A comic book journey to see the Eye of Antiquity

Kakashi and Asuma called out to each other, but this time they weren't heading forward. Instead, they gathered chakra beneath their feet, stepped onto the water's surface, and walked towards the sea.

Since Dazna and his family were just ordinary people, they had no choice but to follow the agreement beforehand: six men would take turns carrying Dazna and Inari, while Sakura and Ino would take turns carrying Dazna's daughter.

Originally, he was supposed to be a man of few words, but he didn't need to say anything to make things worse.

After all, he was a Jonin, but the sudden loss of his left hand was only a limited reduction in his overall strength, not enough to make him one of those to be laid off.

"Whoosh!"

After walking for a long time, Xingsige could no longer see the shore behind him. Listening to the waves in the darkness, it would be quite boring if he didn't have anyone to accompany him.

Even if it weren't for the bright stars and the clear moon shining in the sky, walking on the sea in complete darkness would be quite frightening.

"It's time to change direction."

Kakashi, who was walking at the front, carried Tazna on his back and gestured to the bridge, saying that they were heading towards the Land of Water, which was on the other side of the Land of Waves. They would have to go around to the Land of Fire to reach the bridge.

Don't forget that Tazna built this bridge to connect with the Land of Fire, allowing the Land of Waves to trade with the Land of Fire. Otherwise, Konoha's Shinobi might not have gone to such lengths to help him.

If Tazna's bridge is meant to connect with the Land of Water, it would be a miracle if the people of Konoha didn't cause trouble.

Which way should we go?

Asuma, carrying Inari on his back, couldn't help but ask a question after hearing Kakashi's words.

"I do not know either."

Kakashi looked up at the starry sky, but finally said he didn't know either.

If you ask him to simply look at the directions, that's fine, but if you ask him to determine his location by observing celestial phenomena, then you're really giving him too much credit.

"Never mind, you can get to the bridge from any direction anyway, it's just a matter of how long the journey is 々〃."

Finally, they chose a direction and walked out. Anyway, even if the Land of Waves wasn't round, the road they were on was round, so no matter which way they went, they could reach the bridge.

"Zabuza was right. The Konoha ninjas are indeed extraordinary. They managed to break through such a sudden attack, and with such a powerful formation at that."

Just then, six figures suddenly appeared on the shore; they were the other six Jonin among the rogue ninja.

"Shouldn't we catch up?"

One of the Jonin said, "It's a pity they actually thought of going by sea. What a waste of all our preparations."

It turned out that there were traps not only in the direction Kakashi and his group were heading, but also in the opposite direction where these six Jonin were lying in ambush. It could be said that no matter which path they chose, it would be a mistake. Fortunately, on Asuma's advice, they chose the sea route, which rendered the rogue ninjas' preparations completely useless.

"Let's go, let's hurry up and take care of them so we can go back and plunder the Land of Waves and Gato's money, and women."

Another Jonin stepped forward and spoke, then rushed out before anyone else could speak.

"What an impatient fellow."

The other five Jonin shook their heads and followed along, grumbling as they went.

. . . . . .

"Whoosh, whoosh."

On the silent sea, only the sound of waves crashing against the surface could be heard. A group of people were hurrying forward, but strangely, they had no means of transportation. If they had to say what they had, it was only their own two feet.

"Whoa whoa whoa whoa."

Just then, a series of urgent voices came from behind. The people in front turned around and heard someone shout, "Enemy! Prepare for battle!"

"Choji, Ino, Sakura, the Tatsuna family is in your care. Don't worry about what's behind you, just lead them forward. Once you get to the bridge, hide there and don't come out again."

Before the battle with the enemy, the two Jonin began to make arrangements, sending three people who were temporarily of little use to protect the Tatsuna family, and leading them to continue on their way.

Chapter 119

After all, the Dazner family were just ordinary people. If they were just left to drift on the sea, it would be better to hand them over to Cardo, so they could die a quicker death.

The reason why the three of them have no chance to use their skills is that, putting aside Sakura (everyone understands), let's start with Choji. We're at sea, and as an Akimichi clan member who has only learned the Human Bomber Tank, he has no chance to use his skills.

Look, there's no hard ground for him to grip at sea, so he'll sink as soon as he turns.

As for Ino, her Mind Transfer Jutsu was still not up to par; she had even had difficulty controlling Chunin before. At this moment, although Kakashi and Asuma could not yet tell that the six people were Jonin, they could only choose Ino in the survival of the fittest.

