Early morning of August 24th----
Orochimaru, who was originally resting, suddenly opened his eyes. Jiraiya, who had his eyes closed, immediately noticed and opened his eyes. He saw Orochimaru nodding to him, so Jiraiya woke up Akaseki and others who were sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed and adjusting their status.
"Hanzō has already taken action, and thousands of warriors are trapped in the poisonous mist." Orochimaru said.
At the same time, Rain Ninja can be seen in the valley. At this time, it also begins to leave the valley and move toward the battlefield fifty miles away.
Obviously they also have communication methods, and now they know the approximate location of their companions fighting!
Orochimaru team did not take action immediately, but waited by the entrance of the valley until----
Whoosh whoosh whoosh-
When almost half of Rain Ninja passed through the Taniguchi Pass----
"Akaseki." Orochimaru called Akaseki.
Akaseki immediately nodded slightly, and at the same time----
Boom boom boom-
At the mouth of the valley, there was a sudden roar!
That's right, it's the "Air Burst Technique" of Akaseki----
During this half of the night, Akaseki took advantage of the characteristic that the body's chakra can be restored after "Mirror Clone", and continued to clone and recover, and separated into six half-blue "Mirror Clone"!
In terms of recovery speed, if Akaseki is driven at full power, it can actually be even more.
However, in actual operation, because "Mirror Clone" cannot restore chakra on its own, Akaseki actually has to maintain the chakra consumption caused by their "existence". Therefore, six "Mirror Clone" in "best condition" are almost the current limit of Akaseki.
Unless Akaseki has been using the "three-piece suit", the consumption of the existence of six clones has already filled up Akaseki's normal chakra recovery efficiency.
Previously, it had been three, three shifts, always keeping three "Mirror Clone" here at Akaseki, absorbing chakra from Akaseki, and the other three, using "Earth Style: Underground Projection Fish Technique", lurking outside the "Sealing Technique" arranged by Taniguchi and Rain Ninja.
If Rain Ninja's sealed ninja was stronger, he might be able to discover Akaseki's clone, but unfortunately - no if.
At this moment, three "Mirror Clone" of Akaseki who were lurking at the mouth of the valley came out directly, and a series of "Air Burst Technique" came!
Now Mirror Clone, which represents the best state of Akaseki, can be split three times each, which is one "Mirror Clone". In theory, fifteen "Air Burst Technique" can be stacked in place----
Unfortunately, the theory cannot be achieved in practice - once there are too many clones, it is difficult to achieve "simultaneity". After all, the subsequent serial explosions are fool-like operations and are just "instinct" Hand Seals.
But if they are not at the same time, there will be the embarrassing situation of "Mirror Clone, which has not yet been completed by Hand Seals, is killed by the next Mirror Clone". On average, it will be stacked seven or eight times.
But even so, it is enough to expand the range of effective damage caused by low pressure to the diameter of a dry meter!
Orochimaru had seen the existence of this weakness during Akaseki's training before, and had specifically told Akaseki to spread out the ambush "Mirror Clone".
In this way, along the passage at the mouth of the valley, three points exploded in a series. If they were at the same point, although the power was amazing in theory, in fact - the "Mirror Clone" at the back was basically blown to pieces by itself, and there was no time to use ninjutsu.
Ten meters in diameter, how big is it?
If it is one-on-one, if the opponent chooses to dodge, he can basically dodge. After all, it is ten meters centered on himself, and there is a "serial superposition" process----
But things are different now!
This is when Rain Ninja continued to rush out of the valley, a super low pressure belt ten meters wide and more than thirty meters long was drawn directly at the mouth of the valley----
This passage is only about ten meters wide!
Of the more than three hundred Rain Ninja, almost 10% were within this range. In addition to those who couldn't stop and continued to rush in, about fifty Rain Ninja were blown away on the spot.
Immediately----
Bang bang
In the light effect smoke brought by Spatial Friction, huge Manda and Gamabunta appeared one after another at the entrance of the valley at the same time!
Without giving these "stupid" Rain Ninja a chance, Gamabunta directly pulled out a five- to six-meter-long "short knife" and "swept the floor" in front of them----
That's right, a short sword.
To a human, it is huge, but to Gamabunta, this is indeed a short sword.
Manda also opened his mouth directly and had a "self-service"----
"What, what's going on?"
"Not good! There's an enemy attack----"
"Okay, so big----"
"Quick! Jonin channeling Giant Salamander!"
Rain Ninja reacted quickly in the chaos. Manda and Gamabunta were attacked by Rain Ninja from behind.
After cleaning up the Rain Ninja that had been blown away in the narrow valley entrance passage, the two huge Ninja Beast turned around at this time----
Manda was at the exit, facing more than a hundred Rain Ninja who wanted to turn back outside the valley. Gamabunta was at the inward entrance of the valley entrance passage. He also turned around and faced more than a hundred Rain Ninja who were about to rush out.
As for the four Akaseki, they rushed into the scope of the valley entrance passage!
Although most of the people inside were blown away just now and were instantly killed, there were still twenty or thirty fish that escaped the trap - their own location was in a corner where the air pressure was not that low.
About fifty Rain Ninja were touched and killed directly by the explosion. Akaseki's sneak attack was not unsuccessful.
But among the twenty or thirty Rain Ninjas left, there are fully two Jonins!
