Chapter 71:

Everyone focused their gazes on Akira's body, all looking at Akira and waiting for him to speak.

Akira shrugged speechlessly: "I still don't know the situation on the battlefield at all, yet you want me to make a plan, I am not all knowing."

This sentence embarrassed Jiraiya for being too hasty. He coughed, quickly took out the map and unfolded the map. The current detailed topographic map of the country of rain and the current distribution of the ninja troops from various countries all clearly displayed in front of Akira.

Akira narrowed his eyes and observed carefully.

Orochimaru introduced from the side: "The current situation is like this. Because of your raid on Suna village, this lead to Suna temporarily withdrawing from the frontline and wait for another opportunity. Next, the number of Ame ninja is very little, which are relatively nothing to worry about. Thus the strongest in the battlefield became Iwa and us Konoha."

"Ok" Akira nodded, Suna and Ame temporarily are not making any moves, of course, this does not mean that they have no motive or ideas, if they have a chance, they will make use of the opportunity ans attack.

Akira looked at the map and as expected, the battlefields of Iwa and Konoha had been marked on the map and the battlefield is located at the center of the current rain country.

Among them, Iwa's vanguard had fight against Orochinaru, Jiraiya and Tsunade. It is also in this encounter that the trio faced difficulty and the two sides remain in stalemate, with neither of them having any advantage.

"Iwa..." Akira lowered his head to think for a while, he carefully looked at the map and pointed to a place while asking: "This is where the Iwa troops are station right?"

"Yes, that's right." Orochimaru nodded: "Iwa also dispatched thousands of troops as the vanguard this time and they are all very strong."

"For a troop consisting of thousands of people, they will need a big amount of food supplies, don't you know where their food supplies are located?" Akira asked lightly. A troop consisting of thousands of people in the war certainly need lots of food to sustain them as food pills will not be able to sustain them for the entire war. Most of the ninjas will have to rely on food to supplement their physical strength, so this is a great consumption and it is also crucial factor in the war.

Using the most basic strategy, if the ninjas ran out of food, how could they continue and fight?

"Do you want to start by destroying their food and supplies?" Tsunade shook her head slightly: "We have thought about it as well, but Iwa stored their food very well. It is placed in a very low ground in their camp and we couldn't destroy it.This is especially so in the country of rain, where it is rainy and fire attacks don't work well...

In war, destroying the opponent's food supplies is indeed the most effective way. Fire attacks are generally the easiest way to destroy the food supplies, but the rain environment in the Country of Rain make fire ninjutsu ineffective.

"Who say I have to use fire to attack?" Akira shrugged.

"Then are there any other ways you can do it?" Tsunade's eyes glared in disbelief.

Akira smiled mysteriously: "What if there is?"

"Why don't we bet, as long as you can come up with a reliable way, if you win, I will promise you one thing and vice versa!" Tsunade looked at Akira and couldn't help but said aloud.

Tsunade really think that Akira couldn't destroy Iwa's food supplies and said immediately. Tsunade likes to gamble and this is a well-known fact. So she make A bet with Akira.

Akira squinted his eyes, he didn't expect Tsunade to make a bet, but he believed in himself: "Yes."

Akira knows that although Tsunade likes to gamble, she is known to be unlucky and loses almost every bet.

The legendary sucker! This is Tsunade's nickname in the gambling circle.

"Say it quickly, do you have any good plan?" Jiraiya couldn't wait anymore. Minato, Orochimaru and Dan also looked at Akira, as they also become more and more curious.

What plan do Akira have to deal with Iwa Ninja?

"As you said just now, Iwa stored all their food in the lowest ground for easier guarding and the location of the food supplies are here, right?" Akira pointed to the map at Iwa's camp.

Yes." Everyone nodded.

"Come and take a look, Ame weather are rainy and there are also many rivers in Ame, while Iwa's camp is located at the downstream river." Akira pointed to the map and said faintly: "If I were to go to the upper reaches of the river, I can then block the river with dirt and then the trap river flow will accumulate. When the current accumulated to a certain level, the water will then be released suddenly, creating a flood and flood Ame camp and their supplies..."

Akira briefly described and explained his plan...

Iwa can only blame themselves for being too cautious and place their food supplies at the lowest ground in the camp for easy guarding. As a result, loopholes appeared instead.

Hearing Akira explaining this, the few people in the house became quiet, the air seemed to be drawn away and everyone was quiet.

"Akira, your plan..." Jiraiya also opened his mouth slightly, revealing an admiring but weird look.

Orochimaru also glanced at Akira with a complicated expression, whereas Dan was completely speechless.

Minato said excitedly: "Akira, this plan is great. If it really succeeds, the flood will then drown the Iwa camp and supplies. We can then destroy Iwa's food supplies with no effort as well as take the advantage of the situation to kill them by surprise! "

Jiraiya mouth twitched and nodded silently. The rest of the people nodded, Minato was right, but there was a strange atmosphere spreading in the air.

Tsunade looked at Akira with helplessness and a wry smile: "It seems like I lost the bet. Your strategy is really doable. Once it succeeds, it will change the outcome of the battlefield."

"Sometimes I really can't figure it out, how Akira have such ingenious ideas? In a short period of time to come up with such a strategy?" Jiraiya also said with emotion. He originally just asked casually, but it turned out that Akira can actually come up with such a good plan.

"This is simply a deadly trap and it's very effective." Orochimaru said lightly, also very much approved. Orochimaru's opinion on Akira changed again, as he look at him with deep appreciation, but it also contained a hint of other meaning.

"Since everyone feels that there is no problem, this plan will then be implemented. We must make all preparations, after all, Iwa are proficient in earth ninjutsu and can restrain the flow of water, so we need to be fully prepared." Akira said lightly.

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up and their hearts became excited.

The idea of flooding Iwa Ninja Camp is really exciting just by thinking about it!
