Sniper 2

At the Sand Shinobi outpost, the Sand Shinobi shouted about an enemy attack while urgently looking toward the source of the sound, trying to find the enemy.

Hearing the shouts outside, many Sand Shinobi resting in the wooden houses quickly rushed out with weapons in hand, ready to meet the enemy. But there was not a trace of any enemy outside. Even several Sensory Ninja could not find the hidden attacker, only judging the enemy's general direction from the gunshots.

The Sand Shinobi in the outpost had merely heard strange noises and people shouting about an enemy attack, so they followed suit and rushed out shouting. Many of them did not even know what had happened, much less that several people in the outpost had already died, including an Elite Jonin.

Only a few seconds later, before the Sand Shinobi could make their next move—while many had only just rushed out of the wooden houses and were still standing there like targets, not understanding the situation—the high-speed bullets entered their outpost again a second before the sound. The metal warheads easily slammed into their bodies and tore through flesh and blood.

Within three seconds, another five adjacent Sand Shinobi had their bodies pierced and their heads blown apart.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Only after the Sand Shinobi fell did the five consecutive gunshots reach their outpost again. Five Sand Shinobi fell one after another within three seconds.

"Enemy attack!" The Sand Shinobi who had witnessed their comrades die howled in grief. The surrounding ninja hurried toward their fallen companions, while some Sand Shinobi seized the chance to search for the enemy attacking from the shadows.

However, despite seeing their comrades die with their own eyes, they still could not find the hidden attacker. They only knew that the enemy was hiding on the high mountain to the right of the valley, but even the Sensory Ninja could not locate the exact position.

"Teacher!" A heart-rending cry rang through the Sand Shinobi outpost. The young ninja looked at his teacher, whose head had exploded, and was overwhelmed with grief.

"Little brother!" The older ninja held his younger brother, who had lost half his head, and wept bitterly.

"Sakura-chan! Hold on! You have to hold on!"

Seven or eight Sand Shinobi surrounded a fallen female Sand Shinobi. Her husband knelt over her, looking at the bloody hole in her chest that continued to pour blood. He hurriedly pressed his hands over her wound to stop the bleeding while anxiously calling her name.

"Medical Ninja! Hurry and save her!" Nearby, seven or eight Sand Shinobi anxiously called for a Medical Ninja as they gathered around the injured female Sand Shinobi. She was the only one of the five Sand Shinobi still alive.

The Medical Ninja quickly ran over and immediately used Medical Ninjutsu to cover the wound on the female Sand Shinobi's chest. Unfortunately, with the power of a Barrett bullet, a hit to the torso was practically a death sentence. The Medical Ninja could see that as well; he was merely doing all he could and leaving the rest to fate.

The fallen female Sand Shinobi only gasped for a while before her breath ceased.

"No!" Seeing his wife die, the female Sand Shinobi's husband threw back his head and roared in grief and fury.

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!" At that moment, a bullet suddenly arrived. It instantly pierced the chest of the person in front of him, then passed through his open, roaring mouth and out the back of his head before finally shooting through the thigh of a Sand Shinobi behind him.

Blood sprayed everywhere, splattering across the faces and bodies of six or seven nearby Sand Shinobi. The sudden development left all of them stunned for a moment.

"Pfft! Pfft!" However, in less than a second, another bullet came flying over. It blew apart the head of the Medical Ninja who had just stood up, then pierced through the chest of another Sand Shinobi.

"Bang!" The gunshot finally arrived, followed immediately by three more bullets that struck four more Sand Shinobi nearby.

"The enemy is attacking from the mountain on the right! Don't stand out in the open—take cover first!"

"Find cover!"

Seeing what had happened here, although the other Sand Shinobi had yet to find the enemy's exact location, some had already realized they could not remain in the open. They hurriedly shouted warnings to their companions while taking shelter behind the wooden houses in the outpost or using Earth Release Ninjutsu to shield themselves.

The sound only arrived more than a second after the attack. The enemy is attacking from beyond the Sensory Ninja's detection range, at least five hundred meters away. What a bizarre attack! It's actually faster than sound! Behind one of the wooden houses in the Sand Shinobi outpost, an Elite Jonin rapidly analyzed the situation, his expression incomparably grim. He shouted, "Everyone! The enemy is attacking from several hundred meters away on the mountain to the right! Take cover and do not leave your shelter lightly!"

"Lord Luo Fei, Lord Qian Ce is dead! Of his disciples, only Maki survived!" In the distance, behind another wooden house, a Sand Shinobi shouted to the commanding Sand Shinobi. Maki stood beside him, while before the wooden house lay the corpses of Sand Shinobi Elite Jonin Qian Ce, his two disciples, and a Sand Shinobi Chunin.

(Kunai could hit Chunin and even Jonin. Bullets were at least ten times faster than kunai and far less noticeable; ordinary ninja simply could not evade them.)

"Young Han, why won't you listen to us? Why did you act on your own..." Looking at Yueguang Han, who had suddenly opened fire, Yueguang Xingye felt a terrible headache and was deeply frustrated at his failure to live up to expectations.

