Go to Naruto World as a Earth Shadow

Chapter 128 The first round of confrontation
The landforms of the Land of Fire are completely different from those of the other four major kingdoms. It should be said that the landforms of the five major kingdoms are all different.

The Land of Winds is full of deserts, and the Land of Earth is better than the Land of Winds. Large areas of land are barely suitable for farming.Yichen has never been to the Land of Thunder and the Land of Water, but the conditions should be similar to those of the Land of Earth.

Only the Land of Fire has exceptionally fertile land, and the most inaccessible places are covered by forests.In places where people are active, large tracts of land are reclaimed for cultivation, and their output is far from comparable to that of the other four countries.

Based on this, although the military strength of the Fire Nation cannot be compared with four against one, its economic strength far exceeds the sum of the other four nations.

It is precisely because of this that the annual funding allocated to Konoha by the Fire Country far exceeds that of the other four countries.

And Konoha also relies on this economic advantage to far surpass other countries in various fields.

Like medical ninjutsu.The research and development of medical ninjutsu cannot be explained by the fact that Tsunade is talented.The research funds spent in it are enough to make the movie capitals of the other four countries feel distressed.

In addition to medical ninjutsu, Konoha also has a variety of forbidden techniques, and none of the research on these forbidden techniques is simple.

Yichen has personally experienced this aspect. Before, Yichen spent a lot of money in the enchantment class when he was experimenting with the fragments of the fire domain.This is the cost of Yichen's experiment alone.

Later, after the entire enchantment class received the full support of the village, it continued to conduct various researches for about ten years.The cost is huge. Although Yichen doesn't know the specific data, he also knows that it must be an astronomical figure.

It is precisely because Yichen made the village fully support the enchantment class that Yichen can get many resources in the enchantment class that others cannot get.This also brought a lot of convenience to Yichen's path of practice.

In Yanren Village, there is only one research on the fragments of the fire domain, which can barely support it.However, Konoha developed countless forbidden techniques during the second generation of Hokage. During the third generation, many human experiments were carried out represented by Danzo Orochimaru.

Especially for the research on the culture of cells between columns, the funds spent in it are estimated to be enough to support Konoha to fight another Ninja World War.

My thoughts flew a little far, and when I came back to my eyes, the natural conditions of the Kingdom of Fire far surpassed that of the other four major kingdoms, and there were lush trees everywhere.

In such a terrain, as an elite Jonin, it is very easy to sneak in silently.Not to mention that Yichen can also perceive ninjutsu and camouflage technique, two auxiliary ninjutsu.

All the way was unimpeded, Yichen crossed the country of Taki and entered the country of fire, and soon arrived near the Konoha camp.

After arriving near the camp, it is unrealistic to sneak in silently like before.

Simply, Yichen had no intention of sneaking into the Konoha camp, it was courting death.

Yichen's approach was very straightforward. From the north of the camp, he approached a patrolling Konoha Nakashino squad, and with a teleportation technique, he approached the three of them.Then, relying on the physical advantage of the elite Jonin, before the captain of the opposing Chunin could react, he hit the opponent's abdomen with a straight punch.

The Zhongnin didn't realize that someone was attacking him until he was punched by Yichen.And his three ninja subordinates shouted enemy attack belatedly after he fell to the ground.

After Yichen punched, he didn't move any more, but quietly watched the three ninjas rushing to their Zhongnin captain in a hurry.

The three of them first checked the captain's injury, and then they reacted, and formed a battle formation to guard against Yichen.

Yichen didn't move, and waited until the opponent's Chunin recovered from his punch, and then said: "I am Yichen, the deputy commander of Iwanin's Eastern Front Army, go and send a message to Namikaze Minato, I want Challenge him."

Hearing that this Iwanin was going to challenge the Minato-sama he admired, the three Genin who were also of commoner background seemed very angry, and they would start fighting if they disagreed.

