Chapter 160: One Man Guards the Pass, Thousands of Troops Are in Danger! (6K, Please Subscribe!) (1/2)
At the northern outpost of Konoha, more than a hundred Konoha ninjas gathered in the watchtower in the middle.
On the top floor of the watchtower, which was dozens of meters high, Captain Sarutobi Shinnosuke was with a Hyuga ninja.
A group of Konoha ninjas behind him were all sitting on the ground to gather their strength and ready to fight at any time.
"Something is happening!"
At this time, the Hyuga ninja suddenly warned:
"More than 500 meters away, there are two teams of ninjas heading here!"
Sarutobi Shinnosuke's face sank, and he immediately shouted: "How many people are there?!"
"In the east and west directions, the two teams have no less than 300 people in total! They will soon surround this place! What should we do, Captain!"
"So many people! We can't defend here! Which direction has more people?" Sarutobi Shinnosuke thought quickly and said hurriedly.
"There are more people in the west and fewer in the east!"
"We have no choice but to attack! According to the original plan, eleven earth-style ninjas will stay here to create chaos and trigger the trap when the enemy approaches.
The rest of you, follow me to attack the enemy in the east. Be careful not to fight too long. If the enemy in the west comes to support, immediately move to the next underground sentry. We have to kill them bit by bit!"
"Yes!"
Sarutobi Shinnosuke gave an order, and the remaining Konoha ninjas all followed him and rushed downstairs.
As soon as he left the watchtower, Sarutobi Shinnosuke found that the Hyuga ninja was still following him. His face immediately darkened, and he stopped and said:
"Takuto, why are you following me?! Hurry up!"
Hyuga Takuto shouted: "Captain! Let me go with you!"
Sarutobi Shinnosuke said sternly: "As long as there is one Hyuga ninja in the team, it will be fine! Go to the next outpost! This is an order! I allow you to retreat when necessary! Get out!"
Sarutobi Shinnosuke ignored him and rushed towards the dense forest in the east without looking back.
"Hey!" Hyuga Takuto looked at Sarutobi Shinnosuke's back, he gritted his teeth, sighed suddenly, and finally obeyed the order, leading three tribesmen to move to the next outpost.
I don't know if half of the more than 100 people can come back alive.
But as long as someone can come back, they still need to continue to defend the next underground secret post.
The remaining four Hyuga ninjas have to be arranged first.
Before rushing into the dense forest, Sarutobi Shinnosuke looked back at the departing figure of Hinata Takuto, then sped up and led the team to prepare to ambush the Cloud Ninja.
Over the course of one night, they set up traps that could be triggered actively in the east, west, and north directions of the watchtower, waiting for the Cloud Ninja to attack.
"As long as the front line is not lost, even if there is only one person left, we cannot abandon the outpost!" Sarutobi Shinnosuke made up his mind secretly, and couldn't help but think of his wife, brother, and his father, the Third Hokage.
Perhaps after today, he will also be a hero remembered by people, and his name will be engraved on the memorial.
Looking at the ninjas running around, maybe everyone's names can be engraved together.
******
In the southern border of Tianguo, outside Hulu Valley, Qianhe suddenly triggered the 6-light BUFF, and his speed suddenly doubled. Not only did he escape the encirclement of the Cloud Ninja, but he also killed more than a dozen of them instantly.
After escaping from the encirclement, Qianhe's golden light escape chakra burst out again, and he caught up with the Kumogakure ninja who was rushing towards Hulu Valley.
"The burst after adding the light BUFF is really abnormal! This speed of instantly killing more than a dozen jonins is comparable to that of Flying Thunder God, but it consumes too much chakra. I have to hurry!"
Since he used the Sage Mode once, Qianhe used [Redemption] to restore his chakra
Just now, 6 light BUFFs were triggered, and Qianhe's speed and burst reached the limit. Although it was exaggerated to kill more than a dozen jonins in one move, his chakra also dropped by three quarters at once.
And if it weren't for the light BUFF that could temporarily enhance his physical fitness, he would not dare to move continuously at high speed, because his body could not bear the load and was prone to stagnation and stiffness.
Although the light BUFF cannot restore chakra like redemption, its ability to recover injuries can also restore a small amount of chakra.
Qianhe's chakra was originally consumed by more than half at once, and his body suddenly felt empty.
