Two o'clock in the morning.
At this time, the sky rarely started to clear up.
The bright moon is in the sky, and under the moonlight that shines selflessly on the world, the rainforest that has been pockmarked by ninjutsu is colorful and shadowy, as if countless terrifying monsters are lurking.
The fresh air after the rain is mixed with the smell of corpses and blood, reminding everyone all the time that this place is a Shura field filled with boundless killing.
Behind the rain ninja position, Sanshouyu Hanzo stood at the front of the ninja army, carrying his usual chain sickle.
Except for some ninjas who are still deployed at the front to cover the movement of the ninja army, all the strength of the rain ninja on the Western Front is about to be here.
There were more than a dozen rain ninja sealing technique ninjas around who were working hard to use barrier techniques to cover up the chakra fluctuations of the ninja army.
Two thousand seven hundred people. This is the limit that Rain Ninja can reach after repeated battles.
But it was filled with more than half of the genin.
It's just... I don't know how many people will survive and return after this battle.
Sanshouyu Hanzo sighed inaudibly.
Looking up at the bright moonlight, it seemed that the dark clouds under the moonlight were about to be enveloped in a hazy blood mist.
The Yu Ninja who manages supplies are distributing detonating charms, with ten people in hand. This is also the last inventory of the Western Front Yu Ninja.
Some rain ninjas immediately attached the detonating charms to their bodies after receiving the distributed detonating charms. Sanshouyu Hanzo saw all this, his lips moved slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything.
"Hanzo-sama, the ninja army is ready..."
A familiar Jonin walked up to Hanzo and said softly.
Sanshouyu Hanzo nodded calmly.
The eyes under the mask slowly glanced at the excited Rain Ninja Army. Their eyes moved very slowly, as if they wanted to imprint everyone in the general formation into their minds.
"Everyone..."
After a while, Sanshouyu Hanzo slowly spoke.
All the rain ninjas were holding their breath as they listened to the leader's speech.
"I will lead the charge..."
The rain ninja's breathing began to become heavier.
Although Hanzo's voice was not loud, in the dead silence at this time, the whole ninja army could hear it clearly.
"...I hope that the brave rain ninjas will join me in defeating the enemy with their determination to die,"
"This battle is bound to succeed!"
The rain ninja held the weapon in his hand tightly, trying his best to suppress the war cry that seemed to be about to burst out of his throat.
Afterwards, Sansho Hanzo turned around and ran towards Sunagakure.
Twelve clan ninjas also wearing masks followed closely behind him.
He wanted to summon the psychic beast Sanshouyu and Ibushi as soon as possible after the battle to use poisonous mist to tear apart Sunagakure's formation. Ordinary rain ninjas could not get too close to him.
Afterwards, the rain ninjas, whose size was a hundred-man team, followed one after another.
In order to cover up their whereabouts as much as possible, Hanzo and the ninja troops under his command did not use chakra, but just relied on the muscle power of their legs to start moving forward in secret.
Close, close...
About a kilometer away from Sunagakure's main formation, Sanshouyu Hanzo's breathing began to quicken.
Even though he had experienced hundreds of battles, this was the first time for him to charge so decisively to the death, and the only ones fighting were the last members of the Rain ninja on the Western Front, so Hanzo couldn't help but be careless.
Come a little closer...
Sanshouyu Hanzo controlled the urge to summon the psychic beast. Although this distance is not a big deal to a strong person, if he can get closer to the enemy camp, the poisonous gas cast by the summoned psychic beast will naturally cover a wider area. The number of Sunagakure killed and wounded will be greater, and the number of rain ninjas under his command will also be reduced.
Eight hundred meters away...
Through his own senses, Sanshouyu Hanzo can detect the Sandgakure secret whistle lurking two hundred meters away.
Although it does not lurk to the optimal distance of 500 meters, it is enough...
He began to form seals meticulously.
"Psychicism!"
A thick smoke rose, and the ferocious-looking Sanshou Fish Well broke through the ground!
"Sansho Fish·Poison Mist Spray!"
The psychic beast Sanshou Uoibushi, who has been with him for many years, immediately sprayed dark green high-concentration poisonous mist towards the Sunagakure position ahead.
"Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!"
The personal ninjas under his command also used wind release ninjutsu to increase the spread speed and coverage of the poisonous mist.
"Choo Choo Choo!"
Almost at the same time that Sanshouyu Hanzo used his psychic beast to reveal chakra fluctuations, the Sunagakure sentry lurking ahead was about to stand up and release a signal.
However, Sanshouyu Hanzo used a water teleportation technique to step forward and behead him easily and calmly.
But there was a sentry in the rear that he failed to detect and risked his life to send out an enemy attack signal.
It is also expected.
After all, Sunagakure is one of the five great ninja villages, and it is not that easy to lurk to the front line without being noticed. This is not a bad start.
"Water Release: Exploding Waterspout!"
The thick chakra enveloped the ubiquitous water around him and set off a huge wave, sweeping towards the Sunagakure camp ahead.
