Time moved back a few hours again, and when the light of dusk gradually enveloped the earth, the raging war between the Kirigakure and the Uzumaki clan also temporarily came to an end.
Both sides paid gold to withdraw their troops and returned to their camps to rest and recuperate. Countless bodies were left behind at the head of the city, with blood-stained swords and guns, flowing internal organs, and filled with gunpowder smoke...the sunset reflected scenes of desolate scenes.
The setting sun was like blood, and the whole world seemed to be dyed a miserable dark red at this moment.
Siege warfare is a very rare war mode in the ninja world, because with the high mobility of ninjas and the powerful power of ninjutsu, almost no city can resist the attack of a large-scale ninja army.
In fact, since the advent of the Ninja Village era, the thick city wall has withdrawn from the stage of history.
Except for the capitals of various major countries, which still retain buildings such as cities due to historical reasons, it is difficult to see so-called strong city walls in other areas.
Nowadays, most of the few remaining cities exist with a symbolic meaning and are basically no longer used for military purposes.
Except for Uzumaki Village, which is very secretive, its founding date can almost be traced back to the Warring States Period, or it may have been the settlement of the Uzumaki clan in an earlier era.
The design of the city was still preserved by the Uzumaki clan and continues to this day.
On this basis, countless sealing incantations and sealing techniques, combined with extremely hard building materials, together formed the iron wall of the Uzumaki clan, a fortified city that could truly withstand the attack of the Ninja Army.
The countless corpses of Mist ninja below the city seemed to be silently telling how difficult this city wall was. This scene, except what can be seen here in Uzushio Village, cannot be replicated anywhere in the ninja world.
Now, in this protracted siege battle between Kirigakure Village and Uzushio Village, both sides have suffered heavy casualties.
A conservative estimate is that in more than a month, at least two to three thousand Kirigakure people will die. Even if the Uzumaki clan has a city to garrison, at least a thousand people will die.
It now seems that Kirigakure Village has a broken front tooth and Uzushio Village is even more injured, but neither party has the intention to stop.
Kirigakure is unwilling to give up his goal, and Uzushio will not close his eyes and wait for death.
Therefore, the brutal siege battle will continue until one side is completely wiped out.
Of course, if things had not changed, the original ending would have been like this.
But now, a variable that everyone on both sides of the war cannot ignore is standing at the top of the city, silently looking down at the distant scene, with wisps of cold light flashing in his eyes.
"It's been three hours. Based on the distance traveled by Mizukage and his team, they must have almost reached the border of Whirlpool Country by now, right?"
"That is to say, now, that guy is finally alone."
He raised his watch again and glanced at the time. When he saw the hour hand finally slowly reaching the six position, Lei Luo took a deep breath and took a sharp step to cross the city wall.
Several dozen meters ahead, several fog ninjas who were still stationed in the position and were responsible for monitoring the movements of Uzushio Village saw Lei Luo's actions and quickly opened their mouths in shock, as if they wanted to shout a warning signal.
Shout out.
But at this moment, time changed silently, returning to zero in ten seconds. The sounds they made in non-existent time were destined not to be received by the outside world.
When the flow of time returned to normal and after a brief daze, these fog ninjas were unaware that the shadow of death had quietly shrouded behind them.
Chi chi chi...
A series of cold lights outlined the twisted light of light and dark in the dusk. As a few slight sounds of flesh penetration were heard, several blurry afterimages were suddenly thrown up in the air. It was the person who had been beheaded by Lei Luo in an instant.
Several mist ninjas.
Sheathing the sword, Lei Luo glanced around and saw some mist ninjas around him still patrolling back and forth in the position without realizing it, obviously showing no reaction to his arrival.
Some of the mist ninjas who were originally staring at the city seemed to realize something in a daze, and unconsciously turned their gaze to where Lei Luo was.
But at this time, as the breeze gently swayed in the air, the place was empty.
There were only a few heads that had just fallen to the ground, and a few headless corpses that fell to the ground unable to do anything, which seemed to be telling of the occurrence of some kind of emergency.
The mist ninjas who inadvertently saw the scene here, after a moment of shock, opened their throats and roared with all their strength:
"It's him! Jueying!"
"He ran down!"
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
Hearing the shouts coming from behind, Lei Luo remained unmoved and just silently accelerated his pace. His body suddenly reached the speed of sound in an instant, and rushed straight in front of him with a series of blurry black afterimages.
Among the Kirigakure troops.
Since it was already time to retreat, the large Kirigakure troops were moving from behind to the front, slowly moving towards the camp. Therefore, in other words, they once again turned their backs towards Lei Luo.
But like last time, Lei Luo still had no idea of killing these mist ninjas, because it would not only be a waste of time for him, but also meaningless.
What he should do was to once again penetrate the Kirigakure line, join up with Aburame Shiguro, Hinata Tamaki and others, and rush to the predetermined location as soon as possible to ambush the Third Mizukage.
Bang bang bang... The familiar sonic boom sounded from the ears of the fog ninjas again, causing a commotion.
But... perhaps because of the experience they had last time, the Mist Ninjas did not get into a mess like last time. Instead, they quickly separated their formations and retreated to both sides, clearing the way for Lei Luo to move forward.
.
Noticing that the mist ninjas in front of him were retreating to both sides without any intention of hindering their actions, Lei Luo felt a little strange in his heart, but this was not the time to hesitate.
Therefore, he ignored the many Kirigakure on both sides who were paying attention to him and saluted him. He just maintained the speed of sound, his footsteps never stopped, and quickly passed through the center of the Kirigakure army like a hurricane.
But at this moment...
"Melt Escape. The art of melting monsters!"
"Flag. Liberation!"
An old roar and a young shout alternately sounded in Yu Leiluo's ears.
Before he could make any move, he saw masses of magma-like material suddenly falling from the sky a few meters in front of him. In the blink of an eye, it covered an area of 40 to 50 square meters, turning the earth into a land exuding terrifying heat.
of scorching seas.
The traveling route was blocked, and Lei Luo wanted to activate the time delay to break through, but at this moment, another sound of breaking wind came to his ears.
Lei Luo turned his head and looked slightly, and saw in the area behind him on the left, a solid, thick blade about ten meters long and two to three meters wide, with a light blue shimmer all over its body, pointing in his direction.
Attack.
'Meaningless.'
His gaze paused on the chakra blade for a fraction of a second. Lei Luo activated the instantaneous deletion. The extremely sharp attack went straight through his body, and then continued to sweep forward without stopping.
There were violent explosions on the ground in the distance.
Without even looking at the damage caused by this move, Lei Luo kept walking and quickly crossed the melting ocean in front of him. After 10 seconds, he had reached the other side safely.
