Sasuke swung his Ninja Blade, striking down the falling stones from the sky, smiling slightly as he said, "Senior, it seems we make a good team after all. The range of Amaterasu's flames expands with the augmentation of Wind Release…"
"Mm..."
Uehara Naraku shook his head speechlessly at the scene, then clasped his hands into Hand Seals, stretching his palms toward the distant walls surrounding them, lowly chanting, "Fire Release: Flame Storm! Wind Release: Spiral Hurricane!"
A majestic Flame Storm erupted from Uehara Naraku's hands, with a spiraling hurricane enveloping the massive flames. The augmentation of Wind Release and Fire Release Ninjutsu swiftly smashed through the approaching Rock Ninjas, breaking their encirclement!
"Let's go, break through!"
Uehara Naraku waved his hand to grab the Five-Tails Jinchuriki's body, charging through the gap in the encirclement with Uchiha Sasuke. Every Rock Ninja attempting to stop them was easily dealt with by Sasuke using Chidori!
At this moment, Uchiha Sasuke finally felt his own power. With the combined effect of the Sharingan and Chidori, he could easily crush any enemy standing in his way.
The dozens of fearless Rock Ninjas encountered along their path were all slain by Sasuke!
The two forcefully broke through the encirclement of The Hidden Rock Village!
Uehara Naraku quickly passed the Five-Tails Jinchuriki Han to Uchiha Sasuke, softly praising, "Well done. You take the Five-Tails Jinchuriki to the side of the Ancient Giant Dragon, and I'll handle these pursuers…"
"Senior, let me do it!"
"No, let me handle it."
Uehara Naraku shook his head, softly explaining, "If I encounter danger, I can fly away at any time. You should take the Jinchuriki back first; our mission comes first!"
"Understood."
After Uchiha Sasuke left,
Uehara Naraku turned to face the Rock Ninjas closing in with predatory eyes, slowly rising into the air, calmly spreading his palms toward the sky.
Uehara Naraku nonchalantly overlooked the Rock Ninjas on the ground, softly sighing, "The annoying brat is finally gone. From now on, it's up to your luck to see who survives this battle..."
"What?"
The Rock Ninjas on the ground were taken aback, raising their heads.
However, they quickly understood what Uehara Naraku meant.
Suddenly, dark clouds began to gather in the sky, almost as if someone was using Wind Release Jutsu to forcibly gather the clouds into a rainstorm cloud.
A raindrop fell down first...
Just as a Rock Ninja curiously extended his finger to catch the raindrop, to his surprise, the raindrop transformed into the shape of a small Water Dragon Bomb, violently darting toward his throat!
The Rock Ninja's throat was instantly pierced by the small Water Dragon Bomb, continuously spilling blood!
"Defend, everyone!"
The Rock Ninja captain immediately noticed the situation, shouting loudly, "Everyone, be careful of the rain from the sky, and watch out for any raindrop that falls beside you!"
"Captain!"
A Rock Ninja raised his head and pointed to the rainstorm cloud covering the entire Hidden Rock Village, speaking with a sense of despair, "But what about the other places in the village?"
The Hidden Rock Village was vast.
The sky's rainstorm cloud covered the entire village.
The Rock Ninja captain gritted his teeth, lowering his voice, "Quickly warn the others to be cautious of today's heavy rain; it's the enemy's Jutsu!"
After finishing, the Rock Ninja captain's expression turned solemn, "If it's too late, then as the enemies said, just wish them good luck!"
"This..."
The Rock Ninjas present gasped in shock.
"We have to be prepared for the worst case scenario."
The Rock Ninja captain gazed up at Uehara Naraku in the sky, gritting his teeth, "Immediately dispatch people to notify others, and the remaining teams here should figure out a way to attack the enemy, definitely stopping the enemy's Ninjutsu!"
Actually, the Rock Ninja captain knew deep down that Uehara Naraku's technique was unstoppable. Their only hope was to kill the enemy and end his Ninjutsu!
