"What happened?!"
In front of the protective film, Dodai struggled to control the protective film to block the overwhelming insects coming from Shikuro, so he couldn't spare his energy to pay attention to the battle situation on the back.
"Dodai-sama…"
A veteran Chunin had a solemn expression and said while gnashing his teeth, "A Konoha's Genin has disappeared! Yuntaro and Konosuke have been killed!"
"What?!"
Dodai's complexion changed, and he couldn't help but look back. And then he saw Yuntaro and Konosuke collapsed on the grass, motionless!
Although Yuntaro and Konosuke are both Genin, they are good in both Ninjutsu and Taijutsu. Their strength is much stronger than ordinary Genin, and they also have the advantage of numbers. In this case, how can the Konoha's Genin fight back?
'Is this a dream?!'
As a result, Dodai was distracted and turned his head, and Shikuro's insect army finally caught a glimpse of a flaw, and a thread drilled from the edge of the huge protective film.
Although it is just a thread, there are thousands of Kikaichū in this thread. And after breaking through Dodai's protective film, they immediately rushed towards Shisui, Yui, and the three Kumogakure's Shinobi like a plague of locusts!
Dodai's complexion greatly changed when he saw this!
As he is also a Jōnin, Dodai's strength is not bad, and he even have Lava Release Kekkei Genkai, but his Lava Release's development direction is for defense, while Shikuro's insect is good at both offense and defense!
While fighting against each other, Shikuro only needs to create a small part of the insect to pose a huge threat to Dodai's subordinates!
So while in the dense forest before, the cautious Dodai did not act rashly, but waited for the transferred group of Kumogakure's Shinobi to ambush at the exit of the dense forest before launching a sneak attack!
He had calculated that as long as he can drag Shikuro for one minute, his five subordinates can take down the three Genin, and then take the Konoha's Genin as hostages and withdraw from here!
Yes, Dodai's target from beginning to end is not Shikuro, but those Genin, more specifically, Shisui!
As long as they bring Shisui back to Kumogakure and treat him as a breeding stock, in a few decades, Kumogakure can also have a powerful Sharingan clan!
For this reason, he specially arranged two Chunin for Shisui!
As for the other two Konoha's Genin, Dodai has also prepared three Genin, not aiming to achieve the best possible result, but rather trying to avoid making mistakes!
But what Dodai didn't expect was that after one minute passed. not only did his two Chunin subordinates failed to take down Shisui, but the Konoha's Genin killed Yuntaro and Konosuke. And as he was distracted, Shikuro's insect took the opportunity to break through his Lava Release Rubber Wall!
Seeing that the large number of Kikaichū is about to cover his remaining three subordinates, the surprised and furious Dodai decisively ordered: "Retreat immediately!"
The three Kumogakure's Shinobi looked at Shisui and Yui who were about to be defeated, and then look at the insect cloud a few meters away from the top of their heads, and after a little hesitation, they used Body Flicker Technique to quickly retreat.
Seeing his three subordinates withdraw, Dodai breathed a sigh of relief, but at this split second, he suddenly felt a strange tremor in his left temple, as if someone was holding a sharp weapon against his temple!
Dodai's one-eyed sank slightly, and he immediately became fully alert, and he suddenly noticed that the air flow on the left side was different. He didn't dare to be careless, and immediately bent sideways and kicked out.
Boom!
There was clearly nothing there, but Dodai felt like he had kicked someone!
'Invisibility Technique?'
'It was unexpectedly only noticed by me when he came closer, what a terrifying Invisibility Technique!'
'No wonder Yuntaro and Konosuke died so quickly!'
Dodai's face was terrifyingly gloomy: 'So, this guy is the one ruining my plan?!'
'Damn Konoha's Genin!'
Kanpū, who was kicked by Dodai, slid out on the grass for ten meters before he could stop.
"Ouch!!"
Kanpū spewed out a mouthful of blood, feeling that two of ribs were broken.
He stretched out his hand and touched it, 'Um, it was an illusion, it didn't break.'
'It's all thanks to Kushina-nee for providing the Uzumaki Clan's physique, otherwise, this foot would really make me lie on the bed for a month!
