Create a swarm technology tree in Konoha

It’s the New Year, and on this day the entire Konoha Village is no longer busy with tasks.

Everyone starts to get busy for the New Year. They sign up for the New Year's Day one day in advance. Even the ramen shop only sells soba noodles for these two days.

On the first day of the new year, people put on their most formal clothes and set out for the Hokage Rock, the highest in the village. Crowds of people gathered in Wuyangwuyang to the top of the mountain to make wishes in the morning sun.

There are also monks from the Fire Temple setting up stalls and drawing lots after hearing the news, and there are also traveling witches from the Kingdom of Ghosts doing rituals and praying for people. Under the blessings of the witches, countless pairs of boys and girls came side by side, and finally left hand in hand.

"It really hasn't been this lively in years."

"The situation this year is indeed getting better and better. If it weren't for Hatake..."

"Freeze said!"

"Oh oh oh, if it hadn't been for that incident, the war might have ceased by now."

"Oh, forget it, Iwagakure should be defeated after the New Year. The war will last until March at most."

"I hope it ends soon, it ends soon."

There are still two enemies of Konoha Village. Although the Konoha White Fang incident caused Kumogakure to restart the war and even Sunagakure became unstable, the impact of the White Fang incident was limited to the morale of senior ninjas. It is impossible for Konoha to reach its peak in a short time. The decline of hard power.

After a series of operations by the Hokage: rewards, family visits, rotations and vacations, as well as large-scale publicity of heroic deeds, the morale of Konoha's lower-level ninjas was boosted, and gradually also led to the high-level ninjas.

After all, they also want to win.

Now that Kumogakure has confirmed that Konohagakure's strength has not declined from its peak, they retreated knowingly, clearly assuming a posture of watching the final battle between Iwagakure and Konoha.

As long as Konoha wins, Kumogakure will simply surrender along with Iwagakure, so now there is actually only one family of enemies left in Konoha.

Of course, if Konoha loses, and nearly 30,000 Konoha ninjas lose to 14,000 Iwagakure ninjas, Kumogakure Village will have no choice but to feel embarrassed.

In any case, now is the time when Konoha has the greatest advantage since the beginning of the war, so that it has the conditions to give the ninjas holidays and rotations. This is the reason why Konoha Village is unprecedentedly lively in the New Year.

…

After the New Year, Konoha Village began to fully mobilize.

Aburame Tetsumaru first received the order. As a member of the Jonin Independent Mobile Force, commonly known as the fire brigade, he needed to report to the Land of Rain.

Then Aburame, Kaze and Aiko Aburame also received their respective orders. As expected, one went to the Kingdom of Birds to participate in the side attack, and the other went to the field hospital in the Kingdom of Grass.

This is when the whole family goes out to fight the Iwa Ninja.

Facing the assembled army of 20,000 ninjas, the Hokage gave an impassioned speech of "the last battle". After the war in Iwa Ninja Village was over, everyone could return to a peaceful life.

Good guy, this flag makes MacArthur call him an expert.

The speech inspired the ninjas to cheer excitedly. From the 31st year of Konoha to the 40th year of Konoha, the war had been going on for nine years, and it was time to end.

This is not only the consensus of the Konoha ninjas, but also the consensus of all the ninjas of the Hidden Leaf Village except the Kirigakure Village. Everyone has also admitted that Konoha Hidden Village is the strongest. Otherwise, Sunagakure Village and Kumogakure Village would not stand idly by. There is no way for Konoha Village to get such an advantageous situation.

Yes, the ninjas of Iwagakure Village also recognized that Konoha Village is the strongest, and even Onoki had wanted to vote for a long time. Unfortunately, this stubborn brat was actually the wisest in Iwagakure Village, and other people from the Earth Country were more powerful than him. Stubborn.

Unless they suffer a disastrous defeat and die in despair, Iwagakure Village will never surrender, absolutely not.

As the Tsuchikage of Iwagakure Village, Ohnoki had no choice but to fight according to everyone's wishes when faced with the unanimous consensus of the whole village.

The Iwagakure Village tried their best and gathered 14,000 ninjas. They could not attack, so they could only set up defenses layer by layer, determined to fight a defensive battle and positional battle that they were best at.

Konoha Village unceremoniously mobilized more than 20,000 fresh troops and gathered 8,000 troops on the front line. The total strength was more than double that of Iwa Ninja.

So Orochimaru and Nara Shikaku simply deployed their forces in full, starting from Shikoku, besieging them on three sides, and organized a total of seven attacking legions.

Especially the main force advancing from the Kingdom of Rain, which totaled ten thousand ninjas. If the country of Rain had not reached the limit of its traffic capacity, Konoha would even want to increase the number to fifteen thousand ninjas.

