Build the Swarm Tech Tree in Konoha

Chapter 43 Captain, you are so thick-skinned

Because of the addition of Aburame Tetsumaru, the defense barrier was erected in advance, and the Konoha ninjas responsible for the defense got a moment of rest.

It was now nine o'clock in the morning, the rain had subsided a little, and the entire position was quiet. All the ninjas were taking the time to rest. They either held up their rain gear alone, or a small team pulled up a tent to take shelter from the rain.

Most people closed their eyes and fell asleep. The big-hearted ones like the Akimichi family and the Inuzuka family even purred, and some young ninjas stared at the treetops and grass blades.

Boom

dong dong dong

A low vibration came faintly, and all the Konoha ninjas suddenly jumped up, staring closely at the rain and mist in the northwest.

The ninja responsible for commanding the overall situation is from the Akimichi family. He has a standard chubby figure and a beard. He is about forty years old. He listened for a while and made a judgment: "It is the joint ninjutsu of the Iwa ninja. It should be

Almost there.”

Commander Akimichi immediately shouted an order: "The enemy is Iwa Ninja, prepare for battle!"

Everyone made final preparations. Aburame Tetsumaru took out a few combination insects. At this time, with the help of psychic silk and the bugs buried in advance, he had seen the specific situation of the enemy, but after thinking about it, he still collected the combination insects.

stand up.

After all, he is not a familiar teammate or a familiar commander. If he rashly launches a long-range attack, it is hard to say how great the results will be, but it will definitely cause chaos in Konoha. It is unknown how the commander will view himself and how he will punish himself.

The risk is too great.

Aburame Tetsumaru reminded his subordinates: "Pay attention, the first wave of people who appear should be Konoha's ninjas. Look for them before attacking."

"yes."

"clear."

The first thing that emerged from the hazy rain and fog was a large patterned snake. Standing on the snake's head was Orochimaru. When he saw the prepared hill, he couldn't help showing a somewhat satisfied look.

Orochimaru immediately put the thumb and index finger of his right hand into his mouth and blew an extremely loud whistle. Soon eight jonin rushed out of the rain and fog, all of them injured and in a miserable state.

Aburame Tetsumaru and the others retreated after defeating the pursuers of the Ame Ninja and Iwa Ninja. Throughout the second half of the night, it was the nine jonin led by Orochimaru who resisted more and more enemies.

According to Orochimaru's plan, they had to resist longer and were prepared to sacrifice a few lives. Fortunately, they got the news that the construction of the first line of defense was completed ahead of schedule, and they were finally able to retreat completely.

This is the best news for Orochimaru. The combat value of these eight jounin is fully demonstrated today. Being able to save two more is a huge gain.

The eight jounin obeyed Orochimaru's command and created magnificent achievements. From then on, they can be regarded as his subordinates. They are of great help to Orochimaru in controlling the ninja army. After all, Konoha's Rain Country ninja army has more than 4,000 ninjas.

There are only about 60 jounin in Chuya, and there are only 300 jounin in the whole leaf village.

After the two sides met, Orochimaru arranged for the Jonin to retreat to the next line of defense for repairs, while he himself took over the command from Akimichi and prepared to resist the following Iwa Ninja pursuers.

After walking around the hill, Orochimaru had an idea. When he saw Aburame Tetsumaru, he nodded extra to show his closeness.

"Fan Yun, why are you still here? Hurry up and chase some jounin. You also need to reinforce the next line of defense."

Unexpectedly, he discovered that the entire sealing class was there, which made Orochimaru very angry and immediately drove away this group of nerdy ninjas.

Orochimaru would never accept these ninjas, who were extremely difficult to train and had little fighting ability, to appear on the front line of the battle.

After initially mastering this position, Orochimaru gathered more than 300 Konoha ninjas for statistics.

"Raising hands to master Wind Escape is pretty good."

"Raise your hands to master water escape, very good, very good."

"Raise your hands to master Thunder Escape. Well, there are so few."

Forget about Fire Release and Earth Release, one is not suitable for the environment, and the other is too disadvantageous to fight against Iwa Ninja.

"The one who has mastered water escape will stay, and the others will disperse and prepare to fight."

"yes."

Orochimaru had great ideas about defensive operations. His battle preparation process only took three minutes. The Iwa Ninja's pursuers finally appeared. The first thing that emerged from the rain and mist was a series of boulders.

Earth Release·Rock Cannonball Technique

Konoha launched a joint water escape to deal with the earth escape attack.

Water Escape·Union·Water Formation Wall Technique

A huge wall of water, forty meters high, surrounded the entire hill and rose from the ground. Huge rock shells were blown into the sky by the water flow, causing no harm at all.

Konoha then launched a series of joint ninjutsu to launch a counterattack.

