Chapter 114: Suppressing the Rebellion
The Sacred Tree is not something that can be toppled down. Kaguya Otsutsuki was sealed away, and until Ashura inherited the leadership of the Ninja Clan, there were still some roots of the Sacred Tree absorbing the energy of the earth all over the world. The test task given to Ashura and Indra by the Six Paths Sage was to destroy these remaining roots. The Sacred Tree was too huge, and its roots were all over the world. After the Ninja Clan era and the Warring States era, it was not surprising that there were still some remnants after so many years.
Originally, Ino thought that the Hero's Water was not as good as Shikamaru's chili balls, but after seeing this huge tree root, she changed her mind slightly.
Water may still not work, but the value of this tree root is huge.
Ino was not prepared to grab it, but was prepared to study it personally when the time was right and she had enough knowledge.
The village looked a little run-down. Holes could be seen on the sides of some rooms and bloodstains could be seen on the ground. No matter how lazy the villagers were, they would not turn a blind eye to these things. There was only one answer: the village had been attacked by traitors.
Because they were traveling so fast, the sounds of fighting could still be heard deep in the village.
In this age when there are no cheaters everywhere and everyone is just honestly casting seals, obtaining intelligence on the enemy is the most critical link in a battle, no doubt about it.
They knew the enemy's intelligence, but the enemy didn't know theirs. They were prepared, but the enemy was not. In this way, they had a 50% advantage.
Led by Shibuki, the three rushed to the battlefield.
The civilians of Takigakure Village gathered in a large three-story building. At the door, several ninjas were fighting desperately to resist the enemy.
Ino used her perception ability to take a look and found that there were about two hundred civilians here, mostly elderly people and children. There were also a large number of civilians in the northeast and southeast of the village.
They came to the rescue at just the right time.
At this time, a ninja saw Shibuki and immediately shouted, "Shibuki, you idiot, why did you come back? Leave us alone! Let's go! Go find Feng to save us!"
The other injured ninjas also cursed and told Shibuki to run away quickly.
Ino and Hong didn't seem to have much intimidation and were automatically ignored by them.
"Teacher Hong, I have a new technique and I would like to test its effect later." Ino said.
Hong had heard a lot about Ino from Asuma and knew that her ninjutsu level was extremely high. After a little thought, she agreed: "Okay, you come and try it. If you can't do it, call me."
With a senior ninja leading the charge, Ino felt quite relieved.
The only thing I'm worried about is Shibuki.
Hong performed an illusion and disappeared right in front of everyone.
"Hahahaha - Shibuki, my good disciple, you're finally back!" A man with a hedgehog head and a yellow cloth wrapped around his forehead walked out slowly, followed by more than a dozen ninjas. Judging from the forehead protectors of these ninjas, they should be from the Hidden Rain Village.
Shibuki clenched his fist three times and unclenched it three times: "Shuiyan! Takigakure Village has never treated you unfairly. Why did you do such a despicable thing?!"
He pointed at the villagers around him and said, "You betrayed the village, betrayed the companions who trusted you, and led the people from the Hidden Rain Village into the village. Don't you feel any guilt at all?"
Shuiyan smiled grimly: "Companion? Your father's lies are just some nice words. In this world, only power is eternal! Boy, give me the Hero's Water! I will leave here immediately, how about it?"
Shibuki looked at Ino, meaning, it's your turn to take action, don't just stand there.
"Do you want to leave this guy alive?" Ino asked in a low voice, pointing at the hookah in the distance.
Shibuki was stunned for a moment. Are all the Genin in Konoha Village so wild now? Shisha is a Jonin from our Takigakure Village! Are you still asking whether we need to keep him alive?
He thought for a moment and gritted his teeth: "Don't hold back, kill him."
Ino pointed at the ninjas wearing forehead protectors from the Hidden Rain Village and said, "Where are those guys?"
Shibuki didn't have a single cent of good feelings towards the invaders: "Kill them all!"
Shizuo and the Hidden Rain Village ninja behind him only noticed Ino at this time. They were stunned at first, and then burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha - Shibuki, you're smarter than I thought. You actually knew to go to Konoha Village to ask for reinforcements? But, hahahaha you really made me laugh to death!"
Shisha came out a little later, so he didn't see Hong. He smiled grimly at this time: "You should at least hire a Chunin, right? You only hired a child? This is a Genin from Konoha Village, right?!"
Several ninjas from the Hidden Rain Village were also laughing wildly, but the ninjas and villagers from the Hidden Taki Village did not laugh. They had seen Hong Luo before and thought that the Konoha ninja used the young Genin as bait and ambushed him in the dark.
Mixed in the laughter of several people was the subtle sound of the air being pierced. The "hissing" sound was still in the distance, but the water arrow driven by pressure had already arrived in front of them.
"Water escape. Water breaking wave!"
Shiyan was the first to be hit. This senior ninja from Takigakure Village did not see any trace of the water arrow, nor did he anticipate this type of attack beforehand. He just followed the intuition he had developed over the years and rolled to the left before the water wave was about to arrive.
The intuition honed from life and death situations saved his life, as the water wave from Ino's side just cut towards his right side.
The condensed water-attribute chakra under high pressure is like an extremely sharp sword.
A tall ninja wearing a forehead protector from the Hidden Rain Village was cut in half on the spot. With a smile still on his face, his upper body began to slowly tilt backwards, while his lower body was still standing straight.
The water wave was extremely fast, like a silver thread. Ino just tilted her head, and the silver thread pierced through the bodies of the seven ninjas, either their necks or their lumbar vertebrae. In just a moment, the seven fell in a pool of blood.
The smell of blood at the scene and the sight of seven people being dismembered frightened Shibuki so much that he fell down on the spot. The villagers, ninjas of Takigakure Village, and ninjas of Raingakure Village were not as embarrassed as him, but several ninjas who had previously thought that Konoha's Genin were easy dishes were now horrified. They couldn't react at all, and half of their own troops were eliminated.
Shuiyan, the Takigakure jonin, did have some experience after all. She did not roar hysterically. Instead, she hid behind a tree with a gloomy face, holding a kunai in her hand, thinking about how to respond.
He reacted quickly, but the other ninjas didn't have the same means. These ninjas from the Hidden Rain Village actually escaped from Pain. They were all scared out of their wits. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they were like dogs that had lost their homes.
When they encountered ninjutsu that they had never seen before and could not understand, the first thing they thought of was the gods in their village.
These guys are not good at fighting, but they are quite good at escaping.
They scattered in all directions, making it difficult for Ino's Mizudanbo to chase and attack them.
