Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

Chapter 144 The Advent of the Wood Release: Tree World

Fire Release: A flurry of explosive winds!

This is Obito's unique Fire Release ninjutsu. He formed hand seals, and a spatial vortex appeared. A streak of orange-red flame swept out along the storm generated by the distorted space. The attack range was large and the speed was extremely fast, engulfing both master and disciple.

The master and apprentice, running with their swords drawn, exchanged a glance and used a perfect, unsealed ninjutsu.

Water Release: Break Through the Torrent!

Wind Release: Rasengan!

Orochimaru's left palm revealed a stream of transparent water that could expand and contract, while Uchiha Gen's left palm revealed a rotating sphere of blue chakra, with white blade wings surrounding the sphere.

For Uchiha Gen, whose chakra control was unparalleled, the Rasengan was not particularly difficult to master.

While his mastery of wind-style chakra nature and form transformations couldn't compare to fire-style chakra, making it difficult for him to use the wind-style Rasengan, he could still manage to use a wind-style Rasengan.

The master and apprentice threw out their ninjutsu, which merged together in mid-air, transforming into a powerful combination ninjutsu.

Hurricane Water Vortex Technique!

A wildly spinning water dragon swept out of the lake, sucking up water from the lake as well. The two swirling ninjutsu techniques collided.

blah blah blah...

A large amount of water vapor evaporated, but the combined ninjutsu was still superior. The water dragon, which had shrunk by half a circle, rushed onto the lake shore, whipping up snow and mud that crashed into it. Obito quickly dodged.

Just then, Zhu Rong, who had flown high into the sky, opened his dragon mouth and spat out a dark red fireball the size of a washbasin, which contained extremely violent power.

Obito, suspended in mid-air, used his fan to defend himself. The fan surface glowed, and the explosive fireball did not explode immediately but was quickly absorbed. Then, a pillar of flame was reflected from the fan surface.

Zhu Rong neither dodged nor avoided it, but simply opened her mouth and swallowed the pillar of fire.

In fact, Zhu Rong cannot devour all flames, but it has no problem devouring the flames it sends out.

The enemy's fire-style attack was filled with a systematic array of different types of chakra, and the enemy had control over it.

If it is forcibly absorbed into the body, the foreign chakra will conflict with Zhu Rong's own chakra, causing damage instead.

Zhu Rong herself does not have the ability to actively generate chakra; the chakra in her body comes from Uchiha Gen's fire-style chakra and fire-style chakra that has been out of control.

As long as Zhu Rong doesn't directly absorb the fire attacks from others, even without resistance, the fire attacks from others won't cause any damage to him.

"Zhurong, use real fire."

Zhu Rong understood immediately and mobilized the natural fire within his body, which was devoid of chakra, to condense it into a dark red fireball and blast it towards Obito.

Although the previous explosive fireball was deflected by the Uchiha fan, the Uchiha fan cannot deflect pure impact force.

The snow by the lake was slippery, so after landing with dirt on my feet, I slid backward for a distance.

The attack came just as they came to a stop. Obito had no time to dodge or use any ninjutsu. He had to use his fan to block or Kamui.

However, facing two powerful opponents, Obito was reluctant to use it lightly. Although Kamui's cooldown time was short, it still had a certain duration.

If you are hit in a vital spot like the head while the cooldown is on, you will either have to use the Mangekyou Sharingan to unleash Izanagi or be killed.

Neither of these costs was something Obito wanted to bear.

boom!

This time, the Uchiha fan was unable to absorb the rebound, and the Explosive Flame Bullet exploded with a bang, the powerful impact sending Obito flying.

Obito fell rather awkwardly onto the snow, the parts of his fan that weren't protected by the flames were burned.

However, this level of injury might affect the fighting ability of others, but it is nothing to Obito, who has Tobi's support.

The burns healed rapidly under the vigorous life force, but the pain was still there, especially on the half of the body that was not made of interstitial cells.

