Chapter 1162 Fight

"Illusion?" 』

Since the attacker had the guts to ambush the Sixth Hokage, he naturally knew about his apparent guard.

Haruno Sakura, the disciple of the Fifth Hokage Tsunade, is a young female ninja with some reputation. Kurama Yakumo's reputation is not so famous.

Even though she defeated many talented young genin and became the first in the chuunin exam, the Kurama family has been in decline for many years. In the secular world, she still has a reputation as a wealthy person, but the ninja world is not so famous.

Coupled with the fact that he has been living in seclusion for the past few years, and has no teacher or reliable teammates to promote each other's reputation, the glory of winning the Chuunin Exam has gradually faded away.

If it weren't for Danzo Shimura's promotion, everyone would have almost forgotten this female ninja who defeated a number of geniuses such as Hyuga Neji and Haruno Sakura.

"Most illusion ninjas are inconspicuous. They don't have the brilliance of advanced ninjutsu or the passion of taijutsu ninjas. Except for the person involved, no one can realize the dangers involved, so..."

In the hell-like scene, Kurama Yakumo's teasing voice sounded like a smile but not a smile.

"What gave you the courage to challenge us?"

Since the last time she was invited by Daimaru to fight on the moon together and capture Otsutsuki Toneri, the kunoichi, who had not taken action against the enemy for a long time, went through the motions when Nagato attacked Konoha Village and rescued Otsutsuki Toneri. They met some villagers, but didn't even meet any decent enemies.

The attackers had all erased their identification marks. From the outside, it was unclear where they came from and what their main purpose was. However, the malicious intent was obvious, and it was enough to know this.

Seeing that all the enemies were frozen, Haruno Sakura understood that they were under an illusion and asked calmly:

"Do you want to be kept alive?"

Kurama Yakumo responded:

"It stands to reason that as long as we subdue them, knock them unconscious and leave them here, someone will naturally deal with them, but..."

It is definitely impossible for the Sixth Generation of Hokage to go out with only two young female ninjas to protect him. There are also direct henchmen secretly to eliminate hidden dangers.

Before long, there will definitely be sentient ninjas who notice the strange chakra fluctuations and come to investigate.

As if to confirm Kurama Yakumo's worries, the bodies of several intruders who had been controlled suddenly began to shake strangely, and their limbs began to twist. In Haruno Sakura's horrified eyes, they suddenly exploded and turned into steaming blood mist, Then it was ignited like boiling oil, creating a huge flaming heat wave that enveloped dozens of meters. The flames rolled and went straight up into the air for nearly a hundred meters.

The chance of success in ambushing the current Hokage, who has been mentally prepared for a long time, is extremely small, especially in such a direct way. However, ninjas have a tradition of living towards death, and they will not hesitate to turn themselves into a dead soldier to achieve their goals. I don’t know how many there are.

Even though he had expected that unexpected changes might occur, Kurama Yakumo was still a bit surprised that the enemy was so aggressive.

Nearly half a minute later, the raging flames and heat wave gradually subsided. When the flying dust fell, the dozen or so villains who attacked had turned into fly ash, leaving not even a bit of information that could be used to detect their whereabouts.

The group of Konoha ninjas at the center of the explosion were wrapped in a thick vine that was burnt on the outside. Inside was a ball of light blue energy, resisting the shock wave that passed through the gaps in the wood escape vines. Kurama Yakumo, Haruno Sakura and The carriage carrying Shimura Danzo was almost unscathed.

Haruno Sakura, who was still in shock, put down the arm covering her forehead and looked at the dark green wooden branches around her and the defensive barrier that protected her.

"This is...the legendary Wood Release?"

"Any questions?"

After sensing that there was no more chakra reaction around him, Kurama Yakumo was relieved and said with a chuckle,

"As a Hokage, isn't it natural to know how to escape?"

"All right!"

Haruno Sakura, who didn't know from which angle to refute this seemingly correct but actually nonsense statement, also knew that now was not the time to delve into it. The defensive barrier on the carriage would consume a lot of energy after this attack. Next, we have to The two provided chakra and worked hard to support sufficient defense.

As for the so-called prisoners and the possibility of torture information, they have disappeared.

It is estimated that the enemy also knows that there are many masters in Konoha Village who are good at spiritual arts, and even dead people can get enough information from their minds.

"What should we do next?"

Haruno Sakura's question didn't wait for Kurama Yakumo to answer. Shimura Danzo's majestic order came from inside the carriage.

