The breeze was not dry, and the melodious sound of flowing water hitting the rocks could be heard. The flat field suddenly rose and fell, cutting into a low cliff. It was only seven or eight meters high, but it still formed a small waterfall.
"The last time I came here for a mission, there wasn't such a waterfall?" Takumi tilted his head and squatted on a round stone beside the stream. His hands were soaked in the stream, and the cool water washed his fingers, making him feel very comfortable.
After everyone finished eating their rations, they followed the sound and found this place. Immediately, their eyes lit up. After replenishing enough water, they all washed up. Along the way, blood and fire intertwined. Not only were their clothes soaked with sweat, but they were also drenched in sweat. When the cold stream water splashed on their faces, it did indeed make them more clear-headed.
Listening to Takumi's words, Keita said while washing his face, "What's so surprising about that? That small cliff was obviously raised by someone using Earth Release, and looking at the smooth surface of the broken edge, the person who did it must be a Jonin."
Keita couldn't help but dive into the water. It was so comfortable that he wanted to cry out, but he ended up spitting bubbles.
Hearing Gui Tai's comments, Zi nodded slightly. She was an expert of both earth and fire. Although she had chosen the more powerful Fire Escape as her main cultivation, Earth Escape's stealth was a great support in many situations. She didn't waste her time cultivating Earth Escape, so her eyesight wasn't inferior to Gui Tai's.
Thinking back, he relied on Earth Release to sneak around and took advantage of White Zetsu's carelessness to kill him. White Zetsu's strength stood at the peak of the ninja world.
Utsunomiya Fujino didn't approach the water, but instead, he stayed in the protective circle of Sakai and two other Root elites.
The weather was really hot!
Azu reached out her hand to block the scorching sun and looked at the sweaty Utsunomiya Fujino. She hesitated for a moment, but it seems that there are no enemies chasing after them, maybe she can relax a little …
"Boom!"
With a splash of water, Keita's whole body was thrown back. He spun twice in the air before he staggered and stood still. He opened his mouth and screamed.
"Enemy attack? Damn bastards, don't sneak attack me when I'm washing my face. This will leave a shadow in my heart. If I don't dare to wash my face, who can I reason with?" Gui Tai cursed endlessly. There was an inch long red mark on his forehead, and it looked like he had been slashed by a knife.
Little did he know that Bao Gui Mu, who was in the water, was the one who wanted to curse. Damn it, was there a need to use the hardening technique to wash his face? He used all his strength to slash down, leaving a red mark on Keita's head, while his dagger was chipped a few times.
The powerful recoil had also exceeded his expectations. After his first attack had failed, not to mention changing targets to launch a second attack, it had taken him a lot of effort just to stabilize his body.
And the direction of the flow of the stream seemed to have changed …
"Water Release: Great Whirlpool!"
Takumi shouted and his hands quickly formed a series of hand seals. When Keita landed on the ground, his ninjutsu had already been successfully released. A whirlpool the size of a basin suddenly appeared in the middle of the stream, and it was rapidly expanding. Soon, the stream was blocked by the whirlpool, and the scarlet liquid floated to the surface. The stream returned to its original state, and the glaring red color disappeared without a trace.
The water pressure formed by the whirlpool directly crushed Bao Gui Mu into minced meat, which was then washed away by the stream and turned into fish food, ending his life effortlessly.
The wind stopped blowing, and Utsunomiya Fujino sat under a tree, looking at the scene in horror. Before he could react, the battle had already ended.
"Die, Utsunomiya Famed Master!"
Just when Utsunomiya Fujino's heart was about to calm down, a loud roar was heard. The tree behind him that was so big that it would take five people to wrap their arms around it was broken. A black shadow passed through the tree and went straight for Utsunomiya Fujino's back.
"Don't even think about it."
Utsunomiya Fujino's reply was very firm. The Root Ninja, who was only in his twenties, jumped out and blocked Utsunomiya Fujino's back. He didn't have time to use ninjutsu, so he resolutely used his own body to form a defense line.
"Bang!"
A clear sound came from his chest. It was the sound of his sternum being crushed. A fist as big as a bowl reached out from his back, and half of his heart that was still beating was held in his hand. Blood bloomed, and it was smeared all over Utsunomiya Fujino's body.
But that was all. Takashi Moriya's fist was blocked, and it was stuck in the Root Ninja's body, and it couldn't move an inch further.
"Ninjutsu: Superbeast Fake Painting."
Sasai waved his brush and splashed the ink, instantly painting a painting. The ink eagle descended again, carrying Utsunomiya Fujino with a calm face to the sky. As long as he flew high enough in the sky, he would be able to avoid 99% of the attacks. Aerial combat ninjas were very rare.
"Wind Release: Vacuum Jade."
"Lightning Release: Lightning Spear."
In the forest, two calm voices sounded at the same time. Four Pine Sage stood side by side with Green Swamp Wing, and at the same time, they made hand seals and cast their spells. Almost transparent wind bullets broke branches and leaves, and with the momentum of a storm, they smashed towards the ink eagle in the sky.
After the wind bullets, the blue lightning condensed into a long spear, and it also locked onto the ink eagle's trajectory. If there were no accidents, the ink eagle wouldn't be able to dodge it with its flying speed.
Takashi Moriya's lips curled into a smile. The five of them worked together to plan the attack. Although Takashi died a little too quickly, the effect they wanted was achieved. As long as they killed Utsunomiya Fujino, they wouldn't have to fight against these Root Ninjas anymore.
"Damn it, a bunch of bastards, don't think that you can succeed." Takumi roared and instantly put on the tailed beast's clothes. He waved his hands in the sky, and two red Chakra hands quickly stretched out and grabbed Utsunomiya Fujino.
However, the situation didn't end there.
"Water Release: Water Wall."
At the bottom of the waterfall, a mighty wave of water suddenly rolled up into the air. The moment Takumi roared, the wave of water collided with the Chakra's hand with a powerful force and sent it flying. Moreover, it also set up a water barrier, blocking the path of the Chakra's hand as well as the attack route of Zi and the others.
"Haha, let's see how you can turn the tables now." Takashi couldn't help but laugh out loud. At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Utsunomiya Fujino, and both sides didn't attack each other.
The wet Wakashiro stood on the surface of the water with a smile on his face. The killing array set up by the five Jonins, Mu's surprise attack and distraction, Long's second attack, and Matsuyoshi and Aojiu's final attack, and finally, he was the bumper.
It was almost impossible to break his water wall and save Utsunomiya Fujino, but Takashi Shiro was confident.
