"Die!"
In the western region of the Land of Wind, in front of the gate of a certain fortress, a scarlet serpent was rampaging and shuttling through the crowd.
Don't let its huge size fool you, its movements were quite agile. The huge serpent body was like a flexible dump truck, winding its way forward at high speed, stirring up the sky with yellow sand. A sweep of its tail could cause a landslide and crack the ground.
"Ding ding dang dang!"
Countless shurikens and exploding tag kunai hit its body, but apart from a few sparks, there was no effect. The hardness of Maboroshi's scales had surpassed ordinary steel, and even exploding tag kunai were directly ignored.
However, its desire to attack was also quite strong. It arrogantly shuttled between the enemy lines, charging and ramming. With each swing of its tail, several ninjas vomited blood and flew backwards.
Under the absolute size suppression, the ninjas' defensive formation was like paper, torn apart and scattered, as small as ants.
"Wind Release: Wind Scythe Formation!"
"Fire Release: Scorching Stream Rock!"
They did not sit still and wait for death. A set of quite tacit wind and fire cooperation ninjutsu directly bombarded it. The wind helped the fire, and the soaring flames instantly swept across half of Maboroshi's serpent body.
Maboroshi opened its mouth and spat out a large amount of purplish-black venom, pouring down like a waterfall, instantly extinguishing the flames. The two ninjas were also splashed with venom all over their bodies because they did not dodge in time.
"Not good!"
Before the two could open their mouths to call for help, the parts that were splashed with venom began to emit "sizzling" white smoke. Accompanied by a scalp-numbing "clucking" sound, the two quickly stiffened in place and were petrified from head to toe.
With a roll of its tail, the two statues instantly shattered into stone chips all over the sky.
"Well done, Maboroshi!" The Third Kazekage shouted loudly.
"Stop nagging!"
Maboroshi reprimanded impatiently, turned its head and plunged into the enemy lines, and began to crush the remaining enemies.
Several ninjas kept jumping back, narrowly avoiding the attack of the serpent's tail, but they were still swayed by the rising gale and were about to lose their lives on the spot.
"Boom!"
Fortunately, the companions around them provided timely support. Several exploding tag kunai hit Maboroshi's head, and the sound of the explosion shook the air slightly.
Maboroshi shook his head, re-emerged from the black smoke, and its huge lantern-like vertical pupils revealed bloodthirsty killing intent.
It was not afraid of these attacks. In fact, apart from its tail, its head was the hardest part of its body. The power of exploding tags was just scratching it. Its only weakness was... its eyes.
The world thought that its reverse scale was the weak point, but they were wrong. Its eyes were the most vulnerable parts of its body. They were connected to some nerves in the brain. Once injured, it was estimated that it would immediately lose its fighting ability.
Usually, it relied on its reckless and fierce fighting style to conceal the fragility of its pupils, but the explosion that "accidentally" affected its eyes just now caused its movements to suddenly stop.
It was immediately furious, and the dark red serpent's tail was raised high, aiming at the two who had just taken action, and smashed down with the momentum of a meteorite falling to the ground!
As two dignified faces were covered by a huge shadow, the two immediately squatted back and prepared to flash out of the attack range.
Suddenly, the Third Kazekage on the side jumped up first, and the hands that had quickly completed the hand seals flashed with dazzling lightning.
"Lightning Release: Thunder Arrow Prison!"
He waved his hands in mid-air and threw out a ball of dazzling thunder. The two were instantly struck by the lightning, and their bodies were bathed in a sea of lightning that splashed like water, emitting billowing burnt smoke.
"Take this!"
At this moment, the serpent's tail slammed down, rolled up the two charred bodies and threw them away like rags. Before they landed, they had already lost their breath.
"Sage Art: Triple Suffering!"
Maboroshi suddenly rushed out, and the huge serpent's tail turned into a long whip, and slammed on the ground with a "boom". The powerful impact set off a gale, and rolled a group of ninjas into the sky with yellow sand.
But the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, and three huge ravines were revealed in the desert, and its shape was like a trident, and inside it, there were countless ninja corpses.
"A bit interesting."
In the distance, on a towering sand dune, Kamihane said with interest.
He looked at Orochimaru on the side, and found that this disciple was staring at the serpent in the field with great concentration, and a certain light in his eyes flickered like breathing.
