CH 264

Strong lightning surged out of Aoba's body. Along with this lightning, the muscles all over his body seemed to have been injected with vitality, directly glowing with different life energy.

At the same time.

Aoba's body was covered with a layer of Raiton Chakura Mōdo(Lightning Release Chakra Mode).

Swish!

Aoba's figure flashed out and immediately rushed toward the Third Kazekage at an extremely fast speed.

At this moment.

The Third Kazekage placed all the focus on Aoba's advanced paper clone.

The earth-shattering iron spikes seemed to pierce through the advanced paper clone into a sieve.

"Third Kazekage-sama, we will meet again if we are fated!"

Aoba's advanced paper clone imitated Brei's voice. The corners of his mouth curled up into a devilish smile. He reached into his ninja bag and took out a ball-shaped ninja tool.

This ninja tool was a smoke bomb!

Aoba had collected a lot of loot from the corpses that he had killed.

Smoke bombs were very common.

There was no need to buy them, as he already had a lot of them and could not be used up.

After Aoba's advanced paper clone took out the smoke bomb, he did not throw it on the ground like usual. Instead, he directly crushed it with his bare hands.

Bang!

Along with an explosive sound, a white cloud of smoke that could obscure vision instantly scattered around Aoba's advanced paper clone and covered everything.

"Do you think you can run away like this?"

When the Third Kazekage saw that the smoke from the smoke bomb had blocked his vision, his lips curled into a disdainful smile, and his eyes flashed with a cold light.

The two Kumogakure ninjas who attacked him.

No one could escape!

It was impossible to escape!

Especially the Brei in front of him, who was already completely in the Iron Sand World Method magnetic field. It was impossible for anything to happen that would allow him to escape.

Bang!

Right at this moment.

In the area covered in smoke, there was once again a sound of an explosion.

It was just that the sound of the smoke bomb exploding concealed it and did not attract anyone's attention.

"Go to hell!"

The Third Kazekage's eyes had become bloodthirsty. Even if his vision was blocked by the smoke, he could clearly know where Brei was in front of him.

Moreover, he also knew that Gasshi was rushing toward him.

However, he did not think that Gasshi could break through his Iron Sand World Method barrier.

First deal with one!

Then deal with the other!

The Third Kazekage floating in the air suddenly spread out his hands. It looked like he was commanding the iron on the ground, rushing toward Aoba's advanced paper clone.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The iron spikes pierced toward the smoke, instantly covering the area with dense iron spikes.

This scene fell into the eyes of Sunagakure ninjas.

They all felt a strong sense of excitement.

Win!

None of them saw Brei run out of the smoke.

This almost means...

That Kumogakure ninja did not come out at all!

It had already been penetrated by the sharp iron spike!

"As expected of Third Kazekage-sama!"

The Sunagakure ninjas exclaimed in their hearts. Their eyes were all focused on the Third Kazekage, and they also looked at Gasshi who was rushing toward the Iron Sand World Method.

They had automatically ignored Gasshi.

This was nothing to worry about!

In their eyes.

A ninja who relied on close combat.

It was impossible to break through the Third Kazekage's iron forest and appear around him.

This was absolutely impossible!

It was just...

While the Sunagakure ninjas were still excited and happy, the Third Kazekage's face was not as good.

'Something was wrong!'

He deeply felt that something was wrong!

This feeling is a little different from what he imagined!

'Why didn't it have that kind of substantive penetrating feeling?'

The Third Kazekage was very clear that his Iron Sand World Method had been completely arranged. There could not be any gaps in that smoky area. Even a fly would not be able to fly out.

Brei didn't leave at all.

But why didn't he feel as if he had stabbed air?

Just as the Third Kazekage was feeling puzzled, Gasshi, who had charged toward the Iron Sand World Method, began to move around in the midst of the Iron Sand World Method's iron spike, charging toward the Third Kazekage at an extremely fast speed.

He quickly ran under the Third Kazekage, and his legs suddenly bent as he prepared to shoot out like a bow.

Chōkeijūgan no Jutsu(Ultralight-Weight Rock Technique)!

With a thought, Aoba silently applied this earth-release ninjutsu to his body.

He simply applied a bit of it.

It allowed his body to become lighter.

From then on, he could jump higher!

Instantly.

Aoba suddenly jumped up, his body carrying lightning light. Like a thunderbolt that flew up from the ground, he directly rose into the air.

Just as Aoba jumped up.

The smoke bombs used by Aoba's advanced paper clone had already dispersed, leaving a blank area.

There was no one.

There was no trace of Brei at all.

Apart from the iron spike everywhere, there was nothing else.

It was as if no one had ever appeared.

This scene not only surprised Sunagakure ninjas but also surprised the Third Kazekage, who was using the Iron Sand World Method.

"Impossible!"

The Third Kazekage widened his eyes. The belief in his heart was slightly shaken at this moment.

