Chapter 108 Blue Lotus, Bloom! (Subscribe and Vote)
"Captain, you can sweep the formation for me later, just in time for me to test out the new technique I developed earlier!"
After the perception was over, Hoshita Xiuichi spoke.
Under the mask, Sarutobi Shinnosuke's eyes narrowed: "Is it the same technique from the end of last year?"
Last year Hoshita Shuichi fell asleep for two days and two nights because he was developing a new technique. He and Chihiro had visited him, so they knew a little bit about the situation.
Considering the strength and fighting style shown by Shuichi Hoshita and the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki in the previous battle, Sarutobi Shinnosuke nodded: "Okay, I will raid the formation for you!"
"But don't be brave!"
Hoshita Shuichi chuckled: "Captain, don't worry, I cherish my life very much!"
Handing the mask to Sarutobi Shinnosuke, Hoshita Shuichi took off his hood and waited silently.
Soon, five figures appeared a hundred meters ahead.
"Is this the kid who defeated Lao Zi?"
"It should be him. We may have mistaken him, but our perception will not be wrong. Don't be careless just because of your age. We all saw the strength of his shadow clone just now!"
"What I'm saying is that this hateful brat must be killed!"
"Be careful, there is another person who should be hiding in the dark, that woman who is good at illusions!"
…
The moment they saw Hoshita Shuichi's childish face, Iwa Ninja was a little shocked. Some people had a moment of contempt, but thinking about the previous battle, the contempt suddenly disappeared, replaced by solemnity and hatred.
12 people, now only 5 of them are left, 6 are dead, and one person was seriously injured in the final explosion, and it is impossible for him to survive.
Only a fool would despise such a painful price.
At this time, Xingxia Xiuyi clasped his hands together: Blue lotus, bloom!
The blue light between his eyebrows lit up, and the blooming light was like a blue lotus blooming.
The gorgeous blue light quickly covered Hoshita Shuichi's head, torso, and limbs.
boom!
Blue flames ignited the whole body, as if wearing a blue flame royal robe with lotus patterns.
Hoshita Shuichi's long hair stained with blue flames flew back in the wind, and the raindrops falling from the sky were completely evaporated before they even got close to him.
Under his feet, the muddy ground quickly dried up, and the nearby vegetation soon spontaneously combusted.
Next to him, Sarutobi Shinnosuke felt the terrible heat and immediately retreated a distance. He looked at the flame chakra coat on Shuichi Hoshita in shock.
"Is this similar to the Four-Tails Jinchuuriki... Fire Release Chakra Mode?"
"No, there is still the power of wind escape!"
"What an amazing chakra, terrifying control!"
Sarutobi Shinnosuke was shocked and exclaimed again and again: "This should be no less than Kumo Ninja's Thunder Release Chakra Mode!"
"Shuichi is really Konoha's unique fire escape and wind escape genius!"
At this moment, Sarutobi Shinnosuke blew Hoshita Shuichi away.
The Iwa ninja on the opposite side was equally shocked.
Hoshita Shuichi's current state, the first thing they thought of was the lava armor of the four-tailed Jinchuuriki Lao Murasaki, which is the melting chakra mode.
However, that was only possible with the support of the tailed beast's chakra.
Could this kid in front of me be Konoha's Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki?
Absolutely impossible!
"This guy's Fire Release has reached a level comparable to that of the Third Raikage of Cloud Ninja, and is similar to the Thunder Release Chakra Mode!"
"Be careful and try not to get into close combat with him. Like Lao Zi, this guy's body temperature must be very high!"
"Creating favorable terrain consumes his power. Such a mode will definitely consume a lot of chakra. If it is not a Jinchuriki, it is absolutely impossible to sustain it for too long!"
…
Several Iwa ninjas quickly exchanged opinions.
But at this time, Hoshita Shuichi, who was already ready, said to Sarutobi Shinnosuke: "I'm on!"
Before he finished speaking, his figure had already rushed out, pulling out a series of twisted blue afterimages.
