"Fire!"
"Use ultra-long-range ninjutsu!"
"Everyone capable of flight, take to the air! We absolutely cannot let the airships enter the village!"
Asuma shouted commands.
With Jiraiya absent, he was the commander.
The two Advisor Elders held high status, but on a battlefield like this, they did not have much say.
Though the airships looked close to the ground, they were actually several hundred meters in the air. Ordinary ninjutsu did not have such an attack range.
Thrown ninja tools were even less likely to reach them, so the kunai plus Exploding Tag tactic, which dealt the greatest damage, naturally could not be used.
"Wind Release Chakra Mode!"
Asuma gave a low shout. Wrapped in raging winds, he rose into the air, preparing to shoot down the airships.
"Super Size Amplification Technique!"
Akimichi Choza leaped beneath the Wooden Wall and directly transformed into a giant more than ten meters tall, spreading open his palm.
Throwing!
He was preparing to throw people onto the airships.
It was an extremely simple and crude tactic, but it was very effective.
With a ninja's physical abilities, boosted by Chakra, they were practically minor superhumans. Being thrown several hundred meters into the air was not a problem at all.
If they chose the right timing and opportunity during their fall, landing safely was easy enough.
More importantly, Akimichi Choza could throw people more than once. He could continuously hurl people up there.
"Ha!"
Several jonin were all thrown out by the enormous palm.
Others also took to the air one after another. Some used ninjutsu, while others used Summoning Beasts. Each displayed their own methods as they charged toward the airships.
Although none of them knew what the airships were targeting, they knew they absolutely could not let them succeed.
On the airship!
"Foolish mortals!"
