Chapter 152: The Rock - Cloud War

"Don't be so cocky."

ōnoki wasn't stupid enough to fight the Raikage in Taijutsu. After forming Hand Seals, he spat out a large number of earth clumps from his mouth, which transformed into a rock monster in the air.

"Earth Release: Golem Technique[b]Earth Release: Golem Technique[/b]."

Boom!!

The rock monster landed with a deafening noise, smashing two large pits on the spot. Then it got up and swung its huge fist at the Raikage.

"Hell Stab, Four-Finger Impalement[b]Hell Stab, Four-Finger Impalement[/b]."

The Raikage concentrated a large amount of lightning on four fingers and rushed straight at the rock monster without dodging.

The powerful penetrating force shattered the entire arm of the rock monster.

"Ah~"

Rōshi's fighting style was still simple and brutal. He instantly activated the Lava Release Chakra Mode, and his whole body was wrapped in lava.

He raised his fist as big as a pot, jumped high, and punched at the Raikage's head.

"Such tricks dare to be shown off in front of me."

The Raikage sneered, and countless thunderbolts surged from his right hand.

Bang!!

The two fists collided, and the collision of the two terrifying forces caused a violent explosion.

Lava splashed everywhere, and lightning raged. The ninjas nearby who couldn't dodge in time were affected by the explosion ripples.

Rōshi was directly knocked flying, while the Raikage didn't even have a scratch on his skin.

The strongest shield[b]strongest shield[/b] is truly terrifying, several levels higher than Kawaki's defense.

"Let me handle it. You're no match for him."

ōnoki appeared behind Rōshi and supported him. His combat style was too much of a disadvantage against the Raikage.

There were only a few people who could compete with the Raikage in Taijutsu, and Rōshi was definitely not one of them.

"Okay."

Rōshi didn't act coquettishly. If he couldn't win, he just couldn't. It wasn't the first time he'd been beaten up.

With ōnoki here today, he was careless. He wouldn't have dared to fight the Raikage head-on like this a few days ago.

Over there, Han also fought with Burubi. Han, who had recovered a little strength, was constantly being overpowered.

No ninja dared to stay in the area where the Jinchūriki were fighting.

Rōshi got some free time and charged at the ordinary Cloud ninjas.

Soon he was surrounded by a large number of Cloud ninjas. These ninjas were fearless of death, which was really a headache.

They were completely sacrificing their lives to hold Rōshi back.

"After all these years, your height hasn't increased. I wonder if your skills have improved?"

The Raikage looked at ōnoki in the distance, with a mocking look on his lips.

The two were old acquaintances, both having come through the first war.

"You'll know if you try."

ōnoki suppressed the anger in his heart. This stupid guy's words were really infuriating.

"Don't be easily killed by me."

The Raikage showed a sinister smile, and a single finger on his right hand glowed brightly.

The strongest spear[b]strongest spear[/b], One-Finger Impalement[b]One-Finger Impalement[/b].

Although the Raikage seemed to look down on ōnoki a bit, he didn't really underestimate him.

The blue lightning shot towards ōnoki at an extremely fast speed.

"Earth Release, Super Earth Flow Wall[b]Earth Release, Super Earth Flow Wall[/b]."

ōnoki's eyes tightened. After forming Hand Seals, he quickly pressed them on the ground.

Rumble!!

A wall instantly rose from the ground and blocked the Raikage's path.

The lightning collided with the wall in an instant.

Bang!!

The wall was actually penetrated directly, and the Raikage didn't slow down his momentum and rushed straight towards ōnoki.

"What a terrifying destructive power!"

ōnoki sighed and shot up into the air, dodging the Raikage's killing blow.

"Dust Release, Primitive World Rejection Technique[b]Primitive World Rejection Technique[/b]."

A semi-transparent Barrier[b]Barrier[/b] shot out from ōnoki's hand. Every hair on the Raikage's body stood on end.

