Dai used Leaf Whirlwind[b]Leaf Whirlwind[/b], which was blocked by the Earth Flow Wall[b]Earth Flow Wall[/b] formed by several shadow guards working together.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Pakura launched an attack using Scorch Release[b]Scorch Release[/b].
Feeling the restlessness of the blood in his body, Dai dodged quickly.
This woman's attacks are really strange. Fortunately, Sakumo had told him about Pakura's abilities before he came.
Failing to land a hit, Pakura quickly retreated back to the formation. She didn't think she could defeat Dai in a one - on - one fight.
This guy is incredibly strong. He's a pure - blooded Taijutsu[b]Taijutsu[/b] ninja.
I really can't figure out how he trained himself to be like this.
Looking at Dai's completely white eyes and the swirling green light all over his body, Pakura felt a bit of a headache.
He's just as hard to deal with as Sakumo!!
"Morning Peacock[b]Morning Peacock[/b]."
Since Pakura stopped attacking, Dai continued with Morning Peacock[b]Morning Peacock[/b].
The next moment, fist - shadows wreathed in flames cascaded down like a waterfall, accompanied by Dai's hoarse roar.
"I da da da～"
Seeing hundreds of fist shadows rushing towards her, Pakura's expression became solemn.
She could feel the powerful force and scorching heat from each fist shadow.
It seemed just as powerful as her Scorch Release[b]Scorch Release[/b].
Seeing that she couldn't dodge, as Dai was too fast, Pakura could only choose to take the attack head - on.
"Defend."
Several people joined hands and placed them on the back of a shadow guard.
This was a newly recruited shadow guard, relying on his Kekkei Genkai[b]Kekkei Genkai[/b] - Sand Release[b]Sand Release[/b].
"Sand Release, Sand Defense Wall[b]Sand Release, Sand Defense Wall[/b]."
After forming Hand Seals[b]Hand Seals[/b], a large amount of sand rose from the ground and formed two huge shield - like defenses in front of him.
With the Chakra[b]Chakra[/b] support from the people behind him, he not only infused Chakra[b]Chakra[/b] into the sand serving as a shield to boost its defensive power but also chose sand with high - hardness minerals whenever possible.
The huge shield firmly protected several people, and Dai could no longer see their figures.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of fists striking the shield was attention - grabbing, and the ninjas on the battlefield also noticed the situation here.
From a distance, the sky was filled with flickering fire rain, like a meteor shower, spectacular and terrifying.
Countless fist shadows caused waves on the sand shield, and the terrifying high temperature even made the sand start to become crystal - clear.
There were even signs of vitrification.
After breaking through one layer of the shield, the next layer blocked Dai's attack.
The people behind the sand shield all looked nervous. Every time it vibrated, their hearts skipped a beat.
"Crack～"
Suddenly, a clear sound rang out, and Dai and Pakura's group looked at each other in surprise.
The sand shield had turned into glass and scattered on the ground. The Morning Peacock[b]Morning Peacock[/b] was finally blocked.
"Good defense."
Dai never expected his Morning Peacock[b]Morning Peacock[/b] to be fully blocked.
"So what's that?"
Pakura took a deep breath and didn't want to lose the verbal battle.
"Scorch Release, Over - Steaming Kill[b]Scorch Release, Over - Steaming Kill[/b]."
She dashed towards Dai swiftly.
"Sand Release, Sand Drizzle[b]Sand Release, Sand Drizzle[/b]."
The shadow guard used Sand Release[b]Sand Release[/b] again.
A large amount of sand converged and rained down on Dai's head from the sky.
Without any obvious movement, Dai disappeared from the spot. Such tricks didn't work on him.
Just as he was about to face Pakura who was charging towards him, he found that his feet were tightly grabbed by sand hands that suddenly emerged from the ground.
This was actually a two - purpose Ninjutsu. The shadow guard slightly raised the corner of his mouth. He had Dai under his control.
He continued to channel Chakra to strengthen the hardness and power of the sand hand, preventing Dai from breaking free.
"Lord Kazekage, take this chance."
"Ah!"
Pakura roared and rushed towards Dai with the spinning fireballs around her.
This time, she was going to evaporate all the water in Dai's body and turn him into a mummy.
