Chapter 251 Helper's Battle
In a grassy area in the woods, Chisuke, who was resting against a tree, opened his eyes, slowly stood up, stretched his arms, and yawned loudly.
"Ah... let's go."
Eight Sand Ninja jumped down from the tree to the ground and followed behind Sensuke.
In the past two days, Sensuke led his men to attack nearby Konoha ninjas and achieved some success.
In the dream, Kyosuke and Yamori relayed messages, and Sensuke knew the location of Konoha's main force, so when planning the attack direction, he could reduce the danger and attack Konoha's weak points.
The same thing happened today; they intercepted a group of Konoha ninjas transporting rations, medicine, and weapons to the front lines.
As an important transport team, this group of Konoha ninjas numbered over twenty and were quite strong.
One of the Hyuga clan ninjas spotted the Sand Ninja preparing to launch a sneak attack.
"What bad luck, I never expected to run into enemies here."
The leader of the Konoha ninjas sounded somewhat helpless, feeling that he had very bad luck.
Most of the land of the river is plains, with no particularly dangerous places.
Konoha ninjas can choose different routes to reach the front lines; there are no places they are required to pass through.
Since it's all flat land, taking a slight detour won't waste much time; there's no need to go in a straight line.
In order to avoid the Sand Ninja's attack, this group of Konoha ninja chose a longer route, drawing an arc to the south, but they still encountered the enemy.
There was no way around it; Kyosuke had already told Sensuke about these Konoha ninja customs.
In the sky, an eye made of sand floated, watching the Konoha ninja below stop and form a defensive formation.
"We've been discovered; we have no choice but to launch a full-scale attack."
Chisuke pressed his hands to the ground, causing the ground to churn and the sand to roll forward like ocean waves, burying all the trees and flowers in its path and turning the land into a barren desert.
Even when attacking, this involves using wide-range ninjutsu to create a favorable battleground for oneself.
The other Sand Ninja scattered and attacked the Leaf Village ninjas from different directions.
"careful!"
Seeing the sand sea hundreds of meters wide rushing towards them, the Konoha ninja were shocked, and two Konoha ninja stepped out.
"Tu Dun·Tu Liubi!"
A wall, eight or nine meters high and more than twenty meters wide, appeared in front of the Konoha ninja.
Boom!
The sandstorm crashed into the wall; some of it was blocked, while most of it rushed past from both sides of the wall.
The sand accumulated at the base of the wall, eventually forming a hillside that was about the same height as the wall.
Faced with the powerful impact, cracks appeared in the wall, but it still managed to block the attack.
The surrounding area was a sea of sand, but behind the wall, where the Konoha ninjas were located, there was still a patch of lush green grass.
"Success."
The two Konoha ninjas using Earth Release techniques breathed in the air and showed expressions of delight upon seeing this scene.
To reinforce the wall, the two of them were frantically consuming their chakra.
"The enemy is hiding in the sand!"
The Hyuga clan ninja loudly warned his comrades.
At the same time, two puppets emerged from the sand several meters thick on both sides, wielding blades on their arms, and flew at low altitude towards the two Konoha ninjas who had relaxed their guard after using Earth Release.
One of the Konoha ninjas reacted quickly, hearing the Hyuga clan ninja's warning, and dodged the puppet's attack in time.
Zero was a little slow to react and was about to be beheaded by the puppet, but he was rescued by the others.
"Multiply Technique!"
A giant fist slammed into the puppet, smashing it into pieces.
Other Sand Ninja also rushed out and engaged in a chaotic battle with the Konoha ninja.
Although there are many ninjas in Konoha, most of them are Chunin.
Although the number of Sand Ninjas was small, they were all elites with considerable combat power, and the two sides appeared to be evenly matched.
Sensuke silently observed all of this through the Eye of Sand, assessing the strength of the Konoha ninja.
"A Hyuga clan ninja, an Akimichi clan ninja, and a ninja skilled in Fire Release and Earth Release—these three are the core of the enemy. Once they are dealt with, the other enemies will be no match for them."
By this time, casualties had occurred on both sides.
It didn't matter how many Konoha ninja died, but seeing that one Sand ninja had died, Sensuke couldn't stand idly by any longer and immediately took action.
"Everyone be careful, the enemy in the distance is about to make a move, and his chakra is terrifying!"
The moment Chisuke made a move, the Hyuga clan ninja noticed.
Furthermore, the Hyuga clan ninjas discovered the Eye of Sand and shattered it, thus blocking Sensuke's vision.
"Rolling eyes is so annoying."
Sensuke snorted and had no choice but to charge towards the Konoha ninja.
Although there were no trees around, there were undulating sand dunes.
Chisuke doesn't have the Byakugan ability, so his vision can't penetrate the sand dunes to see distant enemies. He can only unleash his full power when he gets closer.
Since Ooka Shin's death, Sensuke has been unable to suppress the One-Tailed Beast's power and can only rely on the Sand Ninja's seal to restrain it, so he dares not easily transform into a fully-fledged tailed beast.
Currently, Chisuke and Shukaku are getting along well, but without the Rinnegan, Chisuke feels guilty.
If Shukaku goes berserk, Sensuke will be in trouble.
Unless it's a critical moment, Chisuke won't summon Shukaku and unleash his ultimate attack as easily as before. In that case, he'll have to work harder and rush in to fight the enemy.
Leaping onto a sand dune, Chisuke saw the battlefield. After scanning it, he raised his hand.
Sand Rain!
Under Chisuke's control, the surrounding sand shot out like bullets, attacking the Konoha ninja over a wide area.
Upon seeing Chisuke arrive, the other Sand Ninja immediately retreated and disengaged from the battle, allowing Chisuke to attack with impunity.
Seeing several of their comrades killed by Sensuke, the Hyuga clan ninja became somewhat anxious.
"The surrounding sand is the enemy's weapon. With his massive chakra, he can launch a relentless and intense attack. We can't drag this out; we must end this battle as soon as possible!"
"Then attack! Kill the enemy and we'll survive! Human bombs!"
The Akimichi clan ninja's body grew larger, his head and limbs curled up, and his body became a rapidly spinning sphere. He charged towards Chisuke on the sand dune, braving the barrage of sand projectiles.
"Stop right there!!"
Sand continuously condensed and rose in front of Chisuke, forming a large sand hand that blocked the Human Bomber Chariot.
"what!!"
The Akimichi clan ninja roared, unleashing all his power as he slammed his hand into the sand, splitting it open and sending sand flying.
"Fool, my sand is inexhaustible."
Seeing the sand hand on the verge of collapse, Chisuke sneered and manipulated more sand to replenish it.
There was a lot of sand falling, but even more sand was replenished. The Akimichi clan ninja's attacks were futile, making them both laughable and pathetic.
The sand hand not only expanded, but was about to engulf the human bomb tank, at which point the other Konoha ninjas intervened.
"Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet Technique!"
A clay dragon head, over ten meters long, bypassed the sand's palm and flew towards Chisuke.
"I can multitask."
While manipulating the sand in his hand, Chisuke controlled another clump of sand, forming a shield that crashed into the earth dragon bullet.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom!
The earth dragon bomb struck the sand shield and began to explode continuously. Accompanied by a series of explosions, bursts of flame engulfed the sand shield.
The sand that formed the shield was completely dispersed by the shockwave, creating a sandstorm that swept Chisuke into the dust, obscuring everything and making it impossible to see anything.
"Integrating explosive tags into earth-escape techniques is an interesting idea."
Chisuke chuckled, stopped controlling the sand to attack the human bomb tank, and immediately jumped backward, trying to get out of the sandstorm's range.
