The Sheriff of Piltover's Sniping
The path Kikyo Mountain is almost entirely steep, with an average slope angle of over 75 degrees. Although ninjas can concentrate their Chakra and attach it to the soles of their feet to achieve vertical climbing, the influence of gravity still interferes with their movements and hinders their advance.
The northern section of the mountain path, where Shunren was located, had a slope of about sixty degrees, making it much easier to climb than other places. So, after finding this excellent starting point, a Sand Ninja unit was the first to rush up.
"We've found a breakthrough! Let's go... Hmph~"
"Bang!" A strange explosion rang out.
The Sand Ninja who shouted the words was sent flying backward as if struck by a tremendous force before he could finish speaking.
"Squad leader?" The Sand Ninja were shocked to see one of their leaders fall right away.
The squad leader lying on the ground had his forehead split open, and it seemed as if something sharp had pierced his brow. He died with his eyes wide open!
"Bang!" Another explosion.
"Thump~" Another Sand Ninja collapsed to the ground, just like the squad leader who fell before him. There was a black hole between his eyebrows, and his face even had a blank expression, which meant that he didn't even know how he died!
"Watch out! The enemy has some strange hidden weapons!" At this moment, a ninja with some eyesight finally noticed the trick among the Sand Ninja's ranks.
It was a sharp metal object, about the size of a finger, that flew out at an astonishing speed and pierced the ninja's skull with pinpoint accuracy!
Six hundred and fifty yards away on Konoha's position, Shunren was seen lying on a bunker created using Earth Release, holding a dark gold rifle and firing accurately at the enemy.
This is the weapon of Caitlyn, the Sheriff of Piltover, in League of Legends: a high-tech magic rifle manufactured in Piltover. It is equipped with three magic scopes of different sizes on the side of the gun, enabling precise shooting at targets at extremely long distances!
"Sensory Team!" Faced with unfamiliar attack methods, the Sand Ninja and others were extremely vigilant.
"No! Unable to pinpoint the enemy's exact location!"
Shunren had already used his Mind's Eye to activate his Sensory Technique, making it impossible for the enemy to locate him using their mental detection capabilities. Therefore, the Sand Ninja had no choice but to charge forward head-on. If they couldn't sense him, they would have to use their eyes and ears!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
With each gunshot, a Sand Ninja fell. This inexplicable and bizarre tactic severely damaged the morale of the Sand Ninja.
After suffering more than a dozen casualties, the Sand Ninja closed to within a hundred meters of Shunren.
This time, Shunren was targeting a Jonin the Sand Ninja. He wasn't sure if it was him, but based on his observations just now, he could tell that the Shunren was exceptionally skilled.
"Bang!"
Another bullet was fired.
The target was hit, a headshot. Unfortunately, the figure vanished as a wisp of white smoke. It was indeed Jonin the Sand Ninja, but this was just a Shadow Clone.
Although it was impossible to sense, at this distance, the location of the Shunren could be determined simply by the sound of gunfire.
"There he is!" Upon discovering Shunren's location, the enraged Sand Ninja formed Hand Seals, preparing to bombard Shunren with a barrage of Ninjutsu.
"Crack crack crack~" Shunren accelerated the rotation of his rifle and fired a bullet with extremely strong piercing power.
"Peacemaker!" Don't complain, that's just the name of this skill.
Despite its bizarre name, this piercing bullet was quite powerful, piercing through the chests of several Sand Ninja in one go!
"Damn it!" The Sand Ninja immediately retaliated, "Wind Release: Wind Killing Formation!"
The Wind Release Ninjutsu unleashed by dozens of Sand Ninja simultaneously created a gust of wind that instantly blew Shunren's bunker into the air.
"Whoosh~" Shunren rolled to the side first, avoiding the opponent's gale attack, and at the same time switched Caitlyn's rifle with Ashe's ice bow!
Draw the bow, and use your mind to gather the cold air and condense it into an arrowhead.
"Volley!"
Faced with the barrage of freezing arrows raining down from the sky, the Sand Ninja immediately took defensive measures.
"Earth Release · Earth Style Wall!"
The rising rock wall blocked Shunren's frozen arrows, and at the same time, four ninjas wielding iron fans emerged from the Sand Ninja.
"Wind Release: Kamaitachi Technique!"
The storm carried countless sharp air blades, which dispersed the Shunren's rapid-fire freezing shots.
Shunren narrowed his eyes, focusing his gaze on the iron fan in the other's hand, and muttered to himself, "That's a special Sand Ninja tool, the Three Star Fan. It can create a vacuum by colliding air currents, blowing away most ranged attacks!"
It seems it's time to stretch my muscles a bit.
Shunren put down the ice bow in his hand and placed his hand on the Heavy Black Iron Ruler on his back.
This posture is a signal that you are ready to attack.
With a whoosh, a large number of Konoha Ninja suddenly emerged from the position!
Lifting the Heavy Black Iron Ruler, Shunren leaped forward and launched the first attack on the Sand Ninja. At the same time, the Konoha Ninja behind him threw a large number of Shuriken to provide cover.
"Wind Release: Kamaitachi Technique!" Facing the Shuriken thrown by the Konoha Ninja, the Sand Ninja wielding the Three Star Fan deflected them all in one go.
However, at this moment, the powerful attack of Shunren also arrived!
"Konoha-Style Kenjutsu: May Rain Slash!"
Shunren descended from the sky, wielding an incredibly heavy Heavy Black Iron Ruler, and forcefully charged into the Sand Ninja's formation with a powerful chopping motion.
"Boom!" Like a giant stomping his foot, the earth trembled violently, centered on the spot where Shunren had landed.
Taking advantage of the Sand Ninja's unstable stance, Shunren wielded the Heavy Black Iron Ruler with both hands and swept it horizontally towards the Sand Ninja!
"Bang!" A Sand Ninja Chunin was sent flying. Although he immediately raised his Kunai block, using a kunai to block Shunren's Heavy Black Iron Ruler was clearly a Kunai attempt. The man coughed up blood in mid-air, his bones and internal organs shattered beyond recognition, and he collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
Shunto instantly and violently defeated a Chunin, leaving the Sand Ninja Shunren completely stunned.
"Impossible! This kid is so young, yet he has the strength of Jonin... Quick! Liaison team, go get backup!"
Shunren flipped his hand. After a long period of adaptation to carrying the Heavy Black Iron Ruler, his arm strength had reached an astonishing level. He wielded the huge Heavy Black Iron Ruler with ease, mixed with fierce energy. He didn't need any moves; his brute force alone was enough to overwhelm ninjas below the level of Chunin!
