"No... there's a slight difference."
After careful observation, Ōnoki discovered that Didaze's Dust Release Clay Bomb seemed to be different from his own Dust Release.
He also couldn't understand how Didaze combined the two.
Combining two Kekkei Genkai into one is much more difficult than awakening a single Kekkei Genkai, not to mention that Dust Release is not Kekkei Genkai but Kekkei Tōta!
"What!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi also witnessed the Dust Release Bullet exploding, Dust Release Bullet almost instantly Annihilation the Great Waterfall Technique!
The explosion was completely silent, as if it had been released in an absolutely quiet place.
"Get out of the way!"
Upon seeing the Dust Release Bullet, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately sensed a strong sense of danger and ran to the side!
Meanwhile, Didaze continued to throw out Dust Release Bullet, Dust Release Bullet capable of Annihilation a patch of land if it missed its target.
Meanwhile, Hiruzen Sarutobi was also throwing Ninjutsu from time to time during his escape, trying to Annihilation the Dust Release Bullet with Ninjutsu.
However, he discovered to his dismay that Didaze chose to throw two Dust Release Bullet at once, one of which would explode first, Annihilation his Ninjutsu.
And another one will continue to hurtle towards him.
His use of Ninjutsu against Didaze actually increased the chances of Deidarze being hit!
Hiruzen Sarutobi had no choice but to flee in a sorry state.
Didaze could conjure Dust Release Bullet much faster than Ōnoki could condense Dust Release, Didaze simply started releasing Dust Release Bullet directly at all four of them.
Under Didaze's onslaught, Minato Namikaze was unable to continue the attack with Tsunade and could only flee with Tsunade, hoping to find an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
However, under Didaze's relentless Dust Release Bullet, the four of them couldn't find any opportunity.
Meanwhile, Ōnoki began using Dust Release against Hiruzen Sarutobi Hiruzen Sarutobi the others, putting them in grave danger.
With Dan Katō leading the charge, Konoha was locked in a fierce and protracted battle with Iwagakure.
Under the leadership of Tōshirō Kakkō and others Iwagakure was barely able to hold them off, but Konoha had many clans with Kekkei Genkai, and with their combined efforts, Iwagakure was still suffering a series of defeats.
After all, the cooperation between the Konoha Kekkei Genkai clans is not as simple as 1+1.
" Lord Hokage, shall we retreat?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others were chased and fled in a sorry state by Didaze. Minato Namikaze couldn't help but use the Flying Thunder God to get to Hiruzen Sarutobi's side and ask him something.
"Let's withdraw the troops..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi also realized that Didaze's energy expenditure was not actually that high.
With the power of the Six-Tails 'Chakra, Didaze could create Dust Release Bullet for a full day and night.
However, it was clear that the four of them could not hold out for a full day and night.
Because Ōnoki was still releasing Dust Release nearby, the four of them had to dodge perfectly without making the slightest mistake.
If even the slightest mistake is made, no defensive Ninjutsu will be able to save their lives!
Even with such intense dodging, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't guarantee he wouldn't make a mistake.
If anything goes wrong, his life could very well be in danger!
"Good!"
Minato Namikaze nodded slightly.
He then instantly Body Flicker Technique to Dan Katō's side.
He could have escaped this place long ago, but he didn't use Flying Thunder God in order to relieve the pressure on Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others, and instead kept using Body Flicker Technique to evade.
"Brother Duan, the Lord Hokage has ordered a withdrawal!"
Minato Namikaze said to Dan Katō.
"I am Inoichi, and the break is there!"
" Dan Katō " pointed to the spirit Dan Katō to his left rear.
The spirit Dan Katō is currently fighting against Tōshirō, Mahiru, Kakkō Kagami.
Even with three Elite Jonin fighting together, they could only manage a draw against Dan Katō, and were even slightly at a disadvantage.
At this point, Dan Katō had mastered the Spirit Transformation Technique to perfection; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he had reached the threshold of the Kage Level.
Minato Namikaze, then used Body Flicker Technique to appear beside the spirit Dan Katō and quickly relayed the news of the withdrawal.
Dan Katō nodded.
"Withdraw troops!"
Konoha then began an orderly withdrawal, with Dan Katō and members of the Kekkei Genkai family staying behind to cover the rear, while the others evacuated first.
"Hmph! Trying to escape?"
Meanwhile, Didaze, on another battlefield, also witnessed this scene and sneered inwardly.
C2: Dust Release Giant Dragon!
Didaze channeled a massive amount of Dust Release Chakra, then conjured Giant Dragon and hurled it directly at the retreating Konoha army!
" Shadow Clone Technique!"
" Flying Thunder God: Guiding Thunder!"
Minato Namikaze quickly created a clone, which then intercepted Didaze's Giant Dragon in the sky!
In that case, if Didaze explodes, it will be in the sky; if it doesn't explode, Minato Namikaze can use a mine to move it away.
"What a genius..."
Even Hiruzen Sarutobi Minato Namikaze n't help but admire Minato Namikaze's talent.
They were helpless against the Clay Bomb, but a new generation had a solution.
He is also a year younger Didaze.
" Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"
Lightning Release: Lightning Strike!
" Combination Ninjutsu: Lightning Waterfall Technique!"
Seeing that Didaze was still trying to create Clay Bomb, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately incorporated his Lightning Release into his Water Release.
The massive waterfall, crackling with electricity, hurtled towards Didaze, forcing Didaze to abandon his attack!
" C3 No. 18!"
Didaze conjured up Number 18, which collided with the Lightning Waterfall Technique, instantly turning the Lightning Waterfall Technique into a pool of water.
Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!
" Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
" Combination Ninjutsu: Wind Fire Dragon Bullet!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi continued to unleash composite Ninjutsu at Didaze in the sky. Didaze, left with no other option, had to abandon his pursuit and instead continued to release Dust Release Bullet.
"Old man, go!"
However, while Didaze was held back by Hiruzen Sarutobi, Ōnoki was not!
Didaze directly gestured for Ōnoki to go.
"Um!"
Ōnoki nodded, then flew towards the Konoha army!
"Not good!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately understood what Ōnoki was planning and wanted to stop Ōnoki.
Didaze immediately sped up the production speed, increasing it from five per second to ten per second!
At that speed, the three of them simply didn't have time to support the Konoha Ninja!
" The Earth Release: Golem Technique!"
After arriving Konoha Ōnoki, Onoki Hand Seals and summoned dozens of rock giants!
The rock giant began wreaking havoc within the Konoha army!
Ōnoki knew that Minato Namikaze could absorb ranged Ninjutsu, but so what?
He's not just good at ranged Ninjutsu; his Earth Release: Golem Technique can still wreak havoc in the Konoha army!
The Akimichi Clan ninjas immediately came to their aid upon seeing the large number of rock giants appearing behind them, but the rock giants summoned by Ōnoki were not so easily destroyed.
It took several members of the Akimichi Clan working together to destroy a single rock giant.
Even if the Rock Giant is shattered, Ōnoki can use Chakra to manipulate it to quickly absorb nearby stones and revive.
The rock giant wreaked havoc among the Konoha army, and soon one-tenth of the Konoha Ninja had been killed or wounded!
This was even with the help of the Akimichi Clan. If the Akimichi Clan had continued to cover the rear, more than half of them would have died.
