Chapter 549 Target: 9 Tails!
The plan against Ai formulated by the Third Mizukage Bing was perfectly implemented.
Ai and Mei Terumi were instantly engulfed by the horrifying explosion. When the explosion subsided, two figures, one blue and one red, pierced through the extremely thick smoke and dust stirred up by the explosion and flew out backwards.
"cough......"
Ai, who was blown away, coughed violently while spinning backwards in the air, and bright red blood kept flowing from the corners of his mouth.
But soon, Ai controlled his body to absorb the impact of the explosion, and then fell heavily on the sea, creating a huge splash of water.
The lightning armor on his body was blown into pieces and full of pits. Moreover, his strong and sturdy body was also affected by the explosion, and there were dense and hideous wounds on it. Blood continued to seep out of it, forming drops of shocking bloodstains.
However, Ai's physique and defense were still too strong. Although he was successfully injured by this wave of explosion, his injuries were not as serious as the Kirigakure people had expected.
However, this also proves that the Boiling Release, which has been blessed by the Six-Tails' Chakra, is indeed effective in breaking through the defense of Lightning Release Armor.
This means that the Third Raikage Ai, who seems to be invincible on the battlefield, does not need to be killed by outnumbering others, but can be killed directly by breaking through the defense!!!
At the same time, the Hidden Mist troops had already rushed to the front of the Hidden Cloud troops and started a fierce battle with a group of elite Cloud ninjas who had survived the bombardment.
But it must be said that the Hidden Cloud Village is well-known in the ninja world for its martial arts-loving people and the whole village is full of fighting ninjas. Both the quality and strength of the ninjas are stronger than the Sand Village and the Iwagakure Village that have been destroyed by the Hidden Mist Village.
Not to mention anything else, just looking at the performance in the artillery bombardment, it can be seen that after being bombarded by rounds of chakra artillery fire at the beginning, the Cloud Village still retained a considerable number of manpower after the Mist Village troops rushed up.
Of course, most of the Cloud Ninjas were able to survive the artillery fire thanks to Dodai, the top capable general under the Third Raikage Ai.
Dodai, who is deeply trusted by the Third Raikage Ai, possesses the same bloodline limit of Lava Release as the Four-Tails Jinchuriki, Lao Zi, of the Hidden Rock Village, but the direction he develops Lava Release is completely different from that of Lao Zi.
The form of Dodai's lava escape technique is not the magma or lime developed by the Iwagakure Village, but rubber with extremely strong defensive capabilities.
Therefore, when the overwhelming chakra fire fell not long ago, Dodai used his technique called "Lao Jie: Humo Jade" to protect a large number of elite Kumogakure troops, preserving a large number of Kumogakure troops who were injured but not in danger of their lives and could still fight.
However, as a price, the chakra in Dodai's body was almost drained out, and he temporarily lost his combat power.

.........
Mei Terumi, who was also blown away, fell on the sea almost at the same time as Ai, but her condition was much better than Ai's. After all, she had planned and prepared for this "mutually damaging" tactic for a long time.
Looking at Ai, who was half-squatting on the sea in the distance and looked a little embarrassed, Mei Terumi did not hesitate at all. After slightly adjusting her posture, she instantly burst out with chakra and rushed towards Ai.
Take advantage of his illness!
Kill him!
For a tough guy like Ai, you must not give him any chance to breathe!
"Whoosh!"
The dark red figure crossed a distance of hundreds of meters in an instant and arrived in front of Ai, then punched him hard in the chest.
"Boiling Release: Unparalleled Power!!!"
Accompanied by a few wisps of dark red white steam rising up, the moment Terumi Mei threw a punch, her speed increased again. As the sound of breaking through the air was heard, her fist had already hit the lightning armor on Ai's body that had been activated again.
However, although Mei Terumi was very fast, Ai's nerve reflexes and speed, which had been trained by years of baptism of Lightning Chakra, were even faster. With a "pop" sound, Ai's palm arrived first and firmly blocked Mei Terumi's fist.
And Ai only took three steps back under the impact of this punch.
But this was not beyond Mei Terumi's expectations. Therefore, while Ai's body was forced to retreat, she quickly retracted her fist and then jumped up lightly, looking down at Ai with a violent kick using the Boiling Release.
Ai couldn't help but feel happy when he saw this. You know, he is the Raikage, he is not afraid of competing in physical skills!
So, between the explosions of lightning, Ai stomped his feet hard on the sea surface and met Terumi Mei's powerful kick with an iron elbow.
"Heavy flow!!!"
"boom!"
The blue elbow and the red kick collided in mid-air, instantly causing a violent vibration, roar and strong impact. The violent air waves spread rapidly in all directions with the location where the two people collided as the center, and all the surrounding sea water was directly repelled.
