Traveling through Naruto with Heroes of Might and Magic.

Despite being an elite Jonin-level ninja, he suddenly launched an attack while asking questions.

Several explosive bullets, imbued with Explosion Release chakra, were hurled towards Qingwu.

Qingwu stomped its foot, and the dense roots blocking its way were blasted to pieces.

Taking this opportunity, Hunti immediately instructed Iwagakure to use the Heavy Rock Technique to create a "gravity field" to control Seigo's actions.

Hunting had already learned from his subordinates that Wenya used this tactic to deal with the Shadow Guard.

However, Qingwu only flashed a faint light on his body as the transparent intermediate-level magic [Purification] was activated, instantly breaking free from the gravity field.

Just then, a dozen arrows flew out of the forest with a 'whoosh, whoosh, whoosh' sound, instantly shooting down more than a dozen Iwa ninja outside the encirclement.

Qingwu's face lit up with joy as he recognized that these were arrows specifically for the Great Elf.

It turned out that after he and Wenya fell off the waterfall, the remaining great elves did not expose themselves to the public like the centaurs and dwarves.

As a Tier 3 unit, the Archeel may have a slight edge in intelligence.

They habitually hid in the dense forest in their "home ground," and only when they saw their lord fighting did they instinctively offer their support.

With the support of ranged units, Qingwu fought much more aggressively.

He first cast the Bloodlust spell on the high elves to increase their attack speed, then summoned dwarves to cast Protective Shield.

The perilous situation that threatened to wipe out Konoha was instantly reversed...

Chapter 95 The Price of Enraging the "Shadow"!

"Boom boom boom—!!"

The dwarf wielded his warhammer, and his earth-shattering strike, combined with his sturdy body, shattered the Rock Hidden's formation.

The Great Elf's ranged attacks caused further damage.

Hunting eyes were bloodshot, and he used his explosive technique to blast the two dwarves into pieces.

However, Qingwu kept her eyes on him.

Within the Rock Concealment Formation, only Hunter possesses the power to instantly kill a dwarf.

Soon, Qingwu used the instantaneous nature of the [Slow Spell] and [Magic Arrow] to engage in a fierce battle with Shou.

Qingwu's natural energy has surged, allowing him to unleash his magical skills without restraint, much to Shou's frustration, to the point of almost vomiting blood.

Seeing that the number of troops he brought was dwindling, while the Konoha side had suffered almost no losses since Qingwu appeared, Shari's eyes darted around, and he once again considered leaving.

His explosive escape technique is actually best suited for surprise attacks.

Once entangled with someone of similar strength, it becomes difficult to unleash one's full potential.

"Kid, your growth rate is indeed astonishing, but you can't guard against me forever."

Upon hearing this, Qingwu instantly understood: "Don't even think about running away!"

He summoned the centaurs all at once and began to quickly reap lives while the Iwagakure formation was disrupted.

"Hehe." Hunti looked unconcerned. "You can raid my Iwagakure base, and so can I. I'll show you the power of Explosion Release when used to assault a base."

Kari is probably the weakest elite Jonin in Iwagakure; he's far inferior to Bunya.

The main reason he was promoted to an elite Jonin by the Tsuchikage Onoki was that his Explosion Release was very suitable for destruction!

Having suffered repeated defeats at the hands of Konoha's Shadow Guard, Kari hardened his resolve. If he wanted the Tsuchikage to forgive his mistakes, he had to atone for them by performing meritorious service.

With this in mind, Gari no longer hesitated. Taking advantage of the fact that the Iwagakure troops were still fighting, he was about to use his most proficient technique of underground evacuation to escape.

Just then, Qingwu looked up as if sensing something.

He saw his two Pegasus horses, and then he saw the withered tree guards that the Pegasus horses had "brought" with them.

"Mumu..."

Qingwu was dumbfounded; this scene was clearly completely unexpected.

Kariya saw the Pegasus. Knowing how troublesome a creature with a sprinting speed close to a ninja's Body Flicker Technique could be, he immediately burrowed into the ground without stopping.

"Get out here!"

Qingwu realized what was happening and stomped hard on the ground.

Countless roots interfered with the hunting creature's underwater navigation.

However, the number and power of the roots of the Chinese parasol tree can only reach this level.