"So fast!"
Sarutobi Shinnosuke secretly exclaimed, this speed is faster than Hoshige Shuichi's previous use of Step by Step Lotus.
"The fusion of fire escape and wind escape power has not formed the blood inheritance limit, but it is already very terrifying and has changed the model of the teleportation technique."
Thinking in his mind, Sarutobi Shinnosuke also followed.
The Iwa ninja on the opposite side also shouted in a low voice the moment Hoshita Shuichi started to move: "Here we come!"
Immediately afterwards, someone squatted down and pressed his hands on the ground.
In front of Hoshixia Xiuyi, who was running at high speed, walls were rising one after another.
Hoshita Shuichi drew his sword, but it was not the Amanbashi sword, but the tachi equipped by the ANBU.
At the moment it was pulled out, it was slashed forward, the blue sword light burst out, and high walls exploded.
This is the Blue Flame Waterfall Knife in the fire escape chakra mode. It possesses the power of wind escape. The blue flames combined with fire escape and wind escape escape from the body, forming a blue crescent-shaped blade.
Blue Flame Sky Blade Second Stage - Blue Flame Vacuum Slash!
Cutting open the road ahead with a knife, Hoshixia Xiuyi passed through the wall, but at this moment the surrounding ground had risen, and what he was facing at this moment seemed to be a straight cliff.
And just when he jumped up to leave the huge pit, sharp stone pillars grew out of the walls on all sides, all growing at high speed towards the middle.
Xingxia Xiuyi hummed, and just as he was about to cut off these stone pillars with his sword, thick stone pillars quickly grew out of the place where he was standing.
But these stone pillars avoided Hoshita Shuichi, and instead collided with the stone pillars growing on all sides.
Boom!
Stone pillars exploded.
It's Sarutobi Shinnosuke's technique!
Although it did not completely offset the stone pillars of the Iwa Ninja, it also gave Shuichi Hoshita room to move.
The figure flashed, the blue sword light flashed one after another, and the stone pillars fell one after another.
In the blink of an eye, Hoshita Xiuichi was on the ground, and what greeted him was a sea tide formed by gravel and sand, sweeping in surgingly.
Earth escape-earth flow!
Xingxia Xiuyi walked through the air, but at any moment there was an explosive talisman in the tide of sand.
Boom boom!
The detonating talisman exploded, gravel and sand flew around, and a shock wave swept towards Hoshixia Shuichi.
But Hoshita Shuichi did not dodge, because there were blue lotuses blooming on his legs and feet, and high-temperature airflow spurted out, canceling out the shock wave of the explosion beneath him.
Naturally, those bursts of gravel and sand could not pose any threat.
However, at this moment, two more stone dragons swooped down from the air and attacked each other.
Earth Escape-Earth Stone Dragon!
Hoshixia swung his sword, and the two earth dragons exploded together, turning into countless rubbles and scattering.
Seeing on the ground that his ninjutsu was broken so easily, a strong Iwa ninja jonin put his hands together to form the Si seal and opened his mouth to spit out the Iwatetsu cannon, but out of the corner of his eye he saw a river of mud sweeping towards him. Come.
Sarutobi Shinnosuke's ninjutsu, Earth Release-Earth Style Taiga!
The strong Iwa Ninjounin could only give up the attack, and retreated with a flash of his body. After landing, he pressed his palms on the ground, and the earth wall rose from the ground, blocking the large river.
At this moment, a blue dragon head emerged on Hoshixia Xiu's shoulders after the stone dragon was broken in the air. The dragon's mouth opened, and blazing white fireballs were sprayed out one after another toward the Iwa Ninja's position below.
Boom!
Explosions sounded one after another, and Hoshixia Xiuyi was covered by artillery fire, causing rocks to fly everywhere.
Several Iwa ninja fought and retreated, constantly changing the terrain to defend Hoshita Shuichi from the air.
"Um?"
