The days of being a puppeteer in Konoha

Chapter 259 The real killing move

Although he was extremely conflicted, Hiashi did not stop what he was doing.

He was constantly firing various energy bullets to interrupt the Iwagakure ninja's hand seals and buy more time for Choza.

With the concerted efforts of everyone, the guerrilla tactics centered on Ding Zuo finally succeeded several times.

Although the enemy had gained experience in dealing with the situation later, Ding Zuo could only harass them and it was difficult to cause actual casualties.

However, the Iwagakure troops were pinned down and unable to move for quite some time, which was considered a considerable success strategically.

At this moment, in a dark and spacious cave...

Hideki looked at the rock pillar covered with detonating talismans in front of him and suddenly smiled:
"Preparations are complete and the plan is entering the final stage."

"Ding Zuo, you can use your last trick!"

"Great!"

Ding Zuo said in a breathless voice,

"If you don't finish it, I can't hold on any longer..."

It turned out that at this time, the Iwagakure ninja had already used ninjutsu such as Doryubi to build a wall-like defense around the convoy, leaving Ding Zuo with no chance to take advantage.

Therefore, those senior ninjas can free up their hands and form a team to hunt down Ding Zuo.

Faced with the attacks of several jonin, even Inuzuka Jaw and Wangcai could only avoid their attacks and stay away.

If it weren't for Hiashi's long-distance support, Ding Zuo would have been killed by the enemy long ago.

So when he heard that he could finally enter the next stage, Ding Zuo activated the last mechanism of his combat suit without hesitation.

Countless pitch-black caltrops flew out from the black ball, were quickly left behind, and flew towards the pursuers behind.

"Hmph, a mere trifle... Wait, this is!"

A Iwagakure jonin used a kunai to block a caltrop, only to find that there were strange rune patterns drawn on it, and it was activated by the collision.

Although he didn't know how to seal, the big word "explosion" on it still looked very familiar to him...

Boom!

The detonator on the caltrops exploded, blowing away the nearby caltrops, triggering this chain reaction repeatedly.

For a moment, the forest was filled with roars and flames.

Ding Zuo, who had escaped the ambush, immediately rushed towards the convoy again and continued to do the same thing, throwing the few remaining explosive caltrops at the earth wall.

Rumble!
Even the earth was shaking continuously. Of course, the solid earth wall could not withstand such heavy bombardment and quickly collapsed, with rubble flying everywhere.

"Everyone, run!"

Faced with Ding Zuo's spherical natural disaster, the Iwagakure ninjas did not dare to confront it for the time being and could only flee in all directions.

Their hearts were bleeding as they watched several carriages being damaged by the explosion.

But they won't have to worry about that soon...

"General."

On the treetop not far away, Hideki, who had appeared there at some point, snapped his fingers lightly.

Then the next moment, the large area of ​​ground where the main body of the convoy was located suddenly cracked into spider-web-like cracks, and then quickly collapsed and fell.

"Ah ah ah ah..."

The screams of the Iwagakure ninjas and horses were mixed in with the sound of rocks and soil collapsing as they continued to fall.

Hideki was quite satisfied with the scene before him and complained quietly:

"As expected, the 99th Emperor of the Holy Britannia Empire never lied to me."

"The secret to winning with fewer people is to lift the floor..."

Yes, Hideki decided from the very beginning to use the ground-sinking tactic to inflict heavy damage on the Iwagakure ninja.

The guerrilla warfare centered on Ding Zuo is actually just a smokescreen.

The purpose was to slow down the enemy's march and cover up any possible ground tremors.

Because before that, he had actually been digging deep underground here, setting up large-scale ground traps.

Of course, with Hideki's limited chakra supply, he couldn't complete the task in a short time.

The real secret lies in the location.

When Hideki used a drone to explore the valley's surroundings, he had already paid special attention to a river. Because of the fact that the flow rate of the river suddenly decreased in a certain place upstream, Hideki had reason to suspect that it had branched into an underground river...

After changing the radar to geological detection mode for verification, it turned out to be just as he expected.

Things were much simpler after that.

First find the intersection of the underground river and the enemy's marching road as the ambush site.

With the help of Ding Zuo and his team, they quickly transformed the underground holes that had been eroded by the river for many years.

Finally, the timed detonating talismans were affixed to the remaining load-bearing columns, and a large-scale ground trap was ready...

Although with the ninja's ability to climb walls and fly over rooftops, those Iwagakure ninjas should be able to escape as long as they are not unlucky enough to be crushed to death by the rocks and soil.

But to dig out so many scattered supplies from such a deep hole, even for the Iwagakure ninja who is good at earth escape, it would probably take a lot of time.

It can be said that Hideki's task of delaying time has been perfectly completed.

But this time he has brought out so many of his hidden inventions, and of course he hopes to achieve success in one fell swoop.

So he actually has one last trick up his sleeve...

The drone that had been hanging high in the sky began to show light blue lines, and the storage technique inside was triggered remotely by Hideki.

Then there was a bang and white smoke exploded.

Then, a large number of kunai with detonating tags attached to them fell into the deep pit like raindrops...

"Money Release: Rain of Exploding Kunai."

Hideki's heart was bleeding.

"This time, we have used up all the detonating talismans we have accumulated over the years..."

"Although we have no hatred or grudges, I still ask you to stay here forever..."

Boom boom boom boom boom!

Countless explosions sounded repeatedly from the deep pit.

“We succeeded, we really succeeded!”

The cheers of Choza and Inuzuka Jaw rang out over the communicator.

However, Hideki's smile quickly froze.

Because according to his calculations, this type of trigger-type detonating kunai shouldn't explode that quickly...

If it wasn't his mistake, it meant that they hit something during the fall and were detonated prematurely.

At this moment, a terrifying roar of a monster suddenly sounded from the deep pit.

Hideki suddenly had a bad feeling.

"What a terrifying chakra... Could this be..."

Hizashi's slightly trembling voice also came from the communicator.

Hideki quickly flew forward, came to a closer treetop and looked into the deep pit...

As a result, his face darkened instantly.

Because at this time a huge creature similar to a white horse appeared in the deep pit.

It was its appearance that blocked all the explosive kunai.

But the most important thing is that there are five huge white tails behind it...

"The wind is tight, pull!"

Hideki quickly retreated and shouted into the communicator,

"Everyone evacuate quickly and gather at meeting point C!"

"What happened?"

Ding Zuo and Inuzuka Jaw also evacuated quickly, but since they couldn't see the situation in the deep pit, they couldn't help but ask about the specific situation.

"It's Gobi!"

Hideki said in a slightly bitter tone,

"I didn't expect that there was a Five-Tails Jinchuriki hidden in that convoy..."