As a result, a steady stream of energy emerged from his body. Although it was slow, it was long-lasting. As long as he did not use the burst of light escape for more than ten times, he would be able to fight normally.
If it really didn't work, he still had the last shadow clone of the sage mode left in Myoboku Mountain.
After Qianhe caught up with the dozens of Kumogakure ninjas in the front, he restrained most of the light escape chakra on his body and only maintained the blessing of his body speed.
"He can't hold on! Hurry up!"
The Kumogakure leader behind him saw the golden light on Qianhe's body suddenly drop, and knew that the magical move just now was also extremely consuming for him, so he immediately ordered a siege.
The Kumogakure ninjas, who were shocked by Qianhe's instant killing of more than a dozen jonin, immediately reacted and attacked Qianhe again.
Ding ding ding ding ding!
Swish swish swish swish!
Qianhe was holding the Butu sword to block the shuriken and kunai shot from behind, and with the other hand, he grabbed four flying thunder god kunai and threw them out.
"Be careful of the kunai! Get out of the way! He knows the Flying Thunder God Technique!"
As soon as Qianhe's kunai was fired, the leader of the Kumogakure ninja shouted to warn the ninjas in front.
The Kumogakure ninjas who were about to turn around and fight back all dodged to the sides as if they had seen a ghost.
Even if they had not seen the Flying Thunder God Technique of the Fourth Hokage, which shocked the world, they had heard of it, so they naturally did not dare to try it, and they pulled away as soon as they heard the reminder.
As long as they stay away from the kunai, they are naturally not afraid of the Flying Thunder God.
And Qianhe seemed to be too hasty and did not grasp the accuracy well, and the four Flying Thunder God Kunai flew straight ahead.
At this time, he suddenly took out four ordinary kunai from the ninja bag and threw them fiercely.
The four ordinary kunai were launched later but hit the metal ring at the tail of the special kunai respectively.
Just when the special kunai was about to shoot into the air, it turned because of the ordinary kunai's attack, and two kunai flew to the enemies on both sides.
This scene was not only the ninjas in the back, but also the Kumogakure ninjas on both sides were stunned by Qianhe's shuriken technique.
Although it was only less than a second, this less than a second of stunnedness was the difference between life and death.
Swish, swish, swish!
Except for the dozen people who reacted the fastest, they escaped and were only injured by Qianhe.
The other dozens of Kumogakure ninjas who were stunned and unable to react in time only felt a dazzling golden aurora in front of them. They died before they could see clearly.
Because it was too fast, they didn't even feel when their heads fell to the ground. They died without pain and were very peaceful.
The expressions on their faces were still at the moment of daze.
After killing dozens of people again, Qianhe felt a sense of emptiness in his body, but it was offset by the recovery effect of the light BUFF in an instant.
In fact, after such intense battles and high-speed and high-frequency movements, the body should have been close to the limit.
It's just that the light BUFF is too powerful, and the continuous recovery offsets the negative states such as fatigue of the body. I just don't know if the body will be so painful that I can't move after the light BUFF ends.
When I tested the light BUFF before, my body was only weak for one or two days afterwards, but the battle at that time was at the level of testing and training, while now it is a life-and-death battle, and the consumption is different.
But Qianhe couldn't care so much at this time. As long as he dealt with these people in front of him, the task was basically completed.
Looking at the remaining dozen Kumogakure ninjas rushing towards Hulugu, Qianhe did not chase them this time.
There were more than 200 Konoha ninjas over there, and his mentor, Kawashima Kaede, was there. If he couldn't deal with the dozen injured people, Qianhe would have no choice.
He had to keep the remaining strength to deal with the remaining people.
The two attacks of Light Release and Flying Thunder God killed nearly a hundred people in seconds, and there were still nearly 200 people left.
These people looked at the scattered Flying Thunder God Kunai around Qianhe, and no one dared to move in the direction behind him.
Both sides maintained a strange state of stillness, and Qianhe stood there.
And those Kumogakure ninjas could not retreat, and dared not advance.
"Don't run if you have the guts! Fight me one-on-one!"
Facing the elite ninjas who were suddenly killed instantly, the leader of the Kumogakure ninjas was furious. In a hurry, he spoke incoherently and lost his mind directly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the leader of the Kumogakure ninja felt a little embarrassed, but he was still cautious and alert to Qianhe, thinking about countermeasures quickly.