A huge sense of crisis welled up in his heart.

Even his Lightning Release Armor dared not withstand it head - on.

With a flash, he left his original position, and the Dust Release attack landed where he had just been.

BOOM!

A huge explosion sounded, leaving a giant hole dozens of meters deep in the place.

ōnoki didn't show a disappointed look when the Raikage dodged the Dust Release.

It would have been a surprise if the Raikage had been eliminated by a single Dust Release.

The two of them, one high and one low, faced each other again.

The battlefield was in a complete mess. Every minute and every second, ninjas were dying.

"The power is good."

The Raikage glanced at the deep pit and casually made a sarcastic remark.

"You're also quite fast at running."

ōnoki fired back with irony, and the two clashed again.

...

The battle lasted until nightfall without a clear winner.

The Cloud Ninjas killed by Rōshi had littered the area around him. He was the well - deserved MVP of this battle.

The two armies ceased fighting. Both ōnoki and A led their exhausted ninjas away.

"Third Lord, we've captured several Konoha spies."

Konoha's intelligence agents, regardless of the danger to their lives, finally caught sight of this great war[b]war[/b].

Unfortunately, only a few of them managed to escape from the Land of Earth[b]Land of Earth[/b], and the rest were captured.

"Is there any valuable intelligence?"

ōnoki couldn't help but have a headache. If Konoha got involved, the Land of Earth[b]Land of Earth[/b] would face a catastrophe.

Just the thought of Kawaki and Tsunade made him want to swear.

When did the young generation of Konoha become comparable to them?

"They came to confirm the situation in our Land of Earth[b]Land of Earth[/b]."

"There's no valuable intelligence."

The intelligence chief had interrogated them, and these Konoha Ninjas had died in the line of duty.

"We can't let our guard down."

ōnoki rubbed his large nose.

"Call Rōshi here."

After a while, ōnoki gave his next order.

"Yes, Third Lord."

Someone responded and left. Moments later, Rōshi appeared in front of ōnoki.

"Take some people to the border to prevent Konoha from invading."

"The situation we're facing now is very bad. You need to do your best."

ōnoki even explained the situation to Rōshi a little this time.

"Got it. I'll set off right away."

To protect his homeland, Rōshi readily agreed.

Seeing that ōnoki had nothing more to say, he turned around and left.

The battle between the Iwagakure Ninjas[b]Iwagakure Ninjas[/b] and the Cloud Ninjas continued. After another batch of reinforcements reached the village, Rōshi left with some of them.

ōnoki's move weakened the forces on the battlefield, but it was a last - resort measure. He even thought it wasn't enough to send Rōshi there.

Just Kawaki was more than a match for Rōshi, not to mention there were other Konoha experts.

But he couldn't spare any more experts because of the Cloud Ninjas.

He could only hope that Konoha wouldn't abandon the Land of Wind[b]Land of Wind[/b] and launch A Massive Offensive[b]A Massive Offensive[/b] against his Land of Earth[b]Land of Earth[/b].

The Konoha intelligence agents who escaped from the Land of Earth reported the situation they saw on the battlefield truthfully as soon as they returned to the camp.

After receiving the news, Tsunade called a meeting.

"Now it's confirmed that Kumogakure has launched a surprise attack into the territory of the Land of Earth."

"That means Ōnoki won't have the time to harass us anymore."

"Next, we can launch a full - scale attack on the Land of Wind."

"We'll set off for the Land of Wind on a chosen day. Any objections?"

Tsunade announced her decision. Finally, the situation was taking a turn for the better.

It wouldn't be that easy for Ōnoki to defeat Kumogakure, even on his own turf.

"No objections, but I think we should teach Ōnoki a lesson."

The Uchiha clan suffered heavy casualties in the battle against the Iwagakure Ninjas. Now they had this good opportunity.

He also wants to vent his anger. Who wouldn't strike while the iron is hot?
