When the flames covered the entire valley, no Sand Ninja dared to think of fighting back or escaping.

Because the ninja who thought so had already lost his life in the flames, his body was burned into charcoal and quickly turned into ashes in the raging fire.

The surviving Sand Village ninjas either used ninjutsu or dug pits by force, and they are still alive today thanks to the cover of the earth.

They all huddled in caves of different sizes, looking up at the blood-red sky above the wellhead. Their faces were as pale as paper, reflecting the red light under the firelight.

Faced with this natural disaster-like ninjutsu, everyone felt fortunate, but at the same time they also had an incomparable doubt: Could it be that the Third Hokage of Konoha Village, Sarutobi Hiruzen, had come to River Country in person?

Fire Release is the most popular ninjutsu in the ninja world, especially the Uchiha clan and the Sarutobi clan are very good at it.

Correspondingly, there is no Ninjutsu above A-level for Fire Release, and it all relies on chakra and control to increase its power, which means it is very dependent on personal ability.

Therefore, all the Sand Village ninjas present had never seen or even heard of this kind of fire jutsu that could fill the entire valley.

But they were all very sure that the ninja who used this ninjutsu must be a powerful Kage-level ninja, but no one could guess who he was.

There are two most likely ninjas, namely the two ninja family heads who are best at Fire Release, Uchiha Fugaku of the Uchiha family, and Sarutobi Hiruzen of the Sarutobi family.

As the oldest ninja among the survivors, Fusha was the first to rule out these two people as suspects.

Uchiha Fugaku's nickname is "Evil Eyes". His famous ability is the Sharingan, but he is not good at using fire jutsu.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is the third Hokage of Konoha Village, nicknamed "Doctor of Ninjutsu". He is best at combination ninjutsu and large-scale ninjutsu, but even in the most exaggerated legends, he has never performed such horrific ninjutsu.

After ruling out the biggest suspect, Fusha carefully reviewed the Kage-level strongmen in the ninja world, but he was completely dumbfounded by the result.

There is no such person in the ninja world!

…

On the other side, Uchiha You was also confused.

He had never imagined in his dreams that the ninjutsu he performed with all his strength would be so destructive. The entire valley was covered in flames, and the four ninjas turned into ashes on the spot.

I have to say that this fire is more or less similar to the fire that happened when Uncle Ban fought alone against an army of tens of thousands.

Uchiha You was now gasping for breath. This attack consumed one-fifth of his chakra and half of his natural energy. The violent energy fluctuations made him feel flustered and short of breath.

But he also knew that he had made a mistake. He underestimated his own strength and the power of his ninjutsu.

Now after re-estimation, Uchiha You's chances of defeating the Sand Village ninja have reached at least 90%. Previously, based on the 50% standard, all the tactical arrangements he designated were nonsense.

If he had known that the magic was so powerful, he should have sneaked over quietly, even if it was just a few hundred meters closer to the bottom of the valley. That way, he could have wiped out the two independent teams of Sand Village in one go, instead of only killing four ninjas like he did now.

Now, although everyone has burns, the surviving Genin is even burned black and red, and the Genin puppeteer is the most seriously injured. This is the result of not paying attention to physical training and having poor reaction speed. Even if he makes the most correct choice, he is unable to execute it well.

It was because they were several hundred meters away that the speed of Fire Style gave the ninjas enough time to react, allowing most of the Sand Village ninjas to escape the clutches of death.

However, all the Sand Village ninjas were injured.

Uchiha You dissipated his fairy chakra. The energy balance in his body had reached its limit. Naturally, the energy could no longer be used, and he was unable to perform such a powerful fairy technique.

On the other hand, his re-estimated chances of winning gave him unprecedented confidence.

Uchiha You said proudly: "Although I can no longer use senjutsu, my ninjutsu, taijutsu and magical powers are no problem. Let me verify what level I have reached."

After saying that, he leaped forward, turned into a gust of wind and rushed towards the Sand Village ninjas who were starting to flee separately. He continuously performed the instant body movement technique and caught up with the first target in only seven or eight seconds.

Then Uchiha You restrained his breath, his figure flashed and stuck closely behind the special jonin of Sand Village, and the straight sword was unsheathed silently.

The special jonin of Sunagakure noticed something, roared, turned around and scattered shurikens in succession.

But when he turned around, he saw nothing, and all his shurikens missed. The Sand Ninja suppressed the fear in his heart, and quickly formed seals with his hands, squeezing out chakra like crazy.

Wind Style: Sand Spin

The strong wind swept up the fine sand, rotating clockwise with the ninja's body as the center and spreading outward. This was a ninjutsu that was closer to defense.

The Jonin was particularly smart. When he saw that the enemy was able to approach him from behind silently, he realized that his reaction speed was not as fast as the enemy, so he prepared a rare defensive wind-style ninjutsu in advance.

The moment he turned around and couldn't see the enemy anymore, he used this rare wind escape technique, trying to force the enemy back and save his own life.

But the difference in strength cannot be changed by awareness and intelligence. Just as he was forming a seal, Uchiha You went around behind him again and pierced his heart with the straight sword along the gap between the third and fourth ribs without any hindrance.

The stab was so swift that Uchiha You had already drawn his sword and walked away. The Sand Village ninja was actually able to successfully perform a ninjutsu.

Afterwards, this special jonin of Sunagakure felt his chest suddenly tighten, and he let out a long breath uncontrollably.

The lungs and heart were pierced from behind. The severe pain and the trunk muscles instinctively squeezed the wound with all their strength. The extreme tension of the muscles caused the lungs to contract to the limit, forcing all the air out.

The injured jonin opened his mouth, but no sound came out, nor could he breathe again. He slowly fell to the ground and died.

In two encounters, Uchiha You easily defeated this special jonin by using quick body-flickering techniques and simple illusion techniques.

At the moment of completing the fatal blow, he stared blankly at the tip of the sword for a second, then his confidence surged and he pounced on the next target without hesitation.

On the other side, Miwa Masayo's movements were even faster than Uchiha Yu's.

When the contractor's fairy flame enveloped the valley, Miwa Masayo also realized that both Uchiha Yu and himself had seriously underestimated himself.

With such a magical fire technique covering the entire area, why would you even consider retreating?

Just kill them.

Fairy Magic: Flame Jump

Fairy Magic: Pure White Claws

Miwa Masayo's target was the Sand Village jonin who had just jumped out of the cave.

Under the control of the tabby cat, the flame at the entrance of this Jonin's cave suddenly exploded, and the flame instantly expanded from one or two inches to more than a foot. The rising flame scared him.

Just as the Sand Village jonin tried to stay away from the flames, a tabby cat suddenly jumped out of Yuedong's flames. Her white glove-like claws opened like plum blossoms, and pure white flames burned on each sharp claw.

The flame was so pure and steady, like five small, silky ribbons.

It is said that a cat's reaction speed is four times faster than that of a human, and that the cat fairy's reaction speed is even faster.

Before the Sand Village jonin could react, the tiny cat's paw dragged five pure white flames and gently hit the back of his neck.

The moment of contact, half of the Sand Village jonin's neck disappeared. The broken cervical vertebrae could not support his head, so it naturally flipped backwards and hung on his back.

An expression of disbelief froze on the jonin's face. He died before he could do anything.
