*Whoosh whoosh whoosh~*
A dozen shuriken shot towards him.
Seii paused slightly, the three tomoe in his pupils spinning rapidly, instantly locking onto the flight trajectories of all the incoming shuriken.
Then, he either dodged or blocked, perfectly avoiding all the attacks.
However, before he could even catch his breath, several kunai flew towards him. With the help of his Sharingan, Seii clearly saw the explosive tags tied to them.
Without any hesitation, Seii used several Body Flickers to create distance.
*Boom* *Boom* *Boom*
Violent explosions rang out one after another, and fireballs appeared, compressing the surrounding air and forming several shockwaves, causing Seii's hair to flutter wildly.
Just as he was waiting for the shockwaves to pass, a series of sharp whistles of varying lengths sounded on the battlefield.
Instantly, the Iwa ninjas on the battlefield, as if receiving so kind of order, quickly retreated, creating distance from the Konoha ninjas in no ti.
That's right, Seii was currently on the battlefield.
At this mont, half a month had passed since he awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, and twelve days had passed since he started his training.
And just on the second day of his training, the Iwa ninjas had completed their preparations and launched another attack on Kogatani Village.
This ti, because they were aware of his existence, Iwagakure specifically dispatched several experts to target him.
To remain hidden, he didn't reveal his full strength and was thus held back.
Because of this, the Konoha ninjas at Kogatani Village stronghold had a very difficult ti in that battle, losing almost one-third of their forces before finally repelling the Iwa ninjas.
In the following ten days, the Iwa ninjas launched several more attacks.
The battle had continued until today. Even though Kaze no Sato had sent two waves of reinforcents, the surviving Konoha ninjas in Kogatani Village were still less than one hundred and fifty.
Moreover, everyone was exhausted.
It could be said that this stronghold was on the brink of collapse. Just one mistake, and it would basically fall apart.
Similarly, the other strongholds near Kaze no Sato were also in a state of imminent collapse.
Despite this, Omura Yuino's strategy, to so extent, could be considered a success. Although it only succeeded partially, but...
The separate deploynt of powerful Jonin like Seii did indeed compensate for so of the shortcomings of the Konoha ninjas' lack of numbers.
Their presence did delay the Iwa ninjas' advance, keeping their attacks stuck at the outer strongholds until now, unable to pose a major threat to Kaze no Sato.
Unfortunately, this stalemate wasn't a good thing for the Konoha ninjas on the lower levels.
No other reason than because of the persistence of Jonin like Seii, the battles at the Chunin and Genin levels were exceptionally fierce, leading to their heavy casualties.
Although this also caused considerable losses to the Iwa ninjas, this continuous exchange wasn't unacceptable for the Iwa ninjas with their larger numbers.
That's why Seii said that Omura Yuino's strategy was only partially successful.
Based on the current information, they might be able to defend these strongholds in the short term, but as ti went on, their fall was only a matter of ti.
And once these outer strongholds fell, the fall of Kaze no Sato, located in the center, would also be a matter of ti.
'I wonder what Omura Yuino and the main camp are thinking?'
Seii pondered, turned around, and walked back to the Kogatani Village stronghold.
Looking at the wounded all over the ground, Seii skillfully transford into a dical ninja and began treating them.
Fortunately, most of the injuries on these people were external injuries caused by ninja tools. With his lv7 Mystical Palm Technique and lv4 Chakra Scalpel, the treatnt was relatively easy.
After spending more than an hour completing the treatnt with several other dical ninjas, Seii instructed a few squad leaders to pay attention to vigilance and then returned to his residence.
Perhaps it was because of the significant increase in strength after awakening the Mangekyo Sharingan.
Or perhaps it was because he already knew the outco of this Ninja World War, and by tracing back from the result, he could easily deduce the final outco of this Kaze no Sato battle.
In any case, facing the Iwa ninjas' attacks now, Seii no longer had much interest.
At this mont, he was like an outsider, simply following the established persona and doing what this persona should do.
As for the rest, such as the deaths of his subordinates, the direction of the war, and so on, he didn't care much about them.
Seii didn't know if he was cold-blooded or sothing, but ever since he awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan and had the power to protect himself, he had always had this ntality.
Seii didn't know if this change was good or bad, nor did he want to think about those complex things.
Now, he just wanted to cultivate, continue to improve his strength, and then do whatever he wanted, doing the things he wanted to do.
Perhaps, this was also a kind of purity!
...
In a flash, another day passed.
After a night of rest, the Iwa ninjas impatiently launched another attack.
And it seed that this ti, they were determined to take them down in one fell swoop.
Standing on a rooftop, Seii looked at the three hundred Iwa ninjas full of vigor in front of him, and then at his own side - less than one hundred and fifty people, all with exhausted expressions.
In this state, Seii felt that if he didn't exert himself this ti, the stronghold might really fall.
And just as he was considering whether to expose so of his strength, four Iwa-nin Jonin rushed out from the troop, heading straight for him.
Seeing these four, Seii's face darkened. In the past ten days or so, he had been disgusted by this kind of "sticky candy" tactic countless tis.
Although he had also taken the opportunity to kill a few of them, it was useless. The Iwa high command seed determined to entangle him. Every ti he killed a few, they would send more.
In short, they wouldn't let him interfere with other battlefields.
This made him very helpless!
Seii took one last look at the determined Konoha ninjas around him and then at the Iwa ninjas rushing towards them from afar. He sighed inwardly, "Alright, I'll let you guys survive this ti!"
Thinking this, Seii exerted a slight force with his feet and used the Body Flicker Technique.
In an instant, his figure disappeared from the rooftop, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of the four Iwa-nin Jonin.
The four Iwa-nin Jonin reacted quickly and imdiately made attacking moves.
But at this mont, Seii's eyes spun rapidly, instantly capturing the four's movents into his vision and predicting their subsequent changes.
Then, he twisted his body, narrowly avoiding the attacks of two of them, and then with a "swoosh," he drew the short sword from his waist.
*Clang* *Clang*
Two crisp sounds of tal clashing rang out. The kunai thrown by the other two Iwa-nin Jonin were also accurately blocked by him.
At this mont, the entire battlefield seed to freeze, and everything in Seii's eyes slowed down countless tis.
In an instant, he raised his free left hand and, at an unprecedented speed, completed the hand seals, using the ninjutsu - Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!
His chest puffed up high, he took a deep breath, and then exhaled forcefully.
