Half an hour later, Land of Lightning Valley.
Uchiha The team just crossed a gravel slope when the rock walls on both sides suddenly exploded.
Boom boom boom!
Explosive Tag are connected together, and Kakkō spurts out from the gap in the mountain wall.
Hizashi Hyuga The veins on his forehead popped out and he drank immediately.
"Thirty-seven people on the left and twenty-four on the right. Jonin is a lot!"
Nanami's face darkened.
"Temple The third and fourth teams, form up!"
The eight Uchiha instantly divided into two groups and took their respective positions.
Sharingan is turned on and Chakra is connected.
As soon as Temple Formation was formed, a blue-white Storm Release light burst out from behind the distant rock.
"Storm Release!"
Nanami shouted, "Avoid it!"
The light grazed the shoulder of one Uchiha Chunin and directly penetrated the rock wall behind.
The Chunin's face turned pale, and before he could stand firm, an old Kumogakure Jonin had already attacked from the side.
Lightning Release Chakra wrapped the short knife and pointed the blade straight at his throat.
"Kid, no matter how strong the formation is, you still have to be able to react!"
The Chunin's pupils shrank, and the captain Jonin next to him immediately took over the rhythm.
"Three steps to the left!"
The four people are connected and the flow of Chakra changes instantly.
The Chunin's body moved sideways almost instinctively, and the short knife grazed his neck.
The next second, Fire Release, another Uchiha, had already arrived in front of Kumogakure old Jonin.
Kumogakure Old Jonin's face changed slightly, he raised his knife to split the flames, and took a few steps back.
"What a quick cooperation!"
Before he could stand still, the four Uchiha changed their formation again.
Lightning Release pressed from the left, Fire Release blocked the road from the right, and Sharingan Genjutsu stabbed directly into his consciousness.
Old Jonin bit the tip of his tongue and relied on the pain to force his way out Genjutsu.
But his expression has changed.
Among these four people, only one is truly Jonin.
The remaining three are just Chunin.
But once arrayed, they acted like one person.
Some people are responsible for attack, some are responsible for defense, some are responsible for Genjutsu interference, and some are dedicated to making up for the flaws.
The Chakra of four people were circulating in the formation, and they actually supported the oppression of the Elite Jonin team.
On the other side, Darui stood at a high place, his face getting increasingly ugly.
"It's really troublesome, they are not ordinary combined attack formations."
"Chakra, perception, and even combat intuition, can be transmitted to each other in the formation."
He raised his hand Hand Seals.
"Storm Release·Laser Circus!"
The blue-white laser erupted again, accurately hitting the connection point of Temple Formation.
Nanami's eyes turned cold.
"The third team, take a half step, the formation will continue!"
Four Uchiha move at the same time.
The formation was stretched, but not broken.
Storm Release The light passes through the gap connected by Chakra and is empty.
Darui's pupils shrank.
"Can you even hide from this?"
The next moment, three Kumogakure Elite Jonin jumped down at the same time.
They did not fight independently, but focused on the weak points of Temple's formation.
One person suppresses the enemy head-on with a thunder knife.
One person used Lightning Release to paralyze the ground.
One person threw out a ninja tool with a steel wire and tried to forcefully drag the weakest Chunin in the formation.
At this moment, the pressure on Team Temple skyrocketed.
That Chunin broke into cold sweat on his forehead.
"Captain, I can't hold on here!"
The captain gritted his teeth and growled, "Hold on!"
"If the formation continues, no one will fall!"
Chakra flows wildly among the four people.
The powerful Chakra originally belonging to the captain was poured into Chunin's body along the formation.
Another Uchiha's fire attribute Chakra also merged into it, opening up the meridians numbed by Lightning Release for him.
The Chunin was shaken all over, feeling like his body was being burned and struck by lightning.
But this made his Sharingan spin faster.
The trajectory of the thunder knife that was originally invisible suddenly slowed down.
"I saw it!"