He found that it was not enough to be a perception-type ninja to deal with Qianhe, and he had to keep up with Qianhe's speed.
Even if he could keep up with Qianhe's speed, he had to react quickly enough to defend against Qianhe's Flying Thunder God Slash.
He thought carefully, it seemed that except for the four generations of Raikage, Killer Bee, and Yukito, the others would probably have a hard time against Qianhe.
Unfortunately, Killer Bee and Yukito went to defend the Hidden Rock Village, and now they were at the border of the Frost Country. Even if they wanted to rush to help, it would take at least more than a day.
The rest could only wait for the four generations of Raikage to deal with Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas of Konoha, and then rush to deal with Qianhe.
If he had known that Qianhe's strength was so terrifying, he would not have let Qianhe get close to their army so easily.
Just let the Chunin and Genin stay outside the narrow passage, and then two or three hundred Jonin will directly besiege, and it will not be so difficult with the help of sensory ninjas.
Now the battlefield is divided by a terrifying range fire ninjutsu, and the Jonin on the other side cannot provide support in a short time.
But he never dreamed that a kid who looked eight or nine years old in Konoha was as powerful as the top ninjas in their village.
Not only was his speed extremely fast and his swordsmanship superb, making him feel like he was facing Lord Killer Bee, but even the Flying Thunder God Technique of the Fourth Hokage reappeared in the world.
Is this still a human?
No matter how shocked and regretful the leader of the Cloud Hidden Ninja was, the Cloud Hidden Ninja army he led had now lost the initiative.
Obviously, hundreds of Chunin and Jonin surrounded Qianhe, but he felt like he was surrounded.
Hearing this, Qianhe smiled faintly and slowly raised the Butu Sword in his hand.
Seeing Qianhe's reaction, the surrounding Kumogakure ninjas immediately became cautious and alert, all looking at him nervously, and some ninjas who were intimidated subconsciously took a half step back.
Qianhe pointed the tip of his sword at the leader of the Kumogakure ninjas, looked at the more than 100 Kumogakure ninjas in front of him, and said:
"You want a one-on-one fight? Did you say that wrong?
It's obviously me against your army.
Remember my name, Kitahara Qianhe."
As soon as the voice fell, Qianhe walked over with the sword.
The Kumogakure ninjas were immediately shaken and lost their courage when they heard Qianhe's words. Looking at him walking slowly, they didn't know what to do for a moment.
Facing Qianhe's Flying Thunder God Technique, these Jonin and Chunin were like Genin who had just graduated and went to the battlefield, and died inexplicably.
Since they were on the battlefield, they were naturally prepared to die in battle, but not this kind of death.
No matter how powerful or weird their ninjutsu, taijutsu, swordsmanship, and illusions are, no one can touch the hem of Qianhe's clothes. How can they fight?
As long as Qian He touches them, they will be gone.
He can fight when he wants and leave when he wants.
This is not war, this is massacre.
They looked at Qian He who was walking slowly, as if they were seeing the God of Death, their eyes full of fear.
And fear is contagious.
At this time, the leader of the Kumogakure ninja opened his lips slightly, neither advancing nor retreating, although he wanted to yell: surround me and charge me.
But facing Qian He who has the Flying Thunder God, this is tantamount to death.
boom!
"It's bad! The earth flow wall can't stop it!"
At this time, a loud noise came from behind the Kumogakure ninja, and the dozen layers of earth flow walls that had been used to block the boiling oil finally reached their limit.
Large swaths of rolling, smoking oil rushed in with the force of sweeping everything.
"Earth Escape: Earth Current City Wall!"
At this time, the leader of the Kumogakure ninjas had no time to attack Qianhe. He hurriedly ran towards the rear and used an earth flow wall. A thick stone wall more than ten meters high rose directly from the ground, which can be called a man-made dam.
"Huh?" Qian He raised his eyebrows when he saw this. He could have taken action just now, but he didn't, because if he couldn't stop the hot oil, the hot oil would surge towards Calabash Valley later, and he would have to take action himself, wasting chakra. .
At this time, the Kumogakure ninja leader is taking care of it, so he will naturally not stop it.
It's just that he didn't expect that this person was very accomplished in Thunder Release and Earth Release Ninjutsu. Fortunately, he was not allowed to pass through here.
