Reborn in Naruto As Madara's Grandson

Chapter 136: 132. Damsel In Distress Part-2

A/N:- There is this one guy who daily give a one star review to my book and farm his exp points. I won't stop him since I don't care anymore about rating but I am amused by his dedication.

---------------------------

"Water Release: Air Water Bubble"

Mei makes some hand signs and creates a bubble of air around her.

Haah...

She takes a deep breath to inhale the air.

'This is not good. They have 10 people on their side and we are six people... also they are expert Anbus specializing in team fight and assassin... we are no match for them... I may have recovered my chakra but... the mental exhaustion is still there.'

All of her subordinates make a formation around her to protect her.

"We will protect you with our life, Captain."

Clang... clang...

They block all the projectiles thrown at them.

The Anbu leader signals his team. Anbu members start to make similar hand signs.

'Water Style: Marine Water Battle Formation Jutsu'

They gather a large amount of water and forms a spiraling stream to attack the group from various angles.

Boom... boom...

The water stream assault Mei's team from various angles.

'Water Style: Water Protection Screen'

Mei spits out a large amount of water from her mouth and forms a water screen to block the attack.

A few anbu members make some hand signs and their body turns into water.

'Water Style: Hidden in Water jutsu'

Mei warily looks around to avoid a sneak attack from the anbus as she analyzes their battle strategy.

'This group of Hunter-nins specialize in water battle formations... they start the fight by creating a large water prison to trap the enemy... then they attack their prey by using the chakra and water in the prison.

This way they can conserve their chakra and effectively hunt down their prey... if brute force fails then they opt for assassination by using the 'Hidden in the Water Jutsu'... even an experienced sensor won't be able to sense their location... since the entire water prison is infused with their chakra... unless one possesses ocular powers to see the chakra. Sigh... looks like they came prepared.'

Mei sighs as she completes her analysis.

'I can't use Boil Release to evaporate the water. It will take me quite the time to evaporate the water and also it consumes the remaining oxygen in water... then there is my team who can't bear the high temperature of the boil release.

Lava Release is also a no... It will burn the oxygen much faster and I don't think I have enough chakra to fight against ten anbu level shinobis single handedly. If only... if only... there was an Ice user in my team... he could freeze the water and create an opening in the ice to lead us out.'

Mei closes her eyes and opens them with resolve.

"We won't go down without a fight."

YEAH!!!

The rest of the group shouts as they engage in a losing fight.

--------------------

In a forest near the border,

Ao catches up with the rest of the Anbu squads deployed by Elder Genji. He turns to one of the Anbu and questions him.

"What's the situation, Taki? Fill me in."

"After receiving the intel from Genji-sama, we quickly departed for the Border. If our intel is correct, then a squad of ten hunter-nins is on Miss Mei's trail.

This squad hid in the forest before Miss Mei even arrived at borders. They provided the information on the Kaguya clan members' attack... I won't jump to any conclusion... but it seems like a pre-planned trap." Taki informs Ao.

Clench...

Ao clenches his fist and increases his speed. The rest of the Anbu follows after him.

'Genji-sama took care of me as a child when my parents died before the Second Shinobi War. He trained me and provided me with everything. I can't fail his expectations... I will protect Miss Mei at all cost.'

-------------------

Slash...

One of the hidden Anbu members reappears behind one of Mei's subordinate and slashes his back.

Splatter...

Blood splatters from the ninja's back as the surrounding water turns red from the blood.

Aah...

The ninja screams in pain as he clutches his back. The Anbu member hides again.

Slash...

Another Anbu member appears behind the ninja and slashes his neck to finish him off.

bloop...

The body of the ninja limply falls off as it floats lifelessly in the water.

"We can't be in such a passive situation for long. We have to counterattack." The elder ninja yells and makes some hand signs.

'Water Style: Furious Current Jutsu'

He creates a giant torrent of water in the water prison. The torrent spirals in and pulls the Anbu members inside it.

Fwoosh...

The hidden Anbu members reappear as the Spiralling torrent cancels their jutsu.

'This is the chance'

Mei makes some hand signs and spits out a large amount of water from her mouth.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique"

She manipulates the water into the shape of a dragon and directs it at Anbu members. The dragon rages along the furious torrent and opens its maw wide to bite down on the now visible Anbu members.

Splatter...

Blood spatters in the torrent as it slowly dies down, leaving behind two floating dead bodies of the Anbu.

'Water Style: Spiked Water Whip Jutsu'

Swish... slash...

A water whip appears behind one of Mei's teammate and grabs his neck, leaving a deep gash.

Aah...

The ninja wreathes in pain as he holds his neck. Blood leaks from his neck as his body twitches violently.

Splatter...

A fountain of blood splatter from his neck.

Fwoosh...

The Anbu Captain's water body turns visible as he held a spiked water whip stained with blood in his hand.

"Four more to go!"

He emotionlessly remarks as he stares at Mei's team with a predatory gaze.

Tick...

Mei bites her tongue as she looks at the situation.

'I can't hold back anymore. I have to use boil release to create an opening in this water prison... '

She turns towards her team and signals them to retreat to the edge of the water prison. The remaining three members follow her order.

'Boil Release: Acidic Annihilation Stream'

Mei opens her mouth, releasing an acidic corrosive vapor. The water around starts to boil rapidly as steam rises from it. Mei creates a water bubble to prevent from harming her teammates, but the highly acidic vapors start to blister their skin.

Sizzle... fizzle...

The rest of the Anbu members try to protect themselves by creating water shields around them.

Burble... burble...

The water boils and reaches an extremely high temperature as the amount of Oxygen diminishes in water. The water bubble around her team destabilizes as its shapes start to change.

The Anbu leader makes some more hand signs and creates multiple water bubble barrier around himself. He frowns and looks at Mei.

'What's her plan? At this rate, she will end up killing her subordinates before escaping from us.'

Burble... burble...

The air inside water heats and rises to the top.

Pop...

With a loud noise, it creates an opening at the top and escapes from it.

"This is our chance," Mei yells at her teammates.

"Oh... no!... you don't." The Anbu leader senses their intention.

He quickly makes some hand signs.

'I can't care about some minor burns at this moment. If they successfully escape to the village... then I won't be able to see tomorrow's morning sun.'

Pop... pop... pop...

He quickly dispels the water bubble shields.

Sizzle...

The corrosive vapors sizzle his skin. He ignores the burn and makes some hand signs.

"Water Release: Five Hungry Sharks"

He places his palm together and releases five water sharks towards them.

'It's not enough.'

He clasps his palms together and thrusts them forward, sending a giant water shark towards them.

'Water Release: Water Shark Bomb Jutsu'

He jumps in the stomach of the water shark to protect himself while swimming towards Mei's group.

"We have to hurry. He is catching up to us."

The Anbu leader quickly closes on Mei.

The sharks open their mouth wide to bite down on them.

"This is the end."

Fwish... whish...

A cold breeze blows towards them. The surrounding temperature instantly falls below the freezing point.

Snap... Crackle...

The entire water prison freezes up together with the Anbu leader and his subordinates.

Brrr.... shatter...

The Anbu captain shivers in cold as his body is frozen on the spot. The ice shark around him shatters, exposing him to more freezing cold.

It traps Mei and her group inside a large ice bubble, but they only feel a little cold.

Step... Step...

A young man walks towards them. There is a child following him closely. The young man has blue lines from the bottom of his eyes to the jawline. His hairs have a slight blue tint to them.

He slowly walks towards them and raises his head to look at Mei and her group. He shakes his head and closes his eyes.

"Yare Yare Daze"
