The ninja, wearing goggles and a spiked punk leather jacket, grinned, "The 37th of Gold, 'Thunderous Sounder'!"
The duo, wearing scarred masks and with their hands modified into sharp claws, split a tree trunk and landed on the ground, "The 21st of Terror, 'Mad Mad'!"
"'Chaos Chaos'!"
With a "boom," rocks shattered, and a short, burly man with bulging muscles emerged, "The 40th of Steel, 'Muscular Masso'!"
Half a figure appeared in the shadow of the trees, "The 35th of Special Selection, 'Dark Dark'!"
A middle-aged man with a slicked-back hairstyle spun two pistols, a sinister smile on his face, "The Leisurely Barrett!"
The stones beneath his feet were pushed aside, revealing a thin ninja with a mouthful of white teeth, "The 3rd of Bloody Slaughter!"
An agile figure dropped from the bushes, "The 22nd of Resolve, 'Phantom Phantom'!"
Two tight-suited men, one black and one white, made their entrance with spinning jumps, "The 13th of Blooming, 'Melody Melody'!" "The Colorful Kara!"
An indifferent blonde ninja casually released a wave of cold air, "The 15th of Iron Plate, 'Frozen Freeze'!"
"The 5th of Possibility, 'Screaming Scream'!" a sinister voice rang out.
A polka-dotted masked swordsman with dozens of ninja blades at his waist and a warrior with a queue braid took up their stances, "The 27th of Comprehensive Strength, 'Sky Sky'!"
"The Rainbow Rainbow!"
A man with countless scars on his forehead crossed his arms, "The 1st of Stability, 'Balance'!"
Two more high-speed ninjas descended from the sky, "The 1st of Momentum, 'Moment'!"
"The Vibrating Hundred Steps"
Nineteen ninjas, in their unique entrance poses, successively reported their bizarre names, which sounded like randomly generated names from an online game, creating a very awkward scene.
Sonic: "..."
He stood outside the battle circle, his mouth twitching uncontrollably.
He had to admit, although these guys were quite strong, this scene of collectively announcing their names was simply too foolish.
"Ha... hahaha!" Wind of Cyclone and Flame burst into laughter, "Are you done? A bunch of clowns! Do you really think you can stop us?"
"You're asking for death!" The thoroughly enraged members of the Heavenly Ninja Party surged with killing intent, and dozens of figures attacked simultaneously.
"Good!" Flame laughed, and a scorching Flame erupted from the long blade in his hand, meeting the charging ninjas.
A chaotic battle instantly broke out.
Sonic watched with cold eyes, having to admit that these two guys were indeed very strong after Monsterification, but facing so many top-tier ninjas who worked together seamlessly, they were temporarily entangled and unable to escape.
"Tsk, how useless."
Sonic pouted, feeling a bit impatient.
Just then, Wind of Cyclone, who was under siege, suddenly shouted, "Lord Poqi! These trash are too noisy. From now on, it's all up to you!"
The leader of the attacking group, Fos, looked astonished, "You two useless good-for-nothings actually have a helper!?"
"Nonsense!" Wind of Cyclone spat, "Ninjas are those who use all means to kill their opponents! This is the strategy we planned in advance! Idiots!!"
"Lord Poqi, don't mind me, get rid of them!!"
Sonic was also startled and subconsciously looked up.
He saw the giant black dog, which had somehow already squatted in the clearing in the forest. It slowly opened its massive mouth, and its six crimson eyes indifferently looked down at the chaotic battlefield below.
A dazzling orange-red light rapidly condensed deep within its bottomless throat!
"Roar—!"
Scorching Heat Bullet!
Amidst a deafening roar, a thick orange-red energy cannon, comparable to a towering pillar, suddenly shot out from Lord Poqi's mouth!
Boom—!!!
Time, it seemed, was paused at this moment.
There were no screams, no wails.
That destructive energy cannon, with an irresistible force, instantly devoured everything in its path.
Forest, earth, wooden houses... all matter touched by the energy cannon was vaporized in an instant, leaving no ashes behind.
The energy cannon continued unabated, piercing through the entire forest, leaving a terrifying gully on the ground, dozens of meters wide, a kilometer long, and unfathomably deep.
At the edge of the gully, the soil and rocks had crystallized into a glassy state due to the extremely high temperature, still emitting wisps of smoke.
The entire world fell into a dead silence.
Sonic, who had luckily hide in the attack range, stared dumbfounded at the disaster-like scene before him, his mind a blank.
This... this is the destruction a dog can cause?
And it seemed like it had just casually spit.
What a joke!
"Cough... cough cough..."
The surviving Heavenly Ninja Party ninjas crawled out from their hiding places, all covered in dust and looking disheveled.
Although they had managed to avoid the direct hit of the Scorching Heat Bullet with Dragon-level speed, they had been severely shaken by the shockwave, and many immediately vomited three liters of blood, not much better than being instantly incapacitated!
How could they continue to fight?
It wasn't even a battle on the same dimension!
"I told you," the Monsterification Wind of Cyclone emerged from the smoke, a cruel smile on his face, "You are too weak."
Intimidated by the deterrent power of Lord Poqi, this canine, self-propelled nuclear weapon, the ninjas of the Heavenly Ninja Party looked at each other, their previous arrogance completely gone.
"Very good." Wind of Cyclone nodded in satisfaction, "It seems everyone has reached a consensus."
He turned around with Flame, and together they bowed deeply to the bored Lord Poqi behind them, their voices fawning.
"Thank you for your help, Lord Poqi! You are truly too powerful!"
"Yes, yes! Lord Poqi's magnificent bearing simply leaves us in awe!"
Lord Poqi tilted its massive head, not bothering with what they were saying, only sticking out its tongue, licking its nose, and barking a few times.
"Woof woof woof woof!" (Hurry up!)
Although Wind of Cyclone and Flame were not fluent in Lord Poqi's language, their many days of experience as bath attendants allowed them to somewhat understand the dog boss's meaning.
"Received, Lord Poqi!"
"Please bear with it a little longer, it will be over soon!"
Sonic: "..."
He watched this bizarre scene from the side, his mouth twitching incessantly.
These two guys were completely beyond saving.
However... he glanced at the bottomless gully, then at Lord Poqi, who was acting like a normal big dog, and for the first time, he had the most intuitive understanding of the "power" Han Sen had spoken of.
If even a pet was so terrifying, how unfathomable must that man's strength be?
Perhaps... following him was truly the right choice?
