Chapter 207: Chapter 207: A surprise attack on Kumogakure, and the Second Tail's arrival
"Hmph, just as I thought, a bunch of losers who only know how to fight when the wind is in their favor."
As soon as Sandaime Raikage arrived on the battlefield, he quickly took in the situation and immediately noticed that the people of Kusagakure were retreating. He angrily said,
Then, he let out a deafening roar: "Listen, everyone, I'm here. Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed when I get back. Now, give me your best shot and destroy that military fortress."
Upon hearing this, all the Cloud ninjas on the battlefield were greatly boosted in morale and exclaimed in surprise:
"Raikage-sama is here, we're going to win for sure."
"Boss is here, brothers, follow me, let's demolish that broken fortress."
"Long live Lord Raikage, charge..."
...
For a time, Kumogakure's morale was high, and everyone instantly found their backbone, following the words of Sandaime Raikage and going to attack the fortress.
In the blink of an eye, a large number of Ame-Nin who had originally been pursuing them were killed in turn, and the sturdy military fortress became precarious under the onslaught of numerous ninjutsu and explosive tags.
"Damn you, Sandaime Raikage!"
Within Blue B, the Gyuki Oni saw Sandaime Raikage descend and cried out in anger, then decisively manipulated Blue B to turn around and run.
He was not afraid of Sandaime Raikage, but he was still three tails away from breaking free from Blue B's body. Once he managed to break free, he would no longer have to fear this abominable thunder musclehead.
Blue B, which had already become a five-tailed beast, had its physical fitness enhanced to an astonishing degree. Its movement speed alone was close to the technique of Instant Body Transfer, and in the blink of an eye, it had run several hundred meters.
Unfortunately, its opponent was Sandaime Raikage, a powerful ninja who had trained the Lightning Release Chakra Mode to an extremely high level. He had only managed to make Blue B run several hundred meters before Sandaime Raikage suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Get back here!"
Sandaime Raikage shouted angrily, and punched hard at the tail beastified Blue B's head.
The tail beastified Blue B was suddenly sent flying by the punch, let out a painful cry, and then, obeying its instincts, launched an attack on Sandaime Raikage.
The five chakra tails behind him instantly extended, and they stabbed at Sandaime Raikage like lightning.
In the end, they only managed to hit a shadow of Sandaime Raikage.
The real Sandaime Raikage had appeared above the tail beast's transformed body, and had stamped down hard on its back, sending it crashing to the ground.
A jellyfish-like airwave appeared, and a large, cracked crater instantly appeared on the ground.
Lightning Release: Guillotine Drop!
"Ahhh!"
The tail beast's transformed body let out another scream.
However, despite being so seriously injured, Blue B did not fall. Instead, more tail beast chakra surged out of his body, and a new chakra tail quickly grew out of Blue B's tail.
"Damn you, Gyuki. Blue B, you idiot, wake up quickly,"
Sandaime Raikage angrily shouted as he once again concentrated a large amount of Lightning Release chakra in his right foot and gave the tail beast that was trying to struggle to its feet another hard kick.
Blue B, the tail beast, was suppressed once again.
Not far away, Hanzo of the Salamander watched Sandaime Raikage suppress the Six-Tailed Blue B like he was beating up a child, and couldn't help but exclaim in awe, "This guy is so strong, and the Chakra fluctuations he emits give me the feeling that he is no less powerful than a tail beast."
Then, he glanced at the way the military fortress was constructed, and his face became gloomy.
After the out-of-control Blue B was suppressed by Sandaime Raikage, Kumogakure's attacks became even more fierce. Amegakure had an advantage thanks to the sturdy military fortress, but the gap in power between the ninja was ultimately too great.
Judging from the situation, it wouldn't be long before the military fortress was broken by Kumogakure.
Now, Kumogakure had an even more troublesome opponent than the Gyuki Jinchuuriki, Sandaime Raikage, and it seemed that Amegakure's fate was sealed.
"We must hold out a little longer."
Hanzo then remembered his promise to someone, his eyes sharpening as he stared at Sandaime Raikage, a powerful fighting spirit rising from him.
"Hmm..."
Sandaime Raikage immediately felt the powerful battle spirit from Hanzo, turning his head to look at Hanzo with relief, his eyes also revealing a strong fighting spirit.
As Sandaime Raikage looked over, Hanzo was rapidly forming seals.
