Douluo: I have too many clones

Chapter 819 The Art of Seduction
"Qiang!"

A crisp clang of metal clashing suddenly resounded throughout the arena as Le Zhengyu's Angelic Sword, imbued with a blazing holy aura, slashed precisely across Naruto's chest.

The trail left by the silvery-white blade as it sliced ​​through the air had not yet completely dissipated when a victorious smile appeared on Yue Zhengyu's lips—with the sharpness and divine power of the Angelic Holy Sword, this strike was enough to render any opponent incapable of fighting.

"boom!"

However, the expected sensation of flesh being torn apart did not come; instead, a sudden burst of white smoke appeared.

The figure of Naruto, who had been hit, turned into countless tiny specks of light as the white smoke dissipated, completely annihilated like dandelion seeds scattered by the wind.

"Oh no, it's a clone! I've been tricked!"

Le Zhengyu's pupils suddenly contracted, and a layer of cold sweat instantly seeped out from his back.

Years of combat experience honed his instincts, allowing him to react in a fraction of a second—from Naruto's constant stream of clones created at the start of the match, to the guerrilla tactics deliberately leading the battle into chaos, and then to the seemingly flawed advance just now…

Everything was a carefully designed trap. The clones that drained his soul power, the feints that distracted his vision, and even the momentary stiffness when he was struck by the holy sword were all preparations to make him believe that "this is the real body."

"drink!"

A furious shout came from above, the voice filled with undisguised fighting spirit.

Le Zhengyu looked up abruptly and saw the light and shadow in mid-air distort, and nine figures exactly like the "Naruto" who had just been defeated appeared at the same time, like nine precisely positioned stars, floating in various directions above his back.

Each Naruto's right arm muscles bulged, and a shuriken with a flowing, colorful halo condensed in his palm.

Some shuriken were wrapped in crimson lava, others in boiling steam, and still others in reddish energy that danced like flames, with black patterns occasionally flashing by.

"Senjutsu: Super Tailed Beast Ball Rasenshuriken!"

The nine Narutos shouted in unison, their voices converging in mid-air to create an invisible pressure that seemed to freeze the air in the arena. As their voices fell, they simultaneously released their right hands from the shuriken they were holding.

Nine spiral shuriken, each possessing a different attribute, seemed to come alive, whistling down from nine completely different angles with a sharp whistling sound.

The trajectories these shuriken traced in the air appeared chaotic, yet they cleverly formed a perfect spherical encirclement as they fell.

Whether it was the space to leap upwards or the gaps to dodge to the left or right, all of these nine attacks, which contained destructive power, were completely sealed off, as if an airtight energy net had been woven above Le Zhengyu's head.

"boom--"

The deafening explosion, like a thunderclap in the sky, instantly drowned out all the noise inside the stadium.

The nine Super Tailed Beast Ball Rasenshuriken detonated simultaneously upon contact with Yue Zhengyu's body, unleashing countless colorful energy shockwaves that spread, collided, and annihilated wildly in all directions like raging dragons breaking free of their restraints.

A terrifying energy storm instantly formed a giant sphere of light with a diameter of over ten meters, centered on the point of explosion.

The air around the sphere of light was instantly ignited, forming a visible ripple of heat that caused the special protective layer on the arena to buzz as if it might collapse at any moment.

Even the smoke below, caused by the dissipation of the shadow clones, was dispersed by this massive energy storm.

Commentator Effie's hands, gripping the microphone tightly, trembled slightly, her face filled with disbelief and astonishment. She instinctively raised her voice, a barely perceptible tremor in her clear tone:

"Zheng Yu was hit directly by Naruto's full-force attack! My God! We can see that the entire arena is enveloped by this unprecedented energy. Such a fierce attack... Is this match going to end like this?"

Just then, among the many little angels on the arena below, a figure suddenly enlarged and turned into the exact same appearance as Yue Zhengyu.

Aifei's voice was somewhat excited: "My God, Zheng Yu has successfully escaped. I wonder what methods he used. However, judging from the situation on the spot, although he luckily avoided Naruto's killing move, his own condition is obviously not optimistic."

"Hoo~"

On the arena, Le Zhengyu's face was pale, and even his breathing was rapid. His thrilling escape just now was actually due to him using his Martial Soul True Body as a trump card.

The true form of the Holy Angel is renowned as the "Holy Immortal." As long as there is a wisp of holy light around him, he can use it to reshape his form and avoid fatal damage. Even the faintest ray of light can become a medium for him to transfer his body.

But as Effie said, although he dodged the Sage Art: Super Tailed Beast Ball Rasenshuriken, he also paid a heavy price—70% of his soul power was instantly exhausted.

