"Hopefully, you'll still be saying that later, hee hee hee~"
Kushimaru Kuriarare, the user of the Longsword: Stitched Needle, had a cold glint in his eyes.
With the Longsword: Stitched Needle slung across his back, he rapidly formed hand seals, and a thick fog spread out!
Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique!
"Scream! Howl! Despair as you wait for the moment of death to arrive! Watching your guts spill out, watching your comrades fall one after another, watching the blood dye everything around you red, isn't it fun! You're looking forward to it too! Right!"
Kushimaru Kuriarare's twisted, perverted, and extremely excited voice sent chills down the spines of the Cloud Village ninjas.
Troy's eyes narrowed. He had originally wanted to delay for a bit.
Taking the opportunity to magnetize the ground beneath his feet, so that when the battle started, he could use the magnetized ground to gain some geographical advantage.
But the enemy acted too decisively, clearly understanding his methods quite well, and didn't give him such an opportunity at all!
Whoosh~
A sharp sound of something cutting through the air came from the right rear.
Kushimaru Kuriarare, holding the Exploding Blade: Splash, wore a cruel, ferocious smile on his face as he swung his blade towards the last Chunin in Yamanaka Kei's team!
Troy waved his hand, sending a series of square Shuriken towards his back.
The special Shuriken, imbued with Magnet Release, could magnetize the enemy or their weapons as long as they hit.
And his subsequent attacks containing magnetic force would be attracted to the magnetized enemy, making them impossible to dodge!
Boom~!
Amidst the violent explosion, the square Shuriken scattered in all directions.
Troy continuously released puffs of Chakra smoke from the Storage Scroll in his mouth, and his hands also waved a series of afterimages.
Countless square Shuriken, like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, shot towards the mist in all directions.
Ding~ Ding~
Two soft sounds of metal clashing made Troy's eyes flash with a sharp light.
Two giant square Shuriken, each more than half a person tall, immediately appeared in his hands, and he twisted his body to hurl them towards the enemy who had just been marked by the magnetic force.
Whoosh~
Two Water Clones dispersed under the attack.
More Water Clones, however, quietly took shape in the thick fog.
"Tsk~ Hidden Mist Ninja, everyone's a sneaky bastard, they have the numbers advantage and still use this kind of tactic..."
Yamanaka Kei muttered to himself inwardly.
He put on a look of being ready for anything, and slowly began to form hand seals with both hands.
Lightning Release: Spider Web!
He slammed his hand on the ground, and Lightning Release Chakra turned into spiderweb-like lightning, quickly spreading towards the surroundings shrouded in thick fog.
Crackling-
"Hmph!"
Several suppressed groans came from the surroundings.
A large number of Water Clones also dissipated under the Lightning Release attacks.
Nikai, the newly promoted Jonin who had been waiting in full force, and the remaining three Chunin immediately launched their Ninjutsu towards the direction of the lightning and sound!
But the enemies were equally quick, using their respective means to block the Ninjutsu before retreating back into the thick fog.
Water Clones disintegrated in the lightning, but they couldn't hit the enemies who had already hidden themselves again.
In the next moment, two towering Water Dragon Tornadoes attacked from the left and right.
A strong Chakra reaction came from the sky, and several sharks made of Water Release plunged down from above!
Faced with the Hidden Mist Ninja's long-planned attack, the group could only dodge.
Their gathered formation was also divided and destroyed by the enemy.
Clang clang clang clang-
A dense barrage of attacks followed closely.
One Hidden Mist Ninja after another launched a continuous attack that left no room to breathe!
Yamanaka Kei feigned a clumsy forward roll to dodge, raising his right arm to block a Kunai aimed straight at his neck.
Nikai and another Chunin, who had chosen to dodge in the same direction as him, quickly stood back-to-back and formed hand seals to perform their techniques, using Lightning Release to force back the two ninjas attacking from behind.
Before the crackling sound of the Lightning Release could fade.
Water Blades, Water Needles, Shuriken, and Kunai attacked from all directions.
The group's vision was obstructed, and they could only dodge in panic in the face of the attacks from the thick fog.
In just under a minute, the three of them had already sustained several wounds.
"Senior, what do we do now?"
At this moment, Nikai decisively abandoned his own thinking and passed the problem to Yamanaka Kei.
Perhaps it was because of the previous reminder.
He now had complete trust in this senior, who was slightly weaker in strength but rich in experience.
"Prepare to follow my orders and break through forward!"
Yamanaka Kei glanced at Nikai speechlessly.
Is this guy really a Jonin?
Does the Cloud Village's Jonin only look at strength and not brains?
Just now, they were not only passively being beaten, but also waiting for the enemy to move.
Through the threat of Troy, the Magnet Release Bloodline Limit ninja, they were pulling the enemy's top combat power to prepare for the upcoming breakthrough.
"Good!"
Nikai's mind had already shut down.
Just like when he was a Chunin, he would do whatever the Jonin leading the team said.
Boom!
A violent explosion, accompanied by the whistling of square Shuriken, came from the direction Troy and the others had moved.