The strong Iwa Ninjojonin's complexion changed just as he avoided a fire ball, because the ground under his feet had turned into swampy mud and was spinning at high speed, pulling him down.
It's that guy again, the Tudun is no worse than him!
"hateful!"
The Iwa Ninja Jonin gritted his teeth and was about to use the Earth Substitute to escape, but Hoshita Shuichi suddenly flashed in front of him, with blue fire lotus overlapping and blooming under his feet, standing on the rotating swamp without being affected at all.
The Iwa Ninja Jonin's pupils dilated and he immediately gave up his previous thoughts, and the skin on his body hardened rapidly.
Earth Escape - Hardening Technique!
At the same time, he quickly formed seals with his hands.
Earth Release - Rock Fist Technique!
Even if I die, I will at least seriously injure you!
The Iwa Ninja Jonin had a crazy look on his face, and his right hand was quickly covered by rocks.
But before he could punch, Shuichi Hoshita had already swung his knife. The high temperature formed by the two forces of fire and wind, and the terrifying cutting ability due to the high-speed flow, easily broke through the hardening technique and passed by the neck.
Immediately afterwards Hoshita Shuichi disappeared, but the strong Iwa Ninja was drained of all his strength, sank quickly, and was submerged in the swamp in the blink of an eye.
The other Iwa Ninja Jonin who saw this scene was almost jealous: "Tokuryu!"
"hateful!"
"Go to hell, kid!"
Pressing both palms on the ground, dense rock pillars suddenly grew on the ground. These rock pillars continued to grow into the air, some were tall and some were short.
Hideka Hoshita's body was covered with lotus flowers blooming, especially the blue butterflies dancing in the air, which he easily dodged one by one.
But just when he broke through to the central area, these rock pillars suddenly exploded.
For a moment, the rocks pierced through the air, and countless pieces of rubble were shot towards Xiu Yichan under the star.
Earth Escape-Earth Pillar Explosion!
Even Shuichi Hoshita couldn't dodge such a saturation attack.
But Hoshita Shuichi didn't dodge at all, allowing pieces of gravel to break through the air.
The gravel melted instantly as soon as it came into contact with his chakra coat, unable to cause any harm at all.
"This guy's body surface temperature is too high, and such an attack will have no effect."
"We must trap him first, otherwise with such speed and defense capabilities, we may..."
"Understood!"
"There is also that guy who is in the way, we must kill him!"
"Be careful of the other illusion master."
The remaining four Iwa ninjas communicated, but their attacks did not stop at all.
As he spoke, the rocks on the ground fell off, forming long sharp sticks that flew towards Hoshixia Shuichi, who was fighting his way out of the forest of earth pillars.
Earth Escape - Rock Stealing Stick!
The dragon head on Hoshixia Xiuyi's shoulder immediately opened his mouth and spit out fireballs, blowing up the stone sticks.
Sarutobi Shinnosuke, who was following Hoshita Shuichi, was also taking action. He used a combination of fire and earth escape to form burning rock balls and shoot them at the four Iwa Ninjas, interfering with and slowing down their attacks and seals.
Earthen walls stood up one after another, and then exploded one after another. Shuichi Hoshizita rushed to an Iwa Ninja behind the earth wall, and slashed it with his sword. The Iwa Ninja's body was split into two, but then scattered into rubble.
Almost at the same time, the ground under Hoshita Shuichi's feet had been broken into sand and gravel. A rock ninja's head popped up, opened his mouth and spat out a large amount of rocks, forming a rock man, and hugged Hoshixia Shuichi's legs.
"Clone trap!"
Sarutobi Shinnosuke behind him immediately formed a seal, but the next moment, his feet were grabbed by a pair of hands extending from the ground: "I will never let you interfere again, go to hell, bastard!"
The Iwa ninja's voice sounded, pulling Sarutobi Shinnosuke underground.
But only halfway through, Sarutobi Shinnosuke's body fell into a pile of mud.
What?
The Rock Ninja was surprised, and then he found that the rocks and soil around him had turned into a muddy swamp, and it was rotating and squeezing him.
