Attack from the Sky

Five hundred meters above the forest where the Sand Shinobi and Konoha Ninja were fighting a great battle, fifty DJI Drones were flying in the sky, carrying Yueguang Han with steel wires.

"Hmph! My analysis was indeed correct. Rasa returned immediately upon hearing the gunshots."

Looking at the Konoha Ninja and Sand Shinobi fighting below, and Rasa who had just returned, Yueguang Han revealed a cold smile. His right hand transformed into a Bullet, aiming at the great battle below.

Rasa was indeed very restraining to him, and he truly had no way to deal with Rasa, even now. But it was different for the other Sand Shinobi. At a distance of five hundred meters, and from the sky, he could toy with the other Sand Shinobi as he pleased. And at an altitude of five hundred meters, even Rasa might not be able to threaten him.

Yueguang Han did not follow the plan he had made with Yueguang Xingye and the others. Yueguang Han knew very well that Rasa would definitely return immediately upon hearing the gunshots, and he would have no chance to sneak attack the Sand Shinobi from behind. The plan he had spoken of was merely to get Yueguang Xingye and the others to agree with him. It had flaws from the start, but they didn't understand his abilities well enough, so they didn't notice.

The reason Yueguang Han didn't tell Yueguang Xingye and the others his true plan was because they would definitely not agree. People are selfish. His true plan was to have them attract all the Sand Shinobi to create an opportunity for his assassination, not just to attract Rasa alone. This was equivalent to using everyone as cannon fodder.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!..." A series of crisp gunshots exploded in the sky. They spread to the ground like real thunder. Mud bullets were ejected from the barrels, falling towards the ground below.

"Clang, clang!"

On the battlefield where the Sand Shinobi and Konoha Ninja were fighting, Yueguang Xingye was desperately holding on with his long sword against the combined attack of two Sand Shinobi Jonin wielding kunai. The kunai and the long sword continuously made the sound of metal clashing.

'Earth Style, Earth Hands!'

Beside him, a Sand Shinobi Chunin was constantly looking for an opportunity, using ninjutsu to support the two Jonin's attack. Branches of earth hands would appear from the ground from time to time, always grabbing at Yueguang Xingye's feet at critical moments.

'Brat, you better not come back!' Yueguang Xingye was struggling under the combined attack of three Sand Shinobi, with no room to even counterattack. The battlefield had become very chaotic. Under the attack of twice their number of Sand Shinobi, the Konoha Ninja found it very difficult to even retreat, and there were already multiple casualties.

"Clang!" Yueguang Xingye had just blocked a kunai from a Sand Shinobi Jonin with his long sword when, beside him, another Sand Shinobi Jonin's kunai stabbed over. Seeing this, Yueguang Xingye immediately took a step back and swung his long sword to block.

"Pfft!" Blood and brain matter splattered. Before Yueguang Xingye's long sword could touch the Sand Shinobi's kunai, the Sand Shinobi Jonin's head exploded like a watermelon.

"This...!" Seeing this sudden scene, Yueguang Xingye's eyes widened.

"This is...?" Seeing their comrade's head suddenly explode, the Sand Shinobi Jonin and the supporting Sand Shinobi Chunin who were surrounding Yueguang Xingye also widened their eyes.

"Pfft!" In less than a second, while the three of them were stunned, another bullet descended from the sky, directly shattering the shoulder of another Sand Shinobi Jonin.

"Ah!" A piercing scream came from the Sand Shinobi. The intense pain from his entire shoulder being shattered by the bullet almost made him faint.

"Pfft!" The next second, his head rolled off, and the scream abruptly stopped. A bullet severed the neck of the screaming Sand Shinobi Jonin.

"It's that..." Seeing two Jonin die within two seconds, the supporting Sand Shinobi Chunin finally reacted. He immediately turned and ran, wanting to leave the area, while shouting a shrill cry as if he had seen a ghost, wanting to warn the surrounding Sand Shinobi that the most dangerous enemy had arrived.

"Pfft." A bullet descended from the sky, instantly blowing his head apart.

"It's that strange sound!"

"The sound is coming from the sky, from above."

On the battlefield, the Sand Shinobi and Konoha Ninja also heard the gunshots coming from the sky, and cries of alarm erupted. The Konoha Ninja were overjoyed, while the Sand Shinobi's hearts tightened, as if the scythe of death was hanging over their heads, fearing that they would be the next to die. Even the Jonin felt a chill run down their spines, as if they had been targeted by a venomous snake.

'Finally, they're here!' The Konoha Ninja finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was like seeing hope in despair.

'This is bad, appearing at such a time!' The Sand Shinobi cursed inwardly. Caught in the melee, they found it difficult to dodge or defend, almost at the mercy of the Konoha youth in the sky. For a moment, their fighting became distracted.

'Damn it! How can he be in the sky!' Hearing the gunshots and seeing ninjas suddenly getting headshots and dying, Rasa quickly looked up at the sky and found the small black dot five hundred meters up. He cursed inwardly. The ninjas of both sides were already entangled in combat, and the fighting had spread over a large area. The situation was extremely complex, and heavy casualties were inevitable this time.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang..."

In the sky, the gunshots continued to ring out. On the ground, Sand Shinobi fighting Konoha Ninja were getting headshots or having their shoulders blown apart. Facing attacks at three times the speed of sound, which could descend upon them at any moment, they were completely unaware and had no chance to dodge in advance.

"Everyone, gather here!" Rasa shouted, while controlling his Golden Sand to lift himself into the sky. He also manipulated a large amount of Golden Sand to rise, gradually forming a sand cloud that covered the entire battlefield, attempting to block the sky above the entangled combatants with the Golden Sand. (Due to the melee, Rasa could not use Golden Sand for indiscriminate area attacks.)

Receiving Rasa's order, the Sand Shinobi dared not linger with the Konoha Ninja any longer. They immediately broke off their fights with the Konoha Ninja and fled towards the cover of the Golden Sand Cloud.

"Tie up these Sand Shinobi! Don't let them escape under the sand cloud, or Young Han won't be able to support us," Yueguang Xingye shouted upon seeing this, charging towards the fleeing Sand Shinobi first. The other Konoha Ninja, seeing this, quickly pursued their opponents.

"Bang bang bang...!" In the sky, gunshots continued to ring out. Many Sand Shinobi fell to the ground, unable to rise again, before they could escape under the Golden Sand Cloud. The Sand Shinobi who were tied up were even more anxious.

"If you can fly five hundred meters, what about a thousand meters! Even if you can fly to a height of a thousand meters, can you still control the Golden Sand below?"

In the sky, looking at the portion of the sand cloud flying towards him, Yueguang Han sneered, controlling his drone to fly higher into the sky. At the same time, his hands didn't stop, and the Barrett continued to roar. Bullets rained down like beams of light, precisely killing the Sand Shinobi who hadn't yet escaped under the sand cloud.
