Chapter 97 Kamui Susanoo!
"How is that possible?!"
"This defensive power—"
Wen Tai and Jian were horrified.
They are top-tier summoning beasts from Mount Myōboku, possessing unparalleled power among summoning beasts. Yet, even their combined attack couldn't defeat their opponent?!
Is this the power of Susanoo?!
"This is really troublesome—"
Jiraiya gritted his teeth.
Makoto Kuraki stood in the center of Susanoo and burst into laughter.
This is real fighting!
This is what a man should do!
Gundams clash, every punch feels real!
In comparison, while the previous stealth, assassination, and explosions were effective, they always felt like they lacked a certain thrill.
"Again!"
Gouju Cheng's fighting spirit surged, driven by his will.
Susanoo's left arm katana suddenly deflected Gamabunta's short sword. The huge blade drew a sharp arc in mid-air, changing from a slash to a sweep, and with a whistling sound, it fiercely slashed towards Gamabunta's waist and abdomen!
If this strike lands squarely, even with Bunta's enormous size, he would definitely be disemboweled.
"So fast!"
Bunta's pupils contracted sharply, and his massive body displayed an agility disproportionate to its size. He leaped backward, simultaneously blocking with his short sword.
"clang!!!"
The deafening clang of metal clashing echoed across the battlefield, sparks flying like a waterfall.
Although Bunta blocked the attack, the immense impact still forced him to stagger backward, carving two deep furrows in the muddy ground by the shore, and letting out a suppressed groan.
"Boss Wentai!"
Seeing this, Hama Jian roared in anger, steadied himself, and charged forward again fearlessly.
This time it changed its strategy. Instead of charging directly, it wielded its huge forked weapon like a high-speed rotating drill, carrying violent wind pressure, and thrust it straight at Susanoo's side.
Meanwhile, the huge shield it held in its other hand was also busy, constantly protecting its vitals, making its defensive posture watertight.
A perfect blend of offense and defense, truly befitting Gamaken, known for his composure and steadiness from Mount Myoboku!
"Even though I'm useless, I won't let you hurt Boss Wen Tai like this!"
"That's interesting."
Gouju Cheng's eyes brightened slightly.
Hamaken's attack, though seemingly reckless, was actually delivered from a tricky angle, combining speed and power while also taking into account his own defense.
If it were an ordinary opponent, it would be difficult to find an opportunity to counterattack while withstanding this rapid thrust.
But who is Makoto Goji?
He's a man who pilots a Gundam!
"A trivial skill!"
The chakra shield on Susanoo's right arm slightly adjusted its angle, precisely meeting the tip of the spinning fork-shaped weapon that was thrusting towards it.
boom!!!
The fork and shield collided, unleashing a blinding burst of chakra light and a dull thud.
The rotation of the forked weapon was forcibly stopped, and the enormous recoil made Toad Ken's arms go numb, halting his attack.
And it was at this very moment, when the old forces had been exhausted and the new forces had not yet been generated, that things began.
Susanoo's left arm moved!
The massive katana, like a blue lightning bolt, slashed diagonally upwards from an extremely tricky angle towards Gamaken's right leg joint exposed outside the shield!
This strike was swift and ruthless, the timing was impeccable!
"Ken! Watch out!"
Jiraiya's exclamation came from above Bunta's head.
Hamaken also sensed the danger and tried to pull back, but his body was in a stiff state where his forward momentum was blocked, and his reaction was half a beat slow!
The massive, deep blue blade was about to strike its leg joint.
"Earth Release·Yellow Spring Marsh!"
Jiraiya completed the hand seals almost instantly, and the ground beneath Susanoo's feet softened and collapsed, turning into a bottomless, viscous swamp!
The massive Susanoo suddenly sank, and the slash aimed at Gamaken also deflected slightly due to the loss of balance.
scoff!
The katana grazed the outside of Gamaken's leg, leaving a long, deep wound that exposed the bone in his tough skin. Blood gushed out like a fountain, but thankfully it avoided vital joints.
"hiss!"
Hama Jian gasped in pain, his massive body staggering backward, his eyes filled with terror.
Its leg almost had to be removed!
"Well done, Jiraiya!"
Seeing this, Gamabunta seized the opportunity and pounced again.
