I became Hokage in Tokyo

Chapters 105 and 107: Iron Sand Realm Law

"clang--!"

The giant blade struck Master Dilu fiercely, but instead of tearing his body apart and sending a spray of blood flying, a large amount of sparks flew into the air.

Master Dilu's body was entirely golden, with golden Buddhist light not only surrounding him but also permeating every inch of his flesh and blood. His body seemed to be cast from gold, shimmering with a metallic luster, making him resemble a golden Buddha statue.

"puff."

Although Master Dilu appeared to be unharmed, he couldn't help but let out a muffled groan, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

The on-site commander, who was closely monitoring the situation, was also greatly alarmed.

This was the first time that Master Dilu had been injured in this extraordinary battle.

Is this a harbinger of defeat?

The on-site commander wanted to encourage Master Dilu, but then remembered his tendency to jinx things, and his mouth opened and closed, unsure of what to say.

In the end, all he could do was shut up and remain silent.

Sasori of the Red Sand suddenly swung his head back, and the Wind Shadow puppet flew backward, finally floating above his head.

"The Fire Temple's indestructible shell is truly extraordinary. Hehehe, even a tiny scratch would have been enough to kill you, but your turtle shell has saved you several times."

The Wind Shadow Puppet, suspended in mid-air, hung down with its hands, and a viscous liquid continuously dripped from its right giant blade, corroding a small pit in the concrete road. It was clearly highly poisonous.

"You stinking monk, why don't you continue to summon your Vajra King image to fight? Or have you run out of resources? It seems you're almost at your wit's end."

Sasori of the Red Sand, as expected of a seasoned veteran, immediately discovered that Master Jiraiya was all bark and no bite.

"Amitabha. Sasori of the Red Sand, aren't you in the same boat? The spiritual power carried by this projection of yours is almost depleted. You've only just descended into the surface world; you haven't had time to accumulate spiritual power at all. Awakening the remnant soul of Minamoto no Yorimitsu has also consumed a lot of your strength. How much longer can you hold on?"

Master Dilu casually wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then put his hands together and loudly chanted the Buddha's name.

The Buddhist chant, like a resounding bell, possessed a dignified and solemn rhythm that instilled courage in the hearts of the other Metropolitan Police Department personnel present.

"snort!"

Sasori of the Red Sand didn't bother to answer at all.

He opened his mouth towards the Kazekage puppet in the sky, and high-density chakra was transmitted to the puppet along the chakra lines.

The originally transparent and invisible chakra threads became faintly visible after being wrapped with chakra.

Sasori of the Red Sand actually uses these invisible threads to control these puppets!

This method is just like that of a puppeteer.

The on-site commander quickly adjusted the small camera he was wearing on his chest to capture the scene.

This is extremely valuable firsthand information about encounters with extraordinary individuals.

Even if all the officers from the Metropolitan Police Department were to be wiped out here, the video data would be uploaded to the network immediately and transmitted to the Metropolitan Police Department as important intelligence.

However, a doubt flashed through the mind of the on-site commander. Since the puppet was controlled by threads, and Sasori's appearance was also that of a giant puppet, then where exactly was his real body hiding?

"Monk of the Fire Temple, you're far too thick-skinned. This fight will never end. Let me show you the Kazekage's unique technique! The reason he's considered the strongest Kazekage of all time is because he knows this technique!"

The Wind Shadow Puppet's mouth, which had split open to its chin and earlobes, was fully extended, and it spat out clumps of black iron sand that swirled around it.

With a twitch of its head, the iron sand was compressed to a high density and transformed into more than a dozen sharp spears, each two meters long.

The tips of the steel spears continued to vibrate and rustle, sounding like hundreds or thousands of bees buzzing their wings. Just hearing this ominous sound left no doubt about their destructive power.

"Hehehe, didn't you want to save these mortals? This time I'm going to attack you and them at the same time. This is the most lethal state. Just how many people will die?" Sasori of the Red Sand let out a cold and chilling laugh.

The dozen or so steel spears in the sky changed direction, flew to a height of over a hundred meters, aimed at Master Di Lu and the Metropolitan Police Department personnel behind him from different angles, and then left almost invisible afterimages in the air as they all shot down towards them.

Magnet Release: Giant Iron Sand Needle!

The officers at the Metropolitan Police Department turned ashen-faced.

That Sasori of the Red Sand is so despicable and shameless!

In the battle of the extraordinary, they deliberately dragged these mortals into it, clearly intending to distract Master Di Lu and find an opportunity to exploit.

Rumble!

After several deafening explosions, amidst the rising dust, the Thousand-Hand Guanyin statue that Master Dilu had summoned first reappeared in the void.

The Thousand-Hand Guanyin stretched out her golden arms and caught the iron sand spears in mid-air.

With a flick of its hand, the Thousand-Hand Guanyin statue sent the iron sand spears flying to the ground, where they crumbled into a pool of iron sand.

"Master of Earth and Land..."

Before the on-site commander could recover from the joy of escaping death, he saw a long iron spear pierce through Master Dilu's abdomen, blood gushing out.

"Truly worthy of being a monk, you are indeed compassionate, sacrificing yourself to save some mortals who are completely unrelated to you. You are indeed too young. If you could live as long as I do, you wouldn't have those trivial emotions."

The on-site commander and Yuji Kambara were moved to tears by the scene before them.

Master Jiraiya knocked down all the iron-sand spears aimed at the Metropolitan Police Department personnel; if it were just about protecting himself, it would be more than enough.

Yet Master Dilu resolutely sacrificed himself, paying such a terrible price. Even the Buddha cutting off his own flesh to feed an eagle couldn't have done better; truly a virtuous and eminent monk!

If the previous admiration for Master Dilu was due to his manifestations of Buddhist supernatural powers such as the Thousand-Armed Avalokiteshvara and the Wrathful King, now the Metropolitan Police Department staff have completely fallen under the sway of Master Dilu's noble character.

"Amitabha."

Master Dilu was still chanting Buddhist mantras. His pale golden face did not have the aloof and emotionless air of a divine being like the golden Buddha statues in the temple. Instead, it was gentle and kind, making people feel compassion.

At this moment, the iron sand spear that had been inserted into Master Dilu's body began to disintegrate, turning into a ball of iron sand that buried Master Dilu's feet and then climbed upwards as if it were alive.

"This technique can be defended against, but it cannot be touched, like this. This way, you'll be unable to move!"

Master Dilu coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the Thousand-Hand Guanyin statue behind him slammed down on the earthen wall behind him, smashing through it.

After unleashing this attack, the Thousand-Hand Guanyin statue seemed to have exhausted all its power and disappeared.

"Benefactors, you'd better run away quickly, because what's next is no longer a place for mortals to watch."

Even at a time like this, you're still thinking of them, Master Dilu...

The on-site commander choked up, wiped away his tears, and decisively led his men to flee.

We can't let Master Dilu sacrifice himself in vain!

"This is the final blow, Iron Sand Realm Technique!"
