Ninja Ice House

The sudden change caught the unprepared Konan and the Red Sand Scorpion off guard. Konan, who has the ability to fly, reacted faster. The wings made of paper flapped, arousing strong airflow and lift, allowing the mysterious female ninja to fly up.

The sky was protected from the crashing waves.

The Crimson Sand Scorpion was not so lucky. Fei Liuhu was a human puppet who was good at defense and his mobility was not outstanding. He was a typical stand-up fort and could only endure the huge waves sweeping everything.

Fortunately, the vital part of the Red Sand Scorpion only has a regeneration core, and does not have the so-called vital points of ordinary ninjas. Under the impact of the angry sea waves, it was thrown to the ground again and again and hit the rocks, but it still did not disintegrate.

After floating up and down for nearly ten minutes, the Red Sand Scorpion finally found an opportunity. He grabbed a thick tree trunk, swung it hard, and threw himself up high, landing on the top of a higher hill.

His whole body was stained with filth and sludge, and his originally impressive attire was no longer as intimidating as before.

As for Xiaonan, who had escaped earlier, he watched condescendingly as the salt water overflowing the seawall surged back and forth, and finally a nearly 100-meter-high water monster rose up. At first glance, it looked like a mountain with eyes and a huge mouth, but it was weird.

A dozen slender tentacles protruded from the ground. It was obvious that they were made of sea water, mixed with some shallow sea algae, and showed a little green.

There were even a few trapped small fish swimming inside the sea monster's chest.

"What the hell is this?"

The red sand scorpion asked doubtfully.

Xiaonan, who has been in the Kingdom of Rain for a long time, is not familiar with monsters in the sea. The Red Sand Scorpion, who was born in the Kingdom of Wind, is born to be in conflict with water.

The two people came excitedly, not knowing whether they were confronting natural creatures or man-made manipulations.

While Xiao Nan and the Scarlet Sand Scorpion were stunned, the people from the "Zha He Zhong" had already taken advantage of the opportunity to leave quickly, dived into the seabed, and escaped far away. Only a few masters who needed to maintain their strength were observing in secret.

Tens of meters deep under the water, a group of powerful fishmen silently refined chakra, gathered it together, and transported it into the body of the sea monster to maintain its shape and combat power.

The cold Konan did not flinch from this, and quickly released a pile of paper shurikens and shot them, sinking into the sea monster's body, and then quickly exploded.

Seeing how easily they could break through the defense and even blow up part of the sea monster, Xiao Nan and the Red Sand Scorpion were relieved. Before they could continue their attack, they saw the sea water squirming, and the damaged parts of their bodies quickly recovered.

He was not affected by the "injury" at all.

"immortal?"

Frowning, Konan descended slightly, harassing the sea monster with Shiki Dance while approaching the Red Sand Scorpion.

"It's a bit troublesome."

The ninja world has countless weird secret techniques. Immortality to a certain extent is quite rare, but it is not just one or two. The well-informed members of the "Akatsuki" organization will not panic over such a small scene.

.

"I do have some countermeasures, such as using strong fire to evaporate them, but it's difficult to kill them."

Nearby is the boundless sea. In theory, the sea monster can be replenished infinitely.

"There may not be any benefit in killing it, so use sealing technique."

After Xiaonan finished speaking, the Red Sand Scorpion fell silent.

The technology of making human puppets and regenerating cores also involves relatively advanced sealing techniques, but such a big thing is really difficult to "master".

Konan, who has a strong fighting ability, is not good at sealing and barrier techniques, but Nagato, who has the Samsara Eye, is very good at dealing with such big guys.

"I don't like being hostile to such a monster either."

After thinking for a moment, Xiaonan couldn't help but shake her head.

Even if she had to fight the "Five Shadows" for 300 rounds, Konan was unwilling to fight with the nearly immortal sea monster. Winning might not necessarily be beneficial, and losing would be a loss of majesty.

The secret art of shikizhi dance seems to be naturally restrained by such things.

Tangible high-speed concealed weapons are too easily blocked by water escape.

Different from ordinary people's senses, in some cases, the defense of water escape is even far superior to that of earth escape.

The flexible water escape is more effective than the rigid earth escape when resisting external explosion attacks. Only internal explosions can effectively kill targets in the water. Water has good fluidity, and in terms of "energy absorption and damage reduction",

It works really well.

Hidden weapons like shurikens have no effect if the speed is low, and useless if the speed is high. They can only cause effective damage within a very narrow range of firing speed, and the range is limited to less than three meters.

The principle is the same as shooting at water with an assault rifle or sniper rifle. The bullet will either rebound and deflect, or it will hit the steel plate and break into powder. Even if it luckily enters the water, the bullet will be quickly engulfed and disabled by the water, the speed will be greatly reduced, and the damage will be lost.