Then, he looked towards Dodai, and secretly thought that he was really arrogant!
Just now, he used Transparent Release to assassinate two Kumogakure's Genin without them knowing, causing his confidence to increase greatly. After seeing that Dodai had to maintain the protective film and was distracted by his subordinates, he felt that it was a good opportunity.
Unfortunately, Dodai's alertness was too high. And as soon as Kanpū took out a senbon and aimed at his temple, he was kicked away.
Kanpū's desire to survive exploded, and while continuing to maintain the state of invisibility, he was lying on the grass, pushing his feet lightly, enduring the pain in his chest and slowly moved back.
At the same time, Shikuro's insect finally fell, and surrounded Shisui and Yui.
Dodai knew that this ambush had failed, but he was unwilling to leave, especially leaving the Genin who destroyed his plan. 'Unforgivable!!'
"Fire Release: Clouds and Flowing Fire!"
Dodai formed hand seals, and a large number of cloud-shaped flames spewed out from his ferocious left side.
Although Kanpū has moved back a few meters, the flames are fierce and have a wide range, and once hit the ground, they will surely start a prairie fire!
Kanpū couldn't escape, so he had to stand up reluctantly and quickly formed hand seals with both hands.
Doton: Doryūheki! (Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall)
Kanpū slapped the ground with both hands, and Chakra poured into the ground instantly, creating a stone wall over two meters high in front of him.
In the next moment, the cloud-like flames slammed into the stone wall one after another, splashing countless sparks and stone chips!
Sparks fell on the grass, and traces of white smoke rose slowly along with the reddish flames.
As Dodai focused on Kanpū, Shikuro's insect army finally completely bypassed Dodai's protective film and swarmed at him like a sandstorm.
Dodai glanced at the insect cloud, and with a cold snort, he used Body Flicker Technique, and he appeared behind the earth wall made by Kanpū almost instantly. At the same time, a vague figure suddenly jumped up from the grass, trying to escape.
Dodai's eye flashed the cold and vicious cold light. He took out a kunai, rushed up and pierced the figure's vest.
But before Dodai could be happy, the figure turned into smoke and dissipated with a bang.
'Shadow clone?'
Dodai was furious when he saw this.
But at this time, the insect cloud has come a few meters in front of him and if he continued to stay here, he would be wrapped by the insect cloud, and once that happens, the consequences will be serious!
"Godd***it!!"
Dodai cursed angrily, turned around and withdrew.
The insect cloud did not chase after him. Shikuro controlled the insect to fly around, and after confirming that all Kumogakure's Shinobi had withdrawn, he took back the insect cloud.
"Are you all okay?"
Shikuro walked slowly, his expression couldn't be seen at this moment.
"Shikuro-sensei, I'm fine!"
Shisui was breathing heavily and took out a military ration pill to replenish his stamina, and at the same time, he used a bandage to stop the bleeding.
Even though Yui was battered and exhausted by the Kumogakure's Genin, fortunately, she was not injured, but she almost out of Chakra.
At this time, Kanpū stopped the Transparent Release, and stood up from the grass with difficulty. He then raised his hand and said: "Shikuro-sensei, I have been injured at work!"
"Hmph!"
Shikuro snorted angrily, "Kanpū, you are so reckless this time! You actually dare to assassinate a Jōnin!"
Kanpū was immediately embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I'm a little over the top."
Kanpū knew very well that if he succeeded, he will be a hero. Unfortunately, he fails, so he can only be scolded obediently and honestly.
Shikuro then said with a cold tone: "Most of the Kumogakure's Shinobi is good at Taijutsu, and is extremely sensitive to the movement around them. If it weren't for the loud noise coming from the insects covering your footsteps, you would have been spotted by them when you approach them!"
Kanpū humbly accepted the criticism, while also stretched out his hand to perform a Healing Technique to heal himself.
"But..."
At the end of Shikuro's speech, he changed his tone and said, "Good job, if it wasn't for your sneak attack that killed the two Kumogakure's Genin, and cause Dodai to reveal a flaw, I couldn't break through Dodai's Ninjutsu so quickly. You also helped Shisui and Yui from the dangerous situation, Kanpū, you saved Team 2!"
