Mayuri Kurotsuchi Card Game, starting from Naruto

Chapter 95 Onoki

boom!

The explosion, accompanied by billowing smoke and dust, and swirling sand, echoed between the two monsters on the battlefield.

"With so few ninjas deployed, is there no one left in Sunagakure?!" The Third Raikage shouted, looking at the panting Rasa.

Magnetic escape·placer gold!

However, Rasa completely ignored the Third Raikage's psychological maneuvering. Gold dust, emerging like springs from beneath the yellow sand, cascaded down like a river, trapping the Third Raikage firmly in the center of the gold dust sea.

His battle with the Third Raikage was like this: once he was in close combat, he would be at a disadvantage; but once he was kept at a distance and the Third Raikage was trapped in his gold dust, the Third Raikage could only struggle to hold on in the sea of ​​gold dust.

In a two-on-one fight, no one else usually gets involved in the battle.

After several battles, Rasa and the Third Raikage would tacitly keep their battlefields away from the main force.

The Third Raikage once ignored Rasa's challenge and charged into the elite Sand Ninja forces alone, slaughtering them indiscriminately.

However, Rasa used Magnet Release to purge the Cloud Village troops.

After several battles, when the Raikage realized that this exchange tactic was not worth the effort, he had no choice but to face Rasa and leave the battlefield with him.

The two have now reached a tacit understanding that once a war breaks out, they will definitely keep an eye on each other.

The Third Raikage knew very well that Rasa's strength was inferior to his, but Wind Release and Magnet Release were severely effective against him.

Even with his Lightning Release armor on, Rasa couldn't inflict any effective damage on him, no matter how hard he tried.

However, similarly, under the scouring and pressing of the gold dust, he could not accelerate.

After numerous battles, Rasa could practically write a manual on how to counter the Third Raikage.

Given his inferior strength, all Rasa could do was restrain the Third Raikage. As for the various insults and taunts emanating from his mouth, after suffering a loss and nearly losing his life once, Rasa simply ignored them.

"It seems that Sunagakure really has no reinforcements left." The Third Raikage skillfully pulled his body out of the flowing gold dust, while still having the energy to scan the battlefield.

This time, the resistance from the Sand Village was even weaker than before, with even several columns missing. The Sand Village's famous puppet army was completely scattered, with only a few remaining as reinforcements within other ninja units.

Judging from the situation on the battlefield, the defeat of Sunagakure was only a matter of time.

In fact, the fact that Sunagakure was able to hold off the Cloud Ninja forces for nearly two long years was somewhat beyond the Third Raikage's expectations.

He originally thought that a ninja village that had disappeared, even if it was one of the five great nations, could only withstand the onslaught of the Cloud Ninja for about a year at most.

But now, Sunagakure can no longer hold on.

Even if the plan to destroy Sunagakure is not achieved, once Sunagakure becomes a defeated country, Kumogakure can still extract a lot of benefits from both the Land of Wind and Sunagakure.

Putting aside other factors, the number of missions that the Sand Village ninjas can take on is at least a significant portion of the total. The number of missions a ninja can accept, excluding government funding, is also a measure of a village's economic strength and power.

The Sand Village had retreated to the vicinity of their encampment, and their formation had been cut and surrounded by the Cloud Ninja.

The Cloud Ninja, who had gained the upper hand, were on the verge of achieving a true victory and completely crushing the last remaining ninja force of the Sand Village. Everything was developing in a positive direction, but for some reason, the Third Raikage suddenly felt a deadly sense of crisis.

Suddenly, the Sand Gold Sea went berserk, swirling around him and trying to bind him tightly to the spot. A dangerous and dazzling white light shot from the distant sky toward the Third Raikage.

The Third Raikage unleashed lightning once more, the solidified bolts emitting a cacophony of noise like the chirping of thousands of birds.

In a split second, the Third Raikage's body shifted to the side. The white light aimed at his chest grazed past his left arm.

Silently.

The Third Raikage's arm seemed to have been wiped out in mid-air, and even the incredibly powerful Thunder God Armor offered no protection whatsoever.

The dust kicked up by the Third Raikage's outburst quickly settled to the ground, and his gaze instantly locked onto a hunched and short old man floating in mid-air.

Dust Escape!

Iwagakure is known as the Tsuchikage of Onoki, the Two Scales.

The Third Raikage's alarm bells went off almost instantly upon seeing the Tsuchikage appear.

The fact that Onoki was able to appear here suggests that the Cloud Ninja forces used to defend against and monitor the movements of Iwagakure are likely in grave danger.

As for the idea that Onoki came alone to support the Sand Ninja and Rasa, the Third Raikage almost immediately ruled it out in his mind.

As his old rival, he knew Onoki's character very well! The other party was a cautious and stubborn person who would stop at nothing to get things done.

He wouldn't easily put himself in danger, nor would he kindly risk his life for the Sand Village. There's only one reason he's here: to end the war and reap the benefits.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Rasa quickly retreated. The Third Raikage glanced at Rasa's figure returning to the Sand Village camp in mid-air but did not stop him. His attention was now entirely on Onoki, who was floating towards them.

The Third Raikage, who had already sensed something was wrong, now wished that Rasa would leave immediately, even if he had to take the defeated Sand Ninja with him.

Otherwise, if Rasa and Onoki joined forces, it would be very difficult for him to escape the battlefield unscathed.

Magnetic escape·placer gold waterfall.

The massive flow of gold dust severed the battlefield between the Cloud Ninja and the Sand Ninja, rescuing the Sand Ninja who were surrounded by the Cloud Ninja one by one.

Upon witnessing this scene, Tsuchida, the commander-in-chief of the Cloud Ninja Force, immediately took control of the troops.

Rasa's appearance made Tsuchida and the Cloud Ninja realize that there was a problem on the Raikage's side.

"Lord Tsuchikage, the sensory unit has detected a large amount of ninja chakra, numbering at least ten thousand!"

A Cloud Ninja hurriedly and frantically reported to the earthen platform behind the Cloud Ninja.

Ten thousand ninjas?

As the strategist of the Cloud Ninja, Tsuchidae immediately realized that the worst-case scenario had occurred.

The Sand Village's ninja forces were almost decimated by the Cloud Village, and even the Sand Village itself couldn't muster many ninjas.

As for Konoha? Based on his understanding of the Hokage of Konoha, it was impossible for Konoha to send out its entire force to join the battle.

There is only one organization in the entire ninja world that can have 10,000 ninjas and is still here.

Iwagakure, the Hidden Stone Village in the Land of Earth!

Ohnoki is here!

Tsuchida almost instantly analyzed the new enemy in his mind and understood why Rasa was able to leave while his own Third Raikage did not appear.
