Traveling through Naruto with Heroes of Might and Magic

Chapter 126 The Jinchūriki, Terrifyingly Powerful

Something's not right!

Having grown up in the Root, Tianzang seems to have a natural intuition for danger.

He stretched out his hand and said, "It seems especially hot tonight."

Qingwu nodded, agreeing, and said, "August weather is normal, isn't it?"

"It is a bit hot." Seeing that no one was around, Xi Yan took off her mask and wiped her forehead.

Out of the corner of her eye, she hoped to see Qingwu staring at her cool and delicate face.

To her disappointment, Qingwu, Tianzang, and Kakashi looked up and studied the fiery clouds in the sky.

"Men, huh!" Xi Yan stomped her foot inwardly and put the fox mask back on.

The air grew increasingly hot and dry, and many Konoha ninjas emerged from their tents.

After a while, the wind picked up.

But it didn't cool the air; the wind seemed to carry the smell of sulfur, and even the soil in the camp seemed to be getting hot.

"Something's definitely not right!"

Kakashi's tone became serious.

"I sensed it too."

Qingwu issued an order, quietly directing the four withered tree guards, which were stationed in all directions, to approach the stronghold.

next moment--

"boom--!!!"

The camp gate was blown off, and a burly figure dressed in purple clothes and a breastplate appeared brazenly.

He had long, reddish-brown hair tied in a small ponytail and a large beard.

His expression remained calm and composed, as if he were strolling leisurely in his own home, as he slowly entered the camp.

The camp fell silent for a moment, then suddenly a Konoha ninja reacted, "Enemy attack!!"

A piercing alarm sounded, and a dozen or so ninjas nearby took action.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

"Water Release: Water Chaos Technique!"

"Wind Demon Shuriken!"

"Wind Release: Vacuum Wave!"

"..."

despair!

The purple figure stopped, slowly raising its head. "Lava Release: Granite!"

"boom--!"

"boom--!!"

The ninjutsu of the Konoha ninjas had no effect on him.

Because a layer of burning granite covers its exterior.

"Get out of the way!"

Kakashi suddenly shouted and charged towards the camp gate.

He sensed the terrifying chakra the moment that person appeared.

However, their Shadow Guard's tent was still some distance from the camp gate.

In an instant——

A purple figure, carrying burning granite, charged into the formation of a dozen or so Konoha ninja who were attacking him.

Spike! !

Despite being Konoha Chunin who had mastered ninjutsu, none of them could withstand the attack from the purple figure.

"It was him..."

Qingwu was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and hurriedly chased after Kakashi, shouting, "Captain, be careful! It's a Jinchuriki!"

Old Purple's attire was very eye-catching, and Qingwu recognized him immediately. However, due to surprise and dazedness, he was a step slower than Kakashi.

Tianzang and Xiyan followed closely behind, and the Shadow Guard naturally had to advance and retreat together.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

Kakashi instantly closed in and roared.

He rarely loses his composure.

But he is, after all, a 16-year-old boy.

Seeing their fellow villagers attack an enemy with such terrifying chakra... it's practically suicide.

As if sensing Kakashi's chakra, Roshi stopped his massacre and turned around. "A Jonin from Konoha?"

Before he finished speaking, he had already made his move.

"Scorching Release: Scorching River Rock Technique!"

He spat out several enormous magma balls, which shot towards Kakashi.

Kakashi dared not be careless and stopped in his tracks. "Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"

The dog's head and the earth flowed up the wall.

However, the earthen wall only held out for a short while before bursting open.

At the critical moment, Tenzo arrived and slammed his palms onto the scorching ground, unleashing "Wood Release: Wood Wall!"

A thick wooden wall rose up and blocked Kakashi's way.

The magma ball that shattered the earth wall had its power somewhat reduced, but even so, the wooden wall still rapidly carbonized and disintegrated under the molten fallout.

Fortunately, Kakashi had already taken the opportunity to retreat.

"Walk!"

Kakashi disregarded everything else and prioritized evacuating the surrounding Konoha ninja. "Go and inform Lord Shikaku."

Although Konoha's Jinchūriki has been temporarily eliminated due to an accident, there are still ways to counter Jinchūriki from other countries.

However, there is definitely no stronghold on the western side at present.

Facing a terrifying enemy like a Jinchuriki, a Tailed Beast, ordinary ninjas would be sent to their deaths.

At that moment, Kakashi thought of that night two years ago in Konoha, when the Nine-Tails raged...

"Wood Release—!?"

Old Purple seemed uninterested in attacking ordinary Konoha ninjas, letting them disperse as he stared intently at Tenzo.

"It seems Onoki sent me to find you!"

"Gulp!" Tianzang couldn't help but swallow, his mouth was already dry just from that gaze.

call out!

Old Purple doesn't seem to talk much. He was the first to attack Kakashi when he saw him earlier, and he's doing the same thing to Tenzo now.

"Wood Release·Wood Spindle Wall!"

Tenzang dared not be careless and channeled more chakra into his Wood Release to protect himself.

However, the solid wooden wall, which was strong enough to withstand a large-scale ninjutsu, was blasted apart by a single punch from Rōshi.

"boom--!!"

Tianzang was blasted away by the shockwave and crashed into the camp wall in the distance, spitting out a mouthful of blood and losing his fighting ability.

"Tianzang!!" Qingwu exclaimed in surprise. It was too fast; everything happened too quickly.

He didn't expect Lao Zi to attack Tianzang immediately, and the roots extending from his arm failed to catch Tianzang who had been blasted away.

Just then, Xi Yan appeared behind Lao Zi in a flash.

Assassination swordsmanship!

However, Lao Zi didn't turn his head, and violent chakra appeared around his body.

"don't want!"

Kakashi dispersed the crowd and returned, only to be horrified by what he saw.

"clang--!!"

The newly forged longsword struck the chakra cloak with a crisp sound and broke into several pieces.

In a moment of stunned silence, a tremendous force rebounded.

Following in Tianzang's footsteps, Xiyan was sent flying backwards, her fate unknown.

In a short time, the Shadow Guard had been reduced by half.

"hateful!"

Qingwu was furious. Facing an opponent of Jinchuriki's caliber, he dared not hide his strength any longer.

"Ninja Art: Summoning Technique!"

Boom! ...

The earth shook violently.

Twenty enormous, jet-black, withered wooden guards appeared around Lao Zi.

"Um!?"

Old Purple's pupils constricted sharply. "Another Wood Release technique?"

He had been out of touch with worldly affairs for many years and didn't know much about the situation, only that Konoha had produced two Wood Release practitioners.

"Zzzzzzz—!!"

A thousand birds sang in unison. Taking advantage of Old Purple's momentary lapse in concentration, Kakashi revealed his Sharingan and launched a surprise attack.

"Hooray—!"

Old Zi looked like he'd gone mad.

He... seemed too lazy to waste any more time, and simply clapped his hands together, "Lava Release: Volcanic Bullet!"

A dense barrage of lava projectiles rained down from the sky, covering the entire stronghold.

"Disappear from my sight!!"

Kakashi gritted his teeth and continued his attack on Old Purple, who was surrounded by the withered tree guards.

However, Old Purple unleashed "Molten Release: Granite!" once again.

Both the roots of the Deadwood Guardian and Kakashi's Lightning Blade were blocked from his body.

Moreover, he also has a layer of tailed beast clothing on his body.

Jinchūriki!!

Terrifying!!!

It seems impossible to defeat...
