Before Sasuke's Susanoo skeleton was fully revealed, the rock strata to the northwest suddenly emitted a halo of twilight.
The chakra particles floating in the light reminded everyone of a nightmarish night with a blood moon overhead.
"Kakashi-sensei! Three o'clock!" Shikamaru's shadow suddenly stretched into a defensive formation.
His voice abruptly stopped, because the suffocating sense of oppression vanished in the third second, like a candle flame suddenly extinguished by a higher-dimensional being.
In the deathly silence, the sound of the shattered rocks hitting the ground was exceptionally clear.
On the stretcher carried by the medical team, the blood of a certain Chunin was dripping, forming a strange swastika pattern.
Onoki's Dust Release barrier rippled unnaturally, and the shrewd Tsuchikage showed a look of bewilderment for the first time: "This chakra nature... does not belong to any existing bloodline limit..."
Gaara's Eye of Sand condensed in the northwestern sky, but exploded into a rain of sand the moment it took shape.
Temari's three-star fan fragments suddenly flew automatically toward the direction of the chakra fluctuations, and then mysteriously fell vertically midway.
The remaining Yin-Yang Release chakra in the entire space began to flow backward, drawing a huge space-time formula under everyone's feet.
“Naruto.” Sasuke’s Rinnegan suddenly locked onto his comrade. “The burn on your left hand is glowing.”
The Nine-Tailed Fox's warning simultaneously resounded in the mental space.
Naruto looked down and saw that Kaguya's unique All-Killing Ash Bone substance was seeping from his scabbed wound. The grayish-white substance transformed into chakra arrows pointing northwest the moment it came into contact with the air.
Chapter 338 Trap
Moonlight streamed across the cracked rock face as Naruto held a chakra arrow formed from the All-Killing Ash Bones in his palm, its arrowhead trembling like a buzzing sound in the northwest.
The wounds, still wrapped in Nine-Tails chakra, were throbbing with pain. He could feel the Yang Release power within him tearing at the remaining Kaguya material.
"Should we give chase?" Sasuke's Rinnegan rippled, his purple pupils reflecting the spacetime jutsu that was gradually dissipating in the sky.
The puppeteers of Sunagakure are collecting fragments of the Three-Star Fan, with dark, corroded marks remaining at the spot where each piece of metal fell.
Tsunade slammed her fist into the rock wall beside her, and moss sap seeped from the spiderweb-like cracks: "Three medical personnel will remain, the rest..." She suddenly stopped, her gaze sweeping over the Chunin with the blood-stained swastika on the stretcher, her fist clenched so tightly under the bandages that it cracked.
The most resilient of the three legendary Konoha ninjas, at this moment, the Yin Seal on her shoulder blade was flickering uncontrollably.
"Let's go through the southeast canyon," Shikamaru suddenly said, his shadow spreading across the ground in a complex water pattern.
He traced the strategic map provided by Sunagakure with his fingertips, shadows moving between the contour lines: "Thirty miles to the northwest is a group of wind-eroded mushroom rocks. If I were the one who set up the plan, I would definitely set up chakra resonance traps on those natural stone pillars."
Killer Bee's eight sword sheaths clashed with a light rhythm, but his sunglasses couldn't hide his taut jawline: "But Naruto's arrow is crying out~ A sad melody is flowing from the northwest~" The rap stopped abruptly as he suppressed the suddenly raging Eight-Tails chakra, and the tentacles of the Gyūki stirred up a storm in the mental space.
Naruto looked down at the arrow in his palm, and his golden-orange chakra suddenly surged: "My shadow clone will go and scout ahead..." Before he could finish speaking, Gaara's Sand Coffin cut him off, and quicksand mixed with iron sand wrapped around the tip of the arrow.
The young Kazekage's panda eyes gleamed blue in the moonlight: "Three hours ago, the Sunagakure reconnaissance team discovered traces of Scorching Release in the Mushroom Rock Group."
Onoki floated above everyone's heads, the Dust Release barrier spinning into a pure white cube in his palm: "The Libra Clan's sensory unit encountered a time-space layering trap in similar terrain during the Third Shinobi World War..." The old man suddenly coughed violently, the bloodline disease medicine bottle at his waist jingling.
Sasuke's Susanoo bone wings suddenly opened, and the air currents stirred up by the purple chakra startled the night owl.
The six-tomoe mirror in his Rinnegan locked onto Naruto: "The trajectory of the arrow perfectly coincides with the geomagnetic field of the Mushroom Rock Group." The spatial fluctuations of Amenotejikara flowed in his left eye, but twisted into a strange Möbius strip when it touched the northwest.
