If you're not careful, the end of the kunai you painstakingly parried might be strapped with an explosive tag, and it could blow you to smithereens before you even have time to react.
Shouts and battle cries filled the air as the two ninjas unleashed their pent-up rage, slaughtering each other with reckless abandon.
puff!
The agonizing scream that had just escaped his lips was cut short. He clutched his neck with both hands, his breath coming in gasps as his pupils dilated. A life had ended just like that, under the cold ninja tools.
Battles and carnage unfolded in every corner of the battlefield, with lives disappearing more frequently than falling petals.
In less than a quarter of an hour, they encountered a small group of Konoha troops from the main force of the Hidden Cloud Village ninja army, and all of them were killed.
Although the ratio of casualties between Konoha ninjas and Kumogakure ninjas was about 1:2, even with this ratio, the final winner would only be Kumogakure, which had 1.5 troops.
Fire Release: Toad Oil Flame Bullet!
On the battlefield not far away, Jiraiya stood atop Gamabunta's head and unleashed a Fire Release ninjutsu at the Cloud Ninja troops below.
The stronger ninjas dodged, the slightly weaker ones were unable to dodge and were injured, while the weakest ones could only become dead souls under the flames.
Jiraiya's attack claimed the lives of nearly 50 ninja from the Cloud Village.
Of course, there were almost no Cloud Ninja with Jonin-level strength among them; Chunin and Genin became the main victims.
Honestly, in ninja wars, genin are absolutely cannon fodder, chunin are just slightly larger ants, and only jonin have some ability to protect themselves.
However, the number of genin on the Cloud Ninja side was simply too large. Out of a base of 1.5 people, at least 1 were at the genin level.
Even though Jiraiya's single ninjutsu could kill 50 or more genin, he would still need to unleash a similar ninjutsu like the Toad Oil Flame Bullet more than 200 times to turn the tide of battle on his own!
Clearly, with Jiraiya's chakra reserves, he couldn't do it.
Moreover, the Third Raikage, or even a Jonin from Kumogakure, would not stand idly by and watch Jiraiya commit massacres.
"Jiraiya, I am your opponent!"
"The Sandaime Raikage!"
Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, the Third Raikage quickly found Jiraiya, and a large open space was soon cleared around them for the two to engage in a true 1v1 battle.
Clearly, neither the ninjas from Konoha nor those from Kumogakure wanted to get involved.
The aftershocks of a battle between top-tier fighters can kill some weaker ninjas; only those who are bored and have nothing better to do would get involved.
Three-handed strike!
The Third Raikage, his entire body crackling with lightning in his Lightning Release chakra mode and clad in Lightning Release armor, raised three fingers, his entire being resembling a spear, and charged toward Jiraiya at incredible speed.
In order to end the battle quickly, the Third Raikage abandoned the probing attack and immediately used his killing move!
Standing atop Gamabunta's head, Jiraiya, with the advantage of summoning beasts, didn't hesitate and unleashed several ninjutsu from above towards the Third Raikage.
Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Technique!
Earth escape technique: Earth dragon bullet!
Combination Ninjutsu: Earth Dragon Flame Stream!
He used two ninjutsu in quick succession, and then combined them together. The earth dragon soared into the sky and rushed towards the Third Raikage, while continuously spewing scorching flames from its mouth.
Having been trained by Hiruzen Sarutobi, Jiraiya naturally knew how to use Hiruzen Sarutobi's signature combination ninjutsu.
At his peak, Hiruzen Sarutobi established his title as a hero of the ninja world during the Second Shinobi World War by relying on this flashy and exceptionally powerful combination ninjutsu.
"Ah, what a familiar move!"
As the Third Raikage sprinted forward, he was filled with emotion, recalling the scene when he fought Hiruzen Sarutobi in the past.
However, the Third Raikage did not slow down. Knowing the power of this move, he was not afraid at all, because he knew that this combination of ninjutsu could not do anything to him.
Just as the Third Raikage was about to rush up to Jiraiya, he suddenly frowned and looked down at his feet.
Earth Escape·Yellow Quan Marsh!
This was an Earth Release ninjutsu that Jiraiya secretly released under the cover of the combination ninjutsu he had just used to restrict the Third Raikage's movement.
Clearly, the Third Raikage has fallen victim to this attack.
boom!
A giant earthen dragon, over ten meters long, spewed flames and plunged down from the sky, instantly engulfing the Third Raikage.
Whoosh!
However, the Third Raikage, who resembled a spear, burst out of the center of Jiraiya's combined ninjutsu, his entire body crackling with lightning.
The three fingers that were once held together became two, and the person's speed increased again.
Two-ball slam!
puff!
The Third Raikage struck with deadly force, shattering Gamabunta's flesh and blood, and then leaped into the air, charging towards Jiraiya, who was standing atop Gamabunta's head.
Bang.
