The three of them immediately began to act. Feng Zheng asked.
“Are you injured?”
Both of them shook their heads. Neither of them was injured.
Hodaka chuckled and said.
“My opponents never dared to get close to me.”
Mieko replied.
“My opponent also kept his distance and adopted defensive tactics. He was just stalling for time.”
Feng Zheng looked at them and said.
“That’s good, but your Chakra levels seem very low.”
Both of them sighed and nodded.
Mieko’s Chakra had dropped to only 20%! Hodaka’s Chakra still had about 45% left. In contrast, Feng Zheng’s Chakra still had 60% left.
If Renjiro’s Shadow Clone had made the enemy consume a lot of Chakra, then Feng Zheng’s Chakra level might be higher than his.
Feng Zheng said.
“Don’t use too much Chakra. Hodaka, you are mainly responsible for close-range combat. Mieko, you provide Shuriken support. Save your Chakra; we might need to use combination Ninjutsu later. I will also provide Ninjutsu support. Our teacher’s Shadow Clone can also provide us with backup.”
Hodaka immediately agreed.
“Good!”
He could fight with Taijutsu, which was the most important thing for him.
Mieko also reluctantly agreed. She didn't have much Chakra left to perform Ninjutsu.
In terms of Taijutsu, Hodaka and Feng Zheng were both better than her.
The three of them quickly arrived at the place where Renjiro’s Shadow Clone and Mitsuru Hayato were fighting. They hid in the forest to observe the battle.
The entire battlefield was a mess. Hundreds of Earth Spears were scattered across the battlefield. The rock spikes and thorns seemed countless! Many rock shields and earth walls were also scattered across the battlefield.
Renjiro’s Shadow Clone and Mitsuru Hayato were about a hundred meters apart.
There was an earth wall in front of Hayato, and several rock shields on his left and right.
Hayato frowned. He analyzed.
“In the past 15 minutes, I’ve tried everything to disperse this clone, but he always manages to defend successfully. I wanted to create Water Clones and Earth Clones to help others, but he intercepted them all.”
“Every single one of my clones was unexpectedly dispersed by him! And his Shadow Clone’s Chakra doesn’t seem to be running low. Do I have to wait for someone to help me before I can disperse him?”
He looked at Renjiro’s Shadow Clone and sighed.
“This is truly embarrassing. I hope it’s not my younger brother who comes to help me. However, three of the enemies are children; they should be dealt with quickly.”
Renjiro’s Shadow Clone had been observing and thinking.
“He hasn’t moved for over a minute. Has he given up trying to break through and is waiting for reinforcements?”
Renjiro’s Shadow Clone analyzed for a moment, then shrugged.
“It doesn’t matter. This stalemate is beneficial to me. Once my main body wins, we’ll sweep the battlefield!”
Feng Zheng, Mieko, and Hodaka secretly watched. Mieko frowned.
“Why aren’t they fighting anymore?”
Hodaka said.
“They seem to be in a standoff; they might both be conserving Chakra.”
Feng Zheng also frowned.
“If they don’t fight, a sneak attack will be very difficult.”
Hodaka asked.
“How should we launch a sneak attack?”
Feng Zheng said.
“There’s no good way. I’ll try.”
Feng Zheng performed several Hand Seals, creating a Vacuum Core in his mouth. Hodaka and Mieko flashed away from Feng Zheng.
Feng Zheng looked at Hayato, but he made no move.
With no other option, Feng Zheng could only continue to use this Ninjutsu for a sneak attack, and he performed the Vacuum Bullet Technique again.
When Feng Zheng launched the Vacuum Bullet Technique, even though he didn't sense anything, Hayato became very wary.
He immediately retreated a few steps. Unlike his younger brother and Danjuro, Hayato was an elite!.
He participated in the Third Shinobi World War and was promoted to Jonin for his merits. Although he didn’t see Feng Zheng’s attack, he still dodged it.