He roared angrily, Kunai cut off the wire with his backhand, and rolled his body to the ground to avoid the thunder knife.
Immediately afterwards, his hands Hand Seals.
"Fire Release·Fire Release: Great Fireball!"
The fireball shot out, a whole circle bigger than his usual size.
Kumogakure Old Jonin slashed the fireball with his knife, but was forced to take half a step back.
"This Chunin's Chakra has become stronger?"
He looked ugly.
"It wasn't this strong just now!"
It's not just him.
Several other Temple teams also experienced the same changes.
Under the pressure of Kumogakure Elite Jonin, Temple Formation runs faster and faster.
Chakra is no longer simply passed.
Instead, it circulates around each person's body and then returns to the formation.
Fire attribute Chakra flushes the thunder attribute meridians.
Lightning Release Chakra stimulates physical reactions.
Yin Release Chakra strengthens the perception of Sharingan.
Yang Release Chakra Repair the hidden damage caused by fatigue.
The greater the pressure, the faster the cycle.
The faster the circulation, the harder the body and Chakra are tempered.
A Uchiha who had been parked at Chunin for many years suddenly roared.
"My Chakra..."
His breath suddenly rose.
The originally chaotic Chakra re-condensed in the body and became thicker and more stable.
The teammates next to me were overjoyed.
"Did you break through?"
The Uchiha was breathing heavily and his eyes were red.
"Jonin."
"I broke through to Jonin!"
Tekka in the distance couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
"Okay!"
"That's how it should be fought!"
"Cloud Ninja These old guys think they are here to consume us."
"The result is helping us sharpen our knives!"
Kumogakure Everyone's expressions changed.
"Battlefield breakthrough?"
"Or break through when being besieged?"
"Uchiha Shrine What exactly is the Monster formation!"
Darui felt his heart sink when he heard this.
He finally understood why Uchiha Ren didn't take action.
The two people stood at the back of the team, like two mountains holding down the formation.
Itachi pressed his hand on the short sword, Mangekyo was not turned on.
Ren didn't even take a step forward.
Nanami couldn't help but look at Ren.
"Master Clan Leader, someone in the third team is injured."
Ren spoke calmly.
"If we don't break the formation, we will continue."
Nanami gritted his teeth.
"Yes."
Itachi glanced at the battlefield and whispered, "Master Clan Leader, the Kumogakure sent this time are all veteran Jonin."
"Hmm."
Ren watched Chakra flow faster and faster among Temple Formation.
"Just right."
"Ordinary Chunin and Special Jonin can no longer push their limits."
"These Kumogakure Elite Jonin came just in time."
Itachi was silent for a moment and nodded.
He understood that Ren was not reluctant to take action.
Instead, he is using the knife Kumogakure to strike for Uchiha Shrine.
The battle lasted for nearly half an hour, and the Kumogakure Elite Jonin team failed to break up Temple Formation.
But they are not ordinary soldiers either.
After several consecutive rounds of killing, more than a dozen wounded appeared in Uchiha Shrine.
But similarly, Cloud Ninja also paid a heavy price.
Two veteran Jonin were severely damaged by Fire Release.
Three Jonin were hit by Sharingan Genjutsu and were dragged away by their companions desperately.
There was also a team of Kumogakure, which was forced back by Temple Formation and was almost wiped out.
Darui gritted his teeth and ordered.
"Withdraw!"
"Everyone withdraw!"
Kumogakure Jonin were not interested in fighting and immediately dispersed into the valley.
Tekka Uchiha was about to lead people in pursuit, but Ren raised his hand.
"Keep going."
"But Lord Clan Leader, they..."
"I say, keep going."
Tekka Shut up the knife immediately.
"Yes!"
Uchiha The team did not stop.
The wounded were helped to the center of the team, and Temple Formation was rotated again.
Uchiha Chunin, who had just broken through, was standing on the flank of the team, his face pale, but his breathing was much steadier than before.
He looked at Ren's back, his voice hoarse.
"Master Clan Leader, I can still fight."
