Then came a burst of hurried footsteps.
Dressed in a black combat suit and armor, wearing Merchant Ninja Forehead Protector Kamijō Chi, Kamijou Chi strode into the room with a stern face and a File in his hand.
Upon seeing who it was, the middle-aged man wearing the Konoha Forehead Protector who had just snatched the information darkened his face and was about to reprimand this ill-mannered fellow!
Because of this Merchant Ninja on the other side, ever since he learned that Jiraiya had not taken away his power, the middle-aged man has found fault with him in every way!
But before the middle-aged man could utter a rebuke...
He strode up to the fully armed Kamijō Chi and glared coldly at the middle-aged man who was about to cause trouble again.
Before the conflict even began, he handed what he was holding to Jiraiya and said quickly, " Lord Jiraiya, the enemy's movements today are strange. They are very likely planning to launch an attack today."
He stated his guess, and before anyone in the room could react, he continued, "Just now, I received distress calls from those five small towns outside almost simultaneously!"
"There are currently eighty-three Merchant Ninja in the five towns, but because Shiya needs to be stationed there, the number of people in the five towns has been dispersed and now totals no more than thirty!"
"Based on the route taken, the thirty people in these five towns must have been attacked by the Traitor simultaneously fifteen minutes ago."
"Based on their reported figures, within fifteen minutes... thirty people, there's an almost certainty they've all been killed!"
Everyone frowned when they heard Kamijō Chi's first sentence.
Because they don't know what criteria the other party used to make that judgment.
Keep in mind that this is the second time that three ships at the Front Line have been destroyed!
The first time was three days ago. At that time, they all thought the other side would make a move, but they waited in vain, fully armed.
However, upon hearing the new information revealed by Kamijō Chi in the second paragraph, coupled with the destruction of the previous Front Line surveillance points, they realized that...
Everyone in the office immediately realized the seriousness of the problem!
This time... the enemy doesn't seem to be the same as last time.
They already knew roughly how many opposition figures, known as "Rat," existed within the Merchant Ninja.
But almost all of these people were born on such islands!
The mice were so focused on hiding that they were quite difficult to find for a while.
But this time the mice made a move, and a large-scale one at that!
If such a commotion were just a show of force, wouldn't it be tantamount to sending the rats to their deaths?
Realizing this, the Young Man version of Jiraiya, immediately took the File handed to him.
The middle-aged man who had previously wanted to reprimand Kamijou was rendered silent by this sudden information!
After carefully examining the document in his hand and verifying its contents, Jiraiya closed the File and looked at everyone in the office, saying in a deep voice, " Utatane Kunio, Sarutobi Bun, Akai Masahiro, Fusamae Ōnishi, Shūei Gyōji."
"At *5!" five people of different ages responded in unison.
Even the middle-aged man who used to act recklessly was now behaving very properly.
In peacetime, they can act arrogantly because of their age, but in wartime, if they disobey orders, they will be executed according to the rules!
This is also why Jiraiya couldn't do anything about this old guy.
Because it can truly shrink and stretch!
"Immediately issue the order: everyone, take your equipment and supplies, and assemble immediately!"
" Utatane Kunio, you first arrange for two prepared squads to go to the high ground to garrison and observe."
"After distributing supplies in Fusamae Ōnishi, the Logistics team must also be fully equipped before heading to the Front Line."
" Shūei Gyōji, you take your men and go replenish supplies, then you'll come with me!"
"Mr. Kamijō Chi, you...!"
After assigning tasks to his subordinates, he planned to have Kamijō Chi also begin gathering his men to prepare for the Front Line.
Jiraiya suddenly realized a problem!
That means the rats, following Kamijō Chi's instructions, have already taken over five towns.
If we let this go unchecked, what if they attack again?
Or what if, during the fight with the Senju, someone suddenly attacks from behind and stabs you in the back?
Although Merchant Ninja's strength was only so-so, the impact of someone coming from behind on morale was quite different!
So when the order was given and the name was called out, he immediately stopped.
