Just as the white freezing air completely covered the decapitation throwing knife, Naruto successfully summoned it back to his side first.
In their initial exchange, Naruto did not gain any significant advantage.
Not only were their weapons almost imprisoned, but Zabuza was also released.
After Zabuza escaped far enough, Haku had no more worries and began to attack Naruto and the others.
"Rain of Ice Crystals"
Bai's mouth opened slightly, and countless blue ice needles with a hardness comparable to steel shot out from it.
These ice needles, merely flying through the air, froze the grass on the ground and covered the surrounding leaves with frost.
Earth escape·Earth flow wall
Face Release: Hardened Face Wall Technique
Kakashi and Sakura simultaneously activated defensive ninjutsu, protecting their teammates behind them.
They couldn't hide, mainly because of Dazner, who was holding them back.
Blue ice needles struck the earthen and concrete walls with the force of machine gun bullets, sending dirt and dough flying everywhere.
"I'll deal with this ice-style ninja. You guys protect Mr. Tazuna."
Kakashi pulled up his headband again, revealing his Sharingan, and used Earth Release to dive underground.
The surface was covered in icy attacks, but the underground environment was kept at a constant temperature.
Kakashi successfully reached Haku's feet, used Earth Release: Mind Decapitation Technique to suddenly break through the soil beneath Haku's feet, and grabbed his ankle.
However, the moment Kakashi grabbed Shiro's ankle, a terrifying chill quickly spread from the point of contact between the two towards Kakashi.
In the blink of an eye, all the blood in Kakashi's palm froze, and his muscles died.
Kakashi felt as if he had grabbed a piece of scorching steel, yelled, and withdrew his hand.
The skin on his palms had been completely torn off, and blood clung to his pale calves, making it look extremely gruesome.
Bai smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you, my body temperature is always maintained at -270 degrees Celsius, close to absolute zero. Direct contact with me is not a good choice!"
Kakashi's hands were frozen stiff, making it impossible for him to even form hand seals. He was now trapped in the mud, unable to get out or go back, and was suddenly in great danger.
Fortunately, Sasuke and the others did not heed Kakashi's warning to hide.
After Haku and Kakashi stopped their ice needle attack, Sasuke controlled the metallic elements underground to form a small ball and attacked Haku.
With a single outstretched hand, Bai created an ice wall more than a meter thick in front of him, intercepting the metal ball whose kinetic energy was comparable to that of a sniper bullet.
Ice Release: Dragon-Slaying Tiger
After intercepting the metal bullet, the ice wall in front of Bai collapsed, and an ice sculpture of a fierce tiger rose from the ice.
The ice tiger was incredibly lifelike, exhaling icy breath and moving with incredible agility as it roared and charged toward Sasuke.
"Electric Current Propelled Lava Fist"
Sasuke's cells rubbed together at high speed, generating enormous heat. Sasuke, his body steaming with steam, was like an active volcano.
He punched the Ice Tiger, creating flames from the friction of the air. With the help of the high temperature, he shattered the Ice Tiger's head, melting it into a puddle of warm water.
Sasuke then unleashed Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique, sending a massive fireball hurtling towards Haku like the sun, completely disregarding Kakashi's safety in the mud.
Fortunately, Sakura used her Mask Release technique in time, turning the soil around Kakashi into dough and controlling it to save him, thus preventing him from being burned to death.
The Fireball attack is very slow.
After creating a layer of ice under his feet, Bai casually slid away, dodging the fireball as if he were ice skating.
Sasuke, enveloped in steam and red light, approached Haku and punched him in the face.
Sasuke's body temperature is very high, so brief contact with his white skin will not cause frostbite.
Haku is merely a clone. Even an ice clone has its limits in terms of resistance to attacks. Once Sasuke hits it, the clone will only collapse.
Of all those present, only Sasuke could fight Haku's clone in close combat.
With a body temperature close to absolute zero, Shiro is the nemesis of physical techniques and also the nemesis of masked techniques.
Neither Naruto nor Sakura could easily harm Haku's clones.
Bai hurriedly created an ice wall obstacle in front of him.
However, Sasuke controlled the metal ball under his feet, using it as a stepping stone to instantly change the direction of his attack, avoiding the ice wall and successfully shattering Haku's head with a single punch.
The white head melted, turning into a large block of solid ice that fell to the ground.
"it's over!"
Sasuke landed and turned around gracefully.
Sakura suddenly shouted, "Sasuke, watch out!"
Be careful? Be careful of what? The clone got smashed and should have disappeared by now!
Could it be that the enemy has revealed themselves?
Sasuke quickly turned around and saw a scene that surprised him.
From within the continuously melting and collapsing ice clones, a mechanical core radiating intense chakra fluctuations was revealed.
The mechanical core provided the ice clone with a massive amount of chakra. The ice clone, which should have collapsed, was slowly repaired under the maintenance of the chakra. The melted water also turned back into ice, completely repairing the clone.
