Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 535 The Night of the Nine-Tailed Fox (Part 8)

Although Tachibana Kenkawa noticed that the nameless one falling from the sky seemed to be still in control.

However, to avoid accidentally crushing it with his large hand, he naturally slowed down his grip slightly.

But before the giant claws of the "Grand Skull of the Immortal" could even touch the nameless figure in the air...

A deep, dark flame suddenly rose from the palm of the blue-gold giant hand.

"Amaterasu? Looks like she's really alright?"

The moment the black Amaterasu Flame appeared, it immediately spread and expanded across the entire giant hand.

Even though the giant hand was surrounded by special water enhanced by Sage Chakra, it still couldn't slow down the spread of Amaterasu's flames.

In the blink of an eye, half of the blue-gold palm was already enveloped in black flames.

However, Tachibana Kanagawa showed no sign of panic in the face of this sudden attack from Amaterasu.

It's not because the 'Grand Sage's' hand and body are not directly connected.

But because

"Sage Art: White Release: Ice Fist!"

Pure white flames instantly rose from between the giant palms, and in a flash they became entangled with the pitch-black Amaterasu Flame.

The two flames, one white and one black, collided and intertwined, producing a crackling sound similar to burning dry wood.

In the blink of an eye, the pure white flames had enveloped Amaterasu Fire layer by layer, turning it into crystalline ice blocks whose centers were still burning fiercely.

With a slight tremor of the giant claw, the ice blocks immediately shattered and fell off.

The black flames inside also crashed to the ground with a loud bang.

However, the scene before him caused the nameless man's pupils to tremble violently, even though he could remain calm even when Susanoo was destroyed.

For a moment, they were somewhat flustered.

"How is that possible?! Amaterasu is a flame that can burn everything!"

It should be noted that, in Wuming's understanding, the power of Susanoo is based on the fact that she is currently drawing on the Seven-Tails' chakra through the "Eight Thousand Spears".

It is only natural that the immense power brought by a huge amount of energy can be destroyed by an even more powerful force.

However, Amaterasu's inherent characteristic is that it burns everything, even flames and water, which will be completely incinerated by Amaterasu's flames.

There is now another kind of flame that can suppress Amaterasu.

This was beyond her comprehension.

However, no matter what Wuming was thinking at this moment, the giant hand continued to reach out and grab her without stopping.

In desperation, Wuming raised his palm to meet the giant claw that was reaching for him.

The slender, fair hands contrasted sharply with the enormous blue claws that were over ten meters long.

However, the next moment, countless thick tree branches surged out from under the sleeves of the nameless black robe and shot towards the blue claws.

Although the gushing tree trunks failed to stop the claws' advance, the resulting reaction force instantly pushed Wuming away from his original position, allowing him to dodge the grab.

Without hesitation, Wuming landed back on the ground, and his red chakra energy surged once more.

This time, however, before the crimson skeleton Susanoo could form its outer armor and expand in size...

In the distance, Tachibana Kanagawa clasped her hands together again.

The hands of the "Great Phantom of the Immortal Technique" seemed to be imitating his, clasping together in unison.

"Sage Art: Water Wave Blade!"

Although the blue-gold giant claw with only three fingers looks somewhat comical when its hands are clasped together.

However, the power of the ninjutsu released was not diminished in the slightest.

On the contrary, it was magnified dozens of times compared to ordinary ninjutsu.

The water in the rain quickly converged.

In the blink of an eye, several giant crescent-shaped water blades shot out rapidly toward the newly formed Susanoo skeleton.

The extremely compressed water blades mercilessly slashed along the neck and even the arms of the skeleton Susanoo.

The rumble swept across the earth.

The Susanoo, which had just expanded to over twenty meters in length, was destroyed once again.

However, unlike the previous "Water Flow Rock Smashing Fist," the slashing attack did not have a spreading punching force, and the skeletal body at the very center of the newly generated red Susanoo was still preserved.

Seeing that Mumei still refused to give up and continued to pour chakra into him to re-condense Susanoo.