Water Escape·Union·Water Spear Assault

Water Release·Union·Great Waterfall Technique

Water Escape·Union·Water Continuous Bomb

The high and low levels of these ninjutsu are combined, and the combination of light and heavy is enough to defeat a large group of rock ninjas who can only use defensive ninjutsu together.

Earth Escape·Wanli Earthflow Wall

Then I continued to input chakra, struggling to support myself, but gradually I felt like I couldn't support it anymore.

This is the biggest advantage of water escape in combined ninjutsu. The more water sources are used in the environment, the more powerful the water escape is and the less consumption it consumes. It can even break through the natural suppression of water.

As the ninjutsu continued to attack, the ground gradually turned into a lake. Orochimaru channeled two new big snakes. The three big snakes disappeared and appeared in the water. From time to time, they attacked the Iwa nin and hit the earth flow wall, creating pressure on the enemy.

At the critical moment when the Iwa Ninja showed his decline, two huge rocks under the water turned over and suddenly merged together, sandwiching a big snake in the middle, and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

Earth Escape·Shantu Technique

This is a B-level large-scale ninjutsu. A ninja who can complete this ninjutsu without any recruitment must be an extremely strong person.

All the Iwa ninjas cheered loudly: "Master Qingyan is here."

Hundreds of rock ninjas received effective command and immediately organized a powerful joint ninjutsu array.

The first was an earth flow wall jointly performed by two hundred people. The thickness and height were astonishing, and an earth platform with a height of 20 meters was created.

Then came the earth escape and rock shot technique jointly used by 300 people. The heavy rain of gravel that covered the sky beat the two big snakes until they were bleeding, and they were immediately enveloped in white smoke and the channeling was lifted.

The next step is to launch a general attack on the hill where Konoha is located.

Earth Release·Union·Rock Cannonball Technique

Earth Escape·Union·Tu Ling Tuanzi

Two types of rock shells, one large and one small, rushed towards the Konoha ninjas and penetrated Konoha's water barrier continuously, causing a lot of casualties immediately.

We can't continue. There are more rock ninjas and more earth release ninjutsu. In addition, the effect of earth and water can be used normally when combined with ninjutsu. There is no hope for the legion to fight.

Orochimaru shouted: "Now, execute tactic No. 6."

Others also loudly passed the order: "Tactics No. 6!"

"No. 6."

All the one hundred and forty Konoha ninjas who participated in the joint water escape turned and ran away. They carried the injured and even the corpses of dead ninjas on their backs.

"Attention everyone, after the next round of attacks, we will launch a pursuit according to the size of the team." Qingyan saw the Konoha ninjas looking like they were retreating, but he still cautiously decided to attack again.

This time was the largest joint ninjutsu performed by all the rock ninjas. A total of fifty rock cannonballs were created, which hit the group of Konoha ninjas who were running away frantically, causing blood and flesh to fly everywhere.

Seeing that Konoha suffered such huge casualties and still continued to run away, Qingyan no longer hesitated and ordered the formation to be disbanded and pursued as a small team.

More than four hundred Iwa ninjas jumped off the platform, waded through puddles, and climbed up the hill. They were surprised to find that the Konoha ninjas who were running away frantically turned around and rushed over.

Just when the Iwa Ninja was about to form an array again, the Konoha ninjas jumped out of pre-dug caves in various places on the hill and mixed with the Iwa Ninja, and a fierce melee ensued.

This time Iwa Ninja found that he was at a huge disadvantage. This hillock was not the position prepared by Orochimaru, but a melee battlefield, a battlefield where earth escape could not be used.

The cunning Orochimaru never thought about defeating the Iwa Ninja with combined ninjutsu from the beginning. This technique was originally one of the Iwa Ninja's special skills. Moreover, there were more people and he did not have enough lightning escape ninjas. How could he defeat the Iwa Ninja?

Why do you lose?

The only chance of victory lies in the melee, which can slightly even out the gap in numbers. More importantly, the melee tests the personal fighting ability and courage of both parties. Orochimaru feels that Konoha is worthy of everyone in this aspect.

So he prepared for a melee from the beginning, and then drove away the sealing squad and the jounin early, all in order to avoid inexplicably losing high-value ninjas in the melee.

Ninjas have been fighting in melee for more than a thousand years. Don't get too used to this scene. Ninjas on both sides are screaming and firing their ultimate moves. The scene is becoming more and more chaotic. Most of the casualties are accidental injuries.

Aburame Tetsumaru also used her ultimate move from the beginning, scattering half of the hundreds of attacking and exploding bugs on her body.

Secret Technique·Insect Storm

He defeated a dozen rock ninjas at once and cleared a large open area.

He took the opportunity to drag Uchiha Kei and Kurama Un to a rocky slope, protected the two subordinates behind him, and started a fierce fight with the Iwa Ninja relying on the two layers of beetle defense on his body.

