Chapter 95 We have the Eight-Headed Serpent Technique! (3.3k views)

"Sizzle..."

"Sizzle sizzle...!!!"

The Konoha battlefield, already completely engulfed by the flames of war and the roar of battle, was suddenly illuminated by an extremely violent purple lightning bolt.

In an instant, almost all the ninjas who were fighting stopped, and at the same time witnessed streaks of purple lightning, crisscrossing and dancing like wild dragons, raging and flashing within the second position.

"What happened?"

Within the Four Purple Flame Formation, Ye Cang kicked away Uchiha Inahime, who was attacking from the side, and then ducked low, narrowly avoiding Teacher Chen's sweeping Konoha Whirlwind.

He then leaped back several times to create distance and landed steadily on the other side of the formation.

Taking on three opponents at once wasn't much of a challenge for her.

These three people in front of us are troublesome, but that's all they are.

It's far from being a problem that would cause Yekura any trouble.

However now—

Through the constantly twisting and shaking purple barrier of the Four Purple Flames Array, one can see the chaotic battlefield outside the array.

Outside the sealing formation, the Sand Village forces are engaged in fierce combat with the Konoha ninja.

In the direction of the second position, although the sudden burst of purple lightning had gradually subsided, the lingering chakra fluctuations in the air were still unsettling.

In addition—

Luo Sha has not yet arrived.

All of this made her feel a little irritated.

She wasn't worried about losing.

Even if these three people are troublesome, they are not enough to truly threaten her life.

What really upset her was that the current situation was clearly starting to deviate from the original plan.

"Buzzing..."

Three fireballs slowly rotated and lit up behind Yekura.

As the fireball appeared, the surrounding air instantly became scorching and distorted, and even the fine dust particles that fell into the formation were instantly extinguished by the high temperature.

Ye Cang remained expressionless, but her beautiful eyes burned with murderous intent.

This battle has dragged on for far too long.

The longer it drags on, the more variables there will be.

What she hates most is this kind of situation that is outside her control.

"Hey, Kosuke-senpai, Chen-senpai—" Uchiha Inahisa pushed herself up from the ground, panting as she spoke bitterly, "How much longer will our mission drag on? If it drags on any longer, our chances of winning are very low—"

At this moment, his way of addressing the two of them had changed from the initial perfunctory indifference to a heartfelt "senior".

After all, if it weren't for these two seemingly ordinary, even somewhat unremarkable, old ninjas who always stood at the forefront, sharing most of the pressure for him...

He probably wouldn't last more than a few rounds.

This woman's scorching escape technique is too dangerous.

At best, it can cause serious injury and knock someone to the ground.

In severe cases, they can turn into dried-up corpses on the spot.

"Almost there..." Maruhoshi Kosuke, who also bore several burn marks, said in a deep voice, "Let's stall a little longer—"

He looked through the purple sealing array at the sky on the horizon, which was briefly illuminated by lightning and then suppressed by darkness again, before looking back at Teacher Chen, who had been burned.

In a brief exchange of glances, the two old ninjas understood each other's meaning.

"Proceed as planned!"

"I see!"

Without any hesitation, Teacher Chen rushed out again.

A shallow pit was trodden into the ground, and his figure transformed into a rapidly moving black shadow, closing in on Ye Cang in the blink of an eye.

"Leaf Storm!"

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

"Sword Shadow Clone Technique!"

The three launched a coordinated attack, pressing down on Yekura once more.

Meanwhile, the second front.

Smoke billowed, flames still raged, and the air was filled with intermittent screams and wails. The smell of overcooked roasted meat was both nauseating and chilling.

The raging purple lightning bolt just now seemed to possess a spirit of its own, precisely bypassing the Konoha ninjas and heading straight for the Sunagakure side.

As a result, most of the Sand Village ninjas were engulfed by the lightning in an instant before they even had time to react.

This attack almost abruptly interrupted the Sand Village's offensive on the second position.

"I have to say, Konoha is still powerful..."

"7

There are countless geniuses.

"Konoha's White Fang, the Legendary Sannin of Konoha, the Yellow Flash..."

97

Chiyo's voice came from the still-lingering smoke and dust, her tone heavy, yet tinged with a complex mix of envy and appreciative emotion.

"Now, even a brat from the Hyuga clan can use such a Lightning Release technique—"

As the last sentence fell, the smoke was finally dispersed by the night wind, revealing the figures within.

Chiyo stood still, the chakra shield in front of her still emitting a faint glow.

All the purple lightning bolts that had attacked her earlier were forcibly blocked by her using "Puppet Technique: Mechanical Light Shield Seal".

However, even if she could protect herself, she couldn't protect all the Sand Village ninjas.

Chiyo's gaze slowly swept over her surroundings.

Apart from a very few Sand Village ninjas who reacted quickly enough to deploy defenses or take cover, the vast majority of the unsuspecting people had all been turned into unrecognizable charred corpses.

Tragic, chaotic, and shocking.

That's really amazing!

Chiyo sighed softly to herself.

The murderous intent in his eyes grew even stronger.

"Young man, I must admit, I admire you greatly." She spoke slowly as she manipulated the puppets to rearrange their formation. "At your age, to achieve this level is enough to earn you a place in Konoha's battle reports, making you a true genius."

After catching a glimpse of Luo Sha arriving at the battlefield, she turned and said, "However, before you completely destroy this battlefield, I'll deal with you first."

"after all----"

Chiyo slowly raised her head, her gaze fixed on the sky, a hint of anticipation rising in her eyes.