Jianchuan Ju simply grabbed the last crescent-shaped water blade in the air.

The water flow was violently agitated.

The crescent-shaped water blade, which was originally supposed to be a ballistic attack, seemed to have been solidified into a stable entity, firmly held in the hand of 'Grand Sage Mode', and truly transformed into a 'water wave blade' made of Sage Mode energy.

Wielding a crescent-shaped water blade, Jianchuan Ju swung his giant claw and slashed down.

The incredibly sharp compressed water blade slashed straight into the still-forming skeleton of Susanoo, eventually getting stuck in the gap between the ribs and stopping atop the nameless man's head.

"Stop!"

Tachibana Kanagawa's voice was serious and cold.

Although the nameless man in front of her was actually the same person as Uchiha Hikaru, whom she knew, Tachibana Kenkawa was naturally able to distinguish between the two.

This time, he was showing mercy to his opponent, and if the opponent remained stubborn, Jianchuan Ju would not hesitate to kill him on the spot.

However, despite stopping the formation of Susanoo in the face of Tachibana's threat, Mumei showed no fear in his eyes.

He roared at Jianchuan Ju in the same cold but slightly crazed killing intent.

"Ninjas! They all deserve to die!!!"

"boom--"

The crimson chakra flames around Susanoo rapidly boiled, as if about to erupt again.

But the next moment.

cut!

The massive crescent-shaped water blade slashed downwards again with renewed force.

In an instant, it split the Susanoo in front of it, along with the nameless creature within it, in two.

The gushing high-pressure water jets shot out into the distance, the roar and the dust they kicked up spreading until the entire forest seemed to have been cleaved in two before slowly disappearing.

The red Susanoo, having lost the support of chakra and ocular power, shattered with a roar, turning into two thin red flames that quickly dissipated into the air.

With a grim expression, Jianchuan Ju dispelled the enormous body of the 'Immortal Technique Giant Ghost' and slowly descended to the ground.

And beneath the shattered mask of the already deceased figure was indeed a pretty face identical to that of Uchiha Hikaru.

However, before Jianchuan Ju could get close enough to check, the already dead 'Nameless' was surrounded by flashing light and shadow, and turned into an ordinary-looking White Zetsu corpse.

"Hmm? Impersonation??"

The thought had barely crossed Jianchuan Ju's mind when he immediately rejected it.

White Zetsu's "Imitation Technique" does not have the effect of imitating other people's abilities.

"So it's another transformation technique?"

After a moment's thought, Jianchuan Ju realized what was going on.

Given Wuming's abilities, he is indeed the most suitable person for the "Transformation Technique".

Others using the "Transformation Technique" have to consider how much chakra to transfer to the sacrifice and how much power they can unleash. However, for Mumei, who possesses the "Eight Thousand Spears," after the "Transformation Technique," he can continue to draw chakra from the "Eight Thousand Spears," ensuring that he can unleash his full power.

Of course, what Tachibana Kanagawa didn't know was that although Obito Uchiha had arranged for Mumei to intercept him on his way to cause trouble in Konoha,

However, Obito could not predict whether he would actually go, or in which direction his movements would take.

Without space-time ninjutsu, Mumei could neither directly stop him from leaving from within the Kumogakure camp, nor could she chase after Tachibana all the way.

That's why they could only place White Zetsu, imbued with a small amount of chakra, at several locations leading to Konoha.

After confirming Tachibana's direction of movement, he used the "Transformation Technique" to descend upon the sacrifice, and then relied on the "Eight Thousand Spears" to replenish his chakra for the battle.

This tactic can only be implemented by someone like the Nameless One, who possesses "eight thousand spears".

However, what Obito didn't expect was that before Mumei could even use the full power of the Seven-Tails' chakra to hold off Tachibana, he was directly defeated by Obito's burst of power.

In the end, the entire battle lasted less than ten minutes.

Looking at the fallen corpse of White Zetsu, Tachibana Kanagawa felt a strange sense of relief.

It then took off again and flew towards Konoha.
