Konoha's Mission Master

Yakumo no longer held back; his silver blade energy, like a silver tornado, swept up the water from the underground lake and soared into the sky, crashing into the blue infant.

Meanwhile, under Yakumo's cover, Jiraiya began to search as much as possible for any surviving girls, but his face was gradually turning gloomy as he searched nearly thirty wooden boats without finding any survivors.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Faced with the roaring silver waterspout, more than a dozen cyan infants chose to self-destruct. The combined shockwave countered the silver waterspout, and after a violent earthquake, the roaring waterspout exploded and scattered.

"bump."

Two shadow clones appeared, their hands quickly forming hand seals.

"Immortal Technique·Water Release·Big Explosive Water Wave!"

"Immortal Technique·Water Release·Big Explosive Water Wave!"

The scattered water dragons gathered into a torrent in mid-air, swirling around Yakumo's body. More water flowed towards Yakumo's main body, and the torrent gradually grew and spread, becoming increasingly terrifying.

The next moment, Yakumo waved his hand forward, and the gathered torrent transformed into a giant wave tens of meters high, roaring down... carrying unparalleled power, washing away the products of evil and sin.

The blue infants were knocked down by the terrifying impact, and the enormous weight pressed down on them, causing their bones to crack instantly.

Blue babies floated on the surface of the underground lake, emitting piercing howls. They were not dead, but they had lost their ability to fight.

Jiraiya, along with Fukasaku and Shima Sage on his shoulders, were shocked by the power of Yakumo's ninjutsu, especially the familiar yet incredibly strange Sage Chakra they sensed within Yakumo's body.

"Old man, this power must be some kind of divine magic, right?"

“It should be right…” Fukasaku the Immortal blushed.

During those months, he mocked Yakumo's overestimation of his abilities countless times... showing no mercy whatsoever.

But now reality has slapped him in the face.

On the other hand, Yakumo had already broken through the giant waves and rushed to the Twilight Priest, slashing rapidly with his twin swords.

Clang, weapons clashing.

The long-handled, three-edged sickle was deflected by its double blades.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yakumo exerted force with his feet, and crossed his twin blades to slash at the half-naked chest of the Twilight Priest. Yakumo's nostrils twitched, and he could clearly smell the strong bloody stench emanating from the Twilight Priest.

A flash of silver light.

With a soft splatter, blood splattered.

A cross-shaped scar was slashed across the Twilight Priest's chest. Compared to a few months ago, Yakumo's blade had become even sharper, and the stinging pain, like something stuck in his throat, made the Twilight Priest's hair stand on end.

With a thud, he flung out a cloud of purple smoke.

poisonous!

Yakumo immediately leaped back, moving away from the area shrouded in smoke. At the same moment, dozens of transparent water droplets pierced through the Twilight Priest.

The excruciating pain excited the Twilight Priest even more. Blood gushed from the wound, but a few seconds later... his body automatically stopped the bleeding, and the wounds were healing at an extremely fast pace.

"Hahahaha... I am immortal."

The Twilight Priest laughed maniacally, his expression resembling Hidan from his memories, but his aura had diminished, clearly indicating that his immortality was only a half-finished product.

Yakumo gripped his twin swords tightly, unleashing a storm-like tornado of sword energy that hurtled toward the Twilight Priest at incredible speed. Instantly, the priest's blood-red robe was torn apart, revealing his bloodless, withered upper body.

"The Art of Stealing Essence!"

Amidst the sea of ​​flashing blades, the Twilight Priest bit his palm and slammed it onto the lake's surface. The wailing blue infants exploded simultaneously, drops of blue blood surfacing from their bodies, and their remaining remains withered almost instantly.

Yakumo sensed that the blue blood contained a very rich and pure alien chakra.

Different types of chakra are chakra that do not belong to the seven attributes of Yin, Yang, Earth, Lightning, Wind, Fire, and Water. For example, the Mouryou of the Land of Demons, the Dragon Vein of the Land of Wind, and the chakra possessed by the Zero-Tailed Beast can all be considered different types of chakra.

Under the influence of an unknown force, the blue blood droplets were gradually absorbed into the Twilight Priest's body. His white hair was gradually replaced by black hair, the wrinkles on his face quickly disappeared, his muscles became fuller, his skin regained its luster, and his aura gradually became more powerful.

This scene gave Yakumo a sense of familiarity.

Yakumo gripped his twin blades, pressing them tightly against the Twilight Priest not far away. Although the enemy's immortality was not as complete as Hidan's, it could still ignore fatal attacks. Therefore, to kill his opponent, he needed an opportunity to cut the enemy into a thousand pieces and mincemeat.

"drink."

The next second, the Twilight Priest drew his three-bladed scythe and charged toward Yakumo, the sound of air being cut through the air... He slashed the scythe directly toward Yakumo's abdomen.

Clang... The weapons clashed, scattering sparks everywhere.

Yakumo used his sword-wielding technique to deflect the Twilight Priest. The two gradually increased the speed and power of their collision, and sparks were generated and then extinguished in a very short time. Yakumo finally realized that the Twilight Priest had truly become stronger.

It turns out that those blue babies were not created to be used as weapons, but to extract and filter chakra from the mother's body, just like planting a seed of foreign chakra in spring and harvesting a fruit containing foreign chakra in autumn... which is the blue blood droplet.

