Chapter 307 Kushina's Transfer
Chapter 307 Kushina's Transfer
On a lush, green hilltop, Ooka Shin jumped onto a large, crooked tree and gazed at a flat meadow nestled in the distant dense forest.
"We've finally arrived at our destination."
Ooka Shin let out a soft sigh, recalling what Kyosuke had told him about the guard posts and traps surrounding Kushina.
"We can't bypass all the traps, as that would arouse suspicion. It's best to lure a few people away so that Kyosuke and I can fight alone and avoid any accidents."
After a moment's thought, Ooka Shin devised a battle plan and created thirty shadow clones.
Ten of them were decoys, used to trigger mechanisms to lure Kyosuke's team away; ten would fight alongside Ooka Shin; and ten would lie in ambush nearby as backup, covering Ooka Shin's retreat should anything go wrong.
"set off!"
Ooka Shin and his numerous shadow clones rushed out. A few minutes later, one of the shadow clones fell into a trap, and the explosive tag detonated. The sound of the explosion echoed through the peaceful forest, startling a flock of birds.
"Enemies!"
Kyosuke immediately jumped onto the roof, his gaze sweeping northeastward following the sound, where he saw flames and thick smoke in the woods.
"Kakashi, you cover Kushina as she hides in the tunnel and prepare for the transfer. Obito and Shisui, you two go and hold off the enemy and scout out their strength!"
As he spoke, Kyosuke created more than a dozen shadow clones, which surrounded the house.
"There are enemies! We need to implement the emergency plan."
Kakashi entered the house with a serious expression. After forming a hand seal, the rock in the center of the ground tore open, revealing a spacious tunnel.
As you descend the stairs into the tunnel, you can see the soft light shining through it.
Kakashi entered the tunnel first, cautiously scanning his surroundings. Seeing the solid rock walls and finding everything normal, he looked up at the entrance and said, "Please come in."
Sarutobi Biwako helped Kushina down the stairs.
"I hope Kyosuke and the others are alright."
As Kushina was about to enter the cave, she turned to look at the window of the house. Through the window, she saw a grove of trees rustling in the wind, and her eyes were filled with worry.
Sarutobi Biwako comforted him, saying, "Don't worry, they are all excellent juniors, they will definitely be able to handle these matters."
Before long, they entered the underground passage, where heavy rocks shifted and blocked the entrance.
The tunnel connects to a room where they can rest. If the situation outside becomes unfavorable, they can leave directly through the tunnel.
On the ground, Obito and Shisui activated their three-tomoe Sharingan and soon after entering the dense forest, they saw the enemy coming towards them.
In an instant, Shisui activated an illusion technique, and the three people rushing towards him immediately stopped. The next moment, Shisui appeared behind the three and used the Body Flicker Technique to defeat them.
After the three people died, they left no bodies and disappeared without a trace.
Shisui returned to Obito's side and said, "This is a clone, a bait to lure us. Let's go back immediately!"
"Alright! I'll go first, you go second, let's charge out together! Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
Obito formed hand seals and spat out a ball of flame to repel the enemy in front of him. Just as he was about to turn and leave, he suddenly felt a great earthquake. Numerous rocks were torn off the ground and shot towards Obito and Shisui.
"Stop them! Mist Concealment Technique!"
One of Ooka Shin's shadow clones changed his voice, uttering a deep sound, and then created a large-scale fog that obscured the Sharingan's vision. The other shadow clones cooperated with each other, avoiding close combat with Obito and Shisui, and instead stood at a distance to perform various ninjutsu.
Gale-force winds, flames, rocks—various wide-range ninjutsu erupted continuously, halting Obito and his companion's progress.
With their combined strength, dealing with these shadow clones wouldn't be a problem, it just would take some time.
Just then, Ooka Shinya rushed up to Kyosuke.
"Who sent you?!"
Kyosuke stood on the roof, looking down at Nobuoka Ooka in front of the house.
Whether there are people around or not, they are very cautious and play their respective roles 100%.
As he spoke, one of Kyosuke's shadow clones slipped underground, preparing to ambush Ooka Shin.
Nobuyuki Ooka displayed the professionalism of an assassin, completely ignoring Kyosuke and directly ordering his shadow clone to attack Kyosuke. He then blocked Kyosuke's shadow clone and rushed towards the house himself.
"Looks like I need to finish you off quickly! Summoning Technique!"
Kyosuke immediately entered Sage Mode, leaping high into the air. Just as his body was about to fall, the enormous Gamaken appeared, and Kyosuke landed steadily on Gamaken's head.
Gamaken stood in front of the house, blocking Ooka Shin's path. At the same time, he forcefully swung the iron fork in his hand, instantly turning several of Ooka Shin's clones who were about to attack Kyosuke into smoke.
At the same time, Kyosuke's shadow clone, which had been lurking underground, jumped out of the ground and appeared behind Ooka Shin. Holding a long sword high above his head, it slashed fiercely at the back of Ooka Shin's head.
"Cover me!"
Kyosuke shouted, leaving afterimages as he spun a Rasengan in his right hand and flew towards Ooka Shin.
"I'm so clumsy!"
Gamaken gripped the iron fork in his right hand and swung it repeatedly, striking Ooka Shin's shadow clones to protect Kyosuke's back.
Upon hearing the commotion behind him, Ooka Shin immediately took a step to the left, simultaneously turning around with his right hand gripping a kunai and stabbing Kyosuke's shadow clone in the heart.
"So fast!"
The shadow clone dissipated, but Ooka Shin's expression changed because Kyosuke in Sage Mode had greatly enhanced his taijutsu and was faster, arriving at his side much faster than he had expected.
Before he could react, the Rasengan struck Ooka Shin directly in the abdomen. The immense force sent Ooka Shin flying, crashing into the forest and shattering trees, raising a cloud of dust.
Suddenly, all of Ooka Shin's shadow clones near the house disappeared. Kyosuke remained in place, cautiously sending out only shadow clones to pursue the enemy.
A moment later, the shadow clone sent back a message that the enemy had disappeared.
At this moment, Obito and Shisui also arrived and carefully surveyed the surrounding environment with their Sharingan, but found no enemies.
Shisui frowned and said, "Captain, this attack is very suspicious. Our intelligence has been leaked, and we must inform the Hokage."
Kyosuke nodded: "You're right. Obito, go and tell Kakashi to come out. We'll move immediately."
After giving Obito a brief instruction, Kyosuke used a summoning jutsu to summon a small purple toad and handed it a note with information written on it.
"The situation is critical. Please inform the Hokage as soon as possible."
The purple-skinned toad nodded, stuck out its long tongue, rolled up the paper strip, swallowed it, then formed a hand seal to dispel the psychic connection and disappeared.
Kushina emerged from the tunnel and was relieved to see that everyone was alright.
"It's so good that everyone is alright."
Kyosuke smiled and said in a calm voice, "We're all very strong, so don't worry. Let's find a place to stay first."
Obito asked, "Shall we go to the backup base?"
Kyosuke shook his head: "If the enemy can find this place, they might have also discovered a backup base. We'll find a random place to rest, and the teacher will contact us when he gets nearby."
Zhi Shui spoke up at the opportune moment: "Our scroll contains a lot of supplies, enough to last for several days."
After discussing it, the group arrived at the foot of the mountain a kilometer away. Kyosuke used earth magic to create a spacious cave, while the others set up seals and traps.
