Naruto: The Wind Calamity Chapter 673: Slaughterhouse (2)

Chapter 673: Slaughterhouse (2)

‘Fuin Battlefield!’

Fujin slammed his hands on the ground as a seal imprint lit up. This seal imprint was special as compared to other seal imprints. Instead of a single seal, the seal imprint contained thousands of other seals!

In less than a second, the seals spread throughout the base! A base that had hundreds of seals, now suddenly had thousands of seals! The only difference was that over 90% of the seals were under Fujin’s control!

In one of the many facilities in the base, a youngster sat awake despite it being late in the night. He let out a yawn and thought, ‘This is so boring. Sensei hyped up this place so much that I was thrilled when I learnt that I’ll be joining here for training. However…’

He let out a tired sigh thinking, ‘All I have to do here is monitor these boring seals for half a day daily! Nothing else happens. I don’t understand what Lord Raikage is thinking. Why do we have to keep such a watch on the base? Who’d even dare to come here to attack us? Wouldn’t it have been better if I spent time studying more seals?’

Even though Kumogakure had only 4 Fuinjutsu Grandmasters, they had plenty of Sealmasters. In terms of number of Sealmasters, they were only below Konoha. They had deployed a couple of Sealmasters to each base to control the seals to ensure that someone always monitored them. It also prepared the Sealmasters for wars as they would have to look over their forward bases.

The youngster was about to sigh again when his eyes widened and he cursed, “What the fuck? What happened? Why does it feel like a large number of seals suddenly appeared out of thin air?”

He quickly began focusing and what he saw shocked him! The walls in his room suddenly had dozens of new seals. He couldn’t even identify some of the seals! In disbelief, he muttered, “What in the hell? How did so many seals appear? No! More importantly, who inscribed these seals? And how? They couldn’t have already been here, could they? Wait!!!

The seals have created a barrier along the ground! It means that no one can escape underground. Do the attackers want to cut our escape routes and eliminate us? But who has the courage to attack Kumogakure?”

He began panicking realizing that everyone in the base might be trapped. He wasn’t the only one. The other Sealmaster in the base also woke up and was scared witless on sensing the seals. A few experienced Jounins woke up as well as they instinctively felt danger.

As for the ones who didn’t wake up? They woke up a second later as they sensed a massive amount of chakra! A second after activating the Fuin Battlefield, Fujin released 40% of his chakra into the air!

The chakra immediately transformed into winds. However, unlike his usual method, a dome wasn’t formed around him. Instead, the winds extended like tentacles toward the Kumo ninjas!

The massive chakra spike woke up everyone in the base. Despite many being deep in sleep, every Kumo ninja got up and was ready for battle in the blink of an eye! It displayed how well-trained and disciplined everyone in the base was. Even Fujin was surprised by such a quick reaction.

He thought, ‘Not bad. Or perhaps I should say, as expected from the elites trained by Kumogakure.’

Even though the Kumo ninjas reacted quickly, they were still confused about what was happening and began discussing among themselves while moving rapidly towards Fujin.

“What was the chakra spike?”

“Are we under attack?”

“Which fool has the courage to attack us?”

“I don’t know, but that chakra is scary. Don’t be overconfident. If anyone dares to attack us, then they must at least have some strength to back up their courage.”

“Such sort of attacks are very common during a war. Stronger ninjas and Elite squads will try to eliminate weaker enemy ninjas.”

“Also, look out for suicide bombers among the enemy. They might blow themselves up if they’re about to die. Always keep your guard up!”

Several such discussions broke out within seconds. The overconfident youngsters were guided by their seniors. However, even they were puzzled as none of them actually expected such an attack. In fact, most veteran ninjas thought that it was likely a surprise training exercise to let the youngsters experience some danger.

Suddenly, in just a few seconds, all the Kumo ninjas stopped running! The reason was the intense winds they were feeling.

“What are these winds?”

“What is happening there?”