But if ten thousand ninjas push across, it will still be an unprecedented war pattern. In the past, even if there were tens of thousands of ninjas in a certain direction, that was only the total number. The ninjas would be distributed over hundreds or even thousands of kilometers and would never gather together. Such terrible density.

Facing an army of tens of thousands of people, a mere stronghold of hundreds or hundreds of people was for nothing, it was gone with just a push, and even the battle losses were greater than the Iwa Ninja's losses.

Onoki quickly realized the problem. He retreated everyone to the Kingdom of Earth and relied on the mountainous mountains to resist.

However, Konoha's advancement was only slightly slower, and soon the confrontation between the two sides advanced four hundred kilometers and arrived at the core defense fulcrum of Iwagakure Village: Akagi Mountain Fortress.

Finally, the footsteps of Konoha Village stopped, unable to fight.

…

Mount Akagi is a famous mountain in the Land of Earth, and it is also a rare single-headed mountain. A rocky peak stands abruptly in the middle of a flat valley. It is surrounded by only one main peak and no other mountains. It is the so-called single-headed mountain.

This huge red rocky mountain peak was an important military fortress before the Warring States Period. Samurai warriors thousands of years ago established the earliest fortress to control this fertile valley.

After the establishment of Iwagakure Village in the Earth Country, the Iwa Ninja took control of the fortress, cleared away all useless buildings, worked hard to dig into the mountain, and built tunnels extending in all directions.

There are granaries, reservoirs, and comfortable rooms in the tunnel, which are enough to accommodate four thousand ninjas. Barriers have been built to reinforce the rocks, forming a ninja fortress where ninjutsu is powerless.

Iwa Ninja, who was good at legion ninjutsu, also flattened the top of Mount Akagi and built a grand legion ninjutsu formation, which could assemble more than six hundred ninjas at one time. With the help of the formation, they could use huge stone cannons that could hit six kilometers away.

The plain valley of this transportation thoroughfare was firmly controlled. Without bulldozing this solid fortress, the ninja army would not be able to advance towards Iwagakure Village.

It can even be said that Mount Akagi is the biggest source of confidence for Iwagakure Village to insist on not surrendering. With this unbroken fortress, they can fight with Konoha to obtain the best truce conditions.

The brutal siege battle began. Konoha ninjas attacked the top of the mountain in groups, and some ninjas who were good at earth escape moved against the rocks at the foot of the mountain.

The ninjas who attacked the mountain city felt an unprecedentedly difficult battle. On the entire two-thousand-meter climb, they were unable to fight back due to the insufficient range of their ninjutsu.

And the Iwa Ninja used the Earth Release Ninjutsu from a high position, and huge rocks fell down. Where is the range limit? The Konoha ninja could only grit their teeth and endure the Iwa nin's earth escape attack, praying that they could persevere to the top of the mountain.

After finally reaching the top of the mountain, all the Iwa ninjas were gone. Instead, within the hundreds of meters they had just climbed, there were Iwa ninjas showing their heads everywhere.

Some of them were responsible for blocking the follow-up Konoha ninjas, and some fought against the Konoha ninjas who climbed to the top of the mountain.

The Iwa Ninja was very familiar with Mount Akagi, and the tunnels served as cover and protection, so he naturally took advantage. The Konoha ninjas who were beaten without any protection were miserable. They could only find the entrance of the tunnel and dive in, fighting the Iwa Ninja in close combat. Close combat.

Who knew that it would be even worse for the Konoha ninjas when they entered the tunnel. They could still see the terrain and other things without any obstruction, and they could cooperate with each other and help each other.

After entering the tunnel, there was really a blank in terms of intelligence. Even if the Byakugan ninja saw the Iwa ninja through perspective and used the phone snail to command, they would not be able to take advantage, because the Byakugan could see people through perspective, but not the terrain.

"There is an Iwa Ninja sixteen meters in front of you with his back to you."

Hearing the call from the Byakugan Ninja, the Konoha Ninja sneaked over, but what he saw was a hard and thick rock wall. The enemy was facing away from him on the six-meter-thick rock wall. What was the use of this.

After a day of continuous fighting, except for hundreds of casualties, Konoha Village made no progress.

The mobile unit ninjas and staff ninjas who were watching the battle all had pale faces, even Aburame Tetsumaru was no exception.

[This, this tactic is so familiar. Why does it feel a bit like the one played by that invincible army? 】

Even if the tactics were similar, the thought of fighting an enemy like that army made Tetsumaru Aburame feel her knees spin. This was because her instinct was restrained and she had no choice.

A few days later, the Konoha ninja made great sacrifices and finally mapped some of the tunnels.

Jiraiya stood up. He led a part of the mobile troops as the vanguard, rushed up Mount Akagi, rushed into the tunnel of the fortress and suppressed the Iwa Ninja deep into the tunnel.

Then more than two thousand Konoha ninja followed Jiraiya's footsteps and poured into the tunnel, but they soon discovered that the road was blocked as they walked, so that it was already crowded and completely filled.

