There were no trees or huge boulders to obstruct the view, just a plain and desert field, where Iwa and Suna forces faced each other at the end.

The distance between us was less than 1 km.

I was deployed to the very first frontline squad. This meant that my squad will be the first to contact Suna shinobi.

I was separated from Gari. Gari was deployed to the very backline with other explosion corps members and ordered to station there.

It was the unspoken rule for explosion corps to stay back during full out battle.

Even Muscle idiot Kento knew this, that's why he didn't order explosion corps to go frontline.

We can not send them all to the frontline to die as they are a valuable asset to Iwagakure.

Also, they can act as powerful reserves to reinforce the weak areas if something happens.

This will give Iwa shinobi physiological thinking that even if they mess up in battle, almighty powerful famous explosion corps are behind them and would cover their mistakes thus allowing them to have less pressure and confidence.

As for why I was sent out to frontline despite being an explosion corps member is all because of my curse title.

It seems my 'greatest genius' title and the fact that I created my own powerful taijutsu, outweighed explosion corps benefit of staying in the backline.

Although I have the confidence to win a fight with a jounin, I am not sure I can handle several of them coming at me.

Just how bad is my luck!

Soon Kento (division commander) appeared and took attention of every Iwa shinobi.

Kento has a scary face and very big.

These kinds of feature gave out intimidating aura which granted Iwa shinobi a confident boost.

Kento then started to give out his talk no jutsu speech to every Iwa shinobi.

As expected, as soon as he ended, All Iwa shinobi got brainwashed, roared valiantly with excitement, and kept shouting 'Iwa' repeatedly.

I used itchy ears as an excuse and covered my ears to prevent myself to get brainwashed. I almost got caught by his talk no jutsu, I am not falling for it again.

After seeing everyone brimming with the will of stone, Kento was very satisfied and ordered to charge.

"Everyone CHARGE!!!!!!!!! Clear out those Suna weaklings!!!"

Every Iwa shinobi charged at Suna force.

I was also charged, but I slowed down my speed a little bit. Nobody paid attention to my speed as all of them solely focused on reaching Suna force.

I wasn't slowing my speed because my fear got me.

I knew since Suna was prepared for our invasion force, I was 100% sure they got here to the battleground beforehand and already planted traps and mines (explosion tags)

.

I can not magically avoid those as I am not a sensor and I am definitely not betting on my luck to avoid those traps and mines.

Suddenly I heard the system's voice in my head.

-----

System: "*Alert*

*Battle Quest: Host officially has joined second great ninja war.

As it ks host's first battle, it is very important to win.

Please win the battle and kill at least 10 opposition shinobi

Reward: lighting release armour jutsu scroll(S-rank)

Failure: Your reputation and other's trust in you will fall greatly*"

------

'Wow, Its been a long time since System issued the quest. Let me see the reward.

Wait, Holy shit. A reward is Lighting release armour. That is third and fourth Raikage's special secret jutsu!! It's OP as shit. '

Suddenly, I got an inspiration.

I was planning to learn Earth Hardening jutsu later. This jutsu allows the user to encases their body in surrounding rock creating an armour. It has a good defence. But it's problem was it slows the user down.

If I combine lighting release armour's speed and earth hardening jutsu's defence and also with mighty wing Chun style, I might be really invincible in close combat.

I will use my explosion release and few useful lighting jutsu for offensive long-range.

Now I have a clear line of how should I become strong.

I will definitely finish this quest to get lighting release armour scroll!!!'

(A/N: Just to clear future misunderstanding, mc will not automatically able to use lighting release armour if he completes the quest.

He will only get scroll containing method to master the jutsu. So he has to practice to use lightning release chakra. )

As expected, Suna did plant traps and mines beforehand as some of the shinobi speeding ahead of me stepped on explosion tag and got blasted off.

But all Iwa shinobi kept charging without a fear.

I kept following the exact path of very lucky ones that didn't set off any traps.

Soon our distance between Suna became closer and closer.

Suna force didn't move and kept battle stance.

Suna commander suddenly shouted. "Get into Formation 1"

Suna force started to move quickly and we were able to see groups of shinobi holding Giant folding fans appeared.

(A/N: Let's just call them giant fan division)

Giant fan division shinobi started to swing their fans and threw powerful wind styles at us.

Since we were fighting on the sand, these wind styles quickly formed a fierce sandstorm and obstructed our view.

This caused Iwa shinobi to slow down.

"Get on to formation 2 and 3, Hurry!!"

I heard Suna commander shouting.

Suddenly, my instinct kicked in told me to move. I trusted my instinct and moved left.

Soon I barely saw few Shuriken passing through the place where I was before.

I quickly realized that Suna is throwing weapons at us as Iwa force are can not see and block them due to sandstorms.

I shouted loudly so that every Iwa shinobi caught in sandstorms can hear.

"Suna is throwing weapons at us. Quickly form mud wall to protect yourselves"

Every Iwa shinobi who heard me immediately formed a giant mud wall.

Iwa shinobi also started to counter-attack by offensive ninjutsu and throwing weapons back and advanced carefully.

We quickly got out of sandstorms and continued our charge.

Suna changed their formation again and this time it was a puppet users turn.

They quickly controlled their puppets to go near to us and threw the poison smoke bomb.

Although I could sense poison was powerful, but Iwa shinobi still didn't mind about poison and kept charging.

I was also still fine since I received intense poison training from captain Ishika.

I quickly performed a few hand signs.

"Earth style: Earth Dargon jutsu"

Earth dragon I created, flew to Suna puppet users.

They couldn't see my earth dragon because of poison smoke until it came out of the poison smoke.

They didn't panic and jumped away to dodge my earth dragon jutsu.

But it was same for me whether they dodge or not. Instantly I created an explosion as powerful as I could using my earth dragon jutsu.

Boom!!!!!!

I was sure my explosion at least killed several puppet users.

Suna was shocked that there was explosion corps among Iwa frontline force and panicked since my explosion created a gap in their formation.

Iwa shinobi force used this chance to use offensive Ninjutsu to other puppet users and advanced.

Seeing formation was breaking, Suna commander got angry.

Iwa force already got close them, the distance between them was even less than 50m.

"All Suna shinobi, we shall defend our land from Iwa blockheads. Charge!!!"

Suna commander gave all out the order and charged towards incoming Iwa shinobi force.

Soon, Suna and Iwa forces finally clashed and a lot of violent metal sounds could be heard.

Seeing Suna force finally attacked, Kento also couldn't suppress his urge to join the battle. He wanted to join frontline to lead the Iwa force.

But his advisers and other jounins persuaded him from leading the very first frontline.

They said he was the commander and if he gets injured, Iwa's morale will drop significantly, therefore he should be in a safe place.

But that was obviously not Kento's style.

When he saw Suna force going all out, he finally couldn't hold on.

He immediately ordered every shinobi that are in the backline, including explosion corps to follow him and join the battle.

His advisers wanted to stop him but knew it was impossible already.

Explosion corps and other few remaining Iwa shinobi followed their commander's order and with Kento, they joined the chaotic battlefield.
