A figure actively pressing forward.
"Whoosh!"
The arm that swung suddenly.
"Buzz!"
The icy aura that followed spread out, causing a sudden drop in temperature—a chilling sensation that ordinary people could not bear.
The overwhelming force of the attack.
"Whoosh!"
The Root Jonin out with one hand and drew a special sharp, curved blade from his waist. Its sharp edge flashed as he met Qi's cold blade head-on without hesitation.
"Clang!"
With a loud bang, the sparks of a plan ignited.
The rising chill seemed to want to freeze the ice crystals that were about to appear, but at that moment, the curved blade emitted a faint halo of Chakra.
"Bang!"
"Snap!"
The force that surged back failed to freeze his opponent's weapon this time, just as it had before. Upon seeing the unique Chakra aura, Qi's pupils constricted sharply.
" Chakra weapon!"
While not as powerful as special weapons like the Kusanagi Sword or the Seven Swords of the Mist Ninja, Chakra weapons are still made using special materials, and their strength is undoubtedly far superior to ordinary ninja tools!
More importantly, this weapon can contain the user's Chakra, unleashing even greater power.
Qi's Ice Release technique is not enough to easily freeze such a weapon at this stage. The Chakra that was pushed back from the weapon caused Qi's arm to suddenly tremble!
A figure taking a small step back.
It's quite obvious.
The power of this Jonin on the other side is enough to overwhelm Qi.
In this confrontation where he clearly held a slight advantage, the Root Jonin his body forward further, unleashing a powerful force from the angle of his downward lean.
For a time, Qi found it impossible to extricate himself.
Then, the Root Chunin who launched the attack simultaneously.
With a flick of his wrist, he grasped a sharp Kunai in his palm, its edge gleaming with a fierce light.
"Whoosh!"
Move around to Qi's left side.
The angle at which it was suddenly thrust in.
" Water Release: Water Bullet Technique!"
Qi, however, took the initiative, One-Handed Hand Seals, and completed the Water Release technique seal in less than three seconds.
Accompanied by a soft shout.
"Call out!"
"Call out!"
"Call out!"
In the area surrounding Qi, more than a dozen tiny but sharp water droplets rapidly condensed and, after a slight tremor, swiftly attacked the vital points of the two Root members.
A powerful attack at close range.
"!?"
It was difficult to react effectively in a short time. The Root Chunin launched the flanking attack changed his expression and could only barely tilt his head to the side, forcibly turning part of his body around.
Averted a fatal blow.
However, some water bullets still managed to tear the clothes of the Root Chunin, and the splattered blood caused him to groan in pain.
A faint look of pain appeared on the face hidden by the mask.
After Jonin his Water Bullet Technique to temporarily force back the Root who was pressing him head-on, Qi flipped over and closed in, intending to kill the Root Chunin directly!
But that Root Jonin clearly wouldn't give him that chance.
"Whoosh!"
After taking a step back to dodge the activated Water Release attack, as if anticipating Qi's attack direction, she flashed and directly moved to Qi's diagonal position.
Then, the Chakra scimitar was raised high once more.
Aiming at Qi's head, he swung down viciously.
A blatant attempt to relieve the siege of Wei by attacking Zhao.
If Qi Ruo still wants to forcibly kill that Root Chunin, this slash will inevitably fall on him. Even if he can use his agile footwork to create some distance, it is impossible for him to completely avoid it. He will be seriously injured even if he doesn't die!
This is clearly an unprofitable deal, and there's absolutely no need to hesitate.
"!"
Qi's eyes narrowed.
He decisively abandoned the aggressive attack, and with a quick backstep, dodged the attack.
"Bang!"
The scimitar that crashed to the ground created a deep crater where Qi had stood before, and the dust that rose up corresponded to that extremely sinister aura at that moment.
If one attack fails, regroup immediately.
That's another position where the two sides are separated, but it's also a perfect setup for a pincer attack.
Qi, who was not far away, felt a sinking feeling in his heart. The expression on his face was extremely ugly. It was obvious that they had come prepared, whether in terms of the number and quality of their personnel or, most importantly, the matchup!
It truly takes into account every possible factor.
Qi himself might be in a slightly better position, but looking at the other battle groups, almost all of them were at a disadvantage!
Leaving aside the Genin who are only slightly better, even Mei Terumi, Kisame, and Shingetsu are either directly fighting against Jonin Chunin several chunin!
This is the situation.
It would be a miracle if they had an advantage!
Even without expanding their advantage, if this situation continues, it's foreseeable that the other dozen Genin will be dealt with in the shortest amount of time. Once that happens, the other Root members will be free to join the encirclement and annihilation of Kei, Mei Terumi, and Ao.
This group of people is definitely not going to survive!
We absolutely must find a way to get out of this predicament, but what way should we try!?
Qi's expression turned extremely ferocious at this moment.
At just eight years old, he possesses strength comparable Jonin, or even surpassing, that of a Jonin. This is an extraordinary level of development!
Even so, in the current situation, there is still very little he can do!
"These guys!"
Moreover, the Root cultivators facing Qi clearly wouldn't give Qi any extra time to consider things; it would only take a few seconds.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Then it was another figure rushing straight up.
Qi's expression hardened.
Ice Release: Ice Crystal Flower!
With a swift clap of his hands, he Hand Seals in the shortest time. Accompanied by the pervasive icy aura, more than ten dazzling flowers condensed in mid-air.
At the very moment they converged.
Fire Style: Searing Migraine Technique!
In the front position.
That Root Jonin also rapidly Hand Seals.
At the completion of the procedure.
That small fireball shot out with tremendous force!
The moment they landed, the flames spread rapidly, creating a blazing sea of fire that covered all the ice crystal flowers, devouring them in an instant!
