Chapter 280: The Restraint of Fire and Water
The cavern, which was originally quite spacious, instantly became much narrower when it could accommodate two Ground-Drilling Demon Worms at the same time.
Although Kakashi had returned all the ore collected by the villagers, namely the Driller eggs, the Driller Worm did not intend for Kakashi to leave free.
Two Driller Worms simultaneously stretched out the countless tentacles at the top of Kakashi from two directions, and the tentacles that attacked from all directions made Kakashi nowhere to escape.
Kakashi secretly said in his heart that it was not good, and his body was tightly wrapped around his tentacles.
However, just as the suction holes on the two tentacles pierced the surface of Kakashi's skin, ready to suck the bodily fluids in his body, Kakashi's body instantly erupted in a cloud of smoke.
A second later the smoke cleared, and the human being grabbed by countless tentacles turned into a rock.
This scene made the Drill Demon Worm stunned, he obviously grabbed the human body for the first time, why did he suddenly turn into stone?
Of course, the Ground Drilling Demon Worm didn't know that there was such an extraordinary existence as a ninja among humans, and it was impossible to know that there was something called a stand-in technique in ninjutsu.
Just now, as soon as his body was grabbed by the tentacles of the Drilling Demon Worm, Kakashi, who saw that he didn't have time to escape, immediately used the stand-in technique.
At this time, Kakashi's main body was on the rock behind the two Drill Worms.
"Hey!"
Kakashi, who had already disappeared from the perception range of the Driller Worm, took the initiative to shout, re-attracting the attention of the two Driller Worms.
Although it may seem silly to take the initiative to alarm the enemy in the shadows, Kakashi also has his own considerations.
Drillers do not have eyesight, they use a strange psychic ability to perceive their targets.
As long as the Ground Drill Worm spreads its tentacles like a horn in a certain direction, it will be able to perceive the spirit of the target regardless of distance and spatial barriers.
So although Sasuke and Talina have been running for a while now, as long as the Driller Worm stops and senses the spirit of the two, Sasuke and Talina still can't escape.
So Kakashi must now keep fighting the Driller Worm all the time, so that the Driller Worm can't stop and feel the spirit of Sasuke and Talina.
Of course, this state of affairs cannot be maintained forever.
By the time Sasuke and Talina had almost run out of the cave, Kakashi had the next step to implement.
It's just that Kakashi used the only stand-in technique just now.
Although the stand-in technique has strong attributes, it can be regarded as the most basic time and space ninjutsu, but the disadvantage is that it has a time interval that no one can avoid, that is, a cooldown time.
After all, if such a powerful technique can be used indefinitely, it will be a bit bt.
Kakashi must then entangle the two Driller Worms without being caught by the tentacles.
The speed at which the Driller Worm attacks with its tentacles is not slow, and the two Driller Worms have a total of hundreds of tentacles, coupled with the narrow terrain, it is not easy for even Kakashi to dodge.
"This should be the hardest C-class mission, right?"
Kakashi smiled bitterly and revealed the chakra under his mask, further improving his observation, and at the same time opened the first door of the Eight Doors Dunjia.
Immediately afterward, countless tentacles struck Kakashi in an overwhelming manner.
...
On the other side, Sasuke was running through the passage of the cave with Talina on his back.
Although Sasuke's physical strength as a ninja is more than enough to run on the back of an adult, Talina's height is much taller than Sasuke's, and Talina's body lying on Sasuke's back does not have a good focus point, so Sasuke can't run too fast.
Glancing at the sound of the Ground Demon Worm chasing after him, Sasuke immediately put Talina on the ground aside, and then unscrewed his own kettle.
Sasuke poured the water from the kettle on Talina's head, and the icy cold water instantly soaked Talina's hair and drenched Talina's head.
A magical scene happened, and Talina, who had only been able to move his eyeballs before, was able to move in an instant, and sat up as if he had woken up from a nightmare, frantically waving his arms and slapping the air around him, as if something nightmare was about to approach him.
"Ahh
"What kind of monster is that!"
"Worms! Big bugs! ”
Talina's receptivity was certainly not as good as that of a ninja, and until now, Talina's fright had not eased.
Sasuke grabbed Talina's wildly waving arms to ease Talina's momentum.
"That bug is called the Driller, and it's a creature that lives underground."
"It's too late to explain, let's run out first."
Sasuke explained simply, of course, these are also what Kakashi told Sasuke on the way here, including the fact that water can remove the mind control of the Driller Worm.
But just as Sasuke picked up Talina's body and was about to move on, a strange chant came from the rock wall behind him.
This chant was much weaker than the chant of the Drill Worm just now, but it was indeed a special sound that the Drill Worm made when it moved in the soil.
"You go first, I'll break off here."
"Ahh Oh. ”
Frightened, Talina fled in the direction of the cave entrance, while Sasuke waited quietly in place for the chanting to get closer.
As the rock wall was drilled through, several more Drill Demon Worms poured out of the hole in the rock wall like live maggots stuck together.
The thickest of these Drill Worms are as thick as an adult's waist, and the thinnest is like a child's arm.
The larvae of these burrowing worms are more morphologically earthworm-like than adults, with their tentacles swinging like a loach out of water.
However, despite their resemblance to loaches, these burrower insect larvae crawl on the ground much faster than earthworms, and even run at about the same speed as ordinary people.
These burrower larvae frantically flocked to Sasuke, and it was clear that these burrower larvae were using Sasuke as food for their parents.
Faced with these piles of maggot-like burrower insect larvae, Sasuke almost vomited his dinner.
However, Sasuke is a ninja after all, so he still forcibly stabilized his mind and didn't spit it out, and after taking two steps back, his hands were sealed, and a ninjutsu was used.
"Fire Escape: Hao Fireball Technique!"
Huge fireballs quickly gathered in front of Sasuke's mouth, and when they gathered to a certain extent, they flew towards the swarm of Driller Worm larvae at a uniform speed.
Rumble!
The narrow cavern made it impossible for these burrower larvae to avoid the deadly temperature, and the burst of flames produced by the fireball hit the middle of the larvae directly, devouring all the larvae in the firelight.
When the flames dissipated, all the Driller Worm larvae were more or less scorched, and the scattered flames were still burning on these larvae, and the Driller larvae in the center of the fireball were even burned to ashes.
Although the adults are not afraid of high temperatures, the larvae do not possess this trait.
After dealing with the larvae, Sasuke didn't stop and continued to run out of the cave.
...
And the two Driller Worms, who were still fighting Kakashi in the depths of the cavern, immediately sensed that the signals from the larvae they had worked so hard to raise were gone.
When communicating with your kindred, the Driller Worm can maintain its sensing state anytime and anywhere, and does not need to be sensed alone.
At this moment, the anger of losing the larval signal immediately ignited the anger of the two Driller Worms, and the attack on Kakashi instantly went crazy.
Among them, the larger Driller Worm straightened its upper body and crushed down towards Kakashi's position.
The other Driller Worm uses its tentacles to assist in its attack, grabbing Kakashi as he scurries through the air.
Knowing that he couldn't delay any longer, and that Sasuke and Talina should be on the verge of running out of the cave, Kakashi decided to move on to the next step.
Kakashi quickly jumped onto the boulder at the entrance of the cave, and the three hooks in the Sharingan Eye turned rapidly, and his hands quickly sealed at a speed that could barely see the phantom.
"Water escape, burst water and rush waves!"
A large amount of chakra gathered in Kakashi's throat and spewed enough water to form a small lake at the two Driller Worms beneath the boulder.
