Just as the raised shaft of water and the thousands of sharks in it began to move forward, the three kage bunshins who had been following a little behind dashed across the shallow bottom and contributed to the combined attack, which was made possible solely because the same type of chakra was used, albeit transformed into different elements.
- Raiton: Kangekiha (Lightning Release: Concussion Wave)!
- Raiton: Kangekiha (Lightning Release: Concussion Wave)!
From the touch of the four hands, discharges sparkled across the water, spreading out in all directions and illuminating a huge tsunami in the darkness of the night.
- Suiton: Kuufuku Same no Pakku (Water Release: Pack of Hungry Sharks)! - The last clone put the finishing touches on the combined ninjutsu, the power of which had far surpassed the S-rank.
Now, even if any of the clones survived the first blow of the elemental fusion, they would have to fight off the mob of sharks hidden in the water, as well as their counterparts, outwardly indistinguishable from ordinary meat, but in reality, much more dangerous.
The kage bunshin retreated under the protection of the trees and barrier as quickly as they had appeared, ignoring the dumbfounded cries of those Konoha who could see the result of their actions.
Despite such a crushing attack, which was almost impossible to dodge, it was very doubtful that all three hundred Kumovs would die - jonins are not given the title for the pretty eyes and despite the unfriendly elements, they will not die for nothing, each having certain trump cards, which means that the main battle is still ahead and only the strongest will remain.

As the six cloaked figures sprang from the trees in the distance, Irui was glad to see that they wouldn't have to forge their way out of their position and lose their subordinates to the traps, but his joy was short-lived.
The sensors of Kumo's striking fist braked sharply, gesturing to the extreme danger, but no sooner had they explained what the matter was, than the chakra flashed so strongly ahead that it was felt even by those who had no gift for it at all.
And in the next moment, a huge dark wall soared in front of the fleeing Kumovs, obscuring the light of the stars. To see its upper edge, it was necessary to raise his head, and certainly, there was nothing to even dream of jumping over.
Even though the squad was mostly veterans of the Second World War, even their experience had been neglected in the face of such a large-scale attack, and the fact that the Kumovites were just over two hundred meters away did not diminish the danger.
Rather, the surging mass of seawater, the next moment illuminated from within by lightning discharges, the edge of which could be seen far off to the sides, suggested the inexorability of death.
- Defense ninjutsu! - Tinari shouted a command to his shocked subordinates, recovering from the shock faster than the others.
There was no need to give the order to stop - moving forward, right under attack, was suicide, and even the last idiot would have realized it.
Various elemental ninjutsu released by frightened ninjas flew at the incoming tsunami, water walls rose up, looking just pathetic against the general background, but it was like a pebble against the wall and did not even slow down the colossal in its power ninjutsu. Unfortunately, the main element most of the Kumovians had was raiton, with some suiton users brought in specifically for this operation, except that a cohesive fight back was out of the question.
Irui did his part too, sending a wave of lightning from his sword forward, but when the pointlessness of the activity was obvious, he rushed back, squeezing as much as he could out of his own body.
- Retreat," he shouted, "scatter, try to get out of harm's way!
