The rolling dark clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker, and in the gaps between the clouds, a few flashes of lightning gradually appeared. Not only were there strong winds and heavy rains, but it seemed that lightning also came to join in the fun. The power of nature always brings great pressure to people.

"Kakashi, although we have all determined that this may be the enemy's best chance, the situation is so bad that it is actually disadvantageous to both sides, right?"

If the situation continues, a thunderstorm may occur. This is not just a simple rainstorm. The environment on the sea is actually quite dangerous.

For a ninja, as long as he is not hit directly by lightning, the possibility of immediate death is not great. However, you must know that sea water is a good conductor of electric charge. Even if it does not hit, if the lightning does not fall too far, it will cause great damage to the ninja and greatly interfere with the progress of the battle. In this kind of chaotic battle, luck may become the most important determining factor.

Kakashi looked at the lightning flashing between the clouds in the sky with worry, and said anxiously: "In fact, this is more disadvantageous to us, Mizuki, this time, we actually have the advantage. As long as we don't lose our composure, the enemy has no chance. But in this situation, you and I are tied up, and we may not be able to take care of both in many cases."

"Indeed." Shuimu wiped the rain running down his cheeks to make his vision a little clearer.

"If Orochimaru hadn't come in person, you and I would have nothing to fear. But I didn't expect the village to have other plans!"

"There's nothing we can do about it. If we can kill Orochimaru, it will solve the problem once and for all."

"Once and for all?" Mizuki smiled. If we must give the people of the ninja world a stereotyped label, Orochimaru, who symbolizes the resurrected white snake, has the strongest ability to save his life, and his own strength is also quite strong. He is not that easy to deal with. Even if Danzo puts all his efforts and Jiraiya joins, he may not be able to do it. It is easy to defeat but difficult to kill.

At this moment, a dazzling light flashed, followed by a loud bang, and a bolt of lightning fell on the tallest mast of the battleship. Fortunately, there was no one nearby and no damage was caused.

"Damn it, I can't really use my full strength in this situation." His physical skills were average, and his ninjutsu was only fire escape. With the heavy rain on the sea, it was obviously a waste of time. Illusion was okay, and it might come in handy, but the sealing technique that could bring out the most strength, as two lightning bolts hit the nearby water, most of the weak jellyfish died immediately.

"What bad luck, Shuimu, is there any way to solve it?"

"It's not bad. There is a barrier I set up on the ship. It's not that easy to break through. Let's be safe for now and see if we can delay the time."

"Delaying time? That's not what I do. You know my chakra level..." Kakashi said with a wry smile.

"Hope that the opponent has bad luck and gets killed by lightning?"

"Are you still in the mood to joke at this time?" Kakashi pulled open his forehead protector, revealing his Sharingan, and saw a hint of disharmony through the rain.

"Here we go, be careful."

"I know. Just watch me."

Mizuki bit his index fingers, quickly formed seals, and then pressed his hands on the deck. As chakra burst out, a sealing array spread, and a black curtain wall rose up, covering most of the warship. Kakashi hurriedly called on everyone to be alert and defend.

"Shuimu, how long can you hold out? There are so many enemies!"

“How much is a lot?”

"So many that can surround us?"

"This is quite a big scene, Kakashi."

Hatake Kakashi stared at the enemies surrounding him with his Sharingan.

"We are really unlucky this time. The leader of the other side must be a smart man. He took advantage of the opportunity that the environment has greatly weakened the strength of our strong men and launched a human wave tactic. Under this situation, it will become a chaotic battle and drag us down to death."

"It's no use saying this now..."

"Is there any way to deal with these cannon fodder? Otherwise it will become a tough battle."

As Hatake Kakashi was speaking, two more lightning bolts fell and hit the barrier directly. The huge power of the lightning instantly shook the body of Mizuki who was supporting the barrier. The curtain wall of the barrier also dimmed a little.

"Mizuki, are you okay?"

"Not bad." Shuimu stood up straight, which immediately made people feel relieved. "But our goal is too big, so this is not a solution..."

Without this damn thunderstorm, these failed experiments wouldn't have stood a chance.

The lightning not only struck Konoha, but also the enemies occasionally. Several enemies were even burned to charcoal and sank into the deep sea in full view of everyone. However, the others were not moved at all and still surrounded them regardless.

"Is this a matter of luck? It turns out that we ninjas are so weak in front of nature."

"Now is not the time to be sentimental. Think of a solution, Kakashi."

Upon hearing this, Hatake Kakashi turned around and looked at where Konoha's Genin and Mist Ninja were.

"Let's not talk about the Mist Ninja for now. Bugs and dogs are probably useless. As for Sakura and Hinata, forget about them. Sasuke might be a fighting force with his Sharingan and agility, but he's not suitable for active attacks. Naruto's shadow clones might be of great use."

After sorting out the situation, Kakashi said to Mizuki, "Naruto's shadow clones may be able to help. With their super strength and huge chakra, if we can hold on, there may be a chance of success. But how long can your protective barrier last? Can you detach yourself and let others maintain it?"

"Of course you can, but if you don't have any knowledge of sealing techniques and barriers, you won't be able to learn them on the spot."

"What should I do? It's fine for me to charge into the enemy's territory and kill them all, but if we fight a protracted war, I probably won't be able to come back."

"Have you ever thought of a way to solve your meager chakra supply?" Mizuki smiled bitterly, then turned to the Genin and said, "Sasuke, Sakura, Hinata, you come..."

When the three approached, Mizuki took out a scroll and handed it to Haruno Sakura, "There is sealed chakra in it. I taught you how to use it before. Do you remember it?"

Haruno Sakura nodded in confusion.

"Wait a minute, you will maintain the barrier."

Haruno Sakura's chakra is too little. Even with the Breath Containment Technique, it is currently difficult for her to maintain the consumption of the large barrier. Moreover, under the dual pressure of the enemy's attacks and the power of nature, she can't hold on at all.

Then Mizuki turned to Hinata and Sasuke and said, "Hinata, monitor the operation of the barrier's chakra, and Sasuke will protect it. Is that ok?"
