Naruto: The Wind Calamity

After half an hour, Chou and Masuyo suddenly got alert. Hundreds of small needle-like spikes suddenly began forming on the cave walls. Understanding the danger, they both immediately made hand signs.

'Water Sphere Barrier jutsu'

'Water Sphere Barrier jutsu'

Immediately, two layers of water dome barrier surrounded them. The outer layer was formed by Chou while the inner layer was formed by Masuyo. Some water also flowed on the ground inside the dome. Hundreds of rock needles rained on the two barriers.

Many needles managed to pierce through both barriers. Honzo and Shunji stepped in front of Chou and Masuyo and defended with kunais. They managed to deflect most but a few needles still stabbed all of them. However, none were fatal injuries.

Chou and Masuyo desperately poured more chakra into their jutsus. Honzo and Shunji too made hand signs. Honzo slammed his hands on the ground. Four Rock shields appeared around them.

Shunji, on the other hand, released a spark that hit Masuyo's water sphere barrier. Electricity began flowing through it. The electric current slowed down most of the needles that pierced through the first barrier and hit the second barrier, making them harmless.

The four Kiri ninjas were finally relieved for a moment. However, at that very instant, a stone spear silently and quickly rose through the ground under Terumi Honzo. His attention was focused on the needle rain and didn't notice the spear under him. The spear pierced his lower body, pierced through him, and exited through his head!

He yelled in pain, but couldn't move. That startled his three teammates who turned to see him. They were horrified! Their teammate's body was skewered with an earth spear!

Chou immediately yelled, "JUMP and run to the exit!"

Both Masuyo and Shunji jumped along with Chou. Earth spears formed under them as well and began moving towards them rapidly. All 3 kicked at the side of the spear to propel themselves towards the exit.

Chou made a few hand signs, 'Water Prison Jutsu'

A water sphere encased all 3 of them as they left the protection of the double-layered Water Sphere jutsu.

As they left the underground, the water sphere kept getting pelted with rock needles. A few pierced through, but their speed was greatly reduced due to the water. They managed to defend themselves with a kunai as they got out.

When they left the hideout, Fujin, Hoka, and Mieko sensed them. Sensing them rushing out, Fujin made a few hand signs and prepared Vacuum Bullet jutsu while thinking, 'Three people. One has Jounin level chakra. One is chunin level and the last might be an Elite chunin. Jounins are tough to kill, I'll target the Elite Chunin.'

Soon, Sakai Chou led them out of the underground. They appeared around 20 meters from where Renjiro and the rest were standing. As soon as they appeared, Fujin shot a Vacuum Bullet at Masuyo.

Though they were in a lot of peril, Chou's water prison jutsu provided them with a sense of security. So despite expecting an attack as soon as they left, they expected themselves to at least put up a fight.

However, right after leaving the underground, a Vacuum Bullet hit the Water Prison. It pierced into it with extreme ease and hit Masuyo's heart accurately! She fell down dead with her eyes wide in disbelief!

Chou and Shunji were shocked again. First Honzo was killed unexpectedly and now Masuyo. Even worse was the fact that Masuyo was their only sensor. Leaving the Land of Fire safely without her aid would be extremely difficult.

Without giving them any time to grieve, Mieko, Hoka, and the other 3 chunins moved to attack them. Chou immediately spat out a lot of water, forming a water wall between them. The Water Wall stopped them.

They were about to move around the wall, when Chou yelled loudly, "STOP. We surrender. We don't want to fight against Konoha!"

Hearing that, the 5 of them stopped. The Water Wall soon collapsed into the water. Before Renjiro could say anything, Chou spoke, "We were hunted by our Mizukage despite not committing any crime. While escaping, we accidentally entered the Land of Fire. We have no intention of fighting against you."

Renjiro knew about the situation in the Land of Water. He nodded and asked, "Alright. But why didn't you surrender earlier?"

Chou answered, "We were afraid of being accused of being from the same group as the ones who were attacking us."

Renjiro thought for a bit and said, "Okay. Turn around and raise your arms in the air. We will be arresting you for trespassing into the Land of Fire. If you're innocent, then Lord Hokage will meet you and make further decisions."

