Chapter 755: Daimoku: Fainting in the Bathroom!
Chapter 755: Daimoku: Fainting in the Bathroom!
On the battlefield, a powerful explosion created a whirlwind, leaving many ninjas standing in shock as they witnessed the impact of the Tailed Beast Ball.
A colossal crater appeared in the middle of the Rock Ninja forces, its size was astonishing.
The Rock Ninjas in the area had no chance of survival, let alone leaving behind their corpses.
Area-of-Effect Bombardment!
The Tailed Beast Ball was an attack with an immense range. Even a Kage-level powerhouse would struggle to achieve such devastating damage in a short time.
It could be said that in a one-on-one battle, a Tailed Beast might not be much stronger than a Kage, but in terms of destructive power and lethality, it far surpassed a Kage and was by no means weaker than a Hyper Shadow.
If that were the only factor, the Tailed Beast would not be considered a strategic-level threat.
After all, in the Shinobi World, there were indeed some unique techniques capable of achieving similar effects.
For example, the 'Heavenly Wrath' technique of the Tsuchigumo clan.
Although the cost was extremely exaggerated, and the activation speed was frighteningly slow, its destructive power was indeed no less than that of the Tailed Beast Ball.
However, the strength of the Tailed Beast Ball lay in its 'conventional' attack capability.
For a Tailed Beast, it could be used 'continuously'!
Buzz!
The lavender light had barely faded before the Rock Ninjas could recover from their sacrifice, and it was already brewing again.
Although using it consecutively was a heavy burden for Old Purple, would Spring care?
She couldn't wait to see Old Purple dead.
After all, the Skyguard Tower didn't need the Tailed Beast, so Old Purple's fate was already sealed.
It's not that the Tailed Beast was useless.
This perpetual motion machine-like energy source piqued everyone's interest.
The problem was that too many in the Shinobi World had their eyes on the Tailed Beast.
Aside from the Six Paths in the Pure Land, the Byakugan Wolf and the Akatsuki were also keeping a close eye on it. Keeping the Tailed Beast in their possession would only invite trouble.
So, killing it was the simplest solution, and it would also delay the Ten-Tails' appearance.
In the sky!
Daimoku witnessed the Four-Tailed Sun Wukong gathering another Tailed Beast Ball and couldn't wait to issue orders to the Rock Ninjas.
"Stop the Four-Tailed Beast at all costs, no matter what means necessary!"
His words were also a hint to the Rock Ninjas.
They didn't need to worry about Old Purple.
It wasn't that Daimoku wanted to do something underhanded; it was because Old Purple was already under control, and every Tailed Beast Ball could cause massive casualties to their own forces. Even if it were Old Purple, he wouldn't hesitate to give this order, even if it were Yellow Earth.
As the Tsuchikage, Daimoku had great resolve and wouldn't hesitate.
"Kill!"
"We must stop the Four-Tailed Beast at all costs!"
"For the village!"
The Explosive Team, upon witnessing the power of the Four-Tailed Beast's Tailed Beast Ball, charged forward with bloodshot eyes.
Not far away, Spring stood atop the Four-Tailed Beast's head, holding a long sword. Her shoulder-length hair danced gracefully in the wind, complementing her pure and beautiful face and tear-shaped birthmark, creating a picture of exquisite beauty.
She watched as the Explosive Team rushed towards her, signaling her subordinates to step aside.
These doomed individuals didn't warrant sacrificing their own lives.
Whoosh!
As Spring leaped forward, her left eye's Mangekyou Sharingan activated, doubling her speed.
Spring's speed was already astonishing, and now it had doubled, making her movements nearly invisible to the naked eye, leaving only a fleeting afterimage.
Perhaps this was why she was known as 'Moon Shadow Spring'.
Without the Skyguard Tower forces desperately intercepting her, the Explosive Team's advance accelerated, and they soon clashed head-on with Spring.
"Die!"
The captain of the Explosive Team, the Elite Jonin Nobushi, unleashed a Landmine Fist.
He possessed the Bloodline Limit of Explosion Style, so even as an Elite Jonin, his destructive power was no less than that of a Kage.
Upon landing a punch on his target, the Explosion Style would be triggered, instantly shattering the opponent.
It was this Bloodline Limit that allowed Nobushi to lead the Explosive Team, the Rock Hidden Village's ace squad.
Seeing his punch connect with the target, Nobushi's lips curled into a sinister smile.
He could already envision the scene of his opponent being blown to pieces.
"Huh?"
His fist passed right through the target's body.
Whoosh! A silver flash appeared, and Nobushi felt his vision rising, finally seeing a headless corpse fall below.
Yes, she had drawn her sword and finished him in an instant; there was nothing more to say.
Spring continued her charge, not bothering to look back at her handiwork.
Simultaneously, her figure multiplied.
Shadow Clone Technique!
