Jiraiya and Namikaze Minato followed Aomi's instructions, quickly directing the Konoha Ninja to retreat, abandoning the defensive fortifications that took a long time to build.
When they returned, they saw Aomi had already taken command.
"First, third, and fourth bombardment units, drop clay bombs sequentially at the following impact points, supporting personnel to cover the retreat."
Aomi stood on the lookout tower, synchronizing the battlefield situation he saw with the pilots, guiding them precisely.
Combining Genjutsu True Life and Yamanaka Perception Technique, the bombardment units were equivalent to having an extremely high-performance radar, capable of capturing enemy movements in real-time.
Boom!
Boom!
After Aomi finished speaking, seconds later, in the war zones entangled with enemies unable to disengage smoothly, clay bombs dropped accurately from the sky, instantly blasting piles of Hidden Rock Ninja!
Unlike the Hidden Mist Battlefield.
Due to Onoki and the presence of two Jinchuriki, although the Hidden Rock Village specialized in Earth Release, they were not lacking in anti-air ninjutsu...
Low-altitude flight was not an option, and the high-altitude bombing technique was employed, greatly enhancing concealment.
The downside was the lack of follow-up cut from winged flight units, but it was not a big issue…
Because today, the mass destruction weapon Tobirama No.2 from Tsunade and the Kinjutsu from the Aburame Clan will blossom on this battlefield, with no shortage of firepower.
"Is this the bombardment unit guided by the combination of perception ninjutsu and genjutsu that Mountain Fuu mentioned?"
Namikaze Minato was shocked watching this scene, as he was just fretting over how to cover his companions caught in a bind...
From his perspective, Namikaze Minato saw Aomi seemingly glance before issuing commands, and then bombs precisely burst from the sky at incredible accuracy!
This was simply incomprehensible…
Such a method of calling for support just felt off, really like a ninja?
If Konoha survives this wave, when countering other Hidden Villages in the future, they could simply fly to their villages for sneak attacks!
Jiraiya, bewildered, looked at Aomi, scratching his head and muttering: "So that's how Root support is used? How does Aomi do it, this clearly looks like Explosion Release creation…"
"Does Konoha have Explosion Release Kekkeigenkai now?"
"Such a degree of Kekkeigenkai, Root can mass-produce." Aomi glanced at Jiraiya, slowly stating:
"Now is not the time to be surprised by these little things, remember, after holding Onoki, retreat at my signal immediately, got it?"
"Otherwise, even you two will be in danger."
Namikaze Minato and Jiraiya nodded solemnly, indicating they understood.
Having seen the intensity of ordinary bombardment support, this pair of master and disciple were looking forward to the bomb named "Tobirama," with an underlying fear…
Just what magnitude does it have?
On the Hidden Rock Ninja side, the sudden clay bombs had already caused chaos among them.
The bombs hurled down from high altitude caught these unsuspecting Hidden Rock Ninja off guard.
"Damn it, there's an enemy attack!"
"Where are the enemies coming from? We need support!"
Hidden Rock Ninja became disordered, and among them, the demolition team members were shocked and recognized what these clay bombs were!
This was precisely the project underway at the Hidden Rock Village, combining Explosion Release with clay to create bombs stronger than explosive tags...
And the aerial bombardment made them begin to doubt—
Could it be, Konoha has mastered the secret technique that no one in the Hidden Rock Village had mastered, using Yang Release to shape and fix clay bombs, for enemy assault?
How did they achieve mass production?
Where are there so many ninjas proficient in Yang Release and also adept in Explosion Release? Even the Hidden Rock Village doesn't have that many!
But in Konoha, with mass transplantation of Explosion Release via Chimera Jutsu, each Akimichi who mastered Yang Release Expansion Jutsu became skilled clay bomb production technicians, working tirelessly around the clock.
Although these Explosion Release Akimichi couldn't expertly use Kekkeigenkai against enemies, manufacturing fixed ninja tools in factory workshops was merely a process of skill by experience for them.
"Pay attention to air defense, those damn Konoha Ninja have stolen our Kekkeigenkai!"
Onoki shouted, as the second wave of bombing was imminent, he boldly took action, raising sturdy earth walls that rose and covered the heads of Hidden Rock Ninja.
After reacting, Hidden Rock Ninja quickly engaged in air defense measures using Earth Release.
"From what height were these thrown from, and how were these explosion release bombs manufactured?"
Floating in mid-air, Onoki's inner rage and shock mixed, looking up only to see some indistinct black dots...
Evidently, the Konoha units initiating bombing were flying even higher than him!
Looking down at the battlefield, Onoki's face contorted in pain.
Although timely countermeasures were made, and Onoki cautiously adopted a dispersed formation, Konoha's bombs each seemed to have positioning functions, landing precisely in the most suitable place.
Just this wave of bombing, Hidden Rock Ninja suffered nearly a thousand initial casualties!
Onoki's heart was bleeding, Hidden Rock hadn't even killed that many Konoha Ninja yet!
"Those Konoha bastards, first researching Explosion Release Mines, now creating explosion release bombs, this insults me the Tsuchikage!"
In Onoki's eyes flashed fury, but inside calmly analyzing:
"Despite heavy losses, the clay bombs inversely pose the smallest threat to our Hidden Rock offense, we're skilled in earth release with everyone possessing air defense abilities…"
Onoki surveyed the Konoha Ninja's tidal retreat, eyes filled with killing intent:
"All units listen, let Roshi and Han pave the path, each hundred-man team forms ten-man anti-air groups, continue forward!"
"Don't worry, I'll cover you, my Dust Release will destroy any enemies trying to attack Hidden Rock!"
Under Onoki's loud rallying cry, Hidden Rock Ninja's morale restored.
Retreat?
Absolutely impossible!
If Konoha Ninja had enough reserves, why resort to it only at this critical moment?
Aerial bombing is indeed formidable but scaring away someone who's faced Uchiha Madara, overestimating the Tsuchikage!
Hidden Rock troops advanced steadily, and clay bombs never fell again.
Onoki held Dust Release in hand, cautiously watching high altitude, while smirking—
Indeed, Konoha was just bluffing!
At this moment.
Roshi leading the charge, eyed the small hill ahead intending to race over it in one breath…
The Konoha troops were nowhere visible, yet a stranger stood there, smiling at him.
It was Aomi!
Roshi squinted, his speed without slightest reduction, charging straight at Aomi…
Behind him, lava scorched the ground making his momentum even more impressive.
Protected by Lava Release Chakra Mode, he was the invincible one, impervious to blades and spears!
A solitary quirky Konoha Ninja dared to come play empty city strategy against him?
"Lava Release Ninja…"
Aomi glanced at Roshi's lava-covered body, his hand gathering Dust Release's unique glow, softly said: "How does it compare with Dust Release?"