The small square Shuriken that Troy had scattered earlier, either falling into the sea or sticking into the ground, were drawn by Magnet Release, turning into a whirling Shuriken storm.
It directly forced back several Hidden Mist Ninja who were constantly attacking!
Kushimaru Kuriarare and Kushimaru Kuriarare, who dared not touch these square Shuriken with their ninja swords, also retreated a distance.
"Run!"
Yamanaka Kei shouted in a low voice, forming hand seals and casting Lightning Illusion: Lightning Pillar.
A strong lightning glow emanated from his body, piercing through the thick fog.
It pointed out the direction of their location for Troy, who was ready to break through.
The moment his voice fell, the light of Lightning Release: Lightning Strike crackled in Nikai's hands, and he charged forward.
Another Chunin followed closely behind him.
Receiving the signal, Troy immediately used Magnet Release with all his strength, advancing towards Yamanaka Kei's location.
Kushimaru Kuriarare and Kushimaru Kuriarare, who had already retreated a distance, moved at the same time.
Kushimaru Kuriarare flicked the Longsword: Stitched Needle in his hand, pointing directly at Yamanaka Kei, who was as bright as a light bulb!
Clang!
Yamanaka Kei raised his hand to block, 'staggering' as he received this sudden blow.
Seeing this, Troy, who was rushing forward, kicked at the Longsword: Stitched Needle, wanting to take the opportunity to magnetize the opponent's weapon.
However, a sharp blade of light slashed directly at him, who was in the air and unable to dodge.
Just as Troy was about to block this attack with a Shuriken, his pupils shrank when he saw the appearance of the longsword.
Exploding Blade: Splash!
That Kushimaru Kuriarare, he didn't have time to attack, so he threw the Exploding Blade over first!
"Go!"
At the critical moment, Yamanaka Kei grabbed Troy's belt, forcibly throwing him towards Nikai's direction!
Exploding Blade: Splash also landed in the air.
Boom!
Under the violent explosion, Yamanaka Kei tried his best to curl up his body, enduring the blow head-on.
While his figure was forced back, he rolled to dodge, and then bounced up without stopping, blocking the Kunai attack from behind, and then leaned sideways, bending over and advancing instead of retreating, avoiding the silent Water Blade from behind.
The two Cloud Village Chunin who had been closely following Troy were only slightly slower to react and were caught in the explosion of the Exploding Blade: Splash.
Facing the Hidden Mist Ninja's sudden attack that followed closely behind.
One was pierced through the temple by a Kunai and died on the spot.
Even though the remaining one barely dodged one attack, another Hidden Mist Ninja slashed open his abdomen, and his intestines spilled all over the ground as he evaded.
The explosive impact dispersed the dense fog around the Exploding Blade: Splash for a moment.
Seeing Yamanaka Kei's critical situation, Troy still wanted to rush back to rescue him, but he heard his old teammate's urgent shout in his ear.
"Retreat!"
Looking at that figure facing away from him, hands forming seals, once again releasing Lightning Release: Spider Web to block the enemy's pursuit.
Troy felt the determination and perseverance on his teammate's body!
After forming seals with both hands and using a large Magnetic Release Shuriken storm to once again block the enemy's pursuit, he gritted his teeth and rushed towards the direction where Nikai was breaking through.
"Perfect! Perfect! I can finally die!"
Looking at the dense fog that had reassembled, the smile on Yamanaka Kei's face was even harder to suppress than an AK.
After releasing another large-scale Lightning Release, he pretended to be exhausted.
Staggering, he dodged the attacks of the surrounding Hidden Mist Ninja.
His figure actively approached the location of Kushimaru Kuriarare, the user of the Exploding Blade: Splash.
Kushimaru Kuriarare, who originally wanted to pursue Troy, saw an enemy voluntarily coming to his door, and without thinking, he launched a sweeping attack.
Demonic Illusion: False Surroundings Technique!
When Yamanaka Kei's eyes met Kushimaru Kuriarare's gaze, he briefly confused the opponent's vision with a C-rank Genjutsu.
The Storage Scroll on his left hand burst open with Chakra smoke.
The corpse of his original body, Sesei, directly crashed into the Exploding Blade: Splash.
And he himself used the Flying Thunder God Technique to flash and disappear into the dense fog.
Boom~
A large amount of fragmented limbs and flesh exploded!
Kushimaru Kuriarare, who came from the Bloody Mist Village and was inherently cruel, wore a cruel and bloodthirsty grin on his face.
Without even looking at the scattered pieces of the corpse.
He turned around and, together with Kushimaru Kuriarare, chased after Troy and the others who were fleeing!
~ Greatly changing the fate trajectory of a supporting character, slightly interfering with the development process of the world line, obtaining: Trait Extraction Opportunity ×1, Trait Gifting Opportunity ×1.
Relying on the trait [Silent Walker] to conceal his aura.
Yamanaka Kei, who had merged into the seawater with the Water Transformation Technique, watched the Cloud Village Ninja and Hidden Mist Ninja go away, with a piece of ship wreckage engraved with the Flying Thunder God mark on top of him.
Hearing the system prompt in his mind, he blinked in confusion.
Whose fate has this changed?
Troy? Nikai?
