From the distant battlefield, the sounds of Exploding Tags echoed one after another.
The war between Kumogakure and Konoha had begun again.
Renye and the others were recuperating in the camp and did not participate in this battle.
Danzo Shimura stood up, gazing at the smoke billowing in the distant sky. “The battle has erupted,” he said.
If he hadn't been injured, he would never have missed this opportunity to earn merits.
Unfortunately, the burly man's attack had caused him significant injury.
It even affected his strength, requiring good rest.
Going to the battlefield in such a state would undoubtedly be very dangerous.
Even if Danzo was eager to kill enemies for merits, he had to wait until his injuries healed.
At least he had to wait until his injuries wouldn't affect his fighting ability.
“I hope the casualties among our comrades aren't too high,” Hiruzen Sarutobi murmured softly.
He disliked the feeling of his comrades fighting on the battlefield while he hid in the back recuperating.
At this moment, he wished he could go to the battlefield to provide support, but seeing his body covered in bandages, he ultimately dismissed the idea.
With his current physical condition, going to the battlefield would only be a hindrance.
Rather than that, it would be better to rest well.
Renye saw through their thoughts and, worried they might act rashly and go to the battlefield with their injuries, couldn't help but remind them:
“Rest well and go to the battlefield after your injuries heal.”
After speaking, he stood up and returned to his tent to sleep.
Anyway, they couldn't help much now, so they might as well go back to sleep.
In the battle with the burly man, Renye's injuries were more than just simple wounds.
The intense battle had also caused him mental fatigue, requiring a good night's sleep for his mind to recover.
Moreover, sleep could help his body's injuries heal faster.
With his recovery ability, perhaps he would be fully recovered after a single night's sleep?
Once his injuries healed, he could then focus on how to kill Ginkaku and Kinkaku.
The others felt that Renye's words made sense and followed him back to their respective tents to rest.
Inside the tent were a few simple beds; in such an environment, having a bed was already good. Renye casually lay down on one of the beds and began to rest.
Listening to the sounds of battle from afar, he quickly fell into a deep sleep…
When Danzo Shimura and Utatane Koharu entered the tent, they found Renye already asleep.
The two of them each lay on a bed, closing their eyes to rest.
“Boom, boom, boom—”
The sounds of Exploding Tags and Ninjutsu clashes clearly entered their ears.
In such an environment, the two gradually drifted off to sleep.
As the battle continued, injured people were constantly sent back to the camp, and the Medical Ninja began to get busy.
The wails of their comrades spread throughout the entire camp.
Utatane Koharu couldn't sleep, so she left the tent to participate in treating the injured.
Renye naturally heard the commotion, but he selectively ignored the sounds and remained asleep.
Danzo was different; the noisy environment made it difficult for him to sleep.
He subconsciously looked at the sleeping Renye, his face filled with envy.
Renye's sleep quality was truly good; he could sleep even in such an environment.
………………
For the next few days, the group recuperated in the camp.
Renye's injuries had recovered by the third day, but he was not in a hurry to go to the battlefield to support, planning to wait until Danzo and the others recovered before going together.
The Gold and Silver Brothers were powerful, and Renye alone was not their match.
He needed his comrades' cooperation to possibly eliminate the two of them.
As time passed, their injuries finally recovered.
This was also the fifth day the battle had continued.
The Gold and Silver Brothers' performance on the battlefield was no weaker than the Raikage's Guard.
With their tacit cooperation, they made the Konoha Ninja suffer greatly.
The two brothers, possessing Nine-Tailed Chakra and Six Paths Tools, were invincible on the battlefield, causing heavy Konoha casualties in a short amount of time.
The casualties caused were even higher than those caused by the burly man!
Because Ginkaku and Kinkaku were cruel by nature, they fought even more ruthlessly.
The Konoha Ninja who faced them were tormented before they died.
This matter gave Nara Commander a severe headache, and he could only place his hopes on Renye and the others.
They had previously united to kill the Raikage's Guard, so they should also be able to deal with Ginkaku and Kinkaku.
Upon learning that their injuries had recovered, Nara Commander immediately found them.
Inside the Commander's tent.
“Everyone, I implore you with this matter!” Nara Commander said with a solemn expression: “I don't ask you to kill Ginkaku and Kinkaku, just to severely injure them will suffice!”
As long as the two of them couldn't participate in the battle for a short period, Konoha's pressure would be relieved…
He handed the intelligence he had collected from the battlefield to Renye and the others, which contained information on Ginkaku and Kinkaku's fighting style and common techniques.
“Ginkaku and Kinkaku's strength far exceeds that of ordinary Elite Jonin, almost reaching the Kage-level,” Hiruzen Sarutobi said, frowning deeply.
With their current strength, it would be almost impossible to defeat the two of them, let alone kill them.
Ginkaku and Kinkaku's strength had already reached the same level as Teacher Tobirama.
Fighting such enemies carried an extremely high risk!
But even so, facing Nara Commander's request, not a single person objected.
“They possess Nine-Tailed Chakra, so we cannot engage in a war of attrition,” Uchiha Kagami said. “They can sustain combat for a very long time.”
In terms of Chakra reserves, they were clearly inferior to Ginkaku and Kinkaku; it was uncertain who would outlast whom.
Danzo Shimura looked at the intelligence in his hand, his brows furrowed: “What's more troublesome are the Six Paths Treasures—the Crimson Rope, the Basho Fan, the Seven-Star Sword, the Sage of Six Paths Treasures - Red Gourd, and the Crimson Gourd!”
Possessing these powerful treasures made the two of them invincible on the battlefield.
The Konoha Ninja had no way to deal with them at all.
Due to not knowing the specific intelligence, they didn't even know how to respond…
Sometimes, they would be inexplicably sealed by the Sage of Six Paths Treasures - Red Gourd.
Moreover, they were not only facing Ginkaku and Kinkaku but also other Kumogakure Ninja, which put Konoha at a disadvantage in the war.
“I know how to deal with the Six Paths Tools…” Renye suddenly spoke.
Others might not know the intelligence of the Six Paths Tools, but he, the outsider, knew!
Hearing this, everyone instinctively looked at Renye, curiosity flashing in their eyes.
Facing the gazes cast upon him, Renye did not keep them in suspense.
“The Crimson Rope can make people utter a verbal command of a commonly used word. During battle, try to speak as little as possible, preferably not at all, to avoid uttering a recorded verbal command.”
Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened in shock. So the Crimson Rope's ability was to record others' verbal commands!
The high-ranking officials of Hidden Cloud Village would not tell others such important information.
Aside from the Village's high-ranking officials, only the wielders, Ginkaku and Kinkaku, knew the weakness…
“The Seven-Star Sword and the Sage of Six Paths Treasures - Red Gourd are used in conjunction. The Seven-Star Sword can sever verbal commands and record them on the sword. If a recorded verbal command or a similar pronunciation is uttered, one will be sealed by the Sage of Six Paths Treasures - Red Gourd.”
“I see!” Nara Commander suddenly realized.
He had wondered how Konoha Ninja inexplicably triggered the Sage of Six Paths Treasures - Red Gourd's seal; it turned out they had spoken words recorded by the Seven-Star Sword!
“As for the Crimson Gourd…”
