Chapter 4: Ambush
"Earth Escape-Quicksand Technique" As the upper ninja of a sand ninja quickly sealed, Hippo Hanyu's face changed, and it was this technique again.
In this endless yellow sand, this quicksand technique is undoubtedly the easiest and most lethal to perform. As their team continued to deepen, Sand Shinobi had sensed their intentions and kept sending masters to ambush.
The frequent battles made the combat value of Hippo Hanyu soar, and the group of twelve people also lost two people because of the battle. This kind of terrain is hell for most Konoha ninjas. Because in that yellow sand, it is difficult to cast the water escape, and forcibly casting it will only waste an excessive amount of chakra, and the power is greatly reduced. The native sand ninja not only has a geographical advantage, but the ninjutsu used is also adapted to the desert.
Hippo Hanyu escaped from the quicksand range with a stand-in technique, spit out the dry sand in his mouth, and scolded in a low voice: "Damn, Lao Tzu hates to fight away." ”
He was fighting against a sand ninja, and on the other side, Qimu Shuomao had already summoned his own psychic beast, the Golden Wolf King, who was fighting fiercely, and he had no time to take care of his side.
As far as Hippo Hanyu knows, the psychic beasts of Qimu Shuomao are quite powerful, although he has not yet seen the psychic beasts of the three ninjas and the three generations, but he believes that they are at least the same level. However, the Golden Wolf King is as arrogant as Qimu Pu Mao, if it weren't for fighting with a psychic beast of comparable strength, it would definitely not make a move. Kiki himself prefers to use his white-glowing knife to cut the neck of his enemies and rely on his own strength to achieve victory, so Kiki Shuomao rarely summons the Golden Wolf King, and there are not many people in Konoha who know that he has powerful psychic beasts, and the Golden Wolf King is far less famous than the psychic beasts of the three ninjas. Being able to force Qimu Shuomao to summon the Golden Wolf King means that there is at least one sand ninja with a psychic beast among the enemies, and the opponent's psychic beast strength is not weak.
Mitarai Zixiao's opponents are also two not weak upper ninjas, with one against two, although at a disadvantage, but Mitarai Zixiao coped with it quite calmly, and the earth and thunder were used alternately, and the tactical use was very skillful.
As for Jiraiya and Orochimaru, they took the four of them to attack another important place in the Land of Wind.
Four to seven, Hagi Shuomao against two, the other Hyuga family of Shinobi against two, and the remaining one is their opponent (no way, no matter how you look at it, only he is the weakest, and he is despised by the enemy), and the situation is quite unfavorable for them.
"Wind Escape-Sand Dance" Sand Shinobi saw that the hippo Hanyu had escaped, and organized an attack again, and instantly hung a gust of wind, sweeping the yellow sand towards the hippo Hanyu.
Under the control of the chakra, the sand chased the running hippo Hanyu as if consciously, and from time to time a few grains of sand passed through his chakra shield, scraping his clothes and cheeks.
Hippo Hanyu wiped the blood droplets on his face, and his tempered temper swelled up with a killing intent in his heart, and a battle plan quickly took shape in his mind. As he ran, he made a mudra, "Illusion - the technique of thinking in the heart, the ninja method - multiple shadow clones, earth escape - " Using three techniques in a row, the amount of chakra in Hippo Hanyu's body is very large.
A smug smile appeared on Sand Shinobi's face, his opponent, that Konoha boy was already being knocked down by his ninjutsu, as long as he made up for the final blow, "Sand Shuriken." Exhausted, the hippo Hanyu was soon stabbed in the key by the sand shuriken.
He didn't realize that he was already in the middle of illusion, and he thought that the technique was to make him see the scene he wanted to see most at the moment by affecting the enemy's vision, so there was a scene where Hippo Hanyu died under his sand shuriken. As everyone knows, Hippo Hanyu himself has already hid more than ten meters below to recuperate, and his two shadow clones have set traps, waiting for him to be caught.
