Chapter 107 His bird isn't as fast as my dragon
The immense chakra of the tailed beast surged forth, immediately causing Utakata to show a pained expression.
For a child who is only a few years old, such strength is obviously too much of a burden.
This was under the condition that the Six-Tailed Saiken preferred Hideaki, and was being carefully controlled.
"Six-Tails! Use strong acid spray!"
Under Utakata's instruction, the manifested six-tailed half-body immediately moved, tilting its body slightly to the side, and then suddenly spitting out strong acid liquid at Ryunosuke!
The Six-Tails' signature attack method is to use foam and strong acid to corrode its enemies!
In the ninja world, the strength of all elemental attacks depends on the amount of chakra injected into them.
With the immense chakra reserves of tailed beasts, any attack they unleash, regardless of its nature, will deal maximum damage.
Even Jonin, unless they use their strongest ninjutsu at all costs, can hardly withstand the attacks that the Tailed Beasts throw casually.
As soon as they get their hands on these strong acids, they will turn into a pile of rotten flesh on the spot!
"That's a tailed beast..."
Like other summoned beasts from the sacred land, Ryunosuke had naturally heard of the Tailed Beasts.
He instinctively knew that even in its current incomplete state, they were definitely not to be trifled with. So he accelerated even faster to dodge the barrage of strong acid spewed out by the Six-Tails.
One of the attacks was unavoidable, and Souji used a giant kunai to block it for Ryunosuke.
"Mochizuki Souji is really troublesome...
Is that technique like Samehada, capable of consuming the chakra it comes into contact with?"
Because their performances were quite similar, Mizukage couldn't help but make this connection.
Although I already valued Mochizuki Souji highly, I found him to be even more difficult to deal with than I had anticipated when we actually fought.
The Kunai Technique, known for its unerring accuracy and perfect accuracy, is said to be a surefire way to hit its target.
He can control dozens of puppets at the same time and is a subordinate of a Shadow-level puppeteer.
A dragon that flies nimbly and swiftly through the sky, making it extremely difficult to hit.
Now it has been discovered that Mochizuki Souji can also give kunai effects similar to Samehada...
How should we deal with him?
Ryunosuke broke through the Mizukage's water tornado formation and Utakata's Six-Tails acid attack.
Then, with the support of Souji and Sasori's wind-style ninjutsu, and with the wind pushing it from behind, it quickly circled around to the rear of the Kirigakure ninja army.
"Damn it! That despicable scoundrel! He wants to kill the ordinary ninjas first!?"
Shuiying was both shocked and furious.
In large-scale battles in the ninja world, it is an unwritten rule that everyone follows when facing opponents of the same level.
Because if the strong separate from each other, it will turn into a situation where they slaughter each other's weaker members, which is not good for either side.
But the current situation...
The Mizukage gazed at the Konoha ninja army in the distance.
Although this distance would be covered in the blink of an eye for him, if he were to actually make the exchange...
It will take him a short time to get there, but enough time for a Kage-level figure like Mochizuki Souji to go on a killing spree.
Furthermore, Konoha has a large number of high-ranking ninjas. With so many people, even he would find it difficult to deal with them.
On the contrary, last time Mochizuki Souji took down three former Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist in a very short time, plus seven Jonin.
At that speed... it felt like anyone except himself and the Jinchuriki would be taken down very quickly.
Unfortunately, the giant crow's speed couldn't keep up with the dragon's...
Mizukage instantly weighed the options in his mind, and finally gritted his teeth, deciding to abandon the exchange. He waved his hand and shouted:
"Everyone, attack with full force! Unleash a barrage of bullets! Shoot that dragon down!
"The left side! The barrage is too thin!"
The Mizukage ordered the entire Kirigakure army to attack, attempting to defeat Ryunosuke with concentrated water power, while he himself rushed over with Utakata.
However, they hadn't gone far when they heard a commotion behind them.
At this time, the Konoha ninja army advanced towards Kirigakure, and even fired a large number of cannonballs from ship-mounted artillery.
The power of these cannons is at most equivalent to a regular B-rank ninjutsu when fired, which is not very powerful.
The firing process is also more complicated than the hand seals for ninjutsu, but the range is much longer.
At this time, it was more effective for the Konoha ninjas than using ninjutsu, and it quickly caused a lot of casualties.
"this..."
Mizukage was slightly taken aback.
Why did the Konoha ninja army launch their attack at this time?
A pincer attack?
Should I deal with Mochizuki Souji first, or with the Konoha Ninja Army?
If I go to deal with Mochizuki Souji, then who will deal with the Konoha ninja army? How should the troops be deployed?
The water was in a state of confusion for a moment.
The combat training that ninjas receive is basically for small-scale battles where neither side has more than ten people.
Even the Kage have not received much training in large-scale battles, so they are mostly just armchair strategists.
Mizukage, who didn't have much talent for adapting to situations, suddenly seemed at a loss.
"Lord Mizukage!"
At that moment, Mei Terumi looked up and shouted at the Mizukage:
"Mochizuki Souji is too strong. Only you and Utakata can fight him. Let the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist deal with him!"
"Hmm? This... okay! That's settled!"
Mei Terumi was like a timely rain, giving the Mizukage advice. After thinking about it for a moment, the Mizukage felt it seemed feasible and quickly made a decision.
Thus, under the Mizukage's orders, the remaining five members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, along with the Hell Crab and Hellhound, led three thousand Kirigakure ninja to confront the Konoha ninja army.
The Mizukage continued to pursue Souji with Utakata on the giant crow, unleashing powerful water-style ninjutsu attacks.
Ordinary ninjas, on the other hand, use ninjutsu to launch dense attacks, hoping that even if they just randomly throw punches, they can hit as many times as possible and cause some damage.
With such a large number of people, even top-tier dragons couldn't avoid them all and could only roam at a distance.
However, Souji wasn't in a hurry. After all, ordinary ninjas couldn't withstand the strain and would deplete his chakra in a few moves. Then he could just kill them all.
Looking down at the entire scene, Souji realized that the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, whom he wanted to kill, were not with the Mizukage to deal with him.
The Hell Crab and the Hellhound were heading towards the Konoha Ninja Army.
"So they're sending them to engage the Konoha ninja army? I went all that way and couldn't find them..."
"That's good, though. Now the Mizukage and Utakata are separated from them. When I go back over there later, no one will be able to stop me from taking them down."
"The Water Shadow can't catch me, because his bird isn't as fast as my dragon."
Souji quickly finalized a plan, and then, together with Sasori, seized every opportunity to eliminate some ordinary Kirigakure members.
The Giant Crow is indeed not as fast as the dragon, and the Mizukage can only grit his teeth and stare helplessly from behind.
Kakuzu remained hidden in the shadows, silently observing the situation.
"Looking at it in practice, Mochizuki Souji is indeed very difficult to deal with. He flies in the sky and is very fast. Even when the Mizukage summons the Giant Crow, he is still helpless against him."
"However, he hasn't left yet. It seems he still wants to fight to the death. Is he just wearing down the Mizukage and waiting for an opportunity?"
"They will eventually clash to determine the victor, and that will be my chance!"
"Let's just wear each other down now, preferably until we're both severely injured!"