Suddenly, under the space smoke of "Summoning Technique", two huge Giant Salamander appeared in the valley.
Although they were behind Manda and Gamabunta, there seemed to be a chance for a sneak attack or a flanking attack, but at this time four people from Akaseki, plus three "Mirror Clone", had also rushed in!
--
"Be careful, quickly use the power of the poisonous mist."
"There is danger at the entrance of the valley, please be careful----"
"The people in front have returned, hold on!"
People Land of Rain were still encouraging themselves, while Manda and Gamabunta each used their own bodies to block the passage at the entrance of the valley. For a while, people outside wanted to come in and people inside wanted to leave.
As for the fish that slipped through the valley entrance passage, the four of Akaseki are enough to suppress them.
"Is it, is it Konoha's ninja? Our plan has been discovered!"
"Don't be afraid, break through the valley road as soon as possible and meet up with your comrades behind."
"What kind of clone is this? Everyone, be careful!"
"This, this seems to be Mirror Clone of Kagami Uchiha----"
Giant Salamander from Rain Ninja's side showed up one after another. Seeing this, Ranwu came to Teacher Jiraiya's side to help Gamabunta resist the "poisonous fog" here.
"Cough cough cough----no no no----Jiraiya Don't always cause trouble for me!"
--
"The moist air is still comfortable, little girl, you did a great job, I will cover you from now on——"
Gamabunta, who was originally unable to bear the poisonous fog, scolded Jiraiya angrily. After feeling the impact of the thick fog, he began to express his gratitude to Ranwu who helped settle the poisonous fog.
In contrast, Orochimaru doesn't need help yet----
Manda directly inhaled the poisonous mist in large areas without any abnormality.
"Smelly Toad, are you too weak? If you keep chirping, be careful, I will swallow you up too!" Manda said arrogantly.
Although its strength is similar to that of Gamabunta, its physiological structure determines that Toad is very sensitive to the toxin of Giant Salamander, while snakes are almost immune.
Manda was looking at the Giant Salamander outside. If Orochimaru hadn't been reminding it all the time and staying at the mouth of the valley, it would have already rushed out for extra food!
At the same time----
Fire Style·Fire Release: Toad Oil Flame Bullet!
Kusanagi Sword·Sora no Tachi!
The two large Ninja Beasts are mainly responsible for "blocking", while Orochimaru and Jiraiya are not idle at this time, and kill one after another, causing massive damage to Rain Ninja.
Jiraiya is using the famous Fire Style, and Gamabunta is adding fuel to the fire, and Orochimaru---- is already using the "Heavenly Cloud Sword" that he just got.
Sure enough, Orochimaru didn't know why, but he had already set his sights on this grass sword.
Within a few days of getting it, I was already very skilled in using it. In the hands of Orochimaru, the sword could be stretched or shortened at will, and the sword could be wielded out of thin air. It looked like a melee weapon, but it could actually cause a large area of damage. It was obvious that the function of this "Heavenly Cloud Sword" had been studied for a long time.
Gamabunta didn't bother to argue with Manda at this time, and after persisting for a while----
"Jiraiya, change!" Gamabunta reminded him angrily, holding his knife.
"Okay!" Jiraiya followed the good advice.
Even with Ranwu's help in delaying, Gamabunta's side couldn't hold on for long. After fighting for a while, they clamored to go back and recuperate.
After greeting Jiraiya, Gamabunta Hand Seals disappeared, and Jiraiya summoned Gamaken.
After Gamaken appeared holding an iron fork and a pot lid shield, although it was slightly smaller than Gamabunta, it was enough to take over the position of Gamabunta.
"Jian, how long can you hold on?" Jiraiya asked.
Gamaken has always been modest and reliable, but because of this, Jiraiya is afraid that he will hold on.
"This poison gas concentration----half an hour is no problem." Gamaken judged.
Jiraiya:----
"Gamabunta That guy is lazy again!" Jiraiya muttered.
Obviously Gamabunta shouldn't last just fifteen minutes.
The main reason is not because of laziness, but because Gamabunta doesn't want to listen to Manda's ridicule.
"Jie Jie Jie, another Toad is here? It feels like we are serving food."
"You can't stand it any longer so soon?"
"Mount Myoboku is Toad----"
Mount Myoboku and Ryūchi Cave are old enemies, and Manda mocked them mercilessly.
If the situation were different, Orochimaru might also mock Jiraiya, but now Orochimaru feels a little uncomfortable----
Why can Jiraiya summon different Toad shifts, but he can only summon Manda?
It's not because I didn't directly sign a contract with Ryūchi Cave!
At the same time, Akaseki, Minato and Yakushi Nonō also came to both sides to help guard the valley entrance, so as to prevent Ninja Beast from being too big and some fish slipping through the corners. As for the remaining enemies in the valley passage, they have been eliminated.
Minato came to Teacher Jiraiya's side, and Akaseki and Yakushi Nonō came to captain Orochimaru's side.
Mainly because Minato's fighting style would occasionally summon the limbs of Mount Myoboku Toad, which Manda was not interested in.
When Rain Ninja was being killed and injured----
"Cough cough cough----Orochimaru! What's going on?" Manda suddenly scolded.
Orochimaru also looked at this moment and said, "It's Great Salamander King----Jiraiya, withdraw!"