Immediately, both sides retracted their moves at the same time, fell back to the sea surface, stabilized their bodies on the sea, and then rushed forward again at the same time.
"boom!"
The blue and red collided violently again, and a passionate collision between the Lightning Release Chakra mode and the half-tailed beast mode broke out instantly.
For a moment, the Third Raikage Ai and the half-tailed beast Terumi Mei kept punching and retracting their fists, kicking and then retracting their legs, engaging in a hearty close combat.
Dozens of rounds passed in the blink of an eye. Although the Third Raikage Ai was stronger than Mei Terumi, Mei Terumi was able to fight Ai on equal terms in the physical combat of fists and feet thanks to the ability of Boiling Release to break Ai's defense.
But at this moment, Tutai's angry and sad voice reached Ai's ears, "Boss! The village was attacked! The entire northeast corner has been completely reduced to ruins! And, Xiao Ai and Kirabi's life and death are currently unknown!!!"
"What!" Ai's heart started beating wildly after hearing this. His vision went dark in an instant and the movements of his hands suddenly stopped.
broken!
Home was stolen!
Of course, Mei Terumi would not miss Ai's fleeting moment of daze!
Then, Mei Terumi changed her form directly, and the dark red Vulpix chakra coat on her body turned into a weird blue-purple color in just a moment.
"Boiling Escape: Hiruma!!!"
This move is a further development of the Vulpix's ability using the Boiling Release technique by Mei Terumi.
Mei Terumi's half-tailed beast body suddenly became extremely soft, and in a strange posture she tightly entangled Ai, who was distracted and dazed by the attack on the Hidden Cloud Village.
Immediately, a large amount of milky white boiling chakra bubbles emerged from Terumi Mei's body, instantly corroding Ai's lightning chakra armor, leaving only a thin layer.
At the same time, several ninja swordsmen who were watching from the sidelines because they could not intervene for the time being, instantly seized the opportunity and moved forward one after another, launching a fierce attack on the Third Raikage Ai whose defense had been broken...!
"Boom!"
"boom!"
"Oh!"
As the sounds of various bombardments rang out one after another, the Third Raikage Ai was knocked out again.
And this time, he really suffered an injury that was enough to affect his fighting ability!
.........
.........
.........
However, although the Third Raikage Ai's combat power began to gradually decline after being injured, Mei Terumi and the Ninja Swordsmen were unable to kill him on the spot for a while.
But although the battle is still going on, the scales of victory are gradually tilting towards Mei Terumi and others.
In addition, the Kirigakure ninjas also gradually gained the upper hand in the battle with the Kumogakure ninjas, and with the participation of the Third Mizukage Bing in the battle, it was only a matter of time before the Kirigakure ninjas achieved the final victory.
-----------------
Time passed slowly. As Kirigakure gained the upper hand and Nagato and Black Zetsu returned to Kirigakure with the captured Two-Tails Jinchuriki and Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Kiyoshi also began his action.
Without any preparation or testing, Kiyoshi drove the "Yozen Hirasaka" directly at the doorstep of Uzumaki Kushina's house.
After all, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki's bright chakra is not too obvious in the field of vision of the Samsara Eye, and there is no need to deliberately perceive or search for it.
However, Konoha is still Konoha with a profound heritage. Relying on the barrier left by Uzumaki Mito, Konoha's barrier team and perception team discovered the abnormality of space fluctuations the moment Seiji entered Konoha Village, and confirmed that an external enemy had invaded the village.
Of course, this is also because Qingsi did not intend to deliberately hide his own chakra.
There's nothing else to it. It's just not necessary.
After all, no one in Konoha could stop him, and they couldn't even stop him for a while. What's more, at this time, a large number of Konoha's elite ninjas had been transferred to the border by the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen to prepare for a joint operation with the Hidden Rain Village.
.........
.........
.........
The moment Seiji emerged from "Yomi Hirasaka", Uzumaki Kushina, who was preparing a meal in the house, suddenly sensed a malicious intent directed at her that made her tremble all over.
The malice was so strong that it could not even be compared to all the malice she had felt since she mastered this ability!
"who!"
So, just when Kiyoshi was about to "politely" "invite" Uzumaki Kushina out of the house, a sharp shout filled with vigilance and uneasiness came from the house.
Hearing Uzumaki Kushina's sudden shout, the Anbu ninjas who were lurking nearby to protect the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki instantly appeared, with chakra ready to stare at Kiyoshi who was standing at the door of Uzumaki Kushina's house and was about to go forward and knock on the door.
"Sure enough! Malice perception!" Qingsi said to himself, but he was not surprised by this. "It seems that this Uzumaki Kushina can already use the power of the Nine-Tails!"