Chou felt a bit odd by that command. This was her first time hearing something like this.

Chou and Shunji turned around and raised their arms. As soon as they did it, Renjiro made a hand sign and slammed his hands on the ground.

However, even before he slammed his hands, Chou grabbed Shunji and jumped. Immediately thick earth spears appeared below them. Fujin, Hoka, and Mieko smirked.

Fujin immediately fired another Vacuum bullet at Shunji while he was in the air. Mieko threw a few shurikens on both while Hoka attacked Chou with Vacuum Palm.

Chou's main attention was on Renjiro and Fujin. As soon as Fujin shot the Vacuum Bullet, she pulled Shunji out of the way. However, the vacuum bullet was very fast. It sliced through the side of his abdomen and left a deep cut.

While pulling Shunji, she herself got pulled towards him. This ensured that the Vacuum palm didn't hit her heart. However, it still hit her right lung. She coughed blood while blocking Mieko's shurikens.

On landing on the ground, she looked viciously at Renjiro and yelled, "Renjiro you bastard! Why did you attack us?"

Renjiro snorted and replied, "Good job hiding your killing intent. Unfortunately, I can see your desire to kill us in your eyes."

Renjiro suddenly became angry and shouted, "DO YOU THINK YOU CAN FOOL ME?"

As he shouted, he unleashed his killing intent. Shunji flinched on feeling it! Of course, Renjiro's anger was fake. He only talked so as to provide his students with enough time to prepare for another round of attack.

None of his 3 students missed it. Fujin made hand signs for Air Bullet jutsu and flickered towards Chou and Shunji. Hoka and Mieko too flickered.

Fujin suddenly appeared to their left and shot 5 Air Bullets at Shunji and 2 at Chou. At such a close range, Chou couldn't perform ninjutsu in time to defend. While Shunji was still affected by Renjiro's killing intent.

Chou immediately moved backwards and dragged Shunji with her. She dodged both bullets, but Shunji couldn't dodge 2 of them. One of them pierced his left thigh and the other pierced his right lung.

Not giving them any opportunity to catch their breaths, Hoka appeared behind Chou and took his stance.

'Eight Trigrams : 16 Palms'

He attacked her. At the same time, Mieko flickered in front of them and threw multiple shurikens at Shunji in close range. The other three chunins realized that they were being slow and came forward to attack too.

Chou looked at Hoka with a grim face. He had already managed to hit her once. If he did again, then she would become an easy kill for Renjiro.

She diverted all her attention to him and blocked his palms, not allowing even one to hit her.

However, Shunji, who was injured, couldn't resist much. He got hit by multiple shurikens.

After blocking Hoka, Chou pushed him behind and looked at Shunji. Unfortunately, what she saw didn't bring her any comfort. 5 shurikens were embedded in his body.

Worse, Fujin was just next to him and swinging his sword at his neck. Chou's expression became fierce. She decided, 'You want to kill him? Alright, kill him. But I will skin all three of you!'

She made a hand sign. Hoka and Mieko were about to press on their attack when they saw Fujin's chakra flowing through his sword. They immediately moved backwards.

The three chunins who were running towards them stopped on seeing them retreat. Chou also noticed it. But like the 3 chunins, she assumed that they were retreating due to her preparing a jutsu.

With just one target in front of her, Chou blew hot corrosive steam at both Fujin and Shunji.

'Boil Release : Solid Fog Jutsu'

At the same time, Fujin's sword reached Shunji's neck and cut off his head. Chou watched with anger in her eyes. She wanted Fujin to scream in pain from that jutsu.

However, her eyes widened. After Fujin cut Shunji's head, a flying sword slash formed in the air and rushed towards her. The flying slash was accompanied by winds that dispersed the steam. Chou recognized that it looked like the way Samurais attacked.

She immediately jumped. However, the distance between them was too small. The slash hit her legs slightly above her knees. Both her legs were severed! The winds around the slash created cuts all over her thighs and abdomen!

Chou watched her severed legs with wide eyes! She couldn't believe how easily she got defeated!
