Chapter 21 Captain Cheng is indeed a monster!
Chapter 21 Captain Cheng is indeed a monster!
An ordinary ninja?
Upon hearing Makoto's self-introduction, not only was Obito furious and nearly vomited blood, but the other Mist Ninja were also at a loss for words.
Boss, you're already a regular ninja, so what are we?
"Cough cough... I knew it..."
Aoki coughed up blood and looked at the skeletal figure of Makoto Kuraki, which exuded a chilling aura. There was little surprise in his eyes, but rather a sense of relief and awe that he had expected.
That makes sense.
In a place like Kirigakure, how could someone with sufficient strength possibly reveal such an attitude of being carefree and idle, and still manage to live peacefully until now, even holding an important position?
As expected of Captain Cheng!
The way the surrounding Mist Ninjas looked at Makoto Karatachi completely changed.
Yes, what kind of place is Kirigakure?
Although the Blood Mist Village has not yet fully descended, the brutality of the competition and the oppressive atmosphere are already second to none among the five great nations.
A complete good-for-nothing with no background might be able to survive by relying on his family's protection, but someone like Makoto Karatachi, who bears the name of a playboy, can leisurely hold a nominal position in the security department, be assigned to be in charge of the island's defense, and even serve as the on-site commander in top-secret missions...
This alone speaks volumes!
They may have been misled by appearances before, or they may have thought that he relied purely on his family and his relationship with Yagura.
But now it seems that Captain Cheng is hiding his true strength and power far beyond their imagination!
Whether it was Nohara Rin who had previously resisted the transformation into a tailed beast, or the Shikotsumyaku (Corpse Bone Pulse) and combat abilities she displayed at this moment.
All of this proves one point.
This is no spoiled brat; he's a ferocious beast in sheep's clothing!
"Captain Makoto... he's incredibly powerful!"
A young Chunin muttered to himself, his mind involuntarily recalling his previous disdainful remarks about his captain's unreliability, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
"No wonder the Mizukage entrusted such an important mission to Aquamarine Island..."
The eyes of the assembled Mist Ninja were filled with awe, and the solemnity and tension in their hearts eased somewhat.
With such a powerful and unassuming expert in charge, this strangely cunning fellow doesn't seem so terrifying after all.
"Aaaaah! Get out of my way!"
In the center of the battlefield, Obito let out a beast-like roar.
Lin's body was nearby, but he couldn't move an inch.
Coupled with Makoto Gojibana's composed and confident demeanor, as if he were commenting on a junior, it completely ignited the humiliation and rage within him.
Obito no longer held back, frantically squeezing out the White Zetsu cells and chakra within his body. The branches around him expanded and spread wildly, growing and coiling in all directions. Countless branches, like giant pythons that had come to life, strangled Makoto from all sides, creating a terrifying spectacle!
Not only that.
As the branches spread, Obito's kaleidoscope eyes also spun, continuously releasing his ocular power, and the distorted power of Kamui seemed to be released and merged into it as well.
Chaos in Hell!
"That's more like it."
Faced with the chaotic, twisted power of Wood Release and Kamui that seemed to emerge from the depths of hell, Makoto Karatachi's playful expression finally vanished, and his eyes became incredibly focused and sharp.
He could sense the difference in this move; compared to the previous Wood Release ninjutsu, this move was on a completely different level.
With Ah Fei's help, she's still too much of a supermodel.
"Alright, there's not much time left anyway."
With sincere devotion, Goji ju chanted, and his chakra surged like a river, frantically pouring into his Shikotsu Meridian.
In the instant that countless vines blocked and strangled him, countless white bones began to grow wildly and burst out of Makoto Goji's body!
Rumble!!!
The earth, centered on Goujucheng, trembled violently and cracked.
They weren't individual bone spurs, but rather a white forest.
Countless enormous, densely packed, layered, and incomparably sharp bone spikes, like primordial beasts awakening from their slumber beneath the earth, burst forth and soar into the sky, colliding violently with the hellish chaos that was engulfing them from all directions!
"Hiss hiss hiss!!!"
"Crack! Boom!"
The collision between the white bones and the chaos of hell produced a chilling sound of friction and shattering.
The chaos of hell is indeed powerful. The twisted vines contain the life force of Wood Release and the tearing sensation of Kamui space, as if they want to drag everything they touch into another dimension and crush it.
However, it was still somewhat insufficient against the ultimate killing move of the Corpse Bone Pulse.
Every bone in the bone forest was harder than iron and sharper than iron. With the help of Makoto Karatachi's chakra, they did not passively defend themselves, but instead, as if they had a life of their own, frantically pierced upwards, spread, and strangled!
The stalemate lasted only a moment before the white torrent, with unstoppable force, completely overwhelmed the dark red frenzy.
Bone spurs tore through tree branches and pierced through vines, crushing the chaos of hell with overwhelming force!
All the Mist Ninjas had no choice but to retreat again and again, staring in horror at the scene of the collision ahead.
"The Dance of the Early Ferns... the ultimate secret technique of the Kaguya clan's legend, Captain Makoto doesn't even know this..."
"Is this...is this Captain Cheng's true strength?!"
Aoki stared in disbelief, muttering, "You're the real monster, Captain Makoto."
He couldn't help but recall how, not long ago, that kid Manyue would occasionally try to challenge Gouju Makoto.
Although it's unclear why she's been behaving herself these past few days, if Full Moon were to see this scene, her jaw would probably drop in astonishment.
In the center of the battlefield, Obito's single eye was bloodshot, and his gums were bleeding from biting them.
"How is this possible... How could I lose to someone with such a weak constitution?!"
"Aaaaaah! Lin!!"
Kenji let out another blood-curdling roar, recklessly pouring all his remaining chakra and eye power into it.
However, Makoto Karimoto's Early Fern Dance seemed to have no limits; no matter how much he pushed his power, he could never contend with the skeleton.
A massive bone spike, exceptionally thick and with a tip gleaming with cold light, even tore through several layers of Wood Release defenses and spatial distortions like a breaching cone, and stabbed fiercely toward Obito's main body!
Obito instinctively tried to Hollow out, but he was extremely mentally exhausted, his chakra was disordered, and his right eye was in excruciating pain. The Hollowing process was delayed by a negligible moment.
It's this very moment!
"Pfft!"
The tip of the bone spur grazed Obito's materialized right shoulder, spraying blood and tearing his robes. It even scraped off half of his twisted wooden mask, revealing a corner of the scarred, mad, and pain-ridden face of the boy beneath!
"Ugh!"
Obito cried out in pain, staggered backward, and his shoulder was covered in blood.
No, it's impossible.
I absolutely cannot give up like this.
I want to take Rin back, and that bastard Kakashi too, I want her, I want her...
"That's enough, Obito. You'll die if this continues."
It's Ah Fei!
