In the forest, Shengshu and the other two were in trouble.
The carefully arranged trap before, don't be fooled by the momentum of the Senbō and the explosion talismans, but the effect wasn't very good. It only managed to slightly injure one of the Sand Village's subordinates, and he was even injured by the surprise attack of the Senbō.
That is, the poison smeared on the Senbō caused the ninja to temporarily lose his combat effectiveness.
Compared to the number of people fighting, Wood Leaf and the Sand were three to two.
However, there was a Chunin Puppeteer on the other side. It was well known that the Sand Village's Puppeteer were experts in using poison. Now, the Chunin Puppeteer was covering for his injured companion and dispelling the poison from his body.
The number of people fighting between the two sides went from three to two in Wood Leaf and the Sand to three to three, and there was still a Chunin in the Sand team.
While Kato Mitsukaze was distracted for a little while, Shengshu and the other two had already switched the offensive and defensive positions.
His three apprentices were not in a good state right now. Looking from afar, although there were no external injuries on their bodies, each of them had a red face.
Of course, their faces were not red because of shyness or embarrassment, but because of the black poisonous fog floating around them. Shengshu's face was the ugliest, and his face was already red with a hint of green, obviously, he was poisoned.
That is, the forest was still raining heavily, so the natural conditions were not very conducive to the Sand's poisonous fog attack.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be just Shengshu who was poisoned, it must be that all three of them were poisoned.
In the forest, Shengshu, Aburame, and Inuzuka were standing back to back in a defensive formation. Three Sand ninjas surrounded them, and a sharp claw shot out from the puppet's stomach and directly grabbed Inuzuka's face.
The Inuzuka Claw, which was the youngest and was a girl, became the enemy's breakthrough point.
When Kato Mitsukaze turned his attention back to the battle in the forest, he saw this scene. He was not in a hurry to be his master's nanny. Instead, he continued to stand on the tree and watch the battle in the forest below.
The sharp claws shone with a dark green cold light. It was obvious that they were smeared with poison. Just by looking at their appearance, it was much higher grade than the black poisonous fog floating around them.
"Zhiwei!"
After warning his companions, Shengshu didn't care if Oily Girl understood his intentions or not. He quickly moved his body and stepped on the rain to block Inuzuka Claw. He raised his kunai and blocked Inuzuka Claw's attack.
Black Maru, who was beside Inuzuka Claw, also gritted his teeth and rushed up.
"This idiot!"
Cursing in a low voice, Kato Mitsukaze was about to intervene in the battle below. His straight eyebrows twitched slightly as he stopped making hand seals.
Thinking about it, he was still a little worried. With a flash of light, Kato Mitsukaze's figure disappeared from the tree.
Shengshu was eager to protect his companions, so he used his body to block the attack for his companions. Although he was brave, it was obvious that he was too eager to fight and forgot that he was poisoned by the Sand ninja.
"Creak!"
Whoosh! Whoosh!
There were two consecutive sounds, the sound of the mechanism being activated.
Two hooked claws that were also smeared with poison poked their heads out of the pitch-black poisonous fog.
The target was Shengshu who was in front of the Wood Leaf Squad. Coupled with the poisoned claw, the purpose of the three hooked claws was not to attack Inuzuka Claw from the beginning.
They were going straight to Shengshu who was already deeply poisoned. In the previous short confrontation, the Sand ninja had obviously discovered Shengshu's reckless character.
The little girl with the dog looked like a soft persimmon, but Shengshu who was deeply poisoned and whose face began to turn green was the weakest among the three members of the Wood Leaf Squad.
Puchi! The sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh was heard. It was obvious that one of the three hooked claws shot out from the puppet hit Shengshu's body.
Shengshu who was deeply poisoned, his movements were somewhat slow. He used his kunai to block the attack of one of the hooked claws, the other one was dodged by his taijutsu, and the last one was aimed at his chest.
The last hooked claw hit Shengshu's shoulder. Then Shengshu felt a huge pulling force from the hooked claw. Obviously, the puppet hidden in the poisonous fog wanted to drag Shengshu into the fog.
"Zhi Wei, now!"
Shengshu didn't care about the wound on his shoulder. He threw away the kunai in his hand and wiped the rainwater off his face. Instead, he used both of his hands to pull the chain behind the hooked claw. Relying on his brute force, he controlled the flexible puppet and shouted to his companions behind him.
