Naruto: Starting with the Two Kamui

Nara Shikamaru said, "This shows that Mr. Utaka's black chakra ball is something the enemy is very wary of! As long as we find the location where the main body is hiding, we have a chance of winning!"

Snap! Snap! Snap!

Several ice dragons, carrying a bone-chilling cold, coiled around Yu Gao's body!

"Awoooooo...!!" Yu Gao struggled violently.

Crackling sounds... But the terrifying cold was so intense that even the Tailed Beast Cloak was showing signs of freezing!

Suddenly, Yu Gao stopped struggling, lowered his head, and slumped his shoulders.

Hiruzen!

Hiss... Yu Gao's tailed beast robe suddenly turned dark purple, and the powerful acid secreted from his body corroded the ice dragon!

Strong acid—this is a unique ability of the Six-Tailed Rhinoceros!

Mei Terumi said, "That mode can release strong acid, but it can't use the Tailed Beast Ball!"

Are there any mode restrictions...?

Shikamaru's heart skipped a beat, and he prepared to form hand seals. At the same time, he said, "Ino, activate your sensory mode! The enemy's true form is very likely to reveal itself!"

Ino exclaimed in surprise, "Huh?? Why would you think that!"

Shikamaru said, "Although that clone can regenerate infinitely, it can never completely replace the original body. I don't think the enemy is strong enough to defeat the Jinchuriki with just a clone! When the time is right, the original body will definitely take action!"

"I see!" Ino closed her eyes and activated her perception mode.

Snip!

The Ice Phoenix once again revealed its form as an ice witch in the sky...

Cha-cha-cha!

A dozen or so ice spears condensed in mid-air and shot towards Yu Gao with a wave of her hand!

Despite his instinctive efforts to dodge, Yu Gao was still struck by several ice spears...

"Awoooooo!!" he let out a howl.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Powerful ice-style energy penetrated his body, freezing Yu Gao in place, unable to move!

At this moment, the true form, hidden in the shadows, formed a hand seal.

—Ice Release: Cold Moon Frost!

*Crackling sound!*

The ice froze into a huge block, sealing Yu Gao inside!

"Found it!! In the cold fog at six o'clock!!" Ino exclaimed, opening her eyes.

"Understood!!" Shikamaru replied.

—The art of shadow imitation!!

Whoosh!!

Shikamaru's shadow stretched rapidly... and successfully connected with Ao's shadow in that cold mist!

Qingxiu frowned slightly, looking at the shadow at her feet: "Among those three children watching the battle, are any members of the Konoha Nara clan...?"

Phew! !

Beyond the icy mist, the Ice Soul clone conjured an ice spear in its palm and aimed it at Shikamaru from afar!

But then they saw Mei Terumi rapidly forming hand seals.

Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bullet!

Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet!

Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet!

A dragon of three chakra natures rises... Mei Terumi herself possesses chakra natures of fire, earth, and water, but she is more proficient in water release!

The fire dragon and the earth dragon blocked the incoming ice spears...

The water dragon struck the ice spirit clone in the sky! Although it couldn't defeat it, it bought them a little time!

"Ino!! Use Mind Swing!! With my power, I can't hold her off for long!!" Shikamaru said, sweating profusely.

Ino said anxiously, "It's no use! The enemy is covered by the cold mist, and I can't aim my Mind Turn Technique!"

Click!Click!

The ice that had been sealing Utakata broke apart, and Utakata changed his chakra form, gathering a Tailed Beast Ball in front of his mouth, ready to fire it at the Ice Soul clone in the sky!

A thought suddenly flashed through Shikamaru's mind: "Ino, use the Heart-Turning Technique on Utakata!!"

"Huh!?" Ino was startled, then immediately realized, "Shikamaru, as expected of you!!"

She gestured towards Yu Gao's back!

—The Art of Mind Turning!

hum! ! !

Yu Gao's body jolted violently...

The Tailed Beast Ball, originally aimed at the sky, was fired at the six o'clock position of the icy mist!

Rumble rumble rumble rumble!!!

A giant mushroom of light rose up...

Ino Shin's Turning Technique was deactivated, and he gasped for breath: "Huff, huff... Mr. Utaka's chakra is too amazing. I can't control it for long now, and that chakra ball must have missed a bit!"

