Faced with the taunts and provocations of Flying Kite and others, before 'Ai' had time to rebuke, hundreds of Samurai Puppets in front of him made a uniform sound, waving Samurai knives and surrounded him, knocking back everything he was about to say.
Under normal circumstances, faced with the siege of hundreds of puppets, 'Ai' would not be afraid at all.
And he could see that the comprehensive performance of these Puppet Samurai was not high. Most of them were only at the Genin level, and very few of them could reach the Chunin level.
But this is a one-on-one competition under normal circumstances. These hundreds of Puppet Samurais will neither fight him one-on-one, nor are they just a group of soldiers wielding Samurai knives.
Because as soon as more than a dozen Puppet Samurais rushed up, the gaps between their bodies lit up with gorgeous light from the inside, irradiated outwards, and then exploded with a bang, engulfing his body in impact and flames.
What followed was Puppet Samurai's charge that was fearless of death and pain.
There is no such thing as morale or fear among them. Controlled by Puppeteer, they are perfect fighting tools that only exist in their ideal form.
One after another, wave after wave.
This made 'Ai' very annoyed, and sometimes he had to dodge to avoid the self-destruction attacks of these puppets.
However, in most cases, he needs to face the charges of these puppets head-on. The reason is that the space inside Barrier and the battle field delineated are too small for a ninja of his level.
Not to mention, on such a slightly small battlefield, hundreds of puppets have to be squeezed in, and it is difficult to even close the distance, because every time they dodge to a place, there will always be Puppet Samurai charging to surround them.
'There is no Chakra Threads control, which means that there must be a device similar to receiving the Chakra signal inside these puppets to make them active...'
'Ai' analyzed the trajectories of these puppets' activities, and finally found that all these analyzes were meaningless.
Even if you know these things, what can you do? The most important question now is how to break through this Barrier Ninjutsu that covers you.
If this layer of Barrier cannot be broken, in-depth exploration of puppet tactics will be just nonsense and a waste of time.
"Huh?"
Just when 'Ai' was about to dodge Puppet Samurai's self-destruction attack, this time the nearby Puppet Samurai did not come forward to attack like the previous puppets. Their right eyeballs suddenly shot out from their faces. They did not deliberately aim at 'Ai', but just flew into the air and exploded with a bang--
A large cloud of purple smoke spread out at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, the purple smoke filled the entire interior of Barrier.
And the puppet's right eyeball keeps popping out, releasing purple smoke.
Poison gas!
The moment he was swallowed by the purple smoke, 'Ai''s expression changed, and his worst fears came true.
If all these puppets adopt a self-destruction attack, he can barely hold on for a long time without being directly defeated.
But if the attack is coordinated with poison gas, the situation will be different.
His body does have extremely high resistance to toxicity, but no matter how high it is, it is not immune to toxicity. In a sealed environment full of poison, his body cannot sustain it for too long.
"Give up your fantasy of escaping. The instructions given to us by General are to capture you alive. The earlier you give up your fantasy and resist, the less you will suffer..."
Magnet Release Ninja Flying Kite, outside Barrier, continued to interfere with light words, trying to break through 'Ai's mental defense, making him unable to think calmly.
In a dangerous closed environment, losing your cool can be a very dangerous thing.
"Well, the number of puppets inside is not enough. Let's throw a few more scrolls in."
Flying Kite said to the ninja on the side.
Since Barrier is closed, the poisonous mist cannot spread outward at all, and 'Ai's' vision is greatly hindered.
Flying Kite and others are also affected, but it doesn't matter. They continue to add more puppets, just to continue to increase the weight of 'Ai's defeat.
Although 'Ai' has been successfully captured in Barrier, it does not mean that it is safe. Facing such a top ninja, it is better to end the battle as soon as possible. After all, it is a long night and there are many dreams, and it will be bad if something unexpected happens.
Moreover, the consumption of Four Violet Flames Battle Formation and Chakra is also very serious.
As a result, large swaths of white smoke were mixed into the purple poisonous mist, and another five hundred puppets were summoned from the scroll sent into Barrier
The newly entered puppets also perform their own duties, some self-destruct, and some release poison gas bombs, leaving 'Ai' nowhere to escape in Barrier.
Outside Barrier, there is also the Sensory ninja who is always responsible for Sensory's "Ai" situation and monitors all his actions and movements.

In the forest under the moonlight, the snow was severely damaged. Thick trees full of savage vitality fell to the ground in random directions, making the battle site chaotic.
Kapui stared unblinkingly at a distance of more than ten meters in front of him. The vague outline of a petite girl appeared in the air that began to shake slightly.
This outline slowly changed from blurry to clear, and Komurasaki's entire body appeared from the invisible air, appearing in Kapui's field of vision with incomparable clarity.