"Yueguang Han, you are too impulsive. As a ninja, you must obey orders absolutely! This is unauthorized action!" The other Jonin all glared at Yueguang Han through gritted teeth. One Jonin even spoke up to angrily rebuke him. Yueguang Han's actions would undoubtedly expose them. If not for Yueguang Han's special status and unique abilities, they might already have taken action to subdue him for acting on his own.

No one believed Yueguang Han's plan was viable, nor did anyone believe he could kill Sand Shinobi from such a distance. They did not even think Yueguang Han could attack the Sand Shinobi outpost from here.

Even Yueguang Xingye did not believe Yueguang Han could do it. Although they had tested Yueguang Han's Bloodline Limit before, Yueguang Xingye had never tested it at such a distance—not even half that distance. (This was because they knew almost nothing about guns.)

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Unfortunately, Yueguang Han ignored them completely. After materializing more bullets, he fired another five shots in rapid succession. Only a few seconds had passed in total.

"Hey, are you even listening?"

"Are you trying to get us all killed?"

Seeing Yueguang Han fire again and make another series of loud noises, not only the Jonin but even the Chunin could no longer suppress their anger. They shouted at him, some even starting to curse, while several rolled up their sleeves and prepared to act. Yueguang Han was gambling with the lives of more than a hundred people on an unworkable plan.

Even if this mission might very well depend on Yueguang Han's Bloodline Limit to succeed, they still had to teach Yueguang Han a lesson first and let him know what it meant to obey orders. Otherwise, he really would get them all killed.

"Everyone, calm down first. Our position has already been exposed, and the Sand Shinobi will find us soon. Our most urgent priority is to withdraw from here, not pursue responsibility. We can discuss countermeasures afterward. I will properly discipline this boy later and guarantee that this will not happen again." Seeing that, aside from his own clan's ninja, everyone else was righteously indignant and looked ready to deal with Yueguang Han, Yueguang Xingye quickly said.

"Clan Head Xingye, you must properly discipline that boy from your clan. He will get everyone killed—not just us, but your people as well." Hearing Yueguang Xingye speak, everyone knew that relocation was indeed the most urgent matter, so they temporarily suppressed their anger. One Jonin spoke viciously.

"I'm sorry. After we withdraw, I will certainly discipline him properly. I absolutely will not let him make such a mistake again!" Hearing this, Yueguang Xingye hurriedly apologized and assured everyone.

"You know absolutely nothing about my abilities, much less sniper tactics. If you think my plan is unworkable, then follow your own plan. I will follow mine." Hearing the angry voices behind him and Yueguang Xingye defending him, Yueguang Han spoke in an icy, detached tone. His emotions did not fluctuate in the slightest under his comrades' scolding and accusations. His electronically synthesized voice remained cold.

After saying that, Yueguang Han fired another five shots in rapid succession. The Sand Shinobi in the outpost were gathered around the dead—this was a rare opportunity.

"You!" Seeing Yueguang Han fire again, the Jonin and Chunin, who were already burning with anger, could no longer restrain themselves.

Even Yueguang Xingye did not know how to speak for Yueguang Han anymore. Still, he hurried to Yueguang Han's side, reached out to press down the Barrett that Yueguang Han's hand had transformed into, and angrily shouted, "Enough! You should seriously reflect on yourself!"

"I don't think I need to reflect. Look at the results." Yueguang Han gestured for Yueguang Xingye to observe the Sand Shinobi outpost in the valley through the Barrett's sniper scope.

Seeing Yueguang Han persist so stubbornly, Yueguang Xingye could only look through the Barrett's sniper scope toward the Sand Shinobi outpost in the valley under Yueguang Han's guidance, half believing and half doubting.

"You actually did it! You really killed Sand Shinobi!" After only one glance, Yueguang Xingye's entire expression froze, and he muttered in shock. The Sand Shinobi outpost below was already in some chaos. The Sand Shinobi were searching everywhere for cover or using Earth Style to block this direction. As Yueguang Han moved the Barrett, Yueguang Xingye could even see more than a dozen Sand Shinobi corpses on the ground through the Barrett's sniper scope.

"What?" Hearing Yueguang Xingye's shocked words, the furious Konoha Ninja all fell silent and looked at him. Their hearts shook—this was a distance of seven hundred meters!

One Jonin quickly took out binoculars and looked toward the Sand Shinobi outpost. He said in disbelief, "He actually did it."

"Just because you can't do it doesn't mean I can't. Do you still think my plan is unworkable?" Yueguang Han asked as he looked at the stunned Yueguang Xingye.

"Han has already killed more than ten Sand Shinobi!" Hearing Wang Han's words, Yueguang Xingye snapped out of his shock and hurriedly told the others.

"That is indeed the case!" The Jonin with the binoculars nodded, deeply shaken, and handed the binoculars to another Jonin.

This left all the Konoha Ninja even more shocked. It was not only because Yueguang Han had killed Sand Shinobi from such a great distance, but also because he had killed more than ten Sand Shinobi in the half minute they had spent arguing.
