Chapter 151: Friends
Seeing that Koharu, who had lost his life in the black flame, like a dead thing falling to the ground and continuing to burn, lost his breath of life in an instant, Mito Menyan's eyes showed a moment of trance and grief.
But such grief and trance quickly disappeared from his eyes, and this pain turned into a chilling killing intent, directed at Sasuke.
He pursed his lips and stared at Sasuke without saying a word, and the blood-stained ninja knife in his hand with several cracks was tightly held by him.
Sharp chakras covered it, further enhancing the sharpness and toughness of the ninja blade.
Immediately afterward, he launched a surprise attack on Sasuke.
The ninja knife in his hand was released like a sharp flash.
Sasuke, as before, was not to be outdone and faced Mito Menyan.
The impact poured into Kusanagi's sword and his arm caused Sasuke's body to sink subconsciously.
It's not that Mito's strength has suddenly increased a lot, it's that he's weaker now.
Chakra, stamina, are decreasing.
Although the natural energy is still sufficient, in such a battle, it can only barely level the opponent.
Therefore, even if there is less interference from Koharu, the situation on his side is urgent.
Without chakra, there is no way to deal with this group of people using natural energy alone.
On top of that, his pupil technique has been exposed.
The black flame in the left eye, and the right eye instantly enhance the range and destructive power of the black flame on the basis of specifying the expansion direction of the black flame.
It was precisely by relying on this trick that she was caught off guard and let her die under the burning of the black flame.
However, this ability is exposed, and it is possible to defeat Mito Menyan, but it is also possible to make Mito Menyan escape, making him waste Chakra for no reason.
If you can't kill Mito Menyan, then there's no point in killing as many Konoha ninjas as you want here.
Such an uncertain possibility, in the absence of chakra and physical strength, is an extremely risky move.
And what he wants is not this inaccuracy, not an estimate, not a possibility.
What he wants is to kill the other party with precision.
As long as it is not a 100% probability, even if it has a 99% success rate, at this time, Sasuke will not gamble.
Therefore, the plan to use the black flame to kill Mito Menyan was left behind by Sasuke in an instant.
I thought about many options, but the reality was just a few breaths of time passed.
The impact from the ninja knife is getting stronger and stronger, and on the contrary, his chakra and physical strength are wearing out.
On the one hand, he also has to maintain Susanoo and contain the other Konoha ninjas and prevent them from interfering, and the situation is quite unfavorable.
Under the continuous attacks of Mito Menyan's fierce storm at close range, Sasuke could only use the Kusanagi sword again and again to block the defense.
Then, Sasuke's eyes flickered, and the shadows along the ground reappeared.
Although there are not many Konoha ninjas who come here to support Mito Menyan, as long as they interfere with him at a critical moment, they can also play a huge role.
And he is now incapable of dealing with Konoha ninjas other than Mito Menyan.
There is not much chakra left, and every ounce must be applied to the blade, not wasted on inconsequential bugs.
The brain starts to calculate at a rapid pace.
Allowing Mito Menyan's ninja knife to leave shallow wounds on his body, his shirt and trousers were all stained with his own blood.
But these pains were nothing compared to the pain he had experienced in the past.
The red chakra eyes are extremely clear, and while dealing with the attack of Mito Menyan, he looks for everything that can be used on the battlefield in a slight posture.
In my ears, thunder roared.
Raindrops and silver threads fell on the earth.
The previous fire escape, as well as the sky-high heat of the eight-foot Qiong Hook Jade with high-temperature energy, began to play its due role.
Think about it carefully, among all his moves, the most chakra-saving, but extremely powerful move, is the only one.
It takes less than a thousandth of a second for a thunderbolt from the sky to fall.
However, with this trick, an introduction is required.
The sound of thunder, the sound of knives, the sound of fighting, the chaotic and sharp footsteps, the sound of the air being pierced by a powerful attack, as if all the sounds had disappeared in his ears, Sasuke's brain fell into extreme calm.
The more moments like this, the more he needs to be calm.
At this time, even a small mistake will ruin his plan.
