Chapter 575: Death and Awakening

Chapter 575 Death and Awakening

 Click!

The chakra condensed in Yanku's body worked and helped him break through the hard ice.

 “Huhu.” Iwaku gasped with an uncomfortable look on his face.

Although he successfully broke through the ice, the greatest damage caused to him by the Ice Age was the cold air that invaded his body.

If you look carefully, you can see that Yanku's hands and feet are still shaking.

 Tick tock!

The ice cube that was freezing Lao Zi soon began to make the sound of water dripping, followed by the production of a large amount of white gas. The terrifying high temperature erupted from Lao Zi's body and melted the ice cube.

Mu Yue was not too surprised by this. The chakra of the four tails has the power of melting, and it is not difficult to break through the ice.

After all, although Ice Age is a powerful skill drawn from an S-level scroll, the proficiency of Mu Yue Ice Release is far inferior to his proficiency in changing the nature of ordinary chakra.

Moreover, Mu Yue has not developed a breathing method that can enhance ice escape.

Without as many blessings as other skills, it is really difficult for Ice Age to directly kill masters like Lao Zi and Yanku instantly.

Of course, it can only kill those who are too strong. Ordinary jounin and below are sent directly, and they cannot withstand the fatal cold air at all.

Like Yanku, although it cannot kill, it can still inflict heavy damage.

 “Yanku, you loser!” Lao Zi stared at Yanku with big eyes.

 Already injured, he was hit by the cold, and his condition became even worse.

The key is that Yan Ku was going to lead a team to kill Mu Yue, but the result was like this.

 Lao Zi now has the urge to kill Yan Ku.

He did accidentally injure Yanku, but Yanku not only failed to kill Mu Yue, but was also injured by Mu Yue.

But being impulsive, Lao Zi still spit out a lava fireball at Mu Yue who rushed towards the rock library.

Whoosh!

Mu Yue stopped and used the teleportation technique in the other direction.

Yanku is just the end of a powerful crossbow, and it’s not worth wasting too much of his state to kill him. Anyway, Yanku can’t escape.

 “Alas.” Yanku sighed deeply.

 From the hope of becoming famous in the ninja world at the end of the meeting, to now facing a life and death crisis after the siege failed.

 In just a few hours, he almost fell from heaven to hell.

At this moment, how he wished that it was not Rishi but him who was injured that day, so that he could rest peacefully in Iwagakure Village to recuperate.

But it is no longer possible. The Iwagakure troops will definitely be defeated in this battle, and whether he can survive is still unknown.

 “At least the whole army cannot be wiped out.” Iwaku said silently in his heart.

Although he thought about sharing the blame and tried his best to protect himself from the punishment of defeat, Iwakura thought about Iwagakure most of the time.

 After all, it was the village that I swore to protect since I was a child.

"Use the tailed beast tama, don't worry about anything else, use the tailed beast tama with all your strength! Then leave with the surviving Iwagakure." Iwaku ordered sternly.

 This is really his last and most extreme solution.

The tailed beast tama has a huge range and is extremely destructive. As long as Konoha does not want to die with Iwagakure, they can only retreat after Lao Zi releases the tailed beast tama.

Lao Zi looked at Iwaku in disbelief, never expecting that this guy would be even crazier than when he was affected by the tailed beast chakra.

 With one shot of Tailed Beast Jade, he may top the list of kills in this war.

 Because others can only kill one camp, and his tailed beast jade will take away a large wave of ninjas on both sides.

Before Lao Zi could reply, Yan Ku took the initiative to gather chakra to attack Mu Yue.

It also takes time to cast the Tailed Beast Jade. With the distance between Mu Yue and Lao Zi now, Mu Yue is fully capable of preventing Lao Zi from releasing the Tailed Beast Jade.

　　咻!

 Five stones containing explosive power were shot towards Mu Yue.

Mu Yue, who had white eyes and the blessing of a transparent world, ignored these attacks and perfectly dodged a flying stone every time she flashed.

While dodging, Mu Yue took out several kunai from her ninja tool bag, shooting three at Yanku and one at Lao Zi.

 Lao Zi felt the chill in his body and silently opened his mouth. A large amount of chakra gathered in front of his mouth, quickly forming a dark purple chakra ball.

 Although Yanku’s method is crazy, it is indeed a method.

 Otherwise, if the stalemate continues, the final result will be that both he and Iwaku will die in Muyue's hands, and Iwagakure's troops will not be able to break through.

 “Oops, tailed beast jade!” Kakashi frowned when he noticed that Lao Zi was trying to condense the tailed beast jade.

 He wanted to stop them, but there were a large number of Iwagakure ninjas near them that needed to be dealt with.

After all, Iwagakure has 800 more people than Konoha's ninja troops. If Konoha hadn't fought an ambush and had a head-on collision, I'm afraid Konoha's ninjas would have suffered a lot of damage by now.

 “Are you going to release the tailed beast?” The Iwagakure ninja who was further away was confused.

If Lao Zi wants to put the tailed beast tama here, then he has to take them away with the Konoha ninjas.

Whether it is the Konoha ninja or the Iwagakure ninja, they all subconsciously want to stay away from Lao Zi.

  If you really want to release the Tailed Beast Jade, you can run away in time.

　　Boom!

Those three kunai were extremely fast. In a hurry, Yanku had to throw out an explosive stone and detonate it. As a result, only two kunai were disturbed, and one kunai still flew towards Yanku.

Whoosh!

