Chapter 574: The Ice Age that Frozen Everything
Although the Jinchuriki who completely transformed into a tailed beast had a strong presence, Han and Jiraiya had already left the main battlefield, so it did not have any actual impact.
Whether it is Iwagakure ninja or Konoha ninja, they have to fight how to fight.
Mu Yue originally wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue it, but many Yangakure ninjas saw that Lao Zi was injured and quickly attacked Mu Yue to prevent Mu Yue from causing further harm to Lao Zi.
Most of the Iwagakure ninjas don't want to see Lao Zi because he is a jinchuriki and has a bad temper.
But this was on the battlefield, and they were at a disadvantage due to Konoha's tricks. They needed Lao Zi's power.
When the Iwagakure ninja force was originally formed, Ohnoki did not arrange for other top experts from Iwagakure Village because there were two jinchūriki in charge.
If Lao Zi was directly killed by Mu Yue's combo punch, it would be difficult for the Iwagakure ninja troops.
"Earth Release: Rock Iron Cannon Technique!"
"Earth Release·Rock Pillar Spear!"
All kinds of earth escapes were thrown at Mu Yue.
Phew! !
Mu Yue calmly took out three Flying Thunder God Kunai from her ninja bag and threw two of them out.
"Earth Escape·Earth Flow Wall!"
The Aiwagakure ninja quickly pulled up the earth wall to block the kunai, preventing the kunai from getting close to the attack range of the earth escape ninjutsu.
Whoosh!
Mu Yue activated the Flying Thunder God Technique and disappeared, appearing next to several Iwagakure ninjas.
He and Minato were fully prepared. Many points contained the Flying Thunder God Technique that they had left in advance. The purpose of the two thrown kunai was actually to attract attention.
Uh-huh!
Blood splashed, and Mu Yue's kunai accurately cut through the necks of the Iwagakure ninjas, taking away the lives of several Iwagakure ninjas.
The other Iwagakure ninjas who saw this scene frowned, secretly cursing Flying Thunder God as a disgusting ninjutsu.
Being able to teleport by throwing a kunai is annoying enough, but now they have entered a trap carefully prepared by the enemy, and they don't even know where the opponent is teleporting.
"Ahem."
Lao Zi coughed twice, gathered his chakra and stood on the small lake.
"Huhu."
Lao Zi panted heavily and tried to adjust his body's condition with the help of the tailed beast's chakra. He felt very uncomfortable now.
Although only four of Mu Yue's ten dragon bites hit him, they also caused considerable damage to Lao Zi.
His lava armor, which was strong enough to withstand the Namikaze Minato Rasengan, failed to work against the water dragons with restrained attributes. Except for the first water dragon, which was slightly blocked, the next three water dragons hit his body firmly.
If it hadn't been for the timely stimulation of the tailed beast's chakra to offset some of its power, I'm afraid his current state would have been even worse.
"Hanyu Muyue!" Lao Zi stared at Muyue's figure flashing among the crowd with a serious face.
After hard training and mastering the ability to fully transform into a tailed beast, this was the first time he had suffered so much from a person.
If it weren't for the other Iwagakure ninjas helping him, he might have been defeated by Mu Yue.
"Use the full tailed beast transformation to make Hanyu Mozuki think that you are going to fight to the death, and then I will lead the team to take advantage of the opportunity to deal with him!" Iwaku said quietly as he came to Lao Zi's side.
Yanku really wanted to retreat, but under the current situation, he would definitely not be able to retreat by force.
They had to kill some of the core characters among Konoha ninjas, Jiraiya or Hanyu Mugetsu.
Not even Namikaze Minato, because Namikaze Minato's position on the current battlefield is lower.
"Completely transformed into a tailed beast here?" Lao Zi frowned.
Their location was the center of the Iwagakure ninja force. Lao Zi was worried about this, so he only used the Melting Chakra mode.
"Most of the ninjas were able to retreat to a safe distance in time. As for the small number of ninjas who were accidentally injured, this is a necessary sacrifice for success." Iwaku replied quickly.
This was the best he could think of.
Even if you let Lao Zi lead Mu Yue to the Five-Tails side, it will be useless, because Jiraiya is also difficult to deal with. The injured Lao Zi and Han may not be able to defeat Mu Yue and Jiraiya.
But it's different here. With the four tailed beasts fully transformed, plus the five jounin of the Iwagakure blasting force led by him, and a large number of Iwagakure ninjas around, it is not impossible to kill Mu Yue.
There was a hint of hesitation on Lao Zi's face.
Even though his identity as a Jinchuuriki caused him to suffer a lot of criticism and discrimination, he subconsciously disagreed with Iwaku's words.
"If Hanyu Mozuki is not killed to create a breakout opportunity, more people will die in the end." Iwaku continued to strike while the iron was hot.
If Lao Zi agreed, he wouldn't have to worry about no one sharing the pot.