The two ran across the lake, slashing at each other with their weapons. The Twilight Priest was fearless of getting hurt and even abandoned defense during the battle, while Yakumo had to maintain perfect defense so that the enemy could not take a single drop of blood from him.

Anxious... searching for an opportunity.

Yakumo stepped back, adjusting her breathing.

You must not erratically breathe during combat.

"what!"

The Twilight Priest leaped up and slammed his arms down at Yakumo. After a moment's thought, Yakumo took two steps back to avoid the Twilight Priest's attack range.

At the same time, the demon-subduing spell is cast!

"Sever the Void!"

The air above the blade shattered like a mirror.

The next second, a straight silver thread appeared in the void, and at the same time, the long-handled three-edged scythe was completely severed.

The priest at dusk looked horrified.

"Net up and entangle!"

Yakumo wielded his twin blades, forming a black and white net of blades that confined the Twilight Priest within it, and increased the speed of his sword swings, leaving only strands of the two-colored blade light weaving into a net.

"Magic - Toad's Lament".

Suddenly, Jiraiya made his move.

The opportunity has arrived… A sharp glint flashed in Yakumo’s eyes.

The Twilight Priest was frozen in place by the croaking of frogs. Yakumo immediately drew his sword, forming a silver storm that slashed at the Twilight Priest's body. In his despairing gaze, the silver sword storm was like a high-powered meat grinder, pulverizing every inch of the Twilight Priest's flesh and bones.

The shadow clone waved its hand, and a huge water sphere enveloped the remains of the Twilight Priest, while the main body rapidly formed hand seals.

"Immortal Technique - Sealing Technique - Yin-Yang Seal".

Black and white patterns spread across the entire water sphere in a dozen seconds, eventually forming two chakra cores, "Yin" and "Yang," on the surface of the water sphere.

The next second, Yin and Yang continued to spread and combine into the character "封" (seal). The dual-system chakra released a faint light, and the water sphere was gradually compressed, eventually transforming into a black and white sphere the size of a thumb.

This sphere sealed the remains of the Twilight Priest.

Yakumo grasped the black and white sphere formed by the Yin-Yang Seal and tossed it into his ninja tool pouch.

The Yin-Yang Seal will draw chakra from the sealed object to strengthen the seal. In other words, this seal has the potential to grow and will only become more unbreakable over time.

Yakumo swung his sword, shaking off the blood on its blade. The blade of the Demon-Subduing Sword regained its cold, sharp light, like a finely polished mirror that clearly reflected Yakumo's appearance.

The blood-red immortal mark between his brows gradually faded away.

Jiraiya came to Yakumo's side and shook his head.

There were no survivors in those wooden boats, and Jiraiya collected all the corpses in a few minutes.

Yakumo's face was slightly gloomy. Just then, a gaunt human figure broke through the water column and landed on the lake.

It was a fanatical believer covered in black scales, carrying an unconscious girl on his shoulder.

He seemed to act purely on instinct, paying no attention to the situation on the surface of the underground lake, and simply carried the girl closer and closer to the center of the altar where the Twilight Priest had been kneeling.

Yakumo flashed to his side and drew his sword with effortless ease.

A single stroke to decapitate.

Yakumo carried the unconscious girl and smiled.

"Let's go, we'll leave the rest to the Akatsuki."

Jiraiya waved his hand.

"it is good."

The two of them found Yahiko and the other two again based on their memories.

Yakumo handed the unconscious girl to Konan. He had checked her body and found no signs of foreign chakra invasion. She was unconscious only because she had been hit hard on the neck, which had obstructed the flow of chakra in her body.

Jiraiya then explained to Yahiko the parts that needed to be done by the Akatsuki. Seeing that they hadn't finished yet, Yakumo gave a briefing to Konan and then disappeared into the rain to return to the Akatsuki's base.

On the streets of Amegakure, Yakumo tapped the game interface.

He spoke softly.

"Submit, quarterly feedback, tasks."

'Detection: Blood-Robed Priest Twilight, deceased.'

[Note: Congratulations on completing the quarterly reward.]

'Hint: Task rewards are being distributed.'

[Note: Congratulations! You have received 20000 gold coins, 4 attribute points, and a Grandmaster Breakthrough Scroll.]

Rewards have been distributed. We wish you a pleasant gaming experience.

A smile appeared on Yakumo's face, but it didn't last long. He encountered the middle-aged man who had knelt down that morning, begging the Akatsuki to save his daughter, in the Akatsuki's lobby.

In fact... he knew that the chances of his daughter being alive were very low, but even a small hope was still a hope.

"Young man... do you know what's going on?"

The man held Yakumo's hands and asked a question, the flame in his eyes seeming as if it might be extinguished at any moment.

“There was a survivor, but I’m not sure if that person was your daughter.”

The flames in his eyes burned fiercely.

Yakumo broke free from the restraints on his hands, leaped several times, and arrived at the platform on the tenth floor of the Akatsuki organization, quietly overlooking the entire Amegakure.

Actually… he just lied.

Milkball can locate the cult's headquarters on the underground lake directly through the girl's underwear, which proves... that person's daughter is on those wooden boats.
