The flying thunder god's technique is the skeleton, the mirage is the flesh and blood, the white light is the domain, and the high-pressure water escape is the blade...
Namikaze Minato simply... followed a path very similar to that of the Second Hokage.
Both are good at flying thunder gods and water escape ninjutsu, but compared to Senju Tobirama's large-scale water escape, although Namikaze Minato is a genuine jinchūriki, his water escape does not focus much on the range.
After personally watching several battles between Namikaze Minato and Rasa and other sand ninjas, Lei Luo discovered that Namikaze Minato seemed to be less willing to use "brute force" and his fighting style was more flexible and skillful.
Various flying thunder god teleportations, combined with various illusory projections constructed by Shanghai Mirage, and his abnormal reaction speed, can accurately calculate the projection position and the landing point of the flying thunder god kunai...
Relying on the above factors, Namikaze Minato can shift his position back and forth almost seamlessly, suddenly overlap with the projections, and launch attacks from various places that the enemy cannot imagine, creating a virtual and real scene.
On the battlefield, among the Suna ninjas, from Chiyo to Suna ninja and Genin, no one could tell which of the Namikaze Minato in front of them was real and which was fake.
Due to the particularity of the phantom projection, it is only a virtual body rather than a solid body, so it cannot be destroyed like the escape clone and the shadow clone.
And because the mirage developed is different from the second-generation water shadow, it uses the white field to distort the surrounding light changes to achieve the purpose of creating projections, and has nothing to do with illusion in nature.
Therefore, various methods of interpreting genjutsu are of no use to the mirage cast by Namikaze Minato, and are just a waste of chakra.
In other words, as long as Namikaze Minato does not take the initiative to dispel the mirage, then at least three Minato projections will always linger on the battlefield, existing forever, and forever interfering with the enemy's judgment.
That feeling is like a swarm of bloodthirsty giant mosquitoes flying around that can suddenly kill you at any time. It's extremely annoying, even... scary.
The illusion is in the light, and the body is in the dark. With the high mobility provided by the Flying Thunder God, Namikaze Minato seems to be able to launch attacks quickly from any angle, posing a very high threat to Sunagakure's high-end combat power.
For example, when Rasa faced Minato Namikaze's tactics for the first time, he was caught off guard and almost had his neck wiped directly.
This also led to the fact that every time he fought with Namikaze Minato, Rasa was almost always covered in sand armor. Sometimes, he even decisively created a ball of sand gold to surround himself, known as "Absolute"
defense".
Rasa's wretched fighting style is not surprising. In fact, including puppet masters such as Chiyo and scorching ninjas like Hagura, they have developed many defenses in order to cope with Minato Namikaze's assassin-type attack mode that combines virtual and real.
Type Ninjutsu.
To put it simply, it is "body protection ninjutsu".
The battlefield is a very cruel place, because the various fierce battles that are constantly unfolding can always eliminate batches of weak ones, allowing the real strong ones to stand out. Namikaze Minato's example is just one of them.
Correspondingly, there is Matt Dai.
Matt Dai, who has been promoted to a special jounin, has completely established his reputation after performing a series of difficult tasks assigned by Lei Luo, and the art of Eight Gate Dunjia began to shine on the battlefield.
In normal battles, Metadai only needs to open five doors or less to cope with it, but when fighting against Luo Sha and others, he usually opens six doors. Only when he is in danger, he will open seven doors.
After observing several battles of the Matdai, Lei Luo came to the conclusion that the strength of the six-door Matdai should be at the level of an elite jounin, while the strength of the seven-door is already at the Kage level.
In the past, due to his status as a genin, Matt Dai could not receive any difficult tasks, so he had no chance to perform and was buried in the background for many years.
But after he came under Lei Luo, Lei Luo not only provided him with a platform for development, promoted him, gave him money, and made him the captain of the powerful team.
Matt Dai is not a ruthless person, and his reward for Lei Luo's kindness is to complete every task assigned by Lei Luo with all his strength, no matter who the enemy is.
All fronts were advancing steadily, and the fighting was in full swing on all battlefields. Lei Luo, the captain of the team, never took action, but just sat in the midfield and commanded remotely, maintaining a low-intensity war with Sunagakure.
Even if he occasionally goes to "inspect", Lei Luo has no interest in the high-end combat capabilities of Sunagakure. He spends most of his time watching the battle secretly in order to have a good idea of the war situation.
Corresponding to Lei Luo, the Third Kazekage never appeared on the battlefield. I don’t know if he is maintaining a tacit understanding in some sense, or...
I'm preparing to hold back some big move.
…
Time passes quickly.
In the country of Kawawa, amid the raging war, the Konoha Ninja Army led by Lei Luo has been fighting against the Sunagakure Ninja Army for nearly two years.
During this long period of time, Konoha's strategy has been to advance steadily, step by step, and fight neither tepidly nor fast nor slowly.
The Konoha ninjas are like thick walls, squeezing Sunagakure's living space bit by bit, trying to drive all the Sunagakures out of the country of Kawakawa.
But after the Sand Ninjas experienced a period of disadvantage at the beginning, after they figured out Konoha's usual tactics, and figured out information about Orochimaru and other high-end combat forces, they finally gradually revealed the details of a Great Ninja Village.
, constantly stabilized their position and did not completely retreat into the Kingdom of Wind.
Facing Konoha's aggressive attack, the Sand Ninjas were still holding on, seemingly without any intention of giving up.
Sunagakure's "stubborn resistance" caused many "insightful people" on the Konoha side to ask Lei Luo for a battle, hoping that Lei Luo could concentrate his superior forces to launch a large-scale battle and completely defeat Sunagakure, but they were all defeated.
Lei Luo blocked back for various reasons.
For example...
The geographical environment of the Kingdom of Sichuan is different from that of the Kingdom of Wind, and the border line of Sichuan Fire is also different. The mountains here are dense, the rivers are crisscrossed, and the terrain structure is relatively complex, making it difficult for large-scale ninja troops to launch an offensive formation.
Or, although the Kawa Country is a small country, its land area is not that small, and its strategic depth is very long. It is also very different from the Rain Country. If the Konoha Ninja Army rushes to pursue the Suna Ninja, they will not be able to keep up with them in terms of supplies.
superior.
It was precisely because of taking the above factors into consideration that Lei Luo made preparations for a protracted war with Sunagakure, in order to ensure Konoha's victory.
At least... that's what he said on the surface.
Therefore, the war in the past two years, the confrontation between Konoha and Sunagakure on the battlefield of Kawakuni, has always been a small group of troops colliding with each other, which is very similar to the war situation in the Land of Rain.
Now, time has come to May of the 36th year of Konoha.
More than 4 years have passed since Lei Luo traveled through time.
