Might Guy

Every hair on his body stood on end!

His thighs refused to obey his desire to run for his life!

When they saw clearly that the paper fluttering down from the sky consisted entirely of explosive tags, the previously quiet Sunagakure camp instantly boiled over.

The sleeping Sand ninjas were successively woken up by the commotion outside.

When they saw the Sand ninja in charge of night watch screaming and shouting, these ninjas whose sweet dreams had been interrupted wore ugly expressions, but when they also followed his line of sight, their complexions instantly turned pale.

The few Jonin who had just been chatting now widened their eyes, roaring in disbelief:

"Why, why can Konoha's ninjas fly?"

"Could Iwagakure's ninjas be helping them?"

"Retreat! Quickly have all the ninjas in the camp retreat!"

"Everyone run separately! Only by scattering is there any possibility of surviving!"

While shouting, those Jonin did not lag behind in their footwork by even half a step, and each of them led a small squad of newly awakened Sunagakure in fleeing for their lives.

However, could they escape?

The quantity of explosive tags was quite substantial, and the entire Sunagakure camp was covered by the densely packed explosive tags in the sky; wherever these Sand ninjas cast their gaze, there was almost no patch of empty sky.

Tobirama Senju did not treat money as money. Since the daimyo of the Land of Fire greatly praised the war he initiated and offered to cover all military expenditures, he had prepared himself to squander a fortune.

Were explosive tags expensive? Of course they were very expensive, but they fell far short of human lives. Being able to use ninja tools to reduce the losses of Konoha's ninjas was something Tobirama Senju was quite willing to do.

He had to use the minimum losses and the fastest speed to strike his first battle in the ninja world!

This time, Konoha's reserved stockpile of explosive tags alone numbered over a million.

The densely packed papers of death in the sky, under the influence of gravity, burst out one magnificent spark after another in the Sunagakure camp like scattered flowers from a goddess.

The hissing burning sounds and colorful light flames resounded over the Sunagakure camp.

"Boom! Boom!"

The continuous explosions seemed to detonate in the hearts of all the Sand ninjas.

Glancing over, explosions were transmitting from everywhere.

Before a few moments had passed, the ground shattered into cracks hundreds of meters long. The power of an explosive tag was equivalent to a Fire Release ninjutsu unleashed by a Jonin; so many explosive tags exploding simultaneously had power roughly equivalent to the Wood Release unleashed by Tobirama Senju.

Trees turned to ashes, and boulders turned to dust. Even rivers were broken in the middle, splitting a massive gap to flow out into several new small streams.

The camp built by the Sand ninjas transformed into a sea of fire.

Screams, wails, agonizing cries...

It was not just this single location; the camps established by the Sand ninjas on the outskirts of the Land of Wind all suffered from this catastrophic disaster.

Even though it was the dead of night, the sky was seemingly illuminated by the fiery light of the explosions, making it as bright as day.

No one knew how long the explosions would continue.

In the eyes of the Sand ninjas who were fortunate enough to survive the first wave of airstrikes, they saw only the exact same scene: everywhere there was fire, the severed limbs of fellow villagers, red blood, and the paper still fluttering down from the sky!

Aside from the continuous fiery light of explosions, all that remained in their field of vision was a land scarred and battered all over!

Despair! Impotence!

The enemies in the sky were outside their range.

The psychological inability to resist grew in the heart of every Sand ninja...

The main camp where Lady Chiyo was located

At this moment, this place was also being subjected to airstrikes by a bunch of ninjas from the Star Clan.

Yet with Chiyo, a highly skilled puppet master, present, she could still shelter a portion of the Sand ninjas behind her.

She wore a gloomy expression as she dodged the aftermath of an explosion, casting her gaze around.

Entering her sight were the pre-death expressions of numerous Sand ninjas, driving her inner anger to the absolute extreme.

Chiyo's gaze locked, as if she had thought of something, and she immediately issued an order at the top of her lungs:

"Ninjas skilled in Wind Release, unleash ninjutsu toward the sky!"

Hearing her voice, the Sand ninjas who were still alive instantly understood Chiyo's intent.

