To sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight!!!

"Jiejie~~ Is this the Land of Fire? It's a nice place, no wonder everyone wants a piece of it."
Inside the Land of Fire, seven eerie figures darted through the forest. All seven of them wore Kirigakure headbands on their foreheads and carried strange weapons on their backs. If any experienced ninja were to come across them, they would be greatly startled.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist!!!
Under the Third Mizukage's command, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist infiltrated the Land of Fire to cut off Konoha's supply lines.
"Hehe~ This is truly a good place."
Among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Jūzō Biwa, holder of the Kubikiribōchō, grinned sinisterly, his laughter grating and sending shivers down one's spine. Coupled with his extremely ugly appearance and peculiar attire, one could tell at a glance that this guy was not good news.
How many decent people would wrap their entire body in bandages, including their neck and ears?
Such attire was rare in the entire ninja world. Mū (Second Tsuchikage) was an exception, as he was severely injured in an accident and had no choice but to wrap himself in bandages; otherwise, he would probably scare people to death.
Combined with his brutal and bloodthirsty personality, it could be said that Jūzō Biwa would never leave a good name wherever he went.
It could be said that none of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist looked particularly normal.
"I didn't expect our mission to be to cut off Konoha's supply lines."
Fuguki Suikazan, the wielder of Samehada, laughed loudly, his plump face jiggling with his laughter.
"I seem to smell blood."
Jinpachi Munashi sniffed the air, revealing a savage smile.
Jinpachi Munashi's words made the others burst into laughter, and the group quickly moved through the forest.
"By the way, I heard rumors that a super genius named Uchiha Ronglin appeared in Konoha, and he achieved outstanding battle merits in the war against Sunagakure in the Land of Wind. I wonder if I can fight him. What I crave most is the blood of geniuses."
"Perhaps, if Konoha can receive the news early."
"Then, we need to speed up our pace."
No one in Konoha expected that the notorious Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist of Kirigakure had infiltrated their rear, preparing to cut off their supply lines. When the news reached them, everyone was shocked.
"I knew it, these cowards from Kirigakure were up to no good!!!"
Inside the command center, Tsunade slammed her hand on the table. A palm print immediately appeared on the solid wood table. This was with Tsunade holding back her strength; otherwise, the table would have shattered into splinters.
Several supply teams had disappeared, and Konoha immediately dispatched personnel to investigate. The shocking result they received was that the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist from Kirigakure had infiltrated the rear to wreak havoc, all to cut off Konoha's supply lines.
"Slaughter these bastards!!!"
"Kill them!!!"
The people in the command center were filled with righteous indignation. Ronglin, sitting beside Tsunade, raised an eyebrow. He hadn't expected the war with the Land of Water to start a few years early, which also advanced the time the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist entered Konoha.
They were truly ruthless, wanting to sever Konoha's supply lines with a single stroke. Without supplies, the frontline fighters would fall into disarray.
This would give Kirigakure a great opportunity for a full-scale attack. These bastards were truly patient!
They had been cowering in the mist all day, constantly launching sneak attacks. Now they were changing their tactics, sending the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist to cause widespread destruction in the rear. And indeed, they directly struck Konoha's lifeline.
Three-front warfare was extremely difficult. If the supplies were cut off, then this war would have no need for a frontal confrontation.
Everyone was shouting fiercely, but why don't you go and slaughter them yourselves!
Ronglin looked at the red-faced, thick-necked guys in the command center, sneered, and rarely spoke, letting them curse all they wanted. Tsunade and Shikaku Nara would make the arrangements.
"We must find these seven people!! We cannot let them continue to wreak havoc in the rear!!!"
Each of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist possessed the strength of an elite Jonin, coupled with their bizarre weapons. When the seven of them united, their power was incredibly formidable. Ordinary teams encountering them were simply no match.
In just a few days, a large number of people had died at their hands, most of whom were Genin responsible for transporting supplies.
With only basic strength, the Genin responsible for transporting supplies were facing the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, which was nothing short of a one-sided slaughter. There was no difference between it and chopping vegetables; escaping was a luxury when encountering them.
"...Yes!!! We must stop this immediately."
"These Kirigakure bastards are truly insidious!! Despicable and shameless!!!"
This time, even Fugaku Uchiha felt indignant.
A team of seven, all elite Jonin, infiltrating the rear and massacring Genin responsible for transporting supplies—was there anything more infuriating than this? It was rare for Fugaku Uchiha not to oppose Hiashi Hyūga.
Both of them raised their hands in agreement with Tsunade's words, urging them to quickly organize manpower to take down this group, otherwise, if it continued, it would only lead to more serious consequences.
"Everyone, what kind of people do you think we should send?"
Tsunade raised her hand, signaling everyone to calm down, and asked with a serious expression.
Weaklings certainly wouldn't do. The seven individuals were acting together, and sending people who were too weak would just be sending them to their deaths. Even dispatching a team of equal strength might not be enough to take down these seven.
It would be best to have a strong individual lead a team back to the rear to take down these seven in one fell swoop. Otherwise, Konoha's supply lines would not be able to withstand such torment.
However, there were only two suitable people: one was Tsunade herself, and the other...
Bastard!!
Tsunade wanted nothing more than to tear him apart. Ronglin had once again fallen into his habit of drawing circles, just as he seemed to do in every meeting, a typical example of shirking responsibility.
How could a Kage-level expert like you just muddle through in a patrol squad?!
But every time Tsunade got angry, Ronglin could always make her speechless. Tsunade endured it, but at this critical moment, it was obvious that he was needed, and he was still drawing circles!
