Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

Chapter 135 Playing with

Seeing that his own bone spear had pierced his skull yet he was completely unharmed, and that the dragon claw was now slapping him back, even the battle-obsessed Jonin of the Kaguya clan was somewhat dumbfounded.

With a thud, the Kaguya clan Jonin was sent flying by a claw, his body rolling several times on the ground.

However, thanks to the bone armor he had created to protect his chest and his thick skin, he was not seriously injured, though he was covered in mud and snow grass, looking quite disheveled.

Zhu Rong's body is formed from flames, so while ordinary physical and fire attacks are not entirely ineffective against her, they are not very effective.

For a physical attack to be effective, its power must reach an extremely high level; otherwise, it's just a tickle.

The best way to deal with Zhurong is to use water and ice attacks; other elemental attacks are less effective with each subsequent attack.

Seeing the enemy lying on the ground, Zhu Rong opened his mouth and spewed out a wave of flames that swept out, causing the soil to churn and the flames to surge like waves, intensely hot!

The Jonin of the Kaguya clan were truly reckless; upon getting up and seeing the wave of fire approaching, they realized there was little chance of avoiding it and simply gave up.

Bones sprouted from his entire body to envelop it as much as possible, while a burst of azure chakra enveloped his entire body, and he charged straight at the wave of fire.

The next moment, the orange-red flames were broken apart, and a figure that was spinning rapidly in the air rushed out, with thick bone spikes spinning at high speed heading straight for Zhu Rong's forehead.

Zhu Rong remained calm and shrunk instantly, causing her attack to miss its target.

The Kaguya clan ninja landed on the ground, his hair completely destroyed, his body covered with burn marks, and a faint smell of meat wafted from him.

The burning pain on their bodies didn't bother the Kaguya clan ninjas; they were already used to pain that ordinary ninjas couldn't bear. What drove them crazy was that their attacks missed.

"what……"

"Tian Zhang, this ghostly summoning beast is too much of a nemesis to our Kaguya clan. Let's change it!"

This feeling of punching empty air, completely without force, was unbearable for the Kaguya clan ninjas who were used to close-quarters combat, back-and-forth exchanges, and punches landing with flesh.

"Gangzhong, I want to change too, come over here quickly."

The Kirigakure Jonin named Tian Zhang also had a very frustrating fight, not only did he not have the chance to use his ninjutsu, but he also had several wounds on his body.

Although Wusheng is not even on the same level as the lowest-level flying sword in Xianxia novels, it at least inherits a certain degree of the flying sword's attack speed and unpredictable attack angles.

This made it difficult for the fragile Kirigakure Jonin to withstand.

Kaguya Tsunashige wanted to run over and take her place, but Zhu Rong wouldn't allow it. He spat out deep red explosive fireballs from his dragon mouth, which were much more powerful than explosive tags.

A typical explosive tag has an attack range of only one meter in radius. If the quality is insufficient, the kill range will be even smaller. Only high-quality explosive tags can attack within a radius of two meters.

Boom, boom, boom...

Each explosive shell that lands creates a crater two to three meters in diameter, with condensed flames flying everywhere with the shockwave, its power comparable to that of modern artillery shells.

Even Kaguya Tsunashige, with her thick skin and tough flesh, dared not withstand such power head-on; no matter how thick-skinned she was, she was still made of flesh and blood.

Even if you can barely withstand one, can you keep going?

Kaguya Tsunashige was forced to dodge the blasts and was unable to run over to replace her opponent.

The two Kirigakure Jonin were tightly entangled, and if nothing unexpected happened, they would surely die at the hands of Zhu Rong and Wu Sheng...

At this moment, Uchiha Gen, carrying the Raikougi, had returned from the valley after absorbing the soul and lifespan of the Jonin who had been poisoned by Orochimaru.

Unlike the Raido-Gaga held by the Black Hoshino Raida, the current Raido-Gaga has black patterns all over its blade.

These patterns represent the seal of the contract!

As the ninja swords passed down through generations of Kirigakure, Kirigakure has a special method for recovering them, which allows them to summon ninja swords that have been left outside, much like summoning a summoning beast.

