The Battlefield Is Completely Suppressed; the Second Tsuchikage Is Defeated
The Shadow of This Era—
They are truly not to be underestimated!
If the First Kage of each ninja village built a house for everyone to live in, then the second Kage paved a path forward!
Whether it's the Dust Release of the Second Tsuchikage Mu, or the Sand Manipulation Technique and puppets of the Second Kazekage Shamon,
They have truly become the pillars of a village's future!
"The Sand Manipulation Technique, huh—"
Shirou Emiya glanced at the yellow sand on his ankles, then looked at the countless water bullets flying towards him, and stretched out his palm!
A Fire Wall tens of meters high appeared in front of him. No matter how many water bullets there were, they were all burned into mist by the Fire Wall at this moment. The Fire Wall suddenly transformed into a long fire dragon and rushed towards them!
"Hey, hey, hey, this isn't right!"
The Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki, witnessed this scene firsthand and was greatly shocked by the two terrifying Fire Release Ninjutsu unleashed by Shirou Emiya!
This power
Isn't that a bit too terrifying?
"There's no way to avoid it."
The Second Kazekage reluctantly gave up trying to control Shirou Emiya with his Sand Manipulation Technique. He flipped his hands repeatedly, and the ground suddenly turned into yellow sand!
All the yellow sand rose into the sky, turning into a flowing sand wall that firmly blocked the oncoming fire dragon, with explosions echoing one after another!
This is··
The crisp sound of yellow sand being burned into crystals by flames.
"Hey, hey, hey, bandaged man—"
The Second Mizukage breathed a sigh of relief. He looked up at the sky, wanting to call on the Second Tsuchikage to help continue the long-range attack.
"I know, Dust Release: Limit—"
The Second Tsuchikage Mu, closed his hands again.
However·
Shirou Emiya's technique is faster!
A bolt of lightning shot straight into the sky, striking the Second Tsuchikage's body!
Lightning Release is the fastest of all Ninjutsu because it naturally possesses the ability to see lightning in nature, making it so fast that it is difficult for the human body to dodge!
In addition, Shirou Emiya's unsealed technique left the Second Tsuchikage Mu time to react. His body was slightly turned to the side when he was struck by the lightning. In an instant, his body went into a state of paralysis, and he was about to fall to the ground in the blink of an eye!
"Not good--""
Even the Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki, was startled!
The Second Kazekage hurriedly manipulated strands of yellow sand to fall beneath his feet, and his body also stepped on the sand and flew up. Strands of sand grabbed at the Second Tsuchikage under his control, fearing that his teammate would fall to his death on the ground!
Water Release.
Suddenly, a dense rain of water began to fall from the sky.
The sand that the Second Kazekage wanted to control immediately became waterlogged and heavy, making it impossible for him to control the sand to save the Second Tsuchikage. He even had to fall back to the ground because of this.
"He won't have any accidents at this height—"
Shirou Emiya watched as the Second Tsuchikage Mu's body plummeted straight down from the sky, and calmly said, "I once treated a man who fell from a mountain; his internal organs were basically shattered, but I still managed to bring him back to life—"
"Don't say such scary things!"
The Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki, was quite frightened.
Fortunately·
The paralysis effect of Lightning Release only lasts for a short time!
Just as he was about to land, the Second Tsuchikage Mu used Earth Release: Super Light-Weight Rock Technique once again, making his body light and airy again. He used his hands to support himself on the ground and floated in the air once more.
However, the Second Tsuchikage Mu fly too high.
He was even afraid of facing the same crisis again, so he hastily used his best technique, invisibility.
"Dustless Bewildering Interstice".
The Second Tsuchikage's figure quietly disappeared from sight.
This is the Second Tsuchikage's unique invisibility technique, which can hide from people's sight and even make his traces almost completely disappear. It can also evade Chakra sensing techniques!
This technique
It's real invisibility!
No one can find the location of the Second Tsuchikage anymore.
At least in the upcoming battle, he can calmly hide on the sidelines and wait for an opportunity to attack Shirou Emiya.
"Using this trick again?"
The Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki somewhat dissatisfied, but he also knew that under Shirou Emiya's Lightning Release, the Second Tsuchikage was far too easy to become a target!
"You take the lead and draw his attention, I'll cover your attack so he can prepare to launch a fatal blow."
The Second Kazekage, Shamon, immediately devised a strategy, even revealing the prototype of his future Hidden Sand Ninja team. "The three of them can cooperate with each other—"
"Clear."
The Second Mizukage nodded somewhat helplessly.
Because the Second Kazekage, Shamon, lacked offensive capabilities, his only reliance on sand manipulation techniques was limited by Shirou Emiya's weather techniques.
It's truly unimaginable.
It can rain with just one sentence.
However, the Second Kazekage's words revealed the truth behind the rain in the sky: he was born in the water-scarce Land of Wind.
The formation of rainy climates has been studied for a long time.
"This is the airflow caused by the terrifying high temperature of that Fire Style, which carried water vapor from the ground into the air. This rain technique also makes use of the weather."
"But-"
"This kind of weather should be very advantageous for Water Release ninjas."
The Second Kazekage's gaze fell upon the Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki, which was why he had Gengetsu Hozuki lead the charge in the upcoming battle.
But·
They quickly ran out of ideas about priorities!
Because in this weather condition, Shirou Emiya clearly more at ease than the Second Mizukage. The Water Release techniques he released did not require any Hand Seals, and the infinite Chakra of his Impure World Reincarnation body also meant that he did not have to worry about Chakra consumption!
Before the two finished speaking...
One after another, streams of water arrived!
The Second Kazekage could only manipulate the heavy sand to barely condense a sand wall, providing them with a safe area to cast spells!
"Then let me do it!"
"This kind of misty, drizzly weather is perfect for clams—"
The Second Mizukage suddenly bit his finger, quickly formed hand Hand Seals, and slammed his palm heavily on the ground. "At least give us a safe area first! Ninja Art: Summoning Technique!"
The next moment!
A giant clam has appeared!
This clam has a hard shell, which slowly opens as it lands, revealing a pair of tentacles that release layers of mist!
"I'll have the toad use a mist Genjutsu to obscure his vision."
The Second Mizukage, along with the Second Tsuchikage, hid beside the giant toad, using the Summoning Beast's hard shell to resist the Water Dragon Bullet falling from the sky. They explained their battle plan, "As long as he can't see us, the Water Dragon Bullet won't fall..."
"Wind Release".
A sudden hurricane swept across the sky!
The gust of wind instantly dispersed all the fog!
The mist that the giant toad that had been summoned to create visual Genjutsu was completely blown away before it could actually be released!
"Earth Release."
Suddenly, soil gushed out from the ground!
The mud quickly coated the giant clam's body!
No, it's not the soil rising up!
Instead, the ground is rapidly collapsing!
If Gengetsu Hozuki Summoning Beast were to stay any longer, they would only be suffocated to death by the Earth Release's mud!
!
The giant clam turned into smoke and vanished!
"Ah?
The Second Mizukage could only watch in a daze as all of this unfolded.
This was a technique he always used to decide the outcome of battles, and it could even allow him to fight against a hundred enemies. Yet, before he could even cast it, it was violently broken by Shirou Emiya!
"Careful!
The Second Kazekage frowned, hastily releasing a Chakra Threads with his fingers, lifting the Second Mizukage's body and throwing him aside!
As soon as the Second Mizukage's body left his original position, a Water Dragon Bullet Technique rained down on him!
Outside the battlefield.
The group of ninjas were dumbfounded.
Although the battle between these Kage and Shirou Emiya was merely a series of unleashing Ninjutsu, they could all see that Shirou Emiya was handling the situation with ease.
This medical ninja simply used Ninjutsu to launch attacks continuously, while the Kage of the three villages had to use various means to block him.
It looks like
Shirou Emiya was having a really easy time.
Because he doesn't need any gaps in the battle to use Ninjutsu, nor does he need to look for opportunities; he can release any technique he wants directly.
This strange ability
It will undoubtedly cause anyone a huge headache!
If this were a real battlefield, and Emiya Tsuchihara's desire to attack was strong enough, he could quickly bury everyone on the battlefield with endless Ninjutsu. Right now, he is constantly attacking with the Water Dragon Bullet Technique.
