Konoha, reported by the Fourth Hokage at the start.

Chapter 475 The Helplessness of Ordinary Ninjas

"But...that's what makes it interesting!"

As the wooden figure's fist, as large as a small mountain, slammed down, Ye Cang's face glowed red, his body's high temperature suddenly subsided, and an invisible wave spread out.

call out!

Ye Cang leaped up and charged at the mountain-sized wooden dummy's fist, looking as vulnerable as a mosquito attacking a human fist.

However... tear!

Yecang is like a nail carrying high temperature, with invisible waves spreading out, and the wood that comes into contact with it collapses and dissipates directly at the molecular level.

The powerful wooden doll's fists were no match for Yekura's extremely high-temperature particle acceleration.

Yecang tore through the wooden doll's fist and burst out from behind it.

The wooden dummy's entire arm burned away instantly under this blow, as if it were made of paper.

"What?!!"

Orochimaru's Wood Release clone, standing atop the wooden figure, was horrified upon witnessing this scene.

"That invisible fluctuation was even stronger than last time!"

"And... that wasn't mutual destruction... Yes, this woman didn't die, so she mastered this terrifying scorching heat."

Shocked and pondering, Orochimaru's Wood Release clone also realized that Pakura's strength had advanced to a new level.

"Wood Release: Advent of the World of Trees!"

Orochimaru's Wood Release clone instantly abandoned control of the wooden doll and unleashed the full power of Wood Release: Advent of the World of Trees. Countless giant trees shot out from the wooden doll like giant pythons and coiled around Yekura in mid-air.

At the same time, Orochimaru's Wood Release clone quickly entered the wooden doll's body and went underground, away from Pakura.

Since the wooden golem could no longer withstand the terrifying high-temperature fluctuations, there was no need to waste even more chakra on the wooden golem technique and fight Pakura.

Just continue to use Tree World Descent to consume Leaf Warehouses.

Orochimaru's goal was clear: to wear down Pakura.

Faced with the endless sea of ​​trees attacking Orochimaru, Yekura was unable to do anything for the time being and had to maintain the high-temperature mode.

Otherwise, once the trees entangle him, they will absorb his high-temperature chakra.

The tree created by Orochimaru's Wood Release has a certain degree of resistance to high temperatures, making it difficult for her to break free from its restraints.

"Let's see who can outlast whom!"

Ye Cang smiled, completely unfazed, and directly expanded the high-temperature zone to its maximum extent, within one kilometer.

On the ground, large trees with diameters of over ten meters surged wildly toward a place distorted by a white and red light. However, as the area distorted by the white and red light moved, the trees burned to ashes.

"Cool!"

"This is what it feels like to have unlimited chakra! It's so awesome!"

Feel the ever-increasing chakra within your body, feel the high-temperature domain that you are unleashing without restraint.

Yekura felt like she had just drunk an ice-cold Coke on a hot day, so refreshing she wanted to roar to the sky.

In the past, facing Orochimaru's mindless attrition tactics, Pakura would have already been on the run by now.

Her chakra was completely insufficient to sustain the application of such a large-scale high-temperature domain for even a few minutes.

No, if it were before, she wouldn't have used the High Temperature Domain at all; she would have just used the speed of High Temperature Mode to dodge and get away from the trees.

However, now, she not only has high-temperature mode activated, but also high-temperature field activated, constantly releasing terrifying high temperatures to the surroundings.

Nothing can get within a hundred meters of her.

Within her 100-meter radius, it was like a vacuum zone, completely empty, and the terrifying heat distorted even space itself.

Boom!

Tear!

The two raced forward, causing trees to tumble and lava to boil.

Mountains were uprooted and rivers were leveled, leaving behind burning trees and lava gullies that left terrifying red marks on the earth that could be clearly seen tens of thousands of meters in the air.

The commotion was felt by the Konoha and Sunagakure ninjas within a radius of hundreds of kilometers.

Downstream from the grassland river, three small teams of Konoha ninjas who had hidden in the tunnels to avoid Yekura only dared to surface and observe the huge commotion coming from afar.

"It seems they've come to blows with Lord Orochimaru."

The middle-aged squad leader looked towards the distant horizon. The firelight illuminated the night sky, making it seem as if a giant torch had lit up most of the sky, or as if the entire sky was ablaze.

"It should be correct."

The other two squad leaders led their team members to the shore.

Orochimaru's Wood Release and Pakura's High-Temperature Scorching Release.

If the two were to fight, especially at night, it would cause a huge burst of flames that could be seen from a great distance.

Therefore, wherever you see huge flames shooting into the sky, it must be Lord Orochimaru fighting against Pakura of the Sand Village.

This time, however, the flames on the horizon were particularly enormous, illuminating most of the sky in crimson.

This also shows that the middle-aged squad leader's judgment was correct; the Sand Village Sun Goddess, Pakura, has transcended the realm of humanity and reached the superhuman realm of gods.

"Let's go back to base."

The middle-aged squad leader said that he was in charge of the outpost and had not received any orders to retreat. They had to go back and hold their posts.

"Yes."

No one else had any objections.

The group quickly ran back to their base.

Having been frightened by Yecang during the day, the group remained hidden in the tunnel, not daring to even venture out to observe.

Fearing that Ye Cang hadn't left, they waited for them to show themselves.

The twelve people had been hiding until now, and only dared to come out after hearing the earthquake and guessing that Lord Orochimaru and Pakura had clashed.

"Uh... luckily I ran fast!"

Back at the base, the grassland was gone, and in its place was a small lake about a kilometer in diameter. The middle-aged squad leader and his men were relieved.

Clearly, they ran fast during the day, otherwise they would have disappeared just like this suddenly appearing lake.

"Earth Escape..."

Beside the small lake, the two squad leaders used Earth Release ninjutsu to create three new deep pits to hide in, guard the stronghold, inspect the surroundings, and prevent a large-scale surprise attack by the Sand Ninja.

"Watch out for the battle between Lord Orochimaru and Pakura."

The middle-aged squad leader offered a reminder.

"Don't worry, Captain, we can't let our guard down." The team member who was using binoculars and his sensory abilities to vigilantly observe the surroundings quickly replied.

The most dangerous thing right now is not the sudden attack from the Sand Village ninja, but rather avoiding getting involved in the battle between those two.

Once they realize that the fight between the two is approaching, they must get away in advance.

Otherwise, the aftershocks of their casual fight could bring them annihilation.

This is experience learned through bloodshed.

It's hard to accept, really.

Since Sasori of the Red Sand rose to power, and Orochimaru mastered Wood Release.

While many ninja from both Sunagakure and Konoha died in direct combat, even more were killed by the aftershocks of their battle.

After several bloody lessons, both sides have gained experience.

When two people are fighting, they must stay at least ten kilometers apart and always pay attention to their movements during the fight.

To avoid being caught in the crossfire of their battle and being unable to retreat in time, which could lead to an accident.