Seeing the puzzled look in Kamijō Chi's eyes, Jiraiya and said, " Kamijō Chi- san, immediately gather all the Merchant Ninja who are still capable of fighting."
"This group refers to everyone except the previous group!"
"After they assemble, leave two Middle Unit of sixty men with your combat personnel to defend the city together!"
"Then you'll take the remaining five Middle Unit and come with us to the Front Line."
"As for the remaining half of the Middle Unit's combat personnel, you need to position them on both sides outside the city to keep a close watch on the rear!"
"To prevent those rats from causing trouble or attacking the city during our battle!"
"Remember to make it clear to those left behind that you don't expect them to hold off the rats for long; just ask them to stop the people and relay the message to the Front Line."
"I will arrange for more people to support them based on the changes at the Front Line!"
A series of specific arrangements Jiraiya's mouth one after another.
He tried his best to explain the reasons for the arrangements and the details to the Merchant Ninja Leader.
After he finished speaking...
Having understood his task, Kamijō Chi bowed and said, "Understood, Lord Jiraiya."
"Don't worry, I'll go and make the arrangements right away!"
A clear response was received.
Jiraiya waved to the crowd, signaling them to begin.
"Yes!"
Upon seeing the gesture, everyone quickly bowed and then left the room to get to work!
After everyone in the room had left.
Looking at the empty room, only my own room remained.
Jiraiya frowned, turned around, and looked out the window again.
Looking at the vast expanse that had completely changed its appearance, it resembled a torrential downpour!
And his men, who began their frantic operation through the rain-soaked streets!
For some reason, everyone, including him, felt that the other party would make a move, and detailed arrangements were made afterward.
His heart did not settle down; instead, he became even more uneasy!
On the other side.
On the sea not far from Kisen Island!
When personnel were dispatched to address the eye issue.
The three ships silently set off and moved forward to the location of the surveillance vessels.
Stand at the bow of the middle boat!
After using Wood Release Chakra to control the area, a shelter that could block the rain grew there.
Uka Senju and Inuzuka Furin waited quietly there.
"Woof woof!" The Brown and White creature, which was squatting on the ground, barked twice at its owner and the bad guys before lying back down on the boat.
Having understood the Ninja Dog's meaning, Inuzuka Furin softly translated, "You're back, Uka-kun!"
Upon hearing this, Uka Senju nodded slightly and shifted her gaze from the sky to the front.
The sea has been rough since last night.
After the rain started, a thick fog quickly rose into the sky.
And as the rain intensified, the fog became even thicker.
Nowadays, 100 meters is the limit of vision for the average eye!
Soon after the dog barked.
Two Teams appeared in the distance through the fog, coming into view of everyone on the ship!
Upon seeing the other two teams return, not a single one missing and no one injured!
This brought a smile to Uka Senju's face.
He watched silently as those people returned, but suddenly his Chakra began to fluctuate violently.
Chakra appeared outside Uka Senju's body along the meridians.
They immediately transformed from being attribute-less into Wood Release Chakra according to the caster's will.
And following Uka Senju's feet, they crawled into the boat beneath them.
"Click click click!"
Affected by Wood Release Chakra.
The three ships immediately underwent drastic changes.
Countless branches have grown on their wooden boats, which were originally made of wood.
Then, the three ships were pulled closer together by the intersecting beams and connected!
Furthermore, after connecting the three parts, different changes occurred on both sides, the fore and aft, and the hull of the ship!
The ship's hull, which was originally yellowish, gradually turned into a dark green to black color.
The three masts also disappeared from their original positions and reappeared at the stern of the ship.
They are connected together, and all that is needed is to raise the original sails.
They together form a giant sail that covers the entire rear!
The ship's cabins had also disappeared, and only a small, dark green protrusion reappeared in the center of the connected ship!
Seeing this change, the Wood Release Squadron had seen Wood Release before, Mixed Squadron, composed of the Shinobi Clan from various clans, had seen plenty of things.
So they didn't have any other emotions yet, only curiosity in their eyes.
But the Merchant Ninja on the far left ship...