Most importantly
Shirou Emiya's techniques are very powerful!
Often, a single strike can severely injure a Shadow!
"It looks like"
Ōnoki, a disciple of the Tsuchikage, stood in the center of the crowd, his brows furrowed, and said in a deep voice, "The outcome of this battle depends on Master Mu's attack..."
As long as the Second Tsuchikage Mu launch an attack, everything will be fine, and the three Kage will no longer be in a passive and defensive situation!
"The Mizukage can do it too!"
The ninjas from Hidden Mist Village couldn't help but speak up in rebuttal.
"The Lord Kazekage is the strongest!"
The ninjas of Hidden Sand Village believed that their Second Kazekage, Shamon, performed the best in the battle and was even the most hardworking on the entire battlefield!
The sky is getting increasingly gloomy.
The raindrops continued to fall gradually, even becoming more concentrated than before, and soon they were about to turn into a downpour!
In the heavy rain, the rainwater turned into several water dragons that swam in the air!
These water dragons kept forming and falling, smashing into the Second Mizukage and the Second Kazekage, who were both in a sorry state and had to dodge them!
"My spells will be very vulnerable—"
The Second Kazekage's expression was rather grim. He was unable to use the Sand Manipulation Technique in this kind of environment, and even using it for defense was difficult!
This kind of weather has always been what the Land of Wind dreams of.
However, their real life is always in the desert, so all their spells are more suited to fighting in the desert and are extremely unsuitable for rainy weather.
"Water Release: Water Formation Wall!"
The Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki, hastily Hand Seals, releasing a wall of water to block the water dragon falling from the sky once more. He frowned, seemingly puzzled, and wondered, "Is it going to be rainy today?"
Let's not even talk about the main attack now.
Even their defense has become incredibly difficult!
Under the relentless onslaught of Shirou Emiya's Ninjutsu, the Second Mizukage and the Second Kazekage could only rely on each other for support in their defense.
The Second Kazekage, Shamon, shook his head, then his expression suddenly changed as he looked at the figure holding up a finger in the pouring rain. "No, that gentleman has been continuously releasing Water Release techniques; he's constantly increasing the moisture in the air!"
"It can't just be to restrict you, can it?"
The Second Mizukage glanced at the sky with a hint of surprise.
It shouldn't be that bad, right?
However, the Second Mizukage suddenly realized the problem. He hurriedly looked at a blank area in the sky that was being washed by the heavy rain. That was where the Second Tsuchikage Mu hiding place!
Even though the Second Tsuchikage could conceal himself, his technique was ultimately just an invisibility jutsu, not a spatial technique. His body was still a physical entity in reality, and under the wash of the rain, the Second Tsuchikage immediately became visible!
"He's looking for the location of the bandaged man!"
The Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki, immediately realized the problem!
"This approach is far too extravagant."
The Second Kazekage suddenly realized why Emiya Tsuchihara kept using the Water Dragon Bullet Technique, and even kept using it to move through the air!
"The attacks we encountered were just incidental—"
The Second Kazekage's expression turned extremely grim. He looked in the direction of Shirou Emiya: "The enemy has been constantly releasing jutsu seals to facilitate an attack on the Tsuchikage at any time!"
Shirou Emiya raised his eyes.
"Found it."
Shirou Emiya's voice softened, as if he could see through the Second Tsuchikage's hidden predicament. "The rain falling on you will exert gravity on your body, so your speed is constantly decreasing, and now you have no way to dodge it—"
Shirou Emiya quickly raised his hand!
A bolt of purple lightning shot from his hand like a tree branch, piercing the sky and striking the silhouette in an instant, causing it to fall down!
However··
The outline disappeared after it fell!
It's a clone!
A clone from the Second Tsuchikage Mu!
No, it's not a clone, it's more accurately Split Body!
The Second Tsuchikage Mu's signature technique is to divide his Chakra equally among his clones, which in a sense are also his original body!
Whoosh!
A flash of light appeared in the rain!
The blade of light came so fast, striking from behind Shirou Emiya, who had been hiding behind him the whole time!