Then, holding the chain sickle tightly, he drove the Sanshou Fish Ibushi towards the Sunagakure camp.
"Water Release·Thousands of Flood Dragons Explosive Bite!"
The twelve ninjas who followed closely behind him slowed down a bit, charging while jointly performing a large water escape ninjutsu.
The water on the ground quickly condensed again, and rapidly expanded under the amplitude of chakra, forming a water ball.
One after another, water dragons poked their heads out of the large water balls and headed towards the Sunagakure camp.
"Water Release·Exploding Water Wave!"
Taking advantage of the water vapor condensed around him by the large-scale Water Release Ninjutsu, Sanshouyu Hanzo once again performed a high-level Water Release Ninjutsu.
A huge wave then set off and crashed towards the Sunagakure camp, smashing the outer fortifications into rubble in one fell swoop.
The screams of Sunagakure stationed outside continued one after another.
Sanshouyu Hanzo also relaxed a little, no longer hesitated, and quickly used the Water Blink Technique, using the water everywhere to quickly kill the hurriedly assembled Sunagakure crowd.
"Kaimai·Qieyu!"
Sanshouyu Hanzo rarely used two weapons. He held the sword in his left hand and waved the chain sickle in his right hand. He jumped into the crowd and caused a bloody storm.
Wherever he went, heads were rolling, broken limbs and debris were flying everywhere, and bright red blood with poisonous black blood was splattered everywhere.
"Old man with a snorkel!"
In the middle of the Sunagakure camp, a shrill female voice shouted.
"The old widow playing with puppets!"
Sanshouyu Hanzo showed no sign of weakness, and also cursed Elder Chiyo, the senior leader of Sunagakure, who came in an aggressive manner.
Out of the corner of his eye, he and his rain ninja army successfully entered the Sunagakure camp and began to throw detonating charms around.
Suddenly, explosions were heard one after another at the front of the Sunagakure camp, and at the same time, the chaos tended to spread towards the middle of the camp.
"Sansho Fish·Poisonous Gas Spray!"
After teleporting away from a puppet controlled by Chiyo, Sanhoyu Hanzo teleported back to the back of the psychic beast Sanhoyu Ibushi, urging the psychic beast to spray poison gas with a slightly lower concentration again.
Although the concentration and lethality of the poisonous gas are slightly lower than those of the poisonous mist, it is released suddenly after the enemy formation, and both the killing efficiency and the diffusion speed are faster.
The rapidly spreading poisonous gas shroud directed towards the Sunagakure ninja troops gathered in the middle of the camp. Wherever the poisonous gas hit, Sunagakure foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, Elder Qiandai didn't care about leaving a trump card. He quickly took out a scroll and shook it open, summoning ten humanoid puppets covered in white.
Three puppets dressed in white soared into the air under her control, forming a triangular formation. They opened their abdominal organs to reveal the three sealing components of "Buddha", "Dharma" and "Monk".
"Chikamatsu Haku's Secret Technique·Three Treasures Absorbing Collapse!"
A tornado with unusually large suction force was instantly generated, quickly engulfing the poisonous gas surrounding it, and then the tornado sprayed the poisonous gas towards the rear of the rain ninja.
"Wind Release: Gale Wind Palm!"
The Sunagakure ninjas who took a breather, under the command of each jounin, jointly performed the wind release ninjutsu, blowing the remaining poisonous mist and gas back towards the rain ninja in one breath.
However, the Rain ninja who wore a respirator and took the antidote in advance did not have much reaction to the poisonous gas. However, the Sunagakure ninja who was still fighting with the large group of Rain ninjas at the front had inhaled a lot, and his steps could not help but stagger a little, and then he was The rain ninjas swarmed up and killed him with their swords.
Sanshouyu Hanzo, who was still fighting, also noticed the scene happening behind him, and he couldn't help but smile while slashing with his sword.
Elder Chiyo, who was chasing closely to stop Sanshouyu Hanzo from mowing the grass, also noticed it, and his nose was almost crooked with anger.
"Hanzo! Why are you running away!" Elder Chiyo shouted sternly, "You are also a well-known strong man in the ninja world, but you still don't dare to fight me?"
Sanshouyu Hanzo ignored the call from Elder Chiyo and just jumped into the crowd of Sunagakure ninjas to kill them wantonly.
If it were a previous match, he would have wanted to challenge the opponent's strong player so that he could suppress the opponent's morale by riding a horse to defeat him.
But at this time, he was attacking the enemy camp, and also had the entire Western Front Yu Nin's capital in custody. He could only try his best to disrupt the enemy camp, so that the Rain Ninja behind could take the opportunity to expand their results. As for the one-on-one challenge, I'm really not in the mood.
"Wind Escape·Empty Sand Barrier!"
Behind the Sunagakure camp, several Sunagakure jounin teamed up to perform ninjutsu in an attempt to encircle Sanho Hanzo's assault.
The unusually wet ground after the Water Release Ninjutsu attack rolled up curtains of wind and sand with difficulty, surrounding the elusive figure of Sansho Hanzo.
"Water Escape: Great Waterfall!"
