"I took out at least three Iwa ninjas with this shot!"
"I took out one with this Korega shot!"
"What the hell! You guys are really in a Kai now!"
The leading shadow clone slapped the heads of those shadow clones who were engaged in the internal competition and shouted angrily.
"The danger to our main body hasn't been eliminated yet. The top priority now is to take on those Iwa ninjas! Got it?"
"Got it, Captain."
The shadow clones rubbed their heads awkwardly and refilled the shells into the electromagnetic cannons.
In order to maximize the combat effectiveness of the Magnetic Storm Legion, Satoru Hyūga had been training them in a military - style.
It seemed that the results were quite significant.
Although with his current ability, there are only a dozen people in a battalion, in the future, once his strength increased significantly.
He would be able to create a real regiment. When the Magnetic Storm Legion descended upon the ninja world, even a major ninja village would probably be in a panic.
Satoru Hyūga didn't participate in this battle personally. Taking advantage of the opportunity that Tōdo's troops were held back by his shadow clones, he began to make elaborate arrangements along the path he had walked.
Since he had decided to use this Iwa ninja unit as a whetstone for himself, he had to prepare several more "gifts".
Satoru Hyūga's lips curled up slightly.
Tōdo, who had been stunned by the successive cannon shots, finally came to his senses.
He looked back and saw that the formation of the Iwa ninja unit had already been scattered. The ground was full of huge craters, and there were severed limbs of Iwa ninjas everywhere.
"Damn it!"
Gritting his teeth tightly, Tōdo immediately formed seals and slapped his hands hard on the ground.
Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall Technique!
With a loud rumbling sound, several rows of rock walls suddenly rose from the ground, blocking the path of the electromagnetic cannon's impact.
Boom!
Rubble flew everywhere. Several layers of the earth flow wall were directly blown off, but it also temporarily slowed down the opponent's offensive.
Taking this momentary respite, the remaining Iwa ninjas immediately came to their senses and each used Earth Style ninjutsu to defend against the electromagnetic cannon's attacks.
After all, this was the vanguard unit of the Iwa ninjas. Those assigned to this unit were all elites from Iwagakure. Their combat qualities and psychological resilience were not bad.
After a brief moment of panic, they immediately regained their composure and entered the battle state.
"Split into two teams. One team uses Earth Style ninjutsu for defense, and the other team uses long - range attack ninjutsu. They're just shadow clones. Once hit, they'll disappear."
Tōdo tried his best to calm himself down and calmly issued the order.
Suddenly, a sense of absurdity and hilarity welled up in his heart.
Was he really using tactics against a bunch of shadow clones?
What a joke!
Aren't shadow clones just for going all - out recklessly?
Using the suicidal and human - wave tactics to exhaust the enemy's stamina or to obscure the enemy's vision so they can't find one's position.
Did multiple shadow clones have this kind of use?
Are these really shadow clones? They're more like a ninja troop!
Just as his thoughts were in chaos, the Iwa ninjas around him suddenly rushed over in a panic to report.
"Lord Tōdo!"
"Oh no! Those shadow clones seem to be wearing special metal armors. Our attacks can't break through their defenses!"
Tōdo's blood pressure suddenly soared. He felt as if his heart was about to burst.
He immediately poked his head out and saw that when the Iwa ninjas' long - range ninjutsu hit those shadow clones, it made a metal - colliding sound and bounced off directly.
Shadow clones with armor?
Is this even a thing?
Gritting his teeth so hard that they were almost broken, Tōdo knew he couldn't delay any longer.
Previously, he hadn't gone all out because he didn't want to consume too much chakra on these shadow clones and wanted to save more energy to deal with the real Satoru Hyūga.
But now, faced with a group of unreasonable shadow clones.
If he delayed any longer, he might not even be able to catch a glimpse of Satoru Hyūga.
Taking a deep breath, the chakra in his body surged wildly. Tōdo quickly formed hand seals and then slapped the ground forcefully with one palm.
"//Earth Style! Yamato no Jutsu!//Earth Style! Yamato no Jutsu![/b]"
Along with the loud rumbling sound, the ground under the shadow clones suddenly cracked, like a wild beast opening its blood - filled mouth, swallowing the surrounding shadow clones and their ninja tool together.
"Son of a bitch! Playing dirty, are you?!"
A large number of shadow clones fell into the pit and angrily cursed.
The huge rock hemispheres on both sides slowly closed, making a deafening noise as they rolled towards them.
Under this terrifying force, even though the shadow clones were wearing special metal armors, they couldn't defend against this attack. They constantly made popping sounds and dissipated into white mist.
"Captain! What should we do?"
The few remaining shadow clones looked at the leading one.
The leading shadow clone suddenly turned around and looked in the direction where Satoru Hyūga was running away. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and he murmured.
"Original body, I've completed my mission!"
Bang!
The rock walls completely closed, completely engulfing him.
Satoru Hyūga, who was setting up Booby Trap, suddenly received a large amount of feedback. He subconsciously supported a nearby tree and gasped for breath.
"Being able to hold on for so long is beyond my expectation. You've done a great job."
After digesting the feedback, Satoru Hyūga slightly curled the corner of his mouth and flew towards the distance.
"Tōdo, I've prepared the second gift for you."
"I hope you won't be disappointed."
"Count the number of people! Report the loss situation!"
After finishing the release of //Earth Style! Yamato no Jutsu!//Earth Style! Yamato no Jutsu![/b], Tōdo gasped a few times and calmly gave the order.
"Report, there are currently 139 people left and 87 people lost."
"Shit!"
Tōdo gritted his teeth tightly.
Just a group of shadow clones had caused them to lose more than 80 people?
Humiliation and horror made the killing intent in his heart even stronger.
The pursuit had been going on for a long time. If they couldn't kill Satoru Hyūga, they might be close to the border of the Land of Fire.
The main force was still far away from here. Entering the sphere of influence of Konoha now was like walking into a trap.
What worried Tōdo even more was that the Hokage had obviously placed many scouts in the Grass Country.
Even though it was night, with such a huge commotion, they probably noticed it.
Maybe the Hokage had already prepared and the supporting ninja were on their way.
Tōdo's eyes were cold and fierce. There's no going back now.
Satoru Hyūga was a huge threat, not just because of his terrifying talent, but also because of the upcoming Third Shinobi World War.
The Tsuchikage had been planning for this war for a long time, and Satoru Hyūga's strange ability, if used properly, could almost influence the outcome of this war.
Even if they gave up now, having suffered such heavy losses and gotten nothing, the Tsuchikage would definitely punish him severely.
As the leader of the vanguard, he had signed a military pledge...
In that case...
Tōdo's eyes burned with cold determination.
He'd go all out to get rid of Satoru Hyūga, this big headache.
"Can you still lock in the opponent's position?"
The only remaining sensory ninja had a trace of fear on his face and stammered,
"The opponent seems to be extremely exhausted. His movement speed after using shadow clone isn't fast. If we chase after him, we should still be able to catch up."
"Good! Full speed ahead! We must kill him this time!"
Killing intent was palpable on Tōdo's ferocious face.
