Chapter 255 Blue Flash
"So fast!"

The wariness on Explosion Release Hunter's face instantly froze, turning into incredulous astonishment. His life force rapidly drained away, his massive body convulsed violently, and then he collapsed.

"Lord Kari!"

"how so!"

Iwa ninja's eyes widened in horror, filled with terror and utter despair.

Their commander, whom they regarded as a god and whose reputation was illustrious, was actually pierced through the heart by Konoha's White Blood Demon in a direct confrontation!
This unbelievable scene struck like a bolt from the blue, deeply affecting the hearts of all the Iwa ninja.

The shadow of the annihilation of the previous generation of members of the Explosion Release Squad resurfaced in his mind.

Panic immediately spread throughout the remaining members of the Explosion-Style faction.

However, being an elite force of Iwagakure, their will to protect Iwagakure was not to be underestimated. They did not collapse immediately and still managed to form a decent defensive formation.

"Long live Umino-sama!"

"Blue Flash, tear apart all Iwa ninja!"

"Konoha's Iron Wall, invincible!"

"Konoha will win!"

In stark contrast to the panic of the Iwa ninja, the Konoha Allied Forces erupted in thunderous cheers. The fear on the faces of the Takigakure ninja vanished, replaced by the excitement of surviving a disaster and a fervent worship of Konoha's power.

Now that they have witnessed it with their own eyes, with just a flash of blue light, Explosion Release: Hunter was killed on the spot. Their awe of Umino Sasuke’s power immediately reached its peak, and they even called him the Blue Flash.

As a result, Sasuke Umino earned the title of "Blue Flash," following his previous titles of "White Blood Demon" and "Iron Wall of Konoha."

Amidst the cheers, Umino Sasuke remained unfazed, his brow furrowing slightly, his eyes sharp as an eagle's as he swept over the so-called "corpse" of the Explosion Release Hunter on the ground.

"Trying to launch a sneak attack? Dream on!"

Under the perception of the Sound Wave Escape, everything was clearly visible. Umino Sasuke thrust his sword directly into the ground beneath his feet, but it did not achieve any effect.

"What a brilliant underwater navigation technique!"

A cold glint flashed in Umino Sasuke's eyes as he continued to lock onto the life chakra fluctuations that were fleeing at an astonishing speed deep underground.

The life chakra fluctuations were exactly the same as those on Explosion Release: Hunter, only much weaker. Clearly, after suffering fatal injuries, Explosion Release: Hunter used the Iwagakure Forbidden Technique: Split Technique, similar to Orochimaru's Snake Shedding Substitution Technique, paying a huge price to achieve a miraculous escape and silently disappear underground.

As expected of a Kage-level expert, even a weak Kage is difficult to kill.

"What a brilliant Explosion Release Hunter!"

Sasuke Umino couldn't help but feel regretful. He had been a bit careless just now. If he had been more careful and left the Flying Thunder God mark on Explosion Release: Gari beforehand, Gari wouldn't have been able to escape even if he had wings.

"Strange power!"

Umino Sasuke relentlessly unleashed powerful punches at the ground where the Explosion Release: Hunting True Form was fleeing!

Boom! ! !

The earth collapsed, creating giant craters, and violent shockwaves traveled along the soil layers, attempting to interfere with or even injure the Explosion Hunters who were fleeing underground.

Explosion Release Hunter is extremely skilled in Earth Release. Even though he used the Split Technique and his strength was greatly reduced, he was still incredibly fast when he was focused on escaping.

Sasuke Umino's monstrous impact, though fierce and collapsing large sections of soil, failed to accurately hit the slippery Explosion Release: Hunting.

If a powerful being like Explosion Release Hunter is focused on escaping, it is indeed not so easy to kill him completely. A large number of physical earth clones are scattered, and for a moment, it is not even possible to distinguish which one is the real body.

Abandoning his pursuit of Explosion Release: Hunter, Umino Sasuke used Explosion Step to arrive in front of the corpse left behind by Explosion Release: Hunter.

Earth Release: Rock Stealing Spear!

As soon as his hands finished forming the hand seals, a thick, giant rock spear rose up from the ground.

The corpse of Explosion Release Hunter was hoisted high into the air, displayed like a trophy of war, exposed to the view of everyone on the battlefield. "Those who surrender will be spared! Those who resist, Explosion Release Hunter will meet their end!"

With his arms crossed and an arrogant expression, Umino Sasuke exuded the aura of a Konoha demon reborn.

"Whoever surrenders will avoid death!"

"Surrender without killing!"

"We won! Iwa ninja are finished!"

The Konoha Allied Forces erupted in deafening cheers once again, their momentum unstoppable.

Rock endures the influence of the Rock Guardian's will, and even when on the verge of collapse, it still perseveres.

Samehada, give me your chakra!

With his hands forming hand seals, Umino Sasuke finally unleashed his ultimate move that would decide the outcome of the battle.

"Water Release·Water Breaking Wave!"

In an instant, a high-pressure water blade sliced ​​through the remaining Iwa ninja's explosive escape defenses, instantly severing the earthen wall and causing heavy casualties among the Iwa ninja.

"Lord Hunting is dead! We're no match for him! Run!"

It is unclear who uttered these words that shook the morale of the troops, but they instantly triggered a chain reaction. The formation of the Iwa ninja finally loosened, and their morale collapsed at a visible speed.

The Iwa ninja looked up and saw the corpse being carried high, and then saw Umino Sasuke's overwhelming strength. Their last bit of resistance completely collapsed, and fear and despair spread like a plague.

"Escape!"

The army was defeated like a mountain.

The remnants of the Iwa ninja's Explosion Release technique completely lost their will to fight, abandoning their armor and weapons, and fled in disarray.

"All troops, launch an assault and annihilate all remaining enemy forces!"

Sasuke Unno gave the final order to pursue, and the Konoha Allied Forces, like tigers descending a mountain, launched a relentless pursuit of the routed Iwa ninja.

The sounds of shouting and screaming echoed continuously.

Even though the remnants of the Iwa ninja's Explosion Release technique scattered and fled, or even went into hiding, they had nowhere to escape under the tactical guidance of numerous shadow clones and were all wiped out.

The second Explosion Release unit, which Iwagakure had painstakingly rebuilt and placed high hopes on, was once again completely annihilated by Umino Sasuke and his forces on the land of Kagerou Village!

Once again, Explosion Release Hunter returned to Iwagakure alone, and this time it was even worse than before.

The battle at Yangyan Village was a resounding victory, almost a decisive one.

The village of Yangyan in the Land of Mountains is strategically located, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is a thorn in the side blocking the westward expansion of the Hidden Stone Village and an important barrier protecting the northern part of the Land of Fire.

"Tekudo, Inuzuka Ryo, Shiranui Ri!"

"Yes, Commander!"

"You three will lead your troops, join forces with the Takigakure ninja, and rely on the existing fortifications and captured supplies of Kagero Village to set up defenses on the spot. You must defend Kagero Village, gather and settle the Kagero villagers who are willing to surrender, and leave all the wounded to rest and recuperate."

"As ordered!"

Tekudo, Inuzuka Ryo, and Shiranui Ri knelt on one knee to receive the posting assignment.

Sasuke Umino kept the three of them behind to train them in the ability to withstand attacks.

Of the three, Tekudo is the weakest but the most experienced, while Shiranui Ri is the strongest. Her powerful talent is practically a carbon copy of another Moonlight Night, but she lacks experience and her temperament is not calm enough.

On the other hand, Ryo Inuzuka is quite good in both strength and temperament, and has the demeanor of a Konoha Jonin.
