"About the information on the nearby Abyss, I’d like to take a look too, Temor, you don’t mind, do you?"
As Temor began to check the contents sent by the messenger seagull, Tao Yu asked from the side.
"Of course, there’s no problem, Mr. Tao, please follow me. It’s a giant beast that appeared on the seashore,"
Tao Yu thought quickly upon hearing this.
A giant beast in a ninja’s mouth?
That would probably have to be compared to the size of the Tailed Beasts.
And when it comes to creatures of such size, Tao Yu always felt a bit of a headache.
Whether it’s Godzilla or monsters from Ultraman, it’s all about sheer strength overpowering technique.
Under Hozuki Gengetsu’s orders, the Jonin, who had come to learn and discuss, quickly dispersed, gathering their own teams to prepare for departure.
"Yagura, you stay behind to protect the village, the rest of you, come with me."
After leaving Kankitsu Yagura behind, Hozuki Gengetsu, Terumi Mei, and Utakata took the lead and dashed out of the meeting room, swiftly heading towards the dense forest in the north.
Tao Yu swiftly followed behind them, displaying the Phantom Demon Technique, not falling behind the speed of these Kage Level ninjas as they rushed on their way.
He soon caught up with Terumi Mei.
She was still young, a bit thin-skinned. Seeing Tao Yu catch up, she shot him a sideways glance but said nothing else.
In the time they had been learning from each other, she had improved the most in the Shinobi Village, holding two bloodline limits, perfectly suited for the theories Tao Yu brought. Her limits in both Lava and Boil Releases had been raised during this period.
Right on their heels, a second seagull also arrived, seemingly relaying messages from the front. Hozuki Gengetsu, after seeing it, shared the information with the others.
"It’s a beast over fifty meters tall, about the size of a Tailed Beast, with a keratin layer on its body, similar to the skin of a large lizard, with blue blood..."
"Blue blood?"
Tao Yu had been initially shocked to hear ’lizard skin,’ as dealing with Godzilla, outside of the simplest version, was quite problematic, but hearing about the blue blood, he relaxed a bit.
"Yep, the guards have already attempted an initial attack. Jonin with throwing knives and Exploding Tags can deal some damage to it, but it has high resistance to Ninjutsu. Reinforcements nearby have arrived, and though they have provoked the beast, they’ve managed to contain it, currently looking for weaknesses."
Hozuki Gengetsu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief but still promptly headed in that direction.
Tao Yu, too, relaxed considerably, thinking it looked to be just a matter of size. Such a creature was not a concern.
Just like with a single Colossal Titan, without numbers, it wasn’t much of a threat...
But as they traveled for about fifteen minutes, almost arriving at their destination, another seagull appeared.
After Hozuki Gengetsu read the message, his face darkened again.
"What’s the matter?"@@@@
"A new monster has appeared, even bigger, at least seventy meters tall, and it’s humanoid, its body seems to be made of metal!"
The deep, penetrating sound traveled far, and flocks of birds flew chaotically through the forest.
At the same time, there were also faint sounds being broadcast from the mech, also in neon language.
"Tights hot, are you ninjas?"
"Idiots, of course they’re ninjas, look at those shurikens and kunai."
"So strong! Flesh and blood can restrain the monster?"
"It’s unbelievable."
It seemed like two people were controlling the mech, and they were chattering excitedly at this moment.
So they were the neon mechs from the Pacific Rim, not appearing in the movies, no wonder there wasn’t a bit of an impression.
But thanks to this, their communication was fairly smooth, which led to the current collaboration with the ninjas in attacking the monster, and they had obviously gained the upper hand.
As a group of them were about to arrive on the scene, they saw him successfully stuff the barrel of the cannon on his shoulder into a wound of the monster.
Bang bang bang~
The muzzle blasted violently inside the body of the beast.
This result made Tao Yu realize, so that’s why the barrel wasn’t for long-range attacks, no wonder it hadn’t fired while in close combat.
Howl~
The monster let out a final wail, then fell thunderously onto the beachfront, causing a surge of waves, and the ground trembled.
"How is it, any casualties?"
Although Hozuki Gengetsu seemed to be all laughs and jokes, he was undoubtedly a qualified Kage, the first to think about the casualty issue.
At that moment, a ninja wearing a ninja vest, apparently a Jonin from the Hidden Mist Village by the speed, quickly approached Hozuki Gengetsu.
"Reporting to the Second, two Chunin are dead, thirteen injured."
With the size of that monster in sight, it was clear that ninjas with high attack but low defense would be killed on contact.
The injuries were also likely not caused directly by the monster, but more probably by after-effects and some scattered debris.
However, this also indicated that the ninjas had high combat standards.
Those who were veterans of the Third Ninja World War showed a considerable level of tacit coordination.
"Hello, are you ninjas?"
The audio broadcast from the mech sounded again at this moment.
"Yes, we are ninjas. Are you inside this hunk of metal? Would you mind coming out for a bit?"
Hozuki Gengetsu looked solemnly at the colossal mech.
He had witnessed some parts of the fight between the mech and the monster, and with such size, a single punch’s force was far more than a normal ninja could withstand.
But since it seemed rather slow to react, as long as they were not cornered without space to dodge, Chunin probably wouldn’t get hurt by its fists and feet, and overall the threat was much less than that posed by the Tailed Beasts, which allowed Hozuki Gengetsu to breathe a slight sigh of relief...