At this moment, the master and disciple had already jumped to the lake shore, and upon seeing this, they immediately used their skills.

The Sword Shadow Clone Technique!

Orochimaru held the Kusanagi sword in his mouth, flicked out a shuriken with his left hand, and then quickly formed hand seals, one into two, two into four, four into eight, eight into sixteen... In the blink of an eye, the shuriken were as dense as a rainstorm.

Wind Flame Sword!

Uchiha Gen swung the Kusanagi sword and slashed, the wind and fire chakra initially merging together to form a golden-white flame sword aura net that descended from the sky.

Wood Release: Wood Ingot Wall!

Obito, lying on the ground, formed hand seals, and wooden pillars quickly emerged from the ground, curving into dark brown circular arches.

Chop, chop, chop...

A dense array of shuriken landed on the wooden wall, but that was all. The golden-white flame sword aura penetrated deep into the wood and ignited the wall, but it couldn't harm Obito for the time being.

When the two arrived, the wooden wall collapsed, but there was no one left under the arch.

"They escaped?"

"Probably not..."

The next moment, the master and disciple turned around at the same time to look at the eleven o'clock position. Obito's figure just emerged from the spatial vortex, and as soon as he landed, his hands flew out to form hand seals.

"The hospitality you gave me was quite good; now you can try the hospitality I've prepared for you."

Wood Release: The Tree World is Born!

As soon as he finished speaking and completed the hand seals, the ground on the north side of the lake trembled slightly. Saplings broke through the soil and snow and quickly grew into towering trees. These towering trees swept towards the master and disciple from all directions like a raging storm.

"To be able to use such a large-scale Wood Release technique in such icy conditions is truly astonishing!"

Orochimaru, seemingly oblivious to the danger, exclaimed with shining eyes.

"Stop sighing, come with me."

The spell that brings forth the Tree Realm is enormous in scale, and all offense and defense in the forest are controlled by the caster. Fighting in the Tree Realm is definitely a very bad choice, and sooner or later you will fall victim to the endless and unpredictable attacks.

The best way is to get out of the attack range of Tree World Advent, but it is difficult for ordinary ninjas to break through this wide-range ninjutsu.

The two nimbly dodged the tangled branches, leaped to the top of the tree, and soared into the sky. Zhu Rong flew over and caught them, lifting them up into the air.

"Damn it, how can there be such a monstrous summoning beast in this world!"

Obito looked at the two people and the dragon in mid-air and couldn't help but grit his teeth.

"Obito, it looks like it's going to be difficult to catch our target. Shall we retreat?"

"Wouldn't all that effort we put into using the Wood Release ninjutsu have been wasted?"

"Wait a little longer."

Then Obito jumped onto the canopy of a lush green tree and said in a deep voice, "If you keep doing this, the fight will lose its meaning."

"I'll give you two breaths. If you don't come down, I'm leaving."

Uchiha Gen grinned and said, "I'll be right down."

Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!

Wind Release Breakthrough!

A human and a dragon spewed out large amounts of flames from their mouths. The human used a wind-style ninjutsu, and flames scattered all over the sky, beautiful yet dangerous, and quickly set the forest ablaze after landing.

Then Zhu Rong continued to breathe fire, and the master and disciple used wind-style ninjutsu to fuel the flames. Soon, the entire tree world created by Obito was completely ignited by the flames. The towering fire dispelled the darkness, making it as bright as day. The Red Moon Lake reflected the flames, as if they had instantly arrived at a time when the forests were ablaze with color.

On the edge of the cliff, Obito stood on a bare maple tree and could only watch helplessly as the two people and the dragon moved, because they were flying too high for him to attack.

"Looks like I really have to leave; they're really difficult to deal with."

"Perhaps there's no need to rush."

Obito Uchiha: "???"

Weren't you just urging me to leave?

"Black Zetsu is here."

"Oh, I see. Then we can try again."
