Chapter 38 Water and Fire (Part 2)
Fire snakes emerged from the ground, spiraled into the air around the homeless people, and took the lead in melting the first wave of thousands of books into juice, but this only eliminated the smallest part of the threat.
But as the air around the flames expanded rapidly due to the heat, all the thousands of books that followed were rolled back and blown away.
When the flame cyclone rose to the highest point, the powerless Qianben were absorbed and gathered together, and finally they were all thrown in all directions in a semi-melted state.
The Breath of Fire, the Four Types, and the Uzumaki of Shengyan are such a sword type that can defend and counterattack at the same time. It is quite effective against such all-round coverage attacks.
After the iron-state Qianben Tiannu fell to the ground like flowers, wisps of white smoke rose up under the impact of the rain.
The white smoke gradually spread, and the pungent smell slowly spread, harassing the nostrils of everyone present and present.
No one can tell whether it is because the Senbon is highly poisonous or because of harmful substances in the rain.
"who is it?"
"Rebels?"
"It's Fire Release! Everyone stands in the rain!"
The rain ninjas shouted one by one, reminding each other. But due to the smoke, it was difficult to see clearly what was going on behind it.
One by one, they took out their flying scythes or ninja swords and stood ready, scanning the surrounding forest with sharp and vigilant eyes. After all, they had noticed just now that first a red trajectory flew into the crowd, and then the red trajectory surged from the ground. Flame, so the caster should hide around it.
But this thought ended when a small figure jumped out of the hazy white eyes.
"Breath of Fire·One Type·Shiranui."
The small shadow disappeared in a flash, making several rain ninjas think there was something wrong with their eyes.
The next moment, a violently distorted burning air appeared in front of a rain ninja holding a mechanism umbrella without warning, which was exactly the same as the red light that had just escaped into the crowd.
"Wow!!!"
After the scream, the sound of broken bones was heard.
The entire body of the rain ninja seemed to be lifted up by a running rhinoceros, and flew out exaggeratedly. And as a ninja tool for the second round of attacks, he knocked down another rain ninja wearing a hat beside him to the ground.
The bodies of the two rolled awkwardly on the ground for more than ten times, covered with mud, and finally stopped at the feet of the rain ninja jounin, rolled his eyes and fainted.
The jounin frowned and examined intently. The first rain ninja who was attacked had a burnt black fist mark on his ribs. It was small and dazzling, but it could burn a raincoat dripping with ice water like this. You can imagine how high the temperature is.
[Can you use teleportation and fire escape? 】
"Clear the smoke and find him."
The jounin ordered, but his mood was still calm.
Ninjas who can use fire escape are rare in the Land of Rain, but in this kind of weather, the threat of fire escape ninjutsu is usually greatly reduced, and he happened to restrain it. The only thing you need to pay attention to is steam, smoke and other things that affect your vision.
"yes!"
The two rain ninjas opened their mechanical umbrellas toward the place where the white smoke rose, and used the gusts of wind formed by the high-speed rotation of the umbrella surface to disperse the obstacles that hindered their vision.
Soon, the white smoke dissipated, and the uninvited guest who landed on the two Amegakure chunin in the blink of an eye was officially revealed.
"There's only one person."
The Jonin looked at it intently, slightly surprised.
It was a kid wearing a cyan raincoat, with his right hand shining red like lava, and wearing a rather cheerful fox mask to eliminate disasters.
Perhaps it was because of the rainy day, but when the rain ninjas looked through the holes in the mask's eyes, they felt nothing but nothingness.
But judging from the opponent's constantly shifting neck, he was also sizing up the number and layout of the rain ninja.
The person who came was none other than Yiyong, who rushed here after receiving the message from the shadow clone.
Under the mask that others could not see, his cheeks were already red, and sweat was pouring out from under the mask, but it mixed with the rain outside so that nothing could be seen.
The reason why he had to use the breath of fire this time was because when he arrived here, the four trap umbrellas had already been opened, and the lives of these people were really at a critical juncture. The sword type of Water Breathing did not have a move that could instantly cross a distance of more than 20 meters. He wanted to use water to teleport, but there was no terrain condition.
Only the ninjutsu-formed Breath of Fire, One Type, and Shiranui can do this, but the consumption is equally astonishing.
But in return, with the special power of Yanhu, he can rush into the enemy at the speed of the teleportation technique. Against ordinary characters, he can almost defeat the enemy with one blow, and this is without the use of a knife.
The only drawback is that the fluctuations caused by Yan Hu's mobilization of natural energy are too strong. With Yiyong's current physical fitness, it is still a bit reluctant. Even adjusting the return call will be difficult in the short term.
But now it is in the rain, and although the load brought by the breath of fire is not as weakened to the extreme as in the waterfall, at least it is not out of control.
"Still a little brat..."
The Jonin narrowed his eyes and did not let down his guard because the person was only as tall as a seven or eight-year-old child.
