Chapter 18 Between crises
Under the faint moonlight, figures were swaying around, and the occasional wind was mixed with a strong smell of blood.
At this moment, the Konoha camp was filled with noisy shouts of killing, and the constant sound of jingling sharp weapons being exchanged, occasionally mixed with the sound of explosions from two detonating talismans.
Countless Kirigakure ninjas continued to attack the camp from all directions. The casualties of the defensive Konoha ninjas continued to increase, and they were forced to retreat continuously, which naturally included Riuyu and his group.
In the southeast corner of the camp, Haiyi Squadron and some other Konoha ninjas were responsible for guarding this place until they received new orders. However, because the enemy had an absolute numerical advantage, it was very difficult for the Konoha ninjas to defend. In particular, the three of them, Liu Yu, received special care from an elite jounin from the enemy.
"snort!!!"
Looking at the three people of Ryukyu who were on guard, the scar-faced Kirigakure Jonin snorted coldly.
Tap tap tap! ! !
The sound of footsteps kept sounding.
But it was the scar-faced Kirigakure Jonin who bullied him and attacked again, but this time he obviously left some attention on his feet to prevent Riuyu from stumbling him again like he just did.
This time, Liu Yu didn't try to use blades of grass to slow down the enemy's movements. Since the enemy was on guard, don't waste chakra on useless things.
Seeing the Kirigakure Jōnin in front of him, the three of them did not dare to neglect and stepped back.
The scar-faced Kirigakure jounin glanced at the three people who were separated, then selected a target and attacked Riuyu. Seeing this, Liu Yu quickly formed seals with his hands while retreating.
-Xu-Yin-Si-Chou-Wei-Si-Hai-
"Bamboo Escape, Dragon Tooth Thorn"
Chi! ! !
On the way forward, Scarface Kirigakure Jonin suddenly protruded from the ground with a sharp bamboo. The sharp bamboo tip pointed directly at Scarface's heart. Scarface couldn't dodge and directly hit it.
boom! ! !
Following the sound, a burst of smoke rose.
Looking closely, the scarred face pierced by the sharp bamboo turned into a thick log at some point.
"What a quick substitute technique." Liu Yu marveled in his heart, but if his real body didn't come to him, where did it go?
"Asuma, be careful." At this time, Kurenai on one side warned loudly, and everyone quickly stepped forward to support him. Ryuyu on the other side also hurriedly supported him after hearing Kurenai's reminder.
The scar-faced Kirigakure jounin who was hiding in the surrounding tents suddenly popped out, pointing the short blade directly at Asuma.
Poof! ! !
It was the sound of sharp blades breaking through flesh and blood.
Fortunately, after being reminded by Kurenai, Asuma evaded in time and avoided the vital parts. However, Asuma's right arm was still scratched with a very deep gash.
boom! ! !
After realizing that one blow could not completely kill Asuma, the scar-faced Kirigakure jounin took advantage of the situation and kicked Asuma to the side towards the two Ryūha who were running towards him.
Tsk tsk tsk!
The force of this blow was so great that Asuma's body rubbed against the ground and made a squeaking sound. Kurenai rushed over and hurriedly stabilized Asuma, while Liuyu looked at the sword with a playful look on his face. The scar-faced Kirigakure jounin.
"This guy is definitely at the top even among the Kirigakure Jōnin."
Asuma was originally a little weak due to the poison just now, but now that he was hit hard by this, it seemed that he had completely lost his fighting ability.
"Hmph! The game is over," the scar-faced Kirigakure jonin put away his two short blades and looked at the three people in front of him and said gloomily.
Chou-shen-mao-zi-zi-hai-you, I saw the scar-faced Kirigakure jounin flipping his hands up and down quickly, forming one seal after another.
"Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet Technique"
After sealing, the scar-faced Kirigakure jounin took a deep breath and spit it out to the people in Konoha in front of him.
I saw a huge stream of water rushing towards the three people in the shape of a giant dragon.
"Trouble!" Liu Yu muttered when he saw this, but his hands were indeed forming seals at an extremely fast speed.
"Bamboo Escape, Thousand Bamboo Shield"
After sealing, Liu Yu slammed the ground at a very fast speed. As the ground continued to vibrate, hundreds of strong bamboo branches burst out of the ground in an instant, criss-crossing and braiding in front of Liu Yu and others.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The water dragon bullets constantly hit the Thousand Bamboo Shield summoned by Liu Yu, like a small boat in the strong wind and huge waves, which will be hit by the huge waves at any time.
"With this amount of chakra, this kind of combat experience, and this kind of response speed, it is obvious that he is an elite jounin of Kirigakure. What do you mean when you say that you don't go to Konoha jounin to bully us juniors? ?”
Liu Yu couldn't help but murmured in his heart as he listened to the rushing sound of the water dragon bullet impacting the Thousand Bamboo Shield.
In the end, the divine water dragon bullet failed to break Liu Yu's Thousand Bamboo Shield, and the boat in the huge waves finally ushered in the rain and the sky cleared up.
tread! tread! tread!
"Be careful, he's coming up again!"
Through Zhu Dun's perception, Liu Yu reminded the people around him.
On the other side, when the war started, Orochimaru rushed out of the conference room and rushed to the gate of the camp. However, not long after he walked out, he was blocked by a bad old man who appeared in front of him.
"Orochimaru, where do you want to go?" The old man across from him narrowed his eyes and asked. He didn't even take Orochimaru, one of the so-called "legendary three ninjas" who had been famous for a long time, in his eyes.
