Chapter 137 Anxiety (1)
Unfortunately, Yukito's confidence soon wavered when he led his troops into the border of the Land of Fire.
Especially when she saw with her own eyes that all the Cloud Ninja troops that rushed in outside the snowy forest at the border were instantly engulfed by the detonation traps and the sound of the murderous ninja tools breaking through the air, she had to put aside her previous underestimation of the enemy.
Boom.
Boom.
The strong flames flickered continuously, and large tracts of trees fell one after another. The silent winter night was violently torn apart by the sudden war in just a few minutes. The shock waves and loud noises produced by the explosion inevitably startled waves of birds living in the forest nearby.
At this time, the Cloud Ninja troops, who suffered a head-on blow, finally became alert at the forefront and no longer mindlessly attacked the snowy forest.
"What's going on? There are still Konoha defenders here?"
Yu Muren looked at the troops in front with a frosty face. As soon as they entered the border of the Land of Fire, they were strongly blocked. At this moment, the troops in front had sent out perception ninjas to quickly investigate the enemy situation.
Not only she, but most of the Cloud Ninjas were somewhat caught off guard by the blockage in this place.
You know, before them, there had been a vanguard of several hundred people who had explored the road. In addition, Konoha was empty at this time. Under such circumstances, why were there still Konoha ninjas stationed at the border?
The Cloud Ninja Vanguard of several hundred people, could it be that they could not even eliminate the border ninja garrison of a few people?
Are the hundreds of people in the vanguard playing with snakes?
"Be careful, there are still many detonating traps ahead!!"
At this time, several perception ninjas in the Cloud Ninja Corps, after exploring the situation inside the snow forest, loudly reminded everyone: "The number of enemies is about 40 to 50, but preliminary estimates show that most of them are shadow clones..."
After hearing this news, a front-line Cloud Ninja Corps squad leader suddenly realized something. He first turned his head to look at Yukito not far behind him, and found that the tall and proud female ninja with her arms folded seemed to be in some kind of contemplation at this time. Seeing that she did not show any objection, he breathed a sigh of relief and then waved his arm gently.
Then, at his signal, more than a dozen elite Cloud Ninjas in the crowd behind quickly leaped forward.
Standing in a row, facing the direction of the snow forest, they began to form seals in tacit understanding.
"Lightning Release: Thunder Domain Flood Wave!!!"
As the seal was completed, a burst of hissing lightning suddenly formed on the palms of dozens of cloud ninjas that pushed out horizontally, gathering and entwining on their arms and swarming out. These dozens of thick lightning snake currents soon converged together to form a larger range of lightning spider webs, rushing straight into the snow forest with great momentum.
Rumble.
A larger snow fog rose up, and the violent current swallowed up the area of dozens of meters in a devastating manner. After the ravages, a large area of scorched earth was formed.
Violently destroying everything is the consistent style of the Cloud Hidden Village.
"A large number of shadow clones of the enemy in front have been completely destroyed..."
Seeing that their own lightning release combination ninjutsu not only destroyed the trap, but also directly changed the terrain in front, several perception ninjas in the Cloud Ninja Corps looked as if they were not surprised. One of the capable cloud ninjas with short golden hair quickly used the perception ninjutsu, and after a brief exploration of the vicinity, he immediately reported to the squad leader and Yukito next to him.
"Keep going."
"Yes."
As the captain gave the order, large numbers of Cloud Ninjas stepped onto the scorched earth and began to move forward.
On the other side, Yukito looked at the direction deeper into the snow forest, with a strange look on his face, as if he had noticed something unusual. For some reason, there seemed to be a strange chakra resonance in the distance. This strange feeling, which seemed to be there and not there, was full of violence. It was the violent chakra aura similar to that of the tailed beast in her body, the two-tailed Matatake.
Since she had just mastered the power of the tailed beast through hard training recently, although she had been able to completely suppress the influence of her own tailed beast chakra, the strange resonance in front of her at this time vaguely affected the violent chakra aura of the two-tailed beast in her body.
"Master Yukito..."
The captain of the Cloud Ninja Force hesitated after finding that his commander-in-chief looked a little strange, but still stepped forward to report: "What we just encountered should be a trap set up just to slow down our progress. It is estimated that the enemy's real body should not be nearby..."
The shadow clones are very common means in war to lure the enemy to set up a maze.
So the judgment of the Cloud Ninja Captain is quite reasonable. After hearing this, Yukito agreed with his speculation in his heart, but he said coldly: "Since you know, why don't you immediately notify the team to slow down the speed of advancement?"
While speaking, Yukito suddenly put down his hands, and then swung his arms, and two claw-shaped weapons suddenly extended from his five fingers.
After that, he simply ignored the Cloud Ninja Captain, moved his body, and disappeared on the spot.
After a few jumps, he was ready to chase the troops in front...
The captain looked embarrassed and opened his mouth, but he was very depressed. Glancing at the endless stream of people behind him, he was about to shout to the team to slow down and be careful of the traps ahead, when something unexpected happened.
Swish——
Directly ahead, deep in the snowy forest, a giant water cannon shell suddenly rushed towards him with a strong gust of wind.
Where the water cannonball passed, it lifted up a bunch of forest trees and also raised a large area of snow and fog. The Cloud Ninjas who were walking in the front, after discovering the sudden giant water attack, were ready to dodge in a panic, but the water cannonball with a diameter of dozens of meters was too wide and almost impossible to avoid.
Bang.
The giant water cannonball hit the Cloud Ninjas in an instant, and then exploded, forming a water wave that covered the sky and the sun...
The flood came suddenly, and soon, it washed away a large number of Cloud Ninjas.
Just as everyone was preparing to search for the target, the earth suddenly trembled, and then a huge monster leaped over from the distant horizon and landed right in front of them.
"Bunta, your water ninjutsu power doesn't seem to have improved much..."
The red scar-eyed toad wearing a kimono and holding a pipe, with a blond man in a divine robe standing on his head, the teasing voice was undoubtedly from him.
"Stop talking nonsense, Minato. I sacrificed my time playing cards to be called here by you.
Hurry up, I'm busy..."
Gamabunta's huge body and bell-like eyes looked down at the large group of cloud ninjas below. Although the densely packed enemies seemed to have no end, it ignored them and spit out big eye circles slowly.
Afterwards, he refuted the blond man on his head with some dissatisfaction.
"...Gamabun Summoning Beast?!"
"It's the golden flash of Konoha!! The fourth generation Hokage Minato Namikaze actually appeared here in person?!!"
Although this way of appearance was considered light and indifferent in the eyes of Minato Namikaze, it was still extremely shocking in the eyes of the cloud ninjas. Especially, when someone discovered that the blond man standing on the top of Bunta's head was actually the Hokage of Konoha, even though there were thousands of people on his side, it still caused many cloud ninjas to panic subconsciously.
On the other side, with the cold full moon above his head, Namikaze Minato's handsome face was full of indifference. At the same time, his azure blue eyes quickly passed over the group of cloud ninjas below, and soon he found the figure of a running female ninja with long blond hair and braids...
