Jindai formed hand seals and unleashed Magnet Release: Sand Iron Tsunami.
Hakuto Ju saw the Sand Iron surge towards him like a tidal wave and was instantly shocked. He wanted to dodge, but Kannazuki's attacks were incredibly fast and sharp, leaving him no time to evade immediately.
After performing the Ninjutsu, Jindai continued to attach Chakra threads to Kannazuki, manually controlling Kannazuki.
Seeing the Sand Iron wave close in, Hakuto Ju, under Kannazuki's relentless attacks, seized an opportunity to block with a Kunai, then quickly formed two simple hand seals.
Hakuto Ju was then suddenly enveloped in a cloud of smoke.
When the smoke cleared, only a tree stump remained in his place.
Jindai's eyes widened: "Oh my god! I actually forgot about the divine Substitution Technique!"
The Sand Iron directly engulfed the tree stump.
Jindai stood atop the Sand Iron.
At the same time, Jindai felt the added weight on his special Sand Iron disappear.
So Jindai re-manipulated his special Sand Iron, compressing it at high density to form wings on his shoulders, and floated in the air.
With Hakuto Ju nowhere in sight, Jindai cautiously surveyed his surroundings.
As long as he was in the air, it wouldn't be easy for Hakuto Ju to ambush him.
Moreover, he had already fallen for it once; it was impossible to trick him again.
Because Jindai also controlled some ordinary Sand Iron to orbit around his body.
If Hakuto Ju still wanted to use Earth Release: Added-Weight Rock Technique to make his Sand Iron heavier, then he could do so; those ordinary Sand Iron didn't matter anyway, and there was still a pile of Sand Iron on the ground.
Jindai waited and waited, but Hakuto Ju still did not appear.
Jindai frowned deeply. Had Hakuto Ju escaped?
That couldn't be, his four other companions were still fighting.
Jindai glanced at Kakashi and Obito's battle.
Kakashi truly lived up to his genius reputation. Although the two Stone Ninja he was fighting were also Chunin and older than Kakashi, Kakashi, relying on his excellent speed and reaction ability, was now relentlessly pressuring the two Stone Ninja.
One Stone Ninja's left arm hung limply, blood constantly dripping. If not for the assistance of the other Stone Ninja, Kakashi might have already killed him.
It seemed only a matter of time before Kakashi dealt with these two Stone Ninja.
On the other side, Obito.
Uh...
It's better not to mention it. Obito was chased from beginning to end. Although he wasn't injured, he was extremely dishevelled and messy. However, it seemed Obito could still hold on.
Now that the strongest among them, Hakuto Ju, was targeting him, Kakashi and Obito's pressure had significantly decreased.
Once Kakashi dealt with those two Stone Ninja, he could then help Obito deal with the two Stone Ninja chasing him.
But where did this Hakuto Ju go?
With him hiding like this, Jindai was at a loss.
If only there was a sensory Ninja, then with one perception, he would know where the opponent was hiding, making it much easier, instead of being completely blind.
Seeing Obito constantly running, Jindai clicked his tongue: "Obito, that idiot."
He remembered Obito had explosive tags in his Ninja tool pouch.
Couldn't he throw two explosive tags while running?
He was really just running all the time, it was too embarrassing.
Just as Jindai was vigilant against Hakuto Ju's ambush while watching the fleeing Obito, Jindai's expression suddenly hardened.
Because he saw the ground trembling not far from Obito's side, and Jindai's face suddenly changed.
He knew this Ninjutsu. Earlier, in the Land of Rivers, when Minato Namikaze, along with Kakashi and his two other companions, intercepted him from the Sand Ninja and Stone Ninja, he had seen a Stone Ninja use this Ninjutsu.
Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish!
It allows the user to turn solid sand and rock underground into a fluid using Chakra, enabling them to move rapidly through the underground soil.
Now, all four Stone Ninja were on the field, so it was clear who was underground!
It was Hakuto Ju!
Jindai's analysis was correct; it was indeed Hakuto Ju underground.
Because Jindai was suspended in mid-air again, and the ground was covered in Sand Iron, and having ambushed Jindai before, Jindai would definitely be on guard against him, making another successful ambush difficult.
Since that was the case, he had to find an opportunity to divert Jindai's attention and create a chance to attack Jindai.
So Hakuto Ju thought of using Kakashi or Obito.
However, Kakashi was very fast, and the Stone Ninja's speed was not their strong suit, so Hakuto Ju wasn't confident in successfully ambushing Kakashi.
As for Obito, he seemed foolish, not even retaliating, only running.
Compared to Kakashi, the success rate of ambushing Obito was much higher.
Jindai roared at Obito: "Obito! Run towards me! Don't worry about anything else!"
Obito heard Jindai's roar and, without thinking, ran towards Jindai.
Jindai immediately manipulated Kannazuki. Kannazuki's left arm began to deform rapidly, and the missile loaded within it was half exposed.
The missile was directly fired at Hakuto Ju, who was attacking Obito from underground.
This missile was an inferior missile that Jindai had made using materials Jiraiya gave him.
Its power was far inferior to the original missile's power.
However, it was enough to get Obito out of trouble.
The missile exploded behind Obito, and the resulting blast wave sent Obito flying.
Obito crashed into a tree and fell to the ground, wincing in pain.
Obito didn't understand why Jindai told him to run towards him and then caused such a big explosion behind him.
He only knew now that his body hurt so much it felt like it was falling apart.
Jindai controlled Kannazuki and directly grabbed Obito.
The spot where Obito had just been lying, the next second, many earth spikes emerged.
Obito was almost impaled.
Obito was now also terrified, his face pale with fear. Just as he was about to speak to thank Jindai, he saw someone suddenly dart out from the smoke behind Jindai.
The person who darted out was Hakuto Ju, who had been waiting for an opportunity.
And now, was the opportunity.
Because Jindai's attention was entirely on Obito, both his hands were controlling Kannazuki, and his back was to him, so he had no time to form hand seals.
"Brat! Die!"
"Earth Release: Added-Weight Rock Technique!"
Hakuto Ju once again added weight to his fist and punched Jindai.
Jindai's hair stood on end. The distance was too close; there was no time to dodge.
Jindai could only use the Sand Iron wings behind him to protect his back.
Hakuto Ju landed an extremely heavy punch on Jindai's back.
Jindai was directly blasted into the ground.
Because Kannazuki lost Jindai's control, it couldn't hold Obito and fell to the ground.
Obito stared blankly at Jindai, who had been blasted into the ground, his eyes wide, his pupils dilated to twice their size due to the extreme shock.
Obito's black eyes gradually turned red, and two tomoe appeared.
Witnessing Jindai being blasted into the ground to save him, Obito directly awakened and activated his two-tomoe Sharingan.