Unless the ninja sword is sealed in another dimension or has recognized a new master, it will be trapped in the summoning scroll no matter where it is in the ninja world.

Among the many sealing techniques, the Contract Seal is the most suitable for severing the connection between spirits. Minato Namikaze used it to sever the connection between Obito and Kurama (the Nine-Tails).

The spoils that have already been obtained cannot simply vanish into thin air.

He also wanted to explore whether it was possible to transfer or copy Raida's abilities to Wusheng...

The ability of Musou is ultimately too weak. If it could be combined with the ability of Raikiri, then it would be possible to integrate the abilities of other ninja swords, ninja tools, and even the Six Paths tools!

Only in this way can Wusheng keep up with his pace; otherwise, in the later stages, Wusheng might become a useless and unappealing figure.

"It's time to end the battle."

Uchiha Gen tossed the lightning blade in his hand to the shadow clone that emerged from the earth.

The shadow clone nodded with a smile, channeling almost all of its remaining chakra into the Raitogi, then swung the sword at the two Kirigakure Jonin.

Tian Zhang and Gang Shige noticed the two's actions, but they were tightly entangled and powerless to stop them. They could only frantically pray in their hearts that Lei Dao would not recognize the enemy...

The next moment, Raitogi drew upon the electrical charge in the atmosphere, transforming it into two thick, azure bolts of lightning that fell from the sky, striking the two men squarely on the forehead thanks to the Sharingan's prediction.

The two were struck by lightning, suffering internal and external injuries, their bodies paralyzed, their eyes rolling back, black smoke billowing from their faces, as they fell straight to the ground.

However, the two did not die, but were seriously injured. If Uchiha Gen had mastered the lightning attribute nature transformation, they would have been dead beyond any doubt.

With a bang, the shadow clone handed the lightning sword to the main body, exhausted its chakra, and vanished in a puff of white smoke.

Uchiha Gen flashed to Wusheng's side, and Wusheng, whose flying ability was almost exhausted, quickly crawled into the sword sheath.

Lifting the fallen Kirigakure ninja, Uchiha Gen and his Byakugan stared at each other. Since both of them had lost most of their consciousness, using hypnosis was a perfect match.

Under the guise of "voluntariness," the Hidden Mist ninja sacrificed their souls and lifespans.

Then, Uchiha Gen took the Kaguya clan ninja from Zhu Rong's mouth, gave Zhu Rong an approving look, and absorbed it in the same way.

"Let's go to Orochimaru-sensei's place."

Uchiha Gen, carrying two lightning swords, jumped onto Zhu Rong's back and said in an impassioned tone.

Four crimson clouds of flame emerged from beneath Zhurong's feet, and with a swift movement, the dragon flew towards the clearly visible body of the myriad snakes.

Even without the Flaming Clouds, Zhu Rong can still fly, but not as fast.

"Damn it, something's happened to Tsuna and the others, enemy reinforcements have arrived."

The pufferfish demon from the southern mountain, who had been keeping a close eye on the watermelon mountain, saw the rapidly approaching man and dragon and his expression changed drastically.

The ten Jonin who were besieging the enemy have now been reduced to half. If the fighting continues, won't the entire army be wiped out?

"Retreat immediately!"

Suigetsu Hobutsu made a quick decision, said his piece, and immediately ran away, before issuing a signal for a full retreat.

Seeing this, the other ninjas dared not linger and quickly made their escape.

However, the battlefield is not a place one can come and go as one pleases. Uchiha Gen chose the Jonin closest to him and chased after him.

Orochimaru also rode Manda and gave chase.

The other Konoha Jonin also followed the two and chased after them.

As for Konoha ninja below the rank of Jonin, they dared not pursue. The enemy had a slight advantage in strength and their retreat was orderly, so chasing them would easily result in being killed.

Konoha's elite forces chased the Hidden Mist ninja for dozens of miles, driving them back to the central-eastern part of the Land of Whirlpools before joyfully retreating.

On the way back, the Konoha Jonin kept glancing at Zhu Rong and Uchiha Gen.

Orochimaru's summoning beast Manda didn't immediately return to Ryuchi Cave, instead casting its curious gaze upon Zhu Rong...