"How could he have disappeared?"

The Third Kazekage had almost never failed on Iron Sand World Method and it had never been dodged in such a way.

He had no idea how the other side had dodged!

There was no clue at all.

Completely clueless.

'Could it be that a smoke bomb could make people disappear into thin air?'

'Impossible!'

A strange thought appeared in the Third Kazekage's mind, 'Could it be that Kumogakure also knew how to use space-time ninjutsu?!'

'It doesn't make sense!'

Kumogakure ninja has never been famous for ninjutsu!

The entire ninja world knows that Kumogakure believes in Lightning Release Ninjutsu and combining Taijutsu with Lightning Release Ninjutsu maximizes their ability in close combat.

If they were to fight in close combat.

Perhaps not many people in the ninja world could be Kumogakure's opponent.

But ninjutsu...

Kumogakure definitely couldn't!

The Third Kazekage didn't hesitate to eliminate the method Brei used to leave through space-time ninjutsu.

The simplest reason was...

If Brei could use space-time ninjutsu, why did he use it only when he ran away; when he attacked, he didn't use it at all.

This must be some special secret technique!

The Third Kazekage silently judged in his heart. When he was thinking, Gasshi had already jumped up.

"Jiton: Satetsu Shigure(Magnet Release: Iron Sand Drizzle)!"

The Third Kazekage looked down at Gasshi who was about to jump up to his face. His face instantly calmed down. He knew that now was not the time to think about what had just happened.

He had to deal with the crisis that was about to appear in front of him.

As his voice rang out.

The iron wings on Third Kazekage's back suddenly spread out like a great roc spreading its wings, directly covering the sky around him. It looked extremely imposing.

After the iron wings spread out.

A terrifying iron drizzle burst out from the wings and quickly flew toward Gasshi who was Aoba, and it seemed to want to shoot Aoba into a sieve.

"Your fault is that you shouldn't have fought in the air with me!"

The Third Kazekage's eyes became extremely cold. He did not care about Aoba who was jumping high. As a Kumogakure ninja, the worst way was to be close to him. Now that he was flying in the air, if a Kumogakure ninja wanted to attack him, he would have to jump from the ground.

However.

In this case.

The person who leaped up would not be able to move his body nimbly.

From then on, he would become a living target for his Iron Sand Drizzle.

This was the strength of the Third Kazekage. He could advance, attack, and retreat. He was completely in a state of both offense and defense, making it impossible for others to easily touch his body.

"In the Iron Sand World Method, I am an invincible existence!"

The Third Kazekage roared loudly. As his iron wings flapped, a terrifying iron drizzle shot toward Aoba.

His eyes flashed with confidence.

In his eyes.

The Kumogakure ninja in front of him.

He was about to turn into a corpse.

"Just this?"

Aoba looked at the iron drizzle flying in front of him. There was no panic on his face because it cause no threat to him at all.

Swish!

Aoba's figure suddenly flashed out.

His whole body directly disappeared from the air.

He did not use space-time ninjutsu.

Instead, he directly shifted his position created by twisting his body through physical strength.

This level of physical skill could even be done by Rock Lee.

After Aoba and his advanced paper clone appeared as Kumogakure ninjas, they did not use space-time ninjutsu at all.

This just satisfied Third Kazekage's guess.

Of course.

Aoba did not need it.

It was not that he did not know how to use it, but he did not want to use it.

His advanced paper clone was under the smoke bomb and the people's line of sight was blocked, so he directly removed the shadow clone and disappeared into thin air.

Of course, nothing could be found.

This shadow clone no longer existed.

It was as if it had vanished into thin air!

It was simply impossible to find!

Swish!

Aoba's figure flashed and instantly dodged the flying Iron Sand Drizzle. This kind of cool feeling was like avoiding a bullet.

In just a flash of light.

Aoba dodged most of the Iron Sand Drizzle attacks.

"You..."

The Third Kazekage widened his eyes as he looked at Aoba in front of him. His eyes were filled with shock.

Unbelievable!

It was simply unbelievable!

There was actually someone who could dodge his Iron Sand Drizzle at such a close distance!

Now...

The Third Kazekage suddenly panicked a little, because the iron wings on his back had consumed a lot of iron sand, and the only remaining part of it was used to support him.

This part only maintained his flying posture, which was already very difficult, let alone dodge.

"Jiton: Satetsu Kōsoku (Magnet Release: Iron Sand Binding)!"

The Third Kazekage glared at Aoba who was rushing in front of him. He didn't know if it would be too late to control the iron sand like this, but no matter what, he had to try. Otherwise, he would fall into a passive state.

He was very clear about this point.

In the face of close combat against a Kumogakure ninja, the iron around him was not enough. He was in this kind of situation where he was not so flexible in the air, and he was in an awkward situation.

For a moment.

The Third Kazekage controlled the iron sand in front of him to form a huge palm and grabbed at Aoba's body.

