Chapter 499

"Rumble..."

As the Hidden Stone's vanguard troops approached the Waterfall of the Waterfall bit by bit, the dull sound like thunder constantly entered the ears of the Stone ninjas.

The roaring sound produced by a large amount of water falling from a high place made people's eardrums tremble.

A Stone ninja rubbed his ears slowly. In the Land of Earth, where water resources were relatively scarce, such a scene was undoubtedly extremely rare.

"Strange..."

"Why does this sound seem to be getting louder and louder?"

A Stone ninja muttered in his mouth, while raising a hand to cover his ears. He only thought that the sound was constantly amplifying because he was approaching the waterfall.

"RUMBLE!!!!"

But soon, the rumbling sound became more intense, and even the earth began to tremble constantly.

"This is..."

At this time, someone finally discovered something wrong.

"KU KU KU!!!!"

Accompanied by this rumbling sound, a shocking scene happened. The cliff behind the waterfall suddenly split, and a huge, hideous, and terrifying head poked out from the cliff and the waterfall.

This was a huge insect-like monster head with a metallic armor luster. At this moment, it was opening its hideous mouthparts, constantly venting its resentment and anger toward the surroundings.

"ROAR!!"

The monster let out a roar of resentment, and the powerful sound wave directly pierced the eardrums of several Stone ninjas.

The anger full of hatred constantly twisted its mind, and it couldn't wait to destroy this group of tiny humans in front of it to alleviate its boundless resentment.

Pitch-black chakra began to condense in its ugly mouthparts, and the energy full of ominous and destructive meaning emitted a shocking fluctuation.

This was a power that humans could not understand. Yin and Yang attribute chakra were twisted and fused together in a unique way, emitting terrifying power. It had a chilling name in the shinobi world—Tailed Beast Bomb!

In the fearful eyes of the few Stone ninjas in front, this pitch-black energy ball full of destructive power began to gather larger and larger. In just a few seconds, it was already the size of a car.

"SWISH!!!!"

The sound of heavy objects cutting through the air suddenly sounded, and the pitch-black Tailed Beast Bomb was sprayed out by the monster with resentment, flying toward the dense crowd of humans in the distance like ants.

On the other side, relying on keen perception ability, Gari was the first to discover something wrong.

As the Stone ninja vanguard approached, he discovered that an ominous chakra had suddenly appeared behind the waterfall. He was naturally very familiar with this aura.

After all, except for the Tailed Beast, he couldn't think of any other creature that could possess such ominous chakra.

So Gari hurriedly reported this intelligence to Kitsuchi. After listening to Gari's account, a serious expression flashed on Kitsuchi's face.

The Waterfall Ninja Village had always held the Seven-Tails, a matter known to everyone in the shinobi world, so since he chose to move against the Waterfall Ninjas, he naturally had already prepared to deal with the Tailed Beast.

Therefore, the appearance of the Seven-Tails was already in Kitsuchi's expectation. And the appearance of the Seven-Tails also showed that the Waterfall Ninjas had been forced to a dead end.

The vanguard team sent by the Hidden Stone to investigate before the waterfall was just a small vanguard team, so even if the Tailed Beast suddenly appeared at this moment, Kitsuchi did not feel any panic.

"Scatter quickly!"

Immediately, Kitsuchi ordered the Stone ninjas around him using the pre-prepared plan.

The Stone ninjas scattered toward the surroundings quickly, scattering in all directions in a siege posture.

Said to be late, it was fast. With a roar of resentment from the Seven-Tails, its hideous head poked out from the waterfall, and a pitch-black Tailed Beast Bomb was sprayed out by it toward the Stone ninja troops.

"BOOM!!!"

As the Tailed Beast Bomb hit the target, the destructive power constantly vented toward the surroundings, and the terrifying incandescent light wave swallowed everything around it. The light wave produced by the explosion made people unable to open their eyes.

As the shock wave constantly spread, the powerful wind pressure messed up Kitsuchi's hair. He squinted his eyes and looked at this terrifying power, clenching his fists slightly.

No matter how many times he saw it, this power was so surprising.

