Chapter 59: Feng Ye's Strength!
Chapter 59: Feng Ye's Strength!
"What is that...?"
The unusual shrill cry of the Chidori also attracted the attention of nearby ninjas. Many Iwagakure and Konohagakure ninjas turned their eyes towards Feng Ye, bathed in a silvery light, and the Ninja Sword Byakuya in his hand, entwined with arcs of lightning.
Almost all the ninjas present were elites, and at a glance, they could roughly discern that the technique Feng Ye had released, attached to the Ninja Sword Byakuya, incorporated both nature transformation and shape transformation.
An A-rank ninjutsu!
It was an A-rank raiton ninjutsu!
"Although his actions and experience are somewhat lacking, to have mastered an A-rank ninjutsu at such a young age, his talent is indeed unquestionable..."
These thoughts flashed through Ibiki Morino's mind, but the oppression in his heart remained unabated.
Feng Ye's strength was probably close to that of a jounin, and Might Dai was similar. He had indeed underestimated these two before, but the problem was that even with the addition of Feng Ye and Might Dai's combat power, the Iwagakure ninjas still outnumbered them by more than ten jounin!
With so many jounin, only a figure like the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, would be able to handle them single-handedly. The imbalance in power remained unresolved.
"You said you could handle this on your own?"
One of the closer Iwagakure jounin fixed his gaze on Feng Ye, holding a short sword horizontally in front of him, a cold smile on his face as he said, "Brat?"
Just an A-rank ninjutsu!
As a jounin himself, he also possessed ninjutsu of this caliber.
Listening to Feng Ye's tone, it was as if he believed he could handle the situation within this area alone. How arrogant for a mere brat.
"Feng Ye?"
Might Dai was also astonished.
His astonishment came from hearing Feng Ye telling him not to interfere with the Eight Inner Gates, and also from the silvery light that bathed Feng Ye, which felt similar to the Eight Inner Gates but was completely different in form, seemingly a different type of taijutsu altogether.
Feng Ye was indeed a genius to have developed such a technique, but could he really turn the tide of the battle with it? The enemy had more than ten additional jounin on their side.
However...
This train of thought lasted only a moment before it was replaced by shock.
The silvery light that bathed Feng Ye, who held the Ninja Sword Byakuya, suddenly vanished, moving at a speed that was impossible to track with the naked eye, instantly traversing the battlefield.
Whoosh!!
All the nearby ninjas could see was a silver flash as Feng Ye drew an arc in the air and appeared behind one of the Iwagakure jounin.
The jounin first wore a look of bewilderment, but then his eyes widened in terror and disbelief. He opened his mouth as if to say something, but only a mouthful of blood came out.
Stumbling forward two steps, he couldn't keep his balance and fell to the ground.
A deep wound could be seen on his back, severing his ribs and spine, ripping through his heart and lungs from behind!
Shock filled the air. The jounin who had mocked Feng Ye earlier now had his face frozen in a stiff expression, his pupils contracting violently as he looked at Feng Ye with a mix of horror and disbelief.
What speed was that?! As he stood there in shock, Feng Ye turned to look at him.
That gaze made the hairs on his body stand on end. It was as if he had been marked by some terrifying entity, and he, who had experienced countless life-and-death battles, felt the crisis of death!
Danger!
That brat was extremely dangerous!
Where would he come from next? Would he go around to the left? Or the right? Or would he appear from behind?
His vigilance was pushed to the limit, his nerves taut, not daring to relax for even a moment. Even his breathing almost stopped.
And in the next moment...
"...Thunder Flash."
Feng Ye uttered a single word.
In an instant, he disappeared, the silvery light flashing across the battlefield, appearing in front of the jounin. The Ninja Sword Byakuya in his hand slashed down.
Clang!
Just like Feng Ye's sword, his short sword was also infused with chakra flow, but in the instant it made contact with Byakuya, it was sliced through like rotten wood!
A crescent moon arc, intertwined with lightning, descended in an instant, cleaving the Jonin in two, along with the ground behind him, creating a deep gorge nearly ten meters long!
A fatal strike!
The Jonin didn't even have time to use a substitution technique!
Nearby ninjas, whether from Konoha or Iwagakure, witnessed this scene with looks of shock and disbelief.
Aside from the Uchiha clan Jonin with the three-tomoe Sharingan and Hyuga Sekka, who had activated her Byakugan, the others could barely follow Feng Ye's movements!
"Is that Cloud Hidden's lightning release secret technique?!"
"Too fast..."
Hyuga Sekka and the Uchiha clan Jonin were equally stunned, their advanced eye techniques barely able to capture Feng Ye's movements!
Whoosh!
Feng Ye's figure disappeared once more.
Only a silver flash could be seen crossing the battlefield, and wherever it passed, the elite Jonin of Iwagakure were cut down without even a chance to fight back.
In just a short moment, three Jonin and over ten Chunin from Iwagakure had fallen!
The battle situation immediately descended into chaos.
"Quick! Restrict that brat's movements!"
"Damn it! My ninjutsu can't keep up!"
The Iwagakure ninjas, who had been relying on their superior numbers, fell into disarray. Even those who hadn't been attacked by Feng Ye were frightened and divided their attention between him and their own battles.
But it was to no avail.
Even when fully focused, a Chunin would struggle to withstand a single strike from Feng Ye; the difference in speed and reaction was simply too great.
A Jonin might be able to dodge or block with the use of clone and substitution techniques, but a Chunin would have to predict and dodge the attack beforehand, as they wouldn't have time to use any ninjutsu as a reaction.
Whoosh!
Feng Ye struck again, taking down another Chunin.
"Earth Style: Earth Binding Technique!"
Just then, an angry voice rang out from the side.
As the voice fell, the ground beneath Feng Ye's feet suddenly rose, entangling his ankles and restraining him as he slashed down, killing the Chunin.
"Ninja Art: Secret Technique Barrier - Earth Prison Technique!"
After freezing Feng Ye with his earth style ninjutsu, Dongtu brought his hands together in a seal, channeled his chakra, and roared. The earth began to roll and heave violently.
He was an elite Jonin from Iwagakure, experienced in fighting against speed-type ninjas from Cloud Hidden!
Rumble!
The earth shattered into countless fragments, which rose up and enclosed Feng Ye in their center, trapping him within the barrier.
The power of the barrier suppressed Feng Ye's chakra, causing the silver light on his body to fade and the lightning arcs on his Ninja Sword Byakuya to dim and disappear.
"This is a barrier that blocks the flow of chakra. Inside it, you can't use your chakra normally... Did you think you could dance around freely with just your speed?"
"It ends here, brat!"
Dongtu slowly lowered his hands from the hand seals and glared at Feng Ye, trapped within the barrier.
Seeing this, the surrounding Iwagakure ninjas breathed a sigh of relief.
"Luckily, Dongtu is here..."
"I never expected Konoha to have a speed-type ninja comparable to Cloud Hidden's. It would've been troublesome if he was allowed to run rampant."