In less than half a second, Hanzo completed a dazzling series of hand seals.
A huge torrent of water suddenly rose from the puddle behind him, transforming into a huge wave that rushed towards Sandaime Raikage.
Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!
Facing this surging, huge wave, Sandaime Raikage first stamped down hard on the tailed beast-turned cloth behind him, then raised his hand and pointed it at the huge wave coming from in front of him, slashing downwards with all his strength.
A huge blue blade of chakra appeared.
The huge wave was instantly split in half.
At this moment, Hanzo's figure had already disappeared, but Sandaime Raikage decisively reached behind him with his left hand and grabbed his elbow.
The next moment, the elbow, wrapped in high-density Lightning Release chakra, collided with the scythe in Hanzo's hand.
A powerful blast of air suddenly appeared.
Hanzo then vomited a mouthful of blood and flew backwards, leaving two hundred-meter-long scratches on the ground before coming to a stop.
"DemiGod of the Shinobi World? Hmph, just wait for me, I'll deal with you after I wake my brother up,"
Sandaime Raikage sneered.
After activating the Lightning Release Chakra mode, not only did his physical fitness and nerve reaction ability improve, his perception ability also improved astonishingly.
Hanzo's concealment technique and water shunshin technique were powerful, but they could not escape his perception.
Hanzo heard Sandaime Raikage's arrogant words and his expression did not change, but his gaze at Sandaime Raikage became more and more solemn.
He had already confirmed that the other party was the kind of ninja with powerful perception abilities that he least wanted to meet, and the Lightning Release Chakra that was wrapped around the other party was like an impenetrable armor. His proficient assassination techniques and the scythe made of chakra metal could hardly harm the other party.
However, he also discovered the opponent's weak point, which was that the opponent had to consume a large amount of chakra every moment to maintain the Lightning Release armor on his body.
"But this guy's chakra amount is comparable to that of a tailed beast. If it comes to consumption, it's hard to say who will be the one to run out."
Hanzo thought of Sandaime Raikage's bottomless chakra amount and muttered to himself that this was going to be tricky.
He hadn't encountered such a formidable opponent in a long time.
Then, he took out a yellow pill from his body, threw it into his mouth, and ate it.
In less than a moment, a powerful surge of chakra welled up from his stomach, quickly replenishing the large amount of chakra he had previously expended and greatly restoring his physical strength.
In just a few seconds, Hanzo had returned to his prime.
Special curry pills.
This is a new type of soldier's pill developed by the Higanbana Pharmaceutical Company based on the Akimichi Secret Medicine Three Coloured Pills of the Akimichi clan. It is a new type of soldier's pill that quickly restores Chakra and is able to quickly restore the Chakra and physical strength needed by an ordinary Kage-Level powerhouse.
It can be said that this type of soldier's pill is a very precious treasure for Kage-Level powerhouses.
However, the price is that a certain amount of life is used up.
"If Lightning Release, then Wind Release should be able to break through the defense,"
Hanzo muttered.
As soon as he finished speaking, the scythe in his hand was covered in a rich layer of Wind Release Chakra.
"Interesting."
Sandaime Raikage's expression became slightly solemn upon seeing Hanzo return to his prime form and the scythe in his hand covered in a rich layer of Wind Release Chakra.
He knew that the battle between him and Hanzo had only just begun.
On the other side, the Kumogakure temporary battlefield base camp.
Erui is closely monitoring the situation on the battlefield with the help of the battlefield intelligence that is constantly being sent in. From the latest battle reports alone, it can be seen that Kumogakure has stabilized the previous decline and is rapidly heading towards victory under the leadership of Sandaime Raikage.
Erui is not happy at all as she looks at the latest battle reports in her hands, her face showing no joy and her eyebrows furrowed.
The reason for this is the delay in the appearance of a certain key figure from Amegakure.
Hattori Masanari, the reformer of Amegakure, the dark side of Amegakure, the leader of Amegakure's Abyss Division, and Amegakure's new Kage-Level powerhouse.
Many titles in one.
There is no doubt that this is a very dangerous character, and the fact that such a person has not appeared since the start of the war really makes Erui feel like a thorn in her side.
She knows that Hattori Masanari is definitely planning something, and once he makes his move, it will definitely be a thunderclap.