This is a trap!
"This guy, he knew it a long time ago..."
The Rock Ninja hurriedly controlled the sand-like gravel to lift himself up, trying to get out before the power of the Yellow Spring Swamp penetrated.
But Sarutobi Shinnosuke's voice sounded: "My existence is not only to assist and interfere, but also a bait, a trap!"
As soon as the voice fell, Sarutobi Shinnosuke completed the seal, opened his mouth and sprayed a high-pressure water column, easily piercing the Rock Ninja whose half body was still underground.
While the main body died, on the other side, the shadow clone who had just used the rock pillar prison to imprison Shuichi Hoshita also exploded with a bang.
Only three of the four Rock Ninjas were left.
One Rock Ninja dragged Shuichi Hoshita underground, and the other two had already completed the ninjutsu together.
Earth escape-mountain earth technique!
On both sides of Shuichi Hoshita, two huge hemispherical rocks more than two meters high rose up, and then hit Shuichi Hoshita in the middle at high speed.
All these attacks and defenses are long to talk about, but in fact they happened in a flash.
Shuichi Hoshita fell into a trap and was caught by the enemy underground, followed by the rock pillar prison and the mountain soil technique.
The four rock ninjas cooperated tacitly, and the ninjutsu was coherent without any gaps.
Even Shuichi Hoshita's reaction could not interrupt such a coherent technique.
If there is no way to interrupt, then don't interrupt!
Shuichi Hoshita's mind was running at high speed. At the moment the rock pillar prison appeared, he handed the sword to his left hand, inserted it into the ground, and pierced the enemy underground.
No hardening technique could resist it.
Then, Shuichi Hoshita opened his arms to both sides, raised his palms, and faced outwards, and then a huge blue lotus emerged, and then bloomed in layers on both sides.
Each bloom is an explosion, a high-temperature shock wave, and the overlapping high-temperature shock waves spew out. The hemispherical rocks that came from both sides at high speed just crushed the rock pillars and paused, and then exploded with a bang.
"What?"
The two rock ninjas couldn't help but exclaim.
And behind, Sarutobi Shinnosuke's ninjutsu has been completed.
Earth escape-sky-falling lid!
A huge piece of earth and stone "pot lid" fell on the top of their heads. The two rock ninjas didn't have time to seal and quickly dodged and retreated.
But the next moment, two blazing white light beams penetrated and came, and the two rock ninjas twisted in the air to avoid.
"Ah!"
One of the rock ninjas screamed miserably, and one arm was cut off by the blazing white light beam. As soon as his body landed, a blazing white flame suddenly burned on his body, and he screamed even more miserably.
Succulent technique!
The other rock ninja was shocked and angry, and he wanted to rescue him by sealing, but a blazing white light beam had already burst out. He was about to jump to dodge, but his body suddenly froze.
On the side, Chihiro's figure rose from the ground, and her hands formed seals.
Magic - Tree Binding Kill!
Puff!
The fire dragon breath fired by Shuichi Hoshita's shoulder dragon head hit the heart of the rock ninja with great accuracy.
Bang, the rock ninja fell to the ground with his eyes wide open.
Another one was also burned to death by the blazing white flame.
So far, all five rock ninjas have been killed.
Three to five, all wins!
The blue flame on his body went out, and then the blue chakra also shrank back to his forehead, and then the Yin seal and Bagua seal were resealed.
Shuichi Hoshita let out a long breath of foul air.
Cool!
The breath that was blocked in his heart was finally released.
Sarutobi Shinnosuke and Chihiro came to Shuichi Hoshita, looking at the battlefield and the corpses, they were a little silent.
Although it was three to five, they knew very well that Shuichi Hoshita could achieve the current results even without their assistance.
Fire escape chakra mode, so terrifying!
"Shuichi's strength is probably not inferior to the three ninjas and elite jonins like Konoha White Fang."
Chihiro silently evaluated.