It's just that unlike the anger of the three subordinates, the Chunin has already realized the gap in strength between the two sides. After hearing Yichen's self-report, he understands that he is only worthy of being a small role to spread the word.

So the Chunin said very wittily: "Please wait a moment, senior, we will go back and report to Minato-sama."

After speaking, he glared fiercely at the three subordinates who were glaring at Yichen, and then turned around and ran towards the camp.

Looking at this scene, Yichen didn't mean to be a joke. If he hadn't been gifted in mental power, he would probably be one of many similar ninjas now.

After the patrolling ninjas left, Yichen chose a relatively open place nearby. He is a long-distance ninja, and the terrain is too complicated for him.

When the Chunin returned to the camp with Yichen's message, Minato Namikaze was discussing some matters in the country of Taki with two middle-aged ninjas.

Hearing that the patrolling ninja was in a hurry, and that the visitor was injured, several high-level officials called him in without any delay.

After the Chunin finished his report, the three of Minato were a little surprised. Fire and Earth have not yet officially declared war. Theoretically, the two sides are still at peace, but everyone knows that a war is inevitable.

In this case, it is intriguing for Yichen to come here alone.

An elite Jonin who wrapped his whole body in a windbreaker said: "Although the talent of this Yichen practice is not clear, the strategy aspect should not be underestimated."

"Senior Yume Shimi is right. Teacher Jiraiya also said before that this Yichen's status in Iwanin Village may be higher than we imagined."

Namikaze Minato affirmed Yume Shimi's opinion. Obviously, after becoming the commander of this unit, Namikaze Minato had learned about Yichen's information.

"Mr. Jiraiya once inquired about the information. What happened in the country of Uzumaki back then was that Iwanin was guiding all parties behind the scenes. It seems that Iwanin's high-level executives were influenced by this Yichen, so they made the plan against Konoha."

"What? When the Uzumaki incident happened, this Yichen should have just entered the ninja school." Another elite jonin was obviously taken aback by Namikaze Minato's words.

"Senior Qiu Dao Ding Ming, Teacher Ji Lai Ye can't confirm this matter, he just deduced it from some clues."

Namikaze Minato explained impatiently.

This news is still quite shocking. The three ninjas almost died in battle in the Uzumaki country incident. At that time, this incident shocked the entire ninja world.Unexpectedly, the instigator of such a major event was just a student of the ninja school.

Although Namikaze Minato said that this is just Jiraiya's guess, the guess of Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, is basically the truth in Konoha Ninja's heart.

Qiu Dao and Ding Ming hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Now that Yichen is challenging you, will you still go?"

Namikaze Minato said with a smile: "Of course I want to go. Now that Fire and Earth are not at war, I have to fight and defeat him, so that Earth will know the strength of Konoha Ninja, so I don't dare to act rashly."

When Namikaze Minato spoke, his eyes shone with confidence.

About half an hour later, Yichen, who was waiting quietly, opened his eyes. In his perception, there were about a dozen people approaching quickly.

Sure enough, after a while, Namikaze Minato brought a dozen elites including Amoyue Shimi to Yichen.The group stopped about [-] meters away from Yichen.

Namikaze Minato originally wanted to come here alone, but Yume Shimi and Akimichi Dingming were worried about Yi Chen, so they still sent a dozen jounin to accompany Namikaze Minato.

Yichen didn't pay attention to these people, after Namikaze Minato stopped, there was no other people in Yichen's eyes.

Unlike Yichen staring at Namikaze Minato, Namikaze Minato just looked at Yichen and said: "Iwanin Elite Jōnin Yichen, we don't seem to know each other, why do you want me to fight?"

Yichen didn't intend to talk nonsense, talking is not what he is good at: "We'll talk after we fight."

While speaking, Yichen has already started to seal.

Namikaze Minato's eyes were fixed, and while shouting "back" to make the entourage retreat, he had already used the blinking technique.

"Water escape--the jutsu of drizzle (group waterline jutsu)." Facing Namikaze Minato's first ninjutsu, Yichen chose the less lethal drizzle jutsu.