She had thought that Hattori Masanari would attack while Sandaime Raikage was away from the temporary battlefield base. After all, the defense of the base had been reduced to a minimum without Sandaime Raikage, and it stored a lot of Kumogakure's strategic supplies. If they could be destroyed, it would definitely deal a heavy blow to Kumogakure's offensive pace.
However, Sandaime Raikage had already left for half an hour, and if the opponent wanted to launch a sneak attack, they should have done it a long time ago. It was already past the best time to do so.
"Which relief did I miss?"
Erui frowned, racking her brain.
Meanwhile, in a cave five or six kilometers outside the Kumogakure village, a group of ninja wearing the Amegakure forehead protector were waiting silently. Judging from the vests they were wearing, each of them was an Amegakure jōnin.
At this moment, each of these Amegakure jōnin had an expression of acceptance on their faces.
Suddenly, one of them, the pale masked man, stood up and said, "Time's up."
The person speaking was Kirito's White Zetsu clone, the Amegakure ninja Hattori Masanari.
Erui, secretary to Sandaime Raikage, was right to think that he was planning something big, and that was to attack Kumogakure.
Gather the strength of 50 Amegakure jōnin to attack Kumogakure.
There is no doubt that this is a very crazy plan, because even if Kumogakure sends a large number of ninja to invade the Land of Rain and guard other borders, there are still more than 3,000 ninja inside the village, including more than 100 jōnin.
At the same time, Kumogakure's Two-Tailed Jinchuuriki is also kept in the village.
Hattori Masanari's attack on Kumogakure with 50 Amegakure jōnin is like hitting a stone with an egg.
But since Amegakure is currently too weak, if they fight head-on, they simply won't be able to defeat Kumogakure with their current strength. The only way is to take risks and make Kumogakure pay, to make them feel the pain, so that they will understand the ruthlessness of Amegakure.
Under the leadership of the White Zetsu clone, who has the Byakugan, the fifty Amegakure jōnin pass through the many lines of defense set up by Kumogakure outside very smoothly, and quickly approach the outskirts of Kumogakure.
Soon, Kumogakure was in the sights of the White Zetsu clone and the group of Amegakure jōnin.
"Proceed as planned,"
the White Zetsu clone said, turning to the group of Amegakure jōnin behind him.
"Yes, Lord Masanari,"
the group of Amegakure jōnin said in unison.
The next moment, twenty Amegakure jōnin who were skilled in Water Release immediately began to form seals at the same time.
Water Release: Rain Tiger Technique!
This Water Release jutsu was invented by Kirito based on the Rain Tiger at Will Technique. It is a variation of the Rain Tiger at Will Technique, no longer sending chakra into the sky to mix with the rainwater for surveillance, but rather directly Water Releasing chakra to create rain clouds and then artificially cause rainfall.
More than twenty Water Release jōnin working together to create this Water Release jutsu, the power of which is naturally quite astonishing.
A huge rain cloud began to rapidly appear in the sky of Kumogakure.
At the same time, the five Ame-Nin jōnin quickly turned into pieces of paper and flew into the sky.
The Secret Technique, the Dance of Shikigami!
This is one of the few special Secret Techniques of the Amegakure, and very few people can master it.
While the five Ame-Nin jōnin were turning into pieces of paper using the Secret Technique, several Ame-Nin carrying boxes opened them to reveal a large number of waterproof explosive tags inside.
Ten thousand enhanced explosive tags.
This was one of the gifts Kirito gave the Kumogakure village
As soon as the box was opened, the explosive tags, which had already been imbued with the chakra of the five Ame-Nin who had mastered the Dance of Paper technique, flew up, accompanied by the five Amegakure jōnin, towards Kumogakure.
As the rain fell, the White Zetsu clone rushed towards Kumogakure with the remaining Amegakure jōnin.
The ninja of Kumogakure were extremely vigilant. As soon as the abnormal rain cloud appeared overhead, many of them sounded the alarm. Then, as a large number of strange pieces of paper flew into Kumogakure, the alarm began to sound.
"Boom boom boom..."
As the explosive tags fell onto the buildings in Kumogakure under the control of the five Amegakure jōnin who had mastered the Dance of Paper, a large number of explosions quickly appeared.
For a moment, a large number of ordinary people in Kumogakure let out screams of fear.
Panic quickly spread through the crowd.
"Bastards, who are you people!"
"Damn you guys, I'm going to kill you."
