Chapter 64: One Person's Strength
Swish, swish, swish~~~~
In a forest somewhere in the Bear Country.
Amid the dense sound of breaking through the air, figures were either jumping nimbly on the branches or running on the ground below.
This was a force of 500 ninjas.
And from the forehead guards they wore, it was not difficult to recognize that this ninja force came from the Hidden Rock Village, one of the five major ninja villages.
"How long will it take to reach the Star Ninja Village?"
In the fast-moving forest, the leading Rock Ninja was a burly middle-aged man. After observing the situation ahead, he turned his head to look at another Rock Ninja who was following him.
"Reply to Lord Gangyan, at our current speed, it will take about half an hour to reach the Star Ninja Village." The Rock Ninja who was asked immediately replied respectfully.
"Half an hour?" The man named Gangyan nodded slightly, and then looked into the distance again.
As the village's elite jonin, he was appointed as the person in charge of the attack on the Star Ninja Village.
"I don't know what's going on with the leeches. Logically speaking, with the strength of the Star Ninja Village, it's impossible to stop them. Could it be that the Sand Village really noticed the village's actions in advance, so they intercepted the leeches?"
As he moved forward, Gangyan kept thinking.
After thinking for a while, Gangyan shook his head again.
No matter what the specific situation of the leeches is, in short, the primary goal of his team this time is to capture the Star Ninja Village.
Only by taking over the Star Ninja Village can the follow-up troops smoothly pass through the Bear Country and attack the Wind Country directly.
"Now it depends on whether the Sand Village really noticed it, or how much support it gave to the Star Ninja Village." Gangyan's eyes became sharp.
He led the village's elite troops this time.
Five hundred ninjas, all of them are Chunin and above.
With such a lineup, even if the Sand Village really supports the Star Ninja Village, he believes that it is enough to win strongly.
After all, the Sand Village's main energy was tied up in the battlefield with the Cloud Village, and the troops that could support the Star Village would inevitably be very limited.
Keep moving forward.
The five hundred Rock Ninjas led by Gangyan were also getting closer and closer to the Star Village.
"Here we come!"
Three kilometers in a certain direction of the Star Village, a figure sitting cross-legged on a tree branch suddenly opened his eyes.
His sight seemed to see through the dense woods in front of him and saw the crowd approaching from a distance.
Under the powerful perception of ninjutsu, the crowd approaching from a distance all contained unfamiliar chakra.
Without hesitation, the figure immediately turned into a cloud of smoke and dissipated.
He was just a shadow clone.
To be precise, it was a shadow clone from Naraku.
The ninth floor of the Star Shadow Building.
Almost at the moment when the shadow clone was released, Naraku, who was surrounded by many true qi shadow clones and breathing in and out spiritual energy steadily, opened his eyes at the first time.
"You came quite fast!"
Receiving the memory from the shadow clone, Naraku stood up and looked calmly in the direction of the crowd detected by the shadow clone.
『Shrinking the Earth into an Inch』 was performed, and the next second, Naraku disappeared in the Star Shadow Building.
Up to now, although 『Shrinking the Earth into an Inch』 has not yet broken through the small success, the practice day after day without stopping has undoubtedly made remarkable progress.
Naraku can now shrink the earth within 500 steps.
In just a breath, Naraku who disappeared in the Star Shadow Building has appeared outside the Star Ninja Village, and then flashed away.
From the shadow clone's detection to the situation and then to Naraku's action, it actually happened in a very short time.
Until Naraku arrived at the place where the shadow clone was originally located with 『Shrinking the Earth into an Inch』, he could just see a group of figures rushing in front of him.
There are people!
The crowd coming was the Rock Ninja troops led by Gangyan.
When Naraku saw the other party, Gangyan and other Rock Ninjas also quickly discovered Naraku.
When they found someone ahead, Gangyan and the other Rock Ninjas did not stop running, but they all became alert and started to observe with great vigilance.
The object of observation was not only Naraku, but also the surrounding environment.
This was because they were afraid that Naraku was just a cover, and there would be other people ambushing or setting traps around.
However, after a quick observation, Gangyan and the Rock Ninjas soon found that there were no other people or traps around.
"Get rid of him!"
Without hesitation, Gangyan decisively ordered someone to kill Naraku.
He did not recognize Naraku's identity.
But since Naraku appeared near the Star Ninja Village, with their intention to attack the Star Ninja Village now, even if he was just an ordinary villager, it would be impossible to let him go.
Swish swish swish !!!
Following Gangyan's order, a team of four Rock Ninjas on his side quickly rushed out at a faster speed and headed straight for Naraku in front.
Step forward.
When he saw the Rock Ninja troops on the opposite side, Naraku did not stand there waiting, but stepped forward calmly.
The pace gradually quickened.
Just as the four Iwagakure ninjas in the Iwagakure rushed out of the team, Naraku also walked faster and faster until he turned into a shadow.
"So fast!"
"This guy is not an ordinary character, hurry up!"
"Kill him!"
Although he did not use the "Lightning Body", Naraku's burst speed in his normal state was still very amazing.
The four Iwagakure ninjas who attacked Naraku saw Naraku suddenly burst out with an extraordinary speed, and their faces changed drastically, and they hurriedly launched an attack.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh ~~~
Dense shurikens and kunai were thrown out one after another.
"Lightning Body!"
With lightning wrapped around his body, Naraku rushed forward with cold eyes, looking at the shuriken and kunai shot at him. Not only did he not dodge, but he burst out with a faster speed.
His body turned into lightning.
Almost in an instant, Naraku met the shuriken and kunai shot at him.
The shuriken and kunai were all blown away by the lightning wrapped around his body.
Puff!
On the way forward, while Naraku was shaking off the shuriken and kunai, he also quickly appeared in front of a rock ninja in front of him.
A residual image flashed.
The rock ninja didn't even have a chance to say a word, and his head flew off his shoulders.
Bang bang bang~~~~
Naraku, who turned into lightning, was too fast. After easily killing a rock ninja, he suddenly stabbed into the rock ninja army like a sharp knife when many rock ninjas didn't have time to react.
"Ah!!!"
In the crazy collision, looking down from a high place, you can clearly see the lightning transformed by Naraku moving rapidly in the Rock Ninja Corps.
At the same time, wherever he passed, there were continuous screams of Rock Ninjas being hit.
The lighter ones broke bones and tendons, and the heavier ones died on the spot.
"Damn it, kill him!"
"Damn it, where is he?"
"Too fast, the opponent's speed is beyond my sight."
"."
It was not until Naraku crashed into the center of the Rock Ninja Corps that the Rock Ninjas reacted, and then seeing the miserable state of their companions, the Rock Ninjas were all shocked and angry, and wanted to fight back.
But when they looked for Naraku, all they could catch was the remaining silver light when the "Lightning Body" moved.