The figure of the Second Tsuchikage Mu, quietly appeared behind Shirou Emiya. After entering the invisibility of the Dustless Bewildering Interstice, he split himself into two entities!
The strength of these Split Body is very evenly distributed!
In this state, the Second Tsuchikage Mu to use Dust Release, but he found another battle plan.
Hidden in the shadows behind Shirou Emiya, he allowed Shirou Emiya to continuously crush his two teammates with Ninjutsu!
But·
That's not enough insurance!
The Second Tsuchikage concealed his Split Body within the rain of Shirou Emiya's vision, waiting for Emiya to discover the Split Body and launch an attack before launching a sneak attack from Shirou Emiya!
The real battle plan is always to launch a surprise attack at the most opportune moment!
This is also very much in line with Wu's fighting style. Dust Release has never been his trump card. Creating opportunities for surprise attacks in battle is what he has always been best at. Both Dustless Bewildering Interstice and the Split Body serve this purpose!
While Dust Release is powerful, it is completely outmatched by Shirou Emiya's unskilled Ninjutsu. A single Lightning Release is enough to render him unable to use Dust Release in battle!
"I already knew that."
The Second Tsuchikage Mu brandished his sword, his gaze hardening. "Even if I use Dust Release, I can't possibly be faster than Lord Shirou in casting his technique!"
"Well done, bandaged man"
The Second Mizukage watched the Second Tsuchikage's sneak attack with exaggerated gestures!
This guy has been hiding until now, and even launched a sneak attack at this moment. He is truly worthy of the pressure they have been under from Shirou Emiya all along!
"We should have won—"
The Second Kazekage finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Because Shirou Emiya had just released a Lightning Release, his body didn't have time to react.
He will definitely be slashed through the body by the Second Tsuchikage!
However, Shinobu's sneak attack was dodged by Shirou Emiya!
As if he had eyes in the back of his head, the medical ninja suddenly dodged Wu's sneak attack.
He then snatched the Ninja Blade from Mu's hand and punched Mu in the stomach, easily knocking the Second Tsuchikage to his knees!
"What on earth is that guy doing—"
The Second Mizukage covered his forehead, looking somewhat troubled.
This is so embarrassing!
I'm ashamed to be called "Shadow" alongside someone like that.
"This isn't the Tsuchikage's fault—"
The Second Kazekage's eyes twitched at the sight, and he vaguely guessed something. "The Tsuchikage's invisibility ability didn't escape Lord Shirou's senses. I can roughly guess the Tsuchikage's battle plan, and he almost succeeded—"
"But-"
"If he has always been within Lord Shirou's perception."
A battle plan where every move is observed looks rather ugly; it's utterly unacceptable.
"How is that possible—"
The Second Tsuchikage, somewhat incredulous, clutched his lower abdomen and slowly knelt down.
"I was just wondering—"
Shirou Emiya was even more incredulous than the Second Tsuchikage, staring at him in astonishment. "How can there be two of you on the battlefield? I can even sense that both of you are the same person—"
The Second Tsuchikage Mu wolf or fox spirits.
"You lost—"
Shirou Emiya quickly helped him up, using his Ninja Blade to prop himself up, and even began to treat him. "You should be fine. I controlled the force of my punch just now perfectly, just enough to incapacitate you—"
"Stop talking, really stop talking," the Second Tsuchikage Mu, somewhat ashamed, unable to lift his head.
Why is this medical ninja's sensory ability so strong, making his battle plan seem so embarrassing, and even causing him to lose the battle in such an embarrassing way?
"You are very capable."
Shirou Emiya softly praised the Second Tsuchikage before him, "If you had attacked me with that Dust Release technique just now, I probably would have lost—."
[S-Rank Mission: Defeat Second Tsuchikage Mu of Hidden Stone Village, and obtain the Kekkei Dust Release Kekkei Tōta.]
"The Split Body cannot use Dust Release."
The Second Tsuchikage wore a helpless expression. He glanced at his two teammates in the distance, feeling a sense of exasperation. "If they could hold off Lord Shirou, perhaps I would still have a chance to use this technique..."
