Chapter 193: Ryosuke's Shadow Art
The moment Sarutobi Hiruzen was dragged into the genjutsu world, Ryosuke appeared in front of him in a flash.
Puff~!
Some blood splashed.
Ryosuke scratched Sarutobi Hiruzen's cheek with the kunai in his hand, and a hideous wound appeared on Sarutobi Hiruzen's old face.
He collected a drop of Sarutobi Hiruzen's blood, and immediately prompted the system to transform it into a talent entry.
Ding~!
"Converted successfully!"
"Congratulations to Host for getting the talent entry: [The Strongest Hokage (Purple)]!"
???
System, you are having fun again!
Ryosuke looked at this transformed talent entry and smiled.
The strongest Hokage?
Isn't this what Sarutobi Hiruzen calls himself?
He immediately checked the properties of this new talent entry.
[The Strongest Hokage (Purple): In the textbook of Ninja School, you are recorded as the strongest Hokage in Konoha.
Under your leadership, the development of the village has boomed, the people have lived a life of prosperity and peace, and countless people have praised you.
Even Uchiha Madara is willing to call you the most shameless. The title of the strongest Hokage is well-deserved!]
[Ninjutsu power +400%! Shamelessness +500%! Comes with the will of fire!]
[Will of Fire: When you explain the will of fire to others, others will become more convinced!]
What is this?
This talent entry cannot be called useless. At least the attribute of ninjutsu power is quite useful.
But the other attributes were all completely useless.
Why would Ryosuke want to increase his shamelessness?
Fortunately, at least a ninjutsu power bonus attribute was there.
Otherwise, Ryosuke would consider this talent entry to be the same as the First Dark Kage, and use it for synthesis.
After equipping this talent entry, Ryosuke moved away.
Immediately, he took the initiative to release the genjutsu on Sarutobi Hiruzen.
If he doesn't withdraw the genjutsu, with Sarutobi Hiruzen's ability, he will never be able to get out of the genjutsu for the rest of his life.
After getting out of the influence of the genjutsu, Sarutobi Hiruzen knelt on the roof weakly on one knee.
He heavily panted. He was sweating profusely and looked exhausted.
"You are the remnant of... Uchiha!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Ryosuke in horror.
What?!
Startled, Orochimaru subconsciously looked into Ryosuke's eyes, and sure enough, he saw a pair of Mangekyō that he had never seen before.
"Mangekyō, like Itachi!"
Greed flickered in Orochimaru's eyes, but soon he recalled the memory of being instantly killed by Itachi, and his face became gloomy again.
Damn it!
Sharingan was like his natural nemesis.
"The Uchiha's hatred has nothing to do with me, so you don't have to worry about me attacking you because of the Uchiha genocide." Ryosuke sneered and said.
Sarutobi Hiruzen: "???"
Did you hear what you just said?
Haven't you already attacked mw?
But in fact, Ryosuke was saying the truth.
He had only attacked Sarutobi Hiruzen in order to get his biological pheromones to transform it into talent entries.
Not for the Uchiha matter.
"Go ahead, I'm leaving."
Ryosuke had already gotten what he wanted.
And if he continues to stay here, these two guys might not fight. So he simply turned and left.
Once he was gone, neither Orochimaru nor Sarutobi Hiruzen would care about his existence anymore.
But Sarutobi Hiruzen had just been hit by his genjutsu, and he had weakened quite a bit at this moment.
The impact was not large but it was definitely not small.
Will he be able to seal Orochimaru's arms in the end?
Or... will he seal something else this time?
Like ten fingers or something?
Using the same method to tear apart the Four Violet Flames Formation, Ryosuke went straight back outside the barrier.
As soon as he came out, he was surrounded by a group of Anbu's ninjas.
"Stop!"
Ryosuke had no time to dawdle with this group of Anbu ninjas.
Genjutsu: God of Destruction!
With just a gaze, the dozen or so Anbu in front of him were all dragged into a genjutsu in an instant.
Next second—
These Anbu seemed to have lost their minds, and cut their own necks with the Kunai in their hands.
Then they fell to the ground with a strange smile on their faces.
God of Destruction was a genjutsu Ryosuke had created. It sounds very powerful, but it is actually not that strong.
Ninjas who are extremely determined and whose strength is around the Kage-level will be almost unaffected by this genjutsu.
But if it is used to deal with these ninjas below Kage-level, they can easily be killed.
It can deprive the opponent's mind, let the opponent sink into the genjutsu, and act according to Ryosuke's will.
Ryosuke had made them commit suicide en masse.
With no effort, this group of Anbu ninjas were no more.
Swish!
Ryosuke disappeared instantly.
There were more than a dozen corpses of Anbus here and they had all strangely died.
After a while, Konoha's ninjas came over and discovered these corpses.
And at this time, Ryosuke has long since disappeared.
In the village, the invading Sunagakure and Otogakure ninjas fighting with Konoha ninjas could be seen everywhere.
In the area near the village barrier, there were several huge snakes, which were wantonly destroying the buildings in the village.
"Hurry up, attack!"
"Fire release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"
"Wind release: Vacuum Sphere!"
"Secret Technique: Shadow Binding Technique!"
A large number of ninjas rushed towards the big snakes who were wreaking havoc.
But these big snakes had thick skin and a very good defense.
In addition, there were a lot of Sunagakure ninjas around to stop Konoha's ninjas.
This made it impossible for them to kill these big snakes for a while.
At this time!
Shadows suddenly appeared on the ground.
The shadow swung their swords and killed dozens of Sunagakure ninjas' shadows in an instant.