"Then let's split into two groups!" The Raikage's Lightning Release armor exploded with arcs of electricity, illuminating the night sky brightly.
The Fourth Hokage, Ai, boomed his voice, shaking the snow from the rock crevices: "Kumakuya's Hope carries the scroll of the Heavenly Gift Technique, she can..."
"No!" Hinata suddenly rushed out of the crowd, her Byakugan veins throbbing violently.
Realizing her lapse in composure, she hurriedly lowered her head, her fingertips turning white as she twisted her cuffs: "I...I'm sorry, but the chakra flow shows...the spatial coordinates of the entire region are undergoing a Klein bottle-like topological folding."
As if to confirm her words, the shadow map that Shikamaru had drawn earlier suddenly became three-dimensional and rose up, with the contour lines twisting into countless ouroboros connected head to tail.
Temari's three-star fan fragments automatically arranged themselves into the twelve earthly branches pattern, with different tailed beast imprints appearing on each metal piece.
Naruto suddenly pressed his hand to his chest, and Kurama let out a low growl in his mental space.
When he looked up, his azure pupils had turned into vertical pupils: "There are remnants of Shukaku's chakra in the southeast canyon!" The resonance between the tailed beasts made his teeth chatter, "And... it carries a fear I've never felt before."
Kakashi's mask was soaked with cold sweat. His Sharingan scanned the still-growing space-time jutsu on the ground: "Team 7 saw a similar jutsu structure in the Land of Hot Springs during their S-rank mission." He lifted his headband to reveal his Mangekyou Sharingan. "But the caster that time was..."
"Southeast." Shikamaru suddenly severed his shadow, the broken shadow transforming into a black bird that rushed towards the canyon. "The Sand Village's puppet troops once set up an emergency supply point in the canyon." His voice was unusually urgent. "If the enemy is indeed using terrain resonance, we will need to rely on Shukaku's remaining chakra to counter the trap."
Sasuke's Kusanagi sword suddenly drew its sheath, the tip pointing at a certain spot on the distorted map: "Twelve o'clock, a triangular area formed by three umbrella-shaped giant rocks." The Rinnegan's ripples swept across the arrow dancing in Naruto's palm, "There are chakra folds there similar to Kaguya's dimension."
Tsunade bit her finger and slammed it on the ground, summoning a slug half the height of a person: "The communications team should contact Kirigakure immediately and have them..." The slug clone's slime suddenly boiled and vaporized, condensing into ancient "dangerous" runes in the air.
The Fifth Hokage's face instantly turned ashen—this was the highest level of warning signal from Shikkotsu Forest.
Naruto suddenly slammed an arrow into the ground, and golden chains formed from the Nine-Tails' chakra wrapped around everyone's wrists: "Stay close to me!" The Sage Mode markings on his forehead flashed wildly, "Natural energy has formed a reverse tornado in the southeast!"
The moment everyone was airborne, the spacetime magic spell where they had been standing suddenly reversed, shredding the rocks within a hundred meters radius into quantum dust.
The fragments of Temari's fan handle formed a swastika-shaped protective array in the air, but after Gaara infused Shukaku's chakra, they transformed into a kind of Buddhist shrine.
As the last person passed through the shadow of the wind-eroded mushroom rock formations, a chakra thread embedded deep within the rock strata trembled slightly, awakening eight thousand puppet beetles slumbering in the sandstone pores.
When the last puppet beetle was burned to a crisp by the Raikage's Lightning Release, the rock strata above the canyon suddenly collapsed.
Tens of thousands of chakra threads appeared in the moonlight, covering the entire sky like a spider web.
Just as Naruto was about to form hand seals, his Shadow Clone Technique suddenly collapsed—the threads were actually absorbing natural energy.
Don't touch the rock wall! Kakashi's Lightning Blade ripped through the night sky, severing three chakra strands that were about to wrap around Hinata's ankles.
The severed threads instantly expanded into a python-shaped clay puppet, but Onoki's Dust Release skill promptly decomposed it into atomic form.
Old Tu Ying's cough echoed through the canyon, and the medicine bottle at his waist made a soft clattering sound as it collided with the gravel.
Sasuke's Rinnegan suddenly turned to the right: three o'clock, three hundred meters away. The tomoe flowing in his purple pupils reflected the Kaguya clan crest shimmering in the rock crevices.
Just as he was about to leap up to investigate, the seemingly ordinary gravel beneath his feet suddenly collapsed, and hundreds of senbon wrapped with explosive tags shot out from all directions.
Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall! Naruto's hand seals were faster than his thoughts, and a rock wall carved with a fox face rose from the ground.
But the moment the explosive tag touched the rock wall, it strangely pierced through the solid structure and headed straight for Sasuke's back.
