Chapter 46: Invader 3
I didn't want to interfere with Haku and Kumaru's first "real battle", so I used my stealth technique, quietly moving to a position where I wouldn't interfere with the fight, and also in a direction from which I could rush over to rescue either of them if anything happened.
Is it the dance of the camellia or the willow? It can be seen that the two skeletons' basic blood inheritance application, Junmalu's use is very smooth, and his whole body has almost no extra movements.
Kunimaru charged at the Jonin with an astonishing speed, wielding a short knife made of bone. The high-speed attack created afterimages that seemed to weave the Iwagakure ninja into a web of death. Due to the unconventional movement, Kunimaru's opponent found it increasingly difficult to predict the direction and angle of the attacks, and the wounds on his body also increased dramatically.
He's Kumara, after all, trained under sixfold seal, his speed far surpasses that of a mid-level ninja. This Iwagakure ninja probably isn't a taijutsu specialist either, no wonder he's in such a sorry state. Still, it's clear that the foundation of this Iwagakure ninja is quite good, but to keep dodging these swift and fierce attacks is impossible. There are many reasons for this, mainly because they're inside a cave, how much space can there be for him to retreat?
In an instant, a void appeared, and Gantetsu's figure suddenly became disordered. Then, Kimaru and he exchanged a glance before retreating back to Haku's side. A bright red blood flower bloomed on Gantetsu's body as he fell over.
Their collaboration is great! I looked at the last photo on the ground, reflecting a ray of light.
It's ice! So it was a slip and fall to death! What an interesting way to die, Kimimaro's chakra control is also very good, able to move freely even on the ice, in the sudden encounter with unexpected circumstances, completely calm and composed, whether it's due to his tacit understanding with Haku or his reaction to the sudden situation, both are very good.
It seems they've done a good job dividing the work! I slightly appreciate it in my heart. The white ice appeared halfway through and didn't have any seals or incantations, although it's just a thin layer of ice, but this is a great start for both the Muin and Muhou Ninjutsu.
Bai Hejun's performance is much better than I expected, but they still have about twice the seal on their bodies! I don't know if this is confidence or arrogance, and I hope it's the former.
The opponent only has one Jonin and Genin left, if the hidden person in the back doesn't appear soon! I'll have to take precautions against them sneaking away. This base has already been exposed, killing all the intruders will allow us to buy some time to escape. Given the current situation, it's impossible to confront one of the five great ninja villages head-on, and it's also about time to prepare to return to Konoha, this might be a good opportunity too.
That young ninja, seeing the corpse of Iwagakure's ninja who had just fallen to the ground, shouted with a face full of anger: "You... killed my brother! Brother is my only relative now! How detestable! I want you to pay for your life! Murderer..." Before he could finish speaking, he fell over.
"How stupid! When you have the chance to speak, it's better to launch a sneak attack... In battle, only those who have the upper hand are qualified to talk nonsense. You don't even know this basic principle, and yet you're still considered a lower ninja!"
Four holes appeared on his face, and bright red blood and milky white ** flowed out. His immature face was full of shocked expression.
He slowly withdrew his left hand that had just used the "Four Fingers Piercing Bullet" technique, his entire face filled with a dense indifference, as if what he had just killed was only an insect, or not even an insect with life, but merely a wooden block, a practice target.
The calm and collected expression on Kimarou's face during battles is completely different from the shy smile he always has when he's by my side. People who don't know him well wouldn't think they're the same person at all.
I noticed that the remaining Jonin, Iwagakure no Shinobi, after seeing his other teammates die, had a look of horror and panic in his eyes.
Not good, I've seen this kind of gaze many times during my hunting career. Once this emotion accumulates to an extreme point, either it will lead to death or...
I saw that Jonin Iwagakure carefully avoiding the line of sight of Shiro and Kuni, slowly taking out several things from his sleeve that looked very familiar to me.
Does that Iwagakure ninja want to die together? In a state of panic.
That Iwao ninja rushed towards Shirou and Kaito.
I sprinted between the two, mobilizing all the chakra in my vicinity to form a massive, tangible shield of protection before me. In less than a second, an intense explosion erupted, accompanied by thick, dark smoke.
Was it suicide or did you want to die together? That's why... I feel that the Chakra shield has decreased by more than 70%, but I didn't get hurt, and I'm fine. I think White and Kun too will be okay. Now I'm extremely grateful that I still maintain my transformed state, the shield range can completely cover White and Kun behind me, and can also block some explosions for the children at the Orochimaru base. At least here, "working" to do something human is good.
But, as expected, the amount of chakra is still not enough with the current situation. I should have unsealed it earlier! The chakra in my body is also insufficient. "Dōjutsu" really consumes a lot of chakra, and if I use it, even I think I won't be able to withstand more than ten minutes of fighting!
But that's just what I said, even if I went back to that time point again, I still wouldn't unseal the seal, because I want to train with all my might whenever possible, so that Kuu can wake up as soon as possible. Under this premise... anything else is... meaningless.
I turned to look at Shirakawa and Kuma, "Since we don't need to leave any alive, why not take the initiative to kill that Iwagin? Are you waiting for him to make the first move?" Is it because of the first battle? Do we still need the opponent to show signs of attack before making a ruthless move?
"Ice Escape! Ice Wall Technique!"
"Behind the adults!"
The voices of Bai He and Jun Maluo sounded at the same time.
"Hah! You've actually managed to completely block my bomb's power? Then try this, my latest specially-made EC7! Hmm!"
The figure moved extremely quickly, with their entire body still shrouded in the lingering smoke. Before they had even finished speaking, another blast of energy struck, more than twice as powerful as the previous explosion. The scattered smoke was a strange blue and red color.
Although the white ice wall blocked part of the impact, the remaining explosive force still shattered all my remaining protective chakra shapes, and White and Kimimaro were also affected by this shockwave. The two of them were knocked backward and collided with the children behind them. I myself was not immune to the effects either; maintaining my chakra was a fierce struggle, and my transformation technique began to dissipate. Fortunately, thanks to the protection of the chakra within me, most of my organs were unharmed, and it would take no more than a day for me to fully recover.
"What! Nothing happened! How is that possible! This is one of my latest creations, how can nothing happen at all! Despicable, look at me... Eh? Spirit?" The attacker was originally furious and cursing loudly, but didn't expect the smoke to clear up, and the target he just attacked turned out to be the "Spirit" he himself had driven away yesterday!
