Chapter 1142 Human Sea Tactics
A sense of oppression washed over him. Naruto sensed this power, and his chakra circulated even more rapidly. The Nine-Tails roared, joining Naruto in resisting the pressure. Sasuke's Susanoo shone even brighter, its purple energy threatening to burst through the sky. However, Ghostface unleashed a wave of black energy, instantly knocking everyone back.
Just as everyone thought they were about to be struck, Kakashi suddenly stepped forward, unleashing Kamui with his Sharingan, transferring the energy wave to another dimension. However, Kakashi was weakened by the overuse of his Sharingan. At this moment, the stone tablet shifted again: shadows coalesced into a gigantic monster, extending its massive arms and clawing at the group.
Naruto took a deep breath and condensed a massive Rasengan. Sasuke, in turn, controlled Susanoo and unleashed a hail of purple arrows. Their combined power struck the monster, cracking it. Sakura, seizing the opportunity, charged forward, striking the monster's weak spot with a powerful punch. With everyone's combined strength, the monster finally collapsed, but the stone tablet shook again, suggesting a greater threat was brewing. Before anyone could even catch their breath, mysterious runes appeared on the stone tablet, shimmering with an eerie light. From them emerged a swarm of diverse monsters, claws and fangs bared. Naruto quickly created multiple shadow clones, each condensing a miniature Rasengan to engage in fierce combat with the monsters. Sasuke, controlling Susanoo, wielded his massive sword, slashing the approaching monsters one by one. Sakura tended to her injured companions while also using her healing ninjutsu to attack the approaching monsters. Though somewhat weakened, Kakashi, drawing on his vast combat experience, dispatched numerous small monsters with his Raikiri. However, a steady stream of small monsters emerged from the stone tablet, and the group gradually began to struggle. Just then, Shikamaru, who had remained silent, devised a plan. He used the Shadow Mimicry technique to control some of the monsters, allowing the others to concentrate their firepower. With the combined efforts of the group, the small monsters' attack was finally contained. But then the stone tablet glowed even brighter, signaling the birth of an even more terrifying being. As the light faded, a massive demon-like creature, emanating a dark aura, appeared before everyone. The ground trembled with every step it took. Naruto roared, enveloping himself in the Nine-Tails' chakra, creating nine tails as he charged towards the demon. Sasuke, also in his full Susanoo form, followed closely behind him like a purple war god. Kakashi, suppressing his discomfort, once again unleashed his Raikiri, coordinating the attack with Naruto and Sasuke. Sakura, from behind, continuously replenished everyone's chakra.
The demon was agile, easily dodging everyone's attacks, and even fired back rays of dark energy. Shikamaru hurriedly used the shadow binding technique to restrict the demon's movements, but the demon's power was too strong, and the shadow was quickly broken free. Just as the demon was about to launch a fatal attack, Ino, who had been observing the stone tablet, discovered the pattern of the runes and shouted to tell everyone how to break it. Everyone followed Ino's instructions and readjusted their tactics. Naruto, Sasuke, and Kakashi combined their strength to launch the strongest attack. Sakura used medical ninjutsu to increase her strength, finally breaking the demon's defense and defeating it. The stone tablet also slowly stopped moving in the light, and everyone collapsed to the ground, breathing a sigh of relief.
