An explosion suddenly resounded through the sky, and the entire canyon was shaking like a severely injured giant beast.
It is made of corroded rock formations. Under such a violent impact, the canyon walls were like avalanches, pouring down from both sides.
For a time, the sound of explosions and the sound of falling rocks echoed in the canyon.
Countless detonating symbols were stacked in space and detonated in an instant, not only swallowing up many Sand Ninja who were caught off guard, but also directly blowing up a huge gap in the Yunlu Canyon like a natural chasm.
The sudden disaster shocked the Konoha ninja standing in the distance, even Minato who was leading the team.
Given his level, he was not qualified to know Chen's mission. The only people in the entire Konoha camp who knew about it were Jiraiya and Orochimaru.
As the captain of the team this time, Minato's mission was not to break through Yunlu Canyon, but to lead some ninjas to penetrate behind Sunagakure's station and plant a nail.
"There seems to be a big problem with the other party."
Standing at the front of the Konoha ninja, Minato was not sure what happened to the Suna ninja, but it was impossible to lead the ninja directly into the huge smoke and dust in front of him.
He can only issue orders after confirming safety or the enemy's combat effectiveness.
"I'll go take a look. Shikaku, you stay here. If there is any emergency, you will be the one to command the troops." After Minato said these words, he rushed in at a very fast speed and continued to explode. In the smoke and dust.
"...Minato you!"
In this case, it was obvious that Minato should have stayed here and the ninjas who were good at investigation should have gone in. However, considering that this was Minato's first time leading a team, it was not incomprehensible for him to lead the team first.
Shikaku sighed, and then all the Konoha ninjas around him entered the state of melon-eating ninjas who didn't know the truth.
"That's almost it."
About two minutes passed. Chen cut off the chakra supply of the mutual detonation talisman, and the explosion that could almost shatter the eardrums also stopped at the same time.
Under this kind of explosion, a huge gap was directly blown out of the canyon, but the entire canyon extended for several kilometers. The sand ninja were stationed in scattered places, and naturally there were many survivors.
"The art of multiple shadow clones!" Chen formed a seal with his hands, and twenty shadow clones immediately came out.
He looked at the shadow clones and said: "The next step is up to you."
"Don't worry, leave it to us." The shadow clones nodded and each rushed towards the remaining Sand Ninja.
Mikoto and Chen looked at each other and joined the massacre.
Five minutes later, without any surprise, the 300-strong combat ninja team of Sunagakure, except for the ninjas who were killed in the explosion, all died in the hands of Tatsumi and Mikoto.
When Minato entered the smoke, what caught his eyes was the half-collapsed Yunlu Canyon.
The scenery in front of me looked as if someone had struck it from the middle with a huge axe, and the entire middle part had disappeared.
Being cautious, he had no choice but to run up from the side that was still intact but still full of shatter-like cracks. As soon as he rushed out of the smoke-filled area, he saw Tatsumi and Mikoto standing on the sand dune not far away, beside them. The feet were already covered with corpses.
"What did you do?" Minato asked, pointing at the nearly destroyed canyon.
"Yes." Chen nodded.
“…”
Minato was speechless for a while. It seemed that when he led the team away from the Konoha camp, it was not unreasonable for his teacher Jiraiya to wink at him.
He was originally wondering how to pass through Yunlu Canyon, but it turned out that Orochimaru and others had already prepared.
"Because it is a top-secret mission, we cannot disclose it until the mission is completed. I'm sorry."
Minato waved his hand to signal Chen not to pay attention, and at the same time sent a signal to signal the troops to move forward.
Seeing the entire collapsed canyon, the Konoha ninjas were also shaken.
In their understanding, being able to destroy the entire canyon with one's own power is simply not something that can be done by normal ninjutsu. At least it should be done by a shadow-level ninja using forbidden techniques, or by the tailed beast that is like a natural disaster. to fulfill.
However, when everyone saw Uchiha Chen, they understood that this person's current reputation, after years of fermentation, has reached the point where no one knows it.
In private, those ordinary ninjas also made wild guesses about the strength of this Konoha Thunderbolt.
When Uchiha Tatsumi shocked the ninja world, he was only eleven years old. Now that several years have passed, even catching up with the third Hokage is not that unbelievable, right
Because there were still ninja troops behind him, Minato, as the on-site commander, didn't have time to say a few words to Chen, although he really wanted to.
After calling the large troops behind him to climb up the canyon, a few friends who were relatively familiar with Tatsu surrounded him. The first one to bear the brunt was Shikaku, who was the same captain as Minato.
Chen and Shikaku had a very good personal relationship. When they were in the ninja school, the two of them would often bask in the sun on the rooftop.
However, they haven't seen each other for a few years. Shikaku, who is already seventeen years old, has started to grow a mustache and looks much more mature than Chen.
"Chen, you are actually willing to do such a troublesome thing."
From Shikaku's perspective, even a guess could tell what kind of mission he had performed, but the details might just be unclear.
"I don't want to do it either, but the tasks have been put down. How can I still refuse?" Chen spread his hands.
"Pretending to be sick, this is my best trick."
Shikaku is still the same lazy character as before, without any change, but he only talks about it. When the war comes, he will be more reliable than anyone else.
In order to cultivate his son with an IQ of 180, Lu Yun has also begun to involve Lu Jiu in some strategic discussions.
Orochimaru and Jiraiya were very convinced of the IQ of the Nara family, so they asked Shikaku to participate in this mission.
Therefore, according to the plan, Shikaku and Minato will run to a distant place and plant a nail behind Sunagakure.
