Chapter 426: Battle of Sand Village (7)

Looking at Yagura who was galloping along the way with great momentum and using his chakra tail to "lightly" swat away the blocking Sand Village Anbu members like swatting flies, Karula's pupils couldn't help but shrink.

She knew that the Mizukage's assistant, who was the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, was very powerful, but she did not expect that these elite Anbu soldiers who were responsible for protecting her could not even delay Yagura's steps for a moment...!

Therefore, she gave up accumulating chakra and preparing to perform ninjutsu, and exploded directly.

"Sand Style: Sand Rain!!!"

Countless tiny grains of sand floating around Karula suddenly gathered together under the burst of her chakra, and instantly formed a large number of round sand bombs of almost the same size.

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

Then, accompanied by a sharp sound of breaking through the air, the sand bullet suddenly flew forward at an astonishing speed like a bullet with a ignited primer, like a high-speed machine gun, constantly spitting out deadly bullets, carrying powerful penetrating power and madly sweeping towards Yagura.

Looking at the sand bullets that were shooting at him, Yagura had no intention of dodging at all. Instead, he continued to accelerate towards Karula. At the same time, a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth covered by the dark red tailed beast's coat.

"It seems that the intelligence collected about the Sand Village is still not enough!"

Yagura exerted force on all four of his limbs at the same time, his body instantly flew into the air while his hands quickly formed seals. Immediately, a huge hand formed by the chakra of the tailed beast suddenly appeared behind him, dancing rhythmically in the air.

"Water Style: Water Mirror Technique!!!"

A huge dark red water mirror appeared in the air in the blink of an eye, and then a dark red figure that looked exactly like Karura emerged from it. Immediately following, it was the "Sand Rain" that was no different from the one Karura used!!!

"Boom!!!"

The sand bombs, which look exactly the same and have the same power, are like tiny meteors, constantly colliding in the air. Every violent collision will cause a deafening explosion, as if thunder has exploded in the sky.

The continuous sounds of collision were chaotically intertwined, and countless fine dust particles filled the air, like smoke, lingering and greatly affecting the vision of the two people.

However, this was not a problem for Yagura, who had off-field assistance. He still had a firm grasp on Karula's location. So, while continuing to charge, Yagura opened his mouth and spit out another small "Tailed Beast Ball" that was condensed in an instant, which went straight to Karula with a destructive and oppressive aura!

On the other hand, Karura felt something was wrong the moment Yagura replicated her "Sunashigure". However, all this happened in a flash. Even if she had realized something was wrong, it was too late for her to make hand seals or change her moves to make an effective response...!

In addition, her vision was blocked, and her perception ability, which was not very strong to begin with, was disturbed by the chaotic chakra fluctuations caused by the collision between the sand bullets. She had even less chance to make any response...!

Therefore, it was not until Yagura's Tailed Beast Ball, which was following closely behind her, was not far away from her that she suddenly realized...!

Although Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, has not gone berserk over the years, Karura is still a high-ranking member of the Sunagakure Clan. Even if she has not eaten pork, she has seen pigs run. Therefore, she is actually not unfamiliar with the Tailed Beast Ball.

So, feeling the fatal threat, Karura endured the dull pain in his meridians caused by the chakra bursting out again, and formed a defense before Yagura's Tailed Beast Ball exploded!

"Sand Release·Sand Desert Wave!!!"

A thick spherical sand wall quickly condensed and protected Garuru firmly inside it.

The next second, a loud "bang" exploded in front of Jialuo, blowing everything around it to pieces. The house where Jialuo was originally in was of course not spared either. It completely collapsed in less than one tenth of a second!

Although Yagura's "Tailed Beast Ball" was not charged at all and was a small-scale "Tailed Beast Ball" that was instantly fired, its power was slightly weaker than that of a regular "Tailed Beast Ball", but no matter how weak it was, it was not something that could be resisted by the defense formed in a hurry by Karura, a ninja whose strength was not even at the Kage level.

-----------------

(It has not been clarified whether Karura's sand manipulation jutsu is magnetic ninjutsu, but it is speculated that it is most likely just an ordinary sand manipulation jutsu created by the second generation Kazekage Shamon after studying the one-tailed Shukaku. Perhaps it can be called "sand ninjutsu"?)

(In episodes 626 and 629 of the original anime, there were two Sand Ninjas who used "Sand Release", namely the female candidate Sana and the male candidate Shishio.)
