Clang, clang, clang~
In the blink of an eye, the eight Leaf Village ninja Qian had brought were locked in battle with the five Mist Village Chunin not far away.
Qian withdrew his gaze from them and looked back at the two Mist Village Jonin.
Seeing him look over, the two Mist Village Jonin wasted no words and reacted at once.
One of them—the Mist Village Jonin whose streams of water shooting from both arms were still wrapped around him—suddenly exerted force and dragged him forward.
At the same time, the other Mist Village Jonin seized the chance to use his freed right hand and threw several Shuriken, aiming straight for the vital points all over his body.
It was clear that the two of them worked together with perfect coordination.
Unfortunately, all of it was futile before the Sharingan.
Qian's Sharingan spun rapidly, locking onto the Shuriken in an instant.
After confirming there were no hidden tricks on them, he followed the pulling force of the water streams and lunged straight forward, avoiding the Shuriken's attacks.
Not only that, he also mobilized his chakra again and used Chakra Scalpel, slicing through the stream of water wrapped around his left wrist with one palm.
With both hands freed, Qian did not hesitate at all. He twisted his body, avoiding the Kunai the Mist Village Jonin ahead threw at him again, while rapidly completing his hand seals and casting the ninjutsu—Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!
The next moment, dense clusters of fire were spat out by him, like bullets one after another, shooting out and striking straight at the two Mist Village Jonin.
Seeing this, the two Mist Village Jonin did not dodge blindly. One of them continued using the streams of water in his hands to restrict his movements.
