Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sturdy Earth Release barriers on the warehouse, under this dense bombardment, lasted for less than a few moments before they were covered in cracks and collapsed with a bang.
Revealing the fragile wooden roof of the warehouse beneath.
A Chakra Arrow easily blasted a large hole in the wooden roof of the warehouse, followed by more Chakra Arrows whistling through the hole into the building.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Explosions rang out one after another inside the warehouse, and the wooden structure was turned to dust under the intense bombardment.
Then, an even more terrifying chain reaction was completely triggered.
The mountain of Explosive Tags piled up in the warehouse!
Under the high temperatures of the dense external bombardment, they began to detonate in a series of sympathetic explosions!
Boom!
The violent explosion shook the ground and the mountains!
A massive mushroom cloud rose into the sky, and the scorching firelight dyed half the night sky orange-red.
The violent shockwave swept out in all directions from the core area.
And what was even more terrifying...
...was that the Ninja Tools piled with the Explosive Tags gained terrifying kinetic energy from the violent explosion and shot out in all directions.
"Ah..."
"Why are there Shuriken too..."
The Ninja who were maintaining defensive Ninjutsu were caught completely off guard by the suddenly flying Ninja Tools; they were easily pierced and fell one after another.
The sounds of explosions rose and fell, merging into one. In a short time, the entire Kumogakure logistics base was transformed into a sea of fire and hell.
Yoshikawa Iwa looked at the scene before him, his teeth gnashing and his eyes nearly spitting fire with rage.
Why?
He had already been demoted to guarding the warehouse because of this bastard. Why wouldn't this jerk let him go?
He suddenly looked toward the hillside where those red Chakra Arrows were coming from, clenching his fists.
"Leave a few people to put out the fire! Everyone else, follow me to tear that bastard into ten thousand pieces!"
...Meanwhile, on the hillside.
Uchiha Shisui looked at the beautiful Spirit Bow in Aokawa's hand, which was crawling with flames. Countless crimson Chakra Arrows completely covered the enemy's warehouse, turning it into a hellish sea of fire in a short time.
The shock in his heart could not be calmed for a long time.
Was this what he meant by a "true large-scale attack"?
"This, this..." Uchiha Shisui no longer knew how to describe his current feelings.
Since childhood, he had carried the halo of a Genius; he was always the one who made others pale at the mention of his name.
He never expected that one day someone would make him lose his composure.
Is this how a Ninja fights?
Is this right?
Is this reasonable?
Shouldn't he be like himself, with exquisite movement and sharp sword skills, taking the enemy's head in the dark?
How could one person act like an entire army, standing on a hillside, chatting and laughing while bombing the enemy below into crying for their parents, all while remaining unstained by a single speck of dust?
If this is a Ninja, then what path am I walking?
For a moment, Uchiha Shisui was distraught, feeling lost about his future path for the first time.
Might Guy, on the other hand, was much simpler.
Being almost obsessed with Taijutsu, he wouldn't feel lost about the future because of the shocking scene before him.
He just kept giving a thumbs-up and shouting things like, "This is the fire of youth!"
Seeing that the supplies in the warehouse were almost destroyed and Yoshikawa Iwa was even leading the survivors to charge toward them...
Aokawa made a prompt decision and barked, "Retreat!"
Although there was still some distance between them, it would take some time to go down the mountain, so they had to evacuate early.
The three turned and ran, racing madly down the mountain.
Aokawa let Shisui and Guy lead the way while he brought up the rear.
Red light flashed in his hand as he poured a large amount of Chakra into the Spirit Bow; a much larger Chakra Arrow was slowly condensing.
At the same time, his Byakugan remained focused on the pursuers behind them, silently calculating the distance.
Just as the pursuers behind them passed the pile of supplies on the outskirts that Shisui and Guy had tagged with Explosive Tags...
He suddenly turned around, drawing the Spirit Bow to its limit. A flaming Chakra Arrow, larger than any before, formed, its shaft covered in complex explosive runes.
"Fire Release: Demon Break Explosive Flame Arrow!"
The giant Chakra Arrow flashed with red light and shot accurately toward the pile of supplies.
Boom—!!!
With a world-shaking roar, the Chakra Arrow exploded precisely in the air amidst the crowd!
The team of pursuers around it didn't even have time to scream before they were blown to pieces.
Immediately after, the wave of the explosion ignited the Explosive Tags on the supplies.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Before the flames from the first explosion could subside, they flared up violently again.
A series of explosions and shockwaves across the entire perimeter instantly swallowed the pursuers in the area.
Yoshikawa Iwa was even pressed down by the violent shockwave, unable to lift his head.
The power of this secondary explosion caused all the pursuing Cloud Hidden Ninja to falter.
Seeing their companions ahead being blown to bits in a series of explosions, a mix of fear and anger spread through the crowd.
"Chase them, keep chasing!" Yoshikawa Iwa said viciously. "That last Chakra Arrow was fired from halfway up the mountain. They have to take a detour to get down; there's still a chance."
As Yoshikawa Iwa expected, by the time Aokawa and the others reached the foot of the mountain, the distance between the two sides had been narrowed to 300 meters.
"Over there! Catch them!"
The Cloud Hidden Ninja who survived the ruins and flames were covered in blood, their eyes bloodshot as they roared and chased after the three.
Meanwhile, in the forest ahead, a large amount of Chakra fluctuations suddenly appeared. One by one, Kumogakure Ninja holding Kunai looked at them with fierce eyes, blocking their path.
With pursuers behind and an ambush ahead, the three were trapped in a desperate situation.
"This is trouble." For the first time, a solemn expression appeared on Uchiha Shisui's face.
"It's not time to give up yet!"
Green Chakra steam began to rise from Guy's body. "Youth will not end here!"
"Leave it to me! I'll clear the way! Leaf Whirlwind!"
With that, Might Guy became like a green whirlwind, kicking the frontmost Kumogakure Ninja away and forcibly breaking a path through.
Uchiha Shisui followed closely behind, his Ninja Blade swinging. Combined with the Body Flicker Technique, he continuously disrupted the pursuers' formation.
Aokawa was in the rear, using Hirenkyaku to move at high speed while turning back to draw his bow and fire at the pursuers.
Crimson energy Chakra Arrows were fired accurately at the densest parts of the pursuing crowd. Every hit sent them sprawling.
"Scatter, scatter..." Yoshikawa Iwa, at the back of the group, roared with all his might...