After all, Onoki originally refused to deal with Lao Zi because of Lao Zi's stubbornness. When he reports, if Lao Zi turns into a complete tailed beast regardless of the lives of the ninjas in the same village, the pot of defeat will be a little smaller.
"You'd better really kill Hanyu Muyue." Lao Zi sighed and closed his eyes slightly.
Iwaku felt happy, made a serious expression and said: "Of course, I will try my best!"
Dark red chakra continued to pour out of Lao Zi's body, covering Lao Zi's entire body.
As a violent aura rose, another huge beast appeared on the battlefield, and it was also the center of the battlefield.
"In order to deal with Mu Yue, he actually used a complete tailed beast transformation in this position." Namikaze Minato looked at the red-haired giant ape with some surprise.
From Lao Zi's current position, if Mu Yuelai punched Mu Yue, he didn't know whether Mu Yue would die or not, and Yan Yin would probably die several times.
"Are you targeting me?"
Mu Yue's 360-degree white eyes noticed something. After Lao Zi transformed, several ninjas with strong chakra were approaching him.
Although Byakugan had already seen through the opponent's chakra, Mu Yue still used a few identification techniques just to be on the safe side.
[Name: Iwaku]
[Chakra: 71000]
[Skills: Explosive Escape (Mastery Level: 3100/15000), Earth Chakra Nature Change (Mastery Level: 3500), Explosive Escape·Meteorite Explosion (Mastery Level), Explosive Escape·Exploding Flying Rocks (Mastery Level)… 】
[Name: Shashi]
【Chakra: 41000】
[Skills: Explosive Escape (Mastery Level), Earth Chakra Nature Change (Mastery Level), Explosive Escape·Detonating Stone (Mastery Level)...]
[Name: Turk]
[Chakra: 35000]
[Skills: Explosive Escape (Mastery Level), Earth Chakra Nature Change (Mastery Level), Earth Escape and Hardening Technique (Mastery Level)...]
"It's the Iwagakure Demolition Force."
Seeing the six identified panels all explode, Mu Yue instantly knew that the six people who quietly approached were the Iwagakure Demolition Team, the strongest elite unit in Iwagakure.
But Mu Yue didn't panic.
Now that he has discovered the other party's plan, the danger has been increased. Coupled with the Flying Thunder God Technique that can escape at any time and the armor color that can perfectly protect the body, there is no need to worry. Seeing Lao Zi transform into a huge ape, the Iwagakure ninja quickly retreated, fearing that he would be accidentally injured.
Mu Yue followed up at a faster speed, slashing Iwagakure while moving towards the place where there were more Iwagakure ninjas, trying to let Lao Zi accidentally injure some Iwagakure ninjas.
Lao Zi, who was determined in his heart, did not give up the attack because of Mu Yue's actions. He jumped up suddenly and hit Mu Yue with his huge fist.
In the fully tailed beast state, he has great power just by using chakra to strengthen his body and perform physical attacks.
boom! !
A big pit was created on the ground by Lao Zi, and in the pit were the bodies of two unlucky Iwagakure.
As for Mu Yue, who was targeted by Lao Zi, she used the teleportation technique at the last moment to distance herself and rushed towards the small lake he created. Most of the explosive escape ninjas were in that direction.
"Sure enough, a genius like him is not afraid of an injured Jinchuuriki at all." Upon seeing this, Iwaku couldn't help but flash a smile on his face.
Normally speaking, given the current chaos on the battlefield, it would be unreasonable to choose a ninja who can fly thunder as the target.
Because Mu Yue could fly away with Thunder God at any time, and they couldn't stop her at all.
But Yanku predicted what Mu Yue was thinking, and he didn't think Mu Yue would be afraid and leave just because Lao Zi had completely transformed into a tailed beast.
On the contrary, he felt that Mu Yue would use this opportunity to completely defeat Lao Zi.
Mu Yue is not only a young super genius, but has also personally killed a Jinchuuriki on the battlefield. Iwaku believes that Mu Yue like this will have his own pride in his heart and will not retreat easily.
"Explosive Escape·Exploding Flying Rocks!"
Yanku seized the opportunity and quickly created several rocks that were far more powerful than the detonating talisman and shot them towards Mu Yue.
Before taking action, Iwaku had already given orders to the other members of the blasting team. The moment Iwaku took action, the other five blasting ninjas also used their best blasting ninjutsu.
"Explosive Escape·Detonating Stone!"
"Explosion Escape·Explosion Technique!"
Various ninjutsu that can cause explosions fly towards Mu Yue.
Seeing that Mu Yue was about to be overwhelmed by the explosion, Yanku didn't relax at all. Mu Yue only needed to use the Flying Thunder God technique to easily escape this crisis.
Iwaku quickly condensed his chakra, preparing to use his strongest explosive ninjutsu, Meteor Explosion.
He judged that Mu Yue would not use Flying Thunder God to go too far and would teleport nearby to counterattack.