Leaving aside Sasuke's strength greatly increased due to the Sharingan's awakening of the three tomoe, and Naruto's taijutsu still being quite impressive with the help of the Nine-Tails' chakra, plus the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique which was relatively helpful in stalling for time, Shikamaru was simply much stronger than them.

Don't forget it's still dark. Even at sea, his Shadow Imitation Technique is unaffected, and it's even more difficult to defend against. After all, who can see him at sea? This allowed Shikamaru to easily defeat the other three.

"We understand."

Xiaoying and her two companions knew that time was of the essence and they couldn't afford to delay, so they quickly took over the three generations of Dazner's family and continued on their way.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique."

"Wind Release: Dust-Covering Technique".

Behind them, a series of shouts and calls for ninjutsu rang out, signaling that a great battle was about to break out.

"cut."

After a night of silence, someone from the Dazner family finally spoke, but not out of guilt or apology. Inari, who was being carried on Ino's back, clicked her tongue and said unhappily, "Why did you have to come? If it weren't for you, our family would never have encountered all this."

“Inari”.

The woman being carried on Xiaoying's back suddenly shouted, and this was the first time she had seen her show such a side since the retreat from the Bloody Rift.

"Shut up."

The woman scolded, "The people of Konoha are our benefactors. There's a limit to how ungrateful we can be. They're risking their lives to fight the enemy right now, aren't they all doing this to help us?"

"I know."

Inari wasn't unaware of these things, but he asked with some confusion, "Why go to such lengths to help us? Wouldn't it be better to just let us die, to let us live like zombies forever?"

As she spoke, tears suddenly streamed down Inari's face, as if she had thought of something.

"fool."

Ino, who was still seething with anger, simply sighed and said, "Because you asked our Konoha Village for a mission, because you want to be friends with us, how can we abandon you?"

"That's right."

Suddenly, four people rushed over from a distance. Before the stench could even be heard, a burly man with thick eyebrows and a watermelon-shaped haircut gave Ino a thumbs-up and showed off his two rows of gleaming white teeth, praising, "That's what we Konoha ninjas should say."

"Alright, you guys keep going. Leave the rest to us!"

0111 The Jade of Seeking the Dao Unleashes its Power

Rewind a little further, to another battlefield before the Kai and Red squads arrived.

"Kid, you're quite strong. How about I throw you a grand funeral?"

Black Hoshino Raiga walked in front, followed by three Jonin and about twenty Chunin, and the large group of people surrounded Yang Lei again.

It's also because Yang Lei didn't intend to escape; otherwise, he could have changed direction in mid-air as soon as he condensed the Seeking the Dao Jade.

In other words, Yang Lei actually had a backup plan, and didn't use all his methods as he claimed. At least the Seeking Jade hadn't been condensed yet.

Or rather, from the start of the war until now, no one has been able to force him to use all his means.

"A funeral?"

Yang Lei gave a disdainful sneer, having already recognized Lei Ya's identity. After all, Lei Ya was relatively kind-looking. At this moment, he heard Lei Ya reply, "Keep it for yourself, or for your subordinates?"

"How utterly unlovable."

Raiga grinned and said to Ranmaru behind him, "Ranmaru, confuse him. Everyone, hurry up and take him down. The ambush over there should have succeeded by now."

With that, Raiya led the charge forward, and the battle, which had not stopped for long, broke out again.

237 "Ambush?"

Upon hearing Raiga's words, Yang Lei felt worried. He was about to form hand seals and use the Flying Thunder God Technique to rush to Kakashi's side when dozens of Raiga suddenly appeared around him.

"So fast."

Yang Lei was startled, not expecting Lei Ya's attack to come so quickly. He didn't know when Lei Ya had prepared this technique, nor whether these were shadow clones or water clones. He quickly jumped up, his feet barely touching the water's surface.

"opportunity."

The rogue ninjas' eyes lit up and they quickly launched an attack.

The images created by Ranmaru were exactly the same as the real ones. Originally, apart from Raiga, even his own people couldn't tell which one was the real Raiga and which one was the fake one, so they didn't dare to launch an attack easily.

But Yang Lei's sudden jump gave everyone an opportunity. Countless attacks flew up from all directions, including ninjutsu and ninja tools, all aimed at Yang Lei.

"Is that a red-eyed creature?"