Then she would team up with Shukaku to take down Sakumo. If so, this battle would be a great success.
A beautiful scene had already emerged in Pakura's mind, but unfortunately, things didn't go as expected.
"Is that all you've got?"
Dai tested the strength of the sand hand under his feet. It was indeed very powerful.
But if they thought they could control him with this, they were really underestimating the passion of youth.
"Leaf Strong Whirlwind[b]Leaf Strong Whirlwind[/b]."
Dai concentrated a large amount of Chakra on his feet and made a sudden spin.
The sand hand broke instantly, and an air - bursting sound was heard in the air.
Then Dai disappeared from Pakura's sight. He wasn't stupid and wouldn't go head - to - head with Pakura, who had Scorch Release.
He thought it was a really bad deal to exchange one for one. He should at least take down four of them.
The next moment, the green figure had already reached the shadow guard who was still maintaining the sand hand.
The shadow guard didn't have time to react and was kicked in the abdomen by Dai.
He spat out blood from his mouth and flew dozens of meters away.
After landing, he struggled to get up, looking like he was about to die.
Only then did someone go over and feed him a medicine pill to save his life, but he had lost his combat ability.
Without the effective defense of Sand Release, Pakura and the others were being beaten by Dai.
They didn't even have a chance to catch their breath. If this continued, Dai would surely win.
Sakumo had also fought with Shukaku for several rounds.
He was agile and struck ruthlessly. They were at an impasse only because Shukaku had extremely excellent defense and recovery abilities. If it were someone else facing Sakumo, their heads would have been cut off long ago.
"Are all Konoha Ninjas this tough?"
Shukaku couldn't help roaring. None of the Konoha Ninjas he had fought with was a pushover.
As he roared, his hand extended outwards, trying to grab Sakumo.
"A Tailed Beast is nothing special."
This was Sakumo's first time fighting a Tailed Beast. At first, he was a bit cautious.
Now he had gotten used to Shukaku's attack methods, which were basically just controlling the sand to attack.
Sakumo dodged Shukaku's huge hand and moved behind Shukaku.
He still remembered what Tsunade had told him about Shukaku's weakness.
Unexpectedly, Shukaku was now extremely vigilant. His tail drooped down, and he didn't even need to use it to attack.
He just turned around and fired a Air Manipulation Bullet[b]Air Manipulation Bullet[/b] at Sakumo.
"You're really alert."
Sakumo sighed. Shukaku was like a man who had been bitten by a snake and was now afraid of well ropes. Once bitten, twice shy.
There was no hope of sneaking in from the back.
After dodging Shukaku's Air Manipulation Bullet[b]Air Manipulation Bullet[/b], the place where he had been standing was blown to pieces, leaving a huge crater.
"Ah, you damned rat. If you're brave, don't hide."
Shukaku started to go crazy. He slapped the land with both hands, and a wave of sand surged towards Sakumo.
This was also the reason why Sakumo wanted to divide the battlefield. He could dodge it, but it would be difficult for the Konoha Ninjas.
The last strike of the Third Kazekage before his death had taken away so many lives.
Sakumo still had a lingering fear even now.
"As you wish.
The Flying Thunder God Jutsu is activated, and Sakumo appears on Shukaku's shoulder.
He left a mark on Shukaku's body earlier, but he hasn't found a good opportunity until now.
"Swordsmanship: Breaking Through the Void[b]Swordsmanship: Breaking Through the Void[/b]."
The short blade in Sakumo's hand glows with a dazzling green light as he slices down hard from Shukaku's shoulder.
He originally planned to cut Shukaku's neck, but it's not a good position to exert force, and Shukaku's defense at the neck is getting stronger.
"Ow~"
Shukaku lets out a pain-filled scream, and its entire arm is cut off by Sakumo with one strike.
"I'm gonna kill you!"
It slaps its other hand against its shoulder.
"Come and catch me if you can!"
A slight smile curls up on Sakumo's lips. He stomps hard on Shukaku's shoulder and disappears from Shukaku's sight.
Shukaku's slap on its shoulder raises a cloud of dust.
"Ah~"
Shukaku tilts its head back and fires a Tailed Beast Ball at Sakumo in the distance. Sand begins to pour out from its shoulder and connects with the severed arm on the ground.
It restores to its original state in no time.
