No way......
Boom!
A puff of white smoke rose, and a human puppet appeared in the sight of Qifeng and the others.
Dark skin, a brown raincoat, a puppet structure with sharp edges, and black gravel surrounding it, with more and more of it.
Seeing this scene, Putian's eyes almost popped out, "Third...Third Kazekage?"
This symbol is too obvious. The Magnet Release Kekkei Genkai is only possessed by the Third Kazekage and Rasa, who is currently the most popular candidate for the Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure.
However, Rasa's Magnet Release mainly targets gold dust, while only the Third Kazekage's Magnet Release likes to use iron sand.
Qifeng was even more speechless.
He felt like he was cursed.
Previously, he encountered Kakuzu during a single puppet outing. This time, a seemingly ordinary garrison mission actually encountered Sasori of the Red Sand.
Moreover, it was Sasori of the Red Sand who had already successfully turned the Third Kazekage's corpse into a puppet.
As of now, it is impossible to judge Sasori's strength. Qifeng estimates that he should be above the elite Jonin. With a Third Kazekage puppet that can be perfectly controlled, he definitely has Kage-level strength.
Sasori looked at the Third Kazekage puppet floating in the air, revealing an intoxicated expression, as if he was admiring a top-notch work of art.
"To be able to die on my most satisfying work of art is your honor!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the iron sand floating beside the Third Kazekage's puppet body suddenly gathered, turning into fine needles with a cold gleam.
Like raindrops, they shot towards the area where Qifeng and the others were, covering such a large area that it was impossible to dodge.
Qifeng and the others retreated rapidly. Putian and another ninja held kunai, constantly knocking away the iron sand needles that were shot at them.
Qifeng quickly formed hand seals.
He slammed his palms on the ground, "Earth Release! Earth Barrier Return!"
Rumble!
A square earth wall rose from the ground, and the three of them quickly hid behind the earth wall.
Tap tap tap——
The iron sand needles densely hit the earth wall, and it looked like the solid earth wall was about to shatter under the continuous attack.
Qifeng's expression was solemn.
Facing Sasori of the Red Sand, he didn't even have the confidence to escape. If necessary, he might have to abandon this puppet.
"Did you notify the sentry post?" Qifeng asked in a deep voice.
"I notified them, but given the current situation, I'm afraid even if Shikaku and the other two come, they might not be his match," Putian said with a bitter face.
No one could have imagined that they would encounter Sasori of the Red Sand here.
However, his judgment was correct.
Even if Nara Shikaku and the other two came, it was not certain whether they would be a match for Sasori of the Red Sand.
In his opinion, it was likely that they would not be a match.
It was possible that it would add three very efficient puppets to Sasori's collection.
"This can't go on!"
Feeling the precarious earth wall.
The only thing to be thankful for was that Sasori seemed to look down on them and was not using his full strength.
Glancing at the two who almost looked pale, Qifeng gritted his teeth and said, "Run separately, staying together will only lead to a faster death!"
After hesitating for only a second, Putian and the other also made a decision.
This was something that could not be helped. Being able to save anyone was a win.
"Okay!"
"Wait for my command. Whether you can escape depends on your own fate."
Without waiting for the two to reply, Qifeng quickly formed hand seals again.
"Earth Release! Earth Core Shock!"
Rumble——
The surrounding ground trembled violently. While a large amount of ground was sinking, even more soil and rock blocks quickly rose up, blocking Sasori's line of sight and shielding them from the iron sand.
"Run!" Qifeng shouted in a low voice, and his body suddenly shot out.
Putian and the other two also did not stop for a moment.
The three of them quickly fled in three completely different directions.
Sasori slowly condensed iron sand under his feet, dragging himself up, minimizing the impact of the Earth Core Shock.
"Heh, three weak ants, do you think you can escape like this?" Sasori chuckled softly, his face full of indifference.
His eyes swept across the three directions, "Which side should I start with?"
Qifeng fled frantically, not aiming for the mountain sentry post, because the strength stationed there could not stop Sasori either.
"That's all I can do. Whether you can run depends on your luck,"
He didn't think Putian and the others could escape.
But at this time, self-preservation was a problem, let alone taking care of the two of them.
After running for a while, he finally had a chance to catch his breath. Qifeng took out a small glass bottle from his pocket. Inside, there was the blood of his main body.
He took out a little and smeared it on his hand.
"Summoning Technique!"
Boom!
After a cloud of white mist, a large bird covered in brown feathers appeared in front of him.
With almost no hesitation, he jumped onto the bird's back and patted it heavily, "Go!"
