The trio immediately began moving. Fujin asked, "Are you guys injured?"
Both shook their heads. Neither of them had taken any injury.
Hoka smirked and replied, "My opponent never dared to get close to me."
Mieko answered, "Mine maintained distance and fought defensively as well. He was just stalling for time."
Fujin looked at them and said, "That's good. But your chakra level seems very low."
Both sighed and nodded. Mieko's chakra had dropped to just 20%! Hoka had about 45% chakra left. By comparison, Fujin had 60% chakra remaining. If Renjiro's clone made his enemy waste Chakra, then Fujin's chakra level could be higher than his.
Fujin said, "You guys don't use chakra much. Hoka, you fight at close distance. Mieko, you provide shuriken support. And save your chakra if we decide to use a combination jutsu. I'll provide ninjutsu support. Sensei's Clone can provide backup for us."
Hoka immediately agreed, "Alright!"
He got to fight with Taijutsu which was all that mattered to him. Mieko also reluctantly agreed. She didn't have much chakra left to perform ninjutsu. And in terms of Taijutsu, both Hoka and Fujin were superior to her.
The trio soon reached the place where Renjiro's Shadow Clone and Mimasuya Junji were fighting. They hid in the woods and observed the situation.
The entire battlefield was a mess. There were hundreds of Earth spears spread throughout the battlefield. The rock spikes and thorns seem to be countless! Multiple Rock shields and Earth walls were also on the battlefield.
Renjiro's clone and Mimasuya Junji were standing around 100 meters from each other.
Junji had 1 Earth wall in front of him and a couple of Rock shields to his right and left.
Junji was frowning. He analyzed, 'In the last 15 minutes, I have tried everything I could do to dispel the clone, but he managed to defend every time. I tried making Water and Earth clones to help others, but he intercepted them all.
Every single clone of mine was caught off guard and dispelled! And his clone doesn't seem to be running short on chakra. Do I have to wait until someone comes to help me?'
He looked at Renjiro's clone and sighed, 'This is so embarrassing. I hope my lil bro isn't the one who comes to my aid. Anyways, 3 of the enemies were kids. They should be dealt with soon.'
Renjiro's clone kept a watch thinking, 'He hasn't made a move for over a minute. Has he given up on creating a breakthrough and is waiting for others?'
Renjiro's clone analyzed and shrugged, 'Whatever. This deadlock is in my favor. Once my main body wins, we will sweep through the battlefield!'
Mieko and Hoka, who were together, watched with grim faces as a huge water wave approached them. They both readied themselves to flicker backwards.
Fujin watched as the huge water wave approached him. Knowing that Mieko and Hoka won't be able to defend, he made a few hand signs as well.
'Wind Release : Infinite Breakthrough jutsu!'
He blew out intense winds that clashed with the huge water wave! The water wave was stopped. Water began dispersing through the strong winds and rained down harmlessly. Some water still passed through the winds, but it wasn't much and passed through the forest while the trio were on the trees. The clash happened on a wild scale. Both Renjiro and Kazuki noticed it.
Renjiro observed and thought, 'Is Fujin teaming up with my clone?'
Though Renjiro could use Wind jutsus as well, he rarely used them in combat. Against a Water jutsu, he would always use Earth jutsus.
Kazuki observed with a grim face, 'Did a strong Wind affinity ninja from Konoha arrive to reinforce? Or is it that brat who used the Great Breakthrough jutsu? What the hell are Junji and others doing? How long do they need to defeat 1 clone, 3 kids and 1 Inuzuka?
Junji watched with a grim face, 'My jutsu was countered so easily.'
Sensing the Earth Dragon approaching him, Junji immediately moved away. However, Renjiro's clone controlled the Earth Dragon to follow Junji.
Mieko and Hoka observed the situation with their Kekkei Genkais. Hoka sighed and said, "How will I fight in close range if they use such huge jutsus?"
Fujin concentrated Chakra in his eyes to carefully observe the Earth Dragon chasing Junji. He analyzed, 'If he defends Renjiro's attack, I might get another shot.'
Fujin quickly made a few hand signs and prepared another Vacuum bullet core.
Though Junji was moving rapidly, the Earth Dragon was faster. Understanding that he can't dodge, he created a hand sign and slammed his hands on the ground.
'Earth Release : Rocky Ground Barrier jutsu'
The ground under Junji immediately began hardening. In addition, a rock dome appeared around him and surrounded him.
The Earth Dragon clashed with the hard rocky ground and was stopped. Having no way to proceed ahead, it exploded. Junji desperately poured his chakra into the ground to strengthen his defenses.
Fujin, who was observing carefully, suddenly noticed, 'An opportunity!'
He immediately fired his Vacuum Bullet at Junji. Junji was in a very tough spot!
