Starting from the roots of Konoha, they were the masterminds behind the scenes.

Chapter 32 The Battle of Jonin! (Please read on, vote, and give monthly tickets!)

"Not for now."

Xingxia Xiu shook her head.

He's a bit crazy now, but not so crazy that he thinks the current Root team can take on the entire Sky Ninja Village.

Otherwise, Danzo wouldn't have needed to use this slow, blood-draining method to deal with the Sky Ninja Village; he could have just gone straight for the heart of the enemy.

If we call for reinforcements now, then forces will continuously gather here.

Ultimately, it turned into a large-scale battle, which was detrimental to the roots.

Hideaki Hoshino knew that his methods would anger the Sky Ninja Village, but even so, the Sky Ninja Village couldn't send too many forces over.

It will at least be within a range that he can tolerate.

Moreover, Hoshino Hide had no intention of lingering here with the Sky Ninja Village.

Everything was for the purpose of better infiltrating the Sky Ninja Village.

While Aburame was busy at first, Hoshinobu leaped to the top of the tree, bathed in the moonlight, and gazed in the direction of the Sky Ninja Village.

His suggestion was to gradually deplete the Sky Ninja Village's manpower and continuously bleed it dry.

But if he just kills a few more Sky Ninjas like other Root ninjas, wouldn't that make him seem too ordinary?

How can he remain the number one figure after Danzo within the Root sect?

The code name "A" is somewhat misleading.

So, we have to go big!

Step by step, determine your position at the root.

If there are similar missions in the future, then Xingxia Xiu will be a key figure in that area.

This time, he didn't have the leadership of the other Root ninjas.

Becoming the number one member of Root under Danzo is still a long way off!

Because he was in an environment where he could fight at any moment, and because he was in a state of "mental abnormality," Xingxia Xiu did not create a clone to cultivate.

To avoid splitting up and causing any more trouble.

If someone were bold enough to storm into the Sky Ninja Village to assassinate the Sky Ninja leader, that would be disastrous.

If it weren't for his previous mental abnormality giving him the inspiration to teleport, Xingxiaxiu would definitely have assessed this state as the worst possible condition.

Silent all night.

The sun rises in the east.

As the town recovered, panic began to spread.

The corpses of the four Sky Ninja were hung in the center of the town's streets.

The most panicked was the nobleman who was robbed yesterday.

Upon receiving the news, he didn't even dare to eat breakfast and led a few samurai straight to the Sky Ninja Village.

Only the Sky Ninja Village can give him a sense of security now.

All of this was under the surveillance of Aburame Hiichi.

In the forest.

After learning that the town's nobles had gone to the Sky Ninja Village, Hoshino Hide and the others began to make preparations.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

Aburame Hideichi's insects brought back information once again.

The Sky Ninja has arrived!

There were a total of twelve people in three teams this time.

After waiting for nearly twenty more minutes, Hoshino Hide gestured to Inuzuka Ryo and the others behind him.

The enemy is coming!

However, this group of air ninjas was clearly more cautious and had more strength than yesterday's group.

Just as they were about to enter the trap area set by Star Show.

The Sky Ninjas suddenly stopped in unison, and then Hoshino Shu saw four Sky Ninjas standing on tree branches forming hand seals.

This is... Wind Release!

Use wind magic to destroy the trap.

The thought flashed through his mind, and Hoshino immediately warned Inuzuka Ryo and the others behind him: Be careful and take cover!

In less than two seconds, the air ninja completed the hand seals. The four of them opened their mouths and exhaled, causing a surge of air that then exploded with a roar, creating a raging storm.

Amidst the storm, numerous incredibly sharp wind blades were mixed in, cleaving large trees in two wherever they passed.

The numerous traps originally hidden in the dense forest were also destroyed by this massive storm, rendering Hoshino and the others' arrangements almost useless.

The four members of Hoshino, who had originally been hiding behind the trees, had to change their positions to avoid being hit by the wind blades or blown away by the gale.

The storm lasted for a full minute.

After they stopped, a huge clearing had appeared in what was once a dense forest.

"action!"

A ninja with a thick beard gave the order.

