Gathering the three together, Seii wasted no ti and raised his hand to perform the "Shadow Clone Technique" to create shadow clones to take them back.
Just then, a mory suddenly surfaced in his mind, it was the process of Sakaze being sent to the cave space.
Obviously, this was the mory of the previous shadow clone.
Through the mory, Seii already knew that the other party had successfully completed the task.
This made him secretly relieved.
Previously, he was worried that the shadow clone would encounter so trouble on the way, fearing that he would lose Sakaze, the large "chakra battery".
Now it seed that he was overthinking it, the shadow clone perfectly completed his task.
'In that case, let's continue!'
With a thought, Seii once again perford the "Shadow Clone Technique".
Fortunately, the limit of the lv1 "Shadow Clone Technique" could maintain three shadow clones, otherwise, it would be really difficult for him to send back the three Sunagakure ninja in front of him at once.
Poof~ Poof~
Two chakra smoke clouds dispersed, and two shadow clones that looked exactly like Seii appeared on the field.
The reason why he didn't create three was that there was still a shadow clone guarding the cave space, so he could only create two here.
Fortunately, two shadow clones were enough.
Without Seii's instructions, the two shadow clones stepped forward, carried the three people on the ground, nodded at him, and then left without saying a word.
Watching the two leave, Seii felt the chakra in his body, there were less than two thousand points left, which made him feel very insecure.
Originally, he planned to rush to the E12 area as soon as possible to see if he could fish in troubled waters and capture a few more Sunagakure ninja.
Now...
Forget it!
However, he couldn't do nothing.
He had told Kamijo Hiroshi that he was going to the E12 area for support. If he didn't arrive, it might cause unnecessary suspicion afterward.
Now he had many secrets, it was better not to arouse suspicion if he could.
After thinking for a while, Seii finally decided to continue heading to the E12 area.
However, he could slow down appropriately.
In this way, when he arrived, if the shadow clone had already finished, he could dispel the technique and let his chakra recover, then continue with the previous plan.
If there was no ti, then he could only paddle.
Anyway, Seii wouldn't joke about his own life.
With the decision made, Seii didn't delay any longer and imdiately rushed towards the E12 area.
...
Half an hour later.
Seii arrived at the E12 area.
At this ti, the two shadow clones he had sent out had completed their tasks, and his chakra had once again recovered to more than five thousand points.
According to the original plan, he should fish in troubled waters and capture more Sunagakure ninja to expand the "chakra battery" group.
However, his plan ended before it even began.
It wasn't that there were no Sunagakure ninja on the field.
On the contrary, the number of Sunagakure ninja here far exceeded his expectations.
But precisely because of this, he didn't dare to act rashly.
No other reason, the intensity of Sunagakure's attack this ti clearly exceeded his plan.
Now, even though the Konoha ninja from the surrounding areas had already co to support, the Sunagakure ninja still had no intention of retreating, and the battle on the field even had a tendency to intensify.
Under such circumstances, how could Seii dare to fish in troubled waters?
Even as soon as he showed up, he was imdiately targeted.
Helplessly, he could only join the battle.
With his sharp swordsmanship and a pair of two-tomoe Sharingan, Seii killed nine Sunagakure ninja in one hour, greatly relieving the pressure on the Konoha ninja in the nearby area.
But precisely because of this, he was targeted by a Sunagakure Jonin, whose strength was even higher than Sakaze's.
Seii was in an average state and didn't want to fight head-on with the opponent, so he simply started to conserve his energy, no longer attacking, only defending and dodging.
Although the Jonin on the opposite side was powerful, he couldn't do anything to him for a while and could only keep probing.
Just like that, ti passed by.
In the blink of an eye, more than half an hour passed.
The sky gradually darkened, and it was almost ti for the shift change. Seii felt that if he continued to delay, these Sunagakure ninja wouldn't need to leave.
You know, the shift change ant the arrival of fresh troops.
And according to Seii's previous two experiences, each shift change would replace about half of the squads.
With so many fresh troops, Seii didn't think the Sunagakure ninja on the field could withstand it, so they would most likely retreat before that.
As for the possibility that the opponent didn't know their shift change ti, he directly ruled it out.
With their offensive like this, how could they easily launch it without conducting a detailed investigation of their side?
What's more, this shift change ti was not a secret, with so many people every ti, it was too easy to find out.
Sure enough, not long after, sharp whistles suddenly sounded in multiple places on the field.
And hearing these whistles, the Sunagakure ninja on the field imdiately abandoned their opponents and gathered to the nearby Jonin at the fastest speed.
Then, under the leadership of a group of Sunagakure Jonin, they directly charged outwards.
In a short while, they broke through the temporary defense line organized by Konoha and rushed out of the encirclent.
Several leaders on the Konoha side obviously didn't want to let the opponent leave so easily and quickly issued the order to pursue.
So, the Konoha ninja who could still move started chasing the Sunagakure ninja again.
Under such circumstances, so Sunagakure ninja inevitably fell behind.
Taking this opportunity, Seii once again captured two Sunagakure Chunin alive and let his shadow clones take them away. The whole process was extrely careful, without revealing any flaws.
...
Ti flew by, and an hour later.
The pursuit was temporarily suspended, and all the Konoha ninja returned to their respective stations.
And the Konoha battalion that ca to relieve them, after arriving an hour earlier, didn't stay long and hurriedly headed further west.
That was the front line of resistance against Sunagakure.
And after they left, Seii received an order that this and the next "vacation" were all canceled.
For the next half month, everyone had to continue the tasks of the past week, strengthen patrols, strictly prevent Sunagakure's infiltration, and ensure the safety of the base camp.
As for the understaffed squads, the base camp would make appropriate additions later.
In addition, Seii also learned the latest situation on the front line from the squad leader, Tashiro Ukyo.
Just as he had guessed, two strongholds on the front line were indeed breached by Sunagakure. Now other strongholds were dispatching personnel to fight for those two strongholds.
And the fresh troops that had just left without staying were going to the front line for support.
However, Seii estimated that these people might not be enough.
Sunagakure wouldn't easily give up the strongholds they had finally captured.
So, in the next few days, the base camp should continue to send more people.
'No wonder the order said that the base camp would make appropriate additions to the personnel of each squad, it turned out that there was a shortage of manpower...'
From this, it could be seen that Konoha's reserve forces were actually sowhat insufficient.
If this continued, shrinking the defense line was almost inevitable.
'Just not sure how long the front line can hold on, this stronghold being breached is probably just the beginning, later on, this kind of thing is estimated to beco the norm.'
In other words, the second line in the future would no longer be a simple second line, because they would also encounter a large number of enemies at any ti.
After pondering for a long ti, Seii shook his head.
He thought to himself: "Why think so much, as long as I maintain the rapid growth of my strength, then no matter what danger I encounter, I can easily deal with it."
With this in mind, Seii didn't waste any more ti. After greeting the squad on duty at night, he returned to his residence and started cultivating on his own.