Otherwise, if he uses two advanced earth escape ninjutsu, he can directly change the terrain, and it will be difficult to defend the Calabash Valley.
However, after the Kumogakure ninja leader used the advanced earth escape ninjutsu, he was panting and looked like he was drained.
After repeated high-intensity battles, his chakra was almost exhausted.
He doesn't have Qianhe's recovery ability.
Seeing that the earthen wall could block the hot oil for a while, Qian He felt relieved.
Sooner or later, the gap on the east side will wait for the hot oil to drain out, so there will be no problem here.
Thinking of this, Qian He's unhurried steps speeded up instantly.
"careful!"
"ah!"
The Kumogakure ninjas just yelled when they saw this. Before anyone could take precautions, two of them fell under Qianhe's sword.
"What happened just now? There was no Flying Thunder God Kunai, why?"
Facing Qianhe's light escape, these people confused the flying thunder god's technique with the light escape, thinking that the acceleration of Qianhe's light escape was also the flying thunder god's technique.
The death of the two jounin caused everyone away from the kunai to panic again. This was a completely one-sided battle, despite their large numbers.
At this time, Qian He returned to the same place again after dealing with the two of them.
He found that after beating like this for a while and resting for a few seconds, the chakra recovery would just keep up with the consumption.
For a moment, he was not in a hurry to attack.
Thinking of this, Qian He returned to the original place and closed his eyes.
"careful!"
Seeing Qianhe closing his eyes, all the surrounding Kumogakure ninjas were frightened and backed away to prevent Qianhe from using any more perverted ninjutsu.
"Use ninjutsu to attack him from a distance. Let's stay together and don't scatter!"
At this time, another Kumogakure Jonin commanded.
The reason why Qianhe closed his eyes was because he wanted to use Kagura's inner eye to sense the surrounding situation.
"Huh? These four chakras belong to Jiraiya and the two immortals. The chakra of the Fourth Raikage has become a lot weaker. It seems that there is an advantage."
Through perception, Qianhe felt relieved.
"Fire Release·Dragon Fire Technique!"
"Thunder Release: Thunder Tiger!"
"Thunder Escape·Thunder Snake!"
"Thunder Release: Thunder Ball Scattering Flower Technique!"
"Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!"
...
Before Qian He opened his eyes, a series of ninjutsu came towards him.
brush!
Qianhe transferred a Flying Thunder God Jutsu to another Light Tribulation clone, directly dodging many ninjutsu.
Poof!
brush!
Poof!
...
Flying Thunder God's five consecutive cuts!
Five consecutive teleportations, directly killing the ninjas surrounding the five Light Tribulation clones.
At this time, the clones of the Five Great Light Tribulations stood in front of Qian He.
Qian He, who was standing behind Guang Jie's clone, panted slightly. He felt a little tired.
There is only about one-fifth of the chakra left.
Simply speaking, his current attainment in the Flying Thunder God Technique does not consume much chakra.
But to maintain the speed of light escape, chakra is still consumed.
He has not noticed before that although the light BUFF can enhance physical fitness, speed up recovery, and double the speed when triggered, the mental fatigue is difficult to offset, and [redemption] is necessary.
But his [redemption] has already been used once.
Qianhe, who was always highly focused, felt a little tired. He didn't even notice that the second magatama Sharingan in his left eye evolved into a 'three magatama' during the battle.
At this time, four of the five surrounding Light Tribulation clones suddenly gathered towards Qian He's body and entered his body instantly.
The [Light Tribulation Clone 5 Metkai] that stayed in place directly opened the eight doors of Dunjia, and opened the fifth door in a blink of an eye.
Bang!
With the addition of light BUFF, [Light Tribulation Clone 5 Metkai] shoots towards the opposite side like a cannonball!
Then Qian He followed closely behind and rushed towards the hundreds of people in front.
Facing the attack of the ninja in front, the Light Robbery clone in his body appeared directly, turning from virtual to real, and directly blocked the damage.
Beep——
[Light Robbery Clone 3 died at the same time]
Beep——
[Guardian Angel uses countdown...2, 1, 0, resurrection! ]
Beep——
[Light BUFF stacking activated! ]
Beep——
[.....]
......
When Qianhe rushed to the crowd, except for [Light Robbery Clone 5 Might Guy], the other 5 Light Robbery clones were all killed, and then after the resurrection armor was resurrected, all were taken back by Qianhe.
