Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 513 Bad Memories

"This guy is really powerful now."

"Is this the powerful enemy that the leader has been emphasizing not to provoke?"

Jianchuan Ju didn't use any ninjutsu at all, and only relied on his speed and fists to take care of Scorpion's ten puppets.

When seen by Orochimaru and Sasori, the thoughts of these two powerful men in the ninja world began to churn uncontrollably.

However, even though Jianchuan Ju showed a strength that shocked the two of them.

But facing him coming towards him, Scorpion of the Red Sand didn't seem to be worried about his own safety at all.

This scene, seen by Jianchuan Ju, made him more certain of his guess.

With a slight wave of his fingers, he knocked Scorpion away casually, and controlled it with chakra threads, shooting a kunai at him from behind.

Jianchuan Ju stood in front of the other person with a calm expression.

"In this situation, you haven't given up yet?"

Looking at the Scorpion of the Red Sand in front of him, there was a hint of shock in his eyes, but no fear on his face.

Jianchuan Ju raised his right hand and suddenly clenched his fist slightly.

"White Escape*Icicle Swallow"

next moment.

Four tiny ice cones with pure white flames on their tips instantly condensed beside Jianchuan Ju.

As soon as the ice cone appeared, it shot out like a sharp arrow without giving the scorpion any chance to resist.

In the blink of an eye, four ice cones pierced into the scorpion's arms and legs respectively.

At the same time, the force of the flying ice cone drove the scorpion back rapidly, mercilessly nailing it to the cliff behind it.

The pure white flames spread rapidly with the four ice cones as the center.

When Jianchuan Ju opened his palms, the flames dissipated.

Four cone-shaped blocks of solid ice have frozen the Red Sand Scorpion firmly on the cold stone wall, leaving it no room for movement.

"Ju, what's this?"

Before Mei Terumi could inquire about the situation in detail, her pupils suddenly contracted.

The Red Sand Scorpion, who was supposed to have been completely controlled by Jianchuan Ju, now had a flash of light and shadow on his body.

In the blink of an eye, the person who originally stood in the other person's place had become a completely different person.

The man had a emaciated body, a distorted expression, and his head drooped limply.

It was obviously just a completely dead body.

He reached out to stop Mei Terumi who had taken out her kunai and was on guard.

Jianchuan Ju looked at the ordinary-looking black-haired corpse and recited slowly.

"Elephant Turning Technique!"

Orochimaru, who was still fighting with the berserk Zabuza in the distance, let out a hoarse and strange laugh after hearing the voice of Jianchuan Tachibana.

"Haha, the Mizukage-sama can actually recognize this kind of ninjutsu, he is really knowledgeable~"

In such a fierce battle, he still had the energy to pay attention to this side and speak.

Obviously, Zabuza did not bring much pressure to Orochimaru at this moment.

Listening to Orochimaru's slightly teasing words, Jianchuan Tachibana did not say anything, but just continued to look at the other party calmly.

This indifferent look actually made Orochimaru, who was originally preparing to respond and stop fighting to express his intention, at a loss for how to continue the conversation for a moment.

Instead, Mei Terumi, who was still somewhat confused, asked in a low voice.

"Ju, what is the art of elephant transformation?" Facing Zumei Mei's question, Jianchuan Ju did not choose to hide it.

His eyes were still fixed on Orochimaru who was still fighting with Zabuza, but he spoke slowly.

"A ninjutsu that is exclusive to the Rinnegan. It can use a living person as a sacrifice, and allocate part of another strong person's chakra to this sacrifice, so that the strong person's consciousness and all abilities including bloodline limit will all descend on this sacrifice, achieving remote control."

"The death of the sacrifice will not be finalized until all the chakra allocated to this sacrifice is consumed, or a strong person takes the initiative to remove the ninjutsu."

Upon hearing this, Mei Terumi's pupils trembled violently and she subconsciously turned around to look at the miserable corpse of Tachibana Kanegawa that was frozen to the stone wall behind her.

"I actually has this kind of ninjutsu!"

Jianchuan Ju didn't turn around, but continued to explain casually.

"Usually, when it descends upon the sacrifice, it can reach 70% to 80% of the original body's level. If it is a strong person with relatively strong chakra, it can even exert its full strength before the chakra is exhausted."

"Scorpion's strength lies entirely in his puppets. I guess he didn't bring his usual puppets with him when he used the Elephant Transformation Technique. That's why he performed so poorly in the battle just now."

When Mei Terumi heard that the 'Red Sand Scorpion', who had been suppressing her steadily in the battle just now, was actually evaluated as 'unbearable' by Tachibana Jianchuan, she felt discouraged at once.

But in the end, he was powerless to refute it and could only secretly make up his mind to practice even harder after returning!

Let’s not talk about the little thoughts in Mei Terumi’s heart for now.

After hearing what Jianchuan Tachibana said, the smile on Orochimaru's face became even more intense.

"So, Mizukage-sama, can you make this Jinchūriki stop?"

"After all, if the chakra is exhausted, my consciousness will instantly leave my body."

"I took the initiative to come to meet Mr. Mizukage this time to seek cooperation."

After Orochimaru finished saying this, he felt that it still had some weight, and waited for Jianchuan Tachibana to speak up to stop the Jinchūriki in front of him who looked a little abnormal.

Unexpectedly, Jianchuan Ju remained silent after hearing his words, and the strange little Jinchūriki in front of him showed no intention of stopping, but attacked even more fiercely.

This made Orochimaru, who was originally confident of victory, freeze in surprise.

There is really not much chakra left in this body. If the fight continues like this, Orochimaru doesn't know if he will have time to negotiate with the other party.

I had been holding back before, firstly because I wanted to let Scorpion die first, and secondly because I didn't want to consume too much chakra. If I attacked too hard, it would be detrimental to the subsequent negotiations on cooperation.

But now, seeing that Jianchuanju still hasn't made any moves, it is not a good choice to fight with the Jinchūriki to consume his energy.

In desperation, Orochimaru gritted his teeth, cut his fingers, and quickly formed seals with both hands.

"Bang~"

White smoke exploded, and a huge python broke out of the ground in an instant, bringing up large flakes of snow, and swallowed Zabuza, who was about to rush towards him, into its stomach in one gulp.

Seeing this, Orochimaru breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Jianchuan Tachibana.

"Lord Mizukage."

But just as he started to speak, the giant python beside him that was about to swallow Zabuza suddenly exploded from the middle with a "boom".

Zabuza's tailed beast coat kept fluttering as he suddenly leaped out.

Countless snake bodies and flesh were blown everywhere, and the giant python's huge head was blown into the air by the blast.

Then it spun around wildly in the air, splashing blood.

Finally, with a loud "boom", it fell right in front of Orochimaru.

Feeling the slight vibration of the earth and the snowflakes blowing in my face due to the blast of air caused by the falling snake head.

Orochimaru's mind instantly recalled some not-so-good memories.

The expression that had just slightly recovered had now become even uglier than before.
