Chapter 429: Battle of Sand Village ()
The blue-red flames reached Ye Cang in just a moment, catching him off guard.
As a high-ranking member of the Sand Village, although she knew about the bloodline limit of Soul Release, she had never encountered it in the Ninja World. Therefore, Nakayoshi's sudden Soul Release became a surprise move, making all of Ye Cang's plans fall into the air. She was forced to choose to resist the ninjutsu that was absorbed by Nakayoshi and then bounced back!
.........
.........
.........
"Nakayoshi! Leave the Scorch Release Yegura to me! You are responsible for taking down the Sand Village Hospital!" After Yegura's first wave of attack was resolved, Otsutsuki Mukai said to Nakayoshi in front of him and the other Kirigakure ninjas behind him.
With Nakaji's strength, it is still too difficult for him to deal with Ye Cang who has mastered the Scorch Release. Even though the Ye Cang in front of him is not at her peak at this time, only several senior ninjas can join forces to be on par with Ye Cang in combat power.
Therefore, the most efficient option is for him to be responsible for fighting Ye Cang alone, while the other senior ninjas quickly take over the Sand Village Hospital!
"Yes! Lord Mukai!" Nakayoshi and the other Kirigakure jonin responded in unison, temporarily suppressing the fighting spirit that was brewing in their hearts. While Otsutsuki Mukai attacked Yekura, they bypassed them and rushed into the Sand Village Hospital.
After all, Otsutsuki Mukai is not only superior to them in strength and status, but more importantly, the surname he is using now is the same as that of the Fourth Mizukage, whom they respect the most!
"Eight Trigrams·Breaking the Mountain!!!"
Otsutsuki Mukai instantly came in front of Ye Cang and launched a powerful Bagua Palm at his face. A thick beam of chakra light exploded directly near Ye Cang and hit Ye Cang's body in the blink of an eye.
-----------------
Near the Kazekage Building, the Xiguashan Puffer Demon had already approached with the other six ninja swordsmen.
According to Uzumaki Kana's perception and the Byakugan's confirmation, according to the information collected by White Zetsu, all the Sand Village's high-ranking officials who remained in the Sand Village were still in the Kazekage Building at this time.
Therefore, in order to take away the Sand Village in one wave, Kirigakure dispatched seven Kage-level figures to deal with these Sand Village high-level officials, giving them the respect they deserved.
After all, although most of those who could serve as high-ranking officials in Sunagakure have now been corrupted by power, are old and frail, and their strength has declined, they were at least elite jonin once, and they must have one or two unique skills...!
"No need for those fancy assassinations! Just a direct storm!" After listening to Uzumaki Kana's report on the defense of the Kazekage Building, as well as the approximate strength levels of the Sand Village Anbu and the Sand Village high-ranking officials guarding the Kazekage Building, Xiguashan Puffer Ghost thought for a moment and spoke lightly.
You have to know that they, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, are not ordinary Kage-level. Even without using their ninja swords, they already have the combat power of a Kage-level. Then with the blessing of their ninja swords, they can be ranked in the upper-middle level even among the Kage-level strongmen. Not to mention, they also have the combined attack technique that they have honed together over the years!
.........
.........
.........
"Let's start! Let Ying use his Thunder Blade to break the defensive barrier first, and then Qianren will use his Flounder to directly destroy the Fengying Building!" After a brief pause of a few seconds, the Xiguashan Puffer Ghost continued to give orders.
After hearing this, Saito Kage and Kizuna Chiba nodded, then stepped forward at the same time, holding their respective ninja swords, and their chakra burst out directly!
"Thunder Blade Ninja Technique·Multiple Thunder Strikes!!!"
Saito Kage took the lead. He crossed the Thunder Blades in his hands and plunged them directly into the ground, then clasped his hands together.
In an instant, the originally clear sky suddenly became gloomy and dark, as if covered by a huge black curtain. Then, several extremely thick dragon-like lightning bolts emerged from the void without warning, with the power to destroy the world, and struck the Fengying Building below at an astonishing speed.