This time, it no longer fought head-on. Instead, it used its agile movements to quickly move around Susanoo. Its short sword moved like a venomous snake, targeting Susanoo's knees, ankles, and other supporting joints in an attempt to disrupt its balance.
At the same time, it continuously spewed out viscous toad oil from its mouth, which, combined with Jiraiya's occasional fire release techniques, created small-scale fire explosions to interfere with Makoto's vision and perception.
Despite his leg injury, Gamaken regained his footing and moved around the perimeter to provide support. He used his forked weapon to harass from a distance and occasionally raised his shield to protect Bunta from potential attacks from Susanoo.
The two giant toads, one close and one far, one attacking and one supporting, worked together seamlessly, showcasing the combat prowess of the spirit beasts of Mount Myōboku to the fullest.
In addition, Jiraiya, an experienced and versatile Kage-level ninja, took the lead in directing operations and filling in any gaps in his skills.
For a time, he fought back and forth with Makoto Karatachi, who had activated the third stage of Susanoo, and the two were evenly matched!
Below the battlefield, both the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Leaf Village ninjas were stunned, forgetting the fighting.
This level of combat was completely beyond their comprehension.
Every strike shook the earth, every collision was like thunder.
The rocks along the coast crumbled in the aftershocks, and the sea was whipped into giant waves tens of meters high. The air was filled with the burnt smell of chakra colliding and the salty, fishy vapor.
"Lord Cheng—he's too strong!"
"He actually managed to fight Jiraiya and two giant toads to this extent—"
"This is the genius of our Kirigakure!"
The morale of the Hidden Mist ninja soared, and their eyes were filled with fervor and worship as they looked at the blue giant in the sky.
On the other hand, Konoha's expression was solemn, and they were horrified.
This Makoto Karatachi is actually able to hold his own against Jiraiya to this extent?!
No wonder he was able to destroy supply depots and kill the Hokage's son!
"The power of the Mangekyou Sharingan —"
Uchiha Kindai, mingling among the Konoha ninja, looked up at the deep blue chakra giant, his eyes swirling with complex emotions.
Having survived from the Warring States period and witnessed Madara Uchiha's life firsthand, he naturally knew what Susanoo meant.
That is one of the ultimate eye techniques of the Mangekyou Sharingan, the true ultimate power of the Uchiha clan!
But now, it is being displayed so openly in the hands of an outsider, who is even suppressing the people of Konoha!
shame!
Unwilling!
envy!
A variety of emotions gnawed at his heart like venomous snakes.
But at the same time, a longing was also constantly growing in his heart.
To appease the Uchiha, the Konoha leadership promised them a host of benefits, including ANBU positions and advisory roles—things that the Uchiha had previously considered unattainable.
But Kindai Uchiha knew very well that it was all just empty promises.
The reason why the Third Hokage, or rather the Konoha leadership, bowed down to the Uchiha was ultimately because Konoha needed the power of the Uchiha during this wartime period.
But what happens after the war ends?
No one can guarantee what will happen, but judging from Uchiha Kindai, an old relic who has survived since the Warring States period, the possibility of him being discarded after serving his purpose, or being killed after the hunt is undoubtedly the greatest!
In this situation, what should the Uchiha do, and where is the way out for the Uchiha?
he does not know.
But he must think carefully and consider the future of the Uchiha clan!
And Makoto Kuraki is the core and key to the future of the Uchiha clan!
Whether Fugaku is truly dead or not, only Makoto Karatachi knows the truth. Even if Fugaku is dead, who did Makoto Karatachi's other pair of Mangekyou Sharingan come from, and could that person become an ally of the Uchiha clan?
As long as there is even the slightest possibility, there is still hope for the future of the Uchiha clan.
Once the thought arose, it spread like wildfire in his heart.
Goujucheng — Goujucheng —
"roar!!!"
Gamabunta's roar was so loud it hurt people's eardrums.
Its sudden attack was precisely blocked by Susanoo's chakra shield, and the force of the recoil caused its massive body to tilt back slightly, with a surge of blood and qi in its chest and abdomen.
"This guy's defense is absolutely watertight!"
Wen Tai gritted his teeth, a hint of seriousness flashing in his green toad-like eyes.
Not only is its defense strong, but its counterattacks are also extremely fierce.