"What is this thing? Can a clone also be repaired?"
Sasuke was shocked, seeing a clone that could repair itself for the first time, so much so that he forgot to finish off the enemy.
Haku only used clones to fight the Konoha ninjas, which was not because he was arrogant, but because he had great confidence in the strength of his clones.
He took out the core of the chakra armor and implanted it into his clone using a special technique, so that even if the clone was destroyed, it could be reassembled with the help of the core.
The existence of the core compensates for the weakness of the clones' low defense.
This clone, with its transplanted chakra core, possesses formidable ice-style ninjutsu and an indestructible body, making it capable of reaching Kage-level strength.
The only way to kill Bai's clone is to destroy its core first.
However, when the core was repairing the ice clone, it was constantly moving within the clone.
In other words, this fist-sized core does not have a fixed location, and unless all of Bai's clones are destroyed, it is very difficult to hit the core.
Chapter 357 Forbidden Ice Release Technique
Destroying the core within the white clone is difficult for other ninjas, but not so difficult for Sasuke.
Sasuke's Sharingan can see through Haku's clones and see the core containing a massive amount of chakra.
It can also sense the location of metal components within this clone through magnetic field induction.
Once Sasuke regained his senses, he didn't hesitate to throw another punch at Haku, this time aiming for Haku's core.
"Ice Release: Ice Crystal Fortress"
Having learned his lesson, Haku hurriedly used an all-around defensive ice-style ninjutsu to create a spherical ice crystal fortress, completely protecting himself inside.
Sasuke relentlessly attacked the massive ice crystal fortress, punching it again and again until the defense, which was as hard as steel, shook violently.
Naruto and Sakura also came to help Sasuke attack the ice crystal fortress.
The addition of Rasengan and Mask Release made the Ice Crystal Fortress even more precarious.
Hiding in the fortress, Haku seized this moment to unleash a super S-rank ninjutsu that would result in mutual destruction.
Bai's clone knew very well that once his core was exposed, the opponent would definitely find an opportunity to destroy it.
His clone was destined to be destroyed by the ninjas of Konoha, so he might as well go all out and use his ultimate move to kill all the ninjas of Konoha, thus eliminating any worries for his main body.
Haku's chakra shot out from its core, piercing through the ice crystal fortress and into the clouds above everyone's heads.
Chakra condensed the water vapor in the high altitude into ice, and countless ice crystals formed a giant ice ball.
'Ice Release: Ice Star Descent'
The ice balls, each the size of a hot air balloon, plummeted to the ground, crashing around Naruto and the others like exploding cannonballs. The shards of ice scattered like bullets, leaving the surrounding forest in ruins.
A ten-ton ice star hurtled down on Naruto's head.
Naruto leaped high into the air, holding a giant Rasengan in his hand, instantly shattering the ice star into dust.
Sasuke unleashed the Railgun, continuously shattering the massive ice star.
Bai's ultimate move was so easily neutralized by the three of them.
Then Haku used a move similar to Ice Age, but Sakura used a dust explosion technique to fill the battlefield with flames, thus neutralizing the invasion of the cold air.
Haku's two killing moves failed to achieve the desired effect, and he finally realized that Naruto and his two junior ninjas were no ordinary genin.
In order to stifle Konoha's genius here and to avoid revealing his own existence, Haku gritted his teeth and used a forbidden technique of super S-rank.
Haku's chakra has been spreading through the clouds ever since he released the Ice Star.
The chakra that has been accumulating in the clouds has been enough to unleash that forbidden technique.
Haku's chakra began to influence a cumulus cloud, a cloud about three thousand meters high, filled entirely with tiny water droplets.
Chakra frantically draws in the surrounding moisture and fills the clouds, then quickly freezes the moisture within the clouds.
After being frozen by the white, the huge cumulus cloud became a massive ice block, three kilometers long, two kilometers wide, and one kilometer thick, or rather, a huge ice and snow continent.
Water vapor can float in the sky, but when all the water vapor condenses into huge blocks of ice, it begins to fall with a crash under the influence of gravity.
The sight of the colossal ice block falling from the sky was even more terrifying than Madara Uchiha's Heavenly Meteor.
After all, the meteorite created by the Tianai Zhenxing was only three or four hundred meters in diameter, and its volume was less than one-tenth of that of the ice block that was over three thousand meters long.
The weight of the colossal ice block, and the force of its impact upon landing.
It's no exaggeration to say that it's roughly equivalent to ten aircraft carriers crashing to the ground.
Even if Naruto were only at the first stage of the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, or even at the third stage, it would be difficult for him to withstand this giant ice block.
The third stage of the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts can defend against the beating of the True Thousand Hands, but the power of the True Thousand Hands is still inferior to that of ten aircraft carriers falling from a height of three thousand meters.
Naruto and his companions, who were attacking the Ice Crystal Fortress, were terrified when they saw the massive ice block that covered three kilometers of sky.