They had only heard the legends of Wood Release, and had never seen it in person since they were born!
In particular, the organization doesn't possess any powerful Ninjutsu that could cause a major disturbance.
So when the Wood Release was finished modifying the three ships, they quickly recovered from their shock and began to discuss it in hushed tones!
"What kind of Ninjutsu is that?"
"This... this... is this the legendary Wood Release?"
"Can Ninjutsu be used like this?"
"Are these still the original three ships?"
"How come the color has changed too?"
A young man standing on the edge, seeing the color of the ship's hull.
Somewhat curious, I asked the person next to me, but received no answer.
As if possessed, he used his Kunai to poke the dark green hull of the boat.
"Clang!"
The Kunai collided with the hull, producing a sound similar to metal clashing.
Looking at the ship, which had only become a white dot after being hit.
His pupils dilated, and he stared blankly as he raised his hand to examine his Kunai!
Because at that moment, he was thinking, "Could my Kunai be fake?"
Or perhaps this Kunai was not sharpened?
After noticing that the sharpest part of the Kunai had become somewhat bald.
His face immediately lit up with a look of sudden realization; he felt he had found the reason!
He then immediately took out a Kunai from his Ninja Tool Pouch at his waist.
I tested it with my left thumb and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the Kunai.
He channeled his Chakra and thrust his right hand forcefully into the same spot again!
"Bang!"
A slightly dull thud was heard.
In this Shinobi World where even 'force' is believed to be rooted in Newton's philosophy.
He subconsciously let go of the Kunai and started swinging it back and forth!
He used all his strength just now, which caused what appears to be a recoil injury to his wrist after the impact... a recoil injury?
"Clang!"
Just as I realized why there was a counter-vibration.
The young man then saw the kunai he had stabbed into the hull Kunai to his feet!
He stopped swinging his hand, looked at the falling Kunai, and then at the small gash he had just made with all his might.
Finally, I took a look at my right hand!
His pupils widened slightly, and he immediately turned to share the information with his friend.
But as soon as he turned his head, he realized something was wrong.
Why is it so quiet here?
Why are they all looking at me?
After the two questions popped into his mind, he figured out the reason.
He immediately knelt on one knee before the somewhat dark-faced leader and said, "Your subordinate... has done wrong, please punish me, sir!"
My intention was to immediately admit my mistake to avoid punishment.
But when he opened his mouth, he really didn't know what he had done wrong.
Was the mistake in testing the ship's hull rigidity?
Or is it that we shouldn't have tested any of those adults' Wood Release?
Unable to think of anything else to say, he simply stated, "Anyway, I was wrong."
He obediently knelt on the spot, waiting for the adults' punishment!
Actually, many people would like to do what this young man did.
But they weren't so direct; they were testing things in secret.
But before they could even begin, everyone noticed that a silly kid on the far left had already made a move.
So everyone turned their attention to that.
Not many people saw that silly boy's first attack, but almost all the Ninja saw his second attack.
The boy's mark is Chunin, but those who know the true nature of Merchant Ninja understand that it's equivalent to Genin.
But even a Genin's full strength and Kunai couldn't keep him standing?
Based on this and the depth of the opening in the hull.
They all had a certain understanding of the condition of the ship after it had been modified with Wood Release techniques!
At the bow of the ship in the middle, Inuzuka Furin witnessed the entire scene.
When they heard the young man's reasons for pleading for leniency...
Her signature smiling eyes then appeared on her face.
Looking down at the silent, dark-faced Merchant Ninja Leader.
After thinking for a moment, she quietly reached out and tugged at the hem of Uka's clothes.
The Furin ' movements made Uka Senju understand her meaning.
So he smiled and said, "Mr. Masamae Kamijō, it's nothing, it's nothing."
"Come here, let's talk about the arrangements for later!"
Hearing the voice beside him, Kamijou Masama, who had been unsure of what to do, Masamae Kamijō put away his dark expression.
He nodded to Uka, then turned to his subordinate on the ground and snapped, "Disgraceful piece of trash, get out of here!"
