Chapter 235
Faced with Rasa's sudden courage, Elders Chiyo and Ebizo were so anxious they almost cried.
They are doing everything they can to give the chance of survival to the young people they believe in.
So why did you go and willingly go to your death?
In the critical moment, Chiyo disregarded her concealment and decisively opened the last scroll on her person, revealing her most deeply hidden trump card.
The next moment, black iron filings formed javelins, flying at high speed with a sharp whooshing sound!
Shiba Kiyokawa raised his hand and summoned an ice mirror to block the iron sand. The next moment, he met the gaze of that familiar human puppet.
The Third Kazekage's human puppet!
It is also Sasori's last work!
Even the Sand Village ninjas on the battlefield were stunned at that moment.
Luo Shazheng stared blankly, "Third-generation human puppets? Weren't they destroyed?"
Chiyo didn't answer, but the answer was obvious.
She kept the puppet secretly as a final remembrance of her deceased grandson.
This might explain why she has been unable to accept Yekura for so long. Yekura became the acting Kazekage by exposing Sasori's crimes and judging him!
This alone is why Chiyo has never been able to get over the mental hurdle and is unable to truly accept this new Kazekage.
"I know I have made many mistakes in the past, but this time, I will definitely eliminate you for the sake of Sunagakure!"
Chiyo manipulated the puppets, simultaneously blocking the forces of both Kirigakure and Shiba Kiyokawa.
At the same time, Ebizo took the opportunity to come to Rasa's side and urge him on.
"Hurry up! Don't do anything foolish again! You young people are the hope of this village!"
"But Shukaku is still here!"
"Forget about the tailed beasts now! Living is the most important thing! There are so many people waiting for you to save them on Mount Kikyo!"
Luo Sha then suddenly realized that a large number of his colleagues were still trapped on the other side of the mountain.
However, at this moment, Orochimaru, who had been at the center of the incident yet remained the calmest, finally spoke up.
He spoke with a smile.
"If you are worried about the situation on Kikyo Mountain, then I think you can stop worrying about it now."
As he finished speaking, a deafening explosion suddenly came from afar.
People on the battlefield kept coughing and shouting in alarm.
"Look over there! The mountain has collapsed!"
Luo Sha turned his head and saw the peak of Kikyo Mountain break apart amidst a huge explosion!
Then, due to the angle of inclination, the shattered mountain peaks began to cascade down the southern slope, and the billowing dust, when viewed from afar, resembled a black dragon obscuring the sun!
The slope on the north side of Kikyo Mountain is quite steep, while the south side is relatively flat.
After the mountain broke apart, it crashed down the south slope, rolling all the way down as if the sky were collapsing!
And coincidentally, the ninja forces trapped in Sunagakure were concentrated on the southern slope of Mount Kikyo!
At that moment, everyone present was stunned by Orochimaru's ruthless actions, and Rasa, Chiyo, Ebizo and their group were so shocked that they turned pale!
"How is this possible? How could a ninja do something like this?!"
Luo Sha was incoherent and hysterical, as if his whole body was about to break apart.
However, Orochimaru simply smiled, a hint of nostalgia and relief flashing in his eyes.
"Nothing is impossible. I've been preparing for this day for a very, very long time."
"Ha, it's a real shame. This collapse could have completely destroyed twenty years of your hard-earned wealth."
Only at this moment did Luo Sha realize what kind of ruthless people he was playing against.
For a fleeting moment, he even had an uncontrollable thought: Did Yekura's decision to oust him and become the Kazekage actually save Sunagakure?
He wasn't the only one with this idea, of course.
The moment the mountain collapsed, many of the Sand Village ninja who followed Rasa immediately broke down and gave up the fight, choosing to surrender on the spot.
Even the ninjas from Kirigakure were somewhat stunned.
Mei Terumi watched the earth-shattering scene from afar, secretly wiping the sweat from her brow, feeling relieved.
Fortunately, this time Kirigakure successfully stood on the side of victory!
Otherwise, she was really worried about whether her village could withstand the additional blows from such a group of ruthless people.
Even Shukaku, the one-tailed beast that had been causing the most trouble on the entire battlefield, looked at the distant mountain slope with a clearer gaze.
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Rasa immediately turned his gaze to Shiba Kiyokawa in front of him.
"You guys were involved in this too, weren't you? You guys are really ruthless!"
The Akatsuki organization is particularly skilled in geological engineering, a fact that was no secret after the Battle of Kannabi Bridge.