"... Can you finally give it up?"
Kapui frowned and muttered to himself.
He did not relax his vigilance because of Komurasaki's image. On the contrary, after previous battles, he was quite familiar with Komurasaki's strength.
He carefully looked at Komurasaki's whole body. His smooth white skin and clothes were all spotless, which meant that his previous attack on Storm Release did not cause even a trace of damage to her.
This is really over the top.
Although he could not see the specific figure of Komurasaki before, he could use Sensory Ninjutsu to accurately locate it. Coupled with Storm Release's large-scale attack, even if it did not cause fatal injuries, the opponent should not be injured at all.
The opponent's attitude was undoubtedly telling him that all his attacks just now were worthless.
If this continues, he is likely to be the first to collapse from exhaustion due to insufficient Chakra.
As long as the mission this time is not to delay the opponent and prevent the opponent from going to the frontal battlefield, he now has the idea of tactical retreat.
In this situation, he could only bite the bullet and try to buy time for the frontal battlefield on the other side.
"Your heart is confused. Did you use Sensory Ninjutsu Sensory to change the morale of the battlefield on the other side?"
Komurasaki's pair of deep amber-gold pupils seemed to see through Kapui's heart, highlighting his pretentious toughness.
Kapui's expression did not change, but his body still stiffened slightly, apparently Komurasaki's thoughts had been precisely struck.
Yes, he did begin to worry about the situation on the frontal battlefield.
Because this was different from the plan he learned about, several powerful and unfamiliar Chakra suddenly appeared on the battlefield, which was obviously not their Hidden Cloud Village side.
This means that the counterattack plan they made was likely to be seen through by Land of Night from the beginning, so the opponent used a trick to deliberately lure them Hidden Cloud Village to take the initiative to attack.
Kapui took a deep breath, quickly shook off all the distracting thoughts in his mind, calmed down as much as possible, and focused on dealing with Komurasaki.
The opponent is not an easy master to deal with. Even if he is not careful, even if he has super Sensory ability, he is likely to fail here.
And once the opponent is allowed to leave and blend into the frontal battlefield, it will be more harmful to Hidden Cloud Village.
'This time, maybe I have to really fight...'
Kapui thought in his mind.
As a ninja, he has already accepted this fate. What he has to do is not to worry about the safety of his companions, but to delay the woman in front of him as much as possible, and not to let her leave even at his own risk.
As if aware of Kapui's increasingly serious and determined look, Komurasaki knew that the Storm Release ninja in front of him began to fight with the thought of sacrifice.
The lazy and decadent aura of always working hard has completely disappeared from him.
"It's really troublesome. It seems there's no way to break through here without using all your strength..."
Komurasaki mumbled and spoke as he found it troublesome.
This type of ninja who is very powerful and possesses Sensory abilities is not the type she likes to deal with.
Unlike other ninjas, she basically cuts them one by one.
However, just because you don't like dealing with it doesn't mean you can't deal with it.
It's just that under normal circumstances, she can only be at par with the other party.
Kapui Hearing these words, his body suddenly tensed up.
For some reason, he felt some kind of terrifying aura coming from Komurasaki that made him shudder, as if someone had grabbed his heart and stopped beating for an instant.
'Are you going to use the Genjutsu trick that forcibly controls people to fall into dreams?'
Kapui was alert and stepped back slowly, ready to dodge at any time.
According to the intelligence, when the other party uses the dream-like Genjutsu, a strong purple light and shadow will fall, and the hands cannot be unlocked, and they will exit from the invisible state.
With these 'weaknesses', he is sure not to be affected by the opponent's Genjutsu.
He thinks so--
However, the next scene completely changed his expression.
I saw Komurasaki bite his finger violently, and what flowed out from the fingertip was not red human blood, but some kind of blue blood, blooming with a deep and mysterious luster.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
It's Summoning Jutsu, not Genjutsu.
Komurasaki's move directly made him realize that the other party had unknown methods that were not in the intelligence system.
A huge white smoke screen exploded, and slender, tall black shadows, as well as enchanting and conspicuous red, were looming in the smoke screen.
That huge object that was tall enough to be thirty meters tall was neither a human nor a beast, but... a flower.
A huge red, enchanting blooming Red Spider Lily!
Red silky soft flowers, layered on top of each other, set off by emerald green leaves full of vitality, grow like water watered by blood.
It stands quietly in the wind and snow of winter, blooming regardless of season and location.
Under the bright and cold moonlight, Komurasaki's petite and slender graceful figure stood lightly in the center of the red petals.
Snowflakes were flying around her, and blood-red flowers were blooming around her.
Her aloof posture makes her look as elegant and mysterious as the goddess of the underworld, making people marvel at this picture that seems to have come to a standstill.