There are only 5 seals of B-level ninjutsu, and it only takes one second for Yichen to perform.Moreover, Yichen can use hundreds of waterlines at the same time. Under Yichen's control, hundreds of waterlines are divided into several waves, and each wave can cover a 120-degree range in front of Yichen.

Every time Namikaze Minato flashes with the instant body technique, Yichen will shoot a wave of water at him.

Namikaze Minato can perform ninjutsu in Muji. Although Yichen's drizzle technique is not Muji, but Yichen cooperates with his own Muji Instant Body to control the distance between the two within a certain range. Namikaze Minato thinks The attempt to bring the two of them closer in an instant did not materialize.

The Konoha ninjas watching were taken aback, and one of them said: "This Yichen's speed of making seals is so fast, it should exceed 5 seals per second."

As an elite jonin, Zhimi, the oil girl, sees it most clearly, and said succinctly: "About 5.5 seals per second."

Waterline ninjutsu is Yichen's best ninjutsu. When Yichen performs this kind of ninjutsu, his seal speed reaches nearly 5.7 seals per second.

These Konoha ninjas have basically never seen an opponent with such a terrifying seal speed, and they were directly shocked by Yichen's move.

Another Jonin said at this time: "This Yichen is not only fast in making seals, but also uses the instant body technique very smoothly. It seems that he can at least make Wuyin five times."

"Yeah, with this terrifying speed of seal formation, coupled with Muji's instant body, I'm afraid I won't be able to approach him at all, and I will only be sieved by his ninjutsu."

"After all, he is a ninja who dares to challenge Minato-sama. It is not surprising to have such strength."

At this time, a jounin paid attention to the place hit by Yichen Shuixian, and said slowly: "Fortunately, the attack range of this group of ninjutsu is not very strong."

After hearing the words, everyone also looked at the trees and ground that had been punched by the water pressure line, and they were also relieved.

If this kind of power hits a ninja, it will certainly hurt him, but as long as he avoids the vital points, he can still bear it.If this ninja wears some good-quality protective gear, he may be able to charge forward against the attack.

At this time, the form of the battlefield has changed. This is the Land of Fire, surrounded by dense trees. Although Yichen has chosen a relatively open place as the battlefield as much as possible, there are still many obstacles.

Yichen's waterline is not very powerful, so these trees are enough to provide cover for Namikaze Minato.

After several times of rushing forward with the help of the cover of trees, Minato finally narrowed the distance between the two.

But all of this was within Yichen's expectation, Yichen never thought of defeating Minato with a drizzle technique.

So when Namikaze Minato approached Yichen again under the cover of trees, Yichen decisively changed the seal.

"Water escape - the art of rapid rain (the art of group water pressure line)."

Yichen's original intention was to use the powerful penetrating ability of the water pressure line in the technique of rapid rain to catch Naofeng Minato by surprise.

But Namikaze Minato is Namikaze Minato after all, and Yichen's Rapid Rain Technique only has 2 more seals, which is less than 0.2 seconds in terms of time, but Namikaze Minato still noticed something wrong immediately.

After noticing the abnormality, Namikaze Minato didn't approach again, but decisively dodged to one side with the blink technique.

Although Yichen's water pressure line was fast, Namikaze Minato managed to dodge the attack before it approached.

However, the distance between the two returned to the original [-] meters or so because of Namikaze Minato's retreat.

This time the two tacitly did not act immediately, but had a brief confrontation.

The first round of confrontation came to an end, and it seemed to be evenly divided, but Yichen knew that he was at a disadvantage.

Yichen uses B-level ninjutsu, and Namikaze Minato uses C-level instant body jutsu, and the consumption of the two is inconsistent.

Furthermore, Yichen's biggest advantage is the speed of printing, which has been thoroughly reflected in the process of the two of them just now.

But Namikaze Minato only used a simple blink technique from the beginning to the end.