The more powerful a firearm is, the less effective it is in water, and its performance is not as good as an ordinary pistol.

It's the same in the ninja world. When using hidden weapons to deal with Water Release, don't use too much strength. Unless the Wind Release is attached and has a strong cutting effect, it is extremely difficult for a physical strike to penetrate a water shield of more than five meters.

If the strength is too small and the initial speed is too low, the ninja can dodge it with the naked eye due to its super perception and mobility.

Theoretically, a well-prepared water escape ninja is the least afraid of being attacked by hidden weapons.

Therefore, no matter how powerful the Shiki Paper Dance's attack is or how powerful the explosion is, it can't do anything about the infinitely replenishable water monsters, and the red sand scorpion's poison-quenching hidden weapons, poisonous smoke, etc. are even more powerless.

If you really want to take action, there is still a way, but it's not worth it.

"We seem to have underestimated this rapidly rising wandering ninja organization. Their strength is actually so powerful, and they also have... the Sharingan."

Xiao Nan used paper to make a long white lock, rolled up Fei Liuhu, and the two distanced themselves again, nimbly dodging the attack of a water arrow.

The Red Sand Scorpion laughed a few times, and then said noncommittally:

"I was wondering if I accidentally broke through the Uchiha family's life-saving back-up plan for the golden cicada to escape. It is impossible for such a large ninja clan to be killed overnight. There will always be a few fish that slip through the net. From the Warring States Period

The survivors so far must not be too naive. There are many plans on how to maintain the family bloodline from being cut off."

Uchiha Itachi didn't lie, but he might have been deceived. Even the entire Konoha Village and most of the residents of the ninja world were fooled by the Uchiha family.

"I have carefully investigated Uchiha Fugaku. He has neglected his practice due to the burden of his family, and his talent in ninjutsu has not been fully realized. However, as the leader of the clan, he has done a good job. He has no intention of leaving a way out for the family.

strangeness."

"In this case, the importance of the 'Za He Zhong' will increase. The Sharingan is not ordinary..."

Today's "Akatsuki" organization is far from the complete entity it was on the eve of the Fourth Ninja War in the original timeline. Several important core members are gone. The partners of the Red Sand Scorpion have changed several times, and they met Orochimaru.

Such a weird thing, the two not only failed to cooperate with each other, but even turned against each other; Kakuzu, that mysterious guy, was still trying to trick his partners to death, until Hidan, an even crazier believer of the evil god, appeared.

Itachi Uchiha, who had just joined, lost his partner Juuzou Loquat in his first action. Kisame Inigaki, who was supposed to defect, didn't know if he would have a chance to join the "Akatsuki" organization.

Very short of manpower!

This is a headache for Nagato, Konan, Zetsu and Uchiha Obito.

Not only must he be strong and have the value to be exploited, but he must also be tricked into joining the "Akatsuki" organization. There are really too few reliable targets.

The recent rise of the "Zahe Zhong" has stirred up the waters in the Kingdom of Sichuan, and Xiaonan has also moved his mind to come to test. It would be better if he could find one or two useful talents.

As a result, as soon as I tried to test it, it was like poking a hornet's nest.

"The nearby members of the Zahe Zhong have all run away. They probably followed the current and dived to the bottom of the sea, avoiding our sight."

Neither of them are experts in water combat, and they know very little about underwater combat.

"I feel like a lifeless puppet, retreat."

Having lost the best opportunity for a surprise attack, Xiaonan was unwilling to continue struggling, but the Red Sand Scorpion was unwilling to return without success.

"let me."

As he spoke, the Red Sand Scorpion took out a scroll and channeled the human puppet of the third generation Kazekage. It flew into the sky with the help of magnetic escape. The black sand iron gathered into a column and went deep into the water, like sand growing on the sea.

Iron Forest.

With the help of the sand and iron pillars to provide magnetism, the red sand scorpion flexibly shuttles freely in the sand and iron forest through reaction with itself. After approaching the sea monster, it used the sand and iron to gather into a sledgehammer, swung it down violently, and hit the sea hard.

Blame it on yourself.

There was only a burst of explosions and the sound of splashing water. Half of the sea monster's head and shoulders were completely shattered and turned into water splashes and fell into the sea.

"interesting."

This was not the first time that Xiaonan had seen the Red Sand Scorpion use Magnetic Escape and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"I didn't expect you to have such a violent side."

The huge sand iron hammer head, under the control of the red sand scorpion, struck left and right, and the sea monster counterattacked with a tentacle-like water whip.

The power of Magnetic Release is astonishing. It is indeed the famous skill of the Third Kazekage. Normal Water Release attacks cannot do anything to it, and even the interference effect of Water Release and Sand Release is not exerted.

