Starting from the root of Konoha, he was the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 53: Xingxia Xiu VS Yan Shinobi! (Seeking follow-up recommendation votes and monthly votes)

"Of course we can report this to the Sandaime and Danzo-sama and wait for their decision."

"But the Iwagakure won't wait for us."

"If they dare to pretend to be Rain Ninja to ambush us, they dare to pretend to be us and target Rain Ninja Village again."

Xingxia Xiu said firmly: "We have already grasped the initiative, but if we give it up, we will fall into the passive position again."

Daichi Shimura and Ye Juan Minamura remained silent. Although they felt that Hoshita Hide was too radical, what he said made sense.

At this time, Xing Xiaxiu said again: "I am not asking for your opinions when I say this, but giving orders!"

He glanced at everyone and asked, "Who's in favor, who's against?"

Inuzuka Ryo and Aburame Ryoma immediately raised their hands in agreement.

Then the Anbu team also raised their hands.

The members of the other two teams all looked at their captains.

Meicun Yejuan smiled bitterly to herself and raised her hand.

Shimura Daichi raised his hand: "A, what you said does make sense."

Xingxia Xiu nodded with satisfaction: "Very good."

"Then take action!"

shhhhhh!
Meicun Yejuan and the other three were the first to perform the instant body technique and disappeared from the woods.

Next came the ANBU team, who packed up Kamishiro Takeshi and took him away.

Hoshita Hide and others sealed the body of the Iwagakure ninja into a scroll, and then took the surviving Iwagakure ninja and headed straight to the Rain Village.

Less than a quarter of an hour had passed since Xingxia Xiu and the others left.

Ninjas dressed as Rain Ninjas suddenly appeared on the battlefield and surveyed the area.

After a moment, someone said, "Captain, it seems the operation has indeed failed!"

"What to do next?"

Changgu, the captain, asked, "How many enemies are there?"

"At least twelve people!"

"Because of this forest, some traces are still there, and it can be seen that they split into three groups."

"The team responsible for the caravan's safety is heading east, probably back to Konoha."

"There is another group, most likely going to the Rain Village."

Chang Gu's eyes fixed, his expression becoming serious: "Ramen Village..."

"It seems that not only has the mission failed, but the identity has also been exposed."

"We must intercept them!"

"Chase!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the person disappeared from the spot.

Immediately afterwards, the others used the technique of instant body movement to catch up, turning into afterimages under the rain curtain and heading straight towards the Rain Village at the fastest speed.

And just after they left, Xingxia Xiu walked out of the tree and then turned into a big tree.

Wood clone!
……

Under the rain, Xing Xiaxiu, who was on his way, paused for a moment, but it was because he received the memory feedback from Mu's clone.

"You guys go ahead, the Iwa Ninja is catching up."

Xingxia Xiu stopped.

Shimura Daichi paused for a moment, then continued forward: "Understood!"

After watching Inuzuka Ling and his group disappear under the rain, Xingxia Xiu immediately formed a seal and turned into a weed on the roadside, swaying with the wind and rain.

Not long after.

Figures came through the sky one after another.

When the last person whizzed past, Xingxiaxiu suddenly jumped up.

"Who?"

The attacked Iwagakure was startled, but reacted quickly, turning around to fight back, but Xingxia Xiu twisted his arms and kicked him in the chest, causing him to spit blood and fly backwards.

Immediately afterwards, a wooden thorn flew out.

"Enemy attack!"

"careful!"

The Iwagakure ninjas running in front reacted one after another. One of them turned around and opened his hand to catch the person who was kicked away by Xingxia Xiu, but was immediately pierced by the wooden spikes.

The next moment, forked thorns burst from their bodies, blood splattered, and shrill screams tore through the rain.

Rumble!
There were lightning and thunder, and the rain suddenly increased in intensity.

Xing Xiaxiu stepped over the two corpses and the knife flashed.

