Mayuri Kurotsuchi Card Game, starting from Naruto

Chapter 304

"Engraved outfit?"

Upon hearing Lu Nie's words, the first name that came to Luo Sha's mind was this one.

As the village with the closest ties to Konoha, and which can even be said to have become a solid alliance of interests, Sunagakure naturally cares a great deal about and pays close attention to Konoha's intelligence.

Especially the Technology Development Bureau, which has the greatest vested interests in Sarawak.

The Sand Village knows about almost all the research conducted within the Technology Development Department, unless it is highly confidential.

If it is circulated outside, then even more information can be obtained.

The Engraved series of ninja tools is one such example. Furthermore, some of the technology from this series was even distributed to the commercial division of the joint venture between Konoha and Sunagakure, where it was applied to some of the puppets.

But that's just ninjutsu!

Rasa and his trusted Jonin each possessed a set of engraved ninja tools, all of which were custom-made to their individual needs.

For example, Maki's gloves have the characteristic of slightly amplifying his own wind-style chakra. In addition to the ninjutsu that can be inscribed on ninja tools, they also make his wind-style ninjutsu more lethal and faster to release with the same amount of chakra output.

"That's one way to understand it." Rokune seemed surprised that Rasa would associate it with engraved equipment, but he still nodded in agreement with his guess: "You can think of it as a ninja tool that can be used by ninjas and has the ability to convert chakra into Hollow power."

Since the Loulan incident, my teacher and I have devoted a lot of time and energy to the research of the power of etherealization.

Since the centipede from the future underwent a transformation into a void at the last moment, the existence of a void in the future has already become a reality.

It serves as a warning and a reminder.

"I see!" Luo Sha was also somewhat taken aback when he heard this.

Yes, since even the centipede from the future has been infected with the power of Hollowfication, does that mean that the Sand Village in the future fought against Hollows and obtained their power?

Is this also a future change? Or is a virtual disaster destined to happen?

Luo Sha was almost convinced of the compelling reason that the future was destined to happen.

So, my future self must have embraced this change and made targeted reforms, right?

After much deliberation, Luo Sha still believed that his future self would not have made the decision to seal the dragon vein.

"Would you like to test these ninja tools?" Shiro asked Rasa, pointing to the ninja tools laid out in front of him.

Rasa nodded silently and waved for the Sand Ninja behind him to come forward and select and equip their gear.

As for the experimental subjects?

Of the ninja tools sealed outside the oasis, releasing just one to test their effectiveness would be enough. Of course, the Hollow he personally sealed would never be released lightly. It truly possessed the destructive power to threaten his life as the Kazekage.

Of course, in order to maximize the effectiveness of the ninja tools that Shika Nie brought out, the testers were all Jonin from Sunagakure.

Outside the oasis.

As the runes on a small hill were unsealed, a scorpion-like phantom flashed out from the sand dune.

"Trying to escape? It's not like you're completely brainless."

Seeing the scorpion disappear into the yellow sand, Rasa narrowed his eyes slightly, his understanding and fear of the Hollow growing even stronger.

However, since it was a test, he certainly wouldn't allow the phantom to escape safely. He quickly formed hand seals, then squatted down and slapped his hands onto the sand beneath his feet.

The tremors started from where Luo Sha's palm was and spread outwards in a fan shape, stirring up rolling waves of sand in the sea of ​​sand.

Soon, as the ripples spread, the fleeing scorpion was blasted out of the desert, flying high into the air before landing with its claws outstretched.

A Sand Ninja equipped with a miniature bow and arrow frantically poured chakra into the bow with his hand. As a large amount of chakra was injected into the bow, the seemingly tiny bow underwent a strange change in front of everyone.

The bow and arrow seemed to become ethereal, expanding into a large bow composed of energy entities resembling chakra. Then, as the Jonin's other hand pulled back the illusory strings, a blue-black arrow appeared out of nothing.

Whoosh!

As the bowstring snapped back, the arrow flashed by and struck Scorpion Void, who was still in mid-air and hadn't yet fallen back to the ground.

The arrow pierced straight through the body, embedding itself deeply into the Scorpion Hollow's interior. Its seemingly impenetrable steel skin, capable of resisting numerous ninjutsu and taijutsu attacks, failed to provide the expected protection under the arrow's attack and was directly breached.

An invisible wave of sound swept in from afar, and Luo Sha and the others were subjected to a mental shock similar to an illusion.

They felt pain and intense anger from this shock.

The scorpion finally landed, but before it could make its next move, a sharp blade of light slashed down from above.

Scorpion's tail twitched suddenly in the air, stabbing towards the attacking Sand Ninja. However, this Sand Ninja was clearly skilled in taijutsu. He reacted extremely quickly in mid-air by flicking his wrist, and the downward slashing blade met the attacking scorpion tail from the side.

A section of the scorpion's tail separated from its body.

One of the sand clones was also weathered away by the scorpion's tail attack.

What followed was a barrage of arrows. This time, Scorpion Void was unable to put up any effective resistance and was completely routed by the relentless barrage of arrows, leaving only a tattered mask, which was constantly being eroded by the wind and sand.

"Did they... kill the other party?"

Rasa was also somewhat surprised to see the vanished Scorpion Hollow. To kill a Hollow, one would have to inflict an excessive amount of damage upon it.

Otherwise, if the damage is insufficient, the opponent's armor will be weakened by one layer first, and then the super-fast regeneration will weaken it by another large layer.

Overall, the cost of killing a Hollow is far greater than the cost of sealing one. And that only applies to miscellaneous Hollows.

Even if Rasa went all out, he could only break through the defenses and restrict the Great Hollow to a certain extent. Rasa knew very well that he could not kill it with excessive damage.

However, if he also possesses a matching engraved armor specifically designed for Hollows, then he might be able to completely kill a Hollow with his own power.

As for chakra?

Rasa, who had sealed the One-Tailed Beast into his body using a sealing technique, wasn't worried about that at all. Although he wasn't a perfect Jinchūriki, Rasa, whose Tailed Beast sealing technique's vulnerabilities had been resolved by Konoha, could still forcibly draw upon the One-Tailed Beast's power in crucial moments.