Orochimaru looked at the old man who suddenly appeared in front of him with a wary expression. The old man in front of him was wearing a gray robe, staring at him with squinted eyes, his hair and beard were all white, he looked like a dying man who didn't know when he would step into the coffin.
However, Orochimaru did not look down upon the old man just because of his decayed look. If nothing else happens, the old man in front of him is the guy sent by Kirigakure to stop him this time. He still doesn't know what his opponent is capable of, so it's better to be careful.
Orochimaru looked at the smiling old man in front of him, but he really couldn't remember who the old man in front of him was. Among the information obtained about important figures in Kirigakure, there was no information about the old man in front of him at all.
In fact, this is also caused by Kirigakure's severe external blockade. Except for foreign wars, the exchanges between the Kingdom of Water and other countries are basically zero. It has become very difficult for ninjas from other countries to obtain information about Kirigakure.
"The old man in front of me is very strong!" This was the conclusion Orochimaru came to after carefully looking at him. He felt a little uneasy about this old man. There was a terrifying power hidden under the old man's thin body. This powerful force The power is not like what a dying person can possess.
"Second order, everyone will retreat to the Fire Country in an orderly and alternate manner, with the medical team evacuating first, with Yamanaka Haiichi as the temporary commander." Orochimaru said to the elite jounin such as Haiichi who ran out of the conference room with him next to him. said.
Kirigakure on the opposite side now occupies an absolute advantage in combat power and numbers. The longer the fight continues, the greater the casualties on our side will be. All we can do now is to withdraw to the Country of Fire for follow-up.
As for yourself? Then let's stay for a while to see what's weird about this bad old man. Thinking of this, Orochimaru's narrow vertical eyes flashed with a hint of evil.
On the other side, the northeastern area of the camp.
Under the dark night, a cold light flashed.
Poof! ! !
A Kodachi pierced the heart of a Kirigakure Jonin from behind.
"Okay! So fast."
The Kirigakure Jonin who was pierced through the heart said unconsciously in his heart.
At the same time, he wanted to turn around in pain and see clearly the face of the person who attacked him. Although he had already made some guesses, he still wanted to see what the devil everyone in Kirigakure said about him looked like. .
After turning around in pain, what caught the Kirigakure ninja's eyes were three pairs of magatama spinning rapidly in his scarlet pupils.
Poof!
Shisui took out the kodachi in his hand. The body of the Kirigakure ninja, which had lost its support, slowly fell to the ground. Blood slowly poured out from the wound, and the green leaves on the ground were also stained with a hint of scarlet.
After killing the Kirigakure ninja, Shisui did not immediately look for the next target, but looked warily at the four people who appeared not far away and did not know when.
Due to the angle of the position, the moon was behind the four people, and it was a little reflective for a while. Shisui couldn't see the appearance of the four people clearly. However, Shisui instinctively felt a hint of danger from the four people. It seemed that the four people in front of him were not ordinary people.
As the four people slowly approached, Shisui was finally able to see their faces clearly. When he saw that everyone was holding a 'knife' of different shapes, Zhisui couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, they actually sent out these people to deal with me.
Although he didn't know the people on the other side, looking at the weapons in their hands, Shisui also knew who Kirigakure had sent to deal with him this time.
"In order to deal with me, four of the seven ninja swordsmen of Kirigakure Village were dispatched at once. This is really a generous move!"
Looking at the four people approaching, Zhisui couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"He is indeed the strongest man in Uchiha in Konoha, who is known as Shunshen Shisui. His courage alone is admirable," a big fat man in the lead said in admiration.
When Zhisui heard this, he only became more wary of the people in front of him.
"Let me introduce myself first. After all, it is very rude to fight against a strong person without knowing his name. I am the Watermelon Mountain Fugu Demon among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. The weapon I use is the Great Sword Samehada." The fat man led the way. He cracked a smile, but it was filled with a deep chill.
"Beheading sword, Loquat Juuzang." The first person on the left side of the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost said calmly. This person had short hair, no eyebrows, and a set of sharp teeth.
"A dull knife can cut through the grass and bait people." said the second person to the left of the puffer fish ghost in Xigua Mountain. After finishing speaking, his eyes were staring straight at Shisui, with a strong and undisguised fighting spirit in his eyes.
Seeing that all three people had finished introducing themselves, Shisui turned his attention to the last person on the right of the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon. The detailed information about Kirigakure's seven ninja swordsmen is also a very important piece of information.
"Thunder Fang, Black Hoe Thunder Fang" noticed Shisui's gaze, and the last person replied lightly. After speaking, he also stared at Shisui curiously, regarding the 'Konoha Demon' that the ninjas below called him. , he was still very interested.
"Trouble!" Zhisui couldn't help but muttered as the four people across from him focused their eyes on him.
Hand - move - divide - cut - line
PS: Water Release Water Dragon Bullet seems to be the ninjutsu with the most seals in the Naruto series, requiring a total of forty-four seals. They are: Chou-Shen-Mao-Zi-Hai-You-Chou-Wu-You-Zi-Yin-Xu-Yin-Si-Chou-Wei-Si-Hai-Wei-Zi-Ren-Shen-You-Chen -You-Chou-Wu-Wei-Yin-Si-Zi-Shen-Mao-Hai-Chen-Wei-Zi-Chou-Shen-You-Ren-Zi-Hai-You.
The second generation Hokage simplified the seals, and Itachi also simplified the seals when he read Kabuto's ninjutsu and used the water dragon bullet (but it cannot be ruled out that Itachi formed the seals too quickly).