Sarutobi Shinnosuke handed the mask to Shuichi Hoshita, who was still savoring the battle, and helped him pull out the sword, saying: "Retreat, such a big commotion should attract a lot of ninjas!"
Shuichi Hoshita came to his senses, nodded, put on the mask and took the sword.
The three of them immediately retreated overnight, and Shuichi Hoshita still led the way with his thermal vision eyes, until they entered the Land of Fire, and the team stopped to rest.
"Shuichi, you rest first, Xun and I will keep watch."
Sarutobi Shinnosuke arranged.
Shuichi Hoshita was not polite, sitting under the tree with his eyes closed, but he did not rest immediately but reviewed the battle just now.
There is no doubt that the fire escape chakra mode is very strong.
High temperature attacks and defends at the same time, and greatly increases his speed.
If the opponent in this battle was not a ninja like Rock Ninja who is good at changing terrain, he would have been rushed to the front by him long ago.
In addition, in the fire chakra mode, it is more convenient to perform Lotus Steps, Dragon Flame Breath, Buddha's Wrath Lotus, and Blue Flame Sword Technique.
If there is a disadvantage, it is that in this mode, he can only perform Fire Style and Wind Style Ninjutsu.
Hoshita Shuichi smiled secretly: "But this is enough. Fire Style and Wind Style are my strongest aspects now. If these can't defeat the enemy, other ninjutsu will be difficult."
"Besides, I haven't used my full strength today!"
"Fire Hell Lotus, Wind Style Rasenshuriken, Wind and Fire Light Wheel Rasenshuriken are all useless."
"But against Rock Ninja, although these techniques are strong, they are actually not very suitable."
The Iwa Ninjas are very defensive, and even a few Iwa Ninja jonins can defend themselves against large-scale attacks.
On the contrary, powerful single-target attacks such as Dragon Flame Breath and Blue Flame Blade Technique cannot be defended against.
Of course, the Wind Release Spiral Shuriken and the Wind and Fire Spiral Shuriken can also be single-target attacks.
But to deal with these Iwa Ninjas, Hoshishita Shuichi didn't think it was necessary.
"At this stage, with such combat power, coupled with the Yin-sealed chakra, if we don't waste it during the war, there should be no problem in saving our lives."
"It would be even better if we could add creative regeneration."
Thinking in his heart, Hoshixia Xiuyi fell into a deep sleep.
…
At the same time, the battlefield of the Kingdom of Rain.
Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan were the first to arrive.
But they were actually alerted by the fighting in the cave first, and then tracked them here.
"The terrain here has been completely changed..."
"It must be the Iwa Ninja, and only they have this ability!"
"It is indeed the Iwa Ninja. Just like the corpses left on the battlefield before, they all belong to the Iwa Ninja."
"Only from Iwa Ninja..."
Yahiko looked at the traces of the battlefield, his expression becoming more and more solemn: "In a battle of this scale, these Iwa ninjas are very strong, and their opponents..."
Nagato said: "Their opponents are more powerful, and there are only two...no, it should be three."
"The main force is a person who is very powerful in fire escape."
Xiaonan felt incredible after hearing this: "Can Fire Release be able to reach this level?"
"Are these Iwa Ninjas all at the Jonin level?"
Nagato carefully examined the traces left by Fire Release on the battlefield and thought: "Maybe it's not just Fire Release, but also Wind Release. It's a combination of Fire Release and Wind Release."
Yahiko said: "Is it the limit of the Burning Release Blood Successor? I remember that the Sand Ninja should have such a strong person."
Nagato shook his head: "No, if it's Zhuo Dun, there shouldn't be any trace of Feng Dun."
"This direction is probably someone from Konoha."
"Konoha..."
Yahiko sighed, then smiled: "As expected of the village where Jiraiya-sensei lives."
At this time, Nagato reminded: "Someone is coming!"
Yahiko immediately shouted: "Nagato, Konan, retreat!"
The three of them disappeared in unison.
Soon, waves of ninjas appeared on the battlefield one after another and then left.
