Desert Emperor Character Card

Desert Emperor Character Card!

It could be said that this was the only and most precious card Rasa had drawn after painstakingly mining gold and spending money during this period.

It had two skills attached to it, and both were extremely practical!

The corners of Rasa's mouth lifted slightly as he looked at the hundreds of Desert Soldiers he had summoned across the desert.

Just as I thought!

He wasn't the Desert Emperor Azir who, under normal circumstances, could only summon two soldiers—or four even after using his ultimate.

This was the ninja world!

Vast amounts of Chakra represented infinite possibilities.

And with these skills...

He could summon hundreds of soldiers in this desert!

Perhaps he couldn't compare with the Chakra of the God of Shinobi, but after all the attribute boosts during this period, his Chakra was already considerable.

At least...

He believed he no longer needed to risk his life to solo the One-Tail Shukaku. As for... summoning nine thousand nine hundred and ninety hands, then using just one hand to grab the Nine-Tails by the neck... that would still be somewhat difficult!

Rasa didn't waste any time. He dodged the Fourth Raikage's attack, and while everyone else was still recovering from their shock at the sudden appearance of the puppets...

He had already moved into action!

"Damn it!"

The Fourth Raikage looked at the figure that had suddenly vanished before him and came back to his senses, repeatedly turning his head to look around.

"This speed?!"

He couldn't react in time at all. He had only seen a pale-yellow flash, like drifting sand, sweep past before the figure disappeared completely.

This was the first time he had seen a ninjutsu faster than his Lightning Release!

He kept scanning his surroundings for the vanished figure. When he saw one of the Desert Soldiers collapse, he immediately roared, "Watch your defenses!"

However, the moment his voice fell...

Magnet Release: Sand Gold Burial!

It was already too late!

A cold voice rang out across the desert.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The desert beneath the Kumogakure Ninja near Rasa's position began to flow wildly, forming a desert vortex. It continuously dragged in the Kumogakure Ninja standing on it and, in an instant... swallowed them whole.

"What a terrifying amount of Chakra!"

Many Ninja stared in shock, their eyes wide with disbelief.

Especially the Sand Ninja...

If Kazekage has this kind of strength, why did he keep it hidden? He should have used it long ago!

If he had, how could we Sand Ninja have fallen this far?

However... most Ninja also understood that with such terrifying power, combined with that mysterious speed... this had to be a forbidden technique!

A forbidden technique that couldn't be used recklessly!

And just then...

Another Sand Soldier shattered.

Fourth Raikage A's expression changed at once. While shouting for the Kumogakure Ninja over there to retreat and defend themselves, he rapidly lit up with a blue glow and charged over.

However...

It was already too late!

Magnet Release: Sand Gold Burial!

Once again, the terrifying desert maw swallowed the Kumogakure Ninja in that area.

But... Ninja could never be judged by common sense.

Many Kumogakure Ninja quickly reacted to the Raikage's warning. They simulated the most suitable response in their minds, then rapidly used their own ninjutsu and narrowly escaped disaster!

Rasa also understood... the same technique could only be used once against Ninja. Of course... there were exceptions, such as super-powerful ninjutsu like Shinra Tensei, Planetary Devastation, and Tengai Shinsei...

Even if you knew how to deal with them, you probably wouldn't be able to react in time. In the end, you could only be swept away in a single wave.

So now... it was a contest of speed!

Rasa ignored what was happening here and rapidly used Quicksand Transportation again!

In this desert... he could feel his strength increasing considerably. With his Chakra growing stronger as well... what else was there to say? He would use his ultimate, Magnet Release: Sand Gold Burial, every time!

I refuse to believe I can't catch a few of them this way!

After all... the entire area was filled with Kumogakure Ninja.

On the other side... A also knew that continuing to fight this way definitely wouldn't work. Sooner or later, that man would wear him down to death.

His expression shifted uncertainly as he stared at the strange soldiers on the desert. He thought... every time that Rasa appeared somewhere, one soldier shattered. In that case, if...

He seemed to have thought of something. He immediately turned around and shouted at all the Kumogakure Ninja across the desert, "Destroy them! Destroy all those puppet soldiers!"

The moment his voice fell...

The other Kumogakure Ninja also realized what was happening. They quickly used their strongest offensive ninjutsu and attacked.

But... how could Rasa simply stand by and watch the Desert Soldiers be destroyed? He took a deep breath, saw that he had only a little more than a minute left, hurriedly drank another Blue Potion he had drawn, and then...

Sand Soldiers, Arise!!

More than a hundred soldiers appeared again.

Unfortunately... he didn't know what was wrong, but he discovered that he couldn't control these soldiers at all. Otherwise... with the soldiers alone, he believed the military strength of Sunagakure would no longer be a concern.

Of course, this wasn't the time to think about that.

To save time, he quickly appeared in another location.

Magnet Release: Sand Gold Burial!

Behind him... a blue flash had been following him the entire time.

The Fourth Raikage... was relentlessly pursuing him~

Oh, no. Perhaps he shouldn't be called the Fourth Raikage, but rather the Raikage Candidate. Although... the Third Raikage had already retired and yielded the position to a worthy successor, and the Fourth Raikage had also received the approval of the villagers within Kumogakure, who called him the Fourth Raikage, the Daimyo of their Land of Lightning had yet to officially recognize him.

As for why everyone called him the Fourth Raikage...

Rough man!

Once he had decided that was what he was, then that was what he was. Why would he care about so many details?!

As Rasa repeatedly used the same ninjutsu, the Kumogakure side also quickly devised a way to counter it. Thus, Rasa's plan... was instantly reduced in effectiveness.

The Kumogakure side's losses... also became smaller and smaller.

Three minutes later...

Looking at the Kumogakure Ninja scattered across the battlefield and A, whose face had turned livid, Rasa stopped on the desert and felt the cheers of the Sand Ninja around him.

Although the Kumogakure side had suffered heavy losses, the Sand Ninja had also endured their frenzied attacks and suffered many casualties, so the Kumogakure Ninja still outnumbered them.

But...

At least things were no longer as desperate as they had been at the beginning.

Rasa panted and covered his chest, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly as he looked at the Raikage standing opposite him and his brother, the future's famous rap Ninja of the ninja world—Killer B. He said calmly, "Sunagakure has won!"

"The battle has begun, Sand Ninja Rasa keeps running, takes out a few Kumogakure Ninja, and starts acting cocky. How laughable." Killer B began rapping in an irritating, bouncy manner, constantly changing his hand positions as he tried to humiliate Rasa. "Yet I'm still outnumbering you, the Kumogakure side still has strength to spare. Shining with charisma, Eight-Tails Killer B is me! Yeah! Ah!"

The moment his voice fell...

A terrifying amount of Chakra suddenly covered Killer B's body.

Now it was Rasa's turn for his expression to stiffen. Looking at Killer B, whose skin had reddened slightly, he wondered whether he could already borrow the Tailed Beast's Chakra.

But...

Why release a nuclear weapon for no reason?

Rasa really had something to say now!

"MMP!"

Ever since Bunbuku had grown old, Sunagakure's Tailed Beast had been kept inside Black Cauldron and placed under strict Ninja guard.

They had brought the One-Tail here as a secret weapon this time, but if it was released now... there was no need to say what would happen. The Eight-Tails and One-Tail would certainly join forces to beat up Sunagakure.

As for the reasons behind it...

They had to start with the tails behind them, as well as the One-Tail's hatred of Sunagakure.

So...

Rasa looked at the two brothers before him, who wanted to join forces, sighed, and murmured, "Looks like I have to use the next card."