The sand shinobi walked towards the body of Hippo Hanyu to make a final confirmation, and after confirming that Hippo Hanyu was dead, his heart relaxed slightly, and a hand suddenly stretched out from the bottom of the sand, taking advantage of his momentary negligence, and grabbed his foot.
"Suicide Chopping," Hippo Hanyu's voice came from below, and Sand Shinobi's body was instantly pulled into the sand, leaving only his head exposed, and another Hippo Hanyu's doppelganger came out of the sand beside him, and the chakra knife in his hand waved, and Sand Shinobi's head had been cut off and rolled to the side.
"Close!" After waiting for a while, the real hippo Hanyu slowly rose from the sand, retracted the two shadow clones released, and looked at the headless corpse with a somewhat hideous expression.
"Ahh At this moment, a scream came, and it was the voice of the Hyuga Wind Demon who was traveling with him.
Hippo Hanyu fled again, his figure disappeared into the yellow sand, and the breath of the whole person disappeared completely.
"Being distracted during a battle is not like Konoha White Fang's style." A sand shinobi whose entire face was shrouded in a white mask said gloomily, and the attack in his hand became more violent. One of the two sand ninja is the main attacker, and the other is constantly causing all kinds of troubles to interfere with Hachiki Shuomao's attack.
Qimu Shuomao was a little worried after losing the breath of Hippo Hanyu, but he quickly recovered, and the murderous aura in his eyes became even more fierce, "Ninja - Yu Feng Liu." The white chakra knife mountain in his hand flashed with a trace of whiteness, and the sharp blade suddenly broke through the sand wall that bound him, and the next moment, Qimu Shuomao had already come to the side of the sand ninja who was responsible for covering the interference, only to see a flash of white light, and the smug shinobi who was still triumphant just now was cut in half.
Qimu Shuomao put away his knife, looked at the masked sand ninja for a long time, and said, "I didn't expect to meet you here, now that no one is interfering, let's stand up!" Desert Rats! ”
The Desert Rat is the existence of the Sand Ninja second only to the first generation of the Wind Shadow, and even the second generation of the Wind Shadow is not his opponent, the Desert Rat has a powerful summoning beast, which is the huge groundhog under his feet now, in this desert, there is no sharper summoning beast than the Sand Groundhog.
"Soon, I've been looking forward to it for a long time, Konoha White Fang!" The Desert Rat's voice was so low that he couldn't tell his age at all, and among the sand ninjas, he was one of the few people who could make White Fang and Sanshinobi even excited.
Chesswood and the Desert Rat stood at the heads of their respective psychic beasts, looking at each other intently, for both of them, the temptation was over, and the real battle was only now begining.
Five hundred meters away from the two, another battle was underway.
"Back to the sky," before the blood from the corner of the Hyuga Wind Demon's mouth could be wiped away, dozens of sand shuriken from the other party attacked him again, and he immediately used the Hyuga family's soft fist again to defend it. Hinata's soft fist is also quite good, and with the cooperation of the white eyes, the wind and sand can't interfere with his vision, so he can support him for so long surrounded by two upper ninjas.
Anyway, fighting with the Sand Ninja in the desert is not a good location, so after a long time, the Hyuga Wind Demon also fell into passivity, plus the continuous use of Huitian, which consumed a lot of his chakra, and the disadvantage was already very obvious, "Maybe this is where you are glorious." Hyuga thought to himself.
The two sand shinobi also saw that the Hyuga Wind Demon was fast to the limit, and the attack was even more ruthless.
However,
"Center Chop." Sneak attack, sneak attack again, Hippo Hanyu is worthy of crossing his background, and he is handy when he does a sneak attack. "Central Slash" is an evolution of the "Suicide Chop" that Hippo Hanyu just came up with, the shadow clone uses the earth to escape directly below the enemy, stabbing straight out with a knife, and the real body hides to the side, taking advantage of the enemy's movement to surprise attack.