Countless kunai and shuriken began to fly through the air.
Mito Menyan uses a ninja knife while summoning a ninja with a scroll, and shoots Sasuke as the target.
Sasuke figured out the strength of the other party, his body and sword skills are very strong, and he has a very high level of control over Shinobi. Coupled with Lao Lao's combat experience, once the ordinary Shangnin falls into the rhythm of the opponent, he will soon be defeated.
This is still the case that the other party is old and frail, and his energy and chakra are slightly decadent compared to when he was younger, otherwise, it should be more difficult to deal with.
As for whether the other party is hiding another move, Sasuke doesn't know.
Among the information of Orochimaru and Oni no Kuni, it is only known that the strength of the two advisors of Konoha is at least the elite level of the upper ninja, and their basic abilities are very strong, as for the killer moves, they have not been detected.
Kaleidoscope Sharingan has insight into the flight trajectory of Kunai and shuriken, and Sasuke fights and retreats, swinging the hidden weapon with the Kusanagi sword, and then moving with his body to dodge.
Even so, in some places, it is inevitable that they will be scratched by kunai and shuriken.
But this is nothing more than some insignificant injuries on him.
The medical charm was pasted on his body in advance, and the impact of this injury on him can be said to be negligible.
And Mito Menyan, who has been hitting continuously in one breath, also quickly judged Sasuke's state at this time.
- Didn't dodge all the hidden weapons, although he still maintained strong dynamic vision, his body speed and reflexes, in the absence of chakra and physical strength, began to decline.
As the battle continued, Mito found that his body was getting warmer and warmer, and the decadent remnants began to recall the bloody feeling of fighting with strong enemies in the past after a hearty battle.
With each of his next attacks, Sasuke began to gasp unnaturally.
But because of this, the ninja knife in his hand cracked and shattered again.
Without waiting for Sasuke to find the flaw, Mito Menyan sank his body while galloping, his right hand turned into an afterimage, and the new ninja knife that was slanted into the ground appeared in his hand again, becoming a sharp weapon he used to attack the enemy.
Inside the old man's body, there was a burly and majestic strength, and the powerful chakra that burst out collided with Sasuke's Kusanagi sword, causing the atmosphere to emit a piercing scream.
In this case, if you are not proficient in one-handed sealing, or if you don't have a ninja without a seal, you don't have time to use ninjutsu to catch your breath.
Sasuke is not among them.
All the plans in his head were laid out.
The empty left hand was used again, and the thunder that roared out of the air turned into a long snake twisting and circling in the void, the whole body was icy blue, and the electric light shone in the rain curtain, rushing towards Mito Menyan.
Mito Menyan's expression froze slightly, and he understood the power of this ninjutsu and began to dodge.
However, the razer turned sharply in one direction and rushed towards his body again.
As a last resort, the ninja knife in Mito Menyan's hand swung out a sharp flash and slashed at the thunder snake.
The thunder light exploded, causing the ninja knife in his hand to crack.
The electrophrenic light, which had a paralyzing nature, made a flaw appear in his body.
Sasuke's figure swept like a swift wind, and a shadow crossed in front of Mito Menyan's body, blocking Sasuke's way.
Who knows, Sasuke, who saw this scene, seemed to have expected it, the corners of his mouth cracked, and his body naturally turned sharply in the rain, swinging water droplets, and whistling towards Shikamaru's direction.
Oops, he's coming for me! Shikamaru understood this, his expression changed slightly, and in the face of Sasuke's powerful body and sword skills, the fate of being close to him can be imagined.
It's also an opportunity, though! Shikamaru's eyes flashed.
Although Sasuke's strength began to decline, the strength he still had was amazing. If this continues, there is likely to be a tug-of-war.
If you want to solve the other party as soon as possible, you have to take a risk.
With my ability, can I dodge? Shikamaru asked himself.
His physical skills are not strong, and the only thing he can use is shadows.
Immediately, such a cowardly idea was abandoned by him.
He finally got such an opportunity, Sasuke's Susanoo is being held back by the people of the roots, and this is the best opportunity to kill the other party.