His subordinates' actions were actually what he wanted to do as well.
From this perspective, he wasn't angry with this subordinate at all.
But this thing made such a loud noise that everyone saw it!
This left him momentarily at a loss as to what to do!
If it's according to one's own wishes.
If the guard is one of their own, then there's absolutely nothing wrong with him.
But now that he's living under someone else's roof, his subordinates' actions clearly show they don't trust Wood Release!
What if Wood Release is unhappy with this lenient treatment?
But if I punish them too harshly, I won't want to do it myself!
After all, these are genuine, loyal core members.
Fortunately, someone came to the rescue, and after reprimanding his subordinates...
He quietly expressed his gratitude to the girl who had been following Wood Release!
Upon hearing that there was no departure, they were only scolded by the leader.
The Young Man Merchant Ninja quickly lowered his head again and retreated back into the crowd.
Uka Senju didn't pay any attention to the Young Man's actions.
Was it his own idea, or was he being instructed by someone?
But since those weren't his subordinates, he just stood by and watched his client have his fun.
Only when the Furin moved did he speak up to defuse the situation and give the client a way out!
Therefore, after the steps were given, Uka Senju ignored them.
Instead, he turned and continued to observe the changes in the sky!
Until the key players walked up behind him.
Looking at the distant sky, Uka Senju instructed, "Later, give the order that after entering the arena, do not rush to disembark."
"Wait until the wooden planks around you burst open before you begin!"
"Yes, sir!" the officials replied in unison.
The other Ninja, who were also listening intently, nodded without saying a word.
"Later, have the ordinary people go to the house in the middle, hide inside the ship, and tie themselves to their positions!"
"If anyone dies or gets injured this time, we won't have time to treat them!"
"Yes, sir, I will make the arrangements shortly!" Kenchū Senju, who was in charge of miscellaneous tasks on the ship, replied.
The impact will indeed be great; even Ninja might not be able to withstand it.
These ordinary people made arrangements in advance in case any further problems arose.
During the battle, the medical-nin won't have the energy to deal with them!
As the sky grew darker in the distance, Uka Senju's voice continued, "Remember to have those people teach the Logistics and Medical Treatment Team how to hoist the sails."
"During the operation, the Logistics and Medical Treatment Team will hoist the sails and hide inside the ship!"
"Give instructions that if anyone is seriously wounded during the battle, they should be sent back to the hull to recuperate."
"I specifically reinforced that room. It can be opened from the inside, and even Jonin!"
His initial plan was to leave these people and ordinary people behind.
But then I thought, it's better to keep it than to leave it behind.
These Logistics and Medical Treatment personnel of the Shinobi Clan are not entirely without combat capabilities!
Bring it with you; it might come in handy in case of emergency.
Furthermore, providing immediate medical treatment can also have a positive effect on the battle situation!
Upon hearing their arrangements, the Logistics squad leader and the Medical Treatment Team immediately bowed and replied, "Yes, sir!"
Having made the arrangements, Uka Senju ignored the people behind her.
Instead, they continued to intently observe the changes in the sky!
This stop lasted for half an hour.
Until the torrential rains from the outside world triggered another evolution.
It turned into an opening in the sky, from which water poured down!
As Uka Senju extended her right hand to the right, she shouted, "Everyone, get ready! We'll begin in five minutes!"
"Yes!" everyone responded in unison.
However, the Logistics captain, upon seeing the actions ahead...
He pulled out a large Scroll, about one meter long and over forty centimeters in diameter, from his Ninja Tool Pouch.
Then he stepped forward and placed the item in Uka Senju's hand!
They've caught something and know what it is!
Uka Senju held the Scroll in her right hand and leaned it against her waist.
Two vines sprouted from his waist, securing the large Scroll horizontally.
I got what I wanted.
With the help of her internal Chakra, Uka Senju was able to...
He leaped forward, jumping more than ten meters into the air.
"Bang!"
It has just risen to its highest point under the influence of force.
A thin blue film then formed around him, keeping the rain out.
