With a crackling and hissing sound, the dry grass and branches began to burn, making a popping and crackling noise. Because the robbers were fast asleep at this time, no one noticed.
The indoor temperature began to rise. Suddenly, one of the robbers felt a bit hot and wanted to get up to go to the restroom to cool off. He opened his eyes and saw a scene he would never forget.
The intense flames quickly spread, and thick, acrid black smoke obstructed his vision. He cried out, "Fire!"
The next moment, his head was severed and fell to the ground with a thud, his eyes still filled with terror.
Yamanaka Inoichi's spirit form glanced at him indifferently. His spirit form wasn't afraid of the smoke, but his voice still woke up many of the robbers.
When the robbers woke up, they were initially incredulous, then shouted, "Fire! Fire!" Some even ran towards the exit, only to find that the door was buried under a huge earthen wall, and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't push it open.
He began to despair! There was no water in the house, and with such a huge fire, he would either be burned to death or suffocate!
Just then, a junior leader sneered, "It must be an enemy attack. The most important thing now is not to put out the fire, but to tell the three leaders that their men are coming to rescue us." So he ordered his men to fire smoke bombs towards the chimney.
Because the thick smoke obscured his vision, he couldn't see that his chimney was blocked and that he was still setting off signal flares.
As the signal flare soared into the sky, the junior leader smirked, thinking, "No matter who you are, you're not getting away today."
With a whoosh, the signal flare soared into the air, then crashed into Taiseki with a bang, sending sparks flying and scattering across their bed.
"Aaaaaaahhhhh! Fire! It's fire!" A robber was set on fire. He had just been awakened by the fire, and with his clothes on fire, his rationality vanished instantly. He ran around on instinct, then rolled on the ground.
His actions, however, caused the fire to spread, and many of the robbers who were not originally on fire were now engulfed in flames.
The scene was chaotic for a moment, and the junior leader felt a chill in his heart. Was he doomed to die today? Clearly, the enemy had come prepared!
Watching the robbers being burned to death or choked to death by the thick smoke, the small leader gritted his teeth. At that moment, a thought flashed through his mind, and he was about to say that he would use urine. But the next moment, Yamanaka Inoichi stretched out his hands, pierced through his body, and squeezed his heart and vocal cords.
With a forceful pinch and tug, the leader's eyes widened in fury, and no matter what he said, it was as if he had been silenced, unable to utter a sound.
The shattering of his heart left a gaping hole in his chest. He looked around to see who had attacked him, but found no one there. Then, a thought flashed through his mind.
"A ninja?" The little leader had barely had this thought when he lost the strength to support himself and collapsed to the ground.
This led to even greater chaos, with robbers being burned to death, screaming in agony, or having their heads chopped off.
Yamanaka Inoichi were in an empty field, carrying one child in each hand without stopping. He felt no pity for these beasts, who didn't work properly but relied on stealing, robbing, and rape to satisfy their selfish desires.
Such a beast has Annihilation all humanity and deserves to die.
Standing outside the Earth Style Wall Sarutobi Shinnosuke and Uchiha Fugaku could feel the heat inside; the air temperature had risen considerably.
The screams coming from inside made the two of them somewhat numb. Fortunately, the main house and the right wing were relatively far apart, otherwise, if the three ninjas in the main house had attacked, the three of them would have been in real trouble.
As the sounds gradually subsided, Yamanaka Inoichi emerged from the wall, returned to his body, and quickly woke up.
"Inoichi, how's the situation inside?" Sarutobi Shinnosuke Sarutobi Shinnosuke asked.
"Don't worry, it's all taken care of, not a single one left." Yamanaka Inoichi stood up and laughed after getting used to his body.
Uchiha Fugaku's lips curled into a smile, Sarutobi Shinnosuke looked at the Earth Style Wall with excitement; the mission was already nearly halfway complete!
On the other side, Namikaze Minato and Hyuga Hiashi, dressed in black night clothes, killed the two guards standing at the door of the left wing with unpredictable steps and speed.
Then, they waited for Akimichi Choza. Akimichi Choza arrived quickly, dressed in night clothes, his round belly trembling. He landed on the ground without making a sound.
Upon approaching, Akimichi Choza gave Namikaze Minato an "OK" sign, and Namikaze Minato nodded.
So he used Wind Release: Wind Dagger to silently cut the door open.
Carefully remove the wooden board and place it steadily on the ground.
Hyuga Hiashi then used his Byakugan to see the keys in the pants of the two guards, took them out, and held them in his hand.
The three entered the side room. Hyuga Hiashi found the cellar door, took out the key, pressed it in, and with a gentle turn, the door opened with a click.
The three of them worked together to lift the iron plate. Namikaze Minato, "Hiashi and I will go in. Choza, stay here and guard in case anything unexpected happens."
"Leave it to me." Akimichi Choza patted his chest. He might not be the smartest, but he was definitely the most obedient one.
Namikaze Minato nodded, exchanged a glance with Hyuga Hiashi, and the two walked down the secret passage.
The secret passage was quite long, and it smelled damp with earth and had a musty odor, causing the two of them to frown.
When they reached the bottom, they found another door, tightly closed. Minato Namikaze Minato looked at Hyuga Hiashi, Hyuga Hiashi took out a key, then another key, and opened the door.
The door was pushed open, and a sour, foul smell wafted out, making the two feel nauseous. Inside, the women were all barely clothed, dazed, and looking at them with disgust and fear.
"You, you all stay away!" one of the young and beautiful women roared, her voice as hoarse and chilling as a cuckoo's. Looking at the numerous bite marks on her body, Namikaze Minato clenched his fists.
"Everyone, we are ninjas from Konoha, here to rescue you." Namikaze Minato, enduring the stench and sour smell, removed his mask, revealing a bright, sunny smile.
Hyuga Hiashi Namikaze Minato pondered for a moment before removing his mask and revealing his face.
The woman gritted her teeth and said, "Why did you take so long to come?" Then she squatted down and began to cry. As if emotions were contagious, many girls and women joined in the crying.
Namikaze Minato took out more than a hundred black cloaks from his Storage Scroll and said, "Please bear with your grief and come with me. These cloaks are rather simple, please don't find them offensive."
After saying that, he gestured for everyone to go upstairs. "Everyone, hurry upstairs and be quiet! We'll cover your retreat, you all get down the mountain as soon as possible. We'll wipe out these beasts!"
