Chapter 98 : Konoha Army Suffered Heavy Casualties
Red Island stood as the dividing line between the Land of Water and the Land of Fire.
Surrounded by the sea, the left side belonged to the Land of Fire, while the right stretched into the dominion of the Land of Water.
It was here that Aa had planned to lead Konoha's forces into battle. But what he didn't expect was that Konoha's army would advance directly without hesitation.
As for the location of Red Island, the Mist had intentionally leaked it. Since Konoha believed this to be a decisive battle, then Mist was more than willing to turn it into one.
"Jinpachi Munashi, Kushimaru Kuriarare, Ameyuri Ringo, Jinin Akebino, Fuguki Suikazan, Raiga Kurosuki, and Mangetsu Hozuki." Ao's gaze was sharp as he looked at the infamous Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
"This army of Konoha shinobi, numbering more than 10,000, will be left to you."
"Hmph, don't worry, Ao." Fuguki Suikazan, wielder of Samehada, grinned. "I'll make sure the Konoha dogs never set foot back home."
The blade in his grasp seemed to writhe in anticipation.
In addition to the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, over 10,000 Mist shinobi lay in wait on Red Island, prepared for the slaughter to come.
They had set the perfect trap. Now all they had to do was wait.
In the Konoha camp, Yamanaka Inoichi wiped a sheen of sweat from his brow.