Suddenly, two wooden wings, much larger than usual, appeared on their backs!
Upon seeing this, those who knew the plan bowed slightly in respect.
But Kamijō Chi, who was completely unaware of the situation, was stunned and stood there dumbfounded!
He stared at the figure hovering in mid-air.
For a moment, I had no idea what was going on!
Why can Wood Release allow one to fly?
Why would I jump out using Wood Release if the battle starts in five minutes?
I had planned to stick close to this person using Wood Release, but how am I supposed to keep up if this guy can fly?
Questions kept surfacing in my mind, but the moment had come.
He was unable to ask any more questions!
Once you're on board, there's no chance to get off.
Now we have no choice but to stick to this one path!
Thinking of this, he followed the example of everyone else and began to bow.
But before he could bend down, he heard the boy's voice again amidst the deafening sound of rain ahead.
"Gentlemen, see you on the battlefield!"
Upon hearing this, the Ninja on the armor immediately responded, "Sir, see you on the battlefield!"
Without the aid of Chakra, they had no idea whether their answers would reach the adults' ears.
But when he looked up, the figure in the air had already disappeared into the distance.
In just a few blinks, the white-haired figure could no longer be easily observed within the water curtain that replaced the thick fog!
He left behind a message.
Uka Senju manipulated her wings, flashing as she quickly moved towards the small island ahead.
Only then did he understand why birds don't move much on rainy days!
Although he wasn't afraid of his feathers getting wet, the rain was still heavy.
He discovered that the energy expenditure of flying at this time was almost one-third greater than usual!
Small wings can't carry you in this kind of weather, but large wings will encounter more resistance in this kind of weather.
Fortunately, his surname is Senju, and the arrow is already on the bowstring and must be released!
So, able to withstand the strain, he quickly flew to the vicinity of that small island!
The view was slightly better from above.
After circling twice in the air, he had already clearly seen the arrangement below!
Looking at the Konoha Ninja and Merchant Ninja who had already set up many tents some distance from the water's edge.
Uka Senju reached his right hand to his waist, and a 'iron ball' weighing over fifty pounds appeared in his hand.
After channeling a little Chakra into it, he found the right spot and then released his grip!
Watching the giant toy fall freely, he felt as if he had found a bit of the feeling of flying First Shinobi World War plane and dropping bombs.
There's no way around it; we've never played like this before.
So even if he had already considered lead time and calculated the descent trajectory.
The iron ball still deviated slightly from its intended trajectory!
However, this time his approach wasn't to play one bead at a time.
So this situation is actually harmless!
Below.
Personnel were positioned on the tops of both cliffs to keep watch over the distant area.
Apart from the top, the ground is the real battlefield chosen by the main force.
To prevent the enemy from using the cliffs on both sides.
However, it is also necessary to prevent the enemy from using Water Release.
Therefore, Jiraiya and his men could only deploy their formation at a certain distance from both sides!
It should be placed here instead of further behind the cliff.
Jiraiya felt that if they moved too far inward, the enemy would really not come in from the front!
If they could think of avoiding the cliff to prevent the enemy from using it, then the enemy isn't stupid either; they would have thought of that too!
Therefore, in order to entice the enemy to engage in a frontal assault, they had no choice but to abandon the interior and place their forces on the outside.
After Uka Senju threw the iron ball from the sky.
Those at the back of the formation are definitely inside the large tents.
The group was originally debating the best Ninjutsu combinations to use when the enemy arrived.
Jiraiya his white hair, immediately raised his head and looked up at the sky.
Unfortunately, he forgot where he was.
Upon seeing a piece of white cloth, he immediately drew a Kunai from his sleeve.
He slashed directly at the back.
"Splash!"
The sound of cloth being torn could be heard.
Jiraiya dashed out through that opening!
The commotion startled everyone inside the tent.
But then several Jonin got up one after another and rushed out through that opening.
The actions of these adults left the rest of us quite confused.
But they knew one thing: one person's eccentricity might be truly extraordinary.
If that's the case, then there must be something wrong!