As we all know, in Yuyin Village, even a child who wants to meet Sanshouyu Hanzo must be carefully searched, because there has been an incident where a kid assassinated Hanzo.
But as the saying goes, what is good above will be effective below. When ordinary rain ninjas heard about this incident, they had a perfect reason to "eliminate the roots" and "don't even let the children go" outside.
Judging from their experience today, this reason has become particularly strong.
"These refugees are indeed mixed up with the rebels who are against Hanzo-sama!"
While speaking, six rain ninjas, including this jonin (four went to catch the children, and two fainted), were constantly approaching Yiyong, trying to surround him.
Yi saw their thoughts, turned his head, and said coldly to the vagrants who escaped behind him: "If you don't want to die, disappear quickly."
There are too many vagrants, and he is alone.
Yiyong does not have the confidence of Purgatory to protect everyone, so he has to clear them out before the battle breaks out.
With his reminder, someone in the crowd immediately shouted: "Everyone run into the woods!"
They don't care whether Yiyong is a rebel or not, they just know that after what happened just now, if they don't run, they probably won't have hope of survival.
Although these people usually say "I'll just die", at the critical moment, everyone rushed to flee to the rainforest full of dangers.
But after a few couples hesitated, they went together to the direction where the children usually gathered.
Yiyong knew that these people would most likely meet the Rain Ninjas heading for the forest, so he frowned and reminded them not to take risks.
But ninjas are not arrogant ghosts, they will not miss any opportunity.
Yiyong's tilt of his head seemed to be a signal for the Rain Ninjas to launch an attack.
"Do you still have time to care about other people's lives? Being a hero in the Rain Country will not last long."
The jonin sneered, and the sound of rapid wind suddenly sounded.
Two flying sickles connected to steel ropes drew arc-shaped trajectories, biting Yiyong's neck from the left and right, like a biting bird's beak.
"Leave him to me, go and follow those people! Don't let them run away."
"Yes!"
Because he was distracted before, Yiyong had no time to resist, so he could only lean back to form a bridge, letting the two sickles cross above his (mask) nose tip, and when they collided, a series of sparks were wiped out. An unusually foul smell on the sickle rushed into Giyu's nose, reminding him of Shisui's reminder before he left.
"The weapons of the Rain Ninjas are all coated with various poisons."
From this, it can be seen that the Rain Ninjas had no intention of capturing Giyu from the beginning to the end, just like their attitude towards these vagrants. As long as they kill them directly, everything will be fine.
[No need to show mercy to them. ]
The moment the jonin tightened the rope and approached him, Giyu stepped heavily on the blade of the flying sickle and flew up.
Giyu's right index finger and thumb made a small circle on his lips, aiming at the two Rain Ninjas who tried to bypass him to chase the vagrants, spitting out fist-sized flames from his mouth, and simply chased them quickly in a straight line, and hit them on the spot without surprise.
"Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique!"
He has never used it, but it doesn't mean he doesn't know how to use it.
The raincoats of the two ninjas were ignited by the flames. One of them was hit directly by the ninja bag on his waist, which detonated the poison gas bomb inside and burned him into a human-shaped firework.
The other rain ninja who stopped moving forward because he wanted to put out the fire was caught up by Yiyong in two steps and chopped on the neck with a hand knife.
At this moment, the flying sickle of the jonin attacked Yiyong's back again. Yiyong ducked and dodged flexibly, but the rain ninja who was knocked unconscious by him but had not fallen down in time was cut in half by the flying sickle that passed over his head.
The jonin saw this scene and just blinked indifferently.
[Even his own people? ]
The blood completely dyed the disaster-eliminating mask red, and strange emotions grew in Yiyong's heart.
But while he hurriedly dodged the attack, two other chunins came to his side on the left and right!
"Water Style: Water Whip!"
They spit out the slender rope of water and held it in their hands, swinging towards Yiyong.
The latter rolled on the ground to avoid the attack from the right, but was hooked on the ankle by the water whip on the left.
"Good opportunity!"
The white-clothed jonin raised his eyebrows and used steel ropes to control the two flying sickles, making them fall straight down like a thousand-pound weight, and it was about to pierce both shoulder blades of Giyuu. But Giyuu looked calm, and without even making a seal, he raised his head and spit out a ball of red fire!
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"
The fireball with a diameter of more than three meters exploded out of thin air, and the high temperature directly evaporated the water that made up the water whip, and the two sickles were simply blown away.
It was just a coincidence that the pair of sickles took advantage of the dazzling light and thrust brought by the fireball to the sides and stabbed into the bodies of the two chunins using the water whip without any hindrance.
One of them had his chest cut open and fell to the ground dead on the spot.
Although the other one was not injured in the vitals, judging from his rapidly blue face, he would die from the poison in just a few minutes.
