Konoha: Otsutsuki from the Earth

After the violent shaking and the roar that echoed across the sky, the forest returned to calm again.

"What happened?" Kimimaro looked curiously at the direction of the loud noise. Except for the billowing smoke and the fleeing birds, there seemed to be nothing unusual.

"What a good opportunity!" Seeing Kimimaro's momentary distraction, Ya instantly covered his limbs with chakra and rushed towards Kimimaro quickly.

However, Kimimaro didn't even look at it. He waved his hand casually, and the sharp bone blade passed the tip of Ya's nose.

"What a danger..." Ya used all his limbs to barely stop his body, avoiding the fate of being beheaded.

There is a huge difference in strength between the two, and Kiba has deeply realized it. But he cannot abandon Choji and Sasuke and run away. Now it can be said that he is in a dilemma.

In order to prevent Kiba from hindering him again, Kimimaro raised the bone blade towards Kiba: "I will not show mercy to those who hinder Orochimaru-sama."

Whoosh! Clang! He swung the bone blade at high speed and was forcefully deflected by a black shadow. The fierce force coming from the bone blade made Kimimaro almost let go of his hand.

Looking at the cracked bone blade, and then turning to look at the black iron rod stuck on the ground not far away, Kimimaro found it hard to imagine that there were such hard weapons in this world besides Lord Orochimaru's Kusanagi sword.

.

The limit of his blood inheritance is that he can freely control the growth of bones in his body. Moreover, the hardness of his bones is far stronger than steel, and the resulting bone weapons can truly "cut iron like clay."

But now, his weapon was directly shattered. If he hadn't used his ability to control it, the bone blade would have turned into fragments and scattered all over the floor.

Phew - a blue comet fell from the sky and headed straight for Kimimaro.

Feeling the power contained in the comet, the curse mark on Kimimaro's chest instantly covered his body. Countless bone spurs emerged from his body in the blink of an eye, protecting him in layers.

"Freeze Concerto!"

Boom - The moment the white "cactus" and the blue "comet" collided, countless ice shards and bone fragments exploded directly, and the teeth not far away were directly blown away by the shock wave.

"Well..." All the bone spurs on his chest were broken into two pieces, and Kimimaro, who was covered in ice, flew backwards on his back.

The smoke dispersed, revealing a blue halo of light emitting from his left foot.

After plowing a long ditch on the ground, Kimimaro barely stopped his retreating body.

Feeling the coldness covering his chest and arms, he climbed up from the ground unsteadily, looked at Qi Fei in the distance and said: "White hair, white pupils, similar appearance to our clan, ice escape blood

As a user of Jibound, it seems that the person the pocket is pointing to is you."

Originally, Kimimaro was not required to appear in Kabuto's plan, but Qi Fei's appearance made Kabuto a little wary.

If Qi Fei sent out a mission to recapture Sasuke, the four simple Otogakure would definitely not be his match. So to be on the safe side, Kabuto deliberately woke up Kimimaro in advance.

Using Orochimaru's wish as a bargaining chip, Kimimaro escorted Sasuke. In addition, more people were specially arranged as support to ensure that Sasuke was escorted to Orochimaru in time as much as possible.

"I will not show mercy to those who hinder Orochimaru-sama, even if they are of the same race." Kimimaro said firmly as he took off his shirt and pulled out a bone blade from his shoulder again.

"Let me take you to your grave." A dark round rod stretched out from his palm, Qi Fei said holding the black rod in his hand.

He vaguely remembered that Kimimaro went into battle while ill, and his opponent in the original work was Gaara. In the end, he seemed to have fallen ill and died.

[I have always heard that Kimimaro is very strong, so today I can try it out.]

"Black bones? Forget it, it doesn't matter. Dance of Chun!"

Phew——Kimimaro took the lead in attacking, his whole body turned into a white afterimage, and he rushed in front of Qi Fei in an instant.

Clang, clang, clang - black and white instantly turned into countless afterimages and entangled together. Bang! However, not long after, Kimimaro's bone blade shattered with a sound.

"It's actually harder than me?"

As the last genius of the Kaguya clan, Kimimaro never expected that there would be someone with stronger bones than his own.

"No, no, that's not a bone."

In the close fight, Kimimaro was able to clearly see the weapon in Qi Fei's hand. It was not bone at all, but an extremely hard metal.

It was just that the way the black rod was produced was similar to that of the bone blade, so he recognized it wrong when observing it from a distance.

Despite doubts in his heart, Kimimaro did not stop. The moment the bone blade shattered, more bone spurs came out of his body, and his whole body turned into a "bone spur cactus".

