I don't believe in the will of fire

"He Zai!!!"

Feeling the change in the air, Akio shouted, and the strong ninja named Kazai had already prepared his ninjutsu.

"Leave it to me, the art of earth escape and sky cover"

Hezai was seen facing the sky, spraying out countless amounts of clay. After condensing in the air, it formed a protective layer of earth like a big umbrella, covering the top of the Daimyo's chariots and horses.

After piercing the big umbrella, Mizuki Senbon fell into it and was unable to break free.

And the ninja with the Wind Escape Swordsmanship last night had already received the seal.

"Wind Escape·Thousand-faced Wind"

Countless wind blades turned into fierce winds, instantly covering the entire forest. The fog was soon blown away, but everyone was not happy for long. Countless explosions rang out from the sky cover above their heads, visible to the naked eye.

The large umbrella made of clay quickly fell apart under the explosion, countless rubble fell, and kunai with detonating talismans fell from the sky in a blaze of flames.

"boom..."

The explosion sounded, and the Daimyo's carriage was blown to pieces in an instant, but the Daimyo was fine. He had already been taken out of the carriage by the remaining five ninjas, but even so, he seemed very nervous in the face of the sudden attack.

Embarrassed.

"Who dares to attack me!"

As he finished speaking, he saw countless masked ninjas appearing in the surrounding forest, centered on the daimyo's motorcade.

Akio immediately recognized the mask and asked sharply.

"You are the assassination force of Kirigakure Village!!! Do you know the meaning of the daimyo representatives who attacked us from the Land of Fire?"

But these ninjas didn't say a word. The leader, a ninja with a long knife on his waist, waved his hand. In an instant, all the ninjas from the Mist Ninja Assassination Team rushed up and started killing without any emotion.

.

"Protect the Daimyo!!!"

The samurai rushed forward, but as the guardians of the twelve ninjas, they only had one task, which was to protect the daimyo. They didn't care much about the lives and deaths of other people.

It was also the first time for the daimyo to see such a bloody scene. Although the strength of the samurai was powerful, it was still not enough to see in front of the ninja. Seeing the samurai who protected him die one by one, his eyes were filled with fear, and he huddled in front of Akio and the others.

Protect the back.

"Protect the Daimyo and evacuate here!"

It was obviously impossible for Akio to wait until everyone was killed and then let the fog ninjas surround them. Therefore, while the fog ninjas were fighting with the samurai, two people supported the daimyo, and the others protected him from behind and rushed towards the encirclement.

Got out.

These eight people were all jounin after all, and they quickly broke through the encirclement.

"Chase!"

——————

"wrong!!!"

Akio, who was escaping, looked back from time to time to look at the Kirigakure ninjas who were pursuing him, but found out strangely that their pursuit was not so fierce, but instead seemed to let them escape.

"what happened?"

Just when he was confused, he soon got the answer.

"when?"

In front of his eyes, a lake suddenly appeared with a faint mist floating on it.

"impossible."

As the guardians of the daimyo, they are very clear about the daimyo's route, where are the mountains, where are the rivers, and even every plant and tree. Only in this way can the safety of the daimyo be ensured.

He was certain that there was absolutely no such lake here before.

Moreover, the diameter of this lake is two kilometers. Looking at the surrounding environment, it is full of mountains and rocks. It is the best place for an ambush. It is obviously impossible to go around.

This is obviously a trap.

Several of his companions also noticed something was wrong, but looking at the pursuing Kirigakure ninjas behind them, they had no choice but to guess that it might be a trap.

"be careful."

"Um!!!"

Everyone nodded, stepped carefully on the lake, and fled forward.

Akio paid close attention to the surrounding area with a nervous expression, sensing the subtle changes that might occur. But for some reason, they walked for a long time but did not go out even though it was only a two-kilometer road. The lakeshore visible to the naked eye was not far away from the field of vision.

But it seemed like it was the end of the world, and there was nowhere to go. The fog ninja chasing behind him had long since disappeared.

"Stop!!!"

The experience of being a Jonin made Akio understand something instantly.

"What's wrong?"

The other ninjas didn't know what was going on. Only Akio said: "We seem to be under an illusion."

"What!!!"

Everyone mobilized the chakra in their bodies and prepared to dispel the illusion.

"Illusion Solution!!!"

But when I opened my eyes, nothing seemed to have changed in front of me.

"what happened?"

At this moment, the fog on the lake became thicker, and at the same time, it began to feel rough underfoot.

When I looked down, I saw that the water on the lake had become thicker and covered the feet of these people.

"!!!"

Everyone jumped up in a hurry and formed seals with Zai at the same time.

"Earth Release: The Art of Mountain Earth"

I saw a large ball of soil spurting out from his mouth. After landing on the lake, it quickly sank. Then in a second, a small mountain rose from the ground.

Everyone landed on this mountain and finally had a small place to stay.

As for the daimyo, he had a golden body, and after such a torment, he had already fainted with foaming at the mouth.

"What to do, Akio!"

Everyone looked around, and as the fog became thicker, the lakeshore in front seemed to become more distant.

Akio didn't look good, because based on the illusion in front of him, he guessed something, but he couldn't be sure.

He said to the ninja using Wind Release: "Haoji, use Wind Release in that direction."

Although he didn't understand why, Hao Er still obediently used Wind Escape in the direction of the lake shore.

"Wind Escape·Thousand-faced Wind"

Then, in the horrified eyes of everyone, as the strong wind blew by, the water bank of the lake in front was blown away like smoke and disappeared.

"really!"

Akio then confirmed, but his face became even more ugly. He looked around at the quiet surroundings without any sound and said.

"If I guess correctly, this should be the illusion that the second generation Mizukage of Kirigakure Village was once proud of: Magic Steam Pavilion. Everything we see is just a false mirage. From the beginning, we

Just spinning in circles on the lake, and after the death of the second generation Mizukage, the only person to inherit the reputation of this technique is the legendary genius ninja of the Oniden clan: Raizo Oniden, right, Lord Raizo."

After the words fell, and after a few seconds of silence, a deep voice finally came from all directions in the mist.

"As expected of the Twelve Ninjas who protect the name of the Land of Fire. Under such circumstances, you can still be so calm and guess my identity. It's a pity that you will all die here today."

After getting the confirmation, Akio's face turned pale because he knew that he and the others might not be able to escape.

But he still looked around and said without giving up.

"Lord Raizo should understand what it means to kill a daimyo, even a daimyo from a hostile country."

After finishing speaking, he did not forget to add more emphasis: "I heard that Lord Raizo once competed for the position of the Third Mizukage, but unfortunately failed. From this point of view, this mission should be the order of the Third Mizukage of your village. I

You can promise here that if we can be spared this time, when we go back, I will definitely ask the daimyo to write a letter to the daimyo of your country to support Raizo-sama and regain the position of Mizukage."

The air was quiet for a while, and then he got a cold reply.

"It's a boring trick. Instead of sowing discord here, let's think about how to survive the next trick."

"Water Escape·Blister Technique"

Visible to the naked eye, countless water bubbles rise from the surface of the lake...