With a soft sound, Gamabunta, who was seriously injured in one blow, glanced apologetically at Jiraiya, and then, due to his severe injuries, reversed his summoning and returned to Mount Myōboku.
With his major support gone, Jiraiya was in freefall, his body about to crash into the Third Raikage's two-handed hand!
If the impact is solid, Jiraiya will have no chance of anything other than death!
But then, Jiraiya raised his hands and condensed a Rasengan, which then expanded several times in size, like an inflating balloon.
Dayama Rasengan!
Bending over and lifting his hips, Jiraiya slammed his raised hands down, the Giant Rasengan colliding with the Third Raikage...
boom!
With a deafening roar in the sky, Jiraiya was thrown into the air, while the Third Raikage was slammed to the ground like a cannonball.
With a nimble backflip, Jiraiya landed steadily.
However, due to inertia, Jiraiya still bent over, spread his legs, and slid backward a distance with his right hand gripping the ground before stopping.
Before Jiraiya could even breathe a sigh of relief, he felt as if a sharp blade was lodged in his back, making him shudder instantly.
Ninja Technique: Needle Jizo!
Jiraiya's long hair suddenly hardened and pierced the ground, protecting his entire body.
Even so, Jizo's defense was still too weak when facing the Third Raikage's two-handed penetrating dagger.
puff!
A soft thud sounded as the Third Raikage broke through Jiraiya's defenses, his right hand, with two fingers together, plunging deep into Jiraiya's chest!
But then, the Third Raikage frowned as Jiraiya broke through his Lightning Release Armor defense at the same time.
Ninja Art: Needle Hell!
A few strands of Jiraiya's hair suddenly stood up, breaking through the Third Raikage's Lightning Release armor and piercing into the Third Raikage's chest flesh in a few moments.
In order to protect himself, the Third Raikage abandoned the idea of further penetrating Jiraiya's wound and instead chose to retreat.
If they had retreated even a little later, even if the Third Raikage had managed to pierce Jiraiya's heart, the Third Raikage would have followed in Jiraiya's footsteps and died from a pierced heart as well.
Trading one for one is not a good deal for the Third Raikage.
Similarly, Jiraiya did this after weighing the pros and cons.
After a brief exchange, both Jiraiya and the Third Raikage were injured.
The stimulation of blood made the two even more excited, and a new round of bloody confrontation followed!
The Third Raikage's two fingers, which had been joined together, became one finger, and the One-Finger Spear, representing the strongest spear, appeared!
Jiraiya was equally unwilling to be outdone. He bit his right hand and slammed it to the ground, instantly releasing a series of plumes of smoke.
Hama Jian, Hama Guang, and Tiebi Hama appeared one after another.
Without hesitation, Jiraiya formed hand seals and leaped onto Gamaken's head.
"Gamaken, Gamahiro, Iron-Armed Gama, I'll have to trouble you guys from now on!" Jiraiya tossed his long hair. "Please buy me three minutes!"
"Understood!" X3
Gamaken didn't move, while Gamahiro and Iron-Armed Gama faced off against the Third Raikage who was charging towards Jiraiya.
Before Jiraiya can gather natural energy and enter Sage Mode, they must do their utmost to shield him from the Third Raikage!
Chapter 161 400km Long-Range Guided Tailed Beast Ball! (Seeking monthly votes!)
A minute may be very short, and there's only so much you can do in a minute.
Three minutes can feel like a long time; it might just be the time it takes to say a few words before the time slips away.
However, the three minutes that Jiraiya spent preparing for Sage Mode seemed a little long.
The Third Raikage's One-Hit Sumo technique is just too powerful!
Its attack power is mainly concentrated on one point. When combined with the Third Raikage's extreme speed and unparalleled application of Lightning Release chakra, its power is even greater.
If we had to give a concrete idea, the power of the One-Hit Hand technique far surpasses that of Wind Release: Rasenshuriken!
Moreover, the One-Hit Kill Technique doesn't just stop working after the first strike; it allows the Third Raikage to maintain this state until he's exhausted.
The One-Hit Punch, whose attack power surpasses that of Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, is only reflected in its single-target attack power, but its extremely long duration still makes up for the One-Hit Punch's lack of attack power against multiple targets.
Moreover, due to the extremely long duration, the Third Raikage at this time is absolutely exceptionally difficult to deal with!
Bang.
After two sprints, Gamahiro was sent back to Mount Myoboku.
Bang.
After two more sprints, the Iron-Armed Toad couldn't hold on any longer and was sent back to Mount Myōboku.
"Come on, let me see if your attack can break through my shield!"
Gamaken pulled out a huge shield from behind and placed it in front of him the instant the Third Raikage lunged forward.
when!
A sickeningly loud impact rang out. Although Gamaken's massive shield blocked the Third Raikage's One-Hit Punch, a large gap appeared in the shield.
