Chapter 56 Pursuit
A fire of this magnitude cannot be extinguished with a simple water escape.
Watanabe Mousse used a basic water escape to get the three of them wet and force them through the circle of flames.
"They're out! But there's one person missing."
"I know, judging from Chakra's reaction, it's just a genin, but that guy's flying psychic beast is a problem. Go and try to deal with him alone. If it doesn't work, give up. He is not the mission target. As for the others Leave no one behind!"
"But Master Zuo Xun said before coming here that none of these Tang Yin can be let go, otherwise it may affect his position in Tang Yin..."
The leading Gen nin wore a wolf-shaped mask, and he sneered disdainfully when he heard this.
"Zuo Xun is a useless thing! A mere Tangyin Village has not been captured for Danzo-sama in several years. It is simply a waste!"
"I heard...those Yu ninjas are very united."
A root ninja whispered.
"Don't explain to him, Jiahe! In my eyes, Zuo Xun is a complete waste! If Tang Yin's leader Zhi Yujing hadn't been dying this time, he might not have found such an opportunity!"
"……Yes!"
……
"They are coming, Father!"
Looking back, Toneri Watanabe shouted nervously.
Under the light of the sky, the figures of the root ninjas wearing strange masks were extremely clear.
The three of them, led by Watanabe Mousse, quickly fled in the other direction of the riverside Pu convoy.
"Do you blame me? Sheren and...Tian Feng!"
Watanabe Tonero and Tian Feng, who were running wildly, were slightly startled when they heard this, and then they came to their senses.
The tension in Watanabe Toneri's heart suddenly disappeared.
He looked at Mousse Watanabe in front of him with a smile and said softly.
"How could it be! Father is a great ninja in my eyes!"
There was calmness on Tian Feng's honest face, and he understood Watanabe Mousse's move to kick Shangguan Mo out of the battle circle.
"I don't blame you, Captain Watanabe. That guy Shangguan Mo is indeed much better than the two of us. He can rely on psychic beasts and the most outstanding genius of Konoha's generation, Jonin Namikaze Minato, to reach that level. He will be Our Tang Yin’s hope for the future! It’s just..."
"Just what?"
Watanabe Mousse turned back and looked at this young man who had always seemed heartless.
"But, with Shangguan Mo's character, would he really run away alone?"
Tian Feng smiled slightly.
"Yes, Father, although Shangguan Mo doesn't talk much, I can feel that he is a ninja with love in his heart!"
Watanabe Toneri showed a look of affirmation on his face.
"He should understand that even with his psychic beast, there is nothing he can do in this situation..."
"But he has never been such a rational person, Father..."
……
"Art fire escape ho fireball!"
This root ninja formed seals with his hands, and the huge chakra in his body began to pour into his mouth crazily.
A huge red fireball roared towards the giant bird overhead, igniting all the branches along the way.
The smell of burnt air filled the air again.
Shangguan Mo, who was on Feng Ying's back, felt a high temperature rising from the ground.
Without his instructions, the wind eagle suddenly flapped its wings and disappeared into this space just as the fireball was about to hit it.
The root ninja was a little helpless. Facing the ninja who could fly, he had absolutely nothing to do.
"Xiao Feng, leave him alone! Fly over there!"
Shangguan Mo grabbed the unconvinced Feng Ying and pointed in the direction where Watanabe Mousse left.
"Chirp!"
……
"Captain! They are coming!"
Tian Feng shouted in a low voice.
With the two Chunins, Tianfeng and Toneri Watanabe, Watanabe Mousse's speed was inevitably slowed down by them.
In the woods behind them, the root ninjas were already within a range of more than twenty meters.
In this range, the power of ninjutsu can often be maximized.
"Fire Release·The Art of Dragon Fire!"
"Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!"
The eleven root ninjas formed seals one after another, and at this time they performed combined ninjutsu.
The wind took advantage of the fire, and at this moment, the forest was ignited with a huge fire.
The fire wave that shot up into the sky spread to a range of dozens of meters, rushing unstoppably towards Watanabe Mousse and the others who were jumping quickly among the trees in front of them.
This violent force of wind and fire completely tore the night into pieces and dyed the earth red.
The coolness of the night quickly subsided, and the temperature began to rise sharply. The sea of fire rolled behind them. Even before they got close, Watanabe Mousse and others felt as if their backs were being roasted on a fire rack, and their whole bodies were extremely hot. It seemed as if he was about to burn himself to death the next moment!
"Father! What should I do?"
Toneri Watanabe's expression changed and he shouted urgently.
He and Watanabe Mousse are both lightning escape ninjas, and Tian Feng is an earth escape ninja. Faced with a combination of ninjutsu on this scale, he simply doesn't know what to do.
Fire type is usually known for its large coverage area and strong lethality, and can only be extinguished by water type.
However, such a large-scale wind and fire combination escape technique cannot be extinguished by ordinary water escape. Its wide range and powerful power have exceeded the scope of A-level ninjutsu.
And this is one of the reasons why root ninjas are so scary.
They are as calm as a machine and cooperate with each other perfectly. The strength they can exert is beyond the imagination of ordinary ninjas.
Watanabe Mousse didn't need to look back to know that a ninjutsu of this magnitude was impossible to dodge.
He turned to look at Tian Feng.
Although Earth Escape can't restrain Fire Escape, that's all they can do now.
Tian Feng took a deep breath, nodded and began to form seals.
The chakra all over his body was mobilized by him through the seals, and gathered under him in an instant. This time, he completely output all the chakra he could release at once.
"Earth Escape·Earth Release Wall!"
boom!
The ground under Tian Feng's feet began to shake violently. The next moment, a brown earth wall ten meters high rose up, and smoke and dust instantly filled the air.
This kind of universal earth escape can change in strength according to the strength and amount of chakra of the user.
Bang!
The sound caused by the continuous explosion rang in my ears.
Watanabe Mousse and the others had stopped and felt their ears started to buzz. They couldn't help but cover their ears and look around.
Torrents of fire burst out from above and to the left and right sides of the earth flow wall, and a strong wind carrying a blazing temperature passed by them. While they were making a roaring sound, their body surface temperatures began to rise rapidly.
But at this time, few people had time to care about this.
Although this combined ninjutsu was temporarily blocked by Tian Feng's earth escape, it was foreseeable that the moment the power of the ninjutsu dissipated, that was the moment they were chased and besieged by root ninjas.