Miss this opportunity, and there won't be another time.
How can you, who has decided to carry the darkness on your back, be afraid of death and stop here?
Thinking of this, Shikamaru no longer hesitated.
Quickly pulled out a projectile from his ninja bag and threw it at Sasuke.
Sasuke looked up slightly, and also saw this familiar projectile.
Laugh at!
Violent flashes of light appeared in front of the eyes.
The light and shadow that shine magnify the darkness.
Shadows weave like blades across the invisible ground.
Sasuke, who had already anticipated this scene, prepared to dodge in advance and jumped out of the range of the flash.
"Hmph, I wouldn't have fallen for the same trick!"
"Really?"
The sound of rapidly approaching footsteps made Sasuke turn around in astonishment.
Shikamaru's figure approached, flying a punch and slamming into his face.
Syllable!
Sasuke, who touched Shikamaru's punch with his palm, stepped back a few meters, and a silk thread pulled between his left hand and Shikamaru's right hand.
It was a sticky steel wire that was firmly attached to the palm of his left hand.
And the Kusanagi sword in his hand was thrown at the same time, and the thunder light wrapped around it spun like a blue disc, flying towards Shikamaru.
Shikamaru bent down, avoided the Kusanagi sword, and simultaneously completed the Indian style, using the steel wire as a connection, and used the shadow mimicry technique to control Sasuke's body.
Then, Shikamaru's face was calm, and when he wanted to change the Indian style and turn the shadow into a solid shadow blade to attack Sasuke, there was a whistling sound behind him.
Like a disc spinning up the Kusanagi sword, it turns back from the sky.
Boom!
Kusanagi's sword plunged straight into the earth, trembling and shivering, lightning flickering.
It came too suddenly, and Shikamaru had to roll out on its side, and the Indian style was interrupted along with it.
The moment the shadow mimicry technique was interrupted, Sasuke's body regained his freedom, and he took out kunai with his left hand, attached an electric light, and cut off the sticky steel wire.
The bright red in his eyes was dim, and only three magatama appeared.
The purple samurai who fought with a large number of Konoha ninjas in the distance lost their traces silently and melted into the air.
"Well done, Nara boy!"
There was such a sound in his ears, the swift footsteps, the figure galloping forward, through the cold rain curtain, the blade slashed through the atmosphere, exerted an aura like a guillotine, rushed from behind, and fell towards Sasuke's body.
All the actions were done in an instant, without the slightest hesitation.
seized Sasuke's momentary gap, and did not waste the wonderful fighter that Shikamaru had bought in exchange for his life, and slashed with one sword.
Thinking like this, Mito Menyan had already seen Sasuke's body that was about to be cut in two by himself.
It's time to stop this farce that belongs to the Uchiha.
Let's end it! He said in his heart.
The blade is unrelentingly swung.
However, the blood did not spurt out as expected.
Click!
Unleashed a dazzling blade, slashing at a hard object and shattering.
Mito Menyan's face was dull, and the rain slid down his cheeks.
Shikamaru opened his mouth wide and was speechless for a while.
The rest of the Konoha ninjas were even more unbearable, staring blankly at the sky and forgetting about the battle.
The terrifying thunder beast that stepped on the void reflected the heavens and the earth in a silvery white color, and began to roar towards the earth.
Around Sasuke's body, a purple skeleton appeared, enveloping his entire body.
Sasuke, who turned around at some point, had already maintained a posture of raising his palm to the sky, and with an indifferent and cold gaze, he landed on Mito Menyan, who was less than half a meter away from him.
The thunder burst into flames, like a holy brilliance that swept away all filth, and the boundless power of thunder spread across the world, targeting Sasuke and Mito Menyan, and ruthlessly fell from the sky into an aurora of thunder, shining the two of them with pale expressions.
The difference is that one looks excited, and the other looks dazed and at a loss.
Boom!
The dazzling thunder continued to expand, and the surrounding earth and ruins were swept away like dust.
