Naruto: Naruto's Uchiha girlfriend is too arrogant

Chapter 422 Spiral Explosion

Amidst the rain and the roar of the waves, Hiruko's screams were particularly piercing.

"Damn it... what the hell is this thing?! I can't absorb it?!"

He arched his body in agony, his hands futilely scratching at the black flames clinging to his skin.

If it weren't for the fact that his Steel Release bloodline limit had already strengthened his skin, he would probably have already turned into a charred corpse under the entanglement of these eerie black flames.

"Give up, you're no match for me."

Uchiha Shisui's voice was calm, clear, and sincere, like an admonition, without the arrogance of a victor or the mockery of the weak.

"Give up... Stop looking down on me—!!"

This calm only intensified the long-suppressed humiliation and resentment of Beiliuhu.

Why? Why do these born noble bloodlines possess such power?! He roared fiercely, forcibly breaking free from the burning pain of the black flames, and instantly activated his Swift Escape bloodline power!

"call out--!"

The figure suddenly blurred, turning into a blur that was difficult to catch with the naked eye, and rushed straight towards Zhishui with a sharp whooshing sound!

However, the water stopped reacting faster than expected.

There was no dazzling light from his eye technique, no massive burst of chakra; it was merely a basic application of the Body Flicker Technique. He turned to the side, tilted his head, and at the same time, his short sword precisely blocked Hiruko's left arm, wrapped in bandages, which was coming right after his punch.

"Clang! Clang clang clang—!"

The short sword clashed violently with the bandages wrapped in Steel Release chakra, producing a sharp sound like metal being struck!

Hiruko was utterly shocked. How could this be?! He had used Swift Release, a bloodline limit renowned for its speed! And his opponent had completely kept up with his pace using only the most basic Body Flicker Technique?

genius……

This realization pierced the sensitive corner of Biluhu's heart. That innate, despairing gap in talent was once again brutally displayed before him.

"Storm Release: Thundercloud Wave!"

Using the force of the violent collision and recoil, Hiruko retreated rapidly, his hands already forming hand seals as he walked backward! Above his head, chakra gathered wildly, and a small patch of dark rain cloud instantly formed, with lightning rolling inside!

"Sizzle—Boom!"

Several twisted blue-white bolts of lightning roared as they pierced through the clouds and rain, violently striking down towards where Zhi Shui stood!

At the same time, Hiruko continued to move, activating his Swift Escape once more.

Faced with the lightning strike that descended from the sky, Shisui's mind stirred slightly.

"boom!"

A crimson skull instantly rose from the ground, completely enveloping his body. The massive skeletal arms of Susanoo's initial form crossed above, absorbing all the lightning strikes.

Shisui's gaze pierced through the gaps in the skeleton, calmly observing the rapidly moving Hiruko on the outside.

With its ability to absorb ninjutsu through Dark Release, its speed through Swift Release, its powerful attacks through Storm Release, and even Amaterasu's fire, which couldn't quickly achieve its purpose due to the opponent's Steel Release foundation, it has almost no obvious weaknesses in offense, defense, speed, techniques, and resistance.

A "perfect" ninja, built up through plunder and stitching.

That's really troublesome.

A resolute glint flashed in Shisui's eyes. There was no time to delay; the battlefield was ever-changing, and a swift victory was essential.

"Yuzu... lend me your power."

"Buzz—!"

The kaleidoscope pattern in his eyes suddenly began to spin faster, and his pupil power surged out like a burst dam!

The crimson Susanoo outside the body underwent a dramatic change! The skeleton emitted a loud "crackling" sound, rapidly multiplying, and red chakra transformed into flesh and tendons that climbed wildly along the bones. Then, the armor was rapidly forged in the torrent of chakra!

Susanoo - Third Form!

The towering half-giant stood on the sea, radiating a terrifying pressure far deeper and more vast than before. Rainwater evaporated into white mist the moment it approached its energy body.

"Ten-Fist Sword".

The red giant swung his arm, and the huge crimson blade ignored Hiruko's Swift Escape speed, which he was so proud of, and also ignored his steel-style defense that was stretched to the limit.

"Pfft—!"

It was the dull thud of a sharp weapon piercing flesh.

Hiruko's movements came to an abrupt halt. He looked down in disbelief at the massive red sword tip, made entirely of chakra, protruding from the center of his chest.

"What...is this?" he asked with difficulty, feeling his body become incredibly heavy, every cell resisting his will, even lifting a finger becoming extremely difficult.

"You think... this level of attack..."

He tried to mobilize his chakra, activate Dark Release or any bloodline ability to resist or repair himself, but was horrified to find that all the chakra in his body could not be controlled according to his will!

