" Adamantine Staff Gale!"
At the very front, Hiruzen Sarutobi summoned his Adamantine Staff and combined it with his Wind Release, causing it to continuously release a powerful suction force!
"C1. Brood Nest!"
Didaze and Ōnoki quickly arrived at the front lines with Kari. Seeing the heavy casualties among the Iwagakure ninja, Didaze felt a surge of anger.
Didaze created the Brood Nest directly, and then countless small spiders emerged from it.
The Adamantine Staff sucked all the little spiders to its side, and then the little spiders exploded!
The Adamantine Staff was blasted back into the form of the Enma and fell towards Hiruzen Sarutobi!
" Enma!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was controlling Wind Release, immediately stopped Wind Release and caught Enma.
" Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet!"
Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!
"Combined Ninjutsu: Earth Dragon Flame Flow!"
After setting Enma aside, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately formed Hand Seals and released two Ninjutsu, Ninjutsu were then combined into a more powerful composite Ninjutsu!
The Earth Dragon Flame Flow, carrying powerful scorching heat and mud, swept towards the Brood Nest.
Almost instantly, the Brood Nest was completely destroyed by the Earth Dragon Flame Flow!
" Flying Thunder God!"
At this Minato Namikaze also threw Kunai at Didaze in the sky, trying to teleport to the location of the Kunai and kill Didaze!
"Your opponent is me!"
Kari leaped high and grabbed the Flying Thunder God Kunai, then crushed it right in front of Minato Namikaze!
Minato Namikaze's expression also turned serious.
He had never seen this guy before; he must have been sent by Iwagakure specifically to deal with him.
Through the previous battles, Iwagakure has roughly understood its own strength, so the person they sent is at least as strong as itself. Therefore, it must be extremely vigilant!
Minato Namikaze decisively abandoned the attack on Didaze, since attacking the ground-based Gari was easier than attacking Didaze in the sky.
Moreover, it's clear that Hunter is also a Kage Level powerhouse. If I don't pay attention to him, he'll probably wreak havoc on the battlefield.
" Flying Thunder God!"
Minato Namikaze simultaneously launched three Flying Thunder God Kunai from between his right fingers!
As for the launch points, they were precisely the three locations to the left, center, and right of the hunting party!
" Blast Sword - Explosive Slash!"
Hunting snorted coldly, then picked up the Blast Sword and swept it across the three Kunai!
A violent explosion rang out, and the three Kunai vanished into thin air.
"A wide-range opponent, its attack method is Explosion Release, it doesn't appear to be able to fly, its defense is unknown, but its attack power is extremely strong."
Minato Namikaze probably made an assessment of Kari in his mind.
Then Minato Namikaze took three Kunai in each hand and threw them simultaneously, but this time the range of the throws was all in the air!
"Snort..."
Hunting stared intently at the sky.
" Body Flicker Technique!"
Minato Namikaze wanted the opponent to be focused on the sky!
Minato Namikaze used the Body Flicker Technique to physically rush to Kari's side, wielding Kunai and slashing directly at him!
"When!"
Kari lowered his head and looked at Minato Namikaze with a half-smile.
Do you really think I'm completely unguarded?
"I am," said Shou with a cold laugh.
Just as he was speaking, the Blast Sword exploded instantly!
" Flying Thunder God!"
Minato Namikaze's expression changed, and he instantly teleported to the Flying Thunder God Kunai in the sky.
Then he picked up another Kunai that was thrown from the sky and threw it downwards!
" Rock Clone Technique!"
A Deido figure of himself appeared beside Kari, Deido then transformed into a real person and quickly lunged at the Flying Thunder God Kunai!
Meanwhile, Kari himself was still staring intently at Minato Namikaze!
He had already discerned Minato Namikaze's attack power; he was simply using Kunai to attack.
Such offensive power was negligible to him; even if he stood still and let the opponent hit him, it would be difficult for the opponent to break through his defenses for a while.
After all, Kari trained in close-range Explosion Release. Although his physical strength wasn't as monstrous as Kōdo's, it was still a joke to think that an ordinary Kunai break through his defenses.
"They completely disregard me..."
Minato Namikaze understood what was going on when he saw Kari's expression.
It's not that Kari looks down on Minato Namikaze, it's just that Minato Namikaze's attack method is a bit outrageous.
Who would have thought that someone so fast, whose speed even surpasses that of Kage Level, would use Kunai as an attack?
Kari wasn't really convinced at first, but seeing Minato Namikaze constantly attacking him with Kunai, he had no choice but to believe it.
The opponent is truly a low-attack, squishy character with only movement speed.
"Since that's the case..."
" Hardening Jutsu!"
Hunt's body instantly turned bronze, appearing incredibly hard.
Kari provocatively beckoned to Minato Namikaze.
He then pulled out his Exploding Blade Shibuki, and walked step by step toward the Konoha Ninja.
" Minato Namikaze, if you don't attack soon, I'm going to kill Konoha Ninja..."
Kari's voice was like a messenger from hell, making Minato Namikaze's face turn extremely ugly!
Minato Namikaze switched positions to the Shadow Clone's Kunai and, risking injury, killed the Shadow Clone in one fell swoop!
Then Minato Namikaze launched more than a dozen Kunai, and these Kunai so scattered that they could not be destroyed by a single hunt!
Then Minato Namikaze began to dart quickly among the Kunai, trying to find a weakness in Kari!
"That's more like it! Fight me like a real man!"
Hunti laughed heartily, then plunged the Blast Sword into the ground!
" Blast Sword. Ground Explosion!"
After the hunter plunged his Blast Sword into the ground, he let out a loud shout, and then the ground began to explode with a series of booming sounds!
The sound of explosions was incessant.
Minato Namikaze's dozen or Kunai were all destroyed in this attack, forcing him to flee from the hunter's attack range in a sorry state!
" Minato Namikaze, is that all you've got?"
Kari mocked Minato Namikaze.
This is not just empty talk, but a tactic to disrupt the enemy's mindset.
A ninja needs to be calm and collected. If one side loses their composure during a battle, the outcome becomes obvious when the two sides are evenly matched.
However, Minato Namikaze was not disturbed by Kari's verbal attacks; instead, he became even more calm and composed.
He knew that the other party wanted him to reveal a weakness, so he had to be even more composed and not show any weakness!
While the two were engaged in a psychological battle, Ōnoki and Didaze were also locked in a fierce fight with Hiruzen Sarutobi, Tsunade, and Orochimaru.
Since they were at the Iwagakure headquarters, Didaze couldn't use those extremely powerful Clay Bomb.
If he were to use it, the number of his own people dying would likely exceed the number of people from Konoha who would die in a single attack.
Therefore, Ōnoki and Didaze were temporarily locked in a stalemate with Hiruzen Sarutobi and his two companions.
Didaze could only rapidly manufacture and continuously drop small to medium-sized bombs, a tactic that caused Hiruzen Sarutobi a great deal of trouble.
Meanwhile, due to interference from small and medium-sized bombs, Ōnoki's Dust Release nearly Hiruzen Sarutobi several times.
