The huge air wave generated by the explosion violently vented to the surroundings like a torrent that broke a bank, and the green on the ground was quickly swallowed up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Almost every moment, every breath, large tracts of woods completely disappeared, turning into ravines and messy ruins.
The smoke and dust generated by the explosion covered the sky and covered the giant clay bird in the sky.
call! !
A giant white bird emerged from the smoke, and two figures on its back were also revealed.
A boy of about ten years old maintained the gesture of one-hand mudra. His left eye was covered by dark blond hair. His hair fell naturally behind him, and the short braids at the ends of his hair were flying gently.
Next to him was the four-tailed Jinchuuriki Lao Murasaki wearing purple clothes and a breastplate, with his hair tied into a small bundle like a ponytail at the back and a big beard.
Both of them looked a little embarrassed at this time.
"Ahem!"
The disgraced Lao Zi coughed violently and complained feebly: "You brat, is this your latest ninjutsu?"
Deidara looked at the explosion below and said with a satisfied smile: "Uncle Bearded, how are you? Are you shocked by my art?"
"You're a rude brat who gives people nicknames without permission!"
Lao Zi had a black line on his head and said speechlessly: "The explosion is so powerful, why can't it fly higher?"
Deidara scratched the back of his head and said: "Well, maybe I was too excited just now and didn't pay attention to the amount of chakra injected?"
This was the C3 No. 18 that he had just developed not long ago. The doll-shaped detonating clay was mixed with a higher concentration of explosive chakra, and its explosion was large enough to blow up a village.
Among his current ninjutsu, it can be regarded as one of the strongest.
The expression on Lao Zi's face froze, and he immediately turned his head and looked at Deidara in disbelief: "You just detonated it without even being sure of the power of the explosion?"
Deidara smiled and said nonchalantly: "Aren't we okay?"
Lao Zi stared at Deidara blankly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
This kid's ability to get into trouble is completely proportional to his talent.
When he thought of that old stubborn Onoki wiping this kid's butt every day, he actually felt a little sympathy for that old stubborn who didn't agree with his ideas.
Deidara stared at the smoke and dust at the center of the explosion that had not yet dissipated, and said in a confused tone: "Is this the end? Hmm."
Hearing this, Lao Zi also looked towards the center of the explosion.
This time they followed the mining team and were able to sneak out of the village.
I originally wanted to take this opportunity to sneak out, but I didn't expect to see the mining team being attacked.
Lao Zi just doesn't get along with Onoki, but he still has feelings for Iwagakure.
Since they were from the same village, with the idea of helping if he could, he just asked Deidara to take a tentative shot.
He also wanted to know if the other party died under Deidara's attack.
"Hey, something came out?"
I saw that the smoke and sparks in the sky gradually dispersed.
In this burst of smoke, a looming huge figure gently flapped its palms.
call! !
A huge gust of wind also blew up, scattering the dust and sparks wrapped around his body, revealing his complete form.
It was a green half-length giant radiating green light and wearing armor.
Although the layers of armor on the giant's body have been damaged, Shisui standing among them is still intact, and even his panting and weak posture is not revealed.
At this moment, the sound of breaking through the sky sounded.
Shisui suddenly raised his head and looked above his head with a solemn expression. The Mangekyo Sharingan flashed with a coquettish scarlet light.
It was a ball of white, soft, slightly human-like clay, falling in his direction at a very fast speed.
Poof!
Shisui waved the spiral knight sword in his hand and cut the doll clones made of white clay into two halves.
But the clay doll that had been split in half once again revealed more white clay, and its body squirmed into double the number of clay clones, rushing towards Shisui from the front, back, left, and right.
Shisui was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and then showed a distressed expression.
"...An explosive ninjutsu that invalidates physical attacks and splits through physical attacks?"
Is it Blood Succession Limit, Explosive Escape, or some other secret technique?
It looks like a compound ninjutsu that combines explosive escape with some secret technique.
Several white clay dolls also began to expand as they approached Shisui, and extremely unstable chakra fluctuations emanated from the clay dolls.
"Art is an explosion! Drink!!"
As a low shout came from the air, the half-length giant also received the explosive attacks of all the clay dolls head-on.
But when the smoke gradually dissipated, they saw that the giant's armor was only slightly broken on the surface.
"It's really amazing. He blocked my attack easily."
Deidara stood on the giant bird and laughed wildly: "Haha, this must be a test of my art! Hmm."
