Ignoring Kakashi and Rin's kunai attacks, Mugetsu stretched out his arms and wrapped them around their waists. A crackling sound filled the air as arcs of electricity crackled across his back, coalescing into an armor-like shape.

Rumble.

With a deafening explosion, the stone sphere shattered in mid-air. Stone fragments flew everywhere, and dust billowed up.

Swish.

Two figures flashed out from between the stone platforms not far away and appeared around the arena.

These were two people, one tall and one short, both dressed in Iwa ninja attire and wearing masks with strange patterns on their faces, exuding an eerie and mysterious aura.

"Is this kid the one you guys were talking about?" The tall Iwa ninja crossed his arms and said in a nonchalant tone, "He's not that great."

"Don't be careless, Lord Owl." The short Iwa ninja's voice was hoarse, but his tone was very respectful. "This guy isn't injured at all."

"I really dislike the name 'Owl'."

"Well, just to be on the safe side, this is the only way we can do it for now."

"whispering sound."

The Iwa ninja, using the alias Owl, snorted coldly in annoyance, stretched his body, and said, "Fine. Let me confirm for now what kind of force you're talking about that will hinder my plans." He lifted his foot and walked step by step towards the dust-filled area.

"You'd better be careful, Lord Owl." The short Iwa ninja switched to another voice, this time a bit more rounded.

call out.

The moment he finished speaking, Wuyue's figure suddenly burst out from the smoke, clenched her fist, and slammed it into Xiao's chest.

Bang.

A heavy, muffled thud.

The fist was blocked by a pair of strong arms. Even with Wuyue's strength, it did not cause any real damage to the opponent. The Iwa ninja simply took two steps back and deflected Wuyue's punch.

"A very good strike." Xiao praised calmly, "It reminds me of an old friend of mine. You now have about thirty percent of his power."

Huh? He only used 30% of his full power in his attack? Is this guy exaggerating? No, that's not right. This tone doesn't seem right! But if it's true, it's too unbelievable... Does such a person exist in Iwagakure? Just who is he?

Wu Yue's mind raced. Just as he opened his mouth to speak, a mechanical notification sound suddenly rang in his mind.

174 Unexpected

Make your choice, dear host.

First, so what? My gold content is 70% higher than yours! Don't believe me? Let's compare!

Second, good friends? You should be best buddies, right? You look like a gay guy!

Third, a mere R or B... are you constipated? What are you being so mysterious about?

Uh.

Wu Yue paused slightly, slightly taken aback. These options all seemed rather ordinary. Although her words might have sounded somewhat disrespectful, they were far better than the usual options presented!

Wait, why does this feel so strange? Isn't it good that the system is offering such a common option?! I'm not some kind of psychopath!

Shaking her head, Wu Yue quickly banished these strange thoughts from her mind. She took a breath and said coldly, "You mere R, B... are you constipated? What are you pretending to be mysterious for?"

R, B...Constipation? ??

The two Iwa ninjas froze simultaneously. The expression beneath the owl mask turned extremely gloomy, his eyes flashing with anger. The shorter one, on the other hand, tilted his head slightly, his shoulders rising and falling as if he were trying to suppress a laugh.

At times like this, he really didn't want to laugh. But he couldn't help it. This boy! How dare he call this adult R, B... and even say he was constipated?! This, this is just too funny... no, too infuriating!

Seeing the gaze that Owl was casting, the short Iwa ninja quickly changed his mind and dared not have the slightest disrespectful thought.

"Congratulations, host, for completing the selection. You will be rewarded with twenty days of cultivation and two years of dragon growth cycle."

Oh? It's done! This time it was so easy.

Wu Yue smiled slightly. However, to the other party, that smile was like the most vicious mockery.

“Take back what you just said, brat!” Owl’s tone suddenly turned cold as he spoke.

Tsk, what an arrogant threat.

Wuyue's expression also turned cold, and she retorted sharply, "What if I don't?"

"I'll make you regret this." With that, Xiao flipped his hands and quickly formed a series of hand seals.

Seeing his movements, Wuyue raised an eyebrow, a slight look of surprise on his face. "This hand seal… this Iwa ninja actually knows this kind of ninjutsu?!"

Fire Release: Heavenly Fire Barrage!

Bang bang bang.

One after another, dark red fireballs, each about two meters in radius, spewed from the owl's mouth. The flames burst forth, and the scorching heat seemed capable of igniting the air itself.

Faced with a barrage of fireballs, Wuyue showed no sign of panic. She raised her right hand, pointing her index and middle fingers upwards.

Ice Release: Frost Shield

He opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of freezing air, which quickly condensed into a huge ice wall several meters high in front of him.

Boom boom boom.

Fireballs crashed into the ice wall, the sonic booms generated by the enormous impacts echoing in all directions.

Chi Chi Chi.

A wisp of mist rose up. It was formed from fireballs striking the ice wall, melting its surface into water, which then evaporated and condensed.

However, the mist had only been swirling for a short while when Wuyue had already completed her next seal.

