Chapter 174 : The Battlefield!

Everyone nodded. Except for Fujin and Sora, the others took positions that would allow them to keep an eye on the cave entrance and help them in ambushing the enemy. Akihiko and Masaru also interrogated Yasuhiro and Datsuron about the interior of the cave. They drew up a rough map and also marked where the children were imprisoned. They also learnt that the SealMaster was a Priest as well. And he would never leave the cave.

Meanwhile, Sora began releasing the seals that he had observed and put fake seals in their place instead so that the SealMaster inside the cave wouldn't be alerted. Fujin followed him and observed his work properly. He was surprised.

Fujin thought, 'Wow! His mastery of the seals is way beyond mine! No wonder he was so confident. I wonder if he is a Grandmaster in Fuinjutsu.'

Fujin observed him very carefully. Though Sora used some seals that Fujin didn't know, most of the seals he used were the ones that Fujin knew or had read in the library. Though the seals were similar, Sora used many different methods to use the seals. What intrigued Fujin the most is how he placed fake seals and the speed at which he made them. The fake seal was placed almost instantly. Fujin's knowledge about seals grew every minute.

Sora noticed Fujin observing him. He thought, 'Looks like he is intrigued by the seals. Unfortunately, Fuinjutsu is very boring. He will be bored in some time.'

However, to his surprise, Fujin didn't lose his concentration for hours. In the end, he couldn't resist but ask, "Fujin, are you interested in becoming a SealMaster?"

Fujin nodded and said, "Yes. I have studied some seals from the Library. Though I am still a long way from becoming a SealMaster."

If it was earlier, Fujin would have never exposed his skill with the seals. However, after inscribing his home in ten times more seals than what the Jashinists inscribed on their base, it was only a matter of time before his skills became known. So he didn't bother hiding it actively anymore.

Sora was surprised. He thought, 'Now it makes sense why he has been observing my actions with so much concentration.'

He said, "That's good. If you have any questions, you may ask me."

Fujin immediately thanked him, "Thank You, Uncle Sora."

Fujin was aware that an opportunity to ask queries to someone as skilled as Sora in Fuinjutsu would be very rare. Fujin asked him for every doubt that he had. Surprisingly, Sora answered every question patiently while doing his job. This continued until 4:30 AM when Sora was finally done.

The group soon gathered together. Sora said, "The seals won't alert them of our presence any longer. We can enter the cave. I also added some seals that would help us deal with any more seals they might have inscribed inside the cave. So I would be able to neutralize them in much less time."

Akihiko nodded and said, "Good work. But, let's wait here for now. The two groups who would leave the cave will become suspicious if they don't find anyone here. So we will kill them first. Set up a battlefield here. I want them trapped outside the cave and also ensure that they won't be able to send any messages outside. One of them specializes in Reverse Summoning. So shut that down as well."

Sora smirked and said, "Alright."

He immediately got to work. He began inscribing seals in front of the cave entrance. Once they were done, he inscribed seals all around the place. There were seals to block sounds, chakra, light, etc., seals to create an illusion for anyone who'd watch from outside to prevent any suspicion, and seals that prevented summoning and reverse summoning.

In addition, he also created barriers to surround the entire place. It included a barrier on the ground to prevent any Earth element users from escaping underground. He also sealed the escape to the sky by creating another barrier to prevent anyone from sending messenger birds or messages through any such means.

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

In half an hour, Sora had inscribed seals in the area between the cave and the tents. Fujin watched thinking, 'Fuck! This is like those battlefield killer moves I read in novels! Stepping into this area and engaging in a battle with him would almost be a death sentence! Unless the enemy is significantly stronger than him, there is no way to get out. Worst case, he can still trap them here temporarily.'

Fujin immediately made a decision, 'I want it! But not this one. It is too slow. Once I reach the Grandmaster level, I'll create a Battlefield that I can deploy in seconds! It will be my hunting ground!'

With his work done, Sora approached Akihiko and said, "It's done."

Masaru smiled and said, "Let's kill those bastards."

