Chapter 208 ApfelGeschossen
In this way, Shiro secretly mobilized his chakra while he and Dai slowly rushed towards Nakamura and the others.
After receiving the prompt, Nakamura and the others summoned the giant birds, and Shiro and the others also gathered there.
On the other hand, since they had already decided to retreat, the Raikage let them do what they wanted, since the mission target was not lost anyway.
In fact, the most important thing is that there are too many geniuses in Konoha here. If they are killed, the conflict with Konoha will be too great. Under the guidance of someone with ulterior motives, it will easily trigger a war between the two countries.
At the same time, after fighting with Dai, the Thunder Shadow also vaguely felt the threat from Dai. He had a premonition that if a fight really broke out, he would probably die.
Although he himself did not believe this, he still gave the order to retreat for the sake of caution, and therefore turned a blind eye to the behavior of Nakamura and his men's psychic giant bird.
Moreover, to prevent any accidents, he stood in front of Ai and the Cloud Ninja, covering their slow retreat.
On the other hand, because Shiro was worried that Dai's Jingmen would not be able to hold out for long, and he was also afraid that the opponent would run out of the range of the Noble Phantasm, Shiro moved a little faster.
Before the Raikage and his men retreated far, Shiro and his men had already gathered under the giant bird. At this time, Shiro's chakra had also been gathered, and he suddenly clenched his right hand behind him!
A black crossbow appeared in his hand!
"An Arrow of Trust Released"
Rank: C Type: Anti-personnel Noble Phantasm
Range: 1~50 Max Capture: 1
Apfel Geschossen.
Translated as "shooting apples".
A legendary arrow shot with a crossbow, perfectly piercing the apple placed on his son's head.
This arrow, released with the son's trust in his father, will never miss and will "definitely" penetrate the target object.
After this story was sublimated into a Noble Phantasm, it could even interfere with the law of causality, making it essentially impossible to avoid.
This is Shiro's trump card!
This arrow involved cause and effect, and the Raikage could definitely not block it, so it doomed the death of that Cloud Ninja!
The reason why Shiro didn't use this against Ai was not only because he was worried about completely angering the Raikage and causing Dai's death, but also because this move might not be able to break Ai's defense.
Ai was lying on the ground at this time. It had to be said that it was too difficult for Shilang to stand on the ground and shoot him with a crossbow, even if it was an arrow that was sure to hit the target.
This treasure means that the shot will not miss, but Shiro still needs to take rough aim. It is impossible to not aim at all and just throw the hand to shoot and expect it to hit the target.
Sorry, that kind of Noble Phantasm is not something that Shiro can project now.
Furthermore, the range of this Noble Phantasm is very short, which means that it cannot be used to shoot from a high position. Therefore, it is impossible to shoot Ai, who is in the blind spot of the field of vision.
Then, the remaining targets are very clear. Needless to say, the Raikage’s defense will definitely not be broken, as for the other senior ninjas.
Shiro still thought it was unnecessary. This time, even the Raikage was sacrificed just to bring back this target, although Ai and Killer Bee were factors involved.
But it can also be seen that the Raikage attaches great importance to this mission. Moreover, several Kumogakure jonin died in this mission, and so many people were sent to rescue him for his sake.
Shiro can only be liberated once at the moment. In this case, who to shoot is obvious.
After projecting the Noble Phantasm, Shiro did not hesitate, immediately raised it, aimed it at the target, and then released his real name while pulling the trigger!
"ApfelGeschossen, the arrow of trust released!"
"Uncle Dai! Retreat!"
After shooting the crossbow arrow, Shilang did not look at the inevitable result, but called out to Dai, then turned around and jumped onto the giant bird. At the same time, Nakamura and others, who had been prepared, started the giant bird and quickly rose up the moment Dai and Shilang jumped up!
On the other side, the Raikage also saw the arrow that was shot at him, but he was not too surprised. In fact, he had been guarding against their sneak attack for a long time.
Konoha has mobilized so many people, it is impossible for it to give up easily. If you put yourself in their shoes, if it were him, he would also choose to kill the target directly after failing to capture him.
Therefore, facing this surprise attack, the Raikage was not surprised at all, and everything was as expected.
Unfortunately, things are not as simple as the Raikage thought. What Shiro shot was not an ordinary arrow, but a treasure with the law of cause and effect.
When the Raikage's right fist hit the crossbow arrow and he thought it was over, a shocking scene happened!
In his perception, the world seemed to turn gray, and where his right hand touched the crossbow arrow, flashes of light like lightning flashed by!
Then, he was horrified to find that the crossbow arrow had passed him at some point and shot straight towards the head of the Cloud Ninja!
Then, go straight through!
In shock, the Raikage looked at the crossbow arrow that had pierced his head and was slowly dissipating. He felt a burning pain on his face and the anger in his heart grew stronger and stronger!
Then, he roared and stomped his foot hard! He turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed straight towards Shilang and the others who were flying in the air!
Seeing this, the people on the giant bird felt a little nervous. After all, if they were hit down now, it would mean they were basically finished.
However, this does not include Shiro and Dai, who are very confident in the Eight Gates.
In the original novel, Dai relied on the Death Gate to cripple the seven people in one fell swoop!
He is not some ugly guy. As the ace of Kirigakure, he must be at least an elite jonin, and a more outstanding one among them.
After all, it is not easy to achieve this in Kirigakure where there are many bloodline successors. Therefore, in a horizontal comparison, how strong is Dai who can kill them in seconds?
Although Dai is not in the state of death at this time, his strength is still stronger than in the original book.
Because Shilang would bring them some tonics from time to time that could replenish their physical damage, making their strength stronger than that of their peers.
The most important thing is that under Shiro's influence, Dai had already developed the prototype of the Day Tiger and other moves related to the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu before Kai.
However, so far, it is basically just Dai's idea, because no one can force him to open the seventh door. Not to mention the seventh door, even the first door is rarely opened.
Because he is just a Genin, Shiro is the only one who knows his strength, so the missions he performs are very simple and do not require the Eight Gates at all.
However, now I can give it a try. Dai has been working hard to maintain the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu, and it is also for this moment to come.
Therefore, Dai was a little excited!
Dai first took a deep breath, took a stance on the giant bird, then suddenly jumped up and punched out with his right fist!
"Skyrocket!"
At this time, the Day Tiger had not been fully developed and did not have the shape of a tiger's head. Therefore, it was not yet called the Day Tiger, but was called the relatively low-brow Sky Cannon. Needless to say, this was another name given by Shiro.
As Dai Chongtian Pao fired, he also ran out of energy, came out of the Jingmen state, and fell on the back of the giant bird.
The Raikage was in a more miserable situation. The power of the sky cannon was not weak to begin with, and it might not have been able to hurt the Raikage, but he was in the air now, so the Raikage was directly knocked down by the sky cannon.
Shiro and the others ignored the Raikage who was falling with a look of unwillingness on his face. They wanted to take this opportunity to fly higher, otherwise when the Raikage jumped up again, no one would be able to stop him this time.