This was also the famous ninjutsu of Shizui.
The ability to earn a title in battle was entirely due to this technique.
Spring's foundation and illusion skills were all superior to Shizui's, so this technique in her hands could be described as 'surpassing the master'.
With the Mangekyo Sharingan activated, Izumi's speed now rivaled the Golden Flash in short distances, matching the speed of spatial jumps.
In the blink of an eye, her dark shadow would pass by, leaving enemies no time to react before they fell.
Moon Shadow Spring!
This title was earned through Izumi's sword skills, with no exaggeration.
However, previously, she didn't even need the Mangekyo; her passive speed boost and illusion techniques were enough to fight. Now, with the Mangekyo unleashed, she effortlessly mowed down her opponents.
After unleashing her full power, even alone, she single-handedly halted the Explosive Team.
Meanwhile, behind her, the Tailed Beast-transformed Old Purple launched a second Tailed Beast Ball.
Whoosh! A black-purple Tailed Beast Ball traced an arc in the sky before plummeting.
Boom!!
An immense explosion and fiery blast soared into the sky.
However, with the knowledge that the Tailed Beast had fallen into the hands of the Skyguard Tower forces, the left flank of the Allied Forces had no choice but to disperse and retreat.
They all scattered and withdrew, making this Tailed Beast Ball's impact, despite its undiminished power, far less devastating than the previous one.
Several Tailed Beast Balls fell in quick succession, forcing the Skyguard Tower's pursuit forces to detour around the impact zones to avoid getting caught in the crossfire.
Each Tailed Beast Ball had a blast radius measured in kilometers—a true area-of-effect bombardment.
Suddenly, Izumi, who had just finished off the last member of the Explosive Team with her sword, turned her head towards the sky.
A small figure appeared abruptly, as if the camouflage had been lifted.
It was Daimoku!
It was unclear how he managed it, but he had shaken off Yamazaka Houshi and arrived at Izumi's side.
Slap! Daimoku clapped his hands together.
A semi-transparent light glowed in his palms.
"Dust Style: Limit Stripping Technique!"
Whoosh! A blinding white pillar of light descended from the sky, instantly targeting the Four-Tailed Sun Wukong, behind Izumi.
How ruthless! Daimoku knew that the Dust Style would never hit Izumi, so he aimed for the Four-Tailed Sun Wukong, whose eyes had transformed into the intricate flower petal pattern of the Mangekyo Sharingan.
'I'm sorry, but as the Tsuchikage, I must do this!'
With this thought in mind, Daimoku turned and fled.
The enraged Yamazaka Houshi was already upon him, and if he didn't escape now, he wouldn't get another chance.
Where the Four-Tailed Sun Wukong had stood, there was now only a smooth, deep crater.
Dust Style!
Indeed, the Bloodline Limit's attack power was truly formidable.
Izumi, however, didn't get angry.
This was her goal.
If she had taken action herself, who knew how much ocular power and chakra she would have had to expend to defeat a Tailed Beast. Now, she had saved herself the trouble.
Calculating the losses...
The casualties from the Tailed Beast Balls, the Explosive Team, and the loss of the Jinchuriki, Old Purple, were enough to make Daimoku faint in the toilet.
Indeed, the fleeing Daimoku might not have been able to endure if he hadn't known that the Rock Hidden Village still needed him.
This loss was devastating.
From the start of the Fire Extinguishing Plan to the present, in just a few short months, they had lost their only two Jinchuriki and thousands of Rock Ninja, including the elite Explosive Team.
If there was a chance to undo this, he would take it without hesitation.
"Everyone, retreat at maximum speed!"
Daimoku issued the order with a cold face.
This meant abandoning the burdensome supplies and logistics.
Compared to the collapse of the left flank, the Cloud Ninja forces on the right were faring much better.
It wasn't that Uchiha Sho and Uchiha Shizuka lacked strength; it was because the enemy had played their trump card.
Chakra Cannon! Although its power was far inferior to the Tailed Beast Ball, its attack range was immense.
Caught off guard, the enemy used the cannon's long-range firepower to cut off the Skyguard Tower's counter-attack.
However, the aerial forces suffered heavy losses under the sudden assault of the Sunlight Tower.
Sunlight Tower! It had just been inactive before.
Now activated, it actively attacked targets.
Lasers! It fired lasers at flying targets in the sky.
Although the laser's power wasn't too great, it was deadly enough for the flying forces.
With these Sunlight Towers, the Skyguard Tower's airspace within a few hundred kilometers became a no-fly zone.
Of course, if the airships or flying forces could rise to several kilometers in altitude, the Sunlight Towers couldn't reach that far.
But was that possible?
So, the sky became an instant no-fly zone.
As a result, the Allied Forces' Fire Extinguishing Plan was completely thwarted, and the Fourth Great Ninja War temporarily cooled down.