He chuckled and asked meaningfully: "Orochimaru, what do you think of Maboroshi?"
"Very strong!" Orochimaru's eyes showed solemnity, "Let's not talk about the advantage of its size, it knows how to cooperate, which is already ahead of most summoned beasts, and... this guy has a power that cannot be explained in its body... it is comparable to a tailed beast..."
"Do you like it?"
Kamihane showed a meaningful smile, "If you like it, I'll give it to you."
"What?" Orochimaru was stunned, his golden vertical pupils widened, subconsciously thinking that the other party was joking, but in the next moment, he suddenly felt that this was not a joke for Kamihane.
After all, this master not only had terrifying strength, but every move seemed to be full of deep meaning.
Down the field, the battle was still continuing.
This battle lasted for three hours, because even if the Third Kazekage and Maboroshi the serpent cooperated tacitly, the enemies seemed to emerge continuously from all directions.
Moreover, after the other party learned of Maboroshi's weakness, the balance of victory began to tilt towards this group of masked ninjas.
"Tsk tsk." Kamihane carried his hands on his back, "The scale of this group of people is almost equivalent to a ninja force."
Orochimaru nodded with a solemn expression, "It seems that this fortress has a reason why it must be taken down."
Kamihane glanced at him, "What do you think this group of people is for?"
Orochimaru turned his thoughts, and suddenly thought of some kind of possibility, and took a breath of cold air, "Could it be that they have learned about the intelligence of the Uzumaki people, and want to seize Uzumaki Haruna in the fortress?"
"When looking at things, never only look at the surface, only by thinking from multiple angles can you have a more comprehensive answer." Kamihane said earnestly.
Looking at Orochimaru's puzzled eyes, he chuckled and said: "I'll just ask you a question, in such a big fortress, knowing that it is so precious, why is only the Third Kazekage guarding here?"
"This..."
"Don't forget, this is the Land of Wind, even if the Sand Hidden Village is so slow, it won't let its Kage fight alone, right?"
Orochimaru's eyes showed thought, "Perhaps... they are not as united inside as they seem on the surface?"
"Don't be silly, the Third Kazekage can take the top position in the shortest time, if there is not enough solid support, do you think this is possible?"
Kamihane shook his head and directly said the answer: "This group of people is obviously from the Sand Hidden Village."
"Ah?"
Orochimaru asked doubtfully: "People from our own village? Why attack your own fortress? And why attack your own Kage?"
"I don't know, maybe this is the tradition of the Sand Hidden Village." Kamihane said "I don't know", but his eyes flowed over the serpent, and his squinted eyes flashed a ray of light.
Soon, Maboroshi revealed signs of fatigue under the constant attacks, and the Third Kazekage had also retreated to the fortress early, and only Maboroshi was still struggling to support.
"Maboroshi, this place is about to be captured, retreat quickly!" The Third Kazekage shouted, raising his head.
Maboroshi turned its head to look at him, and its eyes showed a humane unwillingness, "It's not over yet! I'll go and attack again, this time I'll definitely blow them all away! You come and cover me!"
Saying that, without caring how the Third Kazekage reacted, it rushed out directly, bringing up billowing yellow sand.
Because, it had unwavering trust in the Third Kazekage.
"Our combination can't lose, charge!"
It shouted, its snake head raised high, and it was about to spit out venom.
"Kacha!"
Suddenly, a thunderbolt flashed across the sky, and struck Maboroshi's back of the head from top to bottom like a sharp arrow. Inside the thunder, there was also a steel needle-like sand iron thorn, which directly pierced Maboroshi's right eye.
The lightning gave speed, and the sand iron provided piercing power...
The pain struck, but Maboroshi was stunned. With such sharp lightning and Magnet Release, the caster could only be...
It habitually turned its head, but found that the vision of its right eye had long fallen into darkness. It could only awkwardly turn its head, and in its only remaining left pupil, it reflected a cold figure.
The Third Kazekage!
He hadn't put down the hand seals yet, and only coldness remained on his expressionless face.
"Why..." Maboroshi's body swayed, and the spiritual damage directly destroyed its fighting spirit compared to the physical pain.
"Maboroshi, your power is not easy to control, but now, we have a way to really control you."
The Third Kazekage said lightly, and as soon as the words fell, Maboroshi's huge body crashed to the ground.
