Land of Fire Eastern battlefield.
The air deep in the jungle is humid and muggy.
The rain had stopped a few days ago, but the ground was still muddy and would leave deep footprints.
The lush canopy covered most of Sky Manipulation, with only a few sparse rays of light falling from the gaps between the branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadow on the ground.
If the western part of Land of Fire is flat grassland, low hills and mountains, then the eastern part is full of towering and dense forests, full of vitality.
It was quiet all around, with the intermittent chirping of birds.
Minato Namikaze stood on the horizontal branch of a big tree, holding a special Kunai in his hand. The handle of Kunai was engraved with the Cursed Technique imprint of Flying Thunder God.
His eyes fell warily on a forest clearing about two hundred meters ahead.
There were several moving figures there.
He has been tracking these ninjas for several days.
The famous Kumogakure A-B Combo, along with two other ninjas from Kumogakure, were increasingly active at the Land of Fire border, as if they were testing the depth of the Konoha defense line.
Minato's mission is simple.
Force them back.
Or at least let them know that Konoha's defense is not that easy to break through.
It's easy to say it's easy, but it's hard to say it's difficult.
The premise is that you must have enough tyrannical strength, and of course Jiraiya handed this task over to his apprentice Minato Namikaze who he trusted enough.
With Flying Thunder God Technique, he can fight and retreat.
Phew! A Shuriken made a sharp whistling sound through the air, flying from the front at an extremely fast speed and at a tricky angle, and hit his neck and throat.
Minato Body Flicker Technique disappeared in place, Shuriken nailed into the tree trunk behind him, boom! It penetrated the thick forest trees.
When he reappeared, he had fallen down from the horizontal branch and was standing on the ground, his eyes calmly fixed on the tree trunk in front of him.
From behind the tree trunk, a dark-skinned young man came out, with Lightning still on his right fist.
"The speed is pretty good. I'm sure he's not an unknown person. Please sign up."
Ai's voice was low, with a hint of hoarseness.
"Hey, Konoha's ninja is so fast that he can't see clearly. He's on the Bagaya Road and the Konoya Road."
Standing behind Ai, Killer B was wearing a white headscarf, shining sunglasses, and holding a short sharp knife in his hand.
Minato looked at Killer B strangely.
The other party is... a singer?
There is no unnecessary explanation. Since they have discovered each other, and the brave one wins when they meet on a narrow road, it is natural to have a fight. Killer B disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Minato Namikaze adjusted his stance slightly, and the Kunai in his hand had been moved to his right hand.
He could feel a blazing Chakra approaching from the side and behind. His movements were very light but not slow, and he deliberately restrained his breath.
Killer B immediately fell from the canopy of the tree, his figure passing by the green branches and leaves. The moment he landed, a sharp knife was thrust out, and the blade glowed with a cold metallic luster.
"Two against one, A-B Combo, don't be careless."
Minato thought secretly in his heart.
Ai moved at the same time, his speed was extremely fast, Lightning exploded on his body, covering him in a layer of blazing white and blue arcs.
The Chakra condensed on the fist was like a layer of red-hot iron shell, reaching directly into Minato's chest.
Minato couldn't retreat because Killer B was behind him. He turned sideways to avoid the punch. Kunai took advantage of the situation and raised it, with the tip of the knife touching Ai's wrist.
Ai closed his fist and changed his moves, sweeping with his left knee.
Minato raised his leg to block, the two forces collided, and the mud beneath his feet was shaken into a crack-like depression.
Killer B cuts in from the flank at this time.
The blade made a subtle scream in the air.
Minato's figure disappeared the moment the blade touched his robe, causing Killer B's eyes to become serious and hot sweat to flow from his forehead.
There was only one Kunai falling to the ground.
Killer B's sword was slashed in the air. He put the sword away vigilantly and quickly turned around, crossing the dagger in front of him.
Unexpectedly, Minato appeared next to him again, and held the Kunai that was still falling.
"So fast!"
In the flash of lightning, the bright Lightning passed by, and Body Flicker Technique appeared in front of Killer B. Ai Dingzhong swept his arm out and hit Lightning Oppression Horizontal Chop!
Boom!
The wind roared on the ground, and the surrounding trees swayed wildly and rustled.
However, even the defensive counterattack at this speed was still useless. Minato Namikaze had turned into golden light and appeared on the tree trunk not far away.
Zheng looked at Ai in surprise.
"That's so fast. Is this the Body Flicker Technique used in Kumogakure secret transmission, Lightning Release Chakra Mode?"
Killer B, who was sweating coldly, was pulled up by Ai and said, "Thank you, big brother."
"The other party is Yellow Flash, who has become famous during this period. You can't be careless."
Killer B nodded heavily.
Even if it was him, the dignified and perfect Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, if he had been stabbed by the opponent just now, he would probably be choked enough to be able to stand up and return to Kumogakure.
"Kumogakure, are you ready to fight Konoha?"
Minato frowned and said.
The opponent's desire to attack made him feel very bad, not because of the threat to him, but because of the fighting attitude...
Sure enough, Kumogakure has an idea for Konoha.
Ai didn't have the thought to answer, so he pressed it again.
This time his attack was even more intensive, with fists pouring out like a torrential rain, and his speed was several minutes faster than before.
He doesn't need to see Minato's movements clearly, he just needs to keep approaching and compress the opponent's movement space.
Killer B was wandering on the flanks, and the sharp knife occasionally poked out from tricky angles, cutting off Minato's possible escape route.
There was almost no warning about their cooperation, and the tacit understanding that had existed for many years no longer required communication.
Minato The goddess threw a large number of special Flying Thunder God Kunai like flowers, and then the figure kept flashing between the two people. Each time it appeared, it was in a different position, like a golden flash that flickered on and off in the space.
There is only a name, but no code. The name Yellow Flash, A-B Combo has been seen, and the pressure is extremely high.
After encountering fatal threats many times, Ai stopped attacking and looked at the leisurely blond figure in front of him, breathing slightly heavier.
"No wonder the whole Shinobi World is saying that if they encounter you, they can give up the mission without any guilt."
Minato smiled slightly, gentle and sunny.
Kunai has taken back Ninja Tool Pouch from his waist.
"It's everyone's fault."
Killer B put away the sharp knife. "Baga Ya Road, Kou Nuo Ya Road, I want to run away."
Ai nodded, turned around, and flew back with Killer B, quickly disappearing deep into the jungle.
Minato thought for a moment, then turned around and headed back in the direction he came from. He had to report to Jiraiya. I'm afraid the war won't be too far away, so he had to be prepared.
His figure moved quickly in the dense forest, but disappeared in the blink of an eye.
As expected, not long after Minato Namikaze went back to report, Land of Fire Eastern Front's war had begun to fully escalate within a few days.
Third Raikage went to the front line in person and led the main force of Kumogakure to advance from the north to the territory of Land of Fire, with great momentum along the way.
His speed is extremely fast, and his defensive ability is unrivaled. The attacks of ordinary ninjas have almost no effect on him.
Even jounin-level ninjutsu can only leave shallow marks on his Lightning Release Armor.
With his fingers crossing the void, Konoha ninjas will fall, unstoppable.
The strongest spear and the strongest shield are all vividly reflected in this Third Raikage.
