Pure Strength

Especially Kitsuchi and Terumi Mei, those two are the treasures of their villages.

Sasori of the Red Sands's identity is no longer a secret, and it's unrealistic to keep it a secret in front of a group of Jonin for long.

Finally, after crossing a sand dune, the group saw the battlefield.

The three towering Ice Release giants confirmed the identity of the person confronting Sasori of the Red Sands.

Seeing this, both Kitsuchi and Terumi Mei a sigh of relief.

Both of them were very familiar with Uchiha Shingen's strength.

With him around, our precious child will naturally be worry-free.

The Sand Ninja, on the other hand, were seeing the Ice Release of the Leaf Village's White Ghost, who was already famous throughout the Ninja World, for the first time.

Looking at those three giants, they all felt a chill run down their spines.

How many people would be killed if this thing appeared on the battlefield?

"Is this the strength of the Leaf Village's White Ghost...?" A Sand Village Jonin n't help but utter a shameful remark.

It's not shameful at all; that's what everyone in the crowd thought when they saw Uchiha Shingen make a move for the first time.

Kitsuchi and Terumi Mei remained calm about this.

Especially the Kitsuchi, since Leaf Village's last battle was against the Rock Ninja. Uchiha Shingen didn't even need to use this thing to defeat an entire Rock Ninja squad.

That's what you call brutal.

Kitsuchi just thought about it for a moment, and what if his father hadn't been there, Uchiha Shingen had unleashed this thing and attacked the Rock Ninja headquarters...

Well, this is quite worrying.

He can only hold off one person with that.

"Is that Sasori of the Red Sands?" someone suddenly asked.

Everyone Jonin, so their eyesight is good.

After all, poor eyesight can be compensated for with Ninjutsu.

Hiruko disappeared, and Sasori revealed his true form, allowing them to see it clearly.

Everyone was astonished to learn that the creator of the fearsome Human Puppet was such a handsome young man.

Appearances can indeed be deceiving.

These days, few bad people look like bad people.

Sasori of the Red Sands is even worse. He doesn't just not look like a bad guy; his looks are also incredibly good.

"Lord Kazekage, shall we not advance?"

Beside Rasa, a Sand Village Jonin something under his breath.

A group of people from another village actually started commenting on Scorpion's appearance, which made him very unhappy.

You were just a moment ago acting like frantic dogs, saying that so-and-so from your family had gone missing.

So relaxed now?

"Since the White Ghost from Leaf Village is making his move, let's observe the situation first," Rasa said. "Give the order to surround this area and prevent Sasori from escaping."

"Yes, Lord Kazekage." The Sand Village Jonin the order and went to set up the encirclement.

Rasa watched his retreating figure, suppressing the urge to make sarcastic remarks.

This idiot! Can't you see how relaxed these people from other villages are?

Isn't it better to pretend you don't know sometimes?

"Lord Kazekage!" Suddenly, another Sand Village Jonin shouted.

"What's wrong?" Rasa turned around, very dissatisfied with the performance of his own Jonin, who was not as composed as these people from other villages.

Then he saw that his fellow Jonin all looked like they had seen a ghost.

Realizing something was wrong, he looked back at the field.

When I looked at it, my eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

At this moment, Sasori, who had summoned the Third Kazekage Human Puppet, was not in a good mood either.

This was originally prepared for Rasa.

Now, however, they have no choice but to expose it prematurely.

He also saw the Sunagakure ninjas and other ninjas from other villages who had already arrived.

But he didn't care.

The encirclement is ridiculous. After transforming himself into a puppet, he could easily use Reverse Summoning Technique to transfer himself out as an object.

He stayed here only to get the child, and also to have a good test of Leaf Village's White Ghost's Ice Release Ninjutsu.

With a series of clicking sounds, the Third Kazekage, now Human Puppet, leaned down, seemingly covering Sasori's body.

The Chakra Threads firmly controlled the Third Kazekage, while simultaneously activating the Human Puppet's flesh and blood, beginning to refine Chakra and using Magnet Release: Iron Sand Technique.

Unlike the combat in the confined environment of the original timeline, the Third Kazekage Human Puppet now utilizes a favorable environment to unleash the full power of this Ninjutsu.

Under the influence of the Third Kazekage Chakra's unique chakra, black Iron Sand rose from the desert.

Uchiha Shingen watched intently.

After the Five Great Ninja Villages entered the Second era, the Second Five Kage at that time, apart from Senju Tobirama who was in charge of wholesale, all had their own unique skills in the development of Ninjutsu.

Sand Magnet Release is one of the most outstanding new Ninjutsu created in the era after Senju Hashirama.

This Ninjutsu, which combines control, attack, defense, and sealing, is more valuable overall than Iwagakure's Dust Release and Cloud Village's Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

It was also one of the outer village Ninjutsu that Uchiha Shingen most desired.

It doesn't matter whether it's Iron Sand or Gold Dust; they're all derivatives of the ability to use Sand Magnet Release.

Ahead, Sasori and the Third Kazekage Human Puppet figures were already submerged by the black waves formed from Iron Sand.

The scale of the black waves was not comparable to Gaara's future Desert Sand Funeral, but it was by no means a minor disturbance in the original timeline.

Unlike Desert Sand Funeral, it is not made of sand and gravel, but of countless tiny Iron Sand pellets.

It also demonstrates its lethality through squeezing or crushing.

