Chapter 236: The Ruthless Daimoku!
Chapter 236: The Ruthless Daimoku!
Land of Hot Water!
It has now been transformed into the shape of the Cloud Shinobi Army.
About half a year ago, after Konoha abandoned the Land of Hot Water and retreated to the Land of Fire, both the Land of Hot Water and the Land of Moon were occupied by the Cloud Shinobi.
Although shinobi do not typically occupy territory, they do plunder.
The Cloud Shinobi, unlike Konoha, had not seen everything and thus had a strong desire to plunder.
Barbarians!
That was the evaluation given to the Cloud Shinobi by the shinobi world.
So, it's easy to imagine what happened to these two small countries.
Terrible!
Absolutely terrible!
Countless treasures were plundered, and civilians were massacred and killed.
The destruction caused by the Cloud Shinobi was not significant, but the nobles and bandits showed no mercy, causing destruction far more terrible than the shinobi army.
Thus, the two small countries are now in a state of chaos and turmoil.
It didn't take long for Tang Ping and his team to find the Stone Shinobi Army.
And the Cloud Shinobi, as the prey, were also on guard.
The direction in which the Stone Shinobi were advancing did not seem like they were there to help, but rather to cut off their retreat.
So, the Cloud Shinobi Army immediately retreated.
If they didn't retreat soon, they would be caught between Konoha in front and the Stone Shinobi behind, potentially leading to a complete annihilation.
However, Daimoku would not give the Cloud Shinobi the chance to retreat safely.
Various traps and ambushes continuously delayed the Cloud Shinobi Army, and the Stone Shinobi themselves sped up, ensuring they could cut off the Cloud Shinobi's retreat.
"Third Raikage, if this continues, the Stone Shinobi will block our retreat!"
Dai, worried, reported to the Third Raikage.
Hearing this, the Third Raikage looked at the demoralized Cloud Shinobi around him.
Originally, they were full of high morale, boasting about defeating Konoha, but in this long battle, they had lost that spirit.
After fighting for such a long time and suffering significant losses, it was no wonder their morale had fallen. The fact that they hadn't collapsed was due to the Third Raikage's high prestige.
Daimoku might have decided to strike at the Cloud Shinobi for this very reason.
Since they couldn't destroy Konoha this time, they would take the opportunity to weaken their biggest competitor.
"Ha ha ha!"
The Third Raikage suddenly laughed.
Cunning and decisive!
That was Daimoku's style.
It was precisely this style that had made the Cloud Shinobi and the Stone Shinobi under their leadership grow in strength very quickly, catching up to Konoha and far surpassing the Sand Shinobi and the Mist Shinobi.
Now, the opponent was giving them a lesson.
They had been working together to deal with Konoha, but once they realized their goal was unattainable, they immediately turned on the Cloud Shinobi. Indeed, they were quite decisive.
"Tai!"
The Third Raikage looked at his most trusted deputy and made a decision that went against the traditions.
"Now it's my turn to fulfill my duties as Raikage!"
The village had already suffered enough losses and couldn't afford any more. So, the task of intercepting the Stone Shinobi Army would be his alone.
But his words met with strong opposition from Dai.
"No, Third Raikage, I will lead the troops to intercept the Stone Shinobi. You absolutely cannot..."
"Dai, this is a Raikage order!"
The Third Raikage interrupted him, deciding to act decisively using his authority as Raikage.
"Tell A and B that the village is now in their hands. You must lead the troops back, and under no circumstances are you to come to my aid!"
Before setting out, the Third Raikage left these words.
He was afraid that the rescue mission might fall into an ambush, so he added this command.
This news quickly reached A, who was at the back of the formation.
"What did you say!"
A looked at the messenger shinobi, like a enraged tiger ready to pounce.
"Third Raikage has ordered you and B to lead the troops back to the village and under no circumstances to come to his aid!"
The messenger shinobi, though terrified, repeated the order.
Dai also understood that the Stone Shinobi might use the Third Raikage to ambush their reinforcements, so they truly could not go, especially with the enemy pursuing them from behind. Therefore, he issued the order without any reservations.
(End of Chapter)The sound of thunder echoed through the air as A kicked the ground, causing it to shatter.
At that moment, he was filled with rage, wanting to kill all the Rock Shinobi and Leaf Shinobi.
However, the responsibility on his shoulders prevented him from acting impulsively.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go!"
A led the Cloud Shinobi army in retreat.
On the other side, Tang Ping and Hyuga Aoi witnessed an incredible scene.
1 vs 10,000!
The Rock Shinobi had an army of 10,000, mostly consisting of low-ranking ninjas. However, the Third Raikage, A, was alone, but his aura was not inferior.
"Let's start, and I'll show you the power of the 'Strongest Ninjutsu' and the 'Strongest Spear'!"
Tang Ping muttered to himself, eager to see the legendary strength of the Third Raikage.
As the battle began, Tang Ping and Hyuga Aoi were shocked.
Countless attacks rained down on the Third Raikage, but his Lightning Release Chakra Mode armor remained unbroken.
Even with Onoki's presence, the Rock Shinobi couldn't land a hit on the Third Raikage.
The Dust Release technique had a significant drawback - its slow activation time.
This allowed the Third Raikage to move quickly and avoid the attacks.
The Third Raikage, however, was not having an easy time either.
The constant barrage of attacks forced him to maintain his Lightning Release Chakra Mode and move at high speed.
"Earth Release: Earth Flow River Wall!"
The Rock Shinobi shouted in unison.
Boom! Boom!
Massive stone walls, several meters thick and hundreds of meters long, rose from the ground, surrounding the Third Raikage.
This was to restrict his movement!
Without space to accelerate, it would be easier to attack him.
The Third Raikage had to keep moving and advancing.
Boom! Boom!
The stone walls, despite their massive size, were fragile against the Third Raikage's attacks.
"This..."
Hyuga Aoi was speechless, unable to comprehend the Third Raikage's monstrous strength.
Even Yamato, with his Wood Release technique, couldn't match the Third Raikage's power.
"Indeed, the Lightning Release Chakra Mode has infinite potential!"
Tang Ping's eyes gleamed with excitement.
He thought that if he could obtain a corpse and develop his own Fire Release Chakra Mode, he would be able to tap into its immense power.
However, the battle had reached a stalemate.
The Third Raikage fought like a war machine, showing no signs of fatigue.
The Rock Shinobi, on the other hand, rotated their troops, using their Earth Release technique to slowly push the Third Raikage back.
Onoki only occasionally intervened, mostly observing from the sidelines.
It was clear that they intended to exhaust the Third Raikage with sheer numbers.
Faced with this tactic, the Third Raikage's anger began to fade.
Finally, after three days and three nights of intense battle, the end was near.