"Wha...what's going on?! Ninjutsu...can't be used?!"

"It's... a sealing technique... How is this possible?!"

He finally understood the true nature of that red blade. It wasn't an ordinary energy attack; it was... a legendary magical weapon that could seal anything it touched!

The next moment, an irresistible suction force emanated from the Totsuka Blade piercing his body. Hiruko felt the "concept" of his physical existence begin to melt away.

The person's form quickly became blurred, turning into a distorted stream of light that was completely absorbed.

The light flowed back along the sword and eventually disappeared into the huge, red gourd-shaped container hanging at the waist of the red Susanoo.

Even after defeating Hiruko, Uchiha Shisui did not let his guard down.

Sensing the situation, not far away, inside the hemispherical cage made of ice crystals, Zabuza Momochi and Haku's auras held a clear advantage, while Juzo Biwa and Raiga Kurosuki's chakra was already as weak as a candle in the wind, clearly indicating their defeat was inevitable.

"Go and support Kakuzu."

Shisui quickly made a judgment in his mind and was preparing to use the Body Flicker Technique to enter another battle area—

His movements suddenly stopped.

Suddenly, the sea beneath their feet, which should have only been filled with waves, began to tremble strangely. It wasn't the ripples caused by the ninja battle, but rather the muffled sound of something much larger... the operation of machinery.

------

"Boom... Rumble..."

On the sea, a massive shadow quietly emerged, its outline quickly becoming clear. It was a creation of steel, carrying the oppressive feeling unique to the industrial age.

One, two, three... an astonishing number of underwater fortresses, or rather, strangely shaped warships, were slowly drifting away from the deep sea.

Above the bridge, a symbol that has faded from the mainstream view of the ninja world for many years is clearly painted on it—the headband pattern of the Sky Ninja Village.

These war machines, dormant for many years, silently and methodically sailed into the seas of this battlefield.

"All combat units, deploy as planned! Flight units, begin boarding preparations!"

The command, broadcast through loudspeakers, rang out from the lead giant mothership. On the deck, the air ninjas, who had been lined up and waiting, moved at the order.

They quickly slung their mechanical wing backpacks over their shoulders, the ninjas inspecting the explosives mounted on their bodies with cold eyes.

Their mission was clear: while the two sides were locked in fierce combat, they would use overwhelming numbers and surprise tactics to completely annihilate the [Ember] organization.

However, they were unaware that, higher up, a pair of excited eyes were fixed on them and the massive steel warships beneath their feet, which resembled moving islands.

"Whoa whoa whoa—!!!!"

Deidara's heart pounded with excitement.

"That's more like it! This scale! This industrial aesthetic! This is the perfect medium for me to 'elevate' with my latest art! Hmm!"

The neatly arranged warships below, gleaming with a cold metallic light, were not tools of war in Deidara's eyes, but blank canvases waiting to be painted with the most magnificent and explosive colors.

"Hahaha! Feel honored, aren't you? You'll be witnessing my C5 debut! Hmm!"

His hands had already drawn large handfuls of explosive clay from the ninja tool pouch at his waist, and he greedily chewed on it, mixing and refining it.

Unlike any other time, this clay shaping process was exceptionally slow and heavy. A special chakra base plate, with a spiral groove in the center, formed between his palms. The base plate generated a powerful suction, continuously drawing in more and more clay that had undergone intense compression and property changes.

At the center of the base, a pitch-black sphere gradually expanded and solidified, containing unsettling and unstable energy fluctuations within.

As the last bit of clay was swallowed, the black sphere finally reached a perfect balance and saturation, quietly floating in Deidara's palm.

"This is a parting gift... never mind, it's not really my style. Hmm."

"Let's keep it the same! Name it after the explosion itself!"

He held the dangerous black sphere high in the air.

"Cheers! For my latest art! C5 Exploding Spiral Wheel!!!"

He swung his arm back with all his might, then used all his strength to hurl the "C5 Explosive Spiral Wheel" down toward the densest center of the fleet below!

After the black sphere left my hand, it did not fall rapidly. Instead, it began to spin, and its rotation accelerated as it fell. The spiral patterns on the surface of the sphere lit up with a dark red light, stirring up the surrounding air and emitting a low, rumbling sound like the wailing of a monster.

Deidara stood on the bird's back, his robes fluttering in the strong wind. He spread his arms wide, facing the vast rainy sky and the tiny warships below, and shouted out his eternal pursuit.

"Art—is an explosion!!!"

"drink!!!"

"boom------------!!!!!!!!!"