The Vacuum Bullet hit the rock shield on his right, pierced through it, passed a foot in front of Hayato’s chest, and then pierced through another rock shield!
Feng Zheng immediately used Body Flicker Technique to another position, frowning as he said.
“I need to learn how to create multiple Vacuum Cores. If I could create 4-5 Vacuum Bullets, he would be dead.”
This attack caught the attention of both Hayato and Renjiro. Both of them looked towards the source of the attack at the same time.
Renjiro smiled. On the other hand, Hayato’s expression became grim.
The penetration power of this attack was too high! He observed the source of the attack, but there was no one there.
Mieko looked at the opponent and said.
“It seems a sneak attack won’t work.”
Hodaka nodded and replied.
“We’ll have to attack head-on.”
Hayato thought to himself.
“What a powerful attack! Have Konoha’s reinforcements arrived so quickly? I must win as soon as possible, otherwise if the others have to fight multiple enemies, they will be defeated.”
Hayato performed several Hand Seals. Renjiro’s Shadow Clone also smiled and performed a Hand Seal, then slammed his hands heavily on the ground.
Hayato performed Water Release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave Technique.
Renjiro’s Shadow Clone performed Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet Technique.
Hayato used the Exploding Water Colliding Wave Technique on the forest to his right. A huge wave of water appeared, crushing down towards the forest.
At the same time, the ground began to shake. A huge bronze dragon head emerged from underground, roaring. Behind the head was its long stone body. It then submerged underground again, heading towards Hayato.
Mieko and Hodaka, who were together, watched with grim expressions as the huge wave of water approached them. They were both ready to use Body Flicker Technique to retreat.
Feng Zheng watched the huge wave of water approaching him. Knowing that Mieko and Hodaka couldn't defend, he also performed several Hand Seals and unleashed Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!
He blasted out a fierce wind, colliding with the huge wave of water! The water was blocked. The water began to disperse in the strong wind, then fell as harmless rain.
Some water still passed through the wind, but not much, and it passed through the forest while the three of them were in the trees.
The commotion from this clash was very loud. Renjiro and Kuriwaki Kazuki both noticed it.
Renjiro observed and thought to himself.
“Is Feng Zheng teaming up with my Shadow Clone?”
Although Renjiro could also use Wind Release, he rarely used it in battle. Against Water Release Ninjutsu, he always used Earth Release Ninjutsu.
Kazuki observed with a grim expression.
“Have Konoha’s Wind Release Ninja reinforcements arrived? Or is it that kid who uses the Great Breakthrough Technique? What exactly are Hayato and the others doing? How much longer do they need to defeat 1 clone, 3 children, and 1 Inuzuka?”
Hayato watched with a cold face.
“My Ninjutsu was countered so easily.”
Sensing the approaching Earth Dragon, Hayato immediately dodged. But, Renjiro’s Shadow Clone controlled the Earth Dragon to pursue Hayato.
Mieko and Hodaka observed the situation with their Bloodline Limits. Hodaka sighed and said.
“How can I fight at close range when they’re using such powerful Ninjutsu?”
Feng Zheng concentrated Chakra in his eyes, carefully observing the Earth Dragon chasing Hayato. He analyzed.
“If he defends against Renjiro’s attack, I might still have a chance.”
Feng Zheng quickly performed several Hand Seals, preparing another Vacuum Bullet Core.
Although Hayato moved quickly, the Earth Dragon was even faster.
Realizing he couldn't dodge, he performed a Hand Seal, pressed his hands on the ground, and performed Earth Release: Earth Dome Prison.
The ground beneath Hayato’s feet immediately began to harden. In addition, a rock dome appeared around him, enclosing him.
The Earth Dragon collided with the hard rock surface, was blocked, and stopped. Unable to proceed further, it exploded.
Hayato desperately poured Chakra into the ground, reinforcing his defense.
Feng Zheng, observing carefully, suddenly noticed.
“A chance!”
He immediately fired a Vacuum Bullet at Hayato. Hayato’s situation was very difficult!