"Dance of Karamatsu!"

Kimimaro spun his body and turned into a white top and rolled towards Qi Fei.

However, the next moment the bone spur touched Qi Fei, Qi Fei's entire body turned into an ice cube, allowing Kimimaro to roll him into ice shards.

"Fly together!"

Shikamaru and Naruto had also arrived at the battlefield at this time. After seeing Qi Fei being crushed alive by Kimimaro, they shouted worriedly.

"What's going on?" Kimimaro stopped and looked at the broken ice shards on the ground in confusion, "Ice clone?"

Naturally, he would not think that Qi Fei was killed by him just like that. If he was only of this level, how could Kabuto specially send him to escort Sasuke.

"Shikamaru, get Kiba and the others away from here." Qi Fei's voice sounded from behind Kimimaro, shouting loudly towards Shikamaru who had just arrived.

Kimimaro turned around in surprise and saw a huge ice block slowly condensing into a flying shape.

"Understood." Seeing that Qi Fei was fine, Shikamaru hugged Tooth without saying a word and asked Naruto to carry Choji on his back and stay as far away from the area as possible.

Just kidding, if Qi Fei uses all his firepower, this area will definitely be gone. It would be too dangerous for Ya and Choji to stay here.

"The art of hydration?" Qi Fei's state reminded Kimimaro of the art of hydration in Kirigakure Village, but now the carrier was ice.

But this move consumes a lot of chakra, especially when the whole body is "hydrated" like this, he probably won't be able to use it more than a few times.

Moreover, since Qi Fei uses the hydration technique to dodge, it proves that he is unable to cope with this move.

"In that case, consume it until you can no longer use it!"

More bone spurs came out of the body, and Kimimaro turned into a white whirlwind again and rolled towards Qi Fei.

Bang! Just after two turns, a pair of strong hands tightly grasped the sharp bone spurs, stopping his movement abruptly.

Boom - Just when he was about to fight back, a fist covered with silvery white light smashed several hard bone spurs, hit him hard on the face, and smashed his whole body directly into the ground.

"Ugh..." Even the bones covered under the skin were smashed, and the long-lost severe pain made him cough up a mouthful of blood.

At this time, Naruto, who was watching the battle in the distance, suddenly shouted to Shikamaru beside him: "Shikamaru, look, the coffin seems to be smoking. Worse, if Sasuke is there, he will also be affected by the battle."

With that said, Naruto rushed out without saying a word and ran towards Sasuke's coffin.

"Wait a minute, Naruto! It's really troublesome." Seeing this, Shikamaru could only follow him, leaving Kiba who had lost his fighting power to stay where he was to take care of the weak Choji.

"Lord Orochimaru..." Seeing Naruto running towards the coffin, Kimimaro endured the severe pain and stretched out his palm, pointing his finger at Naruto, "Ten fingers to penetrate the bullet!"

White finger bones drilled out from the fingertips and shot toward Naruto like bullets.

Bang, bang, bang - the tree trunk that emerged from the ground protected Naruto like a turtle shell, and his finger bones were bounced off after hitting the wooden wall.

【Sasuke can leave, but not now.】

"hateful!"

Understanding that if Qi Fei is not defeated, he cannot continue to bring Sasuke back to the base, and the curse mark on Kimimaro begins to spread.

His skin began to turn black, thick white bones emerged from his back, and a long tail with bone spurs grew from behind. The cheek that was severely injured by Qi Fei was also recovering rapidly at this time.

He swung his long tail and tried to swat Qi Fei away.

But Qi Fei did not dodge, but grabbed his tail and kicked him in the abdomen.

Although Kimimaro tried to block it with bone spurs, it was useless in front of the kick covered in silver-white halo, and it was instantly shattered.

Qi Fei pulled Kimimaro's tail, kicked him off the ground, and then threw him up into the sky with all his strength.

He released his tail, clenched his fist and pulled back, and red lava instantly climbed up Qi Fei's arm.

Ug-lu-gulu - The hot lava is accumulating on the wrist, ready to go.

【rest in peace.】

Boom boom boom——Qi Fei waved his fist towards Kimimaro's figure, and the fiery lava fist instantly submerged Kimimaro's figure.

"It's dangerous over there, get out of the way!" Shikamaru shouted quickly to Naruto who was holding the coffin bucket, because the lava fist falling from the sky was likely to fall near Naruto.

"Ah~" Naruto ran away without even raising his head.

Boom - The huge lava fist fell to the ground, splashing countless hot magma, and the fire ignited.

