Chapter 112 Special Forces!

Chapter 112 Special Forces! (Fourth update, 1.3 words)

Nara Rinka gazed into the dust and mist, a dark color surging from the depths of his pupils, and the [Lacquer Eye] technique silently unfolded.

Invisible spiritual energy emanated from Nara Rinka's eyes, spreading through the dust and mist ahead, allowing him to perceive the number, location, and appearance of the enemies with unparalleled precision.

"One, two... eight. There are eight ninjas in total within the smoke."

"There are also some figures whose physical forms overlap with those of the eight ninjas; they are most likely shadow clones."

Under the cover of the dust and mist, the shadow beneath Nara Rinka stirred.

A transparent, invisible shadow separated from his body and silently approached the enemy in front of him.

【Shadow Invisibility Technique】!

"You call us Konoha ninjas, so who are you all?"

Nara Rinka shouted loudly, drawing the attention of the ninjas opposite him, while gesturing to Hyuga Rei beside him.

"The Hidden Village of the Waterfall Country? The Hidden Village of the Grass Country? Or perhaps...?"

"Ninjas from Iwagakure?"

Hinata Rei noticed Nara Rin's hand gesture and understood his meaning—beware of an enemy attack from underground.

however……

Nara Rinka is deliberately stalling for time.

The enemy is deliberately letting the other side speak in order to buy time for their side to unleash their ninjutsu.

"Earth Release: Earth Rising Spear!"

Using the smoke as cover, several Iwagakure ninjas spread and injected their refined earth-style chakra into the earth below, causing a rumbling, noisy sound to suddenly erupt from the earth, which was originally covered with huge boulders.

"Watch out below! Something's coming!"

Hinata Rei's warning wasn't slow, but by the time she finished speaking, the enemy's attack had already broken through the ground.

boom! boom! boom!

One after another, thick and menacing earthen spears suddenly sprang up from the ground, attacking Nara Rinka and the other Konoha ninjas with overwhelming force.

Faced with this level of Earth Release attack, Nara Rinka and Hyuga Rei naturally had a way to deal with it.

Dodging to the side is undoubtedly the simplest and most effective strategy.

However, it was easy for Nara Rinka and Hinata Rei to dodge.

The wounded and remnants in the rear did not have the agility to dodge the onslaught of these menacing earth spikes.

The only option is to tough it out!

Nara Rinka quickly took out a scroll from his ninja tool bag, opened the scroll cover, and unfolded it towards the ground below.

On the pristine white paper, the bright character "雷" (lei, meaning thunder) is clearly reflected.

Although Nara Rinkei himself does not possess the chakra nature of lightning.

But who says he can't use Lightning Release?

Nara Rinkei deliberately purchased quite a few scrolls of Lightning Release ninjutsu from Mrs. Neko, just in case.

I never expected it would actually come in handy this time.

"Lightning Release: Earth Walk!"

Bright, dazzling lightning was released from the scroll, and the lightning-type chakra spread across the ground, as if encountering a natural enemy, easily intercepting the group of attacking earthen spears.

"Lightning Release: Ground Walk" is a close-to-medium range ground-based restriction technique.

However, Nara Rinka used it as a perfect defensive technique at this moment.

"You wretched brat!"

A series of curses erupted from within the dust and mist.

"They actually used such a precious Lightning Release ninjutsu scroll to counter Earth Release!"

Almost at the same time.

Another wave of attacks was launched from the dust and mist.

"Earth Release: Earth Mound Dumpling!"

The essence of Tuling Tuzi is to dig out huge stones from the earth and manipulate them to smash enemies.

The small hill that had just collapsed provided the attacking ninjas with a large number of huge rocks, making it easier to conserve chakra when using "Earth Mound Dumplings".

In fact.

"Earth Dragon Spear" and "Earth Mound Dumpling" were originally a ninjutsu routine used together.

The attacking ninjas originally planned to use the "Earth Dragon Spear" to force the Konoha ninjas to change positions, and then use the brief time difference to summon the "Earth Mound Dumpling" to attack the Konoha ninjas who had landed.

But what they didn't expect was...

The "Earth Dragon Spear" attack was actually countered by a simple lightning release ninjutsu scroll from the opponent...

Fortunately, there was a follow-up attack from "Tuling Tuanzi".

The densely packed, enormous rocks almost completely blocked out the sky, forming a massive net of stones from which there was no escape. They rained down on Nara Rinka and the other Konoha ninjas, seemingly intent on crushing them all under the weight of the rocks.

In terms of sheer power, this massive net of stones that blots out the sun is even more visually imposing than the earthen spear from before!

Faced with this incredibly violent slinging attack.

Nara Rinka took a deep breath, and instead of retreating, he charged straight into the air, raising his fist high.

[Strange Power]!

The chakra he instantly refined surged into his fist, and then, following the chakra points and the swinging motion of his arm, it was released outward, transforming into a terrifying and boundless force that slammed into the densely packed rocks.

boom!