But immediately following, Kitsuchi's burly body shook violently.

Because he suddenly remembered that man again. The power of the Tailed Beast Bomb was already so terrifying, and how terrifying would that man be who had resisted the Tailed Beast Bomb with his own strength and overturned the Tailed Beast?

Not to mention the complexity in Kitsuchi's heart, under the explosion of the Tailed Beast Bomb, hundreds of Stone ninjas could not avoid dying in it, which was also the largest casualty of the Hidden Stone since fighting the Waterfall Ninjas.

And beside Kitsuchi, Gari had already begun to use his perception ability to command the Stone ninjas to take their places, preparing to launch a siege on the Seven-Tails.

In a mountain hollow a few kilometers away from the Waterfall of the Waterfall.

When the Waterfall Ninja leader saw the wind and waves of the explosion in the distance, a hint of determination flashed on his silent face.

According to the plan proposed by the Waterfall Ninja elder, release the seal of the Seven-Tails and use the Seven-Tails to attract the firepower of the Stone ninjas' attack.

Afterward, the Waterfall Ninja leader led the other Waterfall Ninjas to kill out from the back of the Stone ninjas, which might be able to repel the Hidden Stone in one fell swoop and achieve a comeback.

But if this was done, someone would inevitably have to stand up and sacrifice. Because taking the initiative to release the seal of the Seven-Tails would inevitably be a matter of ten deaths and no life.

He knew that the appearance of the explosion also meant that the pro-war elder had been completely shattered, and also proved that this elder had practiced the oath of guarding the Waterfall Ninjas with his own life.

Perhaps it was the elder's death that stimulated this only quasi-Kage powerhouse of the Waterfall Ninjas, and his inner fighting spirit had never been so strong.

He turned around and looked behind him, only to see that in this mountain hollow, more than two thousand Waterfall Ninjas were gathered silently in the surroundings, their eyes focused tightly on the leader.

"Everyone, below is our home, we have no way to retreat."

"Now is the last moment to fight."

"Everyone, kill out with me!"

The Waterfall Ninja leader spoke slowly, his voice getting louder and louder, until the end there was a bit of roaring meaning.

"KILL!!!"

Hearing the sound, the group of Waterfall Ninjas responded in unison, and all the Waterfall Ninjas' eyes bloomed with a firm fighting spirit.

The Waterfall Ninjas who stayed here basically had their own reasons for not being able to retreat.

After all, those who could run had basically run away after the defeat of the Battle of Waterfall Lake. Those who stayed now were basically ninjas who had families and were deeply rooted in the Waterfall Ninja Village.

They could run, but their wives and daughters could not escape at all.

Just as the Waterfall Ninja leader said, they had no way to retreat, because their home was in the mountain belly under their feet. If they retreated again this time, they would inevitably have their homes broken and their families destroyed.

Under the catalysis of these various reasons, this group of Waterfall Ninjas instead turned into a mourning army, possessing absolute fighting spirit.

Thus, under the leadership of the Waterfall Ninja leader, these more than two thousand Waterfall Ninjas carried a firm fighting spirit and killed toward the back of the Stone ninjas who were besieging the Seven-Tails.

For the Waterfall Ninjas who suddenly killed out from the back, Kitsuchi and Gari were clearly somewhat unexpected.

Although the two were not bad in talent, they were clearly lacking in experience because they were young. The move of the Waterfall Ninja surrender faction elder to take the initiative to surrender yesterday also blinded the judgment of the two to a certain extent.

Making them think that the Waterfall Ninjas had lost their fighting spirit and could be handled easily.

Because they occupied an absolute advantage, Kitsuchi put all his attention on the Seven-Tails, and did not consider the remaining scattered soldiers of the Waterfall Ninjas too much.

But what surprised them was that they didn't expect that after experiencing a big rout, the Waterfall Ninjas could still dispatch more than two thousand ninjas, which was a significant gap from the number Kitsuchi estimated.

Therefore, caught off guard, the Stone ninjas were actually caught off guard by the Waterfall Ninjas who suddenly killed out.
