"Teacher Kakashi. There are two people inside. One should be a rogue ninja from Iwagakure—probably Deidara, the Tsuchikage's disciple," Sparkle said. "He specializes in clay bombs, but Lightning Style should be able to extinguish their explosions."
Sparkle then turned to Grandma Chiyo. "The other one is a puppeteer—probably Sasori of the Red Sands."
"...Mm, I'll handle him." Grandma Chiyo had already made up her mind.
"Then I'm starting—Naruto!"
Sparkle opened the seal.
"—Yaaah!!!!"
Naruto charged forward and smashed the rock apart with one punch.
Then Kakashi, Naruto, and Grandma Chiyo rushed inside together.
"Seal—!"
From outside, Sparkle used an ice seal to lock the gate shut again.
At the same time, the ground around Sparkle began to bulge, and several figures emerged.
"Mirror Attacker Technique... I see. So this was the technique planted within the second layer of traps. Clones like one's own mirror image, with exactly the same nature and power... only that person could have set up this technique."
Anyone who tore open the barrier would be attacked by their own clone.
The clones possessed exactly the same strength as the originals.
"The clones' abilities and stamina don't change. If it were some mediocre fool, they'd be worn to death..."
[Holy shit, this ninjutsu is insane]
[Terrifying]
[Is it mainly aimed at whoever tears open the talismans?]
[Oh my god, doesn't that mean Sparkle has to fight five alone?]
[Holy shit, how are you supposed to fight this?]
[There has to be some weakness. It can't be that overpowered]
This move really was difficult to deal with.
Sparkle went straight to the river's surface.
The other clones all came over as well.
These clones looked exactly like Sparkle did now.
"Let's test it first—"
Sparkle drew her twin blades.
The five clones opposite her also drew their blades