"Yay! Stand-ins? Hanyu the hippopotamus who drilled out from below looked at the wood worn on the sword, a little disappointed, it seems that the opponent is not weak.
"Be careful." Hinata's warning voice was heard.
The sand shinobi who disappeared just now had already appeared beside Hippo Hanyu, and the Ruowu in his hand drew a straight line and shot towards Hippo Hanyu.
"Bang", the hippo Hanyu who was hit by the sand ninja turned into a wisp of green smoke, which was a doppelganger.
At the same time, Sand Shinobi felt a chill on his neck, and a handful of them were on his neck, and behind him was the hippo Hanyu.
To the surprise of Hippo Hanyu, Sand Shinobi didn't seem to care at all about being threatened, and suddenly condensed a sand blade and stabbed it towards his abdomen, piercing the two together like a rock sugar gourd.
"Ahh The Hinata Wind Demon and the other Sand Shinobi screamed at the same time, apparently surprised by the way they both died. Soon, though, both of them fell silent.
"Sand clone." Sand Ninja Road.
"Shadow clone." Hyuga Wind Demon Road.
It's not that they can see it, but that the sand ninja who committed suicide has turned into a pile of sand and melted into the ground, and Hanyu the hippo has become an immortal again and turned into a wisp of green smoke.
Quiet, very quiet. The four ninjas, the Hyuga Wind Demon and one Sand Shinobi in the Dark, while the Hippo Hanyu and another Sand Shinobi are in the dark, no one knows, they came out of there and attacked whom.
While the battle between Qimu Shuomao and the Desert Rats was in full swing, it was quiet.
"Wind Demon, are you alright?" Mitarai Zixiao's somewhat embarrassed figure walked over, it seemed that he had already dealt with his two opponents, and his appearance made the subtle balance of power here immediately broken.
With Zixiao's strong backup, the Hyuga Wind Demon, who had no worries, began to take the initiative to attack, and at the same time took the initiative to attack Sand Shinobi, after all, now the bright side is two to one, if you don't kill one as soon as possible, then you will only be besieged.
The tide of the battle has begun to turn, and the Hyuga Wind Demon, who has no other threat, begins to flutter, and the gossip sixty-four palms are used one after another, and the flow of the chakra of the opponent is silently sealed, and soon the sand shinobi died at the hands of the Hyuga Wind Demon.
"Where's Shota Yoshino?" Mitarai Zixiao asked.
"I'm here." Hanyu the hippo burrowed out of the sand and left behind the body of the sand ninja.
Mitarai saw that Hippo Hanyu had nothing to do, and couldn't help but praise it secretly.
"Where's Lord White Fang?" Hippo Hanyu asked, and then said that he already knew that Qimu Shuo was there.
"It's spectacular!" Hippo Hanyu sighed.
It was indeed spectacular, at a distance of 100 meters from them, a saloon more than ten meters long was flying, and on the opposite side of it, a white light was wrapped around a rather large purple thunder, and dry thunder from the sky could be faintly heard.
Then, the purple thunder pillar collided with the sand dragon, and there was a deafening explosion, and the scenery just now disappeared like a mirage, only the rising sand and dust were seen.
The tired figure of Qimu Shuomao walked out, saw the three of them, and asked, "It's all right!" ”
Mitarai nodded and said, "Who is it?" ”
"Looks like Sand Shinobi thinks highly of us! It was the Desert Rat who made him run away. "Hagi Sakumo was a little unhappy, and let the enemy run away from his men, this was the first time, and it was a shameful defeat for him.
"Don't be angry." Mitarai comforted, "I think in this desert, if the desert rat wants to run, no one should be able to stop him." ”
This is also something that can't be helped, Qimu Shuomao is now the leader, and he can't be too depressed: "Okay, Zixiao and the Wind Demon should be injured, let's rest on the spot, and then go to the next target." ”