"Ah!" The flying Naruto accidentally kicked and fell to the ground, and the coffin barrel rolled out.

Bang! The coffin barrel suddenly exploded, and Sasuke's figure rolled out of the smoke.

At this time, Sasuke's hair turned gray and his skin also turned gray, but then quickly faded and returned to his original appearance.

"What's going on? What happened?" Sasuke rubbed his dizzy head and looked at the blazing fire in front of him with a confused look.

"Sasuke!" Seeing Sasuke appear, Naruto shouted happily, "Come back soon..."

Hearing Naruto's call, Sasuke turned around, revealing half of his face that was already covered with curse marks. At this time, his eyes also turned into black eyeballs and brown pupils.

Sasuke quickly scanned around and found the figures of Shikamaru and Qi Fei, and quickly judged that they should be taking him back specifically.

But after finally gaining strength, how could he let go of this opportunity? So after seeing Naruto, he ran away without saying a word.

"Sasuke! Damn it..." Seeing Sasuke just glance at him and run away, Naruto followed suit.

"Wait a minute Naruto..." Seeing Naruto following him regardless, Shikamaru sighed helplessly and followed him again.

Qi Fei also wanted to move, but the ground suddenly shook.

"Early Fern Dance!"

Countless bone spurs emerged from the ground, covering the entire battlefield indiscriminately. Each of the densely packed bone spurs was as big as a tree, and the entire battlefield turned into a forest composed of bones.

Naruto and the others happened to be far away, so they were not affected by the Bone Forest.

Click, click, click... Qi Fei kicked the bone spurs around him and waited for Kimimaro's next blow.

【You won’t die even if you do this, life is really hard.】

"For Lord Orochimaru!"

A huge bone spur emerged from the ground behind Qi Fei and stood behind Qi Fei. Kimimaro's dilapidated body emerged from the bone spur.

At this time, his left hand had been completely burned, and his whole body was scorched, exposing the bones that were roasted black. His face was covered with helmet-like bone fragments, and his right hand turned into an extremely huge spear and stabbed Qi Fei.

past.

"go to hell!"

Poof - holding the black stick protruding from his palm with his backhand, Qi Fei turned around deftly to avoid Kimimaro's spear, and then pierced Kimimaro's chest with the stick.

"Lord Orochimaru..." Kimimaro lowered his head and arms and murmured.

Feeling the information coming from the black stick, Qi Fei could confirm that Kimimaro was dead.

[Looks like I don’t need to go there. Let’s wait for someone to come back.]

After looking at the direction of Naruto and the others with his Byakugan, Qi Fei walked directly in the opposite direction, heading towards where Kiba, Choji and the others were.

On the other side, Naruto was still chasing Sasuke's back relentlessly, while Shikamaru followed behind him with a troubled look on his face.

He actually wanted to tell Naruto to wait for Qi Fei. After all, with him here, Sasuke could go anywhere and be tied back without any problem. Unfortunately, Naruto was not listening at all.

Helpless, as the captain, he had to ensure the safety of every team member. So he could only follow Naruto to ensure his safety, and wait for Qi Fei to catch up.

Boom——A sudden explosion in front interrupted Shikamaru's thinking.

A green shadow emerged from the smoke and kicked Naruto from the tree into the mud.

"New support?"

He was about to call Naruto's name, but Shikamaru shut his mouth instantly. Because he saw that the other person did not pay attention to him.

When he saw the figure falling to the ground and wanted to kill Naruto with a crystal-like weapon, Shikamaru quickly formed seals with his hands and controlled the shadow to crawl towards the opponent's feet.

The opponent reacted very quickly. When he noticed something was wrong, he immediately jumped away and shot several crystal-like shurikens towards Shikamaru's position with his backhand.

Shikamaru also rushed to Naruto's side at this time and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Naruto was safe.

"Damn it, Sasuke..." Seeing Sasuke leave without looking back, Naruto was filled with anger.

He eagerly wanted to know why this happened and why Sasuke abandoned his companions in the Leaf Village.

However, every time he was about to catch up with Sasuke, someone would always block his way.

"Crystal Release: Hexagonal Shuriken Flurry!"

Countless snowflake-shaped shurikens were shot at the location of Shikamaru and Naruto from all directions, and there was no way to dodge them.

Ding ding ding - Just when Shikamaru and the others were at their wits' end, a wall of ice suddenly rose around them, blocking all the crystal shurikens.

"Why is she here?" Standing on the branch, Qi Fei looked at the figure hidden behind the trunk not far away and said to himself.

Little Leopard was still lying lazily on his shoulder, indifferent to the world.