If Jiraiya hadn't used Yomi Swamp to disrupt his balance just now, Gamaken's legs would probably be gone.
-
Moreover, their summoned beasts are enormous, and their chakra reserves far exceed those of ordinary ninjas. Yet, after continuous fierce battles, Makoto Karatachi's Susanoo not only did not weaken in the slightest, but instead became stronger with each battle, and the deep blue chakra light became even more condensed!
This is simply illogical!
"Hold on, ten minutes are almost up, only ten minutes left!"
Jiraiya growled, his hands somehow already clasped together, as if preparing something.
Sure enough, a few seconds later, the Susanoo on Makoto's body vanished like bubbles.
But with just one breath, the dissipated Susanoo condensed again, and the kaleidoscope in Makoto's eyes transformed into the shape of a windmill.
Kamui Kaleidoscope!
The windmill-shaped pattern slowly rotated in Makoto's eyes. The deep blue Susanoo did not dissipate. Instead, at the moment of the change in eye power, the color became even deeper and the shape underwent a subtle change!
The original design, which resembled samurai armor, now has a more fluid and eerie feel, but the katana and shield on the arms have disappeared.
The Susanoo activated by different Mangekyou Sharingan are different; its form changes depending on the power of the eye and the nature of the chakra.
For example, the basic weapons of Fugaku Mangekyou Susanoo are a katana and a giant shield.
Of course, it's not that Kamui Susanoo has no weapons. As long as you use chakra and eye power to condense, you can conjure any kind of weapon.
However, due to the characteristics of the Mangekyou Sharingan, Susanoo will also have different biases. For example, at this moment, although Kamui Susanoo does not have a basic weapon, it can enhance the spatial ability of Kamui on Susanoo!
"I'll start with you!"
Makoto Goji's gaze was fixed on Kenjiro Gama, who was pacing around the perimeter, trying to use his forked weapon to keep him at bay from a distance.
This is the giant toad that keeps saying "Although I'm useless," and it almost stabbed Susanoo in the kidney with that big fork just now!
You think you can touch Cheng Ge's kidneys?!
Susanoo conjured a katana in its left hand, blocking Gamabunta's heavy slash. At the same time, the windmill pattern on Makoto's left eye suddenly accelerated its rotation, and a jet-black shuriken appeared in Susanoo's right hand.
"Kamui Shuriken!"
With its eye power locked on, Susanoo suddenly threw the black shuriken in its hand!
Gamabunta conveniently blocked Gamaken's blind spot, and Kamui's shuriken shot towards him. By the time Gamaken tried to dodge, it was too late. He felt the space at the base of his right leg begin to twist and rotate without warning!
The feeling was incredibly eerie, as if an invisible giant hand was forcibly twisting the flesh and bones of its leg into another dimension!
"What?!"
Hama Ken was terrified and tried to break free, but the distortion of space had already taken shape, and an irresistible suction force came from it.
"Ken! Retreat now!"
Jiraiya and Bunta exclaimed at the same time.
But it's too late.
Snap! Pfft!
The sickening sounds of bones cracking and flesh tearing mingled together.
A large chunk of Gamaken's thick right leg was twisted and torn apart by the Kamui Space, swallowing it whole!
The enormous wound was so deep that the bone was visible, and even the writhing internal organs could be seen. Blood gushed out like a burst dam, instantly staining a large area of the ground and seawater beneath it.
"Whoa!!!"
Hama Jian let out a piercing scream, his massive body lost its balance, and crashed heavily to the right, raising a cloud of dust.
It struggled to get up, but its right leg was almost useless, and the excruciating pain and blood loss made it unable to exert any force.
"Ken!!"
Gamabunta's eyes were bloodshot with rage as he watched his brother suffer such a severe injury; his anger instantly overwhelmed his reason.
"You bastard! I'm going to kill you!!!"
Ignoring everything else, it abandoned all tactics and defenses, its massive body charging towards Susanoo with a desperate ferocity, like a maddened mountain.
He raised the short sword high, frantically channeling chakra into it, and the blade erupted with a blinding cold light as he aimed at Susanoo's head and slashed down with all his might!
This strike, unleashed in fury, was far more powerful than any of his previous attacks!
The air was torn apart, producing a sharp popping sound.
"Bunta! Calm down!"
Jiraiya shouted anxiously, but it was too late to stop him.