At that moment, Shiba Kiyokazu gave a faint smile and a polite response.
"Thank you for your kind words, I am truly honored."
Luo Sha's face twitched with anger.
His intention was certainly not to praise the enemy!
But at that moment, the last thread in his heart that supported his escape snapped.
"You all deserve to die!!"
He ultimately gave up the precious opportunity that Chiyo and Ebizo had risked their lives to fight for him!
Gold dust and iron dust, their long-lost combined power, surged towards the enemy like a tidal wave!
"A grand funeral with gold dust!"
Chiyo also activated all the puppets in her hands with all her might!
Half of the Ten Mine Guards who were originally suppressing the Hidden Mist Village have been transferred here!
However, faced with such a frenzied counterattack, Shiba Kiyokawa simply strolled around, slid, retreated, and dodged as if taking a leisurely walk.
Cultivating immortal arts greatly enhanced his senses, and at the same time, the immortal arts of the priestess lineage were inherently closely related to prophecy.
This also enhanced his ability to make instantaneous predictions in battle.
No matter how frantic, violent, or rapid the attacks from the puppets around him were, he could always easily dodge them with the simplest and most effective footwork and body movements.
Elegant, as if in a dance.
The next moment, as he turned around, the golden chains behind him shot out like javelins, instantly crushing a puppet to pieces!
The Chikamatsu Ten Guards, known as the pinnacle puppets capable of destroying a nation with just ten of their forms, did not seem to pose much of a threat in the face of the Vajra Lockdown's chains.
Chiyo was originally an expert in using poison, and the blades used by her puppets were coated with poison.
Unfortunately, Shiba Kiyokawa would never allow the blades of these puppets to touch him.
The next moment, the golden sand beneath his feet climbed up and locked his legs, while the iron sand in front of him formed a huge steel nail, also aimed at him!
The remaining Chikamatsu Ten Guards quickly spread out and launched an attack from four angles: front, back, left, and right!
At this moment, the two elders of Sunagakure and Rasa seemed to have completely abandoned any hope and were determined to make the mastermind behind the scenes pay the price!
At that moment, Shiba Kiyokawa was startled and even saw several suspicious figures in the Konoha ranks behind him, quietly approaching Orochimaru's back.
It's clear that after Orochimaru bared his fangs and displayed his madness with a spectacular mountain collapse, many people couldn't remain calm.
This time they were really worried!
At this moment, everyone is probably thinking: if we don't go crazy now, we'll really never have another chance.
At this moment, Shiba Kiyokawa and Orochimaru, the two truly insane men who maintained their smiles throughout, became the two most out of place on the field.
Because true madness is never about hysteria, but about doing things that others dare not think of or dare not do.
The moment the iron sand, gold sand, and the puppet's blades all struck him, no one noticed that Shiba Kiyokawa's smile finally spread wide.
"Did it work?"
At the moment when all the attacks were poured in, Luo Sha couldn't help but pant and ask.
At this moment, he had given up on evacuation and survival, believing he had made the craziest decision of his life.
At that moment, he thought that staying was the craziest thing he could do.
For the sake of the village and for revenge, he has given his all this time!
However, when he glanced at the battlefield out of the corner of his eye, he found that those who were allies with the Akatsuki did not seem to be very worried.
Meanwhile, in Kirigakure, the newly appointed Mizukage, Juzo Biwa, was still leisurely paddling along, not in a hurry at all.
Even his own secret service captain, Mei Terumi, asked him, "Aren't you worried about your boss?"
He calmly replied, "Don't worry, the boss will be fine."
Only then did Luo Sha vaguely sense a hint of panic.
The next moment, the golden sand slowly receded like water, revealing a scene that confirmed the guesses of the Hidden Mist faction: Shiba Kiyokawa reappeared before everyone unharmed.
At this moment, he had no injuries, but instead had many glowing runes that looked mysterious and profound, and even his hair was floating upwards.
The whole person's temperament has changed because of this!
The next moment, Shiba Kiyokawa slowly floated up from the ground, naturally rising into the air without any hand seals or extra movements. He then looked down at the group from the sky.
She reached out and swept all her upward-flowing bangs behind her head, revealing her forehead, and easily changed to a more dashing hairstyle.
At this moment, Shiba Kiyokawa truly stood in the heavens!
Rasa, Chiyo, and Ebizo were all stunned.
