Konoha, reported by the Fourth Hokage at the start.

Chapter 312 The Angry Onoki

To be able to slice two such large clods of earth into quicksand in an instant, how many slashes must the Fourth Kazekage have unleashed in that instant?

Just thinking about this made Huang Tu lose all interest in competing with the Fourth Kazekage.

What made him even more desperate was that the Fourth Kazekage hadn't used any hand seals at all during the entire process of unleashing his Wind Release slashing ninjutsu.

In other words, the Fourth Kazekage's Wind Release slash does not require hand seals.

Then, a ninjutsu that doesn't require hand seals can unleash countless slashes in an instant. This... Huang Tu was completely stunned.

How can we fight this?!

There's no way to fight!

The Iwagakure ninjas looked terrified, while the Sunagakure ninjas looked ecstatic.

powerful!

too strong!

As expected of the strongest Kazekage in history!

The power of Li Yao's Wind Release clones stirred the hearts of the Sand Village ninja.

Huang Tu's face turned pale, and for a moment he couldn't think of a way to stop Li Yaofeng from creating a clone.

But we can't just ignore it!

"Everyone, use the Earthquake Core Technique together!"

At the critical moment, Huang Tu roared and immediately made a decision.

Everyone quickly formed hand seals and unleashed a wide-range Earth Escape - Earthquake Core Technique.

Boom!

In an instant, the ground within a two-kilometer radius sank rapidly, including the ground around Huang Tu and the other Iwagakure ninjas.

Soon, the ground where Li Yaofeng's clones and others were located sank a hundred meters, and they were trapped in a huge square pit.

"Let's all die together!"

Huang Tu looked at Li Yao's Wind Release clone a hundred meters away, his face showing determination, and quickly formed hand seals with all the Iwagakure ninjas.

"Earth Release-Earth..."

The words "earthquake" were abruptly cut off before I could even finish thinking about them.

Teng!

Li Yaofeng's clone flicked his index finger, and a sharp slashing wave swept forward horizontally. It was so fast that it seemed to cut through space itself, covering a distance of a hundred meters in an instant.

"not good!"

At the critical moment, Huang Tu, relying on his powerful combat instincts honed over years of battle, ducked in advance to dodge, and the slashing wave flew over his head.

He managed to dodge, but the group of Iwagakure ninja behind him didn't have his strong fighting instincts and strength.

Even though the wave-slash was a visible and audible attack, its speed was so fast that they couldn't dodge it while they were performing ninjutsu.

boom!

On the rock wall behind, the sharp slashes were like a brush drawing a deep cut on a piece of white paper.

Huang Tu subconsciously turned around to look.

In the instant he turned his head, all his former companions were still in the same hand seals, but their familiar faces were gone, their heads were gone.

Where have you been?

Thump thump... Just as he landed from the air, under the instantly blood-red gaze of the yellow earth, heads still spurting blood rolled several times on the ground, some with their eyes on him, some with the backs of their heads facing him.

died!

all dead!

In the blink of an eye, all his companions died, leaving only Huang Tu to escape with his life.

tread!

Before Huang Tu could have time to grieve for his fallen comrade, Li Yaofeng's footsteps, the sound of his clone, suddenly appeared in front of him.

He turned his head and saw the excessively young Fourth Kazekage in front of him. The Kazekage looked at him thoughtfully for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he smiled, "I remember now, you are the son of that guy Onoki, I think your name is Hirotsuchi."

"As expected of Onoki's son, you managed to dodge that slashing wave. This fighting instinct has not diminished your father's reputation. As expected of Onoki's son."

涑！

Li Yaofeng's sincere praise, achieved through his clone's escape technique, did not earn Huang Tu's approval, but instead a massive rock fist filled with endless rage.

Hiss... A transparent barrier appeared in front of Li Yaofeng's clone, and the incoming rock fist was instantly turned into an invisible powder and disappeared as if it had entered a meat grinder.

Bang!

Huang Tu retreated ten meters, clutching his severed right shoulder and arm, his eyes filled with anger and despair as he stared at Li Yaofeng's clone not far away.

It possesses both a terrifyingly powerful wind-style slash and an invincible defensive ninjutsu.

How can anyone fight against someone like that!

Perhaps only his father's Dust Release technique can defeat this man!

As Huang Tu's thoughts raced, Li Yaofeng used his clone to reappear beside him.

Teng!

This time, Li Yao's wind-escape clone didn't say anything more. With a thought, he used wind-escape slash to sever Huang Tu's arms and legs.

"You guys handle this, make sure he doesn't die."

Li Yaofeng said, using his clone as a decoy.

Luo Sha and the others who came over looked at Li Yao's wind-escape clone's back with fear and nodded. They quickly called for medical ninjas to come forward and stop the bleeding of Huang Tu, who had already fainted.

Seeing the terrible state of Huang Tu's body, the Sand Ninja, including Rasa, witnessed for the first time the terrifying methods of the Fourth Kazekage.

From today onward, they will only feel awe when facing Li Yaofeng's clones.

After dealing with the loess, the group continued their journey.

The sinking ground couldn't stop them; the ninjas could walk on the straight walls.

"Ignore them and head straight for Iwagakure."

On the way, they encountered some Iwagakure ninja who came to investigate. Li Yao used his Wind Release clones to stop the Sand Ninja who wanted to chase after them.

He hung the yellow earth from which he had lost his hands and legs in the most conspicuous place in front of him, so that the Iwagakure ninjas who came to investigate could see it clearly.

"That despicable Fourth Kazekage! A scholar can be killed but not humiliated! How dare he treat Lord Huangtu like this?!"

"Unforgivable!"

As expected, Li Yao's use of Wind Release to create clones aroused extreme anger among the Iwagakure ninja who had come to gather information.

Soon, through the soul perception of Li Yaofeng's clone, one after another, the unique messenger eagles of Iwagakure took to the sky in the distance, heading towards the location of the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki.

……

On the road from the eastern part of the Land of Earth to Iwagakure Village, there is a plain.

It's called a plain, but it's really just a huge flat area with no water plants, only yellowish-brown rocks.

Arriving here means we're not far from Iwagakure (Hidden Rock Village).

Onoki was leading a group of about three hundred Iwagakure ninja on this rocky plain.

Suddenly, a unique eagle cry came from the sky. Onoki looked up and saw three black eagles circling above them.

"Something's happened!"

Onoki's expression changed slightly. The three black lines in the sky above his head were the messenger hawks of Iwagakure.

The fact that all three black hawks are here indicates that someone is mobilizing more carrier hawks to deliver messages to him, hoping that the letters can be delivered to him as quickly as possible.

This letter is very important, Ohnoki thought to himself.

"interest……"

A distinctive cry rang out; it was the cry of the hawk, a unique symbol of Iwagakure, used by the ANBU guards surrounding Onoki.

Soon, three black eagles circling overhead swooped down and landed on the outstretched arm of an ANBU member. Another ANBU member quickly untied the scroll tied to the eagle's leg and handed it to Onoki.

"Lord Tsuchikage!"

"Be on guard!"

Onoki stopped issuing the order, then opened the letter and began to read it.

"loess!!!"

After watching for only a short while, Onoki's sorrowful and angry voice came out, and his chakra burst out unconsciously. The Iwa ninja around him felt a chill in their hearts and looked at the Third Tsuchikage, whose face was bulging with veins, with puzzled expressions.

Clearly, their Third Tsuchikage was furious.
