Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 142 Generational Gap in War

Below the canyon.

The Sand Village ninjas, who had just finished a fierce battle, were sitting together in twos and threes, recovering.

A few lower-ranking ninjas were tasked with cleaning up the battlefield and collecting the corpses of their own ninjas.

"Sigh, why did we even bother chasing after those Kirigakure guys?"

"What nonsense are you spouting! These despicable Kirigakure lunatics attacked our wounded soldiers' camp!"

"That's not what I meant, but if we were to go to war with the Land of Water at the same time..."

However, the words of this Sand Villager aroused the dissatisfaction of his colleagues.

"So what! We still managed to drive back those Konoha scum!"

"Tch, wouldn't it be easier to just wipe out all these Hidden Mist creatures?"

"I heard that this pursuit was Lord Yekura's own decision?"

"Shut up! Is that something you should be saying?!"

The passing Sand Village Jonin appeared to be stopping his subordinates from gossiping, but neither his tone nor his expression betrayed any anger.

If that's how the superiors are, then the other Sand Village ninjas naturally care even less.

However, they didn't continue on this topic.

"Senior Shirasa, what exactly happened with that series of explosions on the cliff earlier?"

"Yeah, yeah, how many explosive tags would it take to create that kind of momentum? Otherwise, those Hidden Mist ninjas wouldn't have been able to escape."

Upon hearing his subordinate's question, the Jonin named Shirasa's mocking expression deepened.

"Didn't the Hidden Mist ninjas ambush us before? That explosion was the sound of Lady Pakura fighting them."

Upon hearing this, a puppeteer from Sunagakure seemed to remember something and spoke up as well.

"I remember, there was a flying guy who came down from the sky and wiped out Siluo and his entire squad."

"But with Lady Yekura's strength, she should be able to easily deal with the opponent, right? Why did she make such a commotion?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Sha could hardly contain her smile.

He nodded and said casually.

"That sound wasn't made by Lady Yekura; it was the noise produced by the flying Kirigakure ninjutsu."

"How is that possible!"

All the Sand Villagers sitting together looked at Baisha with astonishment.

"Impossible, right? I remember that flying Kirigakure ninja didn't look very old. How could someone so young be able to unleash such powerful ninjutsu?"

"Hehe, the most interesting part is yet to come!"

"Captain, stop keeping me in suspense. Just tell me already!"

Bai Shaang put down the kettle and looked at the guys staring at him with disdain.

"I've only heard about what happened next. I heard the enemy was just a kid, but even against such an opponent, our Lord Yecang still managed to escape."

"What! They actually escaped?"

"What a pity. I thought Lady Yecang's intervention would be foolproof. Are all these young guys this powerful these days?"

"Perhaps it's not that the enemy is powerful, but..."

However, before the Sand Village residents could continue their discussion on this topic, a sharp whooshing sound suddenly rang out from the sky.

What was that sound?

"Was it an attacker?"

Just as all the Sand Village residents stood up and began to look around.

"Watch out for enemy attack!!"

A Sand Villager who happened to be looking up at the sky suddenly shouted out.

But before he could finish speaking, a strangely shaped, umbrella-like object landed with a "thud" in the middle of the crowd.

The Sand Villagers didn't have time to think much before they immediately drew their weapons to prepare for defense.

But the umbrella-shaped ninja tool opened its umbrella the moment it hit the ground and immediately began to spin rapidly.

In an instant, countless books hidden inside the "umbrellas" shot out, like machine guns firing wildly through the crowd.

"Whoosh whoosh-"

Countless thousands of books splashed out.

A large number of Sand Village ninjas who were chatting and laughing just moments before were riddled with holes by this sudden attack.

But that wasn't the end of it. Several more round bombs fell from the sky, triggering a series of violent explosions.

Flying over the canyon once more, Tachibana Kenkawa dropped the last bomb into the relatively densely populated area below.

Another group of bewildered Sand Village ninjas were knocked down by the blast.

These strange and bizarre equipment were naturally looted by Jianchuan Ju from the armory of the Sky Ninja battleship.

I originally wanted to take it back to the village and collect it, or keep it for my own research.

It’s a pity that the amount of blue pills Jianchuan Ju took today was a bit excessive, so in order to save chakra, he had to reluctantly use up these weapons.

However, it must be said that these gadgets invented by the air ninjas are indeed suitable for launching air raids.

After casually tossing down a few kunai with explosive tags attached, and looking at the chaotic scene in Sunagakure below, Tachibana Kenkawa took the submachine gun he was carrying from his back.

But at this time, the Sand Village ninja finally came to his senses and noticed where the attack came from.

"Up in the sky! They're Hidden Mist ninjas!"

"There's only one enemy there!"

"Heh, you have pretty good eyesight. You can tell I'm a Kirigakure ninja even when I'm flying this high."

Jianchuan Ju naturally heard the shouts from below, but she didn't expect to be recognized so soon after finishing the bombing and before she even started to descend.

"Prepare to counterattack!"

Seeing that Tachibana Kenkawa dared to launch a surprise attack on the Sunagakure forces with only one person, the Sunagakure ninja below immediately launched a counterattack in a fit of rage.

However, when Kenkawa Tachibana looked at the Sand Villagers on the ground, struggling to throw kunai at him, he found it rather laughable.

Without any intention of dodging, Jianchuan Ju quickly swooped down.

The airflow generated by the flapping of the 'Wings of Gale' alone was enough to scatter all the incoming kunai.

"Da da da da~"

The pleasant sound of machine guns rang out again, instantly taking away the lives of many Sand Village residents.

"This is an overwhelming disparity in military strength."

At this moment, Tachibana Kanagawa also understood why those Sky Ninjas, who were clearly pitifully weak, were generally so arrogant.

Looking down from the air at those helpless enemies below is indeed quite captivating.

Just as Jianchuan Ju was feeling smug.

Suddenly, he saw five Sand Village ninjas wielding huge folding fans staring at him with fierce eyes.

At the same time, the "danger prediction" in Tachibana Kenkawa's mind also issued an alarm in a timely manner.

"Wind Release: Net"

With a loud shout from the leading ninja, all the Sand Village members, each wielding a folding fan, vigorously swung their giant fans, creating a gust of wind.

A massive net of wind, composed of countless slender wind blades arranged in a cross shape, rapidly enveloped him.

It was clearly intended to strangle itself within this net of wind while it was flying in mid-air.

"Damn, we really shouldn't have been too arrogant. The destruction of the Kong Ninja nation was entirely justified!"
