Danzo burst out of the command center, gripping a sword tightly as he surveyed the battlefield. Wounded shinobi lay sprawled on the ground, writhing in pain. His forehead veins bulged with anger.
He had considered various scenarios, but he hadn't accounted for the time lag. This oversight had allowed the Sand Village to breach the camp and unleash their puppet brigade, resulting in significant casualties.
"Danzo."
Chiyo, controlling her puppets with ease, led her forces into the camp, with Ebizō close behind.
"Chiyo, did you really think this would be enough to defeat Konoha?"
"Of course not," Chiyo replied, a wide grin spreading across her face as she took in Danzo's rage.
"My mission is simply to make you feel pain, to inflict as much damage as possible. Does it hurt, Danzo?" she taunted. "Did you ever imagine that I would dare to attack your precious camp?"
The angrier Danzo became, the more delighted Chiyo was. It meant Konoha had suffered significant losses.
This surprise attack had been a resounding success for the Sand Village. Even if they couldn't hold the camp or wipe out all the shinobi, they had already won.
As the initial chaos began to subside, Konoha's forces started to regroup and mount an effective counterattack. The Sand Village's advance began to stall.
If the battle continued, Konoha would eventually drive the Sand Village out. But would it even matter at that point?
The Sand Village had already achieved its goal: they had successfully launched a surprise attack on Konoha's camp, breached its defenses, and inflicted heavy casualties-delivering a significant blow to Konoha's pride.
For Chiyo, the mission was already more than successful.
Witch!
Danzo seethed as he stared at Chiyo, who grinned mockingly at him. He wanted nothing more than to tear off his composed mask and hurl insults at her. But he couldn't. He had to maintain his image.
The villagers would never accept a foul-mouthed leader as their Hokage.
"Counterattack!" Danzo barked, too frustrated to engage in a war of words. He ordered the Konoha shinobi to mount a full-scale counteroffensive.
"Heh."
Knowing that Danzo was likely fuming, Chiyo was even more pleased. She shouted, "Puppet Brigade, target the medical unit!"
If they could overrun the medical unit and eliminate a large number of Konoha's medical ninjas, Chiyo's mission would be even more of a triumph.
Killing a group of shinobi was something Konoha could endure, but losing a significant
number of medical ninjas would be a crippling blow-one that might just make the Third Hokage cough up blood in anger.
"No! Stop them!"
Losing a group of regular shinobi wouldn't bother Danzo too much. But the medical ninjas were another matter entirely-every single one of them was invaluable, especially during wartime.
Seeing Chiyo's forces advancing on the medical unit, Danzo could no longer remain composed.
"Puppet Brigade, take the medical unit!" Chiyo ordered, her voice filled with glee.
The more Danzo cared about something, the more Chiyo was determined to destroy it. Taking down the medical unit would be the perfect time to withdraw.