Except for the warning of Inuzuka Claw, Zhi Wei, who had been silent the whole time, understood his companions' intention when Shengshu blocked the hooked claw. At this time, he was making a hand seal with one hand and pressing the copper jar in front of him with the other hand.
Secret Technique of the Oily Woman Clan – Parasite Worm.
Zhi Wei was trying to use the parasite worm to cut off the connection between the puppet master and the puppet.
Using the parasite worm's ability to eat the enemy's Chakra, the parasite worm was able to bite off the Chakra thread between the puppet master and the puppet.
However, the speed of the puppet was very fast, and it was hidden in the poisonous fog, and it was blocked by the continuous rain. The parasite worm's movement speed was obviously not fast enough to keep up with the speed of the puppet.
The little loli Inuzuka Claw, who had been protected by her companions, was also not idle.
Kukamaru, who was running beside Shengshu, didn't know when she changed into Inuzuka Claw. Because she was running fast on all fours, her body was covered with mud. She didn't look like a delicate little loli anymore.
She looked like a fierce beast pouncing on its prey in the rain. She passed by the puppet master who was entangled by her companions, relying on the sensitive sense of smell ninjutsu of the Inuzuka Clan, she followed the smell of the puppet master and went straight to the main body in the poisonous fog.
Secret Technique of the Inuzuka Clan – Four Feet Technique.
The little loli Inuzuka Claw, who looked the most harmless, was now the strongest person in Shengshu's team.
Shengshu, Zhi Wei, and Inuzuka Claw had the same goal, and their cooperation was also very tacit. They wanted to eliminate the biggest threat to the three of them at all costs.
As long as the puppet master was still fighting, the three Wood Leaf Genin's chances of winning were not high. The longer the battle dragged on, the lower their chances of winning.
Shinji and the other two have already experienced this before. The Sand Team relied on the deterrence of the Chunin Puppeteer, and bit by bit, they regained the disadvantage of being ambushed and attacked by the Sand Team.
Shengshu's strong physique acted as the team's meat shield and bait.
Zhi Wei's Secret Technique of Parasite acted as the team's restraint and control.
Inuzuka Claw's Beast Mimicry Secret Technique, coupled with her deceptive appearance, acted as the team's sharpest knife.
Shengshu's team's plan could be said to have taken advantage of each member's strengths. It couldn't be said that there were no loopholes, but it wasn't easy for them to make the best solution for their team in a split second.
There was a muffled groan in the poisonous fog, and then the black poisonous fog began to dissipate and become thin, and then under the washing of the rain, it could no longer block the surrounding vision.
Obviously, Shengshu's plan worked.
Inuzuka Claw was lying on the ground in the rain, gasping violently. Beside her, there was a ninja with a forehead protector lying on the ground, holding his stomach with both hands.
The wound on the Sand Puppeteer's stomach was still bubbling with blood, and the red blood soon mixed with the mud around his body, making it impossible to distinguish between the color of the mud and the color of the blood.
The puppet master's eyes were also wide open, he didn't understand why his teammates didn't help him when he was attacked by the enemy at close range.
As everyone knows, most of the Sand Puppeteer's abilities were concentrated on the puppets in their hands, and their bodies were quite fragile, once the enemy got close to them, the consequences would be terrible.
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, the Sand Puppet Master, who didn't say a single line, took one last look at his two teammates standing motionless in the distance and swallowed his last breath with hatred. His eyes never closed again, obviously he died with a grievance.
"Is it over?"
Shengshu asked while gasping for breath.
Hiss!
The movement of speaking affected the wound on Shengshu's shoulder, coupled with the stimulation of the wound by the rain, the most intense and tense moment was over, and the pain made him take a deep breath.
"Not yet, the enemy still has two Sand Genin! Now it's up to you, Shengshu. "
The sunglasses man saw that the plan worked, so he said to Shengshu in a cool voice.
"I don't have Chakra …"
Shengshu spat out half a sentence with difficulty, then he turned his head and looked at Inuzuka Claw in the distance.
Inuzuka Claw, who was also gasping for breath, was also looking at Shengshu and Aburame's direction. At this moment, he couldn't maintain his four-legged beast form anymore, so he sat down in a puddle of blood and mud, looking like he had used up his Chakra.
