Chapter 232 Confrontation
Chapter 232 Confrontation
"Anyone who stands in my way will die!"
Lightning was surging all over Ai's body, and he moved at an incredible speed. When he saw someone blocking his way, he didn't make any distinction and just punched him directly.
"Uchiha Style. Thousand Mountains Collapse"
Uchiha Izumi pulled out a long sword from behind her, gleaming with cold light, and slashed at Ai's iron fist. Normal ninja sword techniques emphasize sharpness and wounding, not to mention that Izumi is a woman and her physical strength is inferior to that of male ninjas.
But when she swung her sword, the blade was not sharp at all, but instead contained a force as powerful as the collapse of thousands of mountains.
when!
The iron fist meets the thousand mountains, shocking the moment.
Ai and Uchiha Izumi's attacks collided, and sound waves and turbulent air surged around them. The ninjas who were closer felt sharp pain in their ears, and strong gusts of wind pushed them outward.
When a master meets a stronger man, both sides understand each other clearly. Ai and Uchiha Izumi exchanged glances and their bodies flashed as they fought endlessly.
"Everyone, don't get close to them. Back out and continue using crossbow attacks to consume the Cloud Ninja's strength!"
The Raikage was temporarily entangled by Uchiha Izumi, and Hyuga Hiashi and Uchiha Gyo quickly called on their subordinates to retreat a little and continue the attack.
Under their command, the surrounding Snow Ninjas formed a large circle and stood in full defense. The crossbow squad composed of Hyuga clan members also continued to pour crossbow arrows. Ai took a moment to take a look and found that these crossbows had an extremely fast firing speed and could even use chakra to increase their power.
He knew that at this rate of shooting, the Cloud Ninjas would probably suffer heavy casualties. His eyes were bloodshot and the lightning chakra in his body surged even more violently.
"You dare, heavy flow violence!"
Ai concentrated his lightning chakra on his elbow and sacrificed himself to crash into Uchiha Izumi, trying to force the opponent back in one fell swoop and then attack the archery squad.
"I told you this road is blocked!"
"Uchiha Style. Hurricane Slash"
Quan showed no sign of weakness. The sword in her hand was suddenly wrapped with a mighty hurricane, which was both huge enough to sweep across the world and sharp enough to destroy everything.
Wind chakra and lightning chakra collided, a blinding white light flashing in the center of their battle, and the surrounding land was rippled by the wind and lightning chakra. The powerful impact recoiled, and both men took a few steps back.
"Thunder Release. Thunder Abuse Level"
Ai concentrated his lightning power in his hand and chopped it down towards Uchiha Izumi with his finger like a knife. The knife in his hand was as sharp as a divine weapon.
"Uchiha Style, Thousand Winds Pass"
At this moment, Quan has discovered that Ai's physical defense and strength are far superior to hers. She chooses to use the wind-style ninja sword technique taught by Lord Xueying to restrain the lightning-style body training technique.
I saw the wind raging on the spring knife, and the storm vortex was whirling around the blade, and there was a sharp wind blade faintly visible in the storm.
The hand knife and the steel knife collided, and the wind chakra peeled off the lightning chakra layer by layer, making a clanging sound of metal colliding.
The two fought blades and fists, each evenly matched, and could only retreat and stare at the other. After all, the Raikage Ai had specialized in the Lightning Release technique for many years, and his physique was extremely strong. Even after the battle, his aura remained steady. Uchiha Izumi, on the other hand, was in a more awkward position. She held the blade in her right hand, trembling behind her, and her heart was even more vigilant.
As expected of one of the Five Kage of the Ninja Realm, Konoha's Sarutobi is a far cry from him. The Uchiha Clan alone probably can't withstand him. Izumi gritted his teeth as he pondered, and the three magatama twirled in his blood-red eyes, quickly forming a strange windmill-like pattern.
Quan pointed his sword at the Raikage, his words firm.
“You are very strong, but Uchiha Izumi will never let down the guidance and care of Master Yukage.
Today, this road is open to all!"
"Are these eyes the legendary Mangekyō Sharingan? You are quite strong among female ninjas. For the sake of the Kumo Ninja, I will use all my strength from now on!"
Facing a strong man, Raikage Ai's expression became much more serious. He pulled off the cloak on his back and was about to attack.
"Lord Raikage, we're here!"
"Support Raikage-sama!"
The attack of the archery squad was eventually affected by Ai. Under the command of Ma Buyi and the others, the Cloud Ninjas rushed through round after round of arrow rain and came behind Ai to confront the Snow Ninjas.
At this time, Ai and Uchiha Izumi also stood in front of their own camp, guarding against each other.
Taking a closer look at his own team, Ai felt dizzy. About one-seventh of the Cloud Ninja had already left, and many of the remaining ones were injured. Remember, the ninjas he led were all elite Genin, including many elite Chunin and special Jonin. He had never expected so many casualties in such a short landing distance.
Even during the border battles with Konoha in recent years, we didn't suffer such heavy losses!
Ai had never expected the Hyuga clan to become so powerful after arriving in the Land of Snow. He had originally only wanted to obtain the Byakugan's detection ability, but now he was even more attracted to the Hyuga clan. It was a pity that the Snow Ninja Village actually had such a master. It seemed that achieving his goal this time would be difficult.
Even looking at the situation, the Hyuga clan has such a powerful weapon. As long as someone in front can delay them, they can unscrupulously focus their fire and hunt down their own masters. If they can't charge forward, it will be difficult for them to retreat safely!
"Lord Raikage, Mabui's incompetence has caused the team to suffer such heavy losses."
Mabui's serious expression concealed a hint of sadness and helplessness. Although it was the Raikage's decision to launch the battle and lead over a thousand ninjas to attack the Snow Country, in order to boost the morale of the Cloud Ninjas and to protect the dignity of the venerable, she decided to sacrifice herself and take the blame.
"No such thing!"
Ai stared straight ahead, his tone and actions were decisive.
He waved his hand and said, "You're not wrong, it's mine. You gave the advice, but I was the decision maker. I misjudged the strength of the Snow Ninja Village and was too arrogant and impulsive, which led to so much damage."
As Ai spoke, he clenched his fists, his aura grew stronger and stronger, and lightning arcs flashed around him, making it almost impossible to see his figure.
"Gentlemen, the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan observation is very powerful, and the Snow Shinobi Village has developed new means of attack. If we retreat now, we will undoubtedly let them slaughter us at will.
It was my mistake as the Raikage to bring you into this dangerous environment. This will be a tough battle, and all I can promise is that I will be at the forefront of the upcoming battle and will not stop until my death!
Everyone, are you willing to fight to the death with me?"
"Fight to the death, fight to the death!"
"kill!"
"I will follow Raikage-sama until death!"
"Attack! I'm going to capture these white-eyed people and pin them down!"
After Ai's declaration, the Cloud Ninjas, who had just been attacked by crossbows and had become somewhat depressed, suddenly changed their dejected demeanor. They howled at the Snow Ninjas, and their demeanor seemed as if they were the ones who had suffered the loss.
"kill!"
Seeing that the morale of the Cloud Ninja army was good, Ai gave a timely call and turned into a flash of lightning with blue lightning chakra and rushed towards Uchiha Izumi.
"kill!"
The Cloud Ninjas behind Ai immediately launched a charge, and the Snow Ninjas on the opposite side also launched an attack under the command of Quan and others. For a moment, the entire snowy ice field was filled with the sound of killing.
