This location was pointed out with ease.

Even if it is said that the true form and the original self have not yet been distinguished.

However, this was still enough to pose a great threat to Qi. This is the advantage of sensory ninjas. If these people hadn't existed, during their previous breakout and escape, with the Hidden Mist Technique providing cover, it would have been very difficult for these Root members to track them down.

That is, the existence of the sensory ninja was discovered.

Unless you're moving at a very high speed, your approximate location will definitely be locked.

That is how it begins.

The others who fled separately, such as Ao, Mei Terumi, and Kisame, fared much the same way!

Qi had already prepared himself mentally, but being pinpointed to the exact location so soon after getting close still made his expression grow increasingly grim.

'This kind of guy is really annoying!'

Qi snorted inwardly.

On the one hand, it also further solidified her previous plans.

His whereabouts were exposed by shouts.

Furthermore, they saw that the Root Jonin Lightning Release had already begun Hand Seals in sync.

" Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"

Qi, with a speed that was even faster, completed the Hand Seals ahead of time.

"Boom!"

As the surging waves rolled in, this overwhelming momentum rose up.

"!?"

In the opposite seat.

The Lightning Release of the Root Jonin, who could not see it but could hear and sense the fierce wave of water rushing towards him, changed.

The Hand Seals were stopped immediately.

With a leap, he...

" Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall Jutsu!"

While evacuating from the original location, they changed the traces.

The Earth Release Technique was released directly.

While this is not his Chakra nature, it is common for a Jonin to be able to use several other nature-based ninjutsu!

The only drawback is the lack of corresponding attributes, which results in a slightly weaker technique and a higher Chakra consumption.

Earth Release: Rock Dome Technique!

In the back, the Root members, skilled in Earth Release techniques, also quickly Hand Seals. After determining the positions of their teammates and receiving notifications from their own comrades, they confirmed the exact locations of the figures and immediately began Hand Seals.

"Boom!"

The ground that followed was lifted up.

One after another, massive rocks suddenly appeared, standing apart and blocking the way.

"Bang!"

They easily stopped the oncoming wave.

However, Qi didn't care at all.

This technique was originally intended to divide the formation.

Ice Release: Frost Path Technique!

After the first attack had its intended effect, the deity standing on the left immediately Hand Seals.

Relying on the Hidden Mist Technique, one hides in this vast white world, and then rapidly forms a mark.

A faint mist of ice appeared out of nowhere, clinging to the ground, instantly spreading into a scene of ice crystals.

"!?"

"This!?"

Smooth and flat.

It's a special white mist that's generated at an extremely rapid rate!

This, combined with the Hidden Mist Technique, forms a perfect pairing, further restricting the movement of Root members within this area.

"Don't panic! Everyone stay together and make sure you don't exceed the detection and defense range!"

"Yes!"

A single lesson can be a profound lesson.

As a Jonin of Root, this leader knew very well that the more difficult the situation, the less he could rush into battle. Moreover, both the Hidden Mist Technique and this special Ice Release technique were continuous techniques. This meant that for every second the technique lasted, the user would have to pay the price of Chakra consumption!

How much Chakra does this Ice Release youth have left to burn!?

Even by the highest standards, in such a battle, they would only need to hold out for about half an hour, or at most an hour, to bring the enemy to their wits' end!

There's absolutely no need for us to rush!

He stood alone at the front, with several subordinates clustered together—this was the perfect formation. Even if that young man was far stronger than him, could he possibly kill him instantly?!

"Zzzzzzzzzzz!"

This is done without any reservation; it's the same state of cellular activation achieved by stimulating one's own cells with Lightning Release Chakra.

It was visibly that the aura emanating Jonin this Root had become extremely sharp.

'Hehe! That's exactly how it should be!'

However, this is exactly the result Qi wanted to see.

The positions were quickly dispersed.

Three Ice Clone pressed down with immense force.

Then the main body went straight to the location of that Root Jonin.

With a single hand, a flash of cold light appeared, directly manifesting an ice blade emanating a chilling aura.

It was clearly aimed Jonin the throat of the Root Jonin.

"Whoosh!"

From the angle of a downward slash.

"Um!?"

You can't see it, but you can hear and sense Qi's rapidly approaching aura, until the blade presses down.

This Root Jonin also drew his Chakra weapon, unleashing a burst of Lightning Release Chakra!

"Zzzzzzzzz!"

As thunder roared.

"Clang!"

Two weapons that seem to be moving in opposite directions.

A sharp and piercing sound exploded out, and Qi instinctively released a massive amount of ice power.

But the next second, before it could even take shape, it was blasted apart by the equally powerful lightning!

'This is really tricky!'

Especially the force that pushed back simultaneously caused Qi's expression to darken. He was forced to retreat, but the Root Jonin clearly did not intend to let go of such an opportunity!

"This is the main body! You can handle those clones!"

Moreover, the moment they touched, this Root Jonin was 100% certain that the person in front of him was the real Kei!

It's absolutely impossible to let go again!

Like a shadow, it clings tightly to the top.

" Lightning Release: Electric Attachment Technique!"

A flickering shadow of thunder!

"Boom!"

It appeared brightly in close proximity.

"Not good!"

As soon as the frost blade came into view, his expression changed. He stepped on the ground and used the special path it formed to retreat rapidly, while simultaneously swinging the frost blade horizontally.

"Bang!"

A beam of lightning, which then meandered out, suddenly struck the frost blade, forcefully piercing through the cold ninja.

"Sizzle!"

It struck Qi in the chest.

His clothes ripped open, revealing charred skin. As he felt the piercing pain, Qi's expression grew even colder.

Despite the pain, Qi gritted his teeth and persevered, fully unleashing his perception.

Then came the figure retreating step by step.

While watching as the Root Jonin continued to follow him closely, and while several Root Chunin were still locked in combat with his clone not far away.

Qi's lips also curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.

Although his Ice Clone didn't have half the power of his main body, and the Chakra it distributed was pitifully small, it was still more than enough to hold off a few Chunin a short while!
