The ground was a relatively open wasteland.
The sunlight was dazzling, but the air was fresh.
Dou followed closely behind, leaping out of the hole and landing on the ground.
He stared at the enormous green giant before him, and the half-skull beside him radiating an ominous red light, his face so grim it could drip water.
He knew his greatest strength.
The advantage of location has disappeared.
"We must fight quickly!"
A glint of madness flashed in Kabuto's eyes as he slammed his hands into the ground once more, channeling Sage Chakra into an even wider expanse of earth!
"Immortal Technique: Inorganic Reincarnation!"
This time, it's not just the land beneath our feet.
Even the scattered boulders and broken trees in the distance seemed to come alive.
Transforming into even larger and more ferocious stone giants and wooden behemoths, they charged towards the two Susanoo like a tidal wave!
Meanwhile, the ground continues to rise and collapse, attempting to disrupt the balance of Susanoo.
"sucker Punch!"
Shisui let out a cold shout and manipulated Susanoo to expand its chest!
"Susanohu·ninety-nine!"
In an instant, the armor on the chest of the Perfect Susanoo opened, and countless chakra arrows, like green meteors, shot out!
These arrows struck the core of each charging stone giant and wooden behemoth with pinpoint accuracy, triggering violent explosions that destroyed them one by one!
Meanwhile, Itachi controlled half of Susanoo, holding the Yata Mirror firmly.
He blocked all of Kabuto's bone spike attacks and various ninjutsu, which came from the side as cunning as venomous snakes!
The Yata Mirror's absolute defense rendered all of Kabuto's ranged attacks futile.
"It's over, Kabuto!"
Shisui controlled Susanoo and leaped into the air, the huge spiral sword carrying the power to tear the sky down towards Kabuto's head!
Before the sword even arrived, its sharp sword energy had already pressed a deep trench into the ground!
Faced with this fatal blow, despair finally appeared in Kabuto's eyes.
He exerted all his strength, gathering the remaining Sage Chakra in front of him.
Several layers of thick bone shields were formed, combining the properties of Earth Release: Hardening Technique and snake scales, while the body flew backward rapidly!
"Crack! Crack! Crack!"
The spiral sword sliced through the layers of bone shields with ease, like a hot knife through butter!
The momentum was only slightly reduced, but it still slashed down fiercely!
“Pfft——!!!”
Blood gushed out like a fountain!
Kabuto let out a shrill scream as his left arm, along with half of his shoulder, was severed cleanly by the spiral sword!
The terrifying sword energy invaded his body, frantically destroying his meridians and internal organs!
He flew backward like a tattered sack, crashing heavily onto the ground hundreds of meters away, carving a long furrow in the ground. His fate remains unknown.
The green, fully formed Susanoo slowly dissipated, and Shisui fell back to the ground, his face pale and breathing slightly heavily.
The continuous high-intensity battles and summoning the complete Susanoo had taken a heavy toll on him.
Itachi's half-body Susanoo was also released at the same time. He staggered and covered his bleeding eyes with his hands. The side effects of the Mangekyou Sharingan began to appear.
The two cautiously approached the spot where the goblin had fallen.
However, as they approached, all they saw was a horrifying pool of blood and a severed arm covered in white scales.
But Kabuto's true form had vanished!
"Cough cough...hehe...hahahaha..."
A weak voice, yet filled with maniacal laughter, came from behind a pile of rocks in the distance.
Yakushi Kabuto leaned against the rock and managed to stand up.
The wound on his severed arm was visibly and inhumanly moving to stop the bleeding and heal.
Although it cannot regenerate instantly, its terrifying regenerative power is still chilling.
His face was ashen, and his breath was extremely weak, clearly indicating that he had suffered an unprecedented blow.
But ultimately, it was Orochimaru's substitution technique combined with his own powerful cellular activity and Sage Mode energy that made him the winner.
He narrowly escaped a fatal blow at the last moment and survived.