As long as Mu Yue appears, no matter who is next to Mu Yue, no matter how many Iwagakure ninjas are next to Mu Yue, Iwaku will immediately activate his ninjutsu.
If he could kill Mu Yue with his own hands, then he would not be defeated in an ordinary battle, but would be honored even though he was defeated.
However, to Iwaku's surprise, Mu Yue did not use Flying Thunder God to dodge, but activated the ninjutsu.
"Ice Escape·Ice Age!"
A large amount of chakra condensed in Mu Yue's body exploded at this moment, and the terrifying ice-blue cold air spread with Mu Yue as the center.
Kaka! !
Boom!
The original small lake turned into an ice field in the blink of an eye, and the rocks containing explosive power turned into ice cubes and fell to the ground, triggering bursts of explosions.
The cold air spread extremely quickly, and Yan Ku didn't expect Mu Yue to use Ice Escape instead of Flying Thunder God. In Yan Ku's shocked expression, the cold air quickly eroded his body and froze him into a big block of ice.
The remaining explosive ninjas who were not far away from Mu Yue were not as strong as Yan Ku, so they naturally did not escape the fate of being frozen.
Lao Zi originally wanted to take the opportunity to punch Mu Yuelai, but before his fist could be punched out, the cold air had already touched his body.
The biting cold made Lao Zi subconsciously shrink his pupils, and before he could make another move, he turned into a huge ice sculpture.
Under Mu Yue's generous use of chakra, the S-class Ice Age exerted terrifying power.
In addition to the explosive escape ninjas and Lao Zi who were closer to Mu Yue, there were also some Iwagakure ninjas nearby who also failed to escape the erosion of the cold air and turned into ice cubes one after another.
The Iwagakure ninjas who were not hit looked at the huge ice sculpture dozens of meters high with horrified expressions and quickly retreated.
Even the Konoha ninja who came nearby didn't care about anything else and quickly retreated.
For a moment, a piece of ice-blue silence appeared on the battlefield.
"As expected of Teacher Mu Yue!" Obito sighed after seeing Mu Yue resolve the crisis so easily and make a powerful counterattack.
Just now, a group of their disciples worked together to kill many Iwagakure ninjas, and led a team of Konoha ninjas to help Mu Yue relieve the pressure. In the end, Mu Yue solved the problem by himself before they could support them.
"It seems it won't be this time." Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief.
At this point in the war, their plan to trap the Iwagakure troops was mostly successful.
Mu Yue and the Konoha ninja troops are in good condition. No matter what happens, Mu Yue will not die.
Next, we only need to weaken the effective strength of the Iwagakure ninja as much as possible. This will be the biggest victory since the Konoha War.
"Next, pay more attention to your surroundings." Shisui's Sharingan quickly swept around.
There is no problem on Mu Yue's side, so they must protect themselves well and not become a burden to Mu Yue.
"You can actually practice ice escape so well without saying a word." Jiraiya, who was playing a game with Wuwei, was a little surprised.
Jiraiya, who was fighting the jinchuriki, shouldn't have cared about anything else, but the frozen four tails were too big and too eye-catching.
At this time, the sun was slowly rising, and the dawn light reflected various colors of light on the ice. In addition, the hair of the four tails was already a conspicuous red, which was really dazzling.
"If it were him, he might be able to surpass Sarutobi-sensei as a ninjutsu professor." Jiraiya couldn't help but sigh now.
Mu Yue had already demonstrated water escape and fire escape that were far beyond ordinary people, and now she is even so skilled in the blood succession boundary ice escape.
You must know that Mu Yue is only 21 years old now. He still has a lot of time to practice and study ninjutsu. The future is simply immeasurable.
Han also noticed the situation on the main battlefield. His calm personality couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and his attacks became impatient.
However, Jiraiya in the sage mode is not a soft persimmon. His impatience did not allow Han to gain victory, but Jiraiya caught the flaw.
Not only was he injured, but all the Iwagakure jounin responsible for protecting him were killed by Jiraiya and the two immortals.
"After taking care of these annoying interferers, the next battle will be much easier." Jiraiya exhaled.
A jinchuriki that can completely transform into a tailed beast is something that no strong person will look down upon.
If there is a dedicated Jonin team to assist, the danger will be greatly increased.
However, for a strong man like Jiraiya who has many means at his disposal, although it is not easy to deal with a single Jinchuuriki, he has a great chance of winning.
The frozen Four-Tails and the frozen Iwagakure ninja boosted the morale of Konoha ninjas, which was uncomfortable for the Iwagakure ninjas.
The strong combat power of the troops was being weakened one by one and they were unable to gain an advantage. This would make it difficult for them to break through, let alone defeat Konoha.
PS: This one is 4.2k, and there will be another chapter later, probably around 12 o'clock, but no later than 1 o'clock.
Because Xiaoju managed to go to bed early yesterday, I want to keep it up. If I stick to it for a week, maybe my schedule will be back.
