Naruto: Creating Immortal Techniques at Six, Shocking Uncle Snake

Chapter 220: A Summoned Beast Army?

After accepting the mission, Might Guy led his students to meet up with the merchant caravan.

The caravan itself wasn't large, but it had an unusually high number of guards!

There were many samurai and shinobi, all of whom were quite skilled.

This made Might Guy feel a bit uneasy.

Why would a simple merchant caravan need so many guards just to protect one or two wagons?

"Guy-sensei, why are there so many guards?"

Lee asked in confusion, but Might Guy simply shook his head.

How would he know? If it weren't for the fact that he was given the mission details, including the location and the specific wagon they were guarding, he might have thought he was in the wrong place.

"It looks like this mission is going to be quite difficult. A lot of people must be after whatever is inside that wagon," Neji commented from the side.

He was about to activate his Byakugan to check the interior when Might Guy stopped him.

"Just focus on completing our mission."

Might Guy's tone was serious.

Before long, the caravan set off in a grand procession.

After traveling for a long time, they were finally approaching their destination.

Lee, who had been excited the whole way, now looked as deflated as a punctured ball.

"Guy-sensei, is this really just a regular escort mission?"

Lee asked in frustration, and Might Guy could only nod helplessly.

"Ahh, how can this be?"

Lee felt utterly disappointed. He had expected an exciting challenge.

"Hahaha, Lee, you should know that the reward for this mission is quite high. If we complete it successfully, it will greatly benefit the Leaf Village."

Might Guy reassured him. But just then—trouble struck!

Strange roars echoed from all directions, and suddenly, one summoned beast after another began attacking them!

The samurai and shinobi in the caravan immediately rushed forward to engage the enemy.

"Guy-sensei! We're actually being ambushed!"

Lee's eyes lit up with excitement—now this felt like an S-rank mission!

Meanwhile, Tenten couldn't help but twitch at the corner of her mouth.

Why was Lee actually happy about this? Wouldn't it be better to just complete the mission peacefully and claim the reward?

Why did things always have to get complicated?

Just as Lee was about to charge in, Might Guy grabbed him.

"Lee, our mission is to protect what's inside the wagon—not to fight those summoned beasts. Understood?"

"Ah, I understand, Guy-sensei! But if those summoned beasts attack us, then we can fight back, right?"

Lee asked excitedly. When he saw Might Guy nod, he became even more thrilled, jumping in place.

By this time, the summoned beasts had already clashed with the samurai and shinobi.

At first, it seemed like the samurai would easily overpower them, but unexpectedly, the summoned beasts effortlessly dodged their attacks.

Or rather, the attacks simply passed through them!

Meanwhile, the summoned beasts' strikes sent the samurai flying with ease.

"Byakugan!"

Without needing a reminder, Neji activated his Byakugan.

"They're not living creatures—they're like ghosts, but more solid and easier to see. They can also shift between intangible and tangible forms at will."

Neji was shocked. This was practically like every summoned beast having unlimited access to Kamui!

Though Neji didn't know about Kamui, he could tell that these summoned beasts were extremely tricky to deal with.

"Ghosts? That doesn't make sense—shinobi have souls, so why wouldn't animals? And if this is just summoning, then this is way too absurd," Tenten said anxiously.

"No wonder this mission was classified as potentially beyond S-rank! We can only harm them when they attack us!"

Neji's expression turned serious.

At that moment, Might Guy issued a command:

"Everyone, stay alert! Protect the wagon at all costs—don't let these creatures get close!"

"Eight Gates Released Formation—First Gate, Gate of Opening: Open!"

Lee, seeing his teacher take action, immediately followed suit.

Since the situation wasn't dire yet, they both only opened the Sixth Gate.

Even so, the strain of the Sixth Gate weighed heavily on their bodies.

"Lee! Let's go!"

With a loud battle cry, Might Guy charged forward.

Lee immediately followed.

At this moment, the vast difference between shinobi became apparent.

The other jonin, mostly from lesser-known places, were completely overwhelmed.

Each summoned beast required multiple shinobi to handle, and even then, they struggled.

But for Might Guy, it was a completely different story.

He tore through the battlefield like a wolf among sheep.

The summoned beasts actively avoided him, and those that got too close were instantly obliterated—one kick, one slap, instant destruction!

Even their ghostly forms didn't protect them.

Because these creatures weren't actually summoned beasts, nor were they just intangible entities.

They were pure ghosts—spirits that could materialize during attacks.

And as luck would have it, the Eight Gates were incredibly effective against ghosts!

It wasn't just Might Guy wreaking havoc—even Lee was decimating them!