[It was still stained with human blood. 】
Giyuu has never killed a human being. Although this time was just a coincidence, he still took a human life.
In the past, there were people who cooperated with demons, but Giyuu always broke the other person's arm and handed it over to the police who knew about it.
Among the nine pillars, the only two who can directly kill humans who are in collusion with demons are the Sound Pillar, Uzui Tengen, who was once a ninja, and the Insect Pillar, Kocho Shinobu, who appears to be friendly but actually hates evil. As for Fuzugawa, although he looks irritable and impulsive, he is a person who absolutely follows the orders of the Demon Slayer Corps. At most, he will seriously injure and paralyze people.
But to be fair, although Giyuu is uncomfortable with the blood of a human, he does not regret it.
With these few ninjas, they could take away nearly two hundred lives without hesitation. Judging from the behavior, the harm they can cause is far more serious than the ghosts who eat people for survival!
What's more, these people have no intention of letting him go.
He cannot regard all human lives as equally important like Purgatory.
Jiyong will not show mercy to those who intend to kill him without a proper reason.
"Be careful, he can also use Konoha's fire escape!"
The jounin spoke too late. The Go fireball had not yet extinguished, and the fiery arc had already circled around him. Giyuu relied on the huge impact brought by Shiranui to punch the last chuunin into the tree!
Jiyong grabbed the ninja's arm and threw it back, blocking the bottle of poison that the jounin threw at him.
The bottle exploded in mid-air, and a purple mist quickly spread around, and it took a while before it completely dissipated.
As for the kunai and shurikens projected towards him during this period, they were naturally full of flaws in the eyes of an Uchiha. However, the other party did not expect to hurt Yiyong in this way.
The Jonin took advantage of this opportunity and finally completed a complex set of hand seals.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
The fourteen to five meter long water dragon spit out from the mouth of the Jonin and rushed towards Giyu at the speed of a torrent.
But Yiyong's eyes were full of doubts, because when he just saw the flying hand seals, he thought it was some extraordinary ninjutsu, so he was already prepared to deal with it with all his strength.
But he never expected that it was actually the Water Release and Water Dragon Bullet Jutsu with only three seals on the Second Hokage's Water Release Ninjutsu scroll. He also knows this technique.
"This is the water escape ninjutsu of a great nation. Let me see how you hide!"
The jounin announced loudly, as if this was something to be very proud of.
After all, this seemingly gorgeous technique was taught to him by Sanshouyu Hanzo himself!
After a brief moment of shock, Yiyong faced the ferocious water dragon bullet that was less than two meters away from him. His right fist was like a bright lantern. He suddenly stepped on the ground and jumped up high, aiming downwards at the dragon head that was pursuing him - —
"Five Types: Flame Tiger!"
"Roar--"
Accompanied by the terrifying roar of a tiger, a majestic flaming giant arm appeared out of thin air. Its thick tiger claws directly crushed the water dragon's head, and a big hole was made in the ground below.
Yiyong landed and gasped heavily.
With his mastery of Breath of Fire, he couldn't even use this move completely, otherwise it would be another large-scale move with destructive power comparable to Breath of Water, Form of Ten, and Flow of Life.
【Damn! He can use fire escape without using seals! 】
The Jonin finally saw the clues this time and thought it was another blood inheritance limit that he had never seen before.
[You have to run away quickly! 】
He didn't wait for Giyuu to counterattack, and immediately threw two kunai at the place where the water dragon was destroyed. After each kunai, there is a whole series of yellow talismans.
The detonating talisman of the rain ninja is homemade. Although it is less powerful, the cost is also lower. Once used, many of them will explode in a chain. This is also an important magic weapon for the rain ninja to avoid complete failure in the first two ninja wars.
In the huge air waves and smoke caused by more than twenty detonating talismans, the Jonin turned around and ran away without even looking at the result.
If it was a blood successor ninja, it would make sense if he was not an opponent, and I believe his superiors would understand.
But before he could run a few steps, the familiar dragon roar suddenly sounded.
While running at high speed, the jounin turned around with a horrified face, only to find that a water dragon that was much more exaggerated than before had opened its bloody mouth!
The water dragon swallowed him in one gulp and threw him towards the ground like a worm burrowing through the ground. He threw the jounin heavily to the ground, and the bones of his limbs were smashed on the spot.
Yiyong, who had adjusted his breathing method to water breathing, walked out of the smoke and dust, crushed the disaster relief mask that had been cracked by the detonating talisman, and looked silently at the bloody battlefield.
Strictly speaking, this was his first battle in this world. He didn't expect that there would be so many casualties, and only three people were still breathing.
[Now is not the time to sigh. 】
Yu Ren's act of kidnapping reminded him of a possibility.
He created a shadow clone and went to find the last four rain ninjas left in the forest. But he himself came to the jounin with a cold face.
"Tell me, where are you going to take those children?"
