After Naruto finished speaking, he joined the fray, unwilling to be outdone!
The three figures fought together!
With Naruto joining, the situation... didn't change much.
His attack methods weren't weak.
But in the high-speed battle, the role he could play wasn't significant, and because Sasuke's ninja tool manipulation was unpredictable and treacherous.
His reaction in battle couldn't quite keep up.
Sasuke also had to be careful not to accidentally injure his teammate.
"Idiot Naruto! What are you messing around for!"
Naruto struggled to hold on, still stubborn: "Shut up! Smug guy! I'm here to help you!"
Sasuke was exasperated.
He had to concentrate more, manipulating the ninja tools in his hands to surround the enemy from all sides.
Sasuke: "Be careful! Finish him off quickly! Then go help Kakashi Sensei!"
Naruto: "Don't worry! Watch me!"
In the battle circle, Haku sneered: "Overestimating yourselves."
"Do you two really think victory is in your grasp?"
Senbon shot out rapidly!
In the gap of Sasuke's ninja tool flight, his figure dangerously broke away.
Chakra began to surge.
On the mist-shrouded bridge, the temperature dropped steeply.
A chill made goosebumps rise on Sasuke and Naruto.
"Secret Jutsu: Crystal Ice Mirrors!"
Mist and water vapor began to condense.
Under the astonished gazes of the group, mirrors of ice formed out of thin air, suspended in mid-air, surrounding Sasuke within.
As for Naruto, due to the range of the jutsu, he happened to be outside the ice mirrors.
This also showed that in Haku's consciousness, Sasuke's threat was far greater than Naruto's.
"This... what kind of jutsu is this?" Sasuke asked in shock.
Haku's figure drifted towards the ice mirror, and under Sasuke's incredulous gaze, merged into it like a phantom.
The next moment.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!~
Senbon fell rapidly like raindrops!
The dense attack made Sasuke's eyes widen instantly.
Can't dodge!
Pfft pfft pfft pfft!!
"Ah!!!~"
Sasuke couldn't help but cry out in pain.
The senbon formed of ice crystals brought pain far exceeding ordinary ninja tools.
"Sasuke!!!" Sakura exclaimed.
"Sasuke!!!" Naruto turned pale with shock.
Immediately, he threw the shuriken on his body at the enemy, his figure rushing desperately towards Sasuke surrounded by the ice mirrors!
Within the siege, Sasuke endured the pain, observing the enemy's ninjutsu.
"What a powerful method!"
"What a peculiar ninjutsu!"
Surrounded by ice mirrors as tall as a person on all sides, blocking all exits tightly.
Within the ice mirror space, the opponent's attacks were swift and dense.
His proud eyesight actually couldn't see through the opponent's attack flaws!
The opponent's attacks were too fast; his physical reaction speed couldn't keep up!
What kind of move is this!
Kekkei Genkai?
To be able to shuttle freely in the mirrors, and the speed is so fast!
Can't deal with it!
Making a judgment in his heart, Sasuke subconsciously turned his gaze outside the ice mirrors.
Inside the ice mirrors, the enemy could move freely and swiftly, and the attacks were incomparably sharp; he absolutely couldn't withstand the enemy's means.
The best way now was to rely on that guy Naruto!
The opponent attacking from outside the ice mirrors, coordinating with himself inside...
His eyes suddenly widened, staring blankly!
Under his gaze, Naruto rushed in unstoppably (like an idiot).
The next moment, a familiar and annoying big face magnified in front of his eyes.
"Yo!"
"Sasuke, I'm here to save you! Are you okay?"
Sasuke: "..."
Sakura outside the field: "(ｷ｀ﾟДﾟ´)!!"
Sakura jumped up and down: "Naruto, you super big idiot!"
Even she could see the danger in the field.
That guy Naruto actually stupidly rammed his head in!
She had never seen such an idiot among idiots!!!
"It's over."
"It seems... only rely on me!"
Sakura muttered to herself.
Her trembling hands tightened around the kunai.
With a movement of her feet, she intended to step forward.
Even if there was no chance of winning, she couldn't watch her Sasuke suffer danger while doing nothing herself.
Pat, a hand pressed on her shoulder, stopping her action.
Sakura turned her head: "It's you!?"
Looking at Musashi in front of her, the anger in Sakura's heart bubbled up in an instant.
Hid and didn't appear during the previous battle.
Arrived late for the current battle too.
If you could have come earlier, maybe Sasuke wouldn't...
Ultimately, worry for Sasuke exceeded anger towards the person in front of her. Sakura said anxiously, "You... Senior Musashi, Sasuke is in danger! Go quickly..."
"Don't worry, I know." Musashi interrupted Sakura.
"The opponent's jutsu is dangerous; just stay here."
He stared intently at the ice mirror encirclement not far away.
This was his first time encountering a Kekkei Genkai other than the Sharingan, examining it carefully with curiosity for a moment.
Ice Release Kekkei Genkai, should be a combination of Wind and Water nature chakra.
However, it seems not just that simple.
Able to shuttle freely within the ice mirrors, exactly why?
Kekkei Genkai, exactly how is it formed, and how does it function?
If I could research such a jutsu up close...
The instinct for research excited him, but unfortunately, now was not the time.
Naruto and Sasuke were still trapped in the ice mirrors, in danger at any moment.
...
Inside the tight encirclement of the ice mirrors, Sasuke seized the opportunity and used all his strength to release his best ninjutsu.
"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!"
Fire nature could counter ice.
He hoped to break the opponent's jutsu with Fire Style.
The scorching flames burned fiercely, hitting the ice mirrors.
Then, the flames exploded and scattered.
His idea fell through.
When the scattered flames vanished, the ice mirrors in front of him were intact as before.
Sasuke despaired in his heart.
"Actually, even Fire Style can't work?"
"Don't waste your energy." Haku's voice echoed all around, seeming to come from every ice mirror.
"Fire Style of this level poses no threat to my jutsu at all."
"Obstructing Lord Zabuza's path, you must be eliminated."
"Lord Zabuza's goal is my dream, you... must all die!"
All the Hakus in the ice mirrors moved together, raising the senbon in their hands, about to attack.
Seeing this, Musashi outside the field moved instantly!
Although he wanted to study the opponent's jutsu properly, he couldn't wait any longer.
The opponent's attack was too dangerous; he couldn't pin his hopes on Naruto and Sasuke avoiding vital attacks as originally destined. Too risky!
