Chapter 156: Is This All You've Got? 【27】
A frown creased Rokusho's brow as he failed to comprehend Fengye's words. "What do you mean by 'preparation time'?"
Fengye dispersed the lightning that had gathered on the Kusanagi sword and gently sheathed it, his gaze calm as he looked at Rokusho and the others. "Of course, I'm giving you time to prepare to stop me. I'll resume my attack shortly."
This statement caused Rokusho and the others' pupils to constrict, and they felt a surge of emotions as if they had just heard a joke.
What was this?!
What did this statement mean? Giving them time to prepare to stop him... Had he gone insane? This was Sunagakure, one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages of the Ninja World, not some insignificant village like Amegakure!
Rokusho's expression shifted slightly, his thoughts racing as he spoke in a low voice, "You're trying to divert our attention. It's not just you; there must be others attacking from different directions. Which village is it?"
Rokusho could only think of one reason for Fengye's actions: to put pressure on them and keep them occupied here, allowing his allies to make a move elsewhere.
Could it be that they were targeting their jinchuriki?!
Caught off guard by this realization, Rokusho grit his teeth, unable to devise a countermeasure immediately. The Fengye before them was an immense threat!
Swish! Swish! Swish!!
A large number of ninja rushed towards them, and those closest were mostly jonin and special jonin. Everyone was either wielding a weapon or preparing hand seals.
Fengye glanced at the growing number of Sunagakure ninja gathering, then looked at Rokusho and said, "You seem to be thinking the worst of me, but it doesn't matter. I do want you all to gather here... So, are you ready?"
No one spoke.
The atmosphere froze, tense enough to suffocate.
Just then, a cold light flashed in Rokusho's eyes, and he made a decision. Even if others were attacking from different directions, they couldn't afford to split their forces. They needed to assemble a large force to crush Fengye here and then deal with the other threats!
"Attack!!" Rokusho's shout broke the frozen atmosphere.
As his shout rang out, countless ninja who had been preparing their hand seals unleashed their techniques simultaneously. Chaotic chakra surged and raged.
In an instant, Fengye's position was engulfed by countless Earth Release, Wind Release, and Fire Release techniques. The violent explosions sounded like countless cannons firing upon a single area, causing the earth to tremble.
"Did we hit him?" a nervous ninja asked amid the explosions.
"He's still there!" exclaimed a sensory ninja nearby, his eyes wide with shock as he focused all his efforts on sensing Fengye's location, not daring to relax for a moment.
"He can't move," Rokusho declared, spreading his arms and facing Fengye.
His actions were faster than any of the ninja present. He had already transported his gold sand from underground and wrapped it around Fengye's feet, immobilizing him! "Underestimating your opponent because of your Lightning Release speed will cost you. You're facing the Kazekage of Sunagakure!"
There was a sharp edge to Rokusho's voice. Becoming the Kazekage wasn't just about strategy; it also meant possessing formidable strength that surpassed countless ninja within the village.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
The relentless rumbling finally ceased.
The surrounding ninjas relaxed slightly, but they remained vigilant. After all, the opponent was the infamous Silver Flash, renowned throughout the ninja world. It seemed improbable that he could be defeated so easily.
Everyone stared at the center of the dust cloud, awaiting the outcome.
Suddenly, including Kazekage Rokusho, everyone's expressions froze as they witnessed a bolt of lightning appear amidst the dust, emitting a sizzling sound.
As the dust settled, Feng Ye stood there, bathed in a silvery light, his arms folded in front of him, seemingly unmoved and untouched.
But.
There wasn't a single scratch on his body, not even a tear in his clothes!
The Sand Ninjas, including Kazekage Rokusho, exchanged incredulous glances.
How could that attack have had absolutely no effect? It was impossible!!
"Impossible..."
"He didn't move at all! My sensory perception shows he remained in the same spot the entire time!"
A perceptive ninja exclaimed, his voice filled with shock and disbelief.
To everyone's astonishment, the sand binding Feng Ye's feet suddenly crumbled as if subjected to some mysterious force.
"How is this possible? My sand..."
Rokusho's pupils dilated as he witnessed the sand, usually as sturdy as steel and capable of withstanding even a ninja blade, disintegrate before his eyes.
Feng Ye, however, stood unmoved, and with minimal effort, caused the sand to fall apart as if his body possessed an innate power that countered magnetic escape techniques.
"Is that all you've got?"
Feng Ye slowly opened his eyes and spoke calmly, "It seems I overestimated your abilities."
He unfolded his arms and took a step forward, walking towards Rokusho at a leisurely pace, devoid of any extraordinary speed.
Rokusho's forehead glistened with a thin layer of sweat as he watched Feng Ye approach. Gritting his teeth, he waved his hands, causing a large amount of sand to converge and envelop Feng Ye, intending to trap him within.
But.
As the sand made contact with Feng Ye's body, it scattered in patches, as if his body emanated a power that countered their techniques.
"Wind Release: Hurricane Slash!"
The captain of the Sand Ninja Village's secret unit, standing beside Rokusho, shouted and performed a series of rapid hand seals. He pressed his hands onto the ground, and a net of wind blades descended towards Feng Ye.
However, to everyone's shock and disbelief, the wind blades, like Rokusho's sand, naturally scattered upon touching Feng Ye's body.
"How is this possible...?"
"What's going on with his body?!?"
The nearby Sand Ninjas stared, their eyes wide with astonishment.
The previous chaotic assault had been too dense for them to discern what had happened, but now they witnessed the wind blades encountering an invisible, resilient wall around Feng Ye's body, causing them to dissipate instantly!
Amidst the stunned silence, Feng Ye calmly continued walking towards Rokusho, his footsteps steady and unhurried.
He was testing the Sand Ninjas' capabilities against his newfound power.
A test of his domain's might.