The Shadow Imitation Technique was also deactivated. Shikamaru wiped his sweat and said, "That's enough... Even if that attack missed, it would still be enough to give her a hard time!!"

The cold mist dissipated...

On the ravaged ground, Qinghuoyun's robe was tattered, one arm was missing, and blue blood was flowing from the severed wound!

Large swathes of ice crystals were scattered around her, tinkling softly.

Shikamaru was astonished: "Even after being hit by my Shadow Imitation Technique, you can still create an ice wall for protection?!"

Cha-cha-cha!

A chilling aura gathered, and a prosthetic limb formed from ice materialized. Two fingers formed a hand seal in front of her chest, and a cold, icy smile curled at the corner of Mizuki Ao's lips: "The Jinchuriki's body has accumulated sufficient Ice Release chakra. It's over..."

—Ice Release: Instant Freeze!

"Awoooooo!!" Yu Gao let out a painful roar. In just a few seconds, his body was frozen solid from the inside out. Crack! The tailed beast cloak on his body... turned into shattered ice crystals and fell to the ground!

Phew! !

The Ice Soul clone transformed into its Ice Phoenix form once more, grabbed Yu Gao, and flew into the sky!

"Hugao!!" Terumi Mei rushed forward.

Mizuki Ao said coldly, "It's best not to touch him. Right now, if he's even slightly touched by external force, he'll turn into a pile of ice shards..."

Tap! Mei Terumi stopped in her tracks and clenched her fist.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle!

Steam was rising from her delicate skin.

That's caused by using Boil Release to accelerate the blood and chakra in her body. Mei Terumi is a woman and doesn't have the same strong physique as Saikawa and Kan, so she usually doesn't use this technique!

That would shorten her lifespan and youth!

But there's no time to worry about that now; only in this way can we resist Mizuki Ao's ice-style power!

Mei Terumi charged toward Ao, her hands forming a hand seal!

"Ugh!!" But at that moment, Mizuki Ao suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed weakly to the ground.

“Spitting blood… How could this be? Her injuries shouldn’t be enough to make her vomit blood! Wait, that unusual color of blood…” Mei Terumi suddenly froze: “Could it be… that she originally had some kind of incurable disease!”

"Hmm, is my time... running out?" A wistful smile appeared on Qing's lips as she resolutely formed hand seals.

—Ice Release Secret Technique: Fleeting Beauty!

*Crackling sound!*

The ice spread outwards from her center, as if she were about to unleash her life to its fullest potential!

On the other side of the battlefield.

Might Guy has fallen. He used all his strength from the Gate of Shock without holding back, but he still lost...

"Huff, huff..." Tian Dou adjusted his disordered breathing in front of Kai. A gust of cold air swept by, and he looked back in a certain direction, his expression becoming solemn.

"Konoha's Azure Beast, your spirit will not falter. I look forward to our rematch someday! Now, I must go to my comrades!"

"Burning!" Tian Dou left these words to Kai, his body engulfed in flames, and rushed towards Qing's battlefield!

Chapter 485 The Language of Frozen Flowers!

The entire island was frozen by Ao's ninjutsu.

In the sky, Choji Akimichi spread his butterfly wings, his super-expanded hands holding Shikamaru and Ino.

A belt was wrapped around his waist, and Zabuza was holding onto the other end, leaving him hanging in mid-air!

At the critical moment, Choji Akimichi took the secret medicine Chili Pepper Pill, which unleashed his butterfly wings and unlocked his potential!

"Phew, looks like we're saved..." Shikamaru breathed a sigh of relief.

"Choji, you were so reliable this time!" Ino said, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Huff, huff, huff..." Mei Terumi was covered in scorching steam as she squatted in front of Ao. The only place on the entire land where she stood was not frozen!

She almost exhausted all her chakra to escape from Qing's ice release technique!

Mizuki Ao's hands, which had been forming a hand seal in front of her chest, parted and fell limply to her sides. *Crack!* The prosthetic limb made of ice shattered, blue blood dripping onto her feet…

Terumi Mei knew that Ao was terminally ill, and that was her final secret technique!

Mei Terumi asked, "Ao... you said earlier that you didn't hate Kirigakure, so why did you join Akatsuki and fight for them to this extent?"

"In order to find... the meaning of my existence," Qing said.