"Ame-Nin, you bunch of scum actually dare to come here, we from Kumogakure will definitely destroy you."
...
Shortly after the explosion, the White Zetsu clone led more than 40 Amegakure jōnin into the Kumogakure village. They immediately attracted the attention of many Kumogakure ninjas, who angrily shouted at them.
In response, in the pouring rain, the White Zetsu clone clapped his hands together, and a powerful burst of chakra instantly surged out of his body.
A large amount of the accumulated water in the Kumogakure village suddenly surged into the air, converging into a huge wave more than 20 meters high, which then crashed down.
Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!
Under the impact of the huge wave, a large number of houses and people were swept up, and a corner of Kumogakure Village was reduced to ruins, with countless casualties.
After the White Zetsu clone had done all this, more than ten Lightning Release jutsu techniques suddenly shot at him from all directions.
He did not panic, and once again clapped his hands together, causing the water shunshin technique to disappear in place.
The other Amegakure jōnin had already dispersed, and three of them used their summoning techniques to conjure a huge black rhinoceros, a giant three-headed dog, and a huge strange bird. The three huge summoned beasts wreaked havoc in Kumogakure, destroying a large number of buildings.
The White Zetsu clone also did its best to inflict as many scars as possible on Kumogakure. Relying on the rain that kept falling from the sky, he kept using the Water Release: Great Waterfall technique to create huge waves of water, causing huge damage and casualties in Kumogakure.
A large number of Jōnin and Chūnin from Kumogakure also came looking for the White Zetsu clone to attack it.
Unfortunately, in the face of the White Zetsu clone, who had Byakugan and whose strength had long since reached Kage level, their attacks were laughable and stupid. They couldn't hit him at all, and instead, he killed most of them with various powerful Water Release jutsu.
It wasn't until a ninja covered in blue cat demon patterned chakra appeared in front of the White Zetsu clone that the White Zetsu clone felt a little pressure.
The two-tailed Jinchuuriki, Futami Yuzuriha.
Like the eight-tailed Jinchuuriki Blue B, he is a Jinchuuriki who has mastered the power of tail beast transformation. And because the character of the two tails is much better than the eight tails, and his power is far less powerful than the eight tails, although Futami Yuzuriha is not a perfect Jinchuuriki, he can already use the power of the two tails to fight flexibly.
"Hattori Masanari, you deserve to die. Do you know what you have done? The boss will never let you Amegakure Village go."
With pale eyes, Futami Yuzuriha stared at the clone of Hattori Masanari played by White Zetsu and said murderously, "You're dead, Hattori Masanari!
"Cut the crap, you allowed Kumogakure to invade the Land of Rain without reason, but you don't allow us to destroy Kumogakure? You asked for this,"
the clone of White Zetsu sneered.
As soon as he finished speaking, he clapped his hands together, and a huge water dragon quickly appeared, rushing towards Futami Yuzuriha at high speed.
Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!
Hearing the words of the White Zetsu clone, Futami Yuzuriha felt his hearts sink. He was well aware that Kumogakure was in the wrong.
He could only say that heaven rewards those who deserve it.
Kumogakure was being punished for its evil deeds.
He no longer intended to persuade or threaten, and immediately burst out with astonishing speed, avoiding the incoming giant water dragon, before pouncing on the back of the White Zetsu clone.
In any case, these Amegakure who dared to invade Kumogakure must be eliminated.
But the next moment, his face changed drastically. Hattori Masanari in front of him had actually sensed his attack and reacted with a frighteningly fast kick to his chest.
"Whoosh~"
Futami Yuzuhira immediately flew backwards at high speed, eventually crashing heavily among a pile of ruins.
"Meow~"
A moment later, a shrill meow sounded.
A huge cat demon made up entirely of blue cat demon patterns of chakra appeared before the White Zetsu clone.
Complete transformation into a tail beast, two tails.
"Two tails, interesting,"
the White Zetsu clone looked at the completely transformed Yuzuhira in front of him, and a greedy gleam suddenly flashed in his eyes.
As soon as Yuzuhira entered complete transformation into a tail beast, he immediately launched a fierce attack on the White Zetsu clone, spitting out several huge blue fireballs from his mouth in an instant.
At the same time, a large number of basketball-sized rodent-like flames were released from his body, surrounding the White Zetsu clone from all directions before attacking.
For a moment, the White Zetsu clone seemed to be caught in a sea of fire.