The strange thing was that the Sunagakure ninjas whose shadows were beheaded were also decapitated in an instant just like their shadows.
The Konoha ninjas were taken aback.
Swish!
At this time, Ryosuke appeared on the scene holding a sword with the power of the Shadow Devouring Sword in his hand.
This was actually just one of his Wood Clones.
Ryosuke intended to separate his own abilities from the abilities of his other identity, Rame.
As for his mother, who knew about his abilities?
Could it be that his own mother would betray him?
So he wasn't worried about this.
And at this time, the Wood Clone, who bore the identity of Ryosuke showed his ability to manipulate shadows.
Just this ability was enough for the avatar to have Kage-level strength.
It was more than enough to deal with these intruders.
"Quickly evacuate the surrounding people!"
The Wood Clone said loudly to the dazed Konoha ninjas around.
Ah?
Ah!
These dazed Konoha ninjas reacted instantly, and quickly escorted the surrounding Konoha residents to retreat to the rear.
At this time, Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Choza, who happened to be dispatched at the scene came to the Wood Clone.
"Ryosuke, do you have a solution to these big snakes?" Inoichi asked.
"Let me try."
The Wood Clone didn't talk too much.
Then hundreds of shadows flew out from under his feet. They were so fast that the Elite Jōnins only saw a flicker.
Next second—
The dense attacks fell on the shadows of those big snakes.
The attack of a single shadow couldn't instantly kill these big snakes, but hundreds of shadows were attacking at the same time.
No matter how tough the skin and flesh of these big snakes were, they couldn't avoid the fate of being instantly killed.
At this moment!
These big snakes who were still wantonly destroying the buildings in the village just now were strangled by the shadows.
Their huge body was directly cut into several sections, and they crashed to the ground.
"It seems quite simple."
The Wood Clone said lightly.
Yamanaka Inoichi, Akimichi Choza: "..."
Is this kid so powerful?!
The two looked at him with surprised expressions.
Such a big snake with extraordinarily tough skin and thick flesh was killed in an instant.
"Fire release: Fire Bullet!"
Boom!
In the distance, a huge explosion sounded.
Jiraiya killed several invading Sunagakure ninjas in an instant, and then rushed here in a flash.
"Oh~! Looks like it's been resolved."
"You guys did a great job!"
Jiraiya looked at the dead snakes on the ground, and said to Inoichi and the others.
Hearing this, Inoichi smiled wryly, and said, "It's not our credit. This was all done by Ryosuke himself."
"Oh~! It's you brat!"
Jiraiya looked at Ryosuke's Wood Clone in surprise.
Even he didn't see that the one in front of him was actually just a clone, and not the real Ryosuke.
"Did you learn this secret technique from the Nara clan?"
Looking at the shadows around who were still strangling the enemies, Jiraiya asked curiously.
"This technique was indeed inspired by the shadow art of the Nara clan." The Wood Clone said.
Swish!
At this moment, Nara Shikaku arrived here.
Hearing the Wood Clone's words, he smiled wryly and said, "Our Nara clan's shadow secret technique is not as strong as your secret technique. Thank you for this time, Ryosuke!"
As the commander in chief of this Konoha defense battle, Nara Shikaku had just roughly counted that the intruders killed by Ryosuke with his shadow secret technique alone accounted for 70% of the total number of intruders.
That is to say, he alone killed more enemies than all the other Konoha ninjas combined.
Nara Shikaku thought that even Konoha's White Fangy and Yellow Flash back then wouldn't be able to do this.
But this was mainly due to the fact that the number of shadows was sufficient.
The number of shadows under Ryosuke's control had expanded from a dozen at the beginning to more than 700 today.
That is to say, the number of ninjas who had died at the hands of these shadows was already over seven hundred.
It was conceivable how much Sunagakure and Otogakure had suffered.
But unfortunately, the Shadow Devouring Sword seemed to only work against humanoid targets.
The big snakes that were killed just now didn't turn into shadows.
Obviously, their shadows were not within the devouring range of the Shadow Devouring Sword.
"I am also a ninja of Konoha, this is what I should do."
The Wood Clone said with a righteous expression.
"Good job! I knew that you were a good guy."
Jiraiya laughed and slapped the Wood Clone on the shoulder.
Fortunately, this was a Wood Clone. If it were a Shadow Clone, this slap would cause it to disappear immediately,
"By the way, what's going on with the old man?"
Jiraiya thought about his teacher's situation at this time.
"It's not too optimistic. Orochimaru is very strong, and Lord Hokage is very old after all, and his strength is no longer at it's peak." Nara Shikaku said.
"A mysterious person appeared just now, and the other person was wearing a mask. Lord Hokage said that the other person was a remnant of the Uchiha clan, and that person had the Mangekyō Sharingan, and his strength was very impressive."
"Uchiha?" Jiraiya frowned.
He really didn't know what to say about this matter.
The Uchiha were certainly wrong for wanting to start a coup.
But Jiraiya knew very well that the reason why the Uchiha did this was because of the village's senior management.
After all, they were one of the founding clans of Konoha.
After being bullied over and over again, how could they not be angry?
But the relationship between Jiraiya and the Uchiha was average, and he didn't have any close friends who belonged to the Uchiha clan.
Therefore, if he was really asked to take sides in this matter, he would still choose to side with the village.
Now that an Uchiha remnant, who had even awakened the legendary eye, Jiraiya paid attention to it.
"What did that Uchiha do?" Jiraiya asked.
"He used a genjutsu on Lord Hokage, and killed more than a dozen Anbu ninjas with genjutsu. This man's genjutsu is terrifying, and no ordinary Elite Jōnin can resist it."
