Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 169 Success

"what!"

"Captain! Help me..."

"Captain Gangshan!"

At this moment, as the Jonin of Gangshan listened to the screams of his teammates before they died, even he, who was used to seeing life and death, couldn't help but feel his eyes twitch.

He never expected that a hunt he thought was a sure thing would turn out this way in an instant.

While these attacks from the opponent didn't have much of an effect on him, they were not so easy for the Chunin to neutralize.

Even though he did his best to block the fireballs, several of his subordinates were killed and many were injured.

Some of them sustained serious injuries!

Before he could pay more attention to his subordinates' situation, the next round of attacks from the other side had already followed.

Moreover, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that his opponent was still forming hand seals, seemingly preparing for a third round of attacks.

"Damn it! This sneak attacker really knows how to set up a trap, one thing after another, giving us no chance to breathe!"

Before the burly Iwa ninja could even think of a way to deal with the attack, the attack was already underway.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

A vast, dark mass of kunai completely enveloped the area where they were, and rained down on the Iwa ninja who had just lost their footing after dodging the fireballs.

If no miracle occurs, these Jonin might be fine, but the Chunin with limited strength will suffer heavy casualties again in this wave of attacks.

"Earth Release: Multiple Earth Flow Walls!"

Gritting his teeth, he realized that in such a crucial moment, the simple ninjutsu with its convenient hand seals proved invaluable.

Furthermore, they cannot simply erect one earthen wall, otherwise, their numbers are too numerous to effectively block the attack.

They blocked the approaching kunai!

This gave him, the Jonin leading the team, a slight sense of relief!

Next, facing the opponent's unknown ninjutsu, he didn't have any good solutions in the short term.

The enemy's sneak attack came too suddenly!

Moreover, the three waves of attacks were connected very smoothly, as if they had been rehearsed countless times, and were completed in just three to five seconds.

This left him unable to unleash more powerful defensive ninjutsu after blocking some of the attacks.

Moreover, the other party was quite vigilant!

Even the special jonin with the fastest reaction and speed in their own team, whose counterattack was launched from underground, was successfully dodged by the enemy.

"Um!"

"snort!"

A painful groan reached his ears, making the already irritable Okayama Jonin even more agitated.

Those groaning were the guys who were farther away from him when he dodged the fireball attack.

Although he hastily cast a Multiple Earth Wall, he was unable to cover all his comrades within the range of the defensive ninjutsu.

These guys were mostly covered in kunai, and two unlucky ones were already lying in pools of blood.

It seems that in the upcoming battles, not causing trouble will be the limit of what they can do.

Before he could catch his breath, a series of deafening dragon roars entered his ears.

"Spread out! Don't huddle together!"

Feeling the heat even through the earthen wall, the grime emanating from the mountain ninja roared at his subordinates.

Based solely on his intuition, he knew that the earthen wall he had hastily unleashed, arranged in a straight line, would not be able to stop the attacker's final offensive.

Click! Click!

boom!

As soon as he finished speaking, the earthen wall that had blocked the kunai's attack shattered under the impact of the opponent's ninjutsu.

And right in front of him, a dragon-head-shaped chakra flame, six or seven meters in size, was swooping down toward his position.

At the same time, it interrupted the ninjutsu he was halfway through forming hand seals!

"You bastard!"

He wasn't confident that he could block such a high-level fire-style ninjutsu with just his hardening technique.

Not to mention, this hardening technique was performed rather hastily and couldn't cover too many parts of the body.

Rumble~

As the fiery dragon head broke through the obstacle and made intimate contact with the ground, it left behind only a huge, charred crater, where the figure of the Jonin from Gangshan could still be seen.

Those Chunin who had lost the protection of Jonin and were still reeling from the surprise attack were all in dire straits.

It should be noted that the Dragon Flame Song Technique can split into three to five dragon heads, each attacking a different target, depending on the user's needs and the amount of chakra.

When Toshiro unleashed his ninjutsu, in order to achieve a better surprise attack, he spared no effort, splitting his chakra into five dragon heads. Even his own meridians felt like they were about to burst from the sheer volume of chakra flowing through them in such a short time.

It's important to know that the total amount of chakra that travels from the lower abdomen to the mouth and is then exhaled is limited and varies considerably depending on the strength of each person's meridians.

He really risked his life this time!

At this point, the Jonin from Okayama, who was able to react and block the fire-style ninjutsu, no longer had a chance to save them.

All that remains is to see if the two remaining special jonin among them can help them escape this calamity.

Chant!

boom!

Ah!

A series of sounds, each representing a different meaning, came from the center of where the group of Iwa ninja were located!

This was the consequence of the other four leaders who attacked Iwagakure. Without the intervention of Jonin, even these special Jonin didn't have any good solutions in the rush.

They only managed to unleash an Earth Wall, hoping to temporarily slow down Toshiro's attack. This created a slight chance for themselves and their companions to escape, but it wasn't decisive.

Even with only a C-rank Earth Release: Earth Wall technique, it wasn't very effective against Toshiro's high-level Fire Release ninjutsu.

Unless each of them cultivates the nature of earth to a very high level.

With the ground trembling and the screams of the Iwa ninja, a large cloud of smoke, mixed with the firelight and the smell of burning, began to spread across the grass outside the grove.

It's not hard to tell without counting that Toshiro's long-planned sneak attack had achieved considerable success, causing heavy losses to the Iwa ninja!
