The Ujin and Sōretsu killed most of the orcs, while the Earth and Stone Warriors were also badly damaged due to the orcs' counterattack.
A deep voice came from beneath the bamboo helmet of the Ujin: "The Ming King is about to fall; I will use the Hakoku once more."
As the battle dragged on, Ujin, who was not skilled in Senjutsu, became increasingly Sage Transformation a Sage. He planned to use his last Chakra to unleash the Hakoku, which Sōretsu, Tōshirō, and Kendon understood.
The earth and stone warriors, following the Ujin, raised their greatswords above their heads, and black and red Chakra reappeared.
Sōretsu leaped high into the air, exhaling Fire Style Chakra into his mouth, which he then imbued into the blade. Upon landing, he plunged the blade into the ground. " Fire Style: Fire Blade Hell!"
Starting from the blade, the ground cracked open, spewing out large amounts of red, blade-tipped flames, each three meters high, which connected to form a wall of fire, attempting to create a ring of fire to trap the orcs within the range of the Hakoku's attack.
However, some orcs remained outside the circle of fire and charged towards her. Just as Sōretsu was about to unleash Ninjutsu with one hand, two figures appeared in front of her.
"Cloud Flow - Crescent Moon Slash!"
Takuden swung his sword, a half-moon shape, severing the two orcs at the very front.
" Wind Release: Breakthrough!" Shikin Shinma also used Ninjutsu to force the orcs back.
"Hmph. You're smart to know what's good for you."
After repelling several orcs, Takuden said in a deep voice, "Hey! Chieftain, have you noticed? These monsters are getting bigger and bigger."
Under the crushing force of the thirteen Nuclear Ninja, the number of orcs did decrease, but those that remained were strong.
Some of the orcs, like the red-haired orc, even began to devour the corpses of their own kind, their bodies growing larger and larger. The strongest one was now as big as an elephant.
The Fire Blade Hell had now surrounded the city, trapping over 90% of the orcs within. A bead of sweat trickled down Sōretsu Chakra's forehead as his chakra surged once more, and the fire circle began to shrink.
Kendon moved the red-haired orc aside, and seeing that Fire Blade Hell had begun to shrink, he deployed the Blue Bird Type Seven behind him and flew into the sky: " Poison Release: Venomous Explosion".
The Kendon's abdomen swelled up, spewing out a dense purple poisonous mist that poured down like a water column.
"Roar!"
Wherever the poisonous fog passed, the weaker orcs collapsed to the ground, their bodies convulsing. Even those with some resistance to the poison were not completely immune, and some even died instantly.
The wall of fire gradually shrank, and the area covered by the poisonous fog expanded, reducing the orcs' range of movement. Only when they touched the wall of fire did they realize its power.
The temperature outside the wall of fire was not high, but when anything touched the flames, it was instantly burned and vaporized, leaving only charred bones.
Caught between a rock and a hard place, only a few flying orcs took to the air, attempting to escape.
" Scorch Release: Over-Steaming Shuriken!"
The Tōshirō, waiting in the air with an orange fireball burning behind him, had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the flying orc, he waved his hands, and a part of the fireball separated and condensed into Shuriken that flew towards him.
"Hiss!"
The Shuriken was incredibly fast, exploding the moment it hit the orc's body. The orc's body instantly lost all moisture, turning into a dried-up corpse that fell to the ground.
As a result, only a few of the strongest orcs managed to leap out of the ring of fire, thanks to their immense strength.
Ice Release: Solid Ice Prison Seal!
Kashirō gave them no chance. As he jumped out of the fire circle, the ice spikes pierced the orc's body and exploded, sealing him in ice.
The earth and stone warriors on the Ujin had completed their charge, and their greatswords slashed down diagonally. " Nuclear Ninja Secret Sword - Hakoku!"
"Boom!"
The ring of fire and the poisonous mist were cleaved apart by the power of the Hakoku, and the blade energy spread rapidly in both directions, turning the orcs and the ground into nothingness wherever it passed.
