The two masked men gradually slowed down. To their shock, they discovered something terrifying: Ye Lan's speed had steadily surpassed theirs.
He was completely different from when they had crushed him at the start!
It felt as though he had become another person, and they found it utterly unbelievable.
But they were no ordinary opponents. The two exchanged a glance, then retreated a hundred meters in perfect tacit understanding. They shouted at the same time and unleashed their strongest Lightning Release attacks on Ye Lan simultaneously.
Yet Ye Lan merely sneered at the sight. They could never have imagined that his mastery far surpassed theirs. Their Ninjutsu was nothing to him; not only could he effortlessly suppress them, he could even replicate their Ninjutsu.
Before someone as absurdly overpowered as Ye Lan, what did their Ninjutsu amount to?
Ye Lan rapidly formed hand seals. In an instant, hundreds of mud pillars erupted beneath the two masked men's feet, trapping them firmly in the center. Their Ninjutsu all struck the stone pillars, but with their strength alone, they had no way to break every pillar. Seizing the chance, Ye Lan instantly erected a large number of Earth Flow Walls around them once more.
Once they were completely surrounded, a smile slowly curved Ye Lan's lips. Next came his personal performance.
Fire Release, Fire Dragon Flame Bullet.
Lightning Release, Lightning Ball Burst.
Water Release, Great Waterfall Technique.
Wind Release, Wind Cutter.
Earth Release, Multiple Earth Flow Walls!
All kinds of Ninjutsu emerged one after another as though they consumed no Chakra at all. Ye Lan effortlessly threw out dozens of high-level Ninjutsu.
Ye Lan felt a surge of delight. He had secretly learned all these Ninjutsu, and now that he had used them, the results were exceptionally good!
Though they were both Anbu elites, how could they possibly withstand so many Ninjutsu at once—attacks that would normally require dozens of people to cast together?
Before these Ninjutsu, they were utterly fragile. The two men instantly turned pale, feeling that they had been driven into a dead end.
The two shut their eyes tightly, preparing to receive the barrage of Ninjutsu. Before such attacks, they were like lone boats on the sea, utterly incapable of resistance, able only to let the overwhelming tide of Ninjutsu crash down upon them.
Just as the two fell into despair, a black shadow silently appeared beside them. In the next moment, they had been taken away from the area.
Ye Lan had noticed the black shadow the moment it appeared. He could not help but be secretly startled. Under his control, these Ninjutsu would not truly kill the two men, but they would still inflict a certain degree of injury. In any case, they definitely would not be able to fully recover anytime soon. At most, they would lose their combat ability.
Even so, Ye Lan knew full well the power of his Ninjutsu. He was almost certain that only someone comparable to the Hokage could possibly escape unharmed beneath such attacks, let alone bring two people out of their range at the same time. He was secretly shocked, but he also gained some clarity. Based on his own judgment, he was almost certain who this person was.
After being rescued, the two masked men looked at the person beside them, then actually dropped to their knees together, their faces filled with reverence.
