Chapter 1114 The Magic Box

Without taking a breath, everyone quickly chased after the mysterious man in black robes. When they got closer, the mysterious man slowly turned around, revealing a face covered with runes, with a strange light in his eyes. "You are really difficult to deal with." The mysterious man said coldly, forming seals with his hands, and instantly summoned a group of more peculiar puppet ninjas. These puppets flashed with strange light, as if they contained unknown power.

Sasuke's eyes flashed, and he rushed forward first. His Sharingan rotated rapidly, and he performed the Fire Release Technique. Naruto was not to be outdone, and cooperated with Sasuke to use the Rasengan to attack. Shikamaru calmly analyzed and directed his teammates to find the flaws of the mysterious man. Just when the battle was stalemate, the mysterious man suddenly opened an ancient box beside him and took out a scroll exuding a mysterious atmosphere. He unfolded the scroll and muttered something in his mouth, and the power of the puppet ninjas suddenly increased. Everyone fell into a more difficult situation, but they did not retreat. They trusted each other, united as one, and prepared to meet this more severe challenge. Just as everyone was struggling to support, Sakura found that the mysterious man was chanting to maintain the power of the puppets. She made a quick decision and rushed towards the mysterious man with her strange power. Just as she was about to get close, the mysterious man sensed the danger and sent out several puppets to stop Sakura. At the critical moment, Tiantian opened the ninja tool bag and shot darts to distract the puppets. Sakura took the opportunity to get close to the mysterious man. Just as she was about to attack the mysterious man, the mysterious man suddenly disappeared and appeared behind Shikamaru, raising his hand to attack. In a flash, Ino used the mind-turning technique to control the mysterious man, making him temporarily unable to move. Naruto seized this brief opportunity, gathered the strength of everyone, gathered the chakra in his body together, and formed a huge Rasengan. Naruto roared and pushed the Rasengan towards the mysterious man and his puppets. The huge impact instantly smashed the puppets to pieces. Seeing that the situation was not good, the mysterious man performed ninjutsu again and disappeared. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this battle was just the beginning, and there would be more unknown challenges waiting for them. Just as everyone recovered, the ground suddenly shook violently. The mysterious man drilled out from the ground, and he was accompanied by a huge stone beast puppet. The stone beast exuded a terrifying aura, and every step shook the earth. The mysterious man laughed arrogantly: "You guys think you can beat me?"

The stone beast opened its huge mouth and spewed out streams of hot magma. Everyone quickly dispersed to avoid it. Sakura and Tenten cooperated tacitly and used ninjutsu to build a barrier to resist the magma. Sasuke gathered the power of lightning and rushed towards the stone beast, trying to attack its weakness. Naruto gathered chakra again, preparing to launch a stronger Rasengan.

Just as everyone was fighting the stone beast with all their strength, the mysterious man took the opportunity to summon a group of small puppets to attack everyone from all directions. Shikamaru directed his teammates to respond while thinking about how to defeat the enemy. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he found that there was a thin line connecting the mysterious man and the stone beast, which seemed to be the key to controlling the stone beast.

Shikamaru immediately ordered Ino to control the mysterious man with the mind-turning technique, and at the same time asked Naruto to concentrate on attacking the thin line. Naruto seized the opportunity and smashed the strengthened Rasengan at the thin line. With a "click", the thin line broke, and the stone beast stopped moving instantly and fell to the ground. Seeing this, the mysterious man's face changed drastically, and he used ninjutsu again to escape... But Sasuke reacted very quickly, instantly opened his Sharingan, predicted the mysterious man's escape route, and used the Chidori Sharp Spear. A sharp lightning penetrated the air and approached the mysterious man. The mysterious man was unable to dodge and was hit by the Chidori Sharp Spear, and his body shook. Just when he was injured, Naruto rushed forward and kicked him to the ground with a flying kick. The mysterious man struggled to get up, but Shikamaru had already firmly controlled him with the shadow imitation technique.

"Tell me! Who are you? What's your conspiracy?" Naruto shouted with his eyes wide open. The mysterious man just sneered, "Do you think defeating me is the end? This is just the beginning." Just as everyone wanted to continue questioning, a powerful energy suddenly burst out from the mysterious man, and his body began to dissipate. "Oh no, he's going to self-destruct!" Shikamaru shouted. Everyone quickly dispersed, and after a violent explosion, the mysterious man disappeared without a trace. In the distance, several black-robed figures appeared vaguely, as if foreshadowing a greater crisis was about to come. Everyone stared at the black-robed figures vigilantly. They slowly approached and took off their hoods, revealing several familiar yet unfamiliar faces - the ninjas who had disappeared in the village. Their eyes were empty and they exuded a strange aura. They were obviously controlled by some evil force.

Sasuke frowned, "It seems that the conspiracy behind this is bigger than we thought." Naruto clenched his fists, "No matter what, we must save them and stop the conspiracy behind this."

The battle was about to start, and the strength of these controlled ninjas should not be underestimated. They cooperated well and used tricky moves. They were in a tough battle, but they did not give up. With their trust in each other and years of combat experience, they gradually found the opponent's flaws.

As the battle was going on fiercely, the sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and a mysterious black shadow descended from the clouds. It was the real controller of the evil force. He looked at everyone coldly, "Do you think you can stop me? This has just begun." Everyone knew that greater challenges were still to come. They looked at each other with determination in their eyes, ready to face this more difficult battle. The mysterious controller waved his hands, and the controlled ninjas instantly pounced on everyone like wolves and tigers, and the attack was more fierce than before. The mysterious controller stood aside and sneered, as if he was sure that everyone could not resist.

Naruto unleashed the Nine-Tails Chakra, knocking back the enemies around him. Sasuke activated Susanoo, and his huge figure stood on the battlefield, providing solid protection for his teammates. Shikamaru quickly thought of a response strategy and directed everyone to cooperate with each other.

Just as everyone was struggling to hold on, the mysterious manipulator suddenly cast a powerful illusion. All kinds of hallucinations appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and they began to lose themselves. At this critical moment, Sakura was the first to wake up with her strong willpower. She shouted loudly, trying to wake up her teammates. With Sakura's shouting, everyone gradually got rid of the control of the illusion.

Seeing this, the mysterious controller's face changed and he decided to take action himself. He flashed in front of Naruto and punched him hard. Naruto quickly blocked with his arms, but was shocked by the huge force and retreated again and again. Seeing this, Sasuke immediately controlled Susanoo to attack the mysterious controller, and a more intense battle began.
