Shuyuan vs. Sasori

"Adamantine Sealing Chains."

The golden chains rattled and jingled, and although they were merely Chakra constructs, they were as hard as real metal, even surpassing the hardness of fine steel.

The Uzumaki Clan's unique secret technique is a super-powerful skill comparable to Kekkei Genkai. It combines offense and defense and also has the power to seal and bind.

Of course, even within the Uzumaki Clan, not every member can master the Adamantine Sealing Chains Technique. Just like the Uchiha Clan, many members never awakened their Sharingan from birth to death.

Shuyuan was no ordinary clansman; he inherited the bloodline power of Katsuki and mastered the Adamantine Sealing Chains at the age of five.

Four chains extended from Shuyuan's back, coiled up like a disc, and transformed into a shield held horizontally in front of her.

The poisoned ninja tool was easily deflected by the golden chain shield, leaving not even a scratch. The poison on the tool had no effect on the pure Chakra- based chain.

"Hey, Sasori of the Red Sands- senpai, is this all the puppets you've ever made? That's a bit pathetic. Or are all Puppet Master this poor? No wonder your father killed your parents. Useless things are always eliminated. How disappointing."

Shuyuan is now like a venomous snake, constantly mocking Scorpion and spewing venom.

Strategically despise the enemy, but tactically take them seriously.

This was a principle that Katsuki had taught him since childhood. Although he was being sarcastic, he dared not relax his senses for a moment.

To be honest, Scorpion isn't as useless as he mocked him for.

Not long after the battle began, Naruto and Sasuke were both defeated. They were indeed geniuses, but at best they could only fight Chunin. Top-tier powerhouses like Sasori were beyond their reach.

Only Shuyuan withstood the fierce attacks from Scorpion and launched a counterattack, tearing Scorpion's puppets to shreds.

However, the results were limited to this; they were unable to eliminate any more puppets.

For Puppet Master, puppets are their means of combat. If a puppet is destroyed, the Puppet Master's power is essentially destroyed by more than half. Therefore, the puppet's materials are of extremely high quality. As a puppet meticulously crafted by Sasori, it is definitely the best in Sunagakure.

Even B-rank Ninjutsu can only damage the puppet, but cannot completely destroy this exceptionally tough puppet.

"...Kid, since you're so eager to die, I'll grant your wish!!"

Scorpion's ferocious face returned to calm, and a sharp killing intent flashed in his cold eyes.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

A large-bellied puppet with three heads opened its mouth and spat out more than a dozen round balls that fell to the ground.

Upon landing, the sphere exploded due to the impact, releasing a large amount of purple smoke.

"Poisonous smoke? Ugh, how inhumane! To target a little kid like me, they really have the nerve to do that."

Shuyuan's expression was solemn. If it were just him alone, dealing with the poisonous smoke wouldn't be too difficult. His father had also given him special training in this area. But... the problem now lay with the three unconscious wounded men lying not far behind him by the swing set.

Suzuran, Naruto, and Sasuke were all unconscious.

Suzuran appears to be trapped by Genjutsu, while Naruto and Sasuke were knocked unconscious by the shockwave from the Explosive Tag.

"It should have been about five minutes, why hasn't anyone come yet..."

The fact that a large barrier was set up in the central area of Konoha and remained undetected for five minutes proves that the enemy is quite formidable, and waiting for reinforcements seems hopeless for the time being.

Looks like we have no choice but to fight it out!

Shuyuan licked his blood-stained lips; the metallic taste heightened his focus, and he swiftly Hand Seals: "Wind Release, Great Breakthrough."

A mighty wind, like a long river, swept up dust, directly confronting the rapidly spreading toxic smoke and pulling the deep purple fumes back.

"Shadow Clone Technique"

After slightly suppressing the spread of the poisonous smoke, he summoned more than twenty Shadow Clone.

In terms of mastery of the Shadow Clone Technique, he is no less skilled than Naruto; in fact, he is arguably even more proficient.

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough"

"Fire Style: Flame Bullet"

The Shadow Clone Hand Seals, unleashed Ninjutsu, and relentlessly bombarded the area filled with poisonous smoke.

The wind and fire stirred up a swirling vortex of intense heat, burning away all the toxic smoke. Rolling heat waves swept around, and nearby trees swayed in the scorching heat, their emerald leaves curling up due to the high temperature. A faint smell of burning mixed with the stench of the burning toxic smoke permeated the air.

"Wind Release: Unleash the Wind."

The foul-smelling air was blown far away by the strong wind.

"Beautiful, truly beautiful techniques. Wind Release and Fire Style, plus the Lightning Release and Earth Release you used before... You really are a monster. Don't tell me you've even mastered Water Release?"

As the dust settled, Scorpion, surrounded by a swarm of puppets, stared directly at Shuyuan.

"Whether it works or not, we'll find out by trying, won't we?"

Shuyuan pressed her chest. When she used Earth Release to sneak over and save Suzuran, she was kicked by Sasori. The force was quite heavy, and her internal organs were injured at that time.

However, it doesn't hurt much anymore.

His self-healing ability is also exceptional.

"But is this all Sasori of the Red Sands from Sunagakure is capable of? He seems quite different from the legends!"

Shuyuan flexed her fingers, ready to act at any moment.

"Hmph, it seems I really have been underestimated."

The scorpion let out a series of cold laughs, its ten fingers moving as if playing a musical instrument, and began its attack again.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!!"

The puppets burst through the flames and smoke, brandishing their sharp weapons and claws, and pounced.

"Bang bang bang!!!"

Caught off guard, the Ninjutsu squad at the forefront was sliced into Chakra smoke and vanished by the puppets.

"Earth Release: Rock Pillar Spear"

The Shadow Clone behind reacted quickly, launching an attack instantly. Sharp, pointed rock spears appeared, but were quickly shredded by the sharp blades.

"Damn it, Earth Release: Earth Style Wall!"

The central clone quickly Hand Seals, opened its mouth and spat out refined Earth Release Chakra, which turned into blackish-gray soil when it landed on the ground. Along this line, a rock wall rapidly grew taller, and a twenty-meter-high rock wall blocked the puppets' path.

"Click click click!!!"

The rock walls trembled.

The rock wall trembled at an unimaginable frequency, and numerous cracks appeared, causing egg-sized pebbles to fall continuously.

"Boom!!"

A large hole was torn open in the rock wall, and the silvery light ground the solid rock to dust before slowly bringing its unstoppable momentum to a halt.

Now we can see Silverlight's true colors.

The vanguard's six-armed puppet, each arm equipped with a propeller-like trident blade, violently pierced through the rock wall with astonishing destructive force generated when spinning at high speed, creating a huge hole three meters in diameter.

The puppets swarmed through the hole, and the scorpion's silhouette was also faintly visible. (To be continued)