More Konoha ninjas can only worry on the top of the mountain, unable to help.

This situation of standing still was too dangerous, and the Konoha ninja could only withdraw as soon as possible and join the team of bystanders.

So the battle became more than three hundred ninjas led by Jiraiya, attacking thousands of Iwa ninjas who were familiar with the terrain. The outcome was obvious.

Late at night, Jiraiya broke out with only a dozen ninjas. Everyone was scarred, and Jiraiya himself was also seriously injured.

Jiraiya complained as soon as he came out. It turned out that the map drawn by the Konoha ninjas was only a shallow tunnel, which was relatively straight and not complicated.

But when Jiraiya entered the depths of the pit, the direction of the passage became confusing. There was no pattern up and down. While it extended in all directions, there were definitely more dead ends.

No, it's more likely that the Iwa ninja used the mechanism to temporarily block the dead ends and dead ends.

It's not easy to fight anyway.

…

More than ten days later, Konoha's attack still had no results.

The commander and staff had no choice but to hold a meeting.

At the beginning of the meeting, Orochimaru made the purpose of the meeting clear: "Retreat is impossible. Mount Akagi must be conquered or destroyed. The only thing we have to discuss in the meeting is how to do this."

"Everyone can speak freely, but please remember that we must not fail, otherwise the war will continue without end."

A forty-year-old jounin stood up and suggested: "How about we surround them until they have no water or food?"

"No." Chief of Staff Nara Shikaku retorted on behalf of the staff: "The Iwa ninja are well prepared. According to intelligence estimates, the food and water stored are enough for one year, maybe even three years."

"We ten thousand ninjas can't hold on for that long."

A jounin of the Shiranui family stood up and suggested: "How about we divide our forces, leaving enough troops to monitor, and most of the people will take a detour and go straight to Iwagakure Village or..."

This time, Orochimaru stood up and interrupted Shiranui Jonin. He said: "I said, Mount Akagi must be captured."

"Sorry, Orochimaru-sama, I was wrong."

Shiranui Jonin sat down hurriedly, his face flushed.

"How about we dig a brand new passage from the foot of the mountain, dig it deep enough, all the way to the center of the mountain, and then pile up detonating symbols to blow up Mount Akagi?"

Many ninjas' eyes lit up, this idea sounded feasible.

The ninja who had been digging the rock for more than ten days stood up and said that he could not do it: "It took fourteen days to dig more than 30 meters. It will become more and more difficult in the future. Give us a year and we will not be able to dig to the center."

"But didn't Iwa Ninja dig a lot of tunnels?"

"First of all, the rocks on the top of the mountain are not that hard due to weathering, and there are many cracks that can be used. The rocks at the foot of the mountain are not very weathered, and the cracks at the foot of the mountain are pressed tightly by their own huge weight. Those The gap is not only unexploitable, but also very dangerous.”

"Secondly, the construction of Mount Akagi took more than a thousand years, and the construction of Iwa Ninja took more than thirty years. We don't have enough time."

An Uchiha jounin stood up and said: "I would like to add that the detonating talisman is not powerful enough. No matter how much it is piled up, it will not affect the body of Mount Akagi."

Blow up such a big mountain?

Just kidding, even the richest woman in the ninja world twenty-four years later can't do it.

Unless it is in space, without the gravity protection of the ninja world, it is indeed possible to explode such a large mountain into pieces by detonating 600 billion detonating symbols in the center.

But within the ninja world, don't even think about it.

The topic shifted to how to use poison gas attacks, insect flooding and other strange methods.

These methods were relatively partial and it was difficult to reach a consensus. Therefore, they caused disputes among the jounin, and they gradually began to quarrel uncontrollably.

…

[The time has come, the opportunity to plant mushrooms is now. 】

Aburame Tetsumaru stood up. Seeing the giant insect user standing up, most of the jounin stopped their quarreling in a dignified manner and wanted to hear what this genius jounin could do.

"I have a new insect that is very, very powerful. It may not be able to defeat Akagi Mountain, but it can definitely destroy the Akagi Mountain Fortress in one fell swoop."

There was silence for a while, and then someone slowly started whispering.

"What are you talking about, Aburame Jounin, that a single bug can destroy the fortress?"

"Is he crazy? This fortress can withstand a tailed beast jade, but how can a bug be more powerful than a tailed beast?"

Some Jonin who knew his past experience better took a breath: "It can't really happen. If it is true, the Aburame family would be really powerful."

Orochimaru's face was filled with surprise. He stood up and asked, "Are you sure it's powerful enough to destroy the fortress?"

Aburame Tetsumaru nodded affirmatively: "I'm sure, as long as I can reach the entrance of the tunnel and enter twenty meters, I can guarantee the destruction of this fortress."

"Okay, let's use this method."