Hunt emerged from a distance with a chilling chuckle, and with a provocative landmine punch, blasted the two centaurs into pieces before sinking into the ground.

"come out!!"

Qingwu was furious and kept using the extremely fast-paced [Root Entanglement], along with the wide-range [Slow Spell].

However, just like last time, Shou moved through the underground with ease, dodging the roots released by Qingwu and going deeper into the earth.

"boom--!!"

Just then, the withered tree guard descended from the sky, crushing several rock ninja to death, and at the same time, it seemed to sense the lord's anger.

"Crack crack crack—!!"

The entire lower half of the deadwood guard was buried in the ground.

Then, seemingly endless roots swept over the terrified hunter, covering him completely.

"No--!!"

Having reached the depths of the earth, the beast roared in frustration, trying to break free from the binding of the thick roots, but it was too late. Crack! Crack! Crack!

A moment later, the tightly wrapped hunter was "dug" out from the ground.

Seeing only his spiky hair showing, Qingwu's anger turned into laughter, "Haha, you dare run again!"

Shou glared fiercely at Qingwu, then looked back at the withered wood guard with resentment.

If it weren't for this guy...

The withered tree guardian seemed to smile in its emerald eyes, its roots gently patting the back of the green parasol tree, as if to say, "I was so worried about you."

Qingwu reached out and touched the roots of the withered tree guardian. "Mumu, you're still the most reliable one."

He never expected the Deadwood Guardian to arrive in this way.

After a little thought, everything became clear.

Mumu must have learned that he was being hunted down after seeing Xiyan and Tianzang return.

Moved, Qingwu approached and rubbed his face against the dry bark of the dead tree, and the emerald green pupils of the dead tree guardian softened.

"Kill them!"

A moment later, Qingwu raised his head and pointed at the remaining dozens of Iwagakure members in the arena, then walked towards the glaring Hunter.

"you--"

Shou seemed about to say something threatening, but Qingwu didn't give him a chance to speak, and sneered—

The bitter pill was used to slit the hunter's throat.

"Ho..."

"Ho-"

Blood splattered everywhere, and Shou reluctantly breathed his last.

At the same time, the roots of the withered tree guardian released the lifeless hunter and transformed into cannons, indiscriminately attacking the remaining rock ninja.

"Magic Arrow!"

"The Slowing Technique!"

"A bloodthirsty magic!"

"Heal the wounds!"

Once it becomes a hero unit, the Deadwood Guardian can share the Lord's skills, and the energy it contains is far greater than that of the Green Willow.

This was the first time they were used on the battlefield, and the numerous Iwa ninja were simply being slaughtered unilaterally.

Even if some tree bark is blown off by ninjutsu due to its immobility, Mumu can recover completely with a single healing spell.

Qingwu stood aside, her heart pounding with emotion.

Mumu...it's possible...maybe she already possesses Kage-level combat power?

Just thinking...

The sky darkened!

No, it wasn't dark; rather, a small figure was suspended a hundred meters in the air in a way that defied common sense, blocking out part of the sunlight.

Qingwu subconsciously raised her head.

He was dressed in an earthen robe, his arms crossed over his chest, his white beard fluttering in the wind, and his wrinkled face was expressionless.

Only a pair of sharp, eagle-like eyes were looking down at everything below.

Two days of scales, Onoki.

The Earth Shadow himself is here!

Qingwu's body tensed instantly, and his natural senses frantically "warned"—the seemingly short old man in mid-air contained terrifying energy like a walking natural disaster.

A true cinematic masterpiece!!

"Is it you?"

Onoki's voice came from the sky, not loud, but clearly heard by everyone present.

At this moment, the Iwa ninjas that Kari brought had been slaughtered by the Drywood Guards, and the remaining twenty-odd Konoha ninjas were trembling.

The name of a person is like the shadow of a tree; the Tsuchikage Onoki—this short figure appeared in every Shinobi World War, and countless powerful ninjas died at his hands.

"You killed my Iwagakure Jonin, you killed my commander Wenya, you destroyed three of my strongholds, and now... even Bloodline Hunter has died at your hands."

Faced with Onoki's questioning, Qingwu did not answer. He simply reached out his hand, and the withered tree guards, receiving the command, stepped forward and blocked his way.

The massive wooden body creaked deeply, and its emerald green pupils shone directly into the sky above the Great Tree.
