Cos Wuzan, was stabbed ten times by Heize at the beginning

The dark shadows of several jagged rocks appeared and disappeared in the mist.

I rubbed my eyes every day.

"Those islands seem to be floating in the air!"

He said every day.

Hinata stood beside her, activated her Byakugan, and her vision was also obstructed.

She frowned slightly, opened her eyes, and gazed at the distant island.

"These islands, too, cannot be observed with contempt!"

She turned to the god of bliss and spoke.

Even the castle they were in seemed to be located on an island.

The island is suspended high in the center of this sea of ​​fog.

Is the surface of the moon covered with oceans and islands?

Kiba Inuzuka rubbed Akamaru's head and asked a sincere question.

Rei Amamiya: "..."

This silly kid doesn't look very smart.

Akamaru let out a low whimper.

Nara Shikamaru frowned, his sharp eyes scanning his surroundings as he analyzed, "The existence of such an environment inside the moon, combined with the legends of the Otsutsuki clan, is not entirely impossible."

Neji walked towards the only wooden door in the room.

The white eye pierced through the wooden door; although the field of vision was limited, it could still detect that the corridor outside was empty.

"It's safe outside for now."

Neji said in a low voice, then reached out and slowly pushed open the door.

The wooden door made no sound at all.

The moment the crack appeared in the door.

Several blindingly bright red energy cannons shot out from outside the door.

Its speed was astonishing, heading straight for Hyuga Neji, who was in the most immediate danger.

"careful!"

Hinata gasped in surprise.

Almost the instant the cannonballs lit up, Neji's body reacted.

"Return to Heaven!"

Neji's body began to spin rapidly like a top.

Chakra surged from his acupoints, instantly forming a blue-white chakra shield.

The shells slammed violently into the absolute defenses of Kaiten, producing a series of muffled explosions.

The glint of the scattered shells briefly illuminated the dim corridor.

As the light faded, Neji stood firmly, his cold gaze sweeping across the distance.

A dozen or so figures had appeared in the corridor outside the door.

They were completely shrouded in large cloaks, their faces hidden in the deep shadows of the hoods, not even their eyes were visible.

"enemy!"

Naruto shouted, and golden Nine-Tails chakra surged from his body.

"Wait, Naruto."

Sasuke reached out and stopped the impulsive Naruto.

He calmly observed the figures surging towards Neji.

"Neji Hyuga can handle it."

The cloaked figures moved in perfect unison, almost completely obscuring Neji's figure.

Neji flashed into the enemy ranks, his palms flashing and creating sharp, piercing sounds.

Naruto only saw a series of afterimages flash before his eyes, and by the time he reacted, Neji was already standing firmly in place.

A dozen or so cloaked figures lay sprawled on the ground, incapacitated, like broken dolls.

"Well done, Neji!"

Xiao Li excitedly waved his fist.

It's so convenient not having to do anything yourself. Rei Amamiya stepped over the puppet on the ground, walked out of the room, and came to the spacious corridor.

The corridor was long and stretched forward, ending at a spiral staircase leading downwards.

The entire space resembled a maze, exuding an eerie and dreamlike atmosphere.

Before Shikamaru could even crouch down to check on the fallen figures, a more rapid series of footsteps came from the depths of the stairs below.

dah, dah, dah, dah...

The footsteps were synchronized, with a mechanical rhythm.

It was getting closer and closer, louder and louder.

It was as if a massive army was swarming up from the lower levels of the castle.

"There are a lot of them."

Hinata activated her Byakugan.

Countless tiny parasites flew out of Shino's body, forming a low, dark cloud around him.

"Prepare to meet the enemy."

Chapter 648 The Master Has Been Waiting for a Long Time!!!

Choji Akimichi let out a low growl and activated his Body Expansion Technique.

His massive body stood like a fortress at the forefront, and he swung his equally enlarged ninja tools at the oncoming cloaked figure.

Tenten leaped up and appeared above Choji Akimichi's head. Scrolls unfurled around her, and countless senbon scrolls poured down the stairs like a torrential rain.