"Shukaku wouldn't be eyeing a genius like you."

High in the sky, Luo Sha stood on golden sand, his entire figure like a dazzling shooting star against the dark night sky.

And on his shoulder stood a small figure.

That was a Shukaku that had been sealed and compressed.

Shukaku of the Sands [Sealed Version].

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh—!!!"

Suddenly, just as Rasa arrived above the Leaf Village's position, several sharp wind-style attacks came from all directions.

They sealed off almost all his escape routes from different angles.

"Hiss hiss hiss..."

The gold dust swirled up, transforming into a thick golden barrier that blocked all the incoming wind attacks.

The wind blades struck the sand gold, producing a piercing scraping sound.

Countless golden grains were shredded and scattered, then quickly reassembled under the control of Rasa's chakra.

However, since Shukaku was currently standing on his shoulder, Rasa was unable to fully protect himself.

A remnant of a wind blade grazed his right upper arm, slicing through his sleeve and leaving a shallow wound on his skin.

Fresh blood seeped out.

But it was quickly cooled by the night breeze.

Want to launch a sneak attack...?

Luo Sha glanced down at the wound, his expression remaining completely unchanged.

It's utterly ridiculous.

"Go, Shukaku," Rasa glanced at Shukaku on his shoulder and said in a deep voice, "As agreed, the village will search with all its might for that guy who calls himself 'Blue'."

"I'll have to trouble you this time."

"Hmph." Shukaku in the tea cauldron snorted disdainfully, its sharp voice full of arrogance, "Since I promised, I will not go back on my word."

Upon hearing Shukaku's affirmative answer, a slight smile finally appeared on Rasa's usually expressionless, dead-fish-like face.

"Then let's go—"

"Shukaku the One-Tailed Beast!"

The next moment, Rasa suddenly tore open the seal on Shukaku's body.

boom!!!

The moment the seal shattered, the incredibly violent tailed beast chakra exploded.

A terrifying shockwave spread outwards from the sky, causing even the ninjas on the battlefield below to feel a tightness in their chests, as if an invisible hand had been pressed hard on their hearts.

Shukaku, which was originally compressed and bound, expanded rapidly during its fall.

Countless grains of sand converged wildly from all directions.

A thick tail unfolded first, followed by a massive body, ferocious claws, a sand shell covered with rune-like patterns, and a huge beast face with a maniacal laugh.

In the blink of an eye, Shukaku of the Sands reappeared in its complete and enormous form.

Boom!!!

With a deafening crash, the earth trembled violently.

A cloud of smoke and dust billowed into the sky, shaking the surrounding Konoha defenses and causing many ninjas to be knocked to the ground by the shockwave.

"I'm back!!!" As soon as Shukaku landed, it roared and laughed deafeningly, its massive sand claws slapping wildly at the surroundings.

"Hahahahaha!!!"

Orochimaru!

"And that kid too!"

"All of you, get out here and face your death!!!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Immense tremors continued to come, and the entire second position seemed to shake under the roar of Shukaku.

After a brief moment of astonishment, the Sand Village ninjas' morale soared.

On the Konoha side, many ninjas' expressions changed drastically, and fear uncontrollably surfaced in their eyes.

But when Hyuga Seiran heard Shukaku's angry roar filled with resentment and vengeance, he only smiled slightly.

He looked up at Chiyo, who was radiating murderous intent, and smiled, "Is this your trump card?"

"If that's all there is to it—"

"That's a real shame. Konoha isn't to be trifled with."

Upon hearing this, Chiyo, who was controlling the puppet to continue approaching, paused slightly.

So composed?

How could he maintain this attitude when Shukaku appeared?

Could it be that—

Konoha is preparing a Tailed Beast too?!

In her understanding, the only thing that can truly confront a Tailed Beast head-on is the Tailed Beast itself.

This is especially true in such a chaotic battlefield of life and death.

Unless you have an extremely well-equipped sealing team and a large number of elite ninjas working together, suppressing a fully unleashed tailed beast is practically a pipe dream.

Apart from Hashirama Senju, who was able to suppress the Tailed Beasts single-handedly back then, even the "Kage" of the major ninja villages often had to rely on multiple people attacking the Tailed Beasts together, supplemented by a sealing team, in order to barely suppress them.

But now....

Shukaku has appeared.

Within the Konoha camp, there were no signs of a large-scale operation by the sealing squad.

The Third Hokage was not present either.

In this situation, if Konoha truly has the strength to deal with Shukaku—

In Chiyo's view, there was only one possibility left.

Nine-tailed.

"No,"

Seemingly sensing Chiyo's wariness, Hyuga Seiran slowly explained, while subtly making a gesture with his right hand towards the Konoha members behind him, signaling them to retreat and deploy their defenses as planned.

They said, "We possess the Eight-Headed Serpent Technique."

Deep within the Konoha camp, an extremely powerful, cold, and massive chakra suddenly erupted.

boom!!!

The entire cliff face seemed to tremble at that moment.

One after another, the heads of giant white phosphorus snakes emerged from the cliff face, clinging densely to the rock walls, precipice, and rubble.

The enormous white phosphorus body was entrenched behind the Leaf Village's position, like an ancient monster crawling out of mythology and nightmares.

"Hiss hiss hiss————"

A series of loud hissing sounds rang out.

Its size, chakra, and power are almost comparable to the Yamata no Orochi, the One-Tailed Shukaku.

Make your entrance!