"keep going!"

No matter what the motives behind the attack are, my policy will not change.

In the view of Kurama Yakumo and Daimaru, who was in stealth command, these dead soldiers were most likely hidden forces under the "Akatsuki" organization that obeyed Uchiha Obito.

Its purpose is most likely to slow down the movement speed of the Konoha Village group. If possible, find a suitable place and then kill. Even if the goal cannot be achieved, it can also confuse the audience.

The possibility that other ninja villages want to weigh in on the new Hokage's worth is not entirely nonexistent.

For Shimura Danzo, Haruno Sakura and Kurama Yakumo, the ambush on the way to the Iron Kingdom seemed to be a big deal, but it was just a trivial episode.

If there is no master of the same level to suppress the formation, thousands of ninja troops will have to be sent to surround and kill them to have the possibility of killing a "shadow".

From this attack, Daimaru also understood that Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Sasuke did not intend to kill Shimura Danzo on the way to the Iron Kingdom, especially the revenge-hungry Uchiha Sasuke, who could make him There are only more important things to give up this opportunity.

…

In Konoha Village, when they were lamenting that Uchiha Sasuke's attention was drawn to Yakushi Kabuto in a matter of seconds, the missed true master finally found Yakushi Kabuto hiding deep underground.

Looking at the bottomless cave entrance, Gui Deng Shuiyue, who was not used to it, felt a little frightened.

Even Jugo didn't like such a gloomy place.

After finally finding the right direction, Uchiha Sasuke didn't care about this little trouble. He resolutely stepped into the cave and followed the long tunnel deep into the ground.

As time went by, the candles held by the three people became increasingly wider as the underground caves became wider and wider, becoming somewhat insufficient.

The range that could be illuminated was too small, and the lightless environment affected the three people's observation of the enemy's situation.

Among the members of the "Snake" team, Jugo is the one with the strongest sense of perception, only slightly inferior to Uchiha Sasuke who has turned on Sage Mode.

But in this weird environment, there seems to be a crazy atmosphere in the air, especially Zhongwu, who is very sensitive to this almost homologous magical chakra, and his originally calm mood is getting worse and worse. The more irritable he became, the ghost lamp Shuiyue walking side by side with him seemed to sense the threat and unconsciously took a few steps away.

Uchiha Sasuke pretended that these "minor problems" did not exist and focused all his attention on finding the exact location of Yakushi Kabuto.

Ten minutes later, the "Snake" team arrived at the end of the underground space and looked at the stone wall in front of them, feeling confused.

After searching the surrounding space, no trace of Yakushi Kabuto was found. Daimaru's intelligence clearly showed that it was here. The three of them also discovered something suspicious here, but there was no one in sight.

After thinking for a while, Uchiha Sasuke ordered Jugo:

"Punch through this stone wall!"

"Huh? Sasuke, are you serious?"

The seemingly solid rock seems to be difficult to break through. Even with Chongwu's strength, it is impossible to do so.

Uchiha Sasuke remained silent, but Jugo did not question Uchiha Sasuke's order. The red and black curse marks on his body spread, and the signs of alienation became more and more obvious.

As the immortal transformed to the extreme, Jugo raised his right hand and punched the wall in front of him.

"Axe-cutting blast!"

Amidst the loud shouts, heavy blows were hit on the stone wall. The violent collision caused the entire cave to vibrate. A low thunderous rumble echoed back and forth inside, as if being locked inside a copper bell. A group of people outside were violently hammering the bell. Just like knocking, the energy cannot be released and is all absorbed by the human body.

Fortunately, Uchiha Sasuke had a body that had been tempered for several years, and had been prepared with various potions for several years, and was nourished and improved by senjutsu chakra, so he barely fainted. Oni Deng Suigetsu was not so lucky, and he lost control of his whole body. The pain in the head is sore and soft, and I can't move.

Chongwu, who was a little mentally disturbed, started to attack even more fiercely. With heavy blows, he finally broke the stone wall in front of him, revealing a wider space behind.

"really……"

There is a cave behind, so no wonder Yakushi Kabuto cannot be found.

However, Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but feel excited.

If it was normal before, the underground space that you can see now is obviously not a naturally formed cave or underground river, but an artificial one.

But in such deep mountains and old forests, who would open up such a large space in such a deep place, and it is obviously not used.

If everything now is created by ninjutsu, then Kabuto Yakushi's strength has undoubtedly been improved by several levels in Uchiha Sasuke's mind.

