Konoha 38 April 10, early morning.
Akaseki was underground, slowly using "Mud-Stealth Technique" to soften the soil and reduce the fluctuations caused by stealth, and approached Roshi in the headquarters----
One hundred meters----Fifty meters----Forty meters----Thirty-five meters----
Akaseki stopped at this distance!
At this distance, Akaseki can sense the position of Roshi, and even knows that he is sitting cross-legged now. He should be refining chakra or meditating spiritually. What Akaseki perceives is not the fluctuation of chakra, but the fluctuation of the earth, so he only feels the "posture".
Although Roshi is not sitting on the ground, it is the same if it is sitting on a bed or the bed is on the ground.
From this perception effect alone, it is impossible to tell who is who, but Minato has already told Akaseki the corresponding chakra strength of each person, so Akaseki knows that this is Roshi, and also knows the locations of the other three Jonin.
Akaseki did not continue to approach, so as not to alarm the snake.
But--
"Huh?" Roshi still noticed and opened his eyes.
However, Roshi obviously didn't really find anything. He just looked around cautiously, as if he wanted to find something.
Arrive----the enemy whose existence is not sure yet!
Akaseki noticed that Roshi was awake, and couldn't help but curse in his heart - Jinchuriki---- is really too sharp.
This is still Roshi, which is not a perfect Jinchuriki. The relationship with Four-Tails is not as harmonious as Bunpuku and Shukaku, otherwise Four-Tails could give him a clear warning at this time!
Even now, Roshi feels vaguely "hostile", but he is not sure if it is an illusion.
Akaseki No more hesitation at this time----
Although the main body did not move, the six clones had already taken action!
The six clones of Earth Style·Earth Style: Opening Earth Rising Excavation, in groups of two, then came to where the three Jonin were, and then——
One clone Hand Seals used this "B-level Earth Style ninjutsu" to lift up a huge rock pillar from the ground: the other clone----was lifted up together!
Boom boom boom accompanied by three loud noises, the three Jonins each lifted a huge rock pillar----
Except for the Kamizuru Clan who was patrolling the night, he instinctively retreated to avoid the blow after feeling the trembling of the earth. The general avoided the blow. The other two Jonin were all knocked to the ground!
Not to mention, a large amount of soil suddenly spewed out from the top of the rock pillar, and two Mirror Akaseki!
That's right, because of Minato's reminder, Akaseki prepared to rush out at a faster speed to avoid being discovered when approaching the ground.
When rising in the earth, the fastest speed Akaseki can think of is to directly use ninjutsu to push himself out!
The reason why there are two Mirror Akaseki is not that both clones came out, but——
The clone that was pushed out was "broken" on the spot. Just because of the characteristics of Mirror Clone, even if it was broken, it became two!
Kamizuru Let's not talk about it. Two Stone Ninja Jonin who were sleeping soundly were suddenly pushed directly up by such a thick rock pillar. Even though they were basically alert and did not sleep to death, they basically woke up when Akaseki's ninjutsu wave appeared, but it was too late to hide.
Not to mention being knocked up in his sleep, and his brain still covered after that, two big red hands came out from next to him, slapping him up and down!
"Earth Style·Earth Style Wall!"
"Light-Weight Rock Technique!"
Under this fully equipped sneak attack configuration, both Stone Ninja Jonin showed the qualities that Jonin should have. At the moment they woke up, they were already in Hand Seals. Otherwise, they would definitely not have time to react in the face of this weird big hand.
Click, click - two pairs of Akaseki and Mirror Clone, at this time they both "high-fived" successfully.
For the first pair of children, Akaseki, "Earth Style Wall" created by the other party's chakra appeared between their palms, but----
The two Susanoo palms smacked down, directly smashing the "Earth Style Wall" together, and the life and death of the Stone Ninja among them was immediately unknown!
The target of the other pair, Akaseki, was a little smarter. At the critical moment, they actually used "Light-Weight Rock Technique" to increase the gravity on themselves, accelerate their fall and dodge----
As for Kamizuru's Jonin, although it dodged the first blow because it was not resting, it was not easy to deal with the two Akaseki's Mirror Clone afterwards.
"Hive Technique!"
Kamizuru controls a large number of bees, spits out earthy red sticky liquid, and wants to control the enemy's actions, but----
Third Kazekage and Sand Iron Secret Technique cannot trap "Susanoo", and the secretions of these bees certainly can't!
With a stroke of the red palm, the seemingly thick and solid mucus was broken open, and the two clones continued to attack Kamizuru----
At the same time, when "Earth Style: Opening Earth Rising Excavation" was just launched, Roshi had already reacted and wanted to go to support, but----
Earth Style·Earth Style: Opening Earth Rising Excavation!
Roshi immediately felt the fluctuation of "Earth Style: Opening Earth Rising Excavation" coming from under his feet.
"Use Earth Style on me? How arrogant!" Roshi started Hand Seals immediately.
It's not to directly defend against Akaseki's attack, but----
Earth Style·Earth Style: Moving Earth Core!
I saw Roshi slap his hands directly on the ground in the house.
The next moment, with Roshi as the center, a piece of the surrounding ground suddenly collapsed!
