Why had Konoha always been so powerful?
Apart from the Senju Hashirama brothers and Uchiha Madara who were both outstanding talents, they were also closely related to the many families who had chosen to join Senju Clan.
Each of these families had their own unique skills, secret technique or Kekkei Genkai.
It was to support Konoha's pillar!
This was also one of the reasons why after losing Uchiha Madara, Senju Hashirama, and Senju Tobirama, Konoha was still able to stand tall under the siege of the four great powers.
Without him, the foundation was too rich!
What Guren saw now was a miniature version of Konoha's foundation.
Shikakichi and the others didn't even need to expend much effort to instantly defeat the numerous Snow Ninjas!
"It's no wonder that guy would do such a thing in order to catch these people."
Guren was originally puzzled, but now she understood everything.
Soon, under the search of Tokugawa's Byakugan and Shima's parasite, all the remaining Snow Ninjas who were still alive or hiding in the snow were killed, leaving only two alive and continued to lead the way.
Of course, this time, Shikakichi would not make the same mistake as before.
"Let's go. We must get to the destination before new enemies catch up."
Not long after Shikakichi and the others left, another group of Snow Ninjas rushed over.
When they saw the corpses on the ground, they immediately realized that the people they had discovered before had come prepared, and they were definitely tough to deal with!
"Looking at the footprints left here, the target of the other party should be Kazahana Castle, and it is even possible that they are coming for His Majesty!"
"Kaito-sama has yet to return. It seems that we can only inform the Second Prince first. The enemy is menacing, and ordinary Snow Ninjas are no match for them. We have to send out the Ice Beast Army!"
"That's right, we can only do this. We have to rush to the other side and intercept them before they reach the imperial city!"
After the group of Snow Ninjas reached a consensus, they immediately scattered.
Relying on their familiarity with the environment and high mobility, they quickly relayed the information.
As a result, Shikakichi and the others who had just experienced an ambush welcomed a new test.
...
Byakugan had been carefully activating it all this time, scouting at a 360 degree angle without any blind spots.
Suddenly, Hyuga Tokugawa's expression changed. He said in a low voice, "The enemy is approaching quickly from the front. No, on the left, on the right. We are surrounded!"
Byakugan's detection range was within a kilometer and could penetrate objects to investigate.
However, Hyuga Tokugawa could not understand how the enemy could control their position and surround them accurately.
Even the footprints that followed them could not do this!
"If I can't dodge it, then I can only do one."
"Be careful!"
Before Shikakichi could finish speaking, he was pressed down by Akimichi Nishi's palm, which had been expanded by a part of the technique.
A huge piece of ice fell from the sky and hit the back of Akimichi Nishi's hand. He could not help but groan.
If he had not raised his head to take a look and protected Shikakichi in time, this 'Cold Ice Meteorite' would have been enough to smash him into meat paste!
"Nishi, thank you. You saved my life!" Shikakichi, who had escaped death, said gratefully.
"Nothing." Akimichi Nishi withdrew his hand and forced a silly smile. However, the intense pain made his smile very ugly.
"Nishi, your hand."
"It's nothing. It should just be a broken bone. It doesn't matter." Akimichi Nishi said very tough-looking, but the fine sweat on his forehead betrayed him.
It was clear that this was not a small injury. His entire hand was swollen and could not move at all.
At this time, Inuzuka Kou could not help but shout again, "Be careful, it's coming again!"
Before his voice fell, several huge ice cubes fell down.
However, because everyone was on guard this time, they only destroyed the formation and no one was injured again.
However, Tokugawa was not happy at all. "The enemies around us are all coming up!"
Using this time, the encirclement almost instantly contracted.
The Snow Ninjas with similar numbers as Tokugawa and the others all stared at them.
At this time, the enemies in the sky finally descended.
It was actually a woman wearing tight armor. She looked very young and a little strange.
But she could actually fly?
Shikakichi finally knew why they were surrounded. It was obvious that this guy was tracking them in the air, so he avoided Hyuga Tokugawa and the others' detection.
After she landed, she and a big man who was as strong as a bear stood on both sides. She respectfully lowered her head, and then a figure slowly walked out.
"In the name of the second Prince of the Land of Snow, I sentence you and other outsiders to death!"
Without any nonsense at all, Koruchi, who was wearing chakra armor, directly gave the order.
So many Snow Ninjas had died, did he still want to argue with the enemy?
Of course, it was to pay with blood!
Therefore, all kinds of Ice Release Ninjutsu were displayed in an instant.
At this point, Guren suddenly made her move!
Although the main fighting force of this mission was Hyuga Tokugawa and the others, at the same time, she also understood that if these people died here, it was estimated that when they went back, that guy would explode with anger!
So when it was time for her to make a move, she would not hesitate.
The thick and solid crystal shield instantly enveloped everyone, blocking all the Ice Release, giving others the opportunity to counterattack at any time.
Seeing this, Koruchi's expression did not change at all. He just calmly said, "Chikao, Kairi, lead people to kill them all!"
"Yes, Your Highness!" The two of them respectfully accepted the order.
Chikao, which was the woman who could fly just now, immediately flew up into the sky again.
As for Kairi, he really rushed out like a bear.
Unlike the Snow Ninjas that Hyuga Tokugawa and the others had encountered before, all of the members of this Ice Beast Army were the owners of Ice Release Kekkei Genkai. Moreover, their names all carried a type of beast.
Including the Itsuki who had previously led people to rescue Koyuki in Amegakure, he was one of them, and one of the three vice-captains of the Ice Beast Army.
In the end, when he was carrying out a mission, he was directly killed by Haru.
After all, Ice Release was nothing in front of Jinchuriki, not to mention fighting with Jinchuriki who had transformed into a Semi-Bijuu in a limited space.
Even the average Kage Level could not guarantee that he would win, let alone Koruchi who was only at Jonin Level.
However, this time was different. Not only did the Snow Ninjas of the Ice Beast Army occupy the terrain, but Koruchi and the two vice-captains also wore the carefully developed chakra armor, while Tokugawa and the others didn't have Jinchuriki to help them fight here.
Therefore, the situation of the battle suddenly became tense.