His name is Chunshu, and he is a Jonin from the Sky Ninja Village.

Xingxia Xiu also noticed the person who gave the order.

To shoot a man, shoot a horse first; to capture a thief, capture the king first!

When outnumbered, the biggest threat must be eliminated first.

Hiding behind a large tree that hadn't been cut down by the wind blades, Hoshino took out two shuriken, blew on them, and imbued them with the nature transformation of wind release chakra.

He then emerged from behind the tree, swung his arms, and sent two shuriken flying from the side straight toward the air ninja.

"Be careful!"

The latest novel is first published here!

The air ninja shouted, and several air ninjas threw out their shuriken in an attempt to intercept, but they were all deflected.

The few ninjas could only leap away to avoid it.

Boom boom boom!

The thick tree trunk was severed by Hoshino Shigehisa's shuriken and crashed to the ground.

As the shuriken was thrown, Hoshinoshige Hideaki drew his sword and charged forward.

Ding ding ding!

The clang of metal rang out, and a few flashes of light appeared under the stars. The person had already passed through a squad of Sky Ninja on the left. With a swing of the sword, six wind blades whistled out, heading straight for the Sky Ninja Jonin, Harutoku.

At the same time, Xingxia Xiu formed a hand seal with his left hand, and his skin hardened.

Several shuriken thrown by the air ninjas landed on him but were all deflected.

Earth Release-Earth Spear!

Ignores physical attacks.

"spread!"

Chunshu shouted, and the four Kongren immediately scattered. Their wind blades landed, cutting deep marks.

As Chun Shu landed on a tree stump, the hand seal was completed, and he opened his mouth to spew out flames, the fire wave sweeping towards Xing Xia Xiu who was charging towards him.

Xingxia Xiu continued his fierce charge, but this time he wielded his sword with one hand. With a single slash, a massive wind blade cleaved the wave of fire in two.

At the same time, he formed a hand seal with his left hand, which had previously spread out and was about to attack. The three air ninjas who had just landed were immediately bound by vines that emerged from the ground.

Spring Tsukiya is also a target of Wood Release attacks.

However, Xingxia Xiu's speed was significantly slower when he used one hand to form hand seals and attacked four targets simultaneously.

Chun Shu, being a Jonin, reacted extremely quickly, using the Body Flicker Technique to avoid the vines' entanglement.

But while in the air, one also encounters a show under the stars.

Or rather, the Wood Release technique was merely a feint against Spring Release.

Ding ding ding!

The two ninja swords clashed at high speed, sparks flying, and the two figures fought their way from mid-air to the ground.

The moment he landed, Chun Shu let out a muffled groan as he took a heavy kick from Xing Xia Xiu. His body tumbled and flew out, and at the same time, he threw out a smoke grenade.

Bang!

The smoke bomb exploded, and thick smoke enveloped Xingxiaxiu.

But then the smoke parted, and the ninja sword shot out, piercing through the flying Harutsuki.

Bang!

Chun Shu's body collapsed and turned into soil on the ground, but then he emerged from the ground and quickly formed hand seals.

At this moment, two Sky Ninjas on the right shook off Inuzuka Ryo and Aburame Hiichi, and simultaneously completed hand seals. One used Wind Release and the other used Fire Release, and the raging flames engulfed the thick smoke in front.

Just as Chun Shu was preparing his ninjutsu, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately shouted, "Watch out!"

shhhhhh!

A dense cacophony of whooshing sounds filled the air.

Chun Shu abandoned the hand seals and rolled over. A wooden splinter came whistling from the side, tearing his clothes and pinning him to the ground.

The two air ninjas who used ninjutsu didn't have the quick reaction time, and each of them was pierced through the body by a wooden spike.

Coming from the side, which was the direction the Sky Ninja originally came from, Hoshino Hide raised one hand, and the wooden spikes inside the two Sky Ninja immediately forked and grew.

Blood splattered, and a piercing scream shattered the sky.

As the flames swept across the area, Hoshino Shizuka, behind the wooden wall, leaped up, each hand wielding a Rasengan, and engaged in close combat with Harunoku, who sprang into the air.
