Boom! Boom! Boom!
The rocks inside the cave were shattered by the black tentacles that Shinnō had created.
Samui moved swiftly between the tentacles and falling rocks, wielding his short knife to cleave through some unavoidable rubble.
Seeing that his attack had failed, Shinnō's expression grew increasingly grim.
"Annoying flies! Go to hell!"
Shinnō roared, and more tentacles surged from his back, like a black wave crashing down on Samui.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
Qing, who had been waiting in the wings, quickly raised his hands and formed hand seals. The huge water dragon roared out, taking advantage of Gonbei's Water Release.
It crashed directly into the black wave emitted by Shinnō from the side, deflecting it.
"Miss Samui! Attack his chest, three inches to the right!"
Although Shinnō's specific weaknesses were unclear, in Qing's Byakugan, Shinnō, who was still absorbing the Tailed Beast Chakra, had a most dazzling spot on his chest.
That's where the attack will take place!
"Learn!"
Samui sidestepped the few tentacles heading her way, and at the same time threw out several Kunai.
Each weapon was tied with a sizzling Explosive Tag at the end, and it sped towards Shinnō.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A series of explosions rang out, and the rune chains that were suppressing Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, flickered violently at that moment.
The light above flickered unpredictably.
"Ninja Art: Wild Lion's Mane Technique!"
Jiraiya's white hair suddenly grew longer and cut towards the link again.
The next instant, a scream that seemed inhuman rang out, abruptly interrupting the extraction ritual.
The man on the stone platform, with his eyes closed, clearly showed that his pain had lessened somewhat.
"Success!"
With Byakugan, Qing could clearly tell that the massive energy flow had been interrupted.
Inside the cave, Jiraiya's figure hung upside down, watching the battlefield within.
Upon seeing the figure inside the cave, Jiraiya knew that the disciple he had imagined was not there.
Therefore, from beginning to end, he was watching both battlefields from the rear, using Ninjutsu at the most opportune moment to stop the two Akatsuki members from counterattacking.
"Ninja Technique: Sage Art: Hair Needle Senbon!"
Jiraiya raised his hand again to form a hand seal, and his stiff white hair shot out like Senbon sage sticks.
This interrupted Shinnō's attempt to reconnect the black tentacles once again.
His eyes kept scanning the surrounding area, where several tiny Toads were silently approaching.
The intelligence Toads on Mount Myōboku have always been one of his intelligence-gathering methods.
"Hiruko, I didn't expect him to actually develop the Chimera Technique. Although the abilities are quite mixed, they are still well integrated."
Jiraiya watched as Hiruko fought fiercely Hiruko Hagoromo and the other two, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised and uncertain.
"And this Shinnō... the evil aura just now was emitted by him. This technique is quite like a combination of Forbidden Jutsu and Summoning Technique."
The entire cave trembled violently from the fierce battle between the two sides.
Hiruko's figure stopped once again, his breathing slightly labored.
These guys are really annoying!
However, Hiruko's gaze was mostly fixed on Hagoromo, that guy!
He looked the youngest in the room, but his methods were the most difficult to deal with!
They always manage to exploit their own most fatal weaknesses to launch attacks, and it all looks incredibly easy for them.
"Storm Release: Black Spotted Blade!"
While Hiruko, Darui once again used Storm Release to attack Hiruko.
Hiruko heavily, used a Swift Release to dodge again, and then countered with a Storm Release.
"Use Storm Release in front of me! Enough already!"
Darui narrowed his eyes slightly, and a Water Formation Wall rose up in front of him, barely blocking the attack.
Gonbei, standing to the side, couldn't help but let out a heavy breath; this guy was even more troublesome than he had imagined.
"Thanks." Darui thanked Gonbei, who was finding it a bit too much to handle using Ninjutsu the whole time.
Hagoromo glanced at Darui and Gonbei, knowing that their Chakra was clearly running low.
He said, "I'll do it."
Hearing this, Darui finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Hiruko, looking at Hagoromo and saying, "What? Want to be a hero? Konoha's trash!"
"Three men couldn't defeat me, yet you dare to boast so arrogantly!"
Hiruko deeply offended by Hagoromo's behavior, comparing it to her own experience at Hagoromo's age.
At the same age, yet even more outstanding than I was at that time!
Thinking of this, Hiruko immediately raised his hand and released a laser net composed of Storm Release.
Hagoromo neither dodged nor avoided this, since the person in front of her thought that having fused several Kekkei Genkai would make her invincible.
Let him see for himself that the so-called bloodline limit is really nothing special.
Recalling the Chakra ratio he sensed when Roshi used Lava Release, Hagoromo immediately raised his hands and formed hand seals.
"Lava Release: Scorching River Rock Technique!"
Several enormous magma spheres appeared out of thin air and crashed straight into the laser net.
The high-temperature magma and the high-pressure water laser collided, instantly generating a large amount of explosive steam, and the two techniques annihilated each other.
Upon seeing this, Hiruko's pupils constricted sharply, and he shouted in disbelief at Hagoromo, "Lava Release! You're from Iwagakure!"
Hagoromo did not respond, but raised her hands again to form a hand seal, as if she were conducting an experiment.
"Ice Release: Ice Thorn Spear"
Several ice spears made of ice blocks shot swiftly toward Hiruko, their impact sending chills down his spine.
Hiruko hurriedly activated his Steel Release harden his arms and parry.
The ice spear shattered, but the accompanying chill instantly hardened Hiruko's skin, causing his movements to falter noticeably.
Ice Release! Who are you?!
Hiruko's voice carried a hint of surprise and uncertainty.
He has been fusing his Kekkei Genkai all these years, completely ignoring the developments in the Shinobi World in recent years.
The last time they appeared, Konan brought Uchiha Itachi to their door.
Within the Akatsuki, he only focused on the Kekkei Genkai in his hand and didn't inquire about anything else.
Faced with Hiruko's questioning, Hagoromo frowned.
Since he had already considered having Karin try the combination of Chakra properties, he needed to understand it first.
This way, once Karin reaches a certain level, we can give her some ideas.
However, neither the Lava Release nor the Ice Release was as powerful as he had imagined.
You should know that the amount of Chakra I just used was enough for me to use Wind Release or Water Release technique that could destroy the entire cave.
However, the Ice Release produced by combining the two can only achieve this level of power. Is it because the Chakra ratio is incorrect?
Shaking his head to stop thinking about it, Hagoromo looked at Hiruko, a slight smile Hagoromo on his lips.
"It seems your Steel Release is quite vulnerable to Freeze?"
He had clearly seen Hiruko's momentary hesitation.
"Asshole!"
Hagoromo saw Hiruko's behavior as a mockery of her, and roared in anger.
He activated Swift Release, instantly appearing beside Hagoromo, and kicked him in the Hagoromo.
