Wen Tai put his hands on his hips and laughed, completely ignoring the fact that the wound on his back was still bleeding.

Jiraiya gave it a thumbs-up, which made Bunta even more proud.

"I'd rather fight your summoning beast than kill you, the leader of the soup ninjas! Wouldn't that be much more direct and simpler..."

Before the pride in Bunta's mouth could fully bloom, the flames in the sky had already dissipated and burned out.

The densely packed translucent tissue inside was revealed, pieces of which floated in the air and then slowly drifted down, like clouds in the sky.

Bunta's smug laughter suddenly froze.

It looked at the covered night sky and frowned fiercely.

He raised his eyes and looked at Jiraiya.

"Jiraiya, what is that!?"

Jiraiya also frowned, squinted his eyes and looked at the sky, thinking rapidly in his mind.

Suddenly his eyes lit up and he spoke to Wen Tai very quickly.

"This should be the death-substitution technique that Minato mentioned, unique to the Yunin Village!"

"The technique of surrogate death?"

Wen Tai was a little confused.

"It's about being able to use a certain substance to replace the original body's death. In a sense, the principle is similar to the substitution technique!"

Jiraiya explained.

"I see......"

Having said that, the sharp-eyed Wen Tai still noticed that among some of the flames in the air that had not yet been extinguished, the translucent substances seemed to be completely unaffected.

This made it extremely puzzled.

With the combination of Jiraiya's Fire Style and his own Toad Oil, he is confident that he can burn and evaporate even a pool of water!

Other hard materials such as soil, rocks, and iron will also melt under the burning of the oil fire bomb!

But what does it see now?

A magical substance that can remain unaffected by oil and fire bombs!

Wen Tai's pupils were filled with doubts.

But at this moment, Raiya's solemn voice came from above his head.

"As expected! Minato is right..."

Bunta was shocked. Minato also knew this?

......

Chapter 397: What's the point of talking about Gou Ba? It's halftime break!

The giant eagle in the sky flew towards the translucent substances and then circled in the air.

Seems to be guarding.

Bunta asked impatiently.

"What do you mean?"

"Minato said that the organization formed by these death substitution techniques is a kind of tangible but intangible existence. It can be seen but cannot be touched."

"So it can't be destroyed by attacks, and prevent their resurrection?!"

After a moment of shock, Wen Tai finally understood what was going on and his eyes widened.

Are you so shameless?!

Why the hell don't you guys go to the Wet Bone Forest and be a deadbeat?!

"But......"

Wen Tai looked uncomfortable and hesitated to speak.

Jiraiya carefully glanced at its face and nodded helplessly.

"You're right. Now all we can do is watch!"

Wen Tai's mouth twitched, and then he sat down on the ground.

It thrust its short knife into the ground, shaking the handle slightly. Then it pulled out a pipe from somewhere and raised its chin towards Jiraiya.

Jiraiya sensibly rubbed a flame in his hand and brought it to Bunta's lips to light the pipe.

"call......"

After taking a deep breath and blowing out a puff of smoke, Wen Tai finally felt a little more energetic and for a moment he felt that the pain in his back was no longer there.

Looking at the surprised eyes above its head, it shrugged indifferently and spoke.

"Then what's the point of saying 'Hook Eight'? It's halftime break!"

Jiraiya: "..."

Although Bunta's words were a bit rough, it seemed that this was indeed the case.

......

A few minutes passed before the flames disappeared into the night sky.

Those translucent substances fell to the ground from mid-air like dust.

Soon, from the perspective of Wen Tai, who was sitting more than ten meters high, he saw that on the ground in front of him, the translucent substances that had merged into a ball fell to the ground.

Familiar figures appeared on the ground, including the young, pretty-faced leader of the Tang Ninja clan and more than two hundred human figures, all intact in Bunta's eyes.

That would be fine, after all, it had already been mentally prepared enough after hearing what Jiraiya had revealed.

But when he saw that the unicorns, which contained natural energy, were also intact, Wen Tai really couldn't hold back...

"What is this!?"

"Can anyone tell me what this is!?"

"Why are these summoned beasts also able to master that kind of death-substitution technique?!?"

"what!!!"

It roared uncontrollably.

Jiraiya was above him, covering his ears tightly, his face full of pain.

He's going deaf!

What could he say?

He is also confused!

Why are the summoned beasts of Yuin Village able to learn this technique of death substitution?

Is the threshold so low?

This shouldn't be the case! Shouldn't a technique with such incredible effects only be mastered by a select few?

It is not by mastering powerful techniques that one becomes a powerful ninja, but rather a person who is already powerful becomes even more powerful after mastering powerful techniques.

This is the truth of the ninja world.

But the Yugen Village completely goes against common sense.

It was obvious to Wen Tai that the natural energy in those Pegasus' bodies was not strong, and they should not have been able to possess this level of magic.

......

Watching the other party fly back into the distant sky, Wen Tai finally regained his composure.

"I think I know what the problem is!"

"where?"

Wen Tai's tone sounded a little impatient.

"From the very beginning, we seem to have overlooked one issue. The Tang Ninja Village... No! How did Shangguan Mo start his career? He simply relied on summoned beasts. I'm afraid we've fallen into a misunderstanding. That ability to die in someone else's place isn't some unique secret technique, but rather a power unique to some summoned beast Shangguan Mo researched and bred! This is the truth!"

Jiraiya's tone became more and more certain.

Because only by thinking in this way can everything be explained.

"......is that so?"

Wen Tai still couldn't believe that the other party's amazing ability to die in place of others was actually just some kind of summoned beast of the other party.

But Jiraiya gave it a firm nod in return.

After the sudden attack on the Hot Spring Village, he finally understood what kind of existence the Hot Spring Village really was, and how abnormal Shangguan Mo's ability to cultivate summoned beasts was.

There is quantity, and there is no shortage of summoned beasts with top-notch strength. In his eyes, Tangnin Village is completely a summoned beast village built with summoned beasts!

If Konoha provokes Yugakure, it would be like provoking a den of beasts!

.......

On the other side, in the night, thousands of meters high in the sky.

Shangguan Mo's calm voice slowly spread out in the cold sky.

"Don't get close to that guy Jiraiya. The combined ninjutsu with that toad is too lethal for ordinary ninjas like us."

It is even more threatening to the Pegasus troops than Sarutobi Hiruzen's compound ninjutsu.

Shangguan Mo thought to himself.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is old after all.

Watanabe Mousse and other ninjas on the side all had ugly expressions on their faces, but they couldn't say anything to refute.

Compared to ninjas of Jiraiya's level, even elite jonins like Watanabe Mousse and Shangguan Mo would be defeated if they are not careful!

Not to mention the many soup ninjas who are only at the Chunin level.

If it weren't for the existence of the black-hearted slug, both they and Tang Ren would have been dead no matter how many lives they had.
