Sniper 3

"I didn't expect the Sand Shinobi to not even dare to come out of their wooden houses," Mitarashi Shika said with emotion, observing the Sand Shinobi stronghold below with binoculars from a mountain on the right side of the valley.

"If it were me, I wouldn't come out easily either! It's no different from seeking death," Hayate Watanabe said sourly next to Mitarashi Shika. After speaking, he glanced at Gekko Han, who was hiding in a tall pine tree not far away, his hand transformed into a bullet, aiming at the Sand Shinobi stronghold below. It couldn't be helped; the new Bloodline Limit awakened by this kid from the Gekko Clan was truly enviable.

"The Gekko Clan has produced a remarkable young man." Looking at Gekko Han on the pine tree, Gekko Xingye, who was wrapped in bandages and still guarding Gekko Han under the tree, along with several other members of the Gekko Clan, Mitarashi Shika said with envy.

To be honest, Mitarashi Shika also felt a bit sour in his heart. Gekko Han's Bloodline Limit was as if it was specifically awakened for assassination. If his own clan could awaken such a Bloodline Limit, it would definitely become a famous clan in the ninja world, even surpassing the Senju and Uchiha in fame. It was no wonder Gekko Xingye treasured this kid so much.

"Bang!" Orange-red flames erupted from the muzzle, the wind pressure blowing the leaves, kicking up dust, and the echoing gunshot resounded through the mountain forest. A crimson bullet shot out from the muzzle at an extremely high speed, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Hearing the gunshot, everyone glanced at Gekko Han on the pine tree and then went back to their own business. No one from Konoha said anything about Gekko Han exposing their position by firing. Since they didn't have to charge into battle, everyone was naturally happy to be at ease and out of danger.

"At this speed, it's definitely seven to eight hundred meters per second!" Looking at Gekko Han firing and the fleeting red light that could only be seen from a distance, Hayate Watanabe fell silent for a moment and began to discuss quietly with Mitarashi Shika.

"At least seven to eight hundred meters! It might even exceed one kilometer per second," Mitarashi Shika added. "With this speed, within thirty meters, even I couldn't dodge it unless I predicted his attack and dodged in advance."

"Me too," Hayate Watanabe said with a wry smile upon hearing this. "This is even when he's not ambushing. If it were an ambush, let alone predicting, I would be dead before I even heard a sound. I wouldn't be able to dodge it even from thirty meters away."

(Nerve reaction speed is 0.03 to 0.05. Even if a ninja's reaction speed is much faster, from seeing the bullet to the nerves reacting to the body, and then the body starting to dodge, at thirty meters, the bullet has basically reached in front of them. At thirty meters, it's impossible for an average Jonin to dodge, except for beasts relying on instinct and the protagonist.)

It wasn't just them; other Konoha ninjas were also discussing in hushed tones, but no one believed they could dodge if Gekko Han ambushed them. Otherwise, the Sand Shinobi wouldn't be hiding in their houses, afraid to come out.

"Bang!" The gunshot sounded again, and then the gunfire subsided. Gekko Han shook his head and jumped down from the pine tree. However, Gekko Han didn't change his right hand back; changing it back and forth wasted too many Energy Points.

"Guess another Sand Shinobi died."

"Wonder what it looks like to be hit in the arm."

Seeing this, the Konoha ninjas started discussing quietly again. However, no one wanted to test it.

"Han, have some water!" As soon as Gekko Han jumped down from the pine tree, a female ninja from the Gekko Clan immediately handed him a water bottle.

"Thank you, Sister Naizi," Gekko Han said, taking the water bottle and drinking a couple of sips. Then he said to Gekko Xingye, "Uncle Xingye, prepare to change positions."

"Change positions? Why? Even if a few Sand Shinobi with Earth Release sneak over, there's no need to worry!" Gekko Xingye asked with some confusion.

"The Sand Shinobi are using Earth Release to dig tunnels!" Gekko Han said.

"Han, there's no need to worry about that. Even if the Sand Shinobi dare to tunnel over, we still have sensory ninjas and Earth Release ninjas. They'll definitely die a horrible death," Gekko Xingye said with a smile. If tunneling battles were that easy to succeed, they would have been used on the battlefield long ago.

"It's not that. It's that the Sand Shinobi are on guard, and it's hard for me to get another chance to attack," Gekko Han said.

"Alright! I'll go tell everyone!" Upon hearing this, Gekko Xingye nodded. He got up and walked towards Mitarashi Shika and Hayate Watanabe.

————————Splitter half a minute ago————————

Inside the Sand Shinobi stronghold, unable to leave their cover, the Sand Shinobi quickly came up with a solution: digging tunnels between the wooden houses using Earth Release.

"Ichiro... catch!"

In the Sand Shinobi stronghold, a young Sand Shinobi Genin carefully moved to the doorway of a wooden house and called out to a young Sand Shinobi named Ichiro in another wooden house. As the door of the opposite wooden house opened and Ichiro was seen behind the door, the young man immediately threw a scroll he was holding.

The thrown scroll drew an arc in the air, and the young Sand Shinobi named Ichiro calmly reached out and caught it.

"Ichiro, thank..." Seeing this, the young man who threw the scroll was about to say a few words of thanks. A bullet flew rapidly, piercing through the wooden wall of the house and hitting his feet.

"Pfft!"

Wood chips flew, blood splattered, and the young man's legs were instantly blown off. His slightly forward-leaning body also fell out of the doorway.

"Ah!" A heart-wrenching scream erupted.

"Bang!" A gunshot came from the mountain on the right, and the Sand Shinobi in both wooden houses simultaneously looked over.

"Damn it!"

Looking at the young Sand Shinobi whose legs were blown off and who had fallen outside the door, the Sand Shinobi in the two wooden houses all changed their expressions. A young Sand Shinobi immediately rushed over to pull the screaming young Sand Shinobi, who had fallen outside the door, back.

"Don't go over," the middle-aged Sand Shinobi shouted to stop him. Unfortunately, it was too late. The young Sand Shinobi's hand had already reached out of the doorway and grabbed the wound on the young Sand Shinobi's severed legs, preparing to pull the screaming young Sand Shinobi into the wooden house.

"Pfft!" The bullet once again pierced the wooden wall of the wooden house, hitting the young Sand Shinobi's head and blowing it apart.

"Boom!" The headless corpse of the young Sand Shinobi fell at the doorway.

'Earth Release, Earth Flow Wall!' An earth wall rose on the right side of the wooden house, blocking the right side of the wooden house and also blocking the young Sand Shinobi who had fallen and was screaming.

"Quick, save him! Send him to the Medical Ninja," the middle-aged Sand Shinobi said, looking at the two holes in the wooden wall. He continued, "The enemy shot through the wooden house. The thrown scroll exposed his position, and the opponent predicted their positions inside the houses."

"Everyone, no more throwing things between wooden houses. All item transfers must go through tunnels," a Sand Shinobi shouted in the wooden house. Hearing this, another Sand Shinobi immediately shouted in the wooden house, and other wooden houses also began to shout, relaying messages to each other.

One Sand Shinobi quickly picked up the young Sand Shinobi with the severed legs and went through the tunnel to the wooden house where the Medical Ninja was located.
