"Will of Fire! Will of Fire!" shouted the many ninjas below.
It has to be said that Sarutobi's words were quite inspiring, and Tianqi's blood was also boiling as he listened to the crowd's shouts of the Will of Fire.
"Let's make this our first and decisive battle, let's go!" Sarutobi waved his hand and charged out first, followed closely by the other ninjas, with Tenki also mingling in the crowd.
The ninjas traversed the snow-covered ground, advancing approximately five kilometers before the Cloud Ninja army appeared. Upon meeting, the two sides immediately engaged in a chaotic melee, unlike ancient armies which had formations and ranks, and there was no concept of generals or commanders.
They just beat up whoever they didn't like. If one person couldn't beat them, two people would do it. If you called for backup, I would call for backup too, and the scene would become chaotic.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Amidst the resounding explosions, both Konoha and Kumogakure continued their fierce battles, with new corpses and severed limbs constantly appearing on the battlefield.
On Tianqi's side, blocking his way were three genin and five chunin.
"Eight against one? Interesting. They think I'm easy prey. Come on!" Just as Tianqi was about to make his move with his kunai, the system issued a new mission.
Ding! Mission issued: 100 Kills. Eliminating 100 enemies will earn you 300,000 points. Enemies include genin, chunin, and jonin. Failure to complete the mission will result in immediate elimination.
Tianqi was also slightly surprised. On average, each of the hundred people would get 3,000 points, which is the same as the points obtained from killing Chunin in the previous mission. In other words, killing Chunin was not a loss, Genin was a huge profit, and Jonin would be a loss.
"Hehe, Kumogakure's chunin and genin, sorry." Blame the system, you're on the system's kill list.
"Since there's a mission, the kunai isn't really suitable," Tianqi said, throwing the kunai aside and immediately switching to the Tang Hengdao, activating the Three-Tomoe and charging out.
In just a moment, Tian Qi, who already possessed the strength of a Shadow, directly killed five weaklings.
Just as Tianqi had dealt with five people and was about to charge into the enemy ranks, several more Chunin jumped out.
They probably thought he was young and easy to bully, so many people chose to go after him.
Unfortunately, since yesterday, Tianqi of Kaleidoscope has undergone a tremendous change in strength. Dealing with these newbies is like slicing a watermelon; he takes them down one by one.
Then Tianqi immediately activated the passive skill "Illusory Transformation" and charged into the middle of the Cloud Ninja like a humanoid behemoth, wreaking havoc.
With a series of splattering sounds, after killing more than twenty people, the Yunren also noticed Tianqi.
The glory of his individual battle finally attracted the attention of the opposing powerhouses. Two elite Jonin appeared in front of Tian Qi. Without the slightest hesitation, they immediately formed hand seals and released ninjutsu at Tian Qi.
Fire Release: Great Flame Bullet
"Wind Release - Great Breakthrough"
The fire was fueled by the wind, and the wind fueled the fire. The two people actually unleashed a combination ninjutsu, and the two ninjutsu combined successfully achieved a result greater than the sum of its parts.
Seeing a massive fireball hurtling towards him, Tian Qi remained completely calm and used his Divine Might's teleportation ability to store the fireball in his Divine Might space.
This scene terrified the two cloud ninjas.
"What happened? How did the ninjutsu suddenly disappear?"
"Be careful, this person is strange." After saying that, he held the kunai and looked at Tian Qi warily.
"You're still too green to play with fire with the Uchiha!" Tianqi quickly formed hand seals.
Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation
That's right! It was the ninjutsu that Kabuto Yakushi used to resurrect Madara Uchiha through the Impure World Reincarnation, and it was used against the Allied Shinobi Forces in their first appearance. This ninjutsu had a particularly large range, and it took 20 Allied Shinobi Forces using Water Release at the same time to barely block it.
"Tianqi is so energetic!" Sarutobi, who was standing to the side, also noticed Tianqi's ninjutsu. With such a wide range, it was impossible not to notice. He then quickened his movements.
"Holy crap! This ninjutsu has a wide attack range! Is this kid really that strong?"
"Stop talking nonsense and quickly form hand seals to defend yourself, or you'll be roasted meat in no time."
After saying this, the two Cloud Ninja quickly formed hand seals, and just as the fire was about to reach them, they finally completed the seals.
"Water Escape-Water Formation Wall"
Two walls of water rose directly in front of them, blocking the oncoming fire. Immediately, water mist rose up, obscuring everyone's view.
They were fine because they blocked the way, but the Cloud Ninja next to them suffered. Suddenly, a mass appeared in front of them for no reason, and the genin who didn't react in time was burned alive.
Chunin and Jonin are fine, since it's an area-of-effect ninjutsu. With such a large range, speed is naturally difficult, making it easy to dodge.
Tian Qi, however, was not idle. Taking advantage of the obstructed vision of the Cloud Ninja by using the effect of the water mist, he activated his Sharingan and reaped the heads as if nothing had happened.
Ah! Ah! Ah! Help, help!
Hearing cries for help coming from the mist, the two Cloud Ninjas reacted.
"Oh no, it's that brat! Quickly disperse the mist!" The two then formed hand seals and used Wind Release to disperse the mist.
Then, another dozen or so people lay at Tian Qi's feet.
"Damn brat! A few of you, this kid is strange, let's take care of him first!" He then immediately found a few helpers and rushed towards Tianqi.
Holy crap, a few more Jonin have arrived. This is infuriating! Killing Jonin is a waste of effort and doesn't even earn you any points. Anyone who does it is an idiot!
Seeing that several more Jonin had arrived, Tianqi turned around and began to move around the battlefield, dodging their attacks while also picking up a few heads from the smaller Karami.
Seeing that they couldn't catch up with Tianqi, and that he could dodge every ninjutsu attack while also killing a few lower-level ninjas, the Cloud Ninja were enraged.
"You brat, don't you dare run away! If I catch you, I'll teach you a lesson!"
"If I catch you, I'll tear you to pieces!"
"You big oafs of the Cloud Ninja, I'm not stupid. A bunch of you ganging up on me, am I supposed to just run away and wait to be hacked down?" Tian Qi was overjoyed. There weren't many Jonin in each village to begin with, and he was dragging along about five Jonin, and he could also pick off some enemies and earn points. It was a great deal.
Just as Tianqi was in the midst of the fierce fighting, both sides simultaneously issued the order to retreat.
Seeing the five Jonin who had been chasing him retreat with gritted teeth, Tianqi had no choice but to give up and retreat with the people of Konoha.
In the main camp's meeting room, Tobirama Senju was angrily pointing at the map and cursing.
"I didn't expect the Cloud Ninja to be so strong. In this battle, our losses were almost the same as theirs. This can't go on, damn the Cloud Ninja!"
No one dared to speak when they saw Tobirama Senju's angry face. Homura Mitokado and Torifu Akimichi also chose to remain silent. (The author checked the information and found that Torifu Akimichi was also Tobirama Senju's apprentice, so he's included here.)
At this moment, Shimura Danzo spoke up. He was Tobirama's apprentice and he wasn't afraid.