Kakashi's Sharingan captured the instant the space distorted, and the Kamui Vortex swallowed half of the hidden weapons at the last second.
Watch out for Magnet Release! Gaara's Sand Shield was a step too late.
Three stray senbon needles pierced through Susanoo's ribcage defenses, drawing a bloodline on Sasuke's left shoulder.
The splattered blood condensed into ice crystals in mid-air, each crystal reflecting a strange sealing technique.
Naruto's pupils contracted to pinpoints, and the Nine-Tails' chakra surged uncontrollably.
Beneath his golden-orange coat, the six Paths of Heroism faintly emerged, scorching the blood-stained sand into a glassy state. Damn it! He slammed his fist into the rock wall, but was forcibly stopped the instant it touched the rock by Shikamaru's Shadow Binding Technique.
Calm down! Shikamaru's chakra threads wrapped around Naruto's wrist, his shadow spreading across the ground like a detailed map; these traps would absorb emotional energy. He pointed to the crystallizing bloodstains on Sasuke's wound; anger would accelerate the spread of the sealing technique.
Sasuke snorted coldly, and the Kusanagi sword crackled with the lightning of the Chidori Stream.
Without hesitation, he sliced away the flesh around the wound, and the splattered blood froze into an ice mirror under the gaze of the Rinnegan.
The mirror didn't reflect his image, but rather countless overlapping spacetime vortexes. It was a magnetic trap created by superimposed spacetime. He flicked away the blood droplets from the tip of his sword, his gaze towards Kakashi filled with inquiry, reminiscent of Obito's technique from years ago.
But it's even older. Kakashi lifted his headband, and the patterns of his Mangekyou Sharingan resonated with the sealing formula within the ice crystals.
His fingers traced the damp moss on the rock wall, then he suddenly froze—the deep green plant textures were exactly the same as the cracks in the Divine Might Space.
Hinata's Byakugan suddenly rippled with emotion. She staggered, grabbing for support against the rock wall, blood trickling from the corner of her bulging eyes: Three hundred meters underground... there's a Klein bottle structure formed from chakra... Her trembling fingers traced a 3D projection in the air. All the traps are projections of four-dimensional space onto the three-dimensional world; we must...
Follow the cross-section of the Möbius strip! Shikamaru's shadow and Hinata's chakra projection suddenly overlapped.
He tore off a piece of fabric from his sleeve and burned it to ashes using lightning, scattering the ashes into the air.
The scattered ashes, under the influence of a certain force field, form a constantly swirling, ribbon-like structure.
Naruto helped Hinata, who was swaying, and the warmth from his palm made her ears turn red.
The Nine-Tails' Yang Release chakra flowed along the point of contact, gently repairing her overused Byakugan meridians. Following the direction of the Ash Boundary. His voice was deep, his Sage Mode mask flickering in the moonlight. Everyone maintained a diamond formation, Sasuke and I in front...
No. Sasuke's Susanoo wings suddenly unfurled, purple chakra enveloping the entire team. You take the rear. The tomoe in his Rinnegan spun in reverse, and the spatial markers of Amenotejikara flickered on everyone's shoulders.
Before Naruto could argue any further, the young Kazekage's Sand Coffin had already lifted everyone to a safe height.
Temari's three-star fan fragments suddenly resonated, piecing together in mid-air to form an incomplete star map.
Gaara poured Shukaku's sand into it, and the unique puppet runes of Sunagakure immediately appeared at the gap in the star map. It was a defensive system left by his father. He controlled the sand cloud to avoid an invisible spatial rift; these traps had existed for at least twenty years.
Onoki's Dust Release barrier suddenly trembled violently. Old Earth Shadow stared at the rhomboid crystals that were faintly visible in the rock strata, his turbid pupils suddenly contracting: This is... the Void Realm... His mutterings were interrupted by Killer Bee's sudden burst of Tailed Beast Cloak.
The Eight-Tails' tentacles tore through the rock wall, revealing a dense army of puppets behind it—each puppet had a chakra battery with Rinnegan patterns embedded in its chest.
Hip-hop!
Looks like we've hit the jackpot! Kirabi's rhyme trembled.
His sunglasses reflected the red light flashing in the eyes of the puppet army, a dangerous frequency identical to that of when Pain attacked Kumogakure.
Hinata suddenly gasped, her Byakugan locking onto the chakra flowing through the crevice in the rock: The trigger pattern of the trap... is heartbeat frequency! Her shy voice was exceptionally clear in the deathly silence; when multiple heartbeats synchronize, it will activate...
Before he could finish speaking, dozens of puppets suddenly exploded.