The way Iron Sand Technique kills is more direct.

The next moment, countless Iron Sand pellets were launched from the waves.

The dense, swarming Iron Sand obscured the sun amidst a sharp, piercing sound.

On the outskirts, both the Sand Ninja setting up the encirclement and the ninjas from other villages watching from the sidelines were all awestruck by this spectacular sight.

Those who had never seen the Third Kazekage finally understood why he was Kazekage Third Kazekage his Iron Sand Technique.

"It lives up to its reputation." Uchiha Shingen praised, looking at the overwhelming cloud of Iron Sand sweeping across the sky.

The three Ice Release giants, under his control, had raised their hands, each holding a large two-handed shield.

The Majestic Attire quickly covered the Ice Release giant's body.

No sooner had all this been completed than Iron Sand pellets rained down.

It's like sitting indoors when suddenly a torrential downpour starts outside the window.

Despite being inside the Ice Release giant and protected by multiple layers of defense, Uchiha Shingen still immediately felt the intense tremors transmitted from the outside world.

To outsiders, the three Ice Release giants were swallowed up by the black clouds, and not a trace of white was seen.

The Iron Sand that fell into the desert stirred up countless grains of sand, gradually turning them black.

In the end, the sky and earth were almost completely connected by clouds of Iron Sand.

The crowd couldn't tell which side was sky and which was earth; they only felt the ground shaking beneath their feet.

Suddenly, three incredibly bright lights flashed from the abyss-like black clouds!

Chapter 42 Pure Power

The Iron Sand disintegrated.

Three streaks of light vanished in an instant, followed by a blazing sword of incredible length and width that completely cleaved through the seemingly bottomless darkness, allowing sunlight to once again bathe the earth.

What appeared before everyone was a grotesque humanoid Chakra construct.

It was taller than the previous Ice Release Giant, had two wings on its back, and a large shield in its left hand from which a segmented whip extended.

It held that terrifying Great Flame Sword in its right hand.

Everyone was struck by the sheer size of the creation.

This was completely different from the Ice Release giants we'd seen before. Its structural lines were exquisite, and its ferocious shape was full of power. Scattered, huge blocks of ice were melting at its feet—the temperature of that flaming sword was just too high.

At this moment, Uchiha Shingen, along with the two children Kimimaro and Deidara, resided high within the crystal-like structure atop the giant's forehead.

From this perspective, Sasori and the Third Kazekage's Human Puppet are truly insignificant, as inconspicuous as grains of sand.

Unfortunately, this is still not a complete Susanoo, because it cannot use Ninjutsu or fly.

However, this is already Uchiha Shingen's strongest form using Susanoo.

Uchiha Shingen also discovered another thing—the shape of Susanoo can be completely determined according to the user's preferences. As long as the structure is planned before using the technique, there is no need for him to perform any unnecessary transformation operations.

As expected of the strongest Dōjutsu of the Eye of Mental Reflection.

This means that Uchiha Shingen could save a significant amount of Chakra.

Both children were very curious about their current situation.

Actually, they almost got into a fight when they were first recruited, mainly because Kimimaro thought Deidara was a traitor—he figured that since he could chat so well with Sasori, they must be in cahoots.

Fortunately, with Uchiha Shingen present, a fight didn't break out. Since they couldn't fight, the two kids made up again.

Then, just like the children on Blue Star, they experienced the allure of mechs.

Gundam Epyon, known as the Crimson Demon, still has a knack for capturing attention, and it's the perfect match for Uchiha Shingen's current Susanoo level, without a doubt.

Sasori looked at Epyon Susanoo before him and felt a sense of unease.

As a tech enthusiast, he believes in one principle: poor workmanship means poor performance, while the opposite means excellent performance.

Although this was a creation of Chakra, Sasori of the Red Sands was no shallow person.

It's just made of one material, why make it so complicated?

This thing even has an endoskeleton.

He wanted to retract his previous assessment: Leaf Village's White Ghost wasn't someone who could simply pile up trash just because his secret techniques were powerful.

"White Ghost, is this your art?" Scorpion asked, tilting his head back.

I don't know if the White Ghost can hear me, but they're artists, they certainly wouldn't make such a basic mistake; the communication function must have been designed in.

"That's right, Sasori, this is my unique secret technique, Epyon Susanoo." Uchiha Shingen began to spout nonsense, "You'll soon see the power of this design."

Throughout history, the Uchiha Clan has used Susanoo in essentially the same way.

But Uchiha Shingen declared that starting today, he would begin to change.

They fought the same way that other Gundam pilots did; that's collective wisdom.

Scorpions are the perfect test subjects.

"I'm coming, Scorpion."

Epyon Susanoo moved.

The moment it moved, it startled everyone.

Because it's too agile; its movements are completely different from those of the Ice Release Giant from before.

Behind the scorpion, the black curtain formed by Iron Sand rose again.

It crashed headlong into the flaming sword formed by the Scorch Release Kagutsuchi Epyon Susanoo was swinging at it.

But the moment the two came into contact, the Iron Sand curtain was easily cut through, and the Iron Sand fell down like rain.

Epyon Susanoo then swept away the Iron Sand that was trying to entangle it, as if it were dusting with a feather duster. After a few strokes, it had basically removed the iron sand that was trying to entangle it. Occasionally, the iron sand that could hit it was no longer powerful and was blocked by Susanoo's Majestic Attire.
