"Run!"
Under the protective shield, Kizō roared and turned to run towards the open hole behind him.
Just as everyone else was still wondering what was going on, a voice came from above.
Fire Style: Great Flame Annihilation!
Hagoromo one hand pointing outwards, Chakra in her throat and then spat out a fireball resembling a falling meteor towards the sea.
Instantly, the sea surface was illuminated as if a light had been turned on.
On the sea, the Sand Shinobi on the ship and the running Kizō stared in shock at the fireball that resembled a meteorite.
"Run!"
"Jump into the sea! Quickly!"
The next instant, countless roars erupted.
All the Sand Shinobi ran desperately toward the edge of the deck; now that they were on the sea, the ship couldn't move quickly.
The only option is to jump into the sea; perhaps then I can escape this calamity.
A look of panic flashed across Kizō's face as he stared at the cave entrance before him. Almost there! They were almost there!
As he moved, the passageway that had been connecting to the Sand Shinobi ship quickly retracted.
Just as he was about to reach the cave entrance, Kizō leaped up and pounced towards it.
Boom--
The fireball emitted by Hagoromo exploded instantly upon contact with the water and oil sprinkled by Sansan.
In an instant, the already enormous fireball spread and enveloped the entire sea surface, the flames exploding instantly with the help of water and oil.
Bang--
Just as Kizō, he was struck in the back by the explosion, and the force of the blow sent him tumbling into the submarine.
The Sea Serpent Group members, who were carrying supplies inside the submarine, saw their leader fall in.
He rushed over and helped Kizō up, wiping away the remaining flames behind him. He hadn't even had a chance to ask what had happened.
The protective shield Kizō was wearing had fallen off, and the flames from the explosion had scorched his face, making it look terrifying. He screamed madly:
"Walk!"
Upon hearing this, the subordinates waiting at the control panel immediately turned the dial in their hands, and the entire submarine was about to dive into the seawater below.
"They're trying to escape!"
The Byakugan, who had been watching from a distance Chunin the submarine make a move and quickly spoke up.
Having prepared in advance, Choza released the signal flare in his hand. The specially made green signal flare was particularly eye-catching in the sea of fire.
The Konoha Ninja surrounding the sea of fire quickly formed hand seals and slammed them down onto the sea surface:
Water Release: Water Release: Wild Water Waves!
The Water Release: Wild Water Wave unleashed by hundreds of ninjas directly churned the seawater in this area.
The entire sea surface instantly began to surge violently.
The submarine, which hadn't even had a chance to submerge, was instantly tossed about by the waves.
Just as Kizō stood up inside the submarine, he was suddenly thrown aside by the tumbling.
The members of the Sea Serpent Group inside the submarine lost their footing and slammed into their surroundings.
What's going on?!
After finally regaining his footing, Kizō asked the subordinate who was controlling the roulette wheel.
"Boss! Someone is using Ninjutsu to stir up the sea, I can't control it!"
The Sea Serpent Group member, who had just taken control of the roulette wheel, responded with a pained expression.
"Baka! Those Sand Shinobi idiots must have been targeted! I'll take control!"
As Kizō spoke, he quickly formed hand seals, and the unique turbine at the stern of the submarine began to spin.
Veins bulged on Kizō's face as he felt the ripples of the seawater outside the submarine, and he cursed inwardly.
How many people actually came?!
Why can't I detect it at all?
He then increased his Chakra output again, and the submarine, which had been bobbing up and down like duckweed on the water, began to stabilize as the turbine at the stern frantically churned the seawater.
Boom--
Hagoromo, watching from the sky, was surprised to see that the submarine had actually stabilized.
"This guy—he's not simple!"
"Sansan, let's go down!"
Hagoromo gently patted Sansan's head and pointed towards the submarine below.
"Knew!"
Upon hearing this, the clouds beneath Sansan's feet churned, and she flew towards the submarine's location.
Seeing that only the stern of the submarine remained, Hagoromo frowned.
It's too late!
Without hesitation, Hagoromo stepped directly onto Sansan's forehead and landed on the sea.
Using the speed of free fall, Hagoromo concentrated Chakra at his feet and then lifted high into the air.
"Heavenly Foot of Pain!"
He stomped on the remaining stern of the submarine, crushing it completely, and then slammed it into the sea!
In that instant, time seemed to freeze.
An eerie, absolute silence enveloped the area.
Inside the submarine, Kizō and the members of the Sea Serpent Group felt their feet lighten, and then they were lifted high into the air.
On the sea, Choza stared in disbelief at the submarine that had been kicked by Hagoromo and thrown high into the water.
He then snapped out of his daze, gathering Chakra in his throat, and shouted frantically, amplifying his voice, "Everyone! Retreat!"
The Konoha Ninjas, who were maintaining their Ninjutsu on the sea, were taken aback when they heard Choza's voice.
They immediately turned around and desperately fled across the seawater.
On the sea surface, a hemispherical vacuum zone with a diameter of about a hundred meters appeared directly in the area where Hagoromo's foot struck.
A visible circular shockwave skimmed along the sea surface, spreading outwards at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to react to.
Wherever it passed, the waves were instantly smoothed out, and even the remaining flames due to the water and oil were extinguished.
The larger Sand Shinobi ships, some distance away, were violently pushed aside like leaves in a storm, their hulls groaning under the strain.
It immediately disintegrated, turning into countless pieces of broken wood.
"Hagoromo, hurry up and come up here!"
Sansan's voice came through, carrying a hint of panic.
If we don't leave now, the tsunami caused by Yu Yi's Hagoromo will hit us.
"They're here!"
With Hagoromo Chakra output increased on her feet, Yu Yi leaped directly onto Sansan's forehead.
Upon seeing Hagoromo arrive, Sansan didn't hesitate and quickly flew into the sky.
Boom--!
As Hagoromo left, the huge vacuum sea surface that had just been created was filled back and flooded by the surrounding seawater.
The energy of the backfilled seawater and the shock wave converged and superimposed.
At the initial point of impact, a wall of water, more than ten meters high, surged outwards in a ring shape in all directions.
"It seems... a bit too much."
Hagoromo, standing atop Sansan's forehead, couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth; the destructive power of this attack was somewhat exaggerated.
Fortunately, the Konoha ninjas were already far away, and Choza reacted quickly enough to order a retreat.
"Ah! Help!"
Hearing the cries for help, Hagoromo turned her head and saw that the submarine whose stern had just been crushed had fallen into the sea.
Pushed by the tsunami, several members of the Sea Serpent Group could be vaguely seen desperately clinging to the gap in the breach.
Immediately afterwards, it was swept away by the raging torrent of the tsunami and disappeared in an instant.
"Sansan, sense the location of the Chakra of that person who was standing on the submarine."
Hagoromo spoke to Sansan at her feet.
"No problem!"