Nara Shikamaru's shadow, like a serpent, clung to the ground and walls, silently spreading out and controlling the cloaked figures approaching them.

Yamanaka Ino closed her eyes and focused her mind, aiming her hands at the cloaked figure controlled by Shikamaru.

She suddenly opened her eyes, her expression changing slightly: "No...no thought activity whatsoever! They are not living beings!"

The number of cloaked figures was so great that they almost filled the entire field of vision.

They raised their hands, and beams of blazing white energy shot from their palms toward Amamiya Rei and the others like a sudden downpour.

"Human Bomber!"

Choji Akimichi roared, his massive body curling into a ball, and with an unparalleled momentum, he crushed through the crowd, instantly sending countless cloaked figures flying and crushing their bodies.

"Tooth-to-teeth!"

Kiba Inuzuka and Akamaru transformed into two violent tornadoes, plunging into the enemy ranks, leaving fragments of cloaks and severed limbs flying everywhere they went.

"Get out of my way!"

Sakura Haruno raised her fist and slammed it into the ground. The immense force made the entire castle seem to tremble.

The large cracks spread at a visible speed, and the cloaked figure reached out to Sakura.

"Go down."

Sakura stared coldly at the cloaked figure who was reaching out to her.

Just as the cloaked figure's hand was about to touch Sakura, the stairs beneath them shattered completely.

bang——

A loud bang.

Countless cloaked figures fell along with the rubble on the stairs.

The stones slammed down on them.

Naruto wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Haha, haha, Sakura is getting scarier and scarier!"

Upon hearing Naruto's words, Sakura turned her head and stared coldly at Naruto.

Naruto: "...Just kidding, how could Sakura possibly be a super-strong woman?"

After saying that, Naruto covered his mouth guiltily.

Sakura's cold face suddenly broke into a genuine smile: "Actually, I quite like the nickname 'Super Strong Girl'! Just like the 'Perverted Guy' nickname I gave you!"

Naruto: "..."

Hinata pursed her lips, forcibly suppressing the urge to curl her lips upward.

Sakura destroyed the stairs, so they simply jumped down from there and landed steadily on the flat ground of the next floor.

Naruto frowned as he looked at the "corpses" scattered all over the ground.

it's wired!

It's really not human!

Nara Shikamaru remained vigilant. He walked to the nearest relatively intact cloaked "corpse" and crouched down.

He stretched out his gloved hand and carefully used the kunai in his hand to lift the wide, dark gray cloak.

The person beneath the cloak was not the one they had expected.

It is not made of flesh and blood.

What came into view was a joint made of wood and metal, and a face completely covered by a hood, without any features.

"This is……"

Shikamaru's pupils contracted slightly, his tone carrying a hint of understanding, yet also a deeper sense of bewilderment: "A puppet?"

However, they did not discover the chakra threads controlling the puppet during the battle!

Is it possible for a puppet to move freely without chakra threads?

Naruto and the others heard Shikamaru's voice and gathered around.

Upon seeing the true face beneath the cloak, their faces showed surprise.

"Who is controlling them? Is it someone from the Otsutsuki clan?"

Ino guessed.

Only members of the Otsutsuki clan possess the ability to control puppets without chakra threads!

Shikamaru stood up, brushed off imaginary dust from his hands, and his gaze involuntarily drifted toward the God of Elysium behind him.

The God of Bliss seemed unsurprised by all of this.

It was as if everything that happened was exactly what he expected.

"That's incredible!"

Tian Tian squatted to the side and gently tapped a broken piece of puppet arm with his finger, producing a dull thud.

I've been itching to assemble these puppets every day.

She looked up at everyone and, seeing that no one was paying attention to her in the corner, took out the sealing scroll.

"day by day."

A voice came from behind.

Tenten froze, a smile more like a grimace appearing on her face: "Neji..."

Neji stared at her and slowly shook his head.

Tian Tian pouted and reluctantly stood up.