“Why is there so much chakra in these winds? Who is wasting so much chakr… Argh!!!”

While he was speaking, a cut appeared across his throat! In the blink of an eye, his neck had been sliced clean, beheading him! Similar scenes appeared throughout the base! Everyone saw a red line appearing on the necks of their comrades before they felt the pain themselves!

In the blink of an eye, over 50 ninjas were slaughtered! The ninjas who were still a bit farther away were horrified by that sight! Had they seen an enemy, the brave Kumogakure ninjas might have rushed towards him despite the danger.

However, they didn’t see any enemy and instead just saw Wind cutting up their comrades! The sight spooked them. Everyone, irrespective of how young or experienced they were, turned around and began escaping.

Some flickered away, some ran, and some tried to grow underground but failed. They chased after their remaining comrades. However, every single one of them was terrified when they discovered a transparent barrier around the base!

“Why is there a barrier here?”

“Shit! Someone wants to kill every one of us. They’re keeping us here so that we are killed by that demonic wind!”

“Fuck! Destroy this fucking barrier!”

Everyone immediately weaved hand seals and bombarded the barrier with several jutsus. However, the barrier stood firm! They looked at it in disbelief and muttered, “Why is the barrier so strong?”

In order to raise their morale, one of the Veteran Jounins shouted, “It doesn’t matter! Attack once again! We’ll attack until the barrier bre…”

Before he could complete his words, he was beheaded! Others looked at him in horror. Some turned around and muttered in fear, “That demonic wind has reached here?”

Luckily for them, they didn’t have to suffer in terror for long. In just a couple of seconds, Fujin beheaded everyone else in the base. In under a minute, Fujin had eliminated 99 Kumo ninjas. At the same time, his clones eliminated the four ninjas who were outside the base in patrol camps.

In all, Kumogakure lost 22 Jounins and 81 Chunins! It was a shocking loss. While it wasn’t as bad as the wound Jiraiya had inflicted, it was just as painful. Even though this was less than 1% of the total number of ninjas in Kumogakure, everyone here could be considered elites.

The higher-ups in Kumo valued every single one of their lives! In particular, Ay was very fond of the ninjas trained in these bases. Unbeknownst to him, he had just lost 103 of his elites while he was hunting for ‘Fujin’ in the Land of Hot Water. The worst part for Kumogakure was that this was just the start!

Using his Space Time Sensing Technique, Fujin observed, ‘Hmm, so everyone is dead. That was a bit disappointing. They couldn’t even see who the attacker was. Oh well, it was as I expected. Fortunately, there are at least some gains.’

Fujin glanced towards the barrier around the base. Even though it stood firm, Fujin could sense that it was badly damaged. A couple more rounds of jutsus would have caused it to crumble.

Fujin analyzed, ‘Even though Fuin Battlefield can create a barrier, this isn’t a normal barrier. Normal barriers use the chakra of their users as the source. Until they can keep supplying chakra, the barrier will stand firm and heal.

However, the barriers inside the Fuin Battlefield are created solely by seals. How sturdy I can make them is limited by the number of seals I inscribe… I guess I’ll have to find a way to inscribe more seals inside the Fuin Battlefield. No, that would be difficult…’

Fujin recalled how much work he had to put into creating the Fuin Battlefield. Dozens of Shadow Clones worked on it for months. He didn’t have the time to repeat that process. In fact, he wasn’t even sure whether that would be possible to do!

Fujin thought, ‘Since that isn’t an option, I’ll have to find a way to make multiple Fuin Battlefield seals work properly with each other. Probably in a similar way to how two Four Symbols Seal create the Eight Trigrams Divination Seal. That would make it far more lethal…

Anyway, it’s time to go after my next target!’

Fujin stopped thinking about the Fuin Battlefield. Though he got ideas to improve it further, its current level was sufficient for him for the time being. He turned his gaze towards the winds flowing inside the base.
