Iwagakure was clearly prepared for this attack and remained calm, quickly gathering its forces to surround the attackers.
Ding ding ding...
The Triple-Bladed Scythe swept across the area, deflecting the Shuriken fired from all sides.
Hidan's Taijutsu is exceptional, and coupled with his fearlessness in the face of injury, his reckless fighting style even makes the usually ruthless Iwagakure Ninja hesitate.
They had never seen someone covered in Shuriken and still able to fight as if nothing had happened.
Earth Release: Rock Pillar Prison
Click...
The newly formed rock cell was cut in half by Hidan's sword; his physical strength was immense, and the small earthen cell couldn't contain him.
Earth Release: Rock Pillar Spear
Puff puff puff...
A crisscrossing array of rock spears shot out from the ground, impaling Hidan and leaving him covered in blood.
"Ouch... it hurts! More! More, hahaha..."
Hidan laughed as he dipped his finger in his own blood and drew a sacrificial circle on the spot, then stuck out his tongue and licked the blood off the Triple-Bladed Scythe.
I don't know how many people have been injured in the fight so far.
The Iwagakure Ninja responsible for the attack were stunned. They had never seen anything so bizarre. Explosive Tag couldn't kill them, and ordinary Ninjutsu seemed to be ineffective as well.
"What's wrong with this guy?"
"It seems impossible to kill..."
"Could that rumor be true? That there's an immortal ninja at the northern fortress of Kusagakure —it's him."
"Quickly, don't get close to him. Use Kunai deplete his Chakra."
Someone immediately came up with this idea: if they could exhaust Chakra, they could surely kill Hidan.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Kunai and Shuriken flew everywhere, and Hidan was instantly riddled with holes.
"Ahhhhhh... it hurts so much..."
Then everyone noticed that Hidan was just crying out in pain and wasn't dying, while several of his companions around him were falling down one after another.
"Ah... how could I..."
"Ugh... my heart..."
" Idai, Yūji, Takuma, you guys... how could this happen?!"
"What on earth is going on? Something's wrong! Stop! Stop! Thud..."
Earth Release: Earth Split Palm
Rumble...
The ground churned, and a massive crack rapidly spread to Hidan's feet, completely destroying the sacrificial array.
"Huh? They found out so quickly, really." Hidan said disappointedly, he was in the middle of a great moment.
A majestic man wearing a red turban came in front of everyone, with the word "rock" tattooed in red on his bare right arm.
"Captain Matsumoto, this guy is practically unkillable, and he's very strange..."
Matsumoto Iwa looked at Hidan and said, "You're the immortal ninja hired by Kusagakure, aren't you? I've heard of you. If I'm not mistaken, you should have some companions."
"Hahaha... you guessed right! Your reward is death! Do it!!"
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this. They turned around and saw a thousand-armed Thousand-Armed Kannon that had appeared not far away, holding a silver-white moon in front of her chest.
Click...
The moon split open, and a giant white wolf roared out, its blood-red maw opening as it pounced towards the group.
"Void Realm - Greedy Wolf "
roar!!
Like a category 12 typhoon sweeping across, it engulfed the entire Iwagakure Hidan, including Hidan, wiping them out in one blow. Most of the camp was wiped out as if erased by an eraser, leaving only desolation.
On the other side, the Iwagakure Ninja who were outside the attack range were terrified and, no longer caring about anything else, turned and scattered to escape.
Bang!
The ground cracked open, Matsumoto Iwa jumped out from underground, glancing at the state of the camp with a face full of rage.
"You bastard, Earth Release: Earth Binding Core!"
Two huge rocks suddenly rose up on either side of where Aoki Tsuki stood, converging towards the middle.
" Body Flicker Technique "
With a flash of lightning, he leaped out of the attack range before the two giant rocks closed in, appearing in front of Matsumoto Iwa.
A stab was thrust out.
clang!
The blade crackled with lightning, but it was blocked by the tough skin, producing a metallic clang.
"This is Steel Rock Technique that can defend against Lightning Release: Thrust. I knew you would come to assassinate me, Amegakure ninja, die!"
Earth Release: Earth Fang Rising Attack
Centered on Matsumoto Iwa, fang-like rock spikes suddenly pierce out from all eight directions of the ground, layer upon layer, looking like a giant Himawari laden with fruit from the air.
Using oneself as bait, one drags the enemy into a hellish abyss.
" Vajra Dharma Lotus "
Aoki Tsuki clasped his hands together, and a golden lotus platform formed from Chakra appeared around him.
BOOM BOOM BOOM...!!
The relentless bombardment from all directions caused countless cracks to appear on the lotus platform, and the attack finally ceased at a certain moment.
"It actually blocked it?!"
A bad feeling rose in Matsumoto Iwa's heart; this was his trump card, and it had failed.
Just as I was thinking this, I suddenly felt a shadow fall over me. When I looked up, I saw a huge golden hand descending from the sky.
"Ah...!"
Rumble...
The dense rock spikes shattered with a crash, and a giant handprint was deeply embedded in the earth, its crimson color spreading across the palm.