Yang Lei ignored the countless attacks that were already approaching him, and instead looked at the basket behind Lei Ya with a scrutinizing gaze. He had already made up his mind. Although he had formed the hand seals for the Flying Thunder God Technique, he did not leave to find Kakashi and the others. Instead, he instantly appeared in the water below, where a specially made kunai was submerged.

"This time, we really have to go all out."

Yang Lei didn't rush to surface. Seeing that the rogue ninja above hadn't noticed him, he focused all his chakra on creating three black Truth-Seeking Balls around his body.

"Since Truth-Seeking Jewels can be turned into weapons."

Chapter 120

Yang Lei suddenly recalled the plot of the original work in the later stages. Since Naruto could create black sticks from Truth-Seeking Balls, and Six Paths Obito and Six Paths Madara could also create Six Paths Sage Staffs from them, it shows that Truth-Seeking Balls have strong malleability, but no one has ever researched them.

"Let me give it a try."

An idea formed in Yang Lei's mind, and a wicked smile appeared on his face. Under his control, the three Seeking Dao Jade were suddenly stretched into three large nets.

"rise."

Then he let out a loud shout from underwater, and three large nets were suddenly pulled up to the surface.

"Pfft."

Five Chunin were unlucky enough to be caught in the giant net. Their bodies were instantly sliced ​​into countless pieces, which splashed into the water and turned the surface red.

"He's underwater."

After all, there were only three Seeking the Dao Jade, and the area they covered was too small. More than half of the people were not attacked, and Yang Lei's location was also found.

"Get out of the water."

At this moment, Lei Ya roared angrily. He hadn't expected that Yang Lei could so easily neutralize his previous attack and then take the opportunity to ambush them from underwater. He was furious.

He gripped the sword with both hands and began rapidly forming hand seals. He gave a brief warning and then ignored everyone else, shouting, "Lightning Escape: Earth Walk!"

Lightning Release: Earth Release is inherently more compatible with Water Release. Now, when Raiga uses it on water, and given that his twin blades are the Lightning Blade among the seven great swords, the power of Lightning Release is greatly amplified.

At this point, everyone except Raiga had left as soon as possible; otherwise, they might have wiped out the remaining rogue ninjas in one fell swoop.

Of course, I'm referring to those rogue ninjas whose strength is only at the Chunin level; those three rogue ninjas at the Jonin level are still quite powerful.

"Lightning Release?"

Yang Lei frowned. He had only made a last-minute plan to prepare himself when he landed on the water. There were no more specially made kunai available elsewhere. It seemed that he had no choice but to tough it out.

"Shinra Tensei".

"Boom."

As Yang Lei stretched out his hands and unleashed the Shinra Tensei, the river water was forcefully pushed aside, revealing the ground and Yang Lei, while also repelling the lightning jutsu that approached him.

"Water Release: Water Chaos Waves".

Water Rage Wave is the simplest water-style ninjutsu. Its effect is only to wash away enemies, unlike other water-style techniques that carry various offensive capabilities. Originally, it has no threat whatsoever.

But when Lei Ya used it at this moment, it really felt like turning something rotten into something magical.

Don't forget that his lightning technique is still ongoing, but the water acting as a conductor was deflected by Yang Lei, so it couldn't hurt him.

Now, the electrified water was being controlled by Lei Ya and rammed into Yang Lei. If it didn't work the first time, they would try again. He didn't believe that Yang Lei's unknown protective shield could last forever.

Raiga was right. Although Shinra Tensei can be continuously activated, it consumes too much chakra, especially since Yang Lei is currently underwater, which puts a lot of pressure on him. Even though his chakra recovery speed is fast, he cannot continue to activate it indefinitely.

Furthermore, Shinra Tensei is a dojutsu associated with the Tenseigan, and it consumes a significant amount of mental energy.

However, Yang Lei was not at his wit's end.

"Seeking Dao Jade."

Yang Lei summoned back the three Truth-Seeking Balls that had been condensed into a large net. With a thought, they transformed into a thin film that enveloped him, and as he retracted the Divine Rasengan, he soared into the sky.

"Crackling and popping."

With Yang Lei turning off Shinra Tensei, Raiga's Lightning Release could finally hit him. However, to Raiga's disappointment, although the lightning struck Yang Lei in a pleasant rhythm, it did not actually cause him any harm.

Just kidding. Truth-Seeking Balls are formed from the transformation of seven chakra natures. Theoretically, they can negate all ninjutsu except Sage Techniques, not even Bloodline Limits, let alone a mere Lightning Release.

"It's my turn to attack."