Sasuke, who tumbled out of the light, covered in blood, slammed into a piece of ruins and stopped.
In the dust and smoke that dispersed, the corners of the broken and jet-black clothes slowly fell.
The figure of the old man disappeared, and the dust scattered scattered in the heavens and the earth.
The blood-stained palm pressed against the ground, allowing Sasuke's body to stand up, letting the wind and rain blow and stand still.
"Hahahahaha!"
Looking at the scene in front of him, Sasuke opened his mouth and laughed.
Laughter, mixed with joy and inexplicable sourness, reverberates here.
"Ahem!"
Before the laughter could last, Sasuke began to cough violently, spitting out blood, and his face turned pale as if he had pulled the wound.
"Next, there's one last ...... left"
The cold killing intent was like pouring a basin of cold water on his head, making him subconsciously shake his body, jump backwards, and step on the broken wall.
Several slender shadow blades pierced through the air, skimming past his previous positions.
If he had hesitated for half a minute, his body would have been pierced to death by these shadow blades.
The surrounding Konoha ninjas also followed one after another, and Sasuke raised his eyebrows and rushed straight towards the crowd.
The root ninjas who besieged Susanoh before also emerged.
The difference is that there are only two or three of these root ninjas left, and judging from the half-crippled tailed beast coats on their bodies, they were not lightly tossed by Susa Nenghu before.
The Konoha ninjas who came up from the siege were all injured and panting.
Shikamaru maintained the shadow mimicry technique with these Konoha ninjas to flank Sasuke, and began to mobilize his body himself, rushing forward with his bare hands, constantly switching between physical and ninjutsu.
The state of Sasuke's powerful crossbow can be seen very clearly by anyone.
Now is not the time to grieve the victims.
There was a roar of thunder and explosions.
A flash of light came out of Shikamaru's mind, and his body trembled with some kind of terror.
"It's not good, get back!"
However, in such a fierce battle, his shouting was meaningless.
Thunder drowned out his voice.
Standing in the crowd, Sasuke, covered in blood, had a cruel smile drawn on the corner of his mouth.
Raise your palms to the sky.
Purple skeletal shadows appeared around the body.
The Konoha ninja who came up from the siege realized that something was wrong, and the sky was thundering and lightning, and the rain was even more rapid and violent.
The rain splashed and soaked everyone's clothes.
A biting chill resurfaced in everyone's hearts along with the thunder beast that trampled on the void.
There is uncertainty between heaven and earth.
As the thunder rushed to the earth, it finally stabilized, and the light shone on the four fields, engulfing Sasuke and the Konoha ninja.
Shikamaru also rolled out in the shockwave, his right arm rolling, and his flesh and bones were cut by sharp stone shards.
The forehead was also scratched, and blood flowed into the eyes, making the eyes blood-red.
The light and smoke dispersed.
Reflecting the Konoha ninja who fell to the ground, Sasuke sat there panting, the purple skeleton disappeared, his eyes were black and white, and he withdrew from the state of writing wheels.
Such a picture is reflected in Shikamaru's eyes.
Sadness, pain, flashed in his eyes.
Then he made up his mind, picked up the kunai with his left hand, gritted his teeth desperately, and endured the pain of tearing the bones of his whole body that were almost shattered by the previous shock wave, and rushed towards Sasuke.
"Sasuke !!"
As if hearing this voice, Sasuke raised his head, and in his black and white eyes, Shikamaru held the figure of kunai in his hand, and slowly stood up from the ground, waiting for him to arrive.
The pain, complexity, and determination in the other party's eyes are so distinct.
Carrying a heavy shackle, the ninja who moved forward, Shikamaru at this time, is very much like himself.
With a bond to the past, but in order to move on, he had to cut it off himself.
Everyone is holding their own stance, their will, and guarding what they want to protect, to fight, to fight.
Fight!
Fight!
Fight!
The life of a ninja seems to have nothing left but fighting.
Sasuke remembered that these were the words left by the former leader of the rain hide, Sanshoyu Hanzo, before he died, and they were recorded by Orochimaru.
Laugh at!