Every bolt of lightning flashes with dazzling light and is accompanied by bursts of deafening thunder...!
This is the strongest lightning technique that Saito Kage can use at the moment, which does not require charging, and this attack is infused with nearly half of his chakra!
After all, the purpose of this attack is to break the defensive barrier, and among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, only he who has mastered Lightning Release and can rely on continuous high-intensity lightning bombardments can do it!
"boom!!!"
Violent roars and explosions sounded centered on the Kazekage Building, and the Kazekage Building's defensive barrier appeared the moment the lightning struck, flashing a faint light as it struggled to resist Saito Kage's sudden lightning attack.
When the first bolt of lightning struck the barrier fiercely, the Anbu members in charge of maintaining the barrier in the Fengying Building vomited blood and their breath instantly weakened, but the barrier still stubbornly held its position.
Soon after, the second and third lightning bolts followed one after another, each one was stronger than the previous one, and its power became more and more astonishing. At this time, the Anbu members responsible for maintaining the barrier could no longer hold on. Blood continued to gushed out from their seven orifices. They were directly killed by the aftermath of the attack that Saito Kage left through the barrier!
And when the fourth lightning struck, there was only a crisp "crack" sound, and the defensive barrier of the Fengying Building finally couldn't bear the burden and completely shattered. The chakra fragments of the broken barrier flew like raindrops, drawing irregular arcs in the air, and fell on the surrounding ground...!
Just at this time!
Kizuna Chiba, who had already released his dual swords, Tail Tail, and had accumulated chakra for some time, took action!
"Double Sword Ninjutsu: Heaven-shattering Slash!!!"
In an instant, an incomparably thick chakra ball shot out from the blades of the double swords, the flaming ...
Along with a loud explosion that echoed throughout the Sand Village, the iconic building that symbolized the Kazekage's authority, the Kazekage Building, was shattered and collapsed...!
.........
.........
.........
In fact, when the attack came, the Sunagakure senior members in the Kazekage Building had already noticed it. After all, no matter what, they were once elite ninjas of the Sunagakure Village. It would be difficult for them not to sense such a blatant attack.
However, the vision blinded by being in a high position for a long time, and the blind confidence that they were one of the five major ninja villages even though they were attacked, caused the Sand Village high-level officials to miss the best opportunity.
Therefore, by the time the barrier was broken and they realized that things were out of their control, it was too late to organize a defense or evacuate.
The remaining lightning attacks of Saito Kage, plus the "Heaven-Slash" released in one go by Chiba Chiba, who had unleashed his dual swords to their maximum power, instantly destroyed the Kazekage Building, which had been reinforced by the Third Kazekage Tetsusa with his "Magnetic Style: Iron Sand" and the Fourth Kazekage Rasa with his "Magnetic Style: Gold Sand"...!
Many of the Sand Village Anbu members guarding the Kazekage Building were killed by the aftermath of the attack before they could even figure out what was happening!
In the ruins of the collapsed Fengying Building, broken bricks and rubble were scattered everywhere, piling up like a mountain, as if it was a huge wound left after the earth was torn apart. Dark red streams slowly meandered among the broken sand and gravel. Lifeless corpses lay in a pool of blood, some with twisted and deformed limbs, and some with hideous faces. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood mixed with the smell of dust, which was pungent and disgusting...!
Seeing the Kazekage Building collapse as expected, Xiguashan Pufferfish laughed grimly and issued an order, "Free movement! Quick battle and quick decision! All the Sand Village high-level officials! No one will be left alive!"
Then, Xiguashan Pufferfish picked up his big sword, Samehada, and instantly rushed towards a Sand Village high-ranking official who was wearing a turban covering half of his face and jumped out of the ruins and was about to escape...!
After hearing the order from their captain, Xiguashan Pufferfish, the rest of the ninja swordsmen also showed bloodthirsty smiles, brandished their own ninja swords, and killed the Sunagakure high-ranking members who had not suffered too many injuries because they were in the center of the Kazekage Building and were now in chaos and preparing for a strategic retreat.