An Iwagakure dressed as a Rain Ninja fell into the mud with his eyes wide open, holding a kunai in his right hand and covering his neck with his left hand. The gushing blood quickly dyed the soil red and was then washed away by the rain.

What a quick knife!

But he only blocked one.

After killing the third person, Xingxia Xiu was greeted by rock bullets that suddenly expanded in the air, and sharp rock spikes that rose from the ground and spread out rapidly.

Ground attack, air blockade, nowhere to escape.

But Xingxia Xiu did not stop, and the short knife in his left hand was infused with wind chakra and flew out, cutting a rock bullet and piercing the chest of an Iwagakure ninja who was making a seal.

After the short knife flew out, Xing Xiaxiu formed a seal with his left hand.

Just as he was about to be pierced by the rock spikes, wooden vines suddenly rose from the ground under Xing Xiaxiu's feet. One of them lifted Xing Xiaxiu up and quickly flew into the air.

The other vines were like wooden shields. Rock bullets hit them, making crackling sounds and sending wood chips flying.

With the support of the wooden vine, Xingxiaxiu leaped up and appeared next to the person who was stabbed to death by the dagger.

He drew his sword, and the body flew up, heading straight for an Iwagakure.

"asshole!"

The Iwagakure roared at the sight of his companion's body flying towards him, but the Iwagakure next to him calmly shouted, "Scatter!"

The two men dodged, and the next moment, the corpse exploded, with broken limbs and countless pieces of flesh and bones flying everywhere.

The ground rumbled.

The ground around him rose, and at the same time, huge rocks fell from the sky and hit Xingxiaxiu.

Xing Xiaxiu swung his sword, and the wind blade shot up into the sky, cutting the falling boulder into countless pieces of falling gravel.

However, just as he was about to jump out of this sunken area, thick and sharp stone pillars grew out from the rising stone walls around him.

Rumble!
Xing Xiaxiu leaped up, brandishing his two swords, and the sharp wind blades cut off the stone pillars one by one, and his body continued to rush upwards.

But one after another, the Rock Ninjas appeared and attacked from a high position.

Rock bullets, stone sticks, stone spikes, water streams, shurikens, detonating talismans...dense attacks whizzed towards us.

Ding-ding-ding-ding!

Rumble!
Xing Xiaxiu's upward momentum was interrupted, and the intensive attacks also caused his body to fall continuously.

The hooded robe was torn to pieces, revealing the vest armor underneath and the hardened black skin.

Suddenly, the light above my head dimmed.

Xingxiaxiu saw a large amount of rubble rolling down.

The Iwagakure is going to bury him!
"Sure enough, relying solely on wind escape and swordsmanship is no match for these rock ninjas!"

Xingxiaxiu sighed secretly.

If it was Hatake Sakumo, he should have already killed him, right?

Putting away the knife, Xing Xiaxiu clasped his hands together and formed the Si seal.

Wood escape - the birth of the tree world!

Vines sprouted from the ground, growing and spreading rapidly in all directions.

All attacks were blocked, and Xing Xiaxiu's figure continued to move upwards along with the growing vines.

The Iwagakure ninjas on the "shore" were all horrified at the sight of the swarming green.

At this moment, Changgu finally understood what was going on with the battlefield in the woods that he had previously thought was a bit abrupt.

It's the secret technique of Wood Release!
Konoha's Wood Release experiment was successful!

"spread!"

Changgu shouted.

However, as soon as an Iwagakure ninja rose up, his legs were entangled by vines, and he was smashed to the ground with a bang.

Immediately afterwards, the ground cracked and the Rock Ninja who fell to the ground was immediately submerged by vines.

The newly raised stone walls were torn apart by growing vines.

The cracked earth was covered and drowned by trees.

The woods quickly covered the clearing, changing the terrain to trap all the Iwagakure ninjas within.

The dancing vines made it impossible for many Rock Ninjas to form hand seals or perform earth escape techniques to change the terrain. They could only keep leaping and dodging in an attempt to escape.
