Since the ninja from the Musashi family did not escape, people guessed his fate, but no one could draw a direct conclusion since they had not seen it with their own eyes.
The head of the Musashi family had a face as black as the bottom of a pot, and the heads of other families also looked unhappy. They thought they could use smoke bombs to catch Furukawa and others off guard, but they didn't expect to be targeted. They lost a combat force right at the beginning, and the situation immediately became unfavorable to them.
However, Furukawa and his team did not act rashly. After all, it was a five-on-five battle. The opponent's loss of one man was an advantage, but the advantage was not obvious. They still had to proceed steadily.
The remaining four ninjas did not lose their composure because of this, but quickly dispersed and threw out a large number of black balls, covering the entire venue with smoke in just a few seconds.
Although they suffered a loss in the smoke just now, it did not change their advantage in sound positioning. After the competition a few days ago, they had already formulated a tactic in advance, which was to use smoke to block their vision and maximize their sound positioning skills.
Although Furukawa and his men had been trained in sound positioning, it was impossible for them to defeat the ninjas from the Japanese island nation in just a few days, especially since these ninjas were the best among the ninjas.
So when the smoke appeared and covered the entire venue, Wu Qingchuan and Gu Peng looked a little ugly.
Even if Gu Peng had a high level of cultivation, it would be impossible for him to see what was going on inside through the smoke.
Just when the two were getting anxious, a sharp whistle was heard from the smoke. The sounds were of different lengths and had obvious differences in pitch. It was obviously the way the ninjas of the Japanese island country used to convey messages.
From this, we can see that the ninjas from the Japanese island country have really put a lot of effort into today's competition. Not only do they want to maximize the effect of the smoke, they even developed a plan in advance to use whistles to transmit messages. In this way, even if there are only four of them left, with the advantage of locating by sound and the convenience of whistles to transmit messages, it will be difficult for Furukawa and others to win.
What made Wu Qingchuan and Gu Peng even more worried was that a sound of breaking air was heard from the smoke, followed by a large number of hidden weapons flying out of the smoke.
None of these flying hidden weapons hit the target, but from the sounds of the hidden weapons being activated, we could tell that the remaining four ninjas must have used all their strength. Those hidden weapons that did not fly out were either blocked by Furukawa and the others, or hit the target.
For a moment, Wu Qingchuan and Gu Peng were also a little nervous, because Guchuan and the others were in a very dangerous situation. They were completely in a passive situation and it was difficult to launch an effective counterattack.
If things continue to develop like this, no matter how high the cultivation level of Guchuan and the others is, they will be defeated sooner or later.
Unless all the hidden weapons carried by the four ninjas are used up.
But they were obviously well prepared, so how could they have so few hidden weapons on them?
As the whistling sounds in the smoke became more and more frequent, everyone present couldn't help but sweat, especially the Xia people who were watching the battle nearby, whose faces turned red.
I've never seen anyone so shameless!
On the other hand, those who were watching the battle in the Japanese island nation thought it was normal and did not feel embarrassed at all. Even the families of Koga Makura showed obviously proud expressions.
Chen Qiu also became nervous when he saw this, and subconsciously wanted to find Shen Qi, but found that Shen Qi was standing outside the crowd and had no intention of showing his face.
There was no way. If Hattori Ichikawa saw Shen Qi, he would definitely run away immediately, and then the rest of the story would be meaningless.
Only by making Hattori Ikawa feel that he is the most powerful among all the people present can we truly see what kind of person Hattori Ikawa is. Shen Qi will also decide his future attitude towards Hattori Ikawa based on Hattori Ikawa's performance.
In desperation, Shen Qiu had to squeeze out of the crowd to find Shen Qi.
"Second Grandpa, Gu Chuan and the others are not doing well right now."
Shen Qi said, "Don't worry. If they can't even pass this test, it only proves that their cultivation is not enough. Although the smoke will obscure their vision and the Japanese ninjas will use hidden weapons and whistles to attack, this will not change the cultivation and combat power of the Japanese ninjas. As long as Furukawa and the others can adapt to the environment in the smoke, they still have a great chance of winning."
Having said that, Chen Qiu was still anxious. After all, Guchuan and the others were at a clear disadvantage. Once they were seriously injured in the smoke, they would not be able to perform at their best even if their cultivation and combat power were high.
But seeing that Shen Qi still looked calm, he had no choice but to suppress his worries and hope that Guchuan and others could find an opportunity to turn the situation around as soon as possible.
In the smoke, Furukawa and his four companions had gathered together. Furukawa stood in the middle, and the other four blocked Furukawa in the middle. In this way, as long as the four of them could block the oncoming hidden weapons, Furukawa would not have to worry about being attacked.
Of course, this does not mean that Furukawa has to do nothing. In fact, Furukawa’s task is the most important and critical.
He would counterattack based on the location of the whistling sounds, and the weapons he would use to counterattack would be the hidden weapons caught by others.
Don't think that Furukawa and the others don't know how to use hidden weapons. It's just that the education and environment they grew up in made them believe that using hidden weapons is a dishonorable move, and they will not use it easily unless it is absolutely necessary. But now the time has come when they have no other choice.
So when Guchuan had accumulated five hidden weapons in his hand, he took decisive action and threw all five hidden weapons according to the direction and changes of the whistle sound.
Furukawa's method of throwing hidden weapons is different from that of the Japanese ninjas, because the Japanese ninjas use hidden weapons mainly for sneak attacks, trying not to make any noise as much as possible, and then use the cover of smoke to achieve the best sneak attack effect. But Furukawa is different. He will infuse his internal energy into the hidden weapons to make the hidden weapons exert their maximum power. More importantly, the hidden weapons infused with internal energy fly faster, and a distance of more than ten meters can be reached almost instantly. As long as the position of the Japanese ninjas can be accurately judged, it will be difficult for the opponent to dodge.
Sure enough, as soon as Furukawa made a move, a scream was heard from ten meters away.
Don't blame the Japanese ninjas for not being able to endure pain. It's because Furukawa attacked with hatred and without any intention of showing any mercy. Even a thin needle falling into Furukawa's hands can easily penetrate the human body. If it hits a vital point, the opponent is likely to die on the spot. Even if it doesn't hit a vital point, the powerful force can make the opponent lose most of its combat power in an instant.
This was the case with the ninja who was hit. He was running at full speed when a fine needle pierced his right leg. The severe pain made him lose control of his right leg instantly. He fell out and slid more than five meters under the influence of strong inertia before stopping. The scream just now was made when he was sliding on the ground.
When the onlookers heard the screams of the Japanese ninja, they were suddenly shocked.
The battle situation finally took a turn for the better!