“Uchiha…Shisui…Uchiha…Itachi…”
Panting heavily, Dou adjusted his crooked glasses; the snake-like membrane behind the lenses remained icy cold: "This time... you won... but..."
He stared intently at the two of them, his eyes filled with resentment and bitterness.
"The game... isn't over yet... As long as I'm alive... the Edo Tensei contract... remains valid... We... will meet again..."
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly bit his finger, conjuring up a thick cloud of smoke. He then merged into the smoke and vanished instantly!
Reverse psychic techniques!
Shisui and Itachi wanted to give chase, but both of them were already at their limit.
Both his chakra and eye power were exhausted, so he could only watch helplessly as Kabuto escaped.
"But... he got away..." Shisui clenched his fists with some resentment.
"But he suffered a fatal blow and is unlikely to pose a threat in the short term."
Itachi covered his eyes and comforted them in a hoarse voice, as if trying to convince himself.
The two stood on the wasteland, looking at the chaotic battlefield and the glaring bloodstains before them, but felt little joy in their victory.
Although they successfully dealt a heavy blow to Kabuto and destroyed his lair, they failed to completely eliminate him, leaving behind a huge hidden danger.
The battle must continue!
Chapter 476 Seeing the Dean Again
The wind whistled in my ears, and the afterimages of the trees formed a blurry green barrier.
Kabuto didn't know how long he had been running or how far he had escaped.
He had only one thought.
Stay away from those two Uchiha, stay away from that destroyed nest!
The excruciating pain emanating from his severed left shoulder was like a leech, relentlessly assaulting his nerves.
The powerful regenerative abilities granted by Sage Mode are working diligently to repair the damage.
Newly formed granulation tissue wriggles and intertwines at the wound site, attempting to stop the bleeding and reconnect.
But Uchiha Shisui's final attack contained highly condensed wind-style chakra.
Like countless tiny, rotating blades, they stubbornly dwell deep within the wound, continuously causing destruction and cutting.
It greatly slowed down the healing process, bringing waves of soul-wrenching pain.
This pain comes not only from the body, but also from the heart.
He's no nobody!
He is not a tool that Lord Orochimaru can discard at will!
It is not an appendage of "Mr. Ban" who hides behind the scenes and doesn't even dare to show his true face!
He is Kabuto Yakushi!
He is a person with a name and background, who achieved success through his own wisdom and hard work!
He mastered the Sage Techniques of Ryuchi Cave, optimized the Impure World Reincarnation, and even once turned the entire ninja world upside down!
He wanted everyone to remember this name!
The name of fear!
However, the harsh reality was like a bucket of ice water, extinguishing his fervent flames of revenge.
His chakra was almost completely depleted during the previous fierce battle and desperate escape.
Waves of dizziness from excessive blood loss washed over me, my vision began to blur, and my steps became unsteady.
He knocked down a small tree that was about the size of a bowl.
He fell into a thicket of bushes, sharp branches tearing at his tattered clothes and skin.
Finally, he could no longer hold on, and like a puppet with its strings cut, he tumbled down a gentle slope.
It crashed heavily onto the bank of a crystal-clear river, splashing water everywhere.
The icy river water soaked his body, slightly relieving the burning pain of his wounds, but also taking away his last bit of strength.
He lay on his back on the pebbles of the riverbank, panting heavily, his chest heaving violently, and his vision blurring.
The sky spun and blurred in his eyes, as if the whole world was drifting away from him.
He tried to prop himself up, but his arms gave way and he collapsed to the ground again.
The wound on his severed arm reopened due to the movement, and blood gushed out, staining a small patch of the river water beneath him red.
The damage from the wind-style chakra made it difficult for him to even stop the bleeding.
Consciousness is like a candle flickering in the wind, about to be extinguished.
In the last second before he was plunged into complete darkness, he seemed to see a figure at the edge of his blurred vision.
They are slowly walking from the woods on the other side of the river.