The cold of Kunai was only a fraction of a millimeter away from Sasuke's neck.
The cold light of the blade passed through Shikamaru's chest first.
The blade went straight into Sasuke's feet, and with a sharp blade, it cut through the wind and rain, and stood tall.
Kusanagi sword.
Sasuke's right hand bent slightly, and the last available chakra disappeared.
The blood that spilled from Shikamaru's chest splattered on Sasuke's face, and his clothes shook a little, and his chin rested on Sasuke's shoulders and fell into Sasuke's arms.
"Sa...... Help ......"
muttered such words.
Shikamaru's eyes glazed over as he stared ahead, the streets in ruins in front of him getting darker and darker.
The cold water squeezed in like a tide, eroding his will to struggle.
Sasuke pushed Shikamaru's body away with a blank face, letting him fall to the side, ignoring him.
It's as if it's just air.
He opened his mouth slightly, mixed with the smell of rain or blood, and slowly pulled out the Kusanagi sword that was stuck directly into the ground, and put it into the sheath in a standard posture.
"I've given you a chance to leave, and all those who stand in my way for revenge will die."
Leaving this unincomprehensible sentence, Sasuke ignored everything that happened here like a mustard, and glanced at the crowd in the ruins in the distance who had not yet completely evacuated, and the crying seemed to be louder.
However, the man who scolded him, the woman and the child who were crying, had nothing to do with him.
He just wants revenge.
Only revenge is needed.
His life is meaningless until his revenge is not complete.
The purpose of his life now is to complete revenge.
So, Sasuke wiped the blood from his face, withdrew his gaze, and took a firm step in a certain direction.
……
The rain encroached on the world, and it fell with a bang.
Naruto, who rushed here as fast as he could, stared blankly at this once prosperous street, which had become nothing at this time, and countless Konoha ninjas fell in it.
Farther through the ruins, the immobile crowd erupted in wailing and wailing.
Every scene made Naruto stop in shock.
Until he saw the familiar figure on a relatively flat platform, his pupils instantly constricted.
"Shikamaru!"
Faster than the voice, it was his subconscious body reaction that rushed to Shikamaru's side and knelt down on his knees for the first time.
Naruto...... Naruto...... Be...... Naruto...... ......"
A trembling and weak voice, almost inaudible.
Shikamaru, who couldn't see anything in front of him, raised his palms tremblingly, like a blind man touching an elephant, and could only rely on his senses to grope for the source of the sound in his ears.
He touched Naruto's face as if he felt reassured, and his breathing miraculously began to steady.
The plaster and blood of the palms stained it.
"Hug ...... I'm sorry...... I've let you down...... Really...... What am I...... Can't do it...... Sasuke, he's ...... now."
Shikamaru's words were intermittent, and just by speaking, he had used all his strength.
"Shikamaru, stop talking, I'll treat you now-"
Naruto stopped Shikamaru from making further moves, his current condition was very critical, the chest was pierced, the injury was extremely serious, and if he didn't perform surgery in time, unknown danger could occur at any time.
As soon as he clasped his hands together, the 'immortal' character spell that shone with golden light flew out of his body.
A huge enchantment begins.
I seal it up in the surrounding earth.
On the wall of the barrier on each side, there is a golden word 'immortal' inscribed, and countless illusory runes flow on it, which looks extremely mysterious.
The green light that represents life shines on everything in the barrier, and at the same time sweeps away the wind and rain in the outside world, so that the injured in the barrier are not attacked.
The wounded man, who was not dead and had a weak heartbeat, began to slowly regain his life.
But those Konoha ninjas who completely lost their heartbeat, Naruto was silent.
Such a large number of dead people has already surpassed the ability of the immortal talisman.
He can only try his best to let those who are not dead get the miracle of being rescued.
- Naruto......
Watergate's words of comfort had not yet been spoken.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm going to do next."
Naruto put his hands behind his head and re-fastened the strap on his forehead.
The turquoise pupils, as sharp as sharp blades, slashed into the void.
"Feel Sasuke's position for me, Daddy!"