Koyamabuki's warning words before finally made Uchiha Sasuke take it seriously.

"Senjutsu Chakra?" 』

It was a little different from the senjutsu chakra he had mastered, but it was closer to the cursed seal chakra on Jugo.

This is also the reason why Chongwu was stimulated and seemed to be mentally abnormal.

In the past, he would fall into out-of-control madness because he was in a place where the natural energy was too strong, and he would unconsciously absorb excessive amounts of energy and fall into out-of-control madness. This time he encountered the resonant magical chakra, and it may be even more difficult to control himself.

Fortunately, the current Jonggo has not lost his mind and turned into a murderer who does not recognize his relatives. At least he can still distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.

At the end of the underground space on the other side of the stone wall, a strange figure hidden in a wide robe and a face hidden by a hood slowly appeared.

Facing such a person, the "Snake" team felt as if they were being stared at by poisonous snakes that were ready to attack, and they unconsciously felt waves of cold air coming over them.

"It's so disrespectful to break in even though the door has been closed to thank guests and visitors are not welcome!"

It is somewhat similar to Yakushi Kabuto's voice in the past, but it is obviously more sinister and weird, and the malice revealed in his words is beyond words.

"For the sake of being old friends, let's leave now. I will spare your lives and let you leave..."

"Let us go?"

A cruel smile appeared on Uchiha Sasuke's cold face,

"I'm afraid I can't do what you want, Kabuto..."

He slowly drew out the Kusanagi sword from his waist, stabbed it down with his backhand, and pierced a poisonous snake that was about to attack in a sneak attack.

"Still so duplicitous, obviously full of murderous intentions, and still pretending to want to reconcile..."

"It's you, I want to kill you no matter what, and then use the dirt to reincarnate and channel you so that you can be used by me..."

Yakushi Kabuto, who claims to have inherited Orochimaru's path, wants to take possession of anything related to Orochimaru. Especially Uchiha Sasuke, who succeeded in backing Orochimaru and inherited most of the inheritance, wants to kill him. And then quickly.

This is a battle between Orochimaru's heirs, with no possibility of reconciliation.

In order to find the truth behind the annihilation of the Uchiha family, Uchiha Sasuke cannot let go of Yakushi Kabuto. The bunch of forbidden techniques on his body are what Uchiha Sasuke needs.

Now that they were hostile, Yakushi Kabuto was no longer polite. He formed seals with his hands, and the magical chakra spurted out and spread into the surrounding land. The walls, floor, and ceiling were all activated puppets.

"Immortal Technique: The Technique of Inorganic Reincarnation!"

In a hurry, Uchiha Sasuke and others, aware of their own danger, were like mice being swallowed into the belly of a snake. They were surrounded by imminent threats. Thick rock and soil pillars and hard stalactites were like long winding lines. Coming like a snake.

The "Snake" team, which formed a defensive formation, flew to avoid it and dispersed to fight on their own. The planned joint attack method also failed.

"It feels so troublesome..."

Gui Deng Shuiyue, who was originally very afraid of such an environment, had absolutely no way to use such magic. The surrounding light was dim, and the attack route of the inorganic reincarnation technique was also very secretive, making it extremely difficult to avoid. If it were not for the support of the secret technique of water transformation, He was seriously injured and retired a long time ago.

Jugo's condition was not good either. He was always in an extremely excited state and his strength was greatly increased, but his reaction was relatively slow. He resisted several attacks but felt very strenuous and was forced to withdraw from the core fighting circle.

Only Uchiha Sasuke, holding up Susanoo's half-skeleton body, blocked one after another with his giant hands, shattering one after another long stone pillars created by the inorganic reincarnation technique, and slowly moved towards the direction of Yakushi Kabuto.

"Susanohu? So you also have eyes like that! Orochimaru-sama... almost succeeded!"

This kind of power was what his immediate boss, Orochimaru, was tirelessly pursuing. What was originally within easy reach, not only succeeded in backlash, but also became so powerful.

In a battle with such a guy, Kabuto Yakushi would not be careless and directly released several dirty earth bodies, including the white-haired and burly Kaguya Kimimaro, the strong third-generation Raikage, and the second-generation Tsuchikage Mu who quickly disappeared after appearing.

In addition, the explosive ninja Kari and the second-generation Mizukage Kiden Gengetsu are guarding Yakushi Kabuto's body, also ready to go.