As long as the wind blew, Konoha's ninjas wouldn't be able to accurately throw explosive tags onto their heads!

"Wind Release: Vacuum Wave!"

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

"Wind Release: Air-Cutting Wave!"

Gales broke through the restrictions of the explosions, roaring upward toward the sky!

All living Sand ninjas stared with fixed gazes at the Star ninjas flying in the sky, their hearts hoping and roaring, You must succeed!

But

For the safety of this team of Star ninjas responsible for bombing Sunagakure's base, the ninja carrying them on his back was none other than Might Guy, who served as Tobirama Senju's bodyguard!

When Might Guy saw the hundreds of fierce gales roaring up from the ground, a solemn expression appeared on his face, and he softly said to the Star ninja struggling to maintain his balance in front of him, "Thank you for your hard work. Next, leave it to the Blue Beast!"

Then, he jumped straight down from the Star ninja's back.

That Star ninja's expression froze, for he never would have imagined that at such a high altitude, that bowl-cut-haired guy would dare to jump straight down. Wasn't he afraid of dying?

Everyone was shocked by Might Guy's actions.

Right amidst the astonished gazes of the Sand ninjas.

High in midair, an extremely powerful chakra fluctuation erupted from Might Guy's body, and he roared at the top of his lungs:

"Eight Gates Released Formation! Seventh Gate, Gate of Wonder, open!"

With a piercing sonic boom, a blue aura erupted from Might Guy's body!

Veins bulged all over his forehead, the pupils in his eyes had already vanished leaving only whites, and the hair on his head stood straight up, making him look like a god of war!

Might Guy's body was still plummeting at high speed, but at that moment, he placed his hands in front of his chest in a palm shape, and a huge air cannon blasted out from his fists.

Daytime Tiger!

Boom!

With an extremely fast, lethal punch, the high-pressure air cannon compressed into the shape of a tiger. The moment it appeared, its range engulfed several hundred meters and continued to expand!

The giant tiger formed of air met and scattered all the fierce gales head-on, carrying indescribable might as it charged toward the Sunagakure camp down below!

The immense recoil directly bounced Might Guy's falling body back up onto the Star ninja's back.

High in the air, the huge fierce tiger viciously charged downward, its momentum unstoppable!

The Sand ninjas on the ground had been too terrified to move by the sheer intensity when Might Guy opened the Gate of Wonder, and seeing this tiger plunge downward, they nearly collapsed to the ground.

Chiyo moved.

Ever since Might Guy opened the gates, she had known things were turning critical, and when Daytime Tiger appeared, her expression turned solemn as never before.

If this technique wasn't stopped, everyone would die!

"Chikamatsu's Ten Puppets!"

Chiyo rapidly unrolled a scroll, releasing the ten top-tier puppets created by the puppet master ancestor Monzaemon—Chikamatsu's Ten Puppets!

In the aspect of puppetry, Chiyo had already reached the pinnacle of mortals, meaning every single one of her ten fingers could manipulate a puppet. In her youth, she had once conquered a city relying on these ten puppets!

Yet the appearance of Chikamasu's Ten Puppets did not give Chiyo a shred of reassurance. An attack of this magnitude would absolute not be blocked so easily!

She was seen simultaneously controlling all ten puppets to form a formation together, opening the seal formulas on the bodies of the ten puppets to release an enhanced version of the sealing jutsu.

"Ten Treasures Suction Crush!"

Ten fierce tornadoes erupted from the puppets simultaneously, forming a huge wall of wind!

"Quick! Release defensive ninjutsu! You must stop it!"

While desperately sustaining the enormous consumption of the ten puppets, Chiyo roared at those Sand ninjas who had all but lost their fighting spirit.

Hearing Chiyo's loud shout, these bewildered Sand ninjas seemed to have found their backbone, and one by one they desperately released their chakra.

"Earth-Style: Earth-Style Wall!"

"Water-Style: Water Formation Wall!"

The massive Daytime Tiger did not give these Sand ninjas much time to react, crashing head-on into the ground!

Boom!

Boom!

The huge shockwave engulfed the Sand ninjas' base, acting like a bright flash that made the dark night feel as though it had been ignited by the sun!