The two sides were completely mixed together, and the distance between them was too close. At this time, killing mainly relied on ninja swords, kunai, and detonating charms. There was no time to form seals with ninjutsu. Besides, the killing range of ninjutsu was too large and it was easy to cause accidental injuries.

Aburame Tetsumaru was wielding a ninja sword she picked up on the ground, and she was holding a locust in her left hand as a hidden weapon.

His swordsmanship was average. Fortunately, he didn't have to worry about defense and only considered offense. With two illusion masters behind him to assist him, he was able to capture three Iwa Ninjas in several encounters.

His performance also attracted the swordsmanship masters among the Iwa Ninja. A tall and thin Iwa Ninja dodged over and started with an upper cut.

Aburame Tetsumaru blocked with a backhand. As soon as he parried, the opponent's Ninja sword spun around, making a circle of sword shadows. He suddenly felt his hand heat up, and the Ninja sword had been taken away.

The Iwa ninja then used the handle of the knife to block the locust in Tetsumaru's left hand. He raised the long knife to the height of his eyebrows, held the knife with both hands, aimed at the tip of Tetsumaru's nose and stabbed it.

"You think everything will be fine if you wear armor all over your body? You are naive."

Iwa Ninja noticed a few round things coming out of Aburame Tetsumaru's right hand, and he sneered. He was a stubborn guy who would struggle even before death, but that was the end of it.

The long knife instantly pierced the tip of Aburame Tetsumaru's nose, and then slid away, sparking with sparks.

The violent impact caused Aburame Tetsumaru's head to tilt back ninety degrees, and also caused Iwa Ninja to lose his center of gravity and lose his footing. Iwa Ninja was shocked and didn't know what happened.

Uchiha Kei, who was standing behind Aburame Tetsumaru, reacted and used his Sharingan to cast a genjutsu on Iwa Ninja.

Sharingan·Fixation

Aburame Tetsumaru took the opportunity to nail the explosive bug held in his right hand to Iwa Ninja's neck. The ensuing explosion broke half of his neck and killed the swordsman master.

After the explosion, Uchiha Keicai noticed that there were more than a dozen beetles lying on the captain's face, and he was so frightened that he almost screamed.

It turns out that Aburame Tetsumaru paid great attention to defense after returning to the battlefield, and she left no holes in her face. During the battle, she would cover her face with beetles to protect herself airtight.

At the same time, he used the transformation technique to reveal his face, and paid special attention to the avoidance of his head, deliberately creating the illusion that his face was unprotected, in order to trap such masters of swordsmanship or close combat.

Uchiha Kei quickly figured out the cause and effect. He pointed at the captain with a trembling hand: "Captain, thank you for saying I'm afraid of death every day. You, you are too."

"I'm not afraid of death, Qi. This is the wisdom of fighting and the art of thinking."

Aburame Tetsumaru rearranged the position of the beetle, then used the transformation technique again to change his own face, and continued: "You should study seriously."

"Captain, you are too thick-skinned." Kurama Yun couldn't help but mock. You are really thick-skinned, both physically and mentally.

"Haha," Aburame Tetsumaru laughed, "No, no, no, you are wrong."

【My face is not thick-skinned, but from thick-skinned to close to none.】

…

The melee ended quickly, and the Konoha side did not win in the end. On the one hand, the number of Konoha people was more than a hundred fewer than the Iwa ninjas, and the bigger reason was that the Amegakure ninjas also caught up after reorganizing, forcing Orochimaru.

Had to retreat early.

The brief melee resulted in very heavy casualties on both sides. In just a few minutes, nearly a hundred people were killed or injured on both sides, leaving blood and mutilated limbs all over the ground.

The victorious Iwa ninja were frightened by the huge casualties that broke out in a short period of time, and had no mood to pursue the retreating Konoha ninja.

After that, the two sides temporarily broke away from contact and stopped fighting temporarily.

Of course, we will continue to play today, it is just a temporary short-term modification.

Aburame Tetsumaru and his group of ninjas who participated in the melee went directly to the third line of defense to repair. It was not until everything was settled that Aburame Tetsumaru released the transformation, moved the beetle away, and dealt with his face.

It turned out that although the beetle defended the Iwa Ninja's thrust, it was not able to completely remove all the impact. The huge impact turned the beetle and the sunglasses on the nose into murder weapons, causing serious damage to Aburame Tetsumaru's face.

.

The sunglasses cut deep wounds on both sides of his eyebrows. His nose was hit by a beetle and suffered severe contusions. The most serious injury was that his front teeth were shaken by the impact. According to the criminal law, this is a standard minor injury.

A little blood is nothing to a ninja, but the front teeth have to be handled carefully. If they can't be saved, it will be terrible. The air will leak when talking, the rice will leak when eating, and the food will not taste good.

For foodies, there is no difference between it and the end of the world.