And with the death of the Light Robbery clones, the light BUFF continued to stack, and Qianhe's light escape chakra continued to increase, and the [Light Robbery Clone 5 Might Guy] on the other side who opened five gates was also.
When the light BUFF was stacked, Qianhe's chakra continued to accelerate recovery.
Although he felt that the speed was not stacked according to 200%+200%, his speed was indeed faster!
[Sixth Gate! Jingmen! Open! 】
Under Qianhe's command, the chakra of [Light Robbery Clone 5 Might Guy] who rushed into the crowd surged again!
The whole person was directly wrapped in the golden and green intertwined light!
Boom boom boom!
"Ah!"
......
The explosive [Light Robbery Clone 5 Might Guy]'s combat power exceeded Qianhe's imagination under the superposition of multiple BUFFs.
One punch, one kick, just a simple physical technique, after the speed and strength reach a certain level, anyone hit by him will be directly beaten to death with broken bones and internal organs.
Soon Qianhe, who followed behind him, broke through the encirclement of the Cloud Hidden Ninja and approached the Cloud Hidden Ninja leader.
In the end, Qianhe sacrificed [Light Robbery Clone 5 Might Guy] in the other party's horrified eyes. With 6 light BUFFs superimposed, the Cloud Hidden Ninja leader was killed by him with one sword.
The two or three hundred Cloud Hidden Ninjas around, except for the dozen ninjas who deliberately leaked to the direction of Hulu Valley at the beginning, all others were killed by Qianhe.
So far, Qianhe can be said to have basically blocked the enemy in this battle.
He almost wiped out the enemy's elite alone.
Nearly half of the three thousand troops have been wiped out.
On the other side, although more than a dozen jonins were missed in the direction of Hulu Valley, Konoha had two hundred people guarding the gate after all. Relying on the advantage of numbers and the leadership of Kawashima Kaede, they killed all the enemies.
At this time, Qianhe, carrying the corpse of the leader of the Cloud Ninja, slowly rose into the sky with the blessing of light escape.
In the process of flying into the sky, he lifted the Thunder Light Tribulation Transformation and restored his original appearance.
His body was spotless, but there was still blood dripping on the Butu Sword in his hand.
Qianhe flew over the bubbling boiling oil below and flew towards the Cloud Ninja Army that retreated several hundred meters.
At this time, the Cloud Ninja Army no longer had the momentum when it came.
Even the ninjas who had luckily escaped Goemon's attack were still in a state of shock and embarrassment, and their faces were blackened by the thick smoke.
"Listen, Kumogakure ninja! Your leader has been killed by me! The reinforcements from Konoha are coming soon! Your action this time is doomed to fail from the beginning!
Now! Get out of here with your defeated troops!"
As he said that, Qianhe wrapped the head of the Kumogakure leader with light attribute chakra and threw it into the Kumogakure army.
Swish!
Boom!
The head of the Kumogakure leader flew out directly like an arrow from a bow.
A large pit with a diameter of more than five meters was directly blown out of the hundred-meter ground, but the head wrapped in light escape was unscathed.
Kumogakure ninjas are the most warlike among the five major countries. They have always been tough and fearless.
But facing an invincible enemy with thousands of times more people, they were defeated miserably.
They witnessed the birth of the purgatory on earth with their own eyes.
Their friends, teammates, and relatives were killed by people floating in the sky.
But now they have nothing left in their hearts except fear.
Among the five great nations, Tsuchikage Ohnoki can also fly, but no matter how strong he is, he is not as shocking as Qianhe who swept through thousands of troops and then slowly took off into the air. Is this a human? This is a god!
How can a human fight a god?
"What is this?"
"What are we fighting against?"
"Run!"
"Monsters!"
It is unknown which group of ninjas started it, and the Kumogakure ninjas who lost their command rushed to scatter.
With someone taking the lead, the army lost their morale, and in a blink of an eye, the already scattered army turned into a pile of loose sand and fled.
......
At this time, on the cliff of Hulu Valley, Hyuga Tengen watched all this with his eyes rolled up.
"The Kumogakure army retreated... We... won..."
He stared blankly at Qianhe, who was floating in the sky and wrapped in light escape, like a god.
He witnessed history, miracles, and the myth of Konoha.
Everything happened before his eyes.
One person guards the gate, and thousands of troops are evaded!