"Earth Style: Moving Earth Core" uses the power of the earth's fluctuations to make the earth rise and fall. Usually it makes it rise, but now Roshi makes the ground under its feet drop, with the intention of suffocating the sneak attacker below.
Generally speaking, if you are attacked by Earth Style while sneaking underground, your tactical position is indeed very disadvantageous.
Especially now Akaseki originally wanted to push himself up, but the rock and soil above it sank and compacted, becoming a two-sided sandwich.
Attack power!
But----
Click, click, click Roshi looked stagnant, and saw that the ground, which had been compacted due to sinking, was gradually cracking------
The next moment, Roshi ducked away from where he was, and instead, Akaseki, dressed in red Susanoo, emerged from the ground!
The all-round defense of "Susanoo" makes Akaseki still in good condition under the pressure, and with the help of "Susanoo"
The force penetrated the ground----
"Uchiha Clan----Is that you?" Ah Zi couldn't help but be startled when she recognized the person.
At first glance, Roshi just recognized Uchiha Clan - but then, Roshi completely recognized Akashi Uchiha!
Although Akaseki is not only taller and stronger than two years ago, but also has a more mature and determined appearance, Roshi still recognized this Konoha boy who had just participated in Chunin Ninja Exams when he was the guest examiner!
"Hey, Roshi Examiner, long time no see." Akaseki said, grinning with a smile that said "it's exciting to fight". At the same time, the Three-Tomoe lines in his eyes kept rotating, and he rushed towards Roshi.
Roshi's eyes were slightly distracted, but he immediately came back to his senses and exchanged blows with "Susanoo"----
At this time, Roshi's heart was also churning.
He was also very optimistic about Akaseki at the beginning, but he never imagined that this young man would be able to stand in front of him like this in just two years!
Although Roshi didn't feel that he really couldn't deal with this brat at this time, Roshi's heart sank when he thought about the gap of just two years.
"It seems that Lord Tsuchikage this time----" Roshi just started to say something.
At this moment, Roshi's expression suddenly froze, and he saw----
A blond figure had already arrived behind Roshi, and Kunai stabbed him in the back of the neck!
It was Minato Namikaze who rushed over immediately after sensing Akaseki's ninja skills——
Although everyone used the sound of battle as the order to attack, Minato was the first to intervene on the battlefield, faster than the three Jonin.
Minato's Kunai was directly blocked.
It's not that Roshi used any blocking posture, but that - he was instantly covered with a "lava"-like coat!
Not only did it block Kunai, but the high temperature instantly destroyed Kunai, forcing Minato to retreat----
Lava Style Chakra Mode!
This is Roshi using the power of Tailed Beast to imitate Secret Technique of Kumogakure.
There is no stimulation of nerve speed like "Lightning Release Chakra Mode", but - it is not just as simple as "Lava Style Chakra" coverage!
The red tail of Roshi was thrown out from behind, but Minato had already disappeared in place, and one of its tails hit the ground, leaving a scorch mark!
This is actually also "Tailed Beast Cloak"!
It also has bonuses to the body's speed and strength----
After Minato was forced to retreat, he retreated all the way back.
"I'll leave it to you after that----" Minato's voice sounded in Akaseki's ears.
At this time, Yangyong and Gongzhi Jiu are already in place!
The originally agreed-upon strategy was to contain three Uchiha Clan Jonin first. Jinchuriki would be restrained first, and it would be best to completely suppress his Tailed Beast.
Mirror Clone of Akaseki attacked three Jonin. On the one hand, these Chunin had to assist Mirror Clone of Akaseki, and on the other hand, they had to deal with a huge number of Stone Ninja and Chunin of Grass Ninja.
As for Torifu Akimichi, Sealing Technique must attack the stronghold first to avoid being exploited by Stone Ninja later.
In addition, once Jinchuriki Tailed Beast Transformation, Torifu Akimichi should also step up----
Minato was not disobeying the command just now, but was helping Akaseki to restrain Roshi before others arrived!
Yangyong and Gongzhi Jiu couldn't help but glance at Minato. Why is this kid so fast?
No, it should just be that because you have a better understanding with Akaseki, you can predict the timing of the move in advance?
A reasonable guess flashed through their minds, but they didn't have time to think about it at this time——
Three pairs of Three-Tomoe Sharingan surrounded Roshi wearing Tailed Beast Cloak!
Roshi's eyes are constantly flashing with Tomoe, obviously he is mentally fighting against the Tomoe in the eyes of this Genjutsu target. People without Sharingan cannot see it.
Because he was targeted by Akaseki from the beginning, Roshi did not have time to completely Tailed Beast Transformation. At this time, the connection with Tailed Beast was suppressed, and there was no chance for a while----
However, the "whiteboard Three-Tomoe Sharingan" in terms of three pairs of Genjutsu could not control Jinchuriki for a while.
"I'll contain him!" Akaseki pushed forward directly.
Roshi under "Lava Style Chakra Mode" is extremely hot all over, and ordinary ninjas cannot get close to it in close combat. However, Akaseki has "Susanoo" body protection, so of course it is not afraid of collision!
