Ye Cang, who had almost been killed by a surprise attack, was filled with anger at this moment.

Although as a ninja, life and death are common occurrences, it would be too frustrating to die so inexplicably.

"Who is it?"

Ye Cang looked angrily at the surrounding forest, but received no response.

The surrounding forest was as silent as if there were no life in it.

Rōsa also stared at his surroundings. Just now, he had sensed a strange energy.

This energy was not chakra, but natural energy like the Dragon Vein chakra.

This was also why he was able to detect the trap in advance.

But now, he can't sense the enemy's presence either.

"Maki! Force these insects out!"

"Yes!"

With Rōsa's order, Maki, who was also full of anger, immediately formed hand seals.

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

A gust of wind burst out directly from Maki's mouth, blowing towards the forest where the kunai had just come from, and the huge wind force directly blew down a large area of ​​trees in front of him.

Just as Maki used Wind Release, Rōsa's senses detected that familiar feeling again. At the same time, both Ye Cang and Yashamaru saw countless figures appearing in the forest as if out of thin air. They didn't look like professional ninjas, their clothes were very simple, and they held kunai in their hands. It seemed that there were forty or fifty people.

Among the entire four-person team, only Rōsa saw how these people appeared because he had sensed it in advance.

"This is?"

Countless purple mists gathered between the branches of the forest, forming human-shaped figures, and then turned into human flesh.

Rōsa could be sure that this was definitely not some kind of illusion, let alone a transformation technique, but a real, flesh body condensed from smoke. He indeed didn't sense chakra fluctuations, but sensed a natural energy like the Dragon Vein chakra.

"Interesting!"

At this moment, Rōsa was really moved.

Because this scene reminded him of the elementalization in the anime "One Piece" that he had watched.

At this moment, seeing the attackers being forced out, Maki seemed to have thought of something and said.

"Lord Kazekage, if I'm not mistaken, these should be ninjas from the Iburi clan?"

Maki's words attracted everyone's attention.

Ye Cang asked with a dissatisfied face.

"Iburi clan, what is that?"

Maki looked coldly at these ninjas, and explained.

"The Iburi clan is a ninja clan within the Land of Fire. They do not belong to Konoha, but are a wandering ninja clan. The Iburi clan has a special ability called: Smoke Transformation Technique, which can turn the body into smoke to achieve silent killing. Even sensory ninjas cannot detect this ability."

"I see!"

Ye Cang also understood why he was almost attacked just now.

Rōsa listened and asked curiously.

"Is it very similar to the Hozuki clan's Water Transformation Technique in Kirigakure?"

"Yes, Lord Kazekage, but there are also differences between the two. The Hozuki clan's Water Transformation Technique is a secret technique, an ability that requires training to master, but the Iburi clan is different. The Iburi clan's Smoke Transformation Technique is an ability that is mastered from birth. Therefore, the Iburi clan cannot control this talent as well as the Hozuki clan, resulting in a large number of Iburi clan ninjas dying. Besides that..."

Maki looked fiercely at the Iburi clan ninjas in the distance with unkind faces and said.

"The Iburi clan's Smoke Transformation Technique, like the Hozuki clan's Water Transformation Technique, has a big weakness, that is, the Iburi clan ninjas in the smoke state are very afraid of Wind Release."

After Maki's words were finished, the faces of the Iburi clan ninjas on the opposite side became even more ugly.

Seeing this, Rōsa already understood something. It seemed that this Iburi clan was somewhat similar to Jūgo's ability. This made him even more interested and he stepped forward a few steps and asked.

"Did Konoha send you to assassinate me?"

"! ! !"

Everyone was shocked, and the Iburi clan ninjas looked even more incredible.

Seeing this scene, Rōsa was already certain.

Because from the current point of view, besides Konoha, who would go to great lengths to assassinate him, other ninja villages simply don't have that strength. He had just negotiated cooperation with Kumogakure and Iwagakure, Kirigakure had no contact, and the only one he had a grudge against was Konoha.

"It seems, it really is! ! !"

Now, the Iburi clan ninjas were even more panicked, and then roared.

"Kill them!"

Instantly, all the Iburi clan ninjas turned into human-shaped purple smoke and flew towards Rōsa and his group.

Maki and Yashamaru were about to take action, but were stopped by Rōsa.

"Leave it to me!"

If it were ordinary ninjas, Rōsa would of course not take the initiative, but Rōsa was really interested in this so-called Iburi clan's Smoke Transformation Technique.

Seeing this, Maki and Yashamaru could only nod.

Rōsa only formed a single hand seal: the Ox seal.

"Magnet Release: Sand Tentacles!"

Fine yellow sand began to fill the air, condensing into one, turning into sand tentacles, binding the closest Iburi clan ninjas one by one.

"Puchi..."

But these Iburi clan ninjas instantly turned into smoke and dissipated, breaking free from the sand tentacles' restraints.

Obviously, they were also afraid of Wind Release, so after breaking free from the restraints, they re-condensed into smoke humanoids, ready to transform back into flesh at any time.

"Interesting!"

"Shu!"

Rōsa's figure instantly disappeared from the spot, and reappeared in mid-air, grabbing towards the air with his right hand.

"Bang!"

An Iburi clan ninja who had turned into a human-shaped smoke was directly choked by Rōsa.

"How... how is it possible..."

This scene stunned the surrounding Iburi clan ninjas.

They had to know that their clan's Smoke Transformation Technique could completely immunize them from physical attacks.

But now...

But the Iburi clan's horror had only just begun...

In mid-air, purple chakra appeared on Rōsa's right hand. The humanoid smoke instantly let out a scream, and then dissipated directly in place as if it was swallowed by the purple chakra.

This scene not only frightened the Iburi clan ninjas, but even Ye Cang and the others were stunned.

They never knew that their Kazekage actually had such abilities.

But Rōsa didn't give them time to explain.

After absorbing this Iburi clan ninja through the [Karma], Rōsa immediately felt a change in his body.

But obviously the chakra was not enough, not enough to completely change his body...

He looked at these Iburi clan ninjas with cold eyes, as if he was not looking at living people, but pieces of food.

Since that's the case...

"Five Sealing Barrier Method..."

As the huge barrier enveloped all the Iburi clan ninjas, the Iburi clan ninjas, understanding Rōsa's purpose, looked at Rōsa with eyes as if they were looking at a demon.

Why?

This was completely different from what they had planned...