Nara Rinka's fist collided violently with the boulder, instantly unleashing a deafening roar.

Where his fist collided with the stone surface, a deep, chiseled crack instantly appeared, spreading throughout the entire rock in a matter of moments, shattering the monolith into small pieces of debris.

Nara's pursuit of the laurels shows no sign of stopping.

Using the recoil from his fists, Nara Rinka's figure moved nimbly through the air, flashing and shifting between one giant rock after another.

It was just the simplest punches and kicks, yet it unleashed an astonishing sense of power.

Huge rocks everywhere.

Nara Rinkachi shattered into a pile of small stones before it even hit the ground, all thanks to the sheer force of the stone.

Although these small stones still possess considerable destructive power.

However, it is incomparable to the giant rock just now.

Upon witnessing this scene of extreme violence, both the attacking ninjas and the Konoha ninjas were stunned into silence.

The attacking ninja felt he had just run into a monster.

The Konoha ninjas also felt that a monster had appeared in their ranks...

Whose subordinate is this?

Could it be that Lady Tsunade deliberately transformed into a boy to come to the front lines and support us?

The Konoha ninjas went from despair to shock, and then to overwhelming excitement.

The attacking ninjas are considering whether to make a strategic retreat or continue the attack.

But at that very moment, Nara Rinkachi launched his long-prepared attack!

Maintaining the transparent clone of the Shadow Concealment Technique, after completing the hand seals undisturbed, it unleashed a super-advanced genjutsu at the attacking ninjas who were still shrouded in dust and mist.

[Darkness Travel Technique]!

An overwhelming darkness surged from the transparent clone's body, engulfing the entire attacking ninja team.

Before the attacking ninjas could even react, they were plunged into a truly dark and gloomy abyss.

"Everyone! Attack that dark area with all your might!"

Nara gave the order.

Uchiha Shisui, Hyuga Rei, Shizune, and other Konoha ninjas who were still capable of launching an attack unanimously released their attacks into that dark area at top speed.

"Fire Release: Red Phoenix Claw!"

"Gentle Fist - Bagua Empty Palm!"

"Poison needle!"

In addition, there were countless ninja tools, explosive tags, and so on.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A continuous series of explosions erupted in the pitch-black environment shrouded by the [Darkness Travel Technique]. The attacking ninjas inside immediately cried out in distress, losing countless men in the blink of an eye.

In Nara Rinka's perception of the "lacquer eye," the large number of ninjas on the other side were instantly wiped out in this round of attacks.

As he had previously suspected, the vast majority of the attacking ninjas were merely shadow clones used to fill the ranks.

The actual number of ninjas was only eight!

Among these eight ninjas.

Two ninjas were killed instantly in this round of throwing attacks by the Konoha ninjas.

Two other ninjas were severely injured and were basically unable to fight anymore.

The other ninjas also suffered injuries, differing only in the degree of their wounds.

"Don't panic! Back up!"

It was still the same rough-spoken man's voice.

"Then--

"Explosive Release: Landmine Fist!"

In Nara Rinkasa's view, a tall ninja broke out of the crowd, took a few steps forward, ignoring the darkness that cut off his vision, raised his fist, aimed at the ground, and slammed it down.

Rumbling--

Like several thunderclaps exploding in a clear day, a deafening roar erupted from the darkness.

As the ninja unleashed his fist attack, the entire earth seemed to transform into a no-man's-land filled with landmines. A series of explosions unfolded before him, and the earth itself trembled slightly from the sheer force of the explosive power.

The powerful shockwave even reached the area in front of Nara Rinka and other Konoha ninja.

The long-awaited task notification finally popped up on the panel.

[A Rank B Ninja Battle Mission has been detected!]

[Rank B Mission: Explosion Release Ninja]

[Mission Objective: Defeat/kill a Jonin from Iwagakure using the Explosion Release technique]

[Mission Reward: Rank B Ninja Scroll]

Nara was too busy to pay attention to the information on the panel.

Following the series of explosions, the attacking ninjas on the other side charged forward with perfect coordination.

Nara Rinka frowned slightly. The attacking ninjas were moving too fast. If he allowed the [Dark Travel Technique] to continue enveloping them, it was very likely that his own people would be caught in the crossfire as well.

Although the attacking ninjas were no longer at their peak.

But who makes their own side's disadvantage even greater?

"Continue the attack!"

As Nara Rinka gave the order, he began to refine his own chakra.

Upon receiving the order, the Konoha ninja continued to employ various methods, launching a new attack on the still lingering darkness.

This time, the ninjas, who were clearly prepared, did not fall directly into the attack as they had before.

But even so.

The two ninjas who were already seriously injured were killed in this round of attacks.

In the end, only four attacking ninjas managed to escape the range of the [Dark Travel Technique].

They were greeted by the laurel wreaths of Nara—

[Spiral Shadow Piercing Bullet]!

A huge thank you to "风华雪舞" for the 500 Qidian Coins reward!!