Other than Akihiko, Masaru and Fujin, the other four weren't aware of what was happening.

Mieko asked, "What exactly did you do, Uncle Sora?"

Sora said, "I have inscribed seals in order to create the perfect ambush spot. Once they leave the cave, they will be trapped. We will be able to kill them all."

The four were impressed.

Akihiko said, "But we will kill them as soon as we can. No wasting time. I am having a bad feeling about this God of theirs. Sora, tell everyone their spots. And keep Fujin and Mieko together. They will begin the ambush."

Sora nodded. He assigned positions to stand for everyone. Once everyone was in place, he said, "As long as you are standing at the assigned spots, the enemy won't be able to see, hear or sense you. Of course, when you attack, they can guess from where the attack is coming."

He looked at Mieko and Fujin and said, "I will put up a barrier against the cave entrance once everyone leaves. Once you see the barrier, you can attack."

They both nodded and stayed in their position. Their position was directly next to the entrance. Once the barrier was up, they would launch their jutsu. Everyone else was standing in such spots that they wouldn't get in the line of fire. They waited patiently for the Jashinists to leave the cave.

They waited for half an hour, then an hour, then 2 hours! However, no one left the cave. Mieko was very annoyed. She complained, "When will those lazy asses come out of the cave?"

Fujin sighed and said, "They aren't gonna come faster if you keep yelling."

Mieko's shoulder dropped. She muttered, "Maybe they would if I left this stupid battlefield."

Fujin looked at her and wondered what Sora would think if he heard what Mieko said. Thanks to the seals in their spot, other than them, the others didn't hear what they were speaking. So he alone had to hear her complaints!

Finally, at around 7:30 AM, some people began appearing from the cave. All Konoha ninjas readied themselves for a battle. They watched carefully as the Jashinists were leaving the cave.

In all, 35 people left the cave. 2 of them were Priests, 9 were devotees and 24 were servants. As they left the cave, they entered Sora's battlefield. However, not a single person felt anything strange. Some left in silence, some were chatting casually and a few were excited about kidnapping more children and separating them from their parents. They talked as if it would be the greatest offering to their God.

Sora and Akihiko paid close attention to the entrance of the cave. Their Sharingans observed as deep into the entrance as they could. As soon as the last person entered the battlefield, Akihiko nodded. Sora made a hand sign and a barrier sealed them, cutting all access to the outside world.

Fujin and Mieko saw it. Both immediately built up a huge chakra!

'Wind Release: Infinite Breakthrough Jutsu'

'Fire Release: Majestic Destroyer Flame'

Mieko converted a quarter of her chakra into fire and expelled it from her mouth. The Jashinists weren't expecting any attack. Suddenly feeling the heat on their back shocked them. They turned around to see a Sea of Flames heading at them!

However, the very next moment, a massive wind hit the sea of flames. It made the fire burn even more fiercely and made it spread out. In addition, the winds themselves were extremely sharp! The wide range of the jutsu meant that none of them would be able to dodge it.

The Jashinists who were closer to the cave had no chance of resisting. They were burned alive! Luckily for the two Priests, they were among the first ones to leave the cave. They immediately made hand signs to use defensive moves.

One of them used the Water Prison jutsu to protect himself, while the other slammed his hands on the ground to use Earth Wall jutsu. Some of the devotees also tried using jutsus. 3 tried escaping underground, 4 decided to hide behind their priests while 2 panicked and couldn't do anything.

Unfortunately, the attempt to pour chakra into the ground to raise an Earth Wall by the Priest was blocked by the barrier. The 3 devotees who tried to escape underground were also blocked!

They were shocked. They looked ahead to see dozens of servants being engulfed by the fire. The priest looked at his fellow Priest and immediately jumped into his Water Prison. The other priest allowed him in.

The Fire finally engulfed them. The Priests sighed in relief when the fire didn't penetrate the Water Prison. However, all of a sudden a huge cut appeared on the Water Prison. It entered half a foot into the prison. The Priests, who had just put their guard down, immediately began pouring their chakra into the Water Prison.
