's nothing else, let's all disband."

"Wait!" An avatar jumped out, "No matter what happens with Orochimaru, we have something we can do now."

Aburame Tetsumaru and most of the incarnations looked at each other. Is there anything else missing?

It's impossible.

The Solar Lens Project? The First Planet Exploration Plan? The Dyson Sphere Project? Aren’t these all conditions that are insufficient and cannot be implemented?

"We should be able to crack the sealing technique that Sage of Six Paths added to his mother now, right? Can we restart the Kaguya strategy?"

"..."

Have we conquered Princess Kaguya? When?

The avatars began to whisper, and they even suspected that they had encountered the "Mandela Effect".

Aburame Tetsumaru knew very well that there was no such thing at all, it was just the incarnation of this bastard who was talking nonsense. He said to this incarnation viciously: "You have a name, thief Cao!"