 When the kunai passed by the right side of Iwaku, Muyue appeared next to Iwaku in an instant, grabbed the kunai, and stabbed Iwaku. Yanku, on the other hand, is strangely unfazed and happy.

Iwaku never thought that he could kill Mu Yue head-on in a single battle. He couldn't do it in his heyday, and it was even less possible for him who was weakened by the Ice Age.

 But he is an explosive ninja, and he has an attack method that ordinary ninjas never have - self-destruction.

Those who are not very familiar with Explosive Ninjas would not have expected this method.

  After all, not every Explosion Ninja has the ability to self-destruct, and not everyone has the courage to self-destruct.

“If I can die together with Hanyu Mozuki, I will be worthy of Ōnoki-sama’s cultivation.” Iwaku thought in his mind.

At such a distance, Mu Yue did not expect that he had the ability to self-destruct, and he would definitely not have time to use the Flying Thunder God technique.

If Mu Yue had no other special defense skills, he should be able to achieve the limit of one for one.

 “Explosion Escape·Self-destruction!”

 Powerful explosive chakra erupted, and fierce white light emerged on Yanku's body.

Just when Yanku thought he was about to succeed, Mu Yue's body disappeared.

boom!

Mu Yue appeared next to Lao Zi and swung an explosive punch. The sudden heavy force knocked Lao Zi almost to the ground, and the tailed beast jade that was about to condense also dissipated in this last step.

Iwaku looked at Mu Yue in astonishment. He didn't understand why Mu Yue could see through his thoughts. Could it be that he had the ninjutsu to read minds through the air?

 The next moment, Yanku lost all doubts and worries, because he had exploded, literally.

 Boom!

A huge explosion sounded, and a dazzling white light flashed. The deputy captain of the Iwagakure demolition team disappeared, leaving only a huge black hole in the place.

He would never have imagined that under Mu Yue's glasses was a pair of white eyes that could see through chakra, let alone that Mu Yue could know most of his information just by looking at him.

Mu Yue saw through Iwa Ku’s idea from the beginning, so in addition to throwing three kunai at Iwa Ku, Mu Yue also threw a flying thunder **** kunai at Lao Zi.

This way, he forces the rock library to self-destruct and at the same time interrupts Lao Zi's release of the Tailed Beast Jade.

Kakashi’s hanging heart relaxed a little.

If Lao Zi really releases the tailed beast jade, they may not be in trouble with Mu Yue's protection, and the Konoha ninja troops will definitely suffer a lot of losses.

 “Lord Iwaku!”

The Aiwagakure ninja looked at this scene in disbelief. Unexpectedly, Iwagakure actually blew himself up.

"This waste...this guy..." Lao Zi, who had regained his footing, couldn't help but feel a little touched when he looked at the charred black pit.

Although Iwaku is indeed incompetent and brought the Iwagakure troops into the pit, he is not a useless waste.

 At the very least, Iwaku will fight tooth and nail to find the last way for the Iwagakure troops.

So, what about him...

 Lao Zi couldn't help but think of himself.

 Lao Zi, like many jinchūriki who were sealed with tailed beasts when they were young, had a miserable childhood, where they were looked down upon, discriminated against and feared.

 Because of these experiences, Lao Zi was unwilling to communicate with Siwei even if he recognized him.

　　He felt that if it weren't for the Four-Tails, he wouldn't have had this experience. He hated his identity as a Jinchuuriki.

Even though he knew that if he could communicate with the tailed beasts without any training, he would become stronger, Lao Zi didn't want to communicate with the four tailed beasts, he just couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart.

 But after seeing the rock house blowing up, Lao Zi’s thoughts changed.

 In fact, until now, Lao Zi also feels that Yan Ku is a terrible person.

 Because Iwaku actually asked him to use the full tailed beast transformation when there were a large number of Iwakakure ninjas around, which was completely regardless of the lives of the ninjas from the same village.

 But even such a bad person can still blow himself up for the sake of the village and the Iwagakure troops.

He thinks it’s not that bad, so why can’t he go through that hurdle in order to have the power to save everything?

With a thought, Lao Zi came to a dark space. Standing in front of him was a tall four-tailed ape with eye-catching red hair.

Siwei looked at Lao Zi silently without speaking.

Lao Zi looked at Siwei and used all his strength to open his mouth. He was worried that even if his strength was less, he would not be able to say that sentence.

“Sun, please help me and give me a little more strength.” Lao Zi said with a complicated expression.

 This is the first time that he has called Siwei by his name. In the past, he was unwilling to communicate with Siwei. Of course, it is impossible to call Siwei by his name like a friend.

Lao Zi is very anxious now. He is worried that the fourth tail will reject him and then humiliate him. After all, he usually ignores the fourth tail.

Siwei looked at Lao Zi with a smile on his face. The stubborn person broke his stubbornness. He was pleased with Lao Zi's progress.

"As you wish, Lao Zi." The four tails generously poured a large amount of their chakra into Lao Zi's body.

 Siwei's behavior was beyond Lao Zi's expectation. He didn't expect that the guy who had caused him a miserable childhood would agree to his request so easily.

 He was prepared to be despised and then returned without success...

"Thanks."

 Leaving a thank you quietly, Lao Zi’s voice disappeared in the space of consciousness.

　　PS：

 There was a little accident. Unexpectedly, relatives came to visit me at home, and they insisted on having a few drinks with me.

This elder forced you to pour it. There was nothing you could do if you didn't want to drink it. I was so groggy that I only coded three thousand words.

In order not to stay up late, I have no choice but to stay here without getting up or down. Try to end these two days. We have been fighting for several days.