The energy storm, composed of nine interwoven attributes, formed a black hole-like gravitational field the moment it exploded. Its tearing force was enough to rip space apart, and trying to break free from it was like dancing on a knife's edge.

"Cough cough..." Yue Zhengyu raised his hand to wipe away the blood that had spilled from the corner of his mouth, a trace of lingering fear flashing between his brows.

Fortunately, he did not dare to be careless in the slightest. If he had faced that attack directly without activating his Martial Soul True Body, he would probably have been severely injured even if he hadn't died.

Even so, the aftershocks of Sage Art: Super Tailed Beast Ball Rasenshuriken still displaced his internal organs, and internal injuries had already taken shape.

"Damn it, this time we're really going to be in deep trouble."

Looking at the densely packed Naruto clones on the arena, almost covering every inch of space, and the nine special clones floating in mid-air with piercing eyes, Le Zhengyu finally truly understood the trickiness of this self-created soul skill.

These clones appear fragile and would disintegrate at the slightest touch, but the aura they exude is exactly the same as the original body. Even with his powerful mental strength, he could not distinguish between them. This predicament was enough to leave any strong person helpless.

What puzzled him even more was that Naruto must have consumed an astonishing amount of soul power to summon such a large number of clones, yet the opponent's aura remained stable. Could this be his ninth ability—an unbelievable regenerative ability?
"You're really amazing!" The nine Naruto clones descended slowly from the sky. One of them gave Yue Zhengyu a thumbs up, his smile bright and sincere. "I admire your ability to escape in that situation."

Le Zhengyu was slightly taken aback. Seeing that there was no mockery in the other person's eyes, his tense lips softened a little, and he replied, "Likewise, your moves are equally amazing."

Naruto's smile remained unchanged, but his hands had already quietly formed hand seals: "Next, I'm going to use my own original technique. Speaking of which, this technique takes much longer to practice than the Rasengan, so you'd better be on your toes."

Le Zhengyu's heart skipped a beat. He had just personally experienced the power of the Rasengan—what appeared to be just a ball of light condensed from soul power, after being imbued with multiple attributes by the opponent, unleashed a destructive force that was simply terrifying.

Now the other party claims to have a secret move that has been practiced for a longer time, and even gave a special reminder. Could it be that its power has reached the point where a slight mistake could lead to death?

"bring it on!"

Le Zhengyu's fighting spirit reignited, his eighth spirit ring suddenly lit up, and he assumed a defensive stance, signaling that his opponent could make a move.

The conversation between the two was amplified and carried throughout the arena via a soul-guided amplification device. The spectators in the stands instantly held their breath, countless eyes focused on the center of the arena, and no one dared to breathe loudly. Around the arena, several titled Douluo-level referees had also quietly set up protective barriers, ready to deal with any possible danger.

"change!"

Naruto let out a low shout, his hand seals suddenly accelerating as he charged towards Yue Zhengyu. Just five meters away from his opponent, a thick cloud of white smoke suddenly erupted from his body, instantly enveloping him.

"They're here!" Le Zhengyu subconsciously swallowed, his mental power rising to its peak, sweeping towards the depths of the white smoke like a searchlight, ready for battle.

"Seduction Techniques: Harem Techniques!"

As Naruto shouted clearly, the white smoke receded rapidly like a tide.

The next moment, a dozen blonde, blue-eyed women suddenly appeared on the stage—they were dressed scantily, with only a hazy white smoke covering their private parts. Their figures were graceful, and their eyes were filled with a captivating charm. They all cast seductive glances at Le Zhengyu.

"Uh……"

Le Zhengyu had never seen such a scene before. He was struck dumb, frozen in place, his gaze fixed on the women, and for a moment he forgot to react.

Although he is the eldest son of the Holy Angel family and occasionally acts frivolously, he is actually very disciplined in his private life and is still an innocent virgin.

At this moment, she was simultaneously locked onto by more than a dozen alluring gazes, and her throat felt dry, and her cheeks uncontrollably flushed.

Not only him, but the spectators in the stands and the referees around him were also stunned. The air in the stadium seemed to freeze at that moment.

"What... what kind of soul skill is this?" Aifei's voice came through the amplified soul tool, tinged with an undisguised stutter. She had been in the industry for many years and had commentated on countless thrilling battles, but at this moment she felt at a loss for words.

The camera panned across the arena, projecting Le Zhengyu's reddened ears and the blonde women in various poses onto the giant soul guide screen, causing another commotion in the stands.

"Mommy, why are those older girls wearing so little?" In the stands, a child with pigtails looked up with an innocent face and curiously tugged at his mother's sleeve.

"Shh—" The mother hurriedly reached out and covered the child's eyes, warning urgently, "Don't look, these are not things children should see."