Sanshouyu Hanzo did not stop and continued to slash at the crowd quickly. He just put away the tachi in his left hand and formed a seal with one hand to perform another water escape ninjutsu.
Huge water waves swept towards the direction of the sand hidden in front, and destroyed all the empty sand defense walls along the way.
"It's really... a terrifying water escape..."
Elder Ebizo, another senior member of Sunagakure who was responsible for commanding the Sunagakure ninja army to organize a counterattack from the rear, couldn't help but feel a little distracted when he saw this.
"Wind Escape·Vacuum Continuous Waves!"
The anxious elder Chiyo didn't care about controlling the puppet. He quickly formed a seal, puffed up his mouth, and sprayed dozens of rotating wind blades towards the back of Sansho Hanzo, who was charging and killing.
"The art of water teleportation!"
Although Sanshouyu Hanzo was charging ahead, he still noticed the movements of Elder Chiyo who was chasing after him.
When the wind blade struck, it quickly disappeared without a trace with a water teleportation technique.
The opposing Sunagakure ninjas quickly scattered to avoid the wind blade, but were still slightly injured by the wind blade.
Then, Sanshouyu Hanzo, who had just left in an instant, reappeared at the outer edge of the scattered Sunagakure formation.
"Draw your sword and kill!"
Sanshouyu Hanzo drew his sword with his left hand and quickly split the panicked Sunagakure ninja in front of him into two pieces.
Then he immediately turned around and killed the charging elder Qiandai.
"Chain sickle double strike!"
The sword in his right hand flew towards Elder Chiyo. Under the control of the iron chain, he slashed from bottom to top. The sword held in his left hand also followed the attack and slashed from top to bottom.
"Puppet Secret Technique·Mechanism Shield!"
Elder Chiyo did not panic, and quickly gathered the ten Chikamatsu people. At the same time, chakra was released, and together with the puppets, they formed a shield, blocking Sansho Hanzo's attack.
"Chikamatsu Haku's Secret Technique·Puppet Technique·Restraint!"
A blue-faced puppet stretched out two iron whips from the top of its head and continued to whip Sansho Hanzo. Sansho Hanzo resisted with the sword in his left hand and stepped back.
"Chikamatsu Haku's Secret Technique·Three Treasures Absorbing Collapse!"
The three puppets opened the mechanisms in their abdomens again, emitting a huge suction force. Sanshouyu Hanzo was caught off guard when he retreated, his body tilted and his steps stumbled uncontrollably.
"Puppet Technique Attack!"
Another puppet wielding a huge blade struck at Sansho Hanzo, who was straggling.
"The art of water teleportation!"
"Ninja Law·Sand Law Realm!"
Almost as soon as Sanshouyu Hanzo was about to escape using the teleportation technique, Elder Chiyo used the technique at the same time to raise a curtain wall of wind and sand to block him.
Sanshouyu Hanzo had no choice but to forcibly stop the teleportation technique, knelt down on one knee and raised his blade to block the puppet's sword.
"Qiang!"
"Old man with a snorkel! You're dead!"
Elder Chiyo, who successfully blocked Sansho Hanzo, had a cruel smile on his face.
Sanshouyu Hanzo still didn't panic, he threw off the chain with his right hand and pressed his palm on the ground.
"not good……"
Elder Qiandai suddenly felt something was wrong.
"Fire Release: Exploding Flame Array!"
Sanshouyu Hanzo's palm that was pressed to the ground quickly spread out a black curse seal, and then, paper strips composed of detonating talismans rose from the ground and rolled towards Elder Chiyo and the approaching Sunagakure ninjas.
"burst!"
Sanshouyu Hanzo thought silently in his heart.
"Boom boom boom boom boom!!!!"
The explosions of countless detonating symbols resounded across the sky.
The bright moon hanging high in the sky seemed to be unable to bear witnessing the bloody fighting in the world, so it summoned dark clouds and slightly obscured the moon's appearance.
Under the darker night, the fight between the rain ninja and Sunagakure was still bloody and endless.
"For Hanzo-sama!"
A young rain ninja whose left arm was cut in half by a wind blade, summoned the last chakra in his body and rushed towards the Sunagakure ninja with a ferocious face. Before he could get close, he was hit in the abdomen by another wind blade, and his intestines were mixed with blood. Huge wounds gushed out.
"For Yu Ren..."
The young rain ninja was still mumbling to himself, and used the last trace of chakra to activate the detonating charm tied to his body.
"Boom boom boom!!!!"
Sunagakure quickly ran away to avoid it, but the other rain ninjas seized the opportunity and quickly stepped forward to launch a detonating charm attack.
"Cough cough cough!"
As the smoke dissipated, Elder Chiyo gradually revealed her face under the protection of the blue chakra mechanism shield. Although Sanshouyu Hanzo's detonating flame formation failed, the huge explosion shock wave still caused her to suffer considerable internal injuries.
Looking up, Sanshouyu Hanzo had once again rushed into the crowd of Sunagakure, slashing and killing them with his sword as if they were in no man's land.