Faced with Bunta's furious, all-out slash, Makoto Karatachi was not alarmed but rather delighted.
"I'm afraid you'll hide!"
Susanoo suddenly raised its right arm, and a giant, deep blue chakra hand opened, directly grabbing the huge blade that was slashing down without dodging or avoiding it!
"court death!"
A fierce glint flashed in Wen Tai's eyes, and his sword strike intensified threefold.
clang!!!
The deafening clang of metal against metal nearly shattered eardrums, and a terrifying shockwave exploded outwards in a ring, burying the surrounding ground several feet deeper.
Gamabunta's enraged sword strike landed squarely on Susanoo's palm.
However, the scene that was expected—Susanoo's hand being cleaved open, or even his entire arm being severed—did not occur.
That deep blue chakra giant hand, like the toughest divine iron, firmly gripped Gamabunta's short sword blade.
The blade rubbed against the chakra palm, sparking dazzling sparks and explosions, but it just couldn't cut any further!
"What?!"
Wentai was shocked.
It knew best the power of its strike, yet it was easily blocked.
The defense of this Susanoo is terrifying!
But the next moment, something even more shocking happened to Wentai.
Gouju Cheng's lips curled into a cold smile.
"We caught them."
The divine windmill pattern in his left eye suddenly rotated in reverse!
At the same time, the space in Susanoo's right palm, where it gripped the blade, began to twist and collapse without warning.
Kamui!
Makoto Kariju actually attached Kamui's spatial distortion power directly to Susanoo's palm.
"Oh no!"
Gamabunta instantly sensed something was wrong and tried to draw his sword and retreat, but the blade was firmly held in place by Susanoo's hand, and the spatial distortion force had already spread up the blade like a leech.
Buzzing—
The giant short sword in Bunta's hand, which had accompanied him in battle for many years and was of extraordinary quality, began to tremble violently, emitting a mournful cry as it could not bear the weight.
Immediately afterward, to the horrified eyes of Bunta and Jiraiya, the part of the short sword near the hilt was swallowed by an invisible vortex, began to twist and deform, and then shattered and disappeared without a trace!
It was the Divine Might's spatial strangulation!
Moreover, the shattering of the blade was only the beginning; the distorted space was spreading from the blade to the hilt, and towards Bunta's hand holding the sword.
"Let go!"
Jiraiya's stern shout and Bunta's instincts reacted almost simultaneously.
Without hesitation, Bunta loosened his grip on the hilt of his sword, using the momentum to propel his massive body backward.
But Makoto Kujira snorted coldly, and Susanoo suddenly slashed down at Gamabunta's body with his katana!
Bunta's pupils contracted sharply. It was too late to dodge, and he could only twist his body as hard as he could to try to avoid the attack.
"Pfft!"
With the sound of flesh being torn apart, Susanoo's katana slashed straight down from Gamabunta's neck, leaving a deep, bone-revealing gash from his neck to his abdomen, blood splattering everywhere and his internal organs spilling out.
"Bunta!!"
Jiraiya's eyes turned bloodshot, his heart filled with shock and anger.
He never expected that Makoto Kuraki's bizarre space-time eye technique could be combined with Susanoo to produce such a terrifying integrated offensive and defensive effect!
It is indestructible in defense, unpredictable in counterattack, and can even attach the power of spatial distortion to its attacks, making it virtually unbeatable!
In a brief collision, both Bunta and Ken were seriously injured!
The entire room fell silent.
The ninjas from both Kirigakure and Konoha stared wide-eyed and gaped in disbelief at the scene before them.
Those are Gamabunta and Gamaken!
The renowned and powerful summoning beast of Mount Myōboku, which followed the legendary Sannin Jiraiya in battle for many years and made countless contributions.
They actually lost like that?
The defeat was so swift and so devastating!
Jiraiya felt a pang of heartache as he looked at his two seriously injured companions. The two toads, looking at Jiraiya, also showed a hint of bitterness.
"I'm sorry, Jiraiya—"
"I'm still as useless as ever, Jiraiya-sama."
With two loud bangs, Gamabunta and Gamaken simultaneously turned into white smoke and vanished.
The enormous Susanoo looked down at Jiraiya, whose hands were clasped tightly together, and pointed its katana.
"Your turn, Jiraiya!"
