Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: The Battle Ends

Karot slashed at Kamishiro with his ninja sword, but unexpectedly, this Kamishiro turned out to be an Iron Sand Clone.

Kamishiro's voice sounded from above.

"Idiot, how could I possibly put myself in danger!"

At this moment, Kamishiro was standing on the trunk of a tree.

Kamishiro had finished forming the hand seals and stretched out his palm towards Karot.

"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Coffin Binding!"

Kamishiro used the Iron Sand that had fallen to the ground after the Iron Sand Clone dispersed and rushed towards Karot at breakneck speed.

Although Karot reacted quickly and immediately dodged, he was too close to the Iron Sand on the ground.

Kamishiro manipulated the Iron Sand and successfully Coiled Around Karot's ankles.

Karot lost his balance and fell to the ground.

The Iron Sand quickly spread over Karot's body.

Karot was stunned and roared at Rumota, who was still hiding: "Rumota, what are you doing! I told you to come with me. What are you still hiding for? Do you want to watch me die?!"

Rumota's eyelids twitched.

So that's what Karot meant when he nodded at him earlier.

"Shadow Thunder Thrust!"

Lightning Bolts erupted all over Rumota's body. He used the lightning to stimulate his body and charged towards Karot.

Rumota wanted to use his ninja sword to cut through the Iron Sand covering Karot.

Naturally, Kamishiro wouldn't just watch Rumota rescue Karot.

Kamishiro took out three Kunai and threw them at Rumota.

Rumota, who was moving at extremely high speed, easily dodged the three Kunai thrown by Kamishiro by side - hopping three times.

Rumota quickly rushed in front of Karot, raised his ninja sword high and was about to strike.

Karot closed his eyes and didn't dare to move, afraid that Rumota would miss the Zangei.

However, Karot didn't wait for Rumota's Zangei. Instead, he heard Rumota emit a muffled groan.

Karot opened his eyes and looked at Rumota, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?!"

Rumota's face was twisted in pain, and blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

Three Kunai had pierced his back.

Kamishiro immediately manipulated Kanna and charged towards Rumota. He swung his ninja sword at Rumota.

Rumota ignored his injuries and immediately blocked with his sword horizontally.

But another strange thing happened.

After Kanna's ninja sword was blocked horizontally by Rumota, the blade suddenly extended and pierced Rumota's throat.

Rumota covered his neck, his mouth moved as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter a single word. He fell to the ground, twitched a few times and then lost his life.

Karot was completely stunned by this sudden scene.

Why, why were three Kunai suddenly stuck in Rumota's back?

Clearly, there was no fifth person around. So who threw these three Kunai?

These three Kunai that pierced Rumota's back were, of course, the work of Kamishiro.

Moreover, these three Kunai were the ones Kamishiro had thrown and Rumota had dodged.

As for why the Kunai returned to pierce Rumota's back, it was because Kamishiro had used the Magnet Release: Magnetization Technique before throwing them.

After using the Magnet Release: Magnetization Technique, Kamishiro could magnetize the things he touched, or transfer the magnetization from the things he touched to other objects, and then attack the enemy with magnetism.

Just now, Kamishiro had touched the Kunai, making them magnetic.

Then, because Kamishiro had used the Magnet Release: Magnetization Technique, he himself was magnetic.

So after Rumota dodged the three Kunai, Kamishiro used the magnetism of his body to attract the three Kunai back and pierce Rumota's back.

Finally, using Kanna's ninja sword, he unexpectedly extended its blade and stabbed it into Rumota's neck, successfully taking out Rumota.

Kakashi stared at Kamishiro in surprise.

Kakashi didn't expect that Kamishiro, who had decided to engage in The Battle, actually had a rather high battle IQ.

At this time, Karot's whole body was covered by Iron Sand. Being wrapped in the high - density Iron Sand made it difficult for Karot to breathe.

Kamishiro stretched out his palm again and aimed it at Karot.

"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Burial!"

The Iron Sand wrapping Karot squeezed inward, and a dull sound of bones breaking came out.

Karot was squeezed to death by the Iron Sand.

Three Cloud Ninjas were taken out by Kamishiro.

Kamishiro wiped the imaginary sweat off his forehead, took a deep breath, and said, "What an extremely tough battle!"

"Uh..."

Kakashi, Obito, and Rin Nohara stared at Kamishiro wordlessly.

Tough?

No matter how you looked at it, The Battle didn't seem tough for Kamishiro at all, did it?

It was an almost crushing victory from start to finish. What was so difficult about it?

Kakashi already had a general yet definite understanding of Kamishiro's strength.

If Kamishiro didn't think about fleeing and fought like this, he definitely had jounin - level strength.

Among these three Cloud Ninjas, one was an elite chunin and the other two were regular chunins. They were definitely no match for Kamishiro with jounin - level strength.

And if Kamishiro thought about running away, it was uncertain how much strength he could display.

Kamishiro walked up to Obito, who was the nearest, and looked at Obito's badly swollen cheek. With an indescribable look on his face, he said, "Obito, you look so ugly now. You look like a pumpkin."

Obito said angrily, "You're the pumpkin! If you had come to help earlier, we wouldn't have gotten hurt." 

Kamishiro immediately retorted, "I'm not taking the rap for this. Kakashi said to retreat himself. I was just following his orders!"

Obito rolled his eyes at Kamishiro, then ran to Kakashi's side and asked Rin Nohara, "Rin, how's Kakashi?"

Rin Nohara looked worriedly at Kakashi's wounds and said, "Kakashi is pretty badly injured. I can only give him first aid to stop the bleeding for now. The proper treatment has to be done after we get back to the camp."

Kamishiro also came in front of Kakashi. Seeing Kakashi in such a sorry state and remembering what Kakashi had said about them being surrounded by the Cloud Ninjas, he said anxiously, "Rin, are you done? Let's get out of here fast. If the Cloud Ninjas surround us, we're finished."

Rin Nohara nodded and said, "I'm done."

Kamishiro directly ordered Obito, "Obito, carry Kakashi on your back. Let's get out of here fast!"

Obito pointed at himself in disbelief and said, "Hey, I'm also injured. You're not hurt. Can't you carry him?"

Kamishiro said righteously, "Me? I've over - exhausted my chakra and I'm totally wiped out. Hurry up and stop talking nonsense. If we don't leave right now, I'll run away and leave you guys behind!"

"What the heck? Talking so loudly. You don't look like you've over - exhausted your chakra at all."

Obito had a dark look on his face. While grumbling, he carried Kakashi on his back.

Kakashi said weakly, "Let's retreat quickly. I've sent Guruku to the camp to report the intelligence. Lord Jiraiya and the others should already be on the move."

Kamishiro, with Obito carrying Kakashi on his back, and Rin Nohara rushed towards Konoha's camp.