After saying that, she turned and glared at her husband, who was also engrossed in watching. Anger instantly surged in her heart, and she reached out and pinched the soft flesh on her husband's waist. "Still looking!"

"Ouch!" the husband cried out in pain. Seeing his wife's eyebrows furrowed in anger, he quickly waved his hands and begged for mercy, "I won't look anymore, I won't look anymore, wife, I was wrong!"

"I'll let you off this time," the wife sneered. "Go home and kneel on durians to reflect on your actions!"

"No, honey!"

The husband's wails rang out from a corner of the stands, but were quickly drowned out by the similar sounds that rose and fell around him.

Some husbands were racking their brains to coax their angry wives, while some boyfriends were apologizing repeatedly under their girlfriends' angry glares. The originally tense and solemn arena suddenly became absurd and funny.

On the stage, Le Zhengyu was still in a daze when the blonde women approached him with light steps, their soft whispers brushing past his ears like a spring breeze.

He felt his mind go blank. The purifying power of the holy angel surged within him, yet he was unable to dispel the sudden panic.

Naruto stood behind the girls and saw Yue Zhengyu standing there dumbfounded. A sly smile flashed in his eyes.

This "Seduction Technique - Harem Technique" may not have direct lethality, but it can precisely break down the opponent's psychological defenses. It is especially effective against seemingly carefree but actually naive young masters like Yue Zhengyu.

"Accept!"

Naruto concentrated his soul power in his fist, then suddenly exerted force with his feet, his figure shooting out from the dissipating phantom of the woman like an arrow. A sharp left hook was aimed straight at Yue Zhengyu's face, the force of the punch was heavy and powerful, and it even faintly brought out the sound of air being cut.

Normally, given Yue Zhengyu's reaction speed and combat skills, even if this punch came suddenly, he would be able to react in the blink of an eye, either blocking, dodging, or even launching a counterattack.

But at this moment, he was still not completely free from the impact of the "Seduction Technique - Harem Technique" he had just experienced. His consciousness seemed to be bound by invisible shackles, and he was in a brief state of paralysis.

His mind was in chaos. The allure of those blonde women and the precepts of the Holy Angel Family intertwined and collided in his mind, making it impossible for him to sort out his thoughts clearly. His body was also as if nailed to the spot, unable to make any effective movements.

"Snapped!"

A dull thud echoed across the ring, clearly reaching the ears of every spectator. Naruto's unpretentious left hook landed squarely on Yue Zhengyu's face.

He showed no mercy this time. The immense force instantly pierced through Le Zhengyu's head, sending him flying backward like a kite with a broken string. He flew through the air in an arc, covering dozens of meters before crashing heavily onto the protective shield at the edge of the ring with a dull thud.

"puff--"

A mouthful of bright red blood suddenly spurted from Yue Zhengyu's mouth, splashing onto the clean arena, a stark and striking sight.

He had already suffered internal injuries from the aftershocks of the previous Sage Art: Super Tailed Beast Ball Rasenshuriken, and was only barely suppressing his injuries with the help of Divine Light. Naruto's punch at this moment was undoubtedly the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The shockwave contained in the punch traveled through his body and reached his internal organs, instantly breaking through the restraints of the divine light and causing the suppressed injuries within Yue Zhengyu's body to erupt completely.

A strong wave of dizziness washed over him. Le Zhengyu's body slumped to the ground, his eyes losing their usual sparkle, becoming unfocused and empty.

He struggled to lift his head, as if he wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, blood spilled from the corner of his lips. The next moment, his head suddenly tilted to the side, and he lost consciousness.

"Wow—"

A commotion erupted in the stands. No one had expected that this epic showdown, which was thought to be going to last a long time, would end in such a dramatic way.

The audience, who were just moments before in an uproar over the "harem technique," were now filled with shock and astonishment. Many of the viewers who supported Yue Zhengyu were even speechless with disbelief.

Aifei, who was in the commentary booth, was stunned for a moment before quickly regaining her composure and saying in a slightly hurried voice:
"Naruto... He seized the moment when Zheng Yu was distracted and delivered a powerful punch that sent his opponent flying dozens of meters! Zheng Yu has lost consciousness, it seems... the outcome of this match is already decided!"

The referees around the arena quickly stepped forward. One of the titled Douluo raised his hand and released a gentle soul power to support Le Zhengyu's body. Upon examination, he found that although Le Zhengyu was seriously injured, his life was not in danger, but he had fallen into a deep coma.

The other referee walked to the center of the ring, scanned the entire arena, and finally raised his right hand, pointing at Naruto who was still in a punching stance, and announced loudly: "By judgment, Zheng Yu is incapacitated. The winner of this match is Uzumaki Naruto!"
