This palm did not hit anyone, but hit the water stains melted by the fire ball just now. The strong wind carried the water flow, and it instantly covered the entire roof of the car. However, in the low temperature of the extreme north, the water did not freeze, because Naruto mixed a trace of extremely weak fire attribute Chakra into Wind Release, maintaining the fluidity of the water.
"Now!"
Sasuke raised his right hand high, and the lightning exploded.
"Chidori Stream!"
The blue current spread instantly along the water flow to the entire roof of the car. Although the puppets had Chakra Armor, they were not insulators. High-voltage current penetrated into the body along the skates under their feet, and the delicate circuit boards were short-circuited instantly.
Zizzizi--
The puppets twitched and emitted black smoke, and fell stiffly to the ground one by one, turning into scrap metal.
"Huh..." Naruto was lying on the roof of the car in a large font, breathing heavily, "You cooperate well."
"You're too slow." Sasuke came over and kicked the remains of a puppet, "These things are just gatekeepers. I'm afraid there are more troublesome things in the carriage."
"Then we have to go in. It's too cold outside." Naruto got up, walked to an entrance that was blown open, and looked down, "It was pitch black and smelled of oil."
"Let's go."
The two jumped into the train.
There was no accumulation of cargo as expected in the carriage, but instead it looked like a moving Laboratory. There were huge glass jars on both sides, with limbs of various animals soaked in them, some of which were still twitching slightly.
"That's disgusting." Naruto frowned, "Code What on earth does that guy want to do? Open a zoo?"
"He is screening." Sasuke walked to a console and looked at the data on it, "These are tests of the adaptability of "Black Oil". It seems that not all creatures can withstand that kind of force."
"What about "Subject 01"?"
"In the front compartment." Sasuke pointed to the front, "And, according to the record here, that thing has woken up."
The train passed through the wind and snow, like a black worm burrowing into the white wasteland.
The lights inside the carriages flickered on and off, and the voltage was extremely unstable. Naruto and Sasuke passed through one carriage after another. The further they went, the lower the temperature became. This coldness was not the coldness of the outside weather, but a coldness that made people's hair stand on end, as if there was some kind of death in the air.
"This doesn't feel right." Naruto stopped and pressed his hand on the wall. Through the thick gloves, he could feel the metal wall vibrating slightly, like some kind of huge heart beating.
"What's wrong?" Sasuke turned around.
"It's too quiet." Naruto looked around, "There were so many defensive measures on the roof of the car, but there weren't even any guards when we got inside? Even those puppets should have two, right?"
"Maybe it's not necessary." Sasuke said lightly, "If it is to imprison something extremely dangerous, usually there will be no guards arranged to avoid being affected."
Just as he was talking, the air-tight door in front suddenly let out a frustrated hiss and slowly opened to both sides.
What is behind the door is not a carriage, but a pitch-black void.
"This is..." Naruto took out a fluorescent stick and threw it in.
Green light cut through the darkness and illuminated a corner of the space. This turned out to be a hollowed-out carriage, or in other words, the carriage itself was a huge cage. The floor was covered with dense Fuinjutsu patterns, and in the center, there was a torn metal restraint chair.
The restraint straps on the chair were neatly cut, as if they had been cut by a sharp knife.
"Empty." Sasuke walked into the room and squatted next to the restraint chair. He stretched out his fingers and wiped the residue on the chair. It was black liquid that had solidified, but it felt cold and biting. "That was left by "Subject 01"."
"It ran away?" Naruto looked around warily.
"No, it's here."
Sasuke As soon as he finished speaking, the train shook violently. The inertia caused by the sudden braking made the two of them almost fly out. The harsh sound of metal friction was almost piercing the eardrums.
"Are we here? Where are we?"
The train came to a complete stop. The armor plates on the sides collapsed, revealing the scene outside.
It was no longer a monotonous snowfield. They stopped in a huge ice cave. Above their heads was hundreds of meters of ice, emitting a faint blue light. Surrounded by abandoned buildings, they were industrial facilities left behind by Land of Snow decades ago. Huge gears and pipes were frozen on the cliff, like a dead steel forest.
"Land of Snow The underground ruins of the old capital." Sasuke walked out of the train, "This was the place where the Chakra amplifier was developed."
"I remember this place." Naruto looked at the familiar buildings, "Back then, Kazahana Koyuki and I... I mean the current daimyo, we filmed a movie here, and even defeated that uncle in armor."
"Let's talk about old times later." Sasuke pointed to the front, "Look over there."
In the center of the ruins, where the "Rainbow Ice Wall" generator should have been placed, now stands a black Tower. It is not a building, but a nest formed by the hardening of some huge biological tissue. Countless black blood vessels spread out from the tower body and penetrate into the surrounding ice, seeming to be absorbing something.
"It's eating this ruins." Naruto felt a chill, "It's absorbing the geothermal energy and residual Chakra underground."
"That "Subject 01" is inside." Sasuke pulled out Kusanagi Sword, "Let's go."
As soon as the two took a step, the surrounding snow suddenly exploded.
No enemies appeared, but the temperature in the air dropped sharply.
"Naruto, get out of the way!" Sasuke pushed Naruto hard.
A transparent ice spike burst out of the ground where Naruto was standing just now, so fast that even the afterimage could not be seen. If Sasuke hadn't pushed it away, Naruto would have been strung into candied haws.
"Invisible?" Naruto climbed up and leaned against Sasuke.
"No, it's assimilation." Sasuke's Sharingan turned rapidly, "The enemy's Chakra is completely integrated with the surrounding ice and snow environment. It's hard for my eyes to catch it."
There was a giggle in the air, like a child or a beast.
"The famous Hokage and Uchiha smell... so delicious."
Voices came from all directions, carrying heavy echoes.
"Come out!" Naruto roared angrily and punched the ground, "Frog Kumite!"
The invisible Natural Energy shock wave spread and shattered the surrounding ice. Behind an ice rock on the left, a shadow swayed.
"Over there!"
Sasuke instantly threw several shurikens, and the shurikens were wrapped around Lightning Release.
Ding ding ding!
The shuriken was blocked by a black ice shield that appeared out of thin air. The shield was not an entity, but was made of some black fluid that solidified instantly.
A figure slowly walked out from behind the ice rock.
It was a child who looked to be only about ten years old. But his - or rather, his - body was creepy. The left half of his body was pale skin, while the right half of his body was completely made of that black oily substance. The right eye was a huge, bright red mechanical prosthetic eye that was rotating crazily, focusing on the two of them.
