La Black Luna
Although the match between Shiro and Rasa was the second match, it was actually the first match, because the original first match was between Minato and Taichi.
Faced with this situation, Taichi naturally chose to abstain. First, Taichi's injuries would not heal in a short period of time, and second, too much of Taichi's information had already been leaked.
In comparison, the Minato has a greater advantage.
Therefore, Shiro and his companions became the de facto first team.
To be honest, after these two days of observation and analysis, Shiro believes that he is the most suitable person to deal with Rasa.
This isn't arrogance, but rather the Noble Phantasm that Shiro prepared. It can be said that it is a natural counter to ninjas who rely on Chakra control, but it might not be able to defeat Taijutsu ninjas.
But Magnet Release? Heh, as long as the strength difference isn't too great, Shiro will crush him! That's how confident he is!
After all, the ninja's power system is a rather specialized system, with most ninjas having high attack but low defense, making them very fragile.
Furthermore, if their personal information is leaked, their strength will decrease by at least 20%, except for the direct descendants of the Otsutsuki.
After Shiro found a way to break Rasa's Magnet Release, Rasa's threat to Shiro decreased significantly. Even Sasori, who also required precise Chakra manipulation, was more threatening than Rasa. After all, even without his puppet, Sasori's poison was still a force to be reckoned with.
Therefore, Shiro was very satisfied with the match arrangements.
Shiro's reliance comes from a cute boy's Noble Phantasm, that's right, it's Astolfo!
What a cute boy! (I'll upload the picture to the book review section.)
Astolfo possesses many Noble Phantasm, and Shiro will be Projection one of them later.
Noble Phantasm: The Magic Flute That Awakens Panic - The La Black Luna (LaBlackLuna)
Grade: C
Holder: Astolfo, one of Charlemagne's Twelve Paladins. (From the legend of Charlemagne)
Image: Horn.
Legend: It means "Dark Moon". It was given to Astolfo by the good witch Logistilla and was used to drive away a large horde of Harpies. Normally it is the size that can be hung on the waist, but it will grow larger when used, enough to surround Astolfo.
Ability: A horn flute whose timbre is said to cause those who hear it to flee in terror. While Heroic Spirit resistant to Magecraft can remain unmoved, ordinary Magecraft will find it difficult to endure.
Shiro himself has tried this Noble Phantasm, and the target was himself.
According to Shiro's experiments, this Noble Phantasm would cause the Chakra heard its sound to become disordered, and at the same time, they would suffer from unbearable, splitting headaches.
Shiro didn't know if the Mana of Magecraft would also be disrupted in the Nasuverse, but that wasn't something Shiro was qualified to care about, at least not now.
Therefore, Shiro decided to set it aside and study it later; for now, all Shiro needed to know was its function.
Moreover, research requires experimental materials, but currently, Shiro only has himself to conduct experiments with.
Shiro no longer wanted to experience that feeling. Fortunately, Shiro could control the target of his Noble Phantasm, otherwise he really wouldn't have dared to use it.
Although this effect weakens over time, eventually leading to immunity, what if Rasa were flying high in the sky?
The Magic Flute Flute's effects don't diminish that quickly, so the moment Rasa takes flight is also the moment he falls.
In comparison, the sonic attack generated when Noble Phantasm is unleashed is not as effective, and Shiro can only barely unleash a C-rank Noble Phantasm at present.
However, Shiro thought of a Noble Phantasm that was a perfect match for it: the Blood Maiden!
However, that requires simultaneous liberation, and Shiro is still far from that level. (So I won't post the attributes here; I'll do so later.)
Therefore, Shiro's strategy was to do his best to make Rasa fly, and fly as high as possible!
Shiro wasn't worried that Rasa would fly too high and his Noble Phantasm wouldn't hit him, because Shiro knew Rasa's maximum attack range. Even if he could still attack beyond that range, he could only use wide-range offensive Ninjutsu.
That consumes a lot of Chakra; he won't need many, and even Shiro could withstand that kind of power.
Therefore, Shiro in this match is almost guaranteed.
Because the ability to fly is a very rare ability in the Shinobi World, as long as one can fly, one is basically invincible. And this is not the last round. Therefore, Shiro concluded that Rasa would not use his full strength unless absolutely necessary.
And that is where Shiro's confidence lies!
After Shiro and Rasa completed the procedure, as Shiro had expected, Rasa immediately stood on the Gold Dust and took flight.
However, Shiro did not rush to Projection his Noble Phantasm, because Rasa was not flying high enough yet.
Shiro dodged while searching for an opportunity to attack.
After flashing past a streak of Gold Dust, Shiro quickly Hand Seals.
"Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere!"
Unlike the Great Breakthrough, Vacuum Sphere is a single-target attack with excellent cutting ability and attack range, and it can also fire in rapid succession.
Shiro didn't expect this hastily used Ninjutsu to cause an effective attack. He only needed to push Rasa a little higher, and the rapid-fire characteristic of the Vacuum Sphere could play an excellent role here.
In the end, just as Shiro had predicted, Rasa continued to fly even higher.
After dodging Shiro's Vacuum Sphere, Rasa manipulated the Gold Dust to attack Shiro while taunting Shiro, trying to disrupt Shiro's rhythm.
At the same time, he was slowly lowering the altitude, clearly afraid of falling due to excessive Chakra consumption, and Shiro noticed this as well.
Therefore, although Rasa's height did not meet Shiro's expectations, it was close enough that he could at most finish him off with a single blow.
"Projection, begin."
Without hesitation, Shiro immediately put the horn flute to his lips and began to play it after the Projection was successful.
When Rasa saw the white light in Shiro's hand, he instinctively flew upwards a little. Then he heard a painful sound. At the same time, and more importantly, Rasa's Chakra suddenly went berserk within his body and he couldn't control it at all!
Therefore, Rasa's body, which was flying in the sky, suddenly stopped, and then fell down along with the scattered Gold Dust!
"This is!!!" Upon seeing this, Kazekage was startled and stood up, exclaiming in surprise. However, after carefully sensing the scene, she relaxed.
He had initially thought that Shiro had found a way to counter Magnet Release. If that were the case, the Kazekage would keep Shiro here no matter the cost!
However, when he sensed Rasa's condition, his killing intent dissipated. If it was just a Ninjutsu that interfered with Chakra, then it was no big deal.
After all, although this kind of Ninjutsu is rare, it can still be found in the Shinobi World. As long as one's Chakra control is strong enough, one can remain unaffected by it.
In contrast, Mitokado Homura became somewhat interested in Shiro, because as far as he knew, Emiya Shiro was just a commoner and had no way of learning these Ninjutsu.
What is certain is that Shiro did not betray the village. Mitokado Homura does not believe that any village would be so foolish as to send its own genius as an undercover agent.
Therefore, there is only one possibility.
Emiya Shiro didn't reveal all the family's Ninjutsu he found at the time, hiding a large portion of them. Of course, Mitokado Homura understood this; if it were him, he would have hidden some as well. (Just a heads-up, the reason will be explained in the next chapter, lest you be misled.)
This chapter is a little late. I took the day off and overslept, but don't worry, the second chapter should also be a little late `(*∩_∩*)′