"It's too late."

Aoba saw through the Third Kazekage's thoughts at a glance. How could he give the other party a chance to react?

This time, he came here with the identity of Kumogakure ninja to attack the Third Kazekage. The goal was very simple. He wanted to lead the disaster to them so that the Third Kazekage and Sunagakure's people would focus on Kumogakure.

Other things were not important!

He did not want to kill the Third Kazekage, nor did he care about the other ninjas. He just wanted to show this matter.

It was precisely because of this reason.

Aoba's figure flashed out. His body was supported by Chōkeijūgan no Jutsu(Ultralight-Weight Rock Technique), and his entire body was extremely flexible in the air.

This degree of flexibility is far more than the Third Kazekage, which was a weakened version of the iron sand wings.

Instantly.

Aoba shot in front of the Third Kazekage at an extremely fast speed and raised his right hand to punch.

Swish...

Aoba's fist contained dense lightning chakra, and with strong momentum, his fist directly smashed toward the Third Kazekage's chest.

"Not good!"

When the Third Kazekage saw the situation in front of him, he was suddenly shocked in his heart, and he widened his eyes, not daring to believe what was happening in front of him.

'This Kumogakure ninja...'

'He actually directly appeared in front of me!'

This situation immediately made him feel a strong sense of threat. He no longer cared about his flying posture and immediately controlled the iron wings behind him to gather around his body, instantly wrapping him up and forming an iron sand protective cover.

However, the density of this protective cover was not too high.

But he still tried his best to block the attack of this Kumogakure ninja in front of him.

The Third Kazekage finally realized that he had underestimated the enemy just now. He should have killed these two Kumogakure people in the first place, and now the situation had become passive.

"Raigyaku Suihei Choppu(Lightning Oppression Horizontal Chop)!"

Aoba shouted. His fist turn into a hand knife, and then directly chopped at the iron protective cover on the Third Kazekage's body.

BOOM!!!

Aoba's hand smashed heavily against the iron protective cover and the iron protective covet in front of him directly exploded, completely scattering into iron sand.

This technique was not the real Raigyaku Suihei Choppu(Lightning Oppression Horizontal Chop)!

This was just what Aoba shouted!

His goal was very simple, which was to make the Third Kazekage mistakenly think that he had used this technique.

Aoba had seen the Fourth Raikage use this technique before when he was watching Naruto Anime, and he had seen this name in Gasshi's memory, so he simply roared out.

What he really used was the strange technique that Tsunade taught him and Chōkajūgan no Jutsu(Ultra-Added-Weight Rock Technique) attached to his fist.

These two techniques were stacked together.

It could also produce an explosive effect.

Of course.

Aoba was not afraid that the Third Kazekage would see through it.

In this tense situation, the Third Kazekage's attention was definitely not on whether this technique was real or fake. After all, the effect was roughly the same.

Because the iron protective cover was destroyed.

There was no longer any obstruction between Aoba and the Third Kazekage. He could directly attack the Third Kazekage's body.

Swish!

Aoba jumped out and instantly appeared in front of the Third Kazekage. He raised his hand and punched directly at Third Kazekage's abdomen.

This punch used has the Chakra Enhance Strength added with it.

However, it was not too violent.

He would just make the Third Kazekage feel an unforgettable pain in his life, but he would not be directly killed because of it.

"Bang!"

Along with a heavy sound, the Third Kazekage's body directly arched backward. The strong impact caused his eyes to open wide, and his eyes were about to fall out. He directly spat out saliva from his mouth.

After the Third Kazekage was punched, his body flew backward; but at this time, Aoba's right hand suddenly grabbed the Third Kazekage's hair, forcibly stopping the momentum of the Third Kazekage's flying back.

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

One crisp sound after another rang out. It was precisely because Aoba had used too much strength that caused the Third Kazekage's bone to crack.

After that.

Aoba pulled the Third Kazekage back, his left hand clenched into a fist as he heavily punched the Third Kazekage's abdomen again.

But this time.

Aoba didn't hold his hair anymore.

Instead, he released his grip.

He allowed the Third Kazekage to fly backward like a cannonball, crashing heavily onto the ground.

"Third Kazekage-sama!"

The eyes of Sunagakure ninjas were wide open. They looked at the Third Kazekage who was sent flying in disbelief. They did not expect the result to be like this. Almost everyone was dumbfounded. They immediately ran in the direction of the Third Kazekage.

At this time.

Aoba's figure slowly fell.

These Sunagakure ninjas seemed to have forgotten him.

No one dared to fight him at all.

The corners of Aoba's mouth curled up slightly, and then he stepped on a tree trunk next to him and left at an extremely fast speed.

"Interesting!"

The corners of Aoba's mouth curled up slightly, revealing an excited expression. Just now he accidentally touch the Third Kazekage's head and heard a clear electronic prompt.
