Naruto: All My Targets Are Ninjutsu

Chapter 157 Pain's Six Paths-Style Summoning Beast Material

As Obito spoke, Mikami Yu's hands moved like afterimages as he continuously pulled out kunai and shuriken with steel wires attached from his ninja tool pouch and flung them forward.

Although the ninja beast that resembled a lizard could conceal its form, this concealment was clearly only visual and could not materialize into another dimension like "Kamui". Therefore, when faced with these physical attacks, it could only keep dodging and waiting for an opportunity to get closer.

The clanging and tinkling sounds blended together.

In just over ten seconds, Mikami Yu almost completely missed with his kunai.

Most of the kunai and shuriken were dodged, embedding themselves in the tree trunks behind them and in the ground. Only a few landed on the lizard and were not thrown off by its movement.

Just then, Mikami Yu suddenly clenched his fists, unleashing tremendous force using the technique of "Super Strength," tightening the steel wires. Then, he opened his mouth and spat out a curse towards the shadow outlined by the wires: "Dragon Fire Technique!"

call--!

A condensed, almost tangible, fiery dragon roared forth, carrying terrifying penetrating power and speed!

Boom!!!

A towering flame erupted, and the towering trees, dozens of meters tall, were struck as if by a giant axe, making a teeth-grinding cracking sound. The thick trunks instantly carbonized and crumbled under the high temperature and impact, and the upper half of the crown collapsed with raging flames!

The flames dispelled the darkness of the area, instantly revealing a huge, blurry outline covered in dark green scales.

Just as Mikami Yu had guessed, the thing was indeed in the shape of a giant lizard, with a ferocious head, thick limbs, and a long tail trailing behind it. Its body had a color-changing camouflage similar to "penetration," and even under the firelight, it only showed a dark green outline.

now.

It was clearly injured and enraged. It opened its mouth and let out a deafening screech. Then it leaped up from a tree dozens of meters away, like a towering mountain, and pounced down on Mikami Yu, Obito and the group of hostages behind them!

A huge shadow instantly enveloped everyone, bringing a suffocating sense of oppression!

"Water Release·Water Formation Wall!"

Mikami Yu was well-prepared; the instant the giant lizard leaped up, his hands had already completed the hand seals for Water Escape, moving like butterflies flitting among flowers.

Whoosh—!

Chakra transformed into a thick, turbulent circular curtain of water, shooting skyward from the ground in front of and to the sides of the group! It firmly protected Mikami Yu, Nohara Rin, and the hostages!

boom! ! ! !

The giant lizard's massive body slammed into the rapidly spinning water curtain!

At that moment, a dull, drum-like impact exploded, making people's eardrums go numb! Water splashed everywhere, forming a white mist. Although the giant lizard's momentum was blocked by the water barrier for a few seconds, it eventually collapsed under the latter's powerful impact.

Take this opportunity.

The two water clones that Mikami Yu had created beforehand, along with Nohara Rin, each grabbed one or two hostages and retreated.

Then, Mikami Yu glanced at the Uchiha beside him: "Obito! Use your strongest Fire Release!"

"Understood! Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"

Obito, his Sharingan gleaming with two tomoe, locked onto the silhouette of the giant lizard struggling in the mist, and unleashed his full chakra! A blazing fire dragon, slightly less powerful than when Mikami Yu used it, but still enormous and ferocious, formed from several intertwined flames, roared forth and lunged at the giant lizard's head!

Mikami Yu timely removed the water barrier!

then----

Boom!!!

Without the water curtain to block it, the Haolong Fire crashed into the giant lizard, unleashing even more intense flames and a deafening roar!

The massive amount of water vapor generated by removing the water array wall came into contact with the extremely high temperature of the Haolong Fire. In an instant, it erupted with a "hissing" sound, and a thick, scorching white mist, so dense that one could not see their own hand in front of their face, spread wildly in all directions! It instantly engulfed an area of ​​tens of meters in radius!

"—Yu! Obito!"

Nohara Rin had already jumped away from the danger zone with the hostages and stopped on a mound a few dozen meters away. She anxiously looked at the area swallowed by the thick white fog, her heart in her throat, but she couldn't abandon her defenseless hostages and rush over to help.

In a short time.

All that could be heard from within the mist were the furious and painful roars of the giant beast, the crackling of flames, and the sharp sounds of close combat!

In such a foggy environment, neither the naked eye nor the Sharingan are of any use.

Otherwise, when Kakashi fought Zabuza, he wouldn't have needed to summon the Eight Ninja Dogs to break his "Hidden Mist Technique".

However, the lizard was indeed injured, and its body was studded with many shuriken with steel wire.

The distance between Mikami Yu and Obito and it was very close.

In this situation, even if you fight blindly with your eyes closed, there is a high probability that you will be able to hit its main body.

present.

"Instantaneous Shadow Killing Formation, activate!!"

As an invisible domain expanded into the mist, Yu Mikami's true form instantly transformed into six or seven afterimages. His white short sword slashed repeatedly, each strike carrying a sharp blade intent, landing on the giant lizard whose movements had become sluggish due to the burning and impact!

puff!puff!puff!

The sound of sharp blades cutting through flesh echoed continuously!

Light green blood gushed out like a fountain from all over the giant lizard's massive body! The excruciating pain made the giant lizard's roars even more ferocious and mad. Its huge body twisted and rolled wildly in the white mist, using its tail and limbs to lash and sweep indiscriminately in all directions!

Bang!

A small tree, about the size of a bowl, was swept in half!

Immediately afterwards, deep craters were smashed into the ground, and mud and water splashed everywhere!

"Damn it! This guy's already so badly injured, and he's still going berserk!"

With the Sharingan's excellent dynamic vision, Obito barely managed to catch a glimpse of the massive black shadow sweeping across the thick fog. He dodged the opponent's attacks several times with close calls, then swung his hands repeatedly, attempting to injure the giant lizard's eyes with kunai and shuriken, creating an opportunity for Mikami Yu's decisive strike.

However, at this moment, Mikami Yu subconsciously slowed down his sword strike. He changed his attack target from vital areas such as the eyes, throat, and heart to the monitor lizard's relatively thick carapace and limbs, which were not fatal, and his eyes gleamed with a strange light.

How to put it—

Yu Mikami has taken a liking to this monitor lizard.

Although its own strength is somewhat weak, and it might not be able to defeat a regular Jonin in a one-on-one fight, its color-changing invisibility mechanism is too excellent. Coupled with its decent defense and vitality, even after taking so many attacks from him and Obito, with its blood gushing out, it can still be so ferocious—

This is excellent material for summoning beasts!

Hmm—is it just my imagination? Why does this thing look a bit like one of Pain's summoning beasts?