"What is that? Is it the Iwagakure Light and Heavy Rock Technique? Why would the Akatsuki leader use an Iwagakure technique? And what technique did he just use to block the attack?!"
Then Orochimaru's expression changed, and he revealed the secret in a single sentence.
"Is this... Sage Mode? It seems a bit different from Jiraiya's."
Orochimaru then laughed and said, "You're really crazy. You've been distracted by entering Sage Mode the whole time during a battle like this."
Orochimaru knew about Sage Mode and also knew that entering Sage Mode required a period of guidance.
He had seen Jiraiya practice Sage Mode, but at this point in time, Jiraiya's success rate with Sage Mode was still very low.
During the practice sessions that Orochimaru witnessed, Jiraiya failed nine out of ten times, and his distraction prevented him from processing external information.
It can be said that Jiraiya's Sage Mode had no practical value at this point, and it would take a long time to refine it in the future.
However, according to Orochimaru's knowledge, Shiba Kiyokawa Shuu's Sage Mode came later than Jiraiya's!
Compared to Jiraiya, Shiba Kiyokawa is practically a complete beginner on this path!
Even Jiraiya doesn't dare to use Sage Mode in actual combat anymore.
But surprisingly, Shiba Kiyokawa, who had just come into contact with this field in the Land of Demons, actually dared to be distracted and try it in actual combat!
So at this moment, even Orochimaru had to admit defeat: You're the crazier one!
Rasa, Chiyo, and Ebizo were completely dumbfounded.
Even if they didn't know what Sage Mode was, they could at least extract the key information themselves. In the battle just now, even when facing the combined attack of the three of them, the Akatsuki member in front of them still chose to conserve his strength and not go all out!
Compared to their desperate gambles when they were driven to the brink, this guy in front of us is truly insane!
"you."
Luo Sha wanted to ask you how you dared to do that?
But the next moment, he couldn't bring himself to ask the question.
Having successfully broken through the pressure of this real battle, Shiba Kiyokawa has begun his first trial in Sage Mode!
In the blink of an eye, without any warning, he vanished into thin air!
"What?!" Rasa was completely stunned!
Instantaneous movement—…Does it really not require hand seals? Or is it just pure speed?
Before he could think, the blade had already sliced across his shoulder.
Even though there was gold dust protecting him, it seemed so flimsy when faced with a blade wrapped in sage magic, relying solely on chakra to manipulate the gold dust.
The gold dust couldn't stop the katana that gleamed with white light.
After the slash, one of Rasa's arms flew off.
Then Shiba Kiyokawa raised his leg and kicked out, immediately piercing through the golden sand protecting his opponent's body and sending him flying dozens of meters away!
He then disappeared again, and when he reappeared, he was standing in front of Ebizo, the elder of Sunagakure.
Rasa was spared because of his gold-mining value, but the two Sunagakure elders were not so lucky.
With a single slash, Ebizo was instantly split in two.
Then Shiba Kiyokawa flashed again and appeared in front of Chiyo.
The puppet manipulated by the chakra threads had no time to react. As Shiba Kiyokawa's blade swept across, the natural energy surrounding the blade instantly shattered all the surrounding chakra threads!
After a single strike, the Third Kazekage's puppet once again fell into the hands of Shiba Kiyokawa.
Chiyo herself lost consciousness forever.
With a final flash, he almost instantly crossed the entire battlefield, the arc of light trailing behind his blade forming a magnificent zigzag line!
After this flash, all the Sand Village ninja who were unwilling to surrender perished under the blade!
Shiba Kiyokawa then immediately exited this extremely brief Sage Mode, plunged his sword into the ground, and began to pant wearily.
He is not yet used to this situation.
But the results before our eyes are enough to shock everyone on the battlefield!
No one could see his movement trajectory, nor could anyone see through the secret of his blinking displacement!
At that moment, every ninja who witnessed it up close subconsciously touched their own neck.
It was as if they were afraid that a knife would suddenly flash across the area at any moment.
Terumi Mei stared in horror at the scene before her, then turned to look at her own Mizukage, who had been slacking off without a care in the world. A surge of indescribable emotion welled up in her heart.
She finally understood why Pipa Juzo had so much confidence in this boss.
Recalling the four consecutive flashes, she couldn't think of any way to counter it.
"Is this really something a ninja could do?"
At this moment, having learned the truth about the world, Shiba Kiyokawa has taken the first step toward changing the world—he has shown the world the view from a higher perspective!