In the end, the entire Fire Blade Hell was extinguished by the Hakoku, with smoke and dust billowing into the sky, and rocks falling continuously from the shaken Purple Gold Mountain.
The tremors lasted for a full minute before stopping, and the smoke and dust were gradually dispersed by the wind.
Takuden and Shikin Shinma were stunned. The once flat and wide square had been completely destroyed, leaving only a pile of rocks. If it weren't for the few ice balls sealing the orcs standing at the edge, they would have thought that the orcs they had just seen were just their imagination.
"Chief, this..."
"Elder Takuden, these people are terrifying! They probably all possess the power of a Shadow Realm expert!"
"Terrifying! Look at their Forehead Protector! Nuclear Ninja Village! What kind of ninja village is that?!"
When Shikin Shinma was selling Zijin Mine, a hardware dealer once told him that the Nuclear Ninja Village was a newly established ninja village in the Land of Spring: "A newly established ninja village can have such terrifyingly powerful individuals."
"Crack." The earth and stone warrior, already damaged by the orcs' attacks, finally turned into rubble and fell to the ground after using the Hakoku.
After Ujin and Sōretsu finished their attack, their bodies were already being eroded by Natural Energy. In addition, their Chakra was greatly depleted, which intensified their Sage Transformation, and beast horns began to grow on their heads.
"If you continue like this, there will be problems."
Kashirō landed beside Ujin, intending to use Sealing Jutsu to temporarily seal them in ice to prevent them from Sage Transformation.
Just then, a sound rang out at the entrance of Purple Gold Mountain: "Wow! Such rich Natural Energy! We can't waste it!"
When Hongshi's cheeky voice rang out, Kashirō turned around and saw that he was carrying a tortoise shell on his back, wearing Whitebeard and sunglasses, and holding a twig that he had picked up from somewhere.
Kashirō was already used to Hongshi's peculiar habit of role-playing, and simply sighed, "Elder! Come quickly and absorb this Natural Energy!"
Hongshi stood on the back of the earthen tortoise and slowly walked in, with the Fūjin and Raijin brothers carrying Ranmaru not far behind him.
Ranmaru had already seen the situation from a great distance using his Red Eye, but Hongshi was not afraid at all. Instead, he chatted awkwardly as he made his way forward, arriving here just as the battle ended.
Ranmaru looked at the Chakra Sōretsu and Ujin: " Hongshi-kun! Sōretsu- neechan and this big guy, their Chakra is very chaotic, almost like those beastmen!"
Hongshi stroked his beard. "Hehehe, it's alright. They have strong wills and aren't so easily influenced by Natural Energy."
Seeing that Hongshi still hadn't made a move, Kashirō drew his katana. The blade flashed with alternating white Ice Release Chakra and orange Scorch Release Chakra, forming two dragon-like shapes in the air. "Elder! If you don't deal with this soon, they'll turn into beastmen!"
Sōretsu and Ujin closed their eyes, sat cross-legged on the ground, and tried to convert the Natural Energy in their bodies into Senjutsu Chakra and enter Sage Mode.
Hongshi stroked his beard again, only to yank it off and drop it to the ground. "Heh heh... counterfeit goods are a disgrace! Call me Master Roshi. Don't worry, they can pull through. I'll absorb the Natural Energy from the air first... Ah, I suddenly have an idea!"
The Lord God: "Damn it, what are you trying to do now!"
After saying this, Hongshi raised his hands, covering the entire body of Natural Energy, which then converged into Hongshi's hands like a receding tide.
The extremely high concentration of Natural Energy even manifested as a physical form, gradually condensing into a white liquid sphere in Hongshi's hand.
On the other side Kendon seemed completely unconcerned about what was happening here. He rolled the four ice balls containing the orcs together, pulled a notebook from his crotch, and quickly made notes. "Emm, a bad pen is better than a good memory, remember this, remember this."