Above in the sky,
Uehara Naraku's silhouette appeared insignificant within the rainstorm cloud. However, the rainstorm cloud above was a Ninjutsu he had created by combining Wind Power and Water Power.
This Jutsu was Uehara Naraku's first experiment, considered a technique for dealing with large-scale ninja forces, and most importantly, the coverage area was large enough.
If this Jutsu succeeds, it means Uehara Naraku can achieve other techniques, like Heaven's Rain of Fire, Heaven's Justice, and such...
"Let's test it out."
Uehara Naraku peered down at The Hidden Rock Village under the oppressive clouds, slowly spreading his palms, lightly squinting his eyes, "Let me see how many ninjas you have now, and what can you use to block my Ninjutsu..."
Uehara Naraku fiercely waved his palm towards the ground, coldly shouting, "Water Release: Celestial Rain Water Dragon Bullet!"
A torrential downpour spilled from the rainstorm cloud in the sky!
In an instant, the raindrops fell from the sky, transforming into the form of Water Dragon Bombs, pouring down towards the Rock Ninjas on the ground!
These tiny Water Dragon Bombs had the same effects as real Water Dragon Bombs, only their Chakra content was much smaller, and the impact force decreased significantly.
However, these tiny Water Dragon Bomb techniques wouldn't land on the ground; instead, they roared towards every enemy nearby, every enemy possessing Chakra!
The attack targets were precise, and the Jutsu's effect was spectacular.
A Rock Ninja swung his Ninja Blade to cut through the raindrops, "You've got to be kidding! Just this level of Ninjutsu, how could it possibly hurt me?"
But in the next moment, his knee was suddenly hit by a tiny Water Dragon Bomb, striking him down to the ground. The other Water Dragon Bombs rushed forward, and soon the Rock Ninja had to give up resistance...
"My Style Secret Technique! Smoke Screen!"
Uehara Naraku rubbed his palms, releasing waves of smoke to restore his Chakra. During this technique's operation, the consumption was enormous. Counting the Chakra cost reduction, each falling raindrop consumed about 5 Chakra points.
Now, tens of thousands of tiny Water Dragon Bombs had fallen over The Hidden Rock Village, and this number was increasing by tens of thousands per second.
Half a minute later, the entire Hidden Rock Village fell into chaos.
Thousands upon thousands of ninjas were forced to deal with the Water Dragon Bombs attacks, with wails of serious injuries and immobile Rock Ninjas everywhere.
Uehara Naraku, watching his rapidly increasing stats and swiftly consuming Chakra, took a deep breath, then instantaneously moved toward the Tsuchikage Tower: "Compared to these, there's still the most important reward!"
For Uehara Naraku, the most important reward was the Earth Power gained by invading The Hidden Rock Village, allowing him to use Earth Release Ninjutsu at will.
Under the attack of the Celestial Rain Water Dragon Bullet, there were no ninjas left in The Hidden Rock Village who could spare the energy to stop Uehara Naraku. They could only shiver in hiding or try to destroy every small attacking Water Dragon Bomb.
Even Both Scales Onoki and Huang Tu were distracted by these small Water Dragon Bombs falling from the sky. Onoki could only escape Mu's Second Tsuchikage's attacks, and Huang Tu gave up maintaining the Mountain Earth Jutsu, allowing Deidara and Sasori of the Red Sand to escape the binding of the Mountain Earth Jutsu with the Ancient Giant Dragon.
The Hidden Rock Village, barely maintaining equilibrium before Uehara Naraku acted, was now completely crushed by the Celestial Rain Water Dragon Bullet technique!
The entire Hidden Rock Village no longer had anyone who could pay attention to what the Akatsuki were doing.
Uehara Naraku stood on top of the Tsuchikage Tower, leisurely waving his palm as the tall building was instantly crushed and destroyed by a gust of wind: "Let's see, what kind of power can Earth, Water, and Wind create together!"
Side Quest: Successfully invade The Hidden Rock Village (1/1), mission completed. Reward: Passive Talent Skill, Earth Power.

Looking at the system panel's rewards, Uehara Naraku suddenly felt he could no longer remain low-key.
