Hozuki Castle, in the plaza.
Hyuga Mami and the others' location...
Sizzle, sizzle...
The chunks of flesh that had broken apart suddenly reassembled, forming the shape of Masked.
The reassembled chunks of flesh, with their horrifying appearance, immediately drew everyone's attention.
"What happened?!"
"Wasn't he supposed to be dead already?"
Looking at Masked, who had suddenly come back to life.
Shock appeared in everyone's eyes.
"..."
Hyuga Mami swept her Byakugan over him.
She immediately discovered that something was unusual about Masked.
Come back to life after dying?
That was indeed the case.
But...
His appearance was somewhat strange...
Bam!! Splurt!!
At that very moment.
A figure descended from the sky.
With a dull sound, he stomped Masked's head apart.
Hyuga Sho, who had jumped down from Tenshukaku, immediately noticed the negative figure beneath his feet whose head had been blown apart.
[Detected Masked's Kekkei Genkai. Plunder?]
"Plunder!"
Looking at the text that had appeared from the system, Hyuga Sho chose to plunder without hesitation.
Very soon.
An inexplicable energy entered Hyuga Sho's body from Masked's mangled corpse.
[Masked: Star Point: Can freely adjust body shape, appearance, Chakra Fluctuation, imitate the opponent's techniques...]
After scanning Star Point's description.
Hyuga Sho nodded, immediately understanding its function.
It was an integrated Disguise Technique.
There was nothing worth boasting about when it came to simple disguise.
After all, Hyuga Sho himself had mastered many related techniques.
Starting with the most basic Transformation Technique, one of the Three Body Techniques.
Orochimaru's Stealth Jutsu.
Orochimaru's Vanishing Facial Copy Technique.
Shikotsumyaku's adjustment of bones and flesh... and so on.
However.
The disguises mentioned above could only adjust one's original body shape upward.
For example, Hyuga Sho was 175 centimeters tall.
It was absolutely impossible for him to physically become a one-meter-tall child.
