Chapter 624: The Fall of the Water Kingdom (I)
When the news that Konoha, or the Land of Fire, declared war on the Land of Water spread throughout the ninja world, Shiro, who was in charge of the front battlefield, had already led the senior ninja squad through the space gate, crossed most of the Land of Fire, and arrived at the border of the Land of Water!
Even though the members of the Jonin Squad were battle-hardened, they couldn't help but be surprised.
At this distance, even Minato would find it difficult to cross alone, not to mention that he was leading more than a hundred people, and they didn't seem to be expended much.
Of course, this is the difference between techniques.
The displacement magic has a long transmission distance and consumes little energy, because most of the magic power is provided by the magic workshop. Shiro is only responsible for turning on the switch, and the location is basically fixed. Displacing space involves part of the second method, which Shiro alone cannot handle.
Back to the point, since Shiro and his men came directly to the territory of the Land of Water through the space gate, and their numbers were small, not to mention Kirigakure, even the Kirigakure spies in Konoha did not notice that the Jonin Squad had been suddenly mobilized.
Of course, this is also related to Konoha's strict counter-intelligence system.
In short, due to a series of factors, Shiro and his companions' arrival did not attract anyone's attention.
After the members of the Jonin class passed through the space gate one by one and stood behind Shiro, Shiro's body slowly rose up. At the same time, golden chains flew out from behind him, scattering runes in the air, and gradually disappeared.
A moment later, Shiro finished his preparations, and under the gaze of the senior ninjas, he slowly took out a handful of snake fangs and used magic to shoot them into the ground!
"Ka-ka-ka~~"
Immediately afterwards, a horrifying scene appeared!
Countless skeleton soldiers continuously emerged from the ground!
Although the aura of each of these skeletons is very weak, barely reaching the level of Genin, which is slightly stronger than the newly graduated ninja school students, but there are too many of them!
At this moment, only some of the jonin present who were good at numbers could count them. However, after just a moment, no one could count them except Shiro.
Because the skeletons appeared so quickly, there were hundreds of them, and sometimes even thousands!
However, what puzzled them was that these skeletons were too weak. A single C-rank Water Style would likely kill a whole bunch of them. Furthermore, given the environment of the Water Country, the difficulty of learning Water Style would be reduced by at least one level. Therefore, calling these skeletons cannon fodder was an understatement.
Shiro ignored the puzzled looks of the jonin below and continued to guide the magic silently.
Huh~
Enkidu, who had renewed his contract with Shiro and was thus able to continue staying in this world, gathered beside Shiro in his usual white robe. He looked at the magic performed by Shiro with the help of the Heaven's Chain with great interest and chuckled.
"With your magical proficiency, you don't need to be so cautious, do you? This world's will has already severely overdrawn its own strength and probably won't notice this."
"It's better to be cautious. After all, the Water Country is still one of the five major countries. After all, we are 'thieves'. It's not good to be too high-profile. But you, is it okay? You don't have an 'identity card'. It will be very troublesome if you are found." Hearing this, Shiro glanced at Enkidu, as if testing something.
"Heh~" Enkidu chuckled. Although he hadn't been working with Shiro for long, he still had a rough idea of what kind of person Shiro was. "No need to test him. If you want to know, just ask directly. We are allies now."
After a pause, Enkidu continued with a smile, "As for the issue of identity, Jill has completely resolved it for me. Now I am a legitimate villager of Konoha."
Shiro was stunned, and looked at Enkidu in surprise. He took off his Demon Eyes and a flash of light flashed across his Demon Eyes. "When did you become a member of the ninja world?"
You know, even if it is a system, it won't just stuff Shiro's soul into a random body. If that were the case, he would never be able to extract chakra, and he would probably have died because of bad luck.
He only recently discovered that he was not possessing another's body at all. His mechanism of traveling through time was reincarnation!
It was just that he awakened his innate wisdom at the age of four, but now, such a special existence as Enkidu has completed localization in such a short time. Are all Ahcer's magic tricks so awesome?
Of course, this also indirectly shows that this system is indeed rubbish!
Sighing and mentally complaining about his own useless system, Shiro turned around and continued to perform magic.
At this time, after spreading for a period of time, the Skeleton Sea has been discovered by nearby villages.
As expected, the skeleton appearance of the Dragon Tooth Soldiers brought great shock to the villagers. Before the sea of skeletons approached, they collapsed first and fled in all directions screaming.
This is what Shiro hopes to see. Their panic will inevitably cause difficulties for the Fire Country's follow-up troops to collect. When Shiro and his front line advance step by step, but their work is difficult to move forward, facing the urgent orders from the Daimyo, there will inevitably be some guys with ulterior motives who will take the bait.
As Shiro's thoughts flowed, the Skeleton Sea had already made initial contact with several Mist Ninjas.
Through the magic network that spread throughout the sky, Shiro could clearly sense that these Mist Ninjas were momentarily frightened when they saw the skeletons, but when they discovered the weakness of these skeletons, the fear quickly faded away.
Obviously, although Kirigakure has been intentionally changing the model of the former Blood Mist Village, the quality of the ninja here has not declined much, but has actually improved a lot. In time, it is bound to produce sweet fruits, which will be picked by Konoha.
However, human power is limited. Although these Mist Ninjas were well-trained, they were only Genin after all. They only held on for a few seconds before hastily retreating.
Shiro glanced at the direction they left, but didn't pay any attention to it. He was still preparing for the big move that was about to happen.
In the following time, the Skeleton Sea was discovered by some ninjas one after another. Just like before, these Mist Ninjas only fought briefly and then quickly withdrew, bringing intelligence back to the village continuously.
Just like that, three days passed, and hundreds of thousands of Skeleton Sea came into contact with the first line of defense of Kirigakure!
However, faced with such a huge number, there was no fear in the eyes of the Mist Ninja, but rather a gradual confusion.
Because after two days of contact, they can confirm that these skeletons are very weak. Although their numbers are increasing, their individual strength is getting weaker.
If the Skeleton Sea three days ago still had the strength of an average Genin, then now, any ordinary person can defeat two or three of them!
Some skeletons even scattered while walking. Because there were too many of them, and the Water Country was not a wide land, they were crowded and scattered.
But is it really that simple?
Most people don't believe it
But no matter how weak the Skeleton Sea is, the Mist Ninjas cannot just sit there and do nothing.
A debt king once said that when something happens, you can't just sit and wait for death!
So, this scene appeared.
Hundreds of Mist Ninjas were scattered in front of the battle line. With Shiro's smile, they launched a joint ninjutsu.
"Joint Ninjutsu: Great Explosive Water Wave!"
As an A-level ninjutsu, the power of the Great Explosion Water Wave is already quite good. Now it is a joint ninjutsu performed by hundreds of people, and the place is surrounded by the sea. A shocking scene appeared.
A massive tsunami of over 30 meters high suddenly struck the center of this island nation!
However, this terrifying blow completely put Shilang's heart at ease.
When the huge waves smashed all the skeletons, Shilang put his hands together in front of his chest and slowly opened
"Have you ever heard of the Scourge of the Undead?"
