Chapter Seventy-Four: Delay
The Three Tails woke up.
Separated between a group of ninjas and Jiraiya, even though he is a tailed beast, the three tails are not stupid people with no intelligence at all.
In fact, the IQ of the tailed beast is much higher than that of the average human.
The reason why in most states, the tailed beasts that people see are irritable and irrational. Compared to the sheer strength of the Tailed Beasts, humans were too weak.
Just as humans don't pay attention to what ants are doing most of the time, tailed beasts are no different.
This time, however, it was different.
On one side are Jiraiya, who has entered the immortal mode, and the two frog immortals standing on his shoulders. On the other side were a couple of ninjas who had just knocked him unconscious. Each of them has the power to suppress the Tailed Beast. In particular, one of them had an inexplicable chakra on his body, which frightened Mitsuo.
Mitsuo, who came to his senses, didn't move, and Shikamaru and Jiraiya didn't make any extra movements.
Mitsuo's eyes glanced to the sides, making sure that the ninjas wouldn't move for a short time, so he chose to dive slowly underwater, without any extra movements, until his huge body was completely submerged in the water, leaving behind a series of bubbles.
"The tailed beast ran away?"
This doubt quietly crept into the hearts of a group of Konoha ninjas. They had never seen such a strange thing, and for a moment, the ninjas of Konoha began to cheer.
"Worthy of being a Jiraiya-sama, does he have the strength to make the tailed beast flee from the wind?"
I don't know which hot-blooded fool said this, and the Konoha ninjas present cheered, as if the trophy of victory was already in their hands.
Unlike the many Konoha ninjas, Jiraiya is exceptionally calm at the moment.
Shikamaru's projection is not far from him, but the color is mottled like an old-fashioned TV set, which makes it difficult to see. Jiraiya never underestimated any ninja in front of him, even though he had just achieved an overwhelming advantage.
In the state of immortal mode, Jiraiya's perception is particularly keen. But I still can't detect the origin of the ninja who was psychic just now?
Such a strange method has never been encountered even by the long-standing self. For a while, he didn't dare to rush in.
"Little Jiraiya, the chakra on that projection is very weird. And ......"
Speaking of this, the toad groaned deeply.
There may be a war in the near future, and no information can be ignored. Zhima didn't have such patience as Fukasaku, and shouted: "The child is his father, and what? ”
"I don't know if it's an illusion, although it's just a little bit, but that projection seems to be able to absorb the natural energy around it."
"Absorb natural energy?"
Both Jiraiya and Shima had a look of surprise on their faces. They had all felt the violent nature of natural energy, and it was extremely difficult to condense the immortal chakra. Even in Miaomu Mountain, there are countless toads that have been petrified due to the failure of cultivating immortal arts, let alone humans? And the other party seems to be just a projection of the ontology, which is completely beyond the cognition of one person and two toads present.
"Daddy, are you dazzled?"
Shima said incredulously.
Fukasaku's pair of frog eyes widened in vain, and he said loudly: "There will be no mistake, the other party's projection is unstable, but it is indeed absorbing natural energy." No, to be precise, he wasn't absorbing natural energy, but using natural energy to reconcile and stabilize the weirdly unstable chakra in his body. ”
Jiraiya took a deep breath, whether it was him or the toad clan of Miaomu Mountain, they were all struggling to reconcile and absorb the natural energy that entered their bodies, and even fell short most of the time. And that eerie projection is the opposite.
No matter how incredible Fukasaku's words sounded to him, he still chose to believe it.
"Wake up that little imp on the ground, there's not much time left for him to sleep right now."
Shima nodded, and a mouthful of water sprayed out, the amount of water was like a waterfall, and it immediately woke up the Uchiha Obito.
"Ahh
The Uchiha Obito sneezed and seemed to choke on water, and snorted vigorously before waking up.
The target is a strange-looking uncle and two toads, and Uchiha Obito looks ignorant.
"Who are you?"
"Little ghost, now is not the time to say this, will you be able to do it? Take the girl and cover the ninja of Konoha to withdraw. Fukasaku understood the meaning of Jiraiya's words, knowing that the next battle would be brutal and abnormal.
"Toads can talk?"
It's just that the thick nerves of Uchiha Obito can't understand the sense of urgency in Fukasaku Immortal's words at all, and he still complains to himself.
"Your name is Obito, isn't it? Kakashi was okay and was saved by me. You've already started Susanoo, but the next battle isn't what you can participate in right now. With the girl and the rest of the people, and by the way, the two ninjas who also had the fog shinobi, immediately returned to Konoha and told the old man the information here. This is the task I gave you. ”
"Who are you?"
"Jiraiya!"
Jiraiya had just said his name, and Uchiha Obito seemed to understand something and nodded.
"Don't worry, I'll take them back safely."
Jiraiya's eyes were always on Shikamaru's movements in front of him, and after Obito left, he could finally let go of his hands and feet.
"I'm going, it's going to be desperate!"
Jiraiya is extremely serious at the moment, looking at Jiraiya in such a state, Shikamaru is also helpless.
His body is not here, and he can't use much magic just by relying on this projection. And the four ninjas of Akatsuki have a hard time dealing with Jiraiya in this state.
"Retreat!"
So, Shikamaru decisively issued an order.
"But my lord!"
"Mio has already fled. It's not far from the sea, and as long as Mio dives into the sea, no ninja will be able to catch it. Although we didn't catch the three tails, as long as we made sure that they couldn't catch them either, it was already a victory. ”
"Let's go!"
According to the figure that Jiraiya attacked, Shikamaru let out a quick shout.
Konoha's ninjas have all disappeared from view, and the four members of Akatsuki are also far away. On the battlefield, only Shikamaru's projection and Jiraiya remained.
Shikamaru's hands were sealed, and a huge prison door was channeled.
I've never seen such a strange gate, and I don't know whether to go in or back for a while.
The dark shadows are entangled, and the simple and lawless door slowly opens, and behind the door seems to be a dark abyss, quiet and cold.
"Let's go, little self!"
Fukasaku shouted. Because he could already feel that behind that gate, there was a huge chakra rushing out of its restraints.
The sky seemed to turn crimson, and as the huge chakra approached the prison door, the whole world seemed to be surrounded by flames, and the temperature around Jiraiya rose sharply.
The head of a demon cat desperately tried to break free from behind the prison door, hideous and terrifying, and let out a huge roar.
"That's the second tail?"
"Little Zilai, I can't hesitate any longer. Our channeling time is running out. ”
Jiraiya was about to use reverse spiritism to retreat, but the door slowly closed. With the desperate roar of the demon cat, everything returned to peace.
And in front of Jiraiya, Shikamaru's projection and Akatsuki's ninja have all disappeared.
"Did you scare them?"
Because of the delay in the projection, Yunokuni, Shikamaru, who was soaking in the hot spring, opened his eyes, but he couldn't determine the state over there, and muttered.