Unaware of what was happening above, the people in the sky rushed out of their tents one after another!
When they came out, they found that the people who had come out earlier were nowhere to be seen.
"Where is it?!"
"It's just that the Commoners Company Commander Akai Masahiro, Special Jōnin, pointed to the rocky cliff behind him and shouted."
His position made him look in that direction first.
This made him the first among the crowd to spot the figures of the adults!
Following his voice, the others looked in the direction Qi was pointing.
The six adults who had left earlier were seen rushing upwards along the rocky cliff, empowered by Chakra.
Are there enemies up there?
Because of this thought, they quickly looked up and observed!
The rain was so heavy and dense that they had to stop and wipe the water off every time they saw it.
However, there is strength in numbers.
In just a few breaths, they could see clearly what was in the sky!
A big bird?
Not many, but that looks like a person!
Something fell down?
Round?
What could that be?
Although no one knew what was falling from the sky.
They also had many questions in their minds, but at this moment, they were above them.
Someone threw something!
That's definitely not a good thing!
The remaining people immediately started shouting.
Most of the people who were resting inside the tents were called out!
"Warning! Warning! The enemy is in the air!"
"Come out quickly, the enemy is coming!"
"Watch out for the sky! Watch out for the sky!"
"Prepare your defensive Ninjutsu! Watch out for the sky!"
"...!"
The group, who were originally on duty, were all sheltering from the rain inside the tents.
Upon hearing the sound, they immediately grabbed their weapons and rushed out!
Then, under the guidance of the adults, everyone tried to observe the movements in the sky!
On the other side!
I sensed something falling from the sky.
Jiraiya, Jiraiya was discussing tactics with everyone, suddenly rushed out of the tent!
Unfortunately, today's weather caused many of their battles to lose their effectiveness.
But they couldn't just not fight, so they internally revised the negotiations!
But before anything was decided, this unexpected event occurred!
Jiraiya was the first to observe the iron ball and the person in the sky.
He immediately guessed that the enemy was in the sky.
So he quickly circulated his Chakra and ran backward.
Since it couldn't fly, he had no choice but to retreat as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, it's definitely not a good iron ball; its interception effect wouldn't be good, let alone be.
He had no way to deal with enemies in the sky!
"Clap clap clap clap clap!"
Chakra empowered his body, enveloping the specially made sandals, allowing them to adhere to the rocky cliff!
Fully armed Jiraiya charged up the almost vertical cliff in a manner that could have opened Newton's coffin!
They ignored the people who were on guard duty at the cliff and came to pay their respects after hearing the commotion.
After climbing up, Jiraiya looked towards the sky, away from the obstruction of the falling cliff.
There was also an iron ball about twenty meters long, which he used as Wind Release Ninjutsu that he had already prepared hand seals for!
Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere
"Whew!"
The exhalation motion sent the Chakra that was expelled into the air shooting out like bullets.
Not far from Jiraiya's mouth, they immediately expanded into several invisible Wind Release light waves that flew towards the iron ball, leaving long trails in the rainy sky!
There were still two or three hundred meters of air above the top of the cliff.
The Wood Release wings flapped intermittently, hovering in place.
One minute had passed in the five minutes that Uka Senju had silently counted.
Looking at the several people rushing up the rocky cliff one after another, and Jiraiya had already used Ninjutsu.
He silently counted the time in his mind, while placing his right fist in the palm of his left hand to form a Dog Seal).
Under the connection of Chakra from a mysterious force.
Uka Senju's actions caused a change in the iron ball, which was about to be hit by Ninjutsu, several hundred meters away.
"Boom!"
A burst of Kakkō erupted in the darkness, followed by a massive explosion.
The sound rang out, audible to everyone nearby on this rainy day!
This group of people rushed up Jiraiya.
They were all very strong and were the first to react.
They immediately deployed their respective defensive measures.
Earth Release · Earth Style Wall
Water Release · Water Formation Wall
Earth Release: Subterranean Voyage
Substitution Technique
Ninja Art: Wild Lion's Mane Technique
Upon seeing the iron ball move, Jiraiya immediately created afterimages with both hands, forming this functional Ninjutsu he had developed.