The flying debris reassembled in mid-air into barbed chains, each end of which was connected to a spinning Truth-Seeking Ball.
Tsunade's powerful punch shattered the three nearest black spheres, but the shattered energy coalesced into a phantom image of Princess Kaguya.
Don't look directly at it! Kakashi's Kamui vortex engulfed the phantom, but the face beneath the mask was already deathly pale.
The blood and tears flowing from his Sharingan spread across his mask, and in a daze, he saw his friend who was always late standing at the end of the Kamui dimension.
Naruto's Rasengan and Sasuke's Chidori Spear simultaneously struck the spatial node, and the chaotic flow of chakra propelled everyone into an unknown passageway.
In that instant of weightlessness, Hinata's Byakugan caught a glimpse of a black robe flitting through the depths of the rock formations. The space-time techniques embroidered on the fabric matched those recorded in the scrolls of the Sage of Six Paths...
Chapter 339 The Forming Technique
The aftershocks of the explosion reverberated in the tunnel with a bronze-colored echo. Kakashi staggered and grabbed the seeping rock wall for support, his Kamui vortex disintegrating into tiny beads of blood in his palm.
He saw the sparks that flew when Sasuke's Kusanagi sword pierced the crack in the rock, and those leaping points of light actually condensed in the void into the shape of the kunai that Obito was used to use.
"Kurama!" Naruto roared, condensing the tailed beast's chakra into sharp claws, but just as they pierced through the black-robed man's chest, they were bound by some kind of viscous substance.
The man's mask cracked open by half an inch, revealing writhing sealing runes beneath his bluish-purple skin—clearly the lost Bagua seal of the Uzumaki clan, yet mixed with the serpentine patterns unique to Orochimaru's cursed seal.
The man in black flicked his finger at the chakra claw, and Naruto's entire right arm's meridians suddenly twisted into a spiral shape.
As he staggered backward, he caught a glimpse of the six tomoe spinning in Sasuke's eyes; those blood-red tomoe resonated with the patterns on the enemy's mask.
The Nine-Tails growled a warning in the space of consciousness, its golden-orange chakra uncontrollably spreading across the corners of its eyes.
"The worst of the worst!" Sasuke's Chidori suddenly changed direction, and azure lightning exploded three inches from Naruto's nose.
Dark red liquid seeped from between the broken rock layers; it was groundwater mixed with dragon vein chakra.
Temari's fan swirled up a rain of blood, but when it touched the black-robed man's cloak, it strangely condensed into ice crystals.
Shikamaru's shadow was still stuck to the sealing array of the explosive tags, and blood from his bitten tongue was dripping down his kunai.
When the seventh black-robed figure emerged from the crater created by Tsunade, he saw the deer antler totem recorded in the Nara family's secret scrolls appear on the surface of the floating Truth-Seeking Balls.
My father said that this kind of totem would only appear in the ruins of battlefields where Yin-Yang Escape was out of control, and at this moment it was flashing with the rhythm of my heartbeat.
The Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!
Hinata's sharp cry rang out amidst the sound of bones shattering.
As she twirled her clothes, the bulging veins in her Byakugan reminded Naruto of Neji's expression on his deathbed.
She repelled the three men in black robes onto the lightning barrier created by the Raikage, and suddenly, amidst the burnt smell, phosphorus powder, commonly used by Sand Village puppeteers, exploded.
Killer Bee's eight-tailed tentacles suddenly froze in mid-air, and his sunglasses reflected the earth-release hand seals that Onoki was forming—which should have been the starting stance for the Two Scales Technique, but the old shadow's thumb was strangely bent in the opposite direction.
Inside the suspended Dust Release cube, the puppets of the father and mother, which Chiyo had modified before her death, were tearing apart the chakra net.
Don't let the illusion interfere! Kakashi ripped off his headband, and blood from his Mangekyou Sharingan spread out in a maple leaf shape on his collar.
His divine shuriken sliced through two black-robed men, but what splattered was not blood and flesh, but iron sand.
These iron sands condensed again during their fall, forming the jade patterns on the scorpion puppet scroll.
Naruto swallowed the metallic taste in his throat, and the Nine-Tails' chakra surged wildly through his meridians.
When the man in black attacked again, he discovered that he could see the burn mark on the man's little finger when he made the hand seals—the shape of the scar he had left when he accidentally injured Sasuke at the Valley of the End when he was seven years old.
The moment the Rasengan collided with the black-robed man's Wind Release technique, he heard Orochimaru mention the name of a forbidden technique at the Tenchi Bridge.
At that moment, Shikamaru's wire got tangled around Naruto's ankle.
This genius, who always complained about trouble, had now engraved the family's secret Shadow Binding Technique on his collarbone.
