Chapter 58 I've Got You
Chapter 58 I've Got You
"That damn bastard, how dare he play me!"
In the wilderness, Ai, furious, pursued the enemy northward.
At this moment, he received a report from his subordinates and realized that he had been tricked, like a fool.
Being toyed with by a mere Chunin from the Mist Village was intolerable to the proud and arrogant A. Lightning erupted from his body, and his speed increased rapidly, leaving his newly arrived subordinates far behind once again.
"Lord Ai is very powerful. I feel very safe under his command. I don't have to worry about getting hurt or dying. However, chasing after him is really tiring."
Ai's subordinates are not like ninjas at all, but like athletes running a marathon, like simps chasing after a goddess they can't have. After each brief meeting, they are dumped by the goddess, which is full of sweet troubles.
"Stop complaining, let's run! What if Lord Ai goes somewhere else and we can't find him again?"
Misato is unaware that he has already provoked the wrath of the future Raikage, and is now fighting with all his might against three Cloud Ninja Jonin.
"Genin, step back. This is not a battle you can participate in. Chunin, concentrate on defense and be careful to pick off the enemy one by one. Use ranged attacks to support us."
The three Jonin attacked while issuing orders.
"Lightning Release: Great Lightning Ball Technique!"
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
The two Jonin worked together, and the Water Dragon Bullet, imbued with the power of lightning, rushed towards Mikami. Meanwhile, the third Jonin, clearly skilled in swordsmanship, raised his long sword and launched an attack directly alongside the Water Dragon Bullet.
"Combination ninjutsu? What a hassle!"
Earth Release is the most effective defense against Water Release ninjutsu, but it is difficult to effectively defend against a combination of Water Release and Lightning Release ninjutsu.
Of course, if Misato's strength far surpasses that of his opponent, the nature of ninjutsu can be disregarded, and any ninjutsu can defend against the attack. However, Misato's strength is clearly insufficient.
Therefore, Mi Shou frowned and could only retreat quickly.
The water jet struck the ground, splashing water and lightning in all directions, creating a damp, stagnant environment with flashing arcs of electricity, forming a large area of damage.
If Misato hadn't retreated decisively and far enough, he might have been struck by lightning, which would have paralyzed his body, making it difficult to defend against attacks from Cloud Ninjas skilled in swordsmanship.
"One against three is a huge disadvantage; we must disperse them!"
Misho retreated continuously, and seeing the three Cloud Ninja Jonin pursuing him, he immediately formed hand seals.
"Hidden Mist Technique!"
The thick fog quickly gathered, soon obscuring the Cloud Ninja's vision, forcing the three Cloud Ninja to stop temporarily.
"The enemy is taking this opportunity to escape!"
"The fog is too thick; we can't pursue them rashly."
"Don't worry, he can't escape. Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
A Cloud Ninja unleashed a powerful gust of wind, which quickly dispersed a large patch of mist.
"A perfect opportunity! Shadow Clone Technique!"
Taking advantage of the moment when a Cloud Ninja was unable to retaliate by using ninjutsu, Mikami summoned three shadow clones and then rushed over together.
"careful!"
One of the Cloud Ninja reacted the fastest, raising his sword to block a shadow clone and also alerting his companion.
Another Cloud Ninja also used a kunai to block the incoming short sword.
Only the last Cloud Ninja, having just completed hand seals while using Wind Release, was unable to draw a kunai from his weapon pouch to defend himself. He could only retreat a few steps to dodge under the pressure of the shadow clones.
At that moment, Mikami's attack followed immediately.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
"Damn it, we've fallen for their trap!"
The Cloud Ninja had already realized that Mikami was trying to separate her from her companions, but Mikami's attack was too urgent, giving her no chance to use ninjutsu. She could only continue to retreat.
With this retreat, the Cloud Ninja completely disappeared into the mist, losing contact with his two companions.
"Yuka!"
Two Cloud Ninja anxiously called out to their companion, wanting to provide support, but were entangled by three Shadow Clones.
After they dealt with the shadow clones, all that remained was the quietly flowing mist, and they had completely lost sight of their companions.
"Yu Xia has disappeared."
"Don't worry, she's very strong, she'll be fine."
Although their companions were separated, the two Cloud Ninja were not too worried.
After all, the range of the Mist Concealment Technique is limited. Even if the two of them have to guard against sneak attacks, their search speed in the mist is slow, and they will find Yuxia in no time.
Mimori's performance was indeed beyond their expectations, but they felt it was impossible for him to defeat Yuka in a short time.
At this moment, Yu Xia warily observed the surrounding mist, worried about a possible attack at any time. She dared not use ninjutsu easily anymore, but instead held kunai in both hands and stood quietly in place.
She firmly believed that she had the ability to defend against Mi Shou's attack and that a counterattack was not impossible.
Her only worry now is that Mi Shou will run away decisively, which would mean they would have to spend a lot of effort chasing after him, so she deliberately uses arrogant language to provoke him.
“You can’t escape. The Moon Kingdom is already surrounded by our Cloud Ninja. We also control all the docks on the coast. If you surrender obediently and tell us all the information, we guarantee we won’t kill you.”
With a whoosh.
A gust of wind blew behind him, and Yura turned around and threw a kunai, destroying one of Yamori's water clones.
At that moment, dozens of shurikens shot out from the thick fog. Xia used his sword, Yongku, to deflect the shurikens and then heard a noise above his head.
Looking up, he saw Mi Shou leap down, his short sword thrusting straight down.
Yura took a step back, dodging the short sword, and the kunai pierced directly into Mikami's lower back. Mikami disappeared again.
"Another clone."
At this moment, more than a dozen Misaki rushed out of the fog and launched a continuous attack.
"Is he getting angry out of embarrassment? Haha!"
Holding a kunai, Yu Xia held her own against the onslaught of Mi Shou's shadow clones, even managing to defeat several of them.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
Suddenly, a huge fireball appeared in the thick fog and rushed towards Yu Xia and her shadow clone. The shadow clone's attack speed suddenly increased, clearly trying to hold Yu Xia back.
"Damn it, I can't dodge it! Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"
Yu Xia was entangled by the shadow clones and had no way to dodge. She could only consume a lot of chakra and spit out a huge water ball, which directly destroyed all the shadow clones and then crashed into the fireball.
Boom!
After a loud crash, the flames dissipated, water splashed out, and a shallow pool formed on the ground.
After consuming a large amount of chakra, Yu Xia was slightly out of breath. In the blink of an eye, the ground beneath his feet cracked, and his entire body was pulled underground, with only his head sticking out.
"The art of decapitation in one's heart!"
Misato jumped to the ground and severed Yuka's head with a single stroke.
puff.
Dissipated by summer,
Mi Shou's eyes widened in disbelief. "Shadow Clone Technique? How is that possible? When did you form the hand seals?!"
"When the Great Waterfall Technique obscures your vision, hahaha, Water Release: Water Prison Technique!"
A proud female voice came from behind Mi Shou. Just as he turned around, the water on the ground condensed into a sphere, trapping Mi Shou inside.
Xia made a mudra with his right hand and placed his left hand on the water prison, with some sweat on his forehead.
The battle that just took place was brief, but intense and deadly. A moment's carelessness could have resulted in death, so Xia is now somewhat exhausted.
However, her eyes were very bright.
"I've got you."