It's a technique that accelerates hair growth, makes it longer and harder, and then manipulates it.
It's a technique that can be used for both offense and defense!
His white hair completely enveloped him from front to back.
Even the shrapnel that scattered after the explosion couldn't create a single hole!
The Jonin's reactions were quick enough, or rather, their defensive and evasive techniques were effective enough.
They all withstood the effects of the explosion completely.
But those who originally guarded this cliff were already so lucky!
They had heard footsteps below, so even the two people on duty inside the tent got up to check the situation.
A small team of three, during the explosion.
Only one lucky guy escaped by Jonin the Jonin who used Earth Style Wall.
The remaining two were riddled with bullet holes by the scattered shrapnel!
It wasn't that the two didn't try to dodge; rather, they couldn't dodge even if they tried!
One of the victims managed to use Substitution Technique at the crucial moment.
But the spot where that guy had set up his stand-in was near that rest tent.
That area happened to be within the affected zone as well!
So, just as the squad leader's stunt double appeared, a blast of shrapnel took his life.
In the sky.
Control the iron ball to explode.
Uka Senju began to move.
When the altitude has dropped to a location he deems suitable.
He surprisingly started forming hand seals!
Water Release: Water Fang Bullet
This is a technique that fires a large amount of water from the palm of the hand.
It only has a B-level difficulty and power!
However, with the help of today's heavy rain, this technique directly demonstrated capabilities approaching A-level.
whoosh--
whoosh--
whoosh--
Dozens of water jets shot out from Uka Senju's palms in succession.
He didn't focus on any one person in particular, but instead gave each Jonin a few shots.
The reason I arrived five minutes early was besides what I was going to do later.
Another thing Uka Senju needs to do is to keep the enemy Jonin tied up here as much as possible!
He is a flying Ninjutsu, Senju Ninja in the three elemental jutsu of wood, earth, and water.
For Ninja today, given the current situation, their behavior is somewhat excessively shameless!
This is also the source of his confidence in going solo here!
Having just blocked shrapnel from the massive lightning bolt, the Jonin hadn't even had time to assess the situation.
The sound and noise of the Ninjutsu falling from above reached them.
Those who felt they could withstand it reinforced their escape Ninjutsu.
Those who reacted quickly dodged to the side!
Jiraiya had just parted a sliver of hair that served as a defensive barrier.
I noticed the noise above me!
defense?
The Wild Lion's Mane Technique can definitely withstand it.
However, if we continue to defend, we will fall into the enemy's rhythm.
So he directly manipulated his white hair to continue growing, aiming it at the water gun falling from the sky.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Dozens of water jets hit the earthen wall, leaving only a few small dents.
However, the impacts on the rocky cliffs created numerous holes.
Even those that were shredded by Jiraiya's hair.
As they dissipated, they also left behind a large patch of white hair!
Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique
The old bastard Utatane Kunio Jiraiya talked about.
As a veteran Jonin, his strength has almost stagnated at the moment.
But years of experience are something that cannot be erased!
He immediately hid underground to avoid the first wave.
When he came out, he didn't choose the front side, but instead chose the inner slope of the cliff.
In particular, he paused in the soil for a moment before coming out.
This stop allowed him to dodge the second wave of water gun attacks.
So, after peeking half his body out of the ground, he immediately launched a counterattack!
Chakra flowed from his body into the air, then took advantage of the weather.
This A-rank Ninjutsu has unleashed an even greater level of power!
It freezes faster than standing on the shore of a lake.
In the blink of an eye, a water dragon head appeared in the air.
"Hooray!"
After a seemingly random sound, the water dragon rushed towards Uka Senju in the air!
Wind Release: Vacuum Serial Waves
The old bastard acts based on experience, but Jiraiya acts based on ability.
When the Water Fang Bullet attacked, he chose to collide with them while simultaneously forming Hand Seals.
