Chapter 293

Plus, Bai had already been injured in the earlier battle.

At present, he was no match for Naruto and the others!

Bai glanced at Jiraiya and Kakashi.

He could sense that the threat level posed by these two was no less than that of the blond brat before him.

In fact, that white-haired fellow gave him a sense of extremely lethal danger.

Thinking this, Bai decided to wait for reinforcements.

After all, the message had already been sent; Orochimaru would likely bring others to support him very soon, wouldn't he?

If he could kill a few members of the Akatsuki, surely Lord Ishihara would be very pleased, wouldn't he?

Thus, after a brief standoff with Naruto, Bai immediately created distance.

Bai's hands moved rapidly to form hand seals, and ice spread directly from his body.

He completely encased himself in ice.

This secret technique was a life-saving art, one that Lord Ishihara had taught him.

It allowed him to freeze himself completely, leaving the opponent with no recourse.

It was extremely, extremely difficult for the opponent to break through that outer layer of solid ice.

Even if it were broken, he could still recondense new solid ice!

"Hey, what are you doing! Hey, hey, hey!"

Seeing this, Naruto paused for a moment, and the Nine-Tails cloak on his body immediately vanished.

He looked at the solid ice before him in confusion and shouted loudly.

However, it had no effect whatsoever; the Bai inside simply could not hear what they were saying.

"Rasengan!"

Seeing this, Naruto immediately struck the solid ice with a Rasengan.

Yet even the attack of the Rasengan merely blasted away a few ice shards.

It could not break the solid ice...
