Although somewhat unexpected, Rasa did not feel this was a threat; this method of flight could not be sustained and made it difficult to evade attacks.
Coincidentally, his aerial manipulation of Sand Gold was extremely suitable for attack, and a large number of Sand Gold bullets poured down like a stream, covering all the Ling's maneuvering areas.
Even if the Ling relied on extreme speed and defense to brave the hail of bullets and reach Rasa, he had nowhere left to gain leverage.
Rasa's mouth twisted into a smirk, and a huge Sand Gold cube condensed above his head, striking down fiercely; he was waiting for the moment when the opponent had no leverage and their speed slowed.
"Heh heh, do you think you've got me cornered? It's time to use the Moonwalk I developed back then."
As a Body Cultivator, how could Uchiha Rei not try to emulate the Marine Six Powers? Unfortunately, apart from Moonwalk, Tempest Kick, Soru, and Finger Pistol, Iron Body and Paper Arts did not achieve the desired effects.
Moreover, these four pure body techniques not only consumed a tremendous amount of stamina but also significantly damaged the body, making most people in the Ninja World unable to meet the requirements for their use.
With a stomp in mid-air, combined with Wind Release Chakra and her own explosive speed, the Ling barely dodged the Sand Gold cube as it was about to hit.
She arrived above Rasa, who looked stunned, and Karura and Chiyo were not much better; such outrageous maneuvers were unprecedented.
Rasa immediately tried to manipulate the Sand Gold to retreat, but a black lightning bolt suddenly erupted from his Sand Gold armor, instantly numbing his body.
If Karura hadn't pulled him, he would have already fallen from the sky, but this made him lose his chance to escape.
"Lightning Release: Lariat!" One leg lifted, striking down like a battle-axe, imbued with extremely condensed lightning; this move was both incredibly fast and incredibly heavy.
Rasa wanted to escape, but it was too late; he could only endure the internal injuries and numb body, conjuring a barrier of Sand Gold to block the attack, while Karura also used Sand Release to help strengthen the defense.
However, all of this was futile; this attack from the Ling not only contained the explosive power of monstrous strength but also the enhancement of Yang Lightning and the burst of Cursed Energy.
With this kick, the Sand Gold barrier was shattered, followed by the Sand Release barrier, which was still breached, but its speed had significantly decreased, and after being obstructed by Chiyo's puppets, the three managed to survive.
But they fell from the sky like meteors; if Rasa hadn't used Sand Gold to support them at the critical moment, they would likely have suffered severe injuries.
However, the Ling wouldn't give them a moment to breathe; with a classic Leo Kick, sparks frictioned from her feet, accompanied by flashing lightning, this strike was no less than a celestial body falling to earth.
Just as the three had calmed the chaotic reverse flow of blood within them, they saw the Ling relentlessly pursuing them from the sky; with a tacit understanding, they each kicked the other, and the three narrowly dodged the attack.
A large pit about ten meters in diameter was smashed into the ground, and Rasa and the other two were blown away by the shockwave, rolling into the Sand Ninja ranks.
As the smoke cleared, the Ling walked out, dusting herself off; seeing this scene, thousands of Sand Ninja dared not advance, their eyes filled with terror.
"Kill! He is only one person!" Someone in the crowd shouted, and the Sand Ninja, already on edge, instinctively began to charge.
But their wide eyes and dilated pupils all indicated their inner fear, yet as everyone charged together, fear was replaced by fervor.
The Ling knew without looking that Ebizo had shouted that, and he took advantage of the Sand Ninja charging forward to escort Rasa and the other two to the rear.
The three had not suffered any external injuries, but their internal injuries were quite severe; facing such a fast, powerful, and heavy enemy, even if they narrowly dodged, they were easily harmed by the aftershocks.
This was also because the Ling had not used her full strength; otherwise, if she appeared even stronger than the Third Raikage, it would have given her away.
The Yin Lightning corroded their vital energy and weakened their will, making Rasa's internal injuries even more severe.
Facing the swarming Sand Ninja, Ling seemed to have awakened her Uchiha bloodline, feeling that these people were not fighting well.
Once the heat of battle ignited, it was difficult to extinguish, so Ling decided that she would only fight through these Sand Ninja and stop there, not returning to kill more.
Although the Sand Ninja were numerous, she faced at most ten to twenty people at a time, ten to twenty Sand Ninja, the strongest of whom were Special Jonin, which was as easy as slaughtering chickens.
However, Ling was ruthless; she didn't kill them outright but aimed to cripple them, creating a thousand disabled individuals, to see if they would still have the money to wage war.
If a thousand disabled individuals were not given pensions, the internal conflicts would likely erupt directly, and once they erupted, transferring them externally would no longer be an option.
She didn't need any fancy body techniques; simply relying on basic body techniques and powerful sensory abilities, Ling moved through them unimpeded.
It was like Edo Madara dealing with the Allied Shinobi Forces, and the Ling didn't even need to defend; relying on the defense of Yang Lightning and Tiger Burial, these Sand Ninja simply couldn't break through her defense.
The path was strewn with severed limbs flying everywhere, and screams were incessant; after killing her way for dozens of meters, a bloody trail lay behind her, with only some disabled Ninja wailing.
She tilted her head to dodge a Kunai, pinching it with two fingers; with her left hand, she shot the Kunai, piercing the thigh of a Sand Ninja on her right.
With her right hand, she picked up an Exploding Tag, directly attaching it to the chest of a Sand Ninja in front of her, then sent him flying with a palm strike, followed by an explosion.
Needless to say, he was dead beyond dead, but at this moment, no Sand Ninja retreated; instead, their eyes turned bloodshot as they charged forward.
Battlefields generally have three stages: first, fear but being swept up by the group, full of fervor; the second stage, seeing red, almost unable to distinguish friend from foe.
The third stage is when the adrenaline recedes, sanity returns, followed by extreme fear and physical weakness, which is why the Ling was now on the verge of breaking the Sand Ninja.
Only about ten people had died by her hand, but over two hundred had been crippled, and this number was constantly increasing.
No one could withstand a single blow from her; a single hand chop could incapacitate several people, and any thrown or scattered Ninja tools from the opponents were also utilized.
The Sand Ninja dared not use large-scale, non-single-target Ninjutsu, fearing they would injure their teammates, or perhaps they simply didn't know any powerful single-target Ninjutsu.
At most, they would infuse their Ninja tools with Wind Release Chakra, hoping to break through her lightning armor, but her armor wasn't Lightning Release; it was Yang Lightning, and it wasn't countered by Wind Release.
Therefore, the result was that she hadn't lost a single hair, but the Sand Ninja's fervor was rapidly fading, and at this moment, Rasa and Chiyo had recovered their combat strength through Medical Ninjutsu.
So Ling decided to speed things up, using a pirated Shinra Tensei to clear an area, then using a Four Finger Nukite disguised as a Chidori to pierce through the chests of several people.
The lightning grew increasingly violent, and the Yang Lightning seemed to trigger changes in the weather; soon, dark clouds gathered, and before long, heavy rain poured down.
In the rainy night, only a blue-white lightning bolt flickered; the heavy rain could not conceal the smell of blood and the screams, and soon, it seemed to reach a tipping point.
The surrounding Sand Ninja began to hesitate, and the Ling had also fought her way through the entire Sand Ninja formation.