Shengshu turned his head to Aburame and showed an ugly smile: "What about you, Aburame?"
"Don't look at me, I was able to control the enemy's puppets and also interfere with the Chakra inside the puppet master's body, I don't have any Chakra left either."
Aburame, who was rarely silent, said a long sentence. After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and took off his sunglasses, then he wiped the rainwater off his face and put them back on his face.
He can lose the battle, but he can't mess up his cool appearance with sunglasses, who knows which unscrupulous teacher he learned this bad habit from.
"Kuromaru …"
Shengshu wiped the rainwater off his face and turned his gaze to Kuromaru, who was guarding Aburame.
"Woof!"
Kuromaru stared at Shengshu with his two cute dog eyes. He was already a wet dog, so he barked at Shengshu, then he stretched out his four limbs and crawled into the puddle of rainwater on the ground. He stuck out his tongue, obviously he was also exhausted.
Kuromaru didn't do nothing in the battle just now. Before Kato Mitsukaze's attention was diverted here, Shengshu, Aburame, and Kuromaru worked together to stall for a long time.
Finally, Nobunaga's face turned ugly as he looked at the two Sand Shinobis who were standing on both sides of them.
Shengshu and the other two's plan was very good. They directly grasped the key contradiction and attacked the Sand Genin who was the biggest threat to them. However, they obviously overestimated the gap between themselves and a Chunin.
After spending a lot of effort to kill the biggest enemy and eliminate the biggest threat, the three people and one dog didn't have the Chakra and experience to support another battle.
In fact, Shengshu and the other two's plan still had loopholes. The Sand Genin had teammates, although it was only two Sand Genin, but they weren't dead people who only knew how to stand still.
Even Konoha's Shinobi knew that the Sand Puppet Master's weakness was their weakness in close combat, so how could they not know?
In the rain of the forest, Konoha's Genin started their counterattack, and now, the Sand Puppeteer died with their eyes wide open. They didn't move because they were already dead.
This is also the reason why the Sand Genin died with his eyes wide open.
Of course, it was Kato Mitsukaze, the nanny of the three Wood Leaf Genin, no, it was their master who secretly made a move.
In the previous chaotic battle, taking advantage of the dark fog blocking their vision, two light blue wind blades slashed the necks of the other two Sand Shinobis. Kato Mitsukaze directly erased the loopholes in the plan for his disciples.
Otherwise, how could Shengshu and the other two kill the Sand Genin Puppet Master so easily?
Well, it wasn't that easy, at least the three people and one dog exhausted their Chakra, and Shengshu also suffered a lot of injuries.
With Kato Mitsukaze's current means, especially his extreme speed, it was easy for him to sneak attack the two Sand Genin and keep their bodies in the state they were in when they were alive.
Until now, Shengshu and the other two still didn't know that their master, Kato Mitsukaze, had secretly made a move, otherwise, Shengshu's face wouldn't be so ugly.
"Yo, Shengshu, what kind of style is this? It's very unique! "
With a light and refreshing voice in Shengshu's ear, a light blue light flashed, and Kato Mitsukaze's figure appeared in the rain of the forest.
Hearing the familiar voice, Shengshu, who has been maintaining a fighting posture, couldn't hold on anymore, regardless of the Sand Genin who were still standing there motionless, he sat down on the ground.
"Kato -dage, we just killed a Sand Genin Puppeteer!"
Shengshu's voice revealed a hint of excitement, he couldn't hold on any longer, the reason why he was able to maintain a standing posture before was because he still wanted to protect his companions.
Now that he heard Kato Mitsukaze's voice, Shengshu knew that he was safe, and he didn't have any strength left to stand.
Although he didn't have any strength left, and there were still two enemies on the scene, but it didn't matter, Shengshu wanted to show off to his master, and show off that he successfully killed a strong enemy.
Shengshu's bragging voice just fell, and then he heard the sound of two heavy objects falling into the water.
Turning his head again, Shengshu saw that the Sand Genin who was still standing a moment ago had already fallen into the muddy rain.
Looking up at Kato Mitsukaze's figure, Shengshu understood that Kato Mitsukaze secretly made a move in the battle just now.
"Kato -dage … …"
Shengshu called Kato Mitsukaze, his mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't say the words he wanted to show off.