Lao Zi on the side was different from the young and energetic Deidara.
He stared solemnly at the half-length giant below, feeling as if he had gotten into big trouble for no reason.
Although he didn't like Deidara's noisy explosion art, he still quite recognized the power of Deidara's Explosion Ninjutsu.
Even if he is a four-tailed Jinchuuriki, it will be difficult for him to survive the attack of C3·18 without using the complete tailed beast transformation.
However, due to personality reasons, he did not understand each other with the four-tailed Sun Wukong, and naturally he was unable to maintain self-awareness while fully transforming into a tailed beast.
But that's it.
In Lao Zi's peripheral vision.
The chest of the green half-length giant opened wide, and the surrounding air was distorted, and chakra flashing with green light quickly gathered.
Three huge green magatama formed a complete whole surrounding the blazing white ball of light.
This chakra made the air vibrate.
Shisui's eyes flashed with blood-red light, shooting straight towards Deidara and Lao Zi.
Lao Zi's heart couldn't help but tremble, and he felt a terrible sense of death.
If he were hit by that thing, he would definitely be shattered to pieces.
"Deidara!!"
Deidara also felt the chakra fluctuations, his eyes widened in disbelief, and his breathing became more rapid.
There was also excitement and excitement on his face that could not be concealed.
There was even a hint of madness and ferocious color in his eyes.
"Art! This must be art!!"
"Uncle Beard, don't take action! This is the time to compete in art! Hmm!!"
As he spoke, Deidara took out two small roly-poly shaped clay dolls from his arms.
Hold them on the left and right hands respectively.
The chakra in his body began to decrease rapidly, and his face appeared weak and pale.
"How can you choose to retreat from such a beautiful, artistic, and dazzling scene?!"
Deidara yelled wildly and immediately threw the two clay dolls in his hands.
Bang~
The two clay dolls expanded to the size of a house and suddenly fell down.
At the same time, the three green magatama in front of the half-length giant's chest also spun and flew towards the two of them like arrows from the string.
"Yasaka no Magatama!!"
Buzz! ! !
The three connected magatamas rotate faster and faster until they form a green aperture that is indistinguishable from each other.
Two giant clay dolls also crashed into Magatama like meteorites falling from the sky.
"Let you see my art! Drink!!"
In an instant, a sound that shook the world exploded in the sky above the head with an even louder sound than before.
boom! ! !
Along with an explosion, endless explosions of fire swallowed up the world, carrying an extremely rich impact storm and attacking in all directions.
At the core of the explosion, high-temperature airflow frequently exploded and vented. The terrifying energy was like a perpetual motion machine, spreading endlessly to the surroundings, and the air, light and shadow were all twisted into a ball.
………………
In the Kingdom of Kawawa, a carriage was driving on the road.
At this moment, the ground suddenly began to tremble violently, and the surrounding trees swayed to a degree visible to the naked eye.
"Huh? What happened?"
The old man in the carriage stuck his head out and looked at Kakashi blankly: "Is there an earthquake?"
Yamato and Kakashi outside the carriage looked at the direction where the tremor came from, their hearts filled with doubts and solemnity.
The direction from which the tremor came was the border of Kawa no Kuni, and the smoke and dust from the explosion could be seen even from thousands of meters away.
After a while, the sudden violent tremor gradually slowed down.
"...It should be an earthquake."
Yamato hesitated for a moment, then said in a loud voice: "Such a movement is not something a ninja can make."
But, the words just fell.
Swish, brush, brush!
Three figures wearing strange armor suddenly appeared in front of the carriage.
"Who are these people?"
Kakashi frowned and glanced at the old man behind him.
Seeing that he only looked worried, but not surprised at all, a flash of understanding flashed in Kakashi's eyes.
It seems that they are the blockers of this mission?
However, there is something strange about these three women wearing strange armor. Chakra fluctuations are emanating from the armor on their bodies.
"Yamato, go take a look."
"Yes." Yamato nodded and stepped forward without hesitation.
"Old man, do you need to explain now?" Kakashi turned to look at the old man and said meaningfully, "Otherwise, I cannot guarantee your safety."
"I have no way."
The old man was silent for a moment, then said bitterly: "This secret is like a heavy shackles on my body, I..."
Just didn't wait for him to finish.
"That's true."
Kakashi nodded without hesitation and interrupted directly: "Civilians have civilian difficulties, and ninjas have ninja dangers. I can understand you."