So, as the water dragon took shape on one side, his Wind Release Ninjutsu was successfully released.
He took a deep breath and then unleashed a series of blade-shaped Wind Blade at the figure in the air!
Water Release: Water Bullet Barrage
Water Release: Water Fang Bullet
Earth Release · Earth Bullet
Jiraiya Large Unit consisted of two Jonin the Large Unit's Guard Unit and Anbu squad leader Shūei Gyōji.
They also used Ninjutsu towards the person in the sky after Jiraiya and Utatane Kunio launched their attack.
And because they were a beat too slow in launching their attack, they were able to coordinate with the attacks of the other two.
For a moment, in the sky...
The area where Uka Senju was located was completely covered by Ninjutsu.
But those two years were not wasted.
The Clan's resources were not wasted.
So after using the Water Fang Bullet, the wings on its back began to flap, carrying it away.
That water dragon was the first to activate, and it was also the Ninjutsu that could most easily catch up to his speed.
So when the water dragon came chasing after him, he used Wood Release: Violent Spear Tree to blast it into water mist in mid-air!
And with the force of the collision, he moved even further away from the cliff.
This meant that he could easily dodge any subsequent attacks that flew right in front of him.
If the caster felt they couldn't catch up while still in the air, they would decisively cut off the subsequent Chakra supply!
After a simple maneuver in mid-air, he dodged the attack.
His Ninjutsu was then used against several people who were trying to leave.
Water Release: Water Fang Bullet
It's still the same simple, long-range Ninjutsu.
Dozens of water jets, propelled by force, rapidly fell from the air to the precise location the caster had aimed for.
The rocky cliff below.
After unleashing a wave of Ninjutsu to force that annoying Wood Release in the air back,
Jiraiya quickly shouted to the people beside him, "You all go back right now, the Wood Release have arrived!"
"Then there's a high chance they'll fight today!"
"You all hurry back and organize the battle!"
His initial purpose in coming up here was to prevent the unidentified object from falling.
Secondly, we need to find out who that guy in the sky is.
And once both objectives are achieved...
He then began to ponder the reason and purpose behind Wood Release's personal visit here alone!
Therefore, the Wood Release attack method that had previously targeted all Jonin came to mind.
Add to that all the intelligence we have today!
He instantly concluded that Senju side would most likely choose to attack today.
Furthermore, he had a basic understanding of the effect of Wood Release here.
Besides holding people back, Wood Release is also used to create chaos during the upcoming battle!
Information about the approximate strength of the Senju side who had arrived had already reached the village.
The reason they believed they could win was because they had enough numbers!
Using numbers to overcome strength.
What I fear most is chaos!
And there are people with Wood Release techniques who stay on top of your head.
The battlefield below was bound to descend into chaos!
Leaving aside the Senju ' signature weapon from the last two years.
It's like someone's just throwing Ninjutsu around overhead; wouldn't the people below be trembling with fear?
They had to rely on numbers to fight the enemy while also dealing with Ninjutsu that could strike them from above at any moment.
Jonin would find this situation troublesome.
Then let alone his current subordinates, the Genin ninja!
Having realized this, he turned to look at the few people who still wanted to speak.
Jiraiya interrupted with a serious expression, ordering, "Everyone, listen up! Battlefield command is now in the hands of that old bastard."
You all must cooperate!
Beside him, he unleashed the Water Dragon Bullet Technique.
Utatane Kunio slowly returned to the top of the cliff.
When the Water Dragon Bullet exploded, he became the most relaxed person in the entire arena once again.
So, while preparing his Ninjutsu, he approached Jiraiya, intending to tell them to leave.
Before he could even speak, Jiraiya interrupted him!
When I heard the little guy's first paragraph of planning and analysis.
He silently began to approve of the white-haired brat to some extent.
Because this guy has such strength at his age.
It's rare, but it's not like there haven't been people like that before!
Or perhaps the Shinobi World isn't lacking in people like that!
But as a commander, he possesses such keen insight and decisiveness at this age!
There are very few people in the Shinobi World who possess both of these qualities at this age.