The secret technique used to stop the Red Sand Scorpion and Xiao Nan was of course not that simple. The sea monster's figure grew taller again and became even bigger. It seemed that what was originally exposed was just the tip of the iceberg, and now the part under the water is also exposed.

come out.

The sea monster's size had doubled several times. Four Sharingan eyes arranged in a diamond shape appeared in the center of the reunited head, and the upper core one revealed a twisted windmill page shape.

"The Mangekyo Sharingan, could it be said that it was really arranged by Uchiha Fugaku?"

The Red Sand Scorpion, who is in charge of the intelligence power of the "Akatsuki" organization, must be very concerned about the Mangekyō Sharingan, but there is not much truly valuable information. The only thing that has been confirmed is "Shunshen Shisui" and becoming a

"Comrade" Uchiha Itachi.

"The Sharingan, which surpasses the three magatama, actually appears here..."

Xiaonan became more and more aware that the "Miscellaneous Hezhong" was not simple, and her original intention of retreating faded away, and instead she had the idea of ​​digging out the truth.

Immediately, paper shurikens fell on the sea monster like a curtain of rain.

Even the so-called "immortal body" was suppressed in front of Xiaonan and could not hold his head up. He could only rely on his physical strength and secret support to fight a war of attrition.

Xiaonan is not an ordinary person. He has countless paper shurikens in his storage. The continuous explosions lasted for nearly three minutes. Finally, the destructive power exceeded the recovery power in an instant. The giant sea monster could not withstand the continuous blows and shattered into pieces.

Come.

But this is not the end, and the broken pieces have not disappeared, but have become small slime-like slime monsters.

"The power is good, but the opponent is really difficult to deal with."

The Red Sand Scorpion sneered a few times,

"It's just a big target. It's nothing to be afraid of if you just get hit without fighting back. Next, let me clean up these debris. I'm better at it."

The Crimson Sand Scorpion said that it would cover and shoot with a rain curtain of sand iron projectiles to completely eliminate these annoying little water monsters. Xiaonan suddenly turned around and looked at Fei Liuhu and the Crimson Sand Scorpion body in his body.

"You didn't notice it? It seems that the Sharingan is indeed well-deserved..."

"What do you mean?"

The red sand scorpion was about to ask. Before he could react, he felt an inexplicable chakra being injected into his body, disrupting the order of operation in his body. Immediately, the scene in front of him changed. As his thoughts became clear, the large trumpet that was still standing

The sea monster was throwing out water guns to attack, but was blocked by Shiki Paper Dance.

"I...fell under the illusion, when?"

Even though he knew the name of the Sharingan and had seen Uchiha Itachi's tyranny, facing the Mangekyo Sharingan for the first time still frightened the long-famous genius puppet master.

This is not the unique pupil technique of the Mangekyō Sharingan, but it is used to strengthen the power of illusion. This level has made the Red Sand Scorpion, who has not been controlled by illusion for decades, find it unbelievable.

If it hadn't been for Xiaonan's help, I don't know when I would have discovered that I was under an illusion.

"It feels like it's been a long time..."

"Actually, the pause was less than five seconds..."

"It's really scary."

Xiaonan's explanation made the Red Sand Scorpion begin to face up to the areas it had neglected in the past.

Even the "sea monster" who has mastered the power of the Sharingan has such strength. It's no wonder that the serious Uchiha tribe can achieve such a great reputation.

The two sides fought for a while, and the Red Sand Scorpion suddenly made an important discovery.

"There seems to be someone manipulating the water. Would you like to go down and have a look?"

Magnetic Escape has a strong interference effect on the movement of chakra. When the sand iron pillar was inserted into the bottom of the water, the obscure chakra fluctuations were also felt.

"That's not necessary."

Time is so precious, how can it be wasted on such a small character.

As he spoke, Xiaonan bit off his finger and used the psychic technique, and saw the appearance of the Heavenly Dao and the Hungry Ghost Dao with Samsara pupils in his eyes.

Tiandao, who has been active as the leader of the "Akatsuki" organization, stretched his arms forward, and the power of Shinra's Tianzheng exploded. The sea monster and a piece of water were instantly blown out of a big hole. After the waves surged back and forth, and then quickly subsided, the hungry ghost Dao fell.

On the surface of the water, he used a sealing seal to swallow up all the nearby chakra. All chakra-based ninjutsu effects ceased to exist, and the so-called "immortality" of the sea monster was naturally gone.

Xiaonan and the Red Sand Scorpion felt that the powerful enemy was difficult to deal with and required a lot of effort to defeat. In front of the "leader", they killed it with just a few moves, which shocked the Red Sand Scorpion who was watching.

"It seems that your search for formal members has failed."

There is no explanation, the battle in front of you is the best answer.

"If it doesn't work here, try going to Earth Country. There are some good guys there."