Matsumoto Iwa was smashed into a pulp.
"You actually forced me to use all my trump cards to kill you; you have reason to be proud."
Of all the people he's assassinated, this guy is the toughest.
Hidan, clutching his shoulder, staggered over, looking displeased.
He complained, "Hey, could you be a little gentler next time? My arm was knocked off, and I had to look all over to find it."
The so-called Plan B is to have him act as bait, gather the enemies together, and then use a powerful move to wipe them out, including him.
He's not going to die anyway.
"Okay, I understand. Mission accomplished. Let's go." Aoki Tsuki turned and headed towards the Land of Rain.
"Hi...!"
Hidan was very reluctant; he missed his life in Kusagakure.
Not long after the two left, an aloe vera-like being emerged from the ground. Jue appeared, looking at the giant palm print in front of him with surprise and uncertainty.
White Zetsu said, "Oh dear, we've discovered new information again."
"I told you long ago, this guy was definitely hiding something, and it seems I was right," Black Zetsu replied.
"Hurry up, someone's coming..."
"Who?"
"It looks like Kisame and Itachi."
"Hehe... just as I expected, let's go."
No sooner had Zetsu left than Itachi and Kisame appeared in the arena, looking around to check the situation.
"That's it. Judging from the attack marks and scale, it should be Azure Dragon's ' Greedy Wolf ' technique. I have experienced its power firsthand."
At this moment, Itachi stood at the edge of the pit, staring silently at the handprint.
Kisame arrived at that moment, laughing and saying, "Hehe... it seems the battle is exceptionally fierce."
" The Iwagakure forces have suffered so many losses that they should be unable to launch any further military operations against the Land of Rain in the short term. Let's withdraw as well."
"Yeah, it's good to find a place to rest for a while. It's been raining Tenten, it's unbearable."
The two left quickly.
In the following period, Hidan was assigned to clear out the Iwagakure squads that had penetrated deep into the Land of Rain, allowing him to move freely.
Aoki Tsuki returned to the Amegakure base to oversee defense. Iwagakure suffered heavy casualties in the sneak attack, and it remains to be seen what actions they will take next.
Upon receiving the information, Iwagakure) immediately responded.
The Amegakure was unusually quiet under the cover of night. A strike team belonging to Iwagakure infiltrated the village by passing through numerous checkpoints.
Amegakure disregarded protocol by Decapitation their commander; why couldn't they do the same to Amegakure's stronghold?
Although the chances of success are slim, the attitude must be made clear to Hanzō Hanzo a lesson and prevent him from doing this again.
This assault team was equipped with specialized demolition personnel; their purpose was to cause sabotage.
Inside an abandoned house, the leader, Taiseki, was assigning tasks.
"Next, I'll lead a group to assassinate Hanzō. The rest of you are free to roam the village. Make sure you teach the Amegakure people a lesson they won't forget."
"Wait, Captain, someone's coming... Oh no, we're surrounded!"
"How is that possible?!"
Taiseki didn't believe it. They had been very careful to avoid everyone; how had the other party found out?
Everyone quickly got up and looked out the window to see that the outside was indeed crowded with people, Explosive Tag and poison gas bombs were being thrown into the house as if they were free.
Boom boom boom...
After a barrage of bombing, the house collapsed, burying the people inside.
Bang!
A disheveled figure emerged from the ruins; Captain Taiseki had survived thanks to his formidable strength.
He was poisoned and knew he wouldn't survive, but even in his dying moments, he wanted to take a few people with him.
"Cough cough... Bastards, I'll make you pay with your lives."
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
The dense barrage of poisoned Senbon clanged and jingled as they struck the Taiseki's body.
Water Release: Black Rain Technique
They poured a flammable mixture of oil and water over Captain Taiseki, and then someone immediately used Fire Release technique to assist.
Fire Release: Starfire Technique
He spews out a cluster of sparks the size of a fist from his mouth. This technique has little offensive power, but its advantage lies in its wide coverage area, which is sufficient for starting a fire.
The oil on Taiseki's body immediately burst into flames, turning him into a human torch.
"Ah...!!"
Captain Taiseki, with unwavering resolve, charged madly into the crowd, engulfed in flames, only to be met with a cloud of poisonous gas.
The entire Amegakure Guard wore gas masks and gas-emitting devices, specifically designed to deal with such tough opponents.
Over the years, there has never been a shortage of enemies infiltrating Amegakure to gather intelligence, and they have long accumulated a wealth of experience in dealing with such situations.
Captain Taiseki charged around but couldn't find an opponent, and eventually fell down unwillingly, as no one was willing to fight him one-on-one.
Everyone avoided him, waiting for him to die from the poison.
"This guy must be the one who lasted the longest among all the infiltrators this year."
"The people of Iwagakure are truly ruthless. They can still fight even burned like that... I could never do that."
"I can't do it either..."
"I can't do that either, amazing... amazing."
Captain Taiseki's bravery earned him the admiration of all the Amegakure Guard.