Upon hearing these strange words, the corners of the old man's mouth suddenly twitched.
He is really a guy who has no sympathy and doesn't know how to respect the old and care for the young.
However, seeing Kakashi's appearance of cutting meat, the old man could only sigh deeply and said: "I said before, we once had a brilliant civilization, all because of a species called Grell The ore of the stone.”
"That is a precious ore from our continent. Only the blood of the royal family can open the device and collect the ore. Others cannot use it..."
Having said this, the old man paused and glanced at Kakashi from the corner of his eye.
"Also, who are those guys?"
Seeing that he nodded perfunctorily and asked, the old man could only point to the three figures fighting with Yamato, and continued to add: "The glorious civilization of our ancestors collapsed, and they divided into two factions."
"The powerful and armed royal family crossed the sea and came here to thrive two hundred years ago. They took away the Greel Stone and the Greel Book that were finally mined, and these blockers..."
"It should be related to those ancient royal families who fled. If nothing else, the Book of Grayl is probably in their hands."
Kakashi asked: "Then which faction are you?"
"The ancestral land has a shortage of materials and constant natural disasters. We are the remnants who migrated to this continent thirty years ago."
Oh, it turned out to be a commoner abandoned by the royal family.
Kakashi immediately understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's intention for this S-class mission.
In addition to escorting the old man to the target location, he also needs to bring the "Grael Stone" back.
Resources are a top priority at all times, and wars caused by resources have almost run through the entire history of the ninja world.
If that ore really has as much energy as the old man said, it would definitely be a priceless treasure.
The rise and fall of ancient empires are closely related to this Greel Stone, which can be used for construction or destruction.
However, Kakashi naturally didn't believe in what kind of royal bloodline could be opened.
It's just a reason that the old man made up temporarily because he didn't want his ancestors' resources to be coveted by big countries.
Kakashi pointed to the three people wearing armor in the distance: "Is the armor on their bodies and the energy source they use the Gray Stone you call?"
At this time, the three people were unable to fight back under Yamato's Wood Release Ninjutsu, and they had been forced into weird animal forms.
The old man hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "It should be."
"That's it."
A flash of thought flashed in Kakashi's dead fish eyes.
He quickly came back to his senses and looked at the four people still fighting in front of him.
"Yamato, let's solve this quickly."
The old man next to him couldn't help but be startled when he heard this.
Then, I saw the Konoha ninja who was still a little reluctant to deal with the three of them just now, and he eliminated the three blockers in three strokes.
Finally, he carried three women who were only breathing and returned to the carriage.
"you……"
Seeing this, the old man came back to his senses, and his face turned red with anger.
Only then did he realize that he had been deceived by the dead fish eyes and the dead face in front of him.
"Sorry, sorry, maybe Yamato just didn't wake up, and he didn't wake up until I called him."
Kakashi laughed and quickly changed the subject: "Let's take you to the mission destination now and make sure we get you there safely."
After all, it doesn’t matter how the old man reacts.
Kakashi whipped the horse's butt hard and ran at full speed towards the canyon area of Kawa no Kuni.
If nothing unexpected happens.
This mission should have been leaked.
The explosion just now was probably caused by the war between one force and another.
but……
"Isn't this going too far?"
Feeling the continuous roar and explosion impact in the distance, Kakashi on the carriage couldn't help but make a tsk sound like a toothache.
I thought it was a natural disaster, but I didn't expect it to be a man-made disaster comparable to a natural disaster.
Under this destructive power, even if you are just watching the battle from a distance, you will feel your body and heart trembling.
Even by ninja standards, it's not a small fight.
Fortunately, a battle of this scale did not take place in the residence of Kawa no Kuni.
Otherwise, not only the land will be destroyed, but countless innocent people may be affected, resulting in countless innocent and tragic deaths in the battle.
Thinking of this, Kakashi's heart sank.
"Perhaps, using the forbidden technique we just developed, we can barely achieve that level."
Sure enough, it's best to go around and avoid running into these guys.
About a quarter of an hour later, we walked almost a few kilometers into the territory of Kawa no Kuni.
The carriage was stopped again.
But this time it was not a living person, but a mountain of corpses.
Kakashi jumped out of the car, squatted next to the body, checked it, and said solemnly: "The body's body temperature is already close to the ambient temperature, and it has been dead for at least five hours."
Yamato looked around and added: "There are traces of ninja tools and ninjutsu around. The battlefield should be here."
Sure enough, there is still no way around it...