Ice Release: Heavenly Burial Lotus!

flap.

A sharp, shattering sound, like glass breaking.

The ice wall in front of Wuyue shattered instantly, turning into specks of silvery-white ice that enveloped the entire area.

"Ice Release?" A brow twitched beneath the Owl Mask as he glanced at the frost drifting down from the sky. "This technique is interesting."

Click, click...

The moment he finished speaking, the falling frost instantly froze into ice. It froze the bodies of Owl and the short Iwa ninja, the frost spreading across the entire area.

Having done all this, Wuyue had no intention of stopping there. He used both hands simultaneously, and one strange hand seal after another appeared. With his movements, dark red bubbles suddenly rose from the ground in that entire area.

The scene before me was like a lava inferno, with the ground radiating a scorching, intense heat.

Molten Release: Demonic Flame Refining!

boom.

A loud bang.

At that moment, the earth seemed to crack open. A burst of dark red light shot out, and from it emerged a gigantic, dark red arm formed entirely of molten lava. Its five fingers spread wide, and like Mount Tai crashing down, it slammed down on the two frozen "Iwa Ninja"!

Rumble.

The sky collapsed and the earth caved in!

This apocalyptic scene was truly a collapse of the sky and a sinkhole.

The powerful shockwave, carrying a hurricane, spread outwards in a ring shape. Moreover, the moment the lava arm landed, it transformed from a solid to a liquid state, the lava flowing like a waterfall cascading down from the sky, spraying and splashing in all directions.

Looking at his masterpiece—the billowing smoke and steam, the lava surging across the mountains—Wuyue scratched his head. "Uh, seems I've gone too far again? Oh well." Confidently turning back, he prepared to leave.

Faced with such a complex bloodline ninjutsu, even someone with the defensive power of the Third Raikage would likely suffer a severe injury. He didn't believe the opponent could survive.

However, he forgot that there are always some people in this world who exist outside the norm. Or rather, he didn't forget, but simply didn't connect the other person with those kinds of people.

In fact, just as he turned around, a cold voice rang out behind him. "A very good trick, indeed worthy of being an appetizer."

what?

Wu Yue froze, turning her head in astonishment. Then, she gasped. This...this is...

175 The Shadow Emerging from the Water

With Wuyue's experience and strength, coupled with his precognitive control over the plot, there are very few things in the current ninja world that can astound or surprise him. But the scene before him is clearly among them.

The smoke and mist that had filled the area had dissipated, and a huge figure stood in Wuyue's sight on the ground covered by the dark red lava flow.

At first glance, it appears to be a humanoid skeleton. Its entire body is a deep blue, with each of its bony arms gripping a uniquely shaped, wave-like short blade. It exudes a chilling and oppressive aura.

Susanoo!

In the current ninja world, perhaps few people have actually seen this thing, but that doesn't include Mugetsu. Familiar with the original story, he recognized the opponent's technique at a glance. Not only that, but through the shape and appearance of this Susanoo, he instantly saw through the true identity of the person before him.

No wonder he was able to control Nohara Rin and Kakashi with genjutsu right under my nose; 157 No wonder there was a blind arrogance and confidence in his words, giving the impression that he had everything under control... Indeed. My title of "Konoha's Heavenly Dragon" is indeed a bit insignificant in comparison to him.

After all, this guy in front of us... is the strongest behind-the-scenes boss in the Naruto world, someone who almost single-handedly shook the entire ninja world—Uchiha Madara!

Yes, the strongest! In Mugetsu's opinion, even the ultimate Uzuki Goddess is no match for him. Although Uzuki Goddess's techniques and physical energy are more powerful, her combat experience and combat intelligence are clearly less than one percent of Uchiha Madara's.

Damn it, why would this big boss suddenly contact me? Was it because I was too high-profile?

Wu Yue was filled with doubt, and her expression was serious.

It was unclear whether the opponent had used the "Transformation Technique" or the "Wood Release Spores" possession technique. Even though he couldn't unleash his full power, Wuyue dared not underestimate him in the slightest. His muscles tensed, and he entered a state of full combat readiness.

"Oh? You look surprised? I think you've probably never seen this before."

Madara Uchiha, unaware that his identity had already been exposed, said indifferently, "It's alright, I'll show you slowly, kid." Before he finished speaking, his hands quickly formed hand seals.

This technique...

Wuyue narrowed her eyes, her hands rapidly forming hand seals. The next moment, both of their ninjutsu were completed almost simultaneously.

Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!

Water Release: Flowing Water Barrier!

Rumble, crash...

Flames capable of igniting an entire forest spewed from Madara Uchiha's mouth; they collided with the water spewed out by Mugetsu, which could form a huge lake.

Chi Chi Chi.

Amidst the clear, resonant sounds of water and fire mingling, a misty vapor rose from the entire battlefield, enveloping the area in a hazy glow.

"Wuyue-kun, what exactly is going on..."

Rin Nohara finally snapped out of her controlled state, supporting the still unconscious Kakashi beside her, her face full of astonishment.
