"Magnet Release, Gold Dust Wave!"
Man in Black's deep voice came from behind the mask.
The golden sand wave rose from the ground, was two feet high, and rolled towards the direction of the team with a dull low sound.
The edge of the front end of the sand wave is rolled with fine golden particles, which are sore to the eyes when illuminated by the afternoon sun.
Fūma Kojirō's body was ejected backwards at the same moment, and the soles of his shoes plowed a short, deep mark on the ground. His body turned a small half circle in mid-air, and fell to a raised Rock on the side of the road, barely avoiding the edge of the golden sand waves.
The other three Guardian Ninja also responded quickly and spread out in different directions.
Two figures landed on the branches of a dead tree beside the road, and another figure rolled out against the ground and landed behind a dry bush further away.
Chunin, who was traveling at the front, was not so lucky.
Their reaction was half a beat slower than Guardian Ninja. Two of them were caught by the edge of the sand wave, and their entire figures were dragged deep into the gravel by an invisible hand. The gravel quickly gathered and compacted around them, sealing their struggles in a golden hard shell.
Kakuzu smiled bitterly and stood there without struggling.
Golden Sand wrapped around his calves, waist and abdomen, chest, and then the top of his head.
At the last moment before he was completely swallowed up, he sensed the flow of the gravel - not a random stack, not a disorderly burial, but a Chakra control that was precise to every grain of sand, wrapping him and Scorpion in the same golden cocoon.
Mizuno Ichiro let out a short exclamation on the back of the pony.
His horse's hoofs were caught in the waves of sand, and the horse's body fell forward, throwing him out of the saddle and falling straight into the coverage of golden gravel. He sank completely before he even had time to struggle.
Fūma Kojirō stood on the raised piece of Rock, watching this scene with a mix of horror and anger. Protecting the Daimyo messenger was their main mission this time, but he was powerless.
He turned his head suddenly, and his voice exploded in the empty Wasteland, with a burst of rage squeezed out from between his teeth:
"This is Magnet Release! Fourth Kazekage, do you want to provoke a war between the two countries!"
Man in Black's response came faster than his words. He closed his hands again, flipped his fingers, and Chakra exploded, condensing into sharp golden arcs.
"Magnet Release, Gold Dust Shuriken!"
Dozens of Gold Dust Shuriken flew out from the waves of sand, so fast that they only left dozens of blurry golden arcs in the sunlight, sealing the entire body of Fūma Kojirō airtight.
The other three Guardian Ninja had just stood up from their respective positions, and Gold Dust Shuriken had already pressed up from the side and rear at the same time.
The Land of Fire ninja, who had been forced into chaos by Gold Dust Wave, kept wailing and suffered heavy losses!
Before several Chunin could break free from the suppression of the first batch of golden sand, they were pierced through the shoulders, waist and abdomen by the flying Gold Dust Shuriken.
Fūma Kojirō gritted his teeth and bounced off Rock.
His Chakra was surging in his body, and the great mental exhaustion was like a thin film sticking to the surface of his consciousness, which made his reaction half a beat slower than usual, but he still managed to finish Hand Seals.
"Wind Release, Wind Cutter Technique!"
The sharp air blade shot out from his palm, drawing a twisted arc in the air and heading towards those Gold Dust Shuriken.
The moment the wind blade hit the golden sand, it made a dull explosion, and the golden particles scattered in all directions under the impact, like a broken sand wall.
The other three Guardian Ninja launched counterattacks from different directions at the same time.
"Water Release, Water Dragon Bullet!"
"Fire Release, Ash Pile Burning!"
"Earth Release, Earth Dragon Bullet!"
Three attacks rushed towards Man in Black's position from different directions at the same time, followed by Kunai and Shuriken fired by the accompanying Chunin. The densely packed hidden weapons formed a dark curtain in mid-air.
Man in Black stood there without moving. He closed his hands again in front of his chest, and Chakra poured out from his palms, forming a golden barrier around him.
"Magnet Release, Gold Dust Shield!"
Golden gravel rose from the ground and spread quickly in front of him, like a curtain being pulled up.
Water Dragon Bullet hit the sand wall and splashed into a mist of water. Ash Pile Burning's flame was blocked when it hit the golden sand surface. Earth Dragon Bullet shattered into stones of different sizes after hitting the sand wall and rolled to both sides.
Kunai and Shuriken made a fine collision sound when they hit the golden sand surface, and then were wrapped deep into the sand layer by the flow of gravel, without even the cutting edge being exposed.
Fūma Kojirō's breathing became a little faster, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
His eyes were fixed on the golden sand wall in front of Man in Black, his teeth creaked, and he squeezed out a hoarse curse from his throat.
"Magnet Release! Damn it! It's really Fourth Kazekage!"
Before he could finish his words, Man in Black's hands had already closed again. This time, Hand Seals's speed was faster than before, and the space between his fingers flying almost became a blurry afterimage in the sunlight.
The golden gravel on the ground surged up again under his feet, first spreading from the edge of the sand wall to both sides, and then rolled up from all directions toward the center as if being lifted up from the bottom by an invisible hand.
"Magnet Release, Gold Dust Grand Burial!"
Golden gravel surged up from the ground, forming a huge arc, and pressed down overwhelmingly toward the area with the densest crowds.
The top of the sand wave glowed with a dazzling golden light in the sunlight. The speed of falling was not very fast, but the coverage area was enough to make all Land of Fire ninjas still standing on the ground nowhere to hide.
Several Chunin who were closer were swept in by the edge of the sand wave before they had time to adjust their stance. Their bodies struggled in the gravel for only a short moment before being completely swallowed up.
Chunin from other directions tried to escape to both sides, but the coverage of the sand wave was wider than they expected - as soon as someone took two steps, his calf was wrapped in the gravel that followed. The whole person fell forward and was pressed underneath by the falling sand layer.
Fūma Kojirō bounced off Rock at the last moment when the sand wave fell, and turned its body around in mid-air. With the help of Wind Release's counter-pushing force, it forcibly moved a certain distance laterally and fell to the branches of a clump of dead trees further away.
The soles of his shoes made a muffled sound on the tree branch, and his body swayed slightly before he stabilized. His eyes fell on the golden sand surface that was slowly sinking, and his face was as pale as paper.
The sand surface has smoothed out.
Wasteland has a piece of golden sand with a radius of tens of feet. The sand surface glows with fine light under the sunlight. The surface is as clean as if it has been smoothed, without any bulges or depressions.
There was deathly silence all around. The figures of the accompanying companions all disappeared under the golden sand surface, not even the tips of their hair were exposed.
Not even the other three Guardian Ninja could escape.
Tsukuyomi's sequelae are too great! Not even one-third of their strength can be used.
