"Ah, that withdrawal thing…" Mei nodded.

"Exactly…"

Suddenly…

"Neji-sama! Neji-sama!"

"What is it?" The commander asked.

"Enemy reinforcements from the east!" The messenger stated.

Hyuga raised an eyebrow. "Eh? Is he an idiot?! He knew I heard that plan!"

"So, what our actions are?" Mei asked.

"What do you think? Wipe them out!" Neji commanded. "They will surely pass between these two mountains. Surround them from both sides and annihilate!"

"Yes, sir!"

Palace's rooftop…

Shikamaru's lips slowly curled into a smirk.

"He bought it." The Konoha commander stated.

"Is this a trap?" Temari asked.

"Exactly." Nara spoke. "Do you really think I can use already compromised plan?! Not fucking likely! And knowing Neji, he will send thrice, or at least twice more men to intercept our forces… which is what I'm absolutely hoping for."

"Why?"

"You'll see…" Shikamaru muttered looking in the distance. "They're almost there… now!" He brought a radio to his mouth. "Choji! Initiate 'Necessary sacrifice' stage!"

"Roger!" Voice from the radio stated.

"Necessary sacrifice?" Temari asked. "I don't like the sound of this…"

"Me too…" Shikamaru replied. "But it is necessary… just like it sounds."

And just as he said that, enormous Choji appeared behind one of the mountains.

"THIS IS FOR MY FATHER!" The one armed teen shouted… crushing the mountain with his only hand.

"Watch out!" Shinobi from both sides screamed.

"It's gonna collapse on our heads!"

"Run!"

"NOOOOOOOOOO!"

Neji's camp…

"Motherfucker…" Wide eyed Neji whispered. "He… He really wasted his own men… I guess I underestimated him…"

"I'm surprised as well." Mei stated. "I never expected someone from Konoha to do such a thing. It looks like something Naruto-kun would do…"

"Hahaha!" Neji laughed. "Mei, Naruto is from Konoha."

Woman's jaw fell. "Damn, how could I forget that…? And since when I'm Mei?!"

"Since last night I guess…"

She shook her head. "Don't let it get into your head. I'm still with Naruto…"

"Hmhmhm… Yeah, I got that." Neji stated. "Doesn't stop me from calling you Mei though…"

The Mizukage smirked. "Fair enough, Neji-kun!"

Hyuga sighed. "As nice as that sounds, we really should end this battle…"

Mei raised an eyebrow. "You're going there yourself?"

"Of course not!" The commander stated. "Do you think only Nara had a trump card up his sleeve?!" He took out a radio. "Is everything ready?"

"Yes." Voice from the radio stated.

Neji sighed again. "I really hate to do this, but… Commence operation 'True art'…"
