Chapter 1028: The Plot Thickens!
Chapter 1028: The Plot Thickens!
Kongsha Huihu, the Bloodline Limit that can easily annihilate everything, is the ultimate ace up Hyuga Aikotsuki's sleeve.
During the previous battle, even the Sage of Six Paths dared not directly confront the attack from Mikoto, showcasing its immense power.
However, since acquiring Kongsha Huihu, Aikotsuki has never used it in combat, and one could say it's been like a decade of sharpening a sword.
Now, as she reveals her trump cards, including the Reincarnate Eye Chakra Mode, the Gigantic Reincarnate Eye, and the Luminous Sword, it's not just about gaining the upper hand but also dispelling the Sage of Six Paths' vigilance.
After all, facing an opponent who has seen all her cards, the Sage of Six Paths can't possibly maintain constant vigilance.
One can only say that her tactical mind is devious.
With her full power unleashed, Aikotsuki demonstrates a terrifying combat prowess, even engaging the Sage of Six Paths head-on without faltering.
Despite the Sage's less-than-optimal condition, they are still a Six Paths-level entity and one of the strongest in their league.
Yet, even so, Aikotsuki manages to hold her ground, shocking countless onlookers.
Especially the Ryounin gathered at the periphery.
"How is this possible!"
"So, she's this strong?"
"No wonder she's from the 404 Squad!"
"Incredible!"
...
Uzumaki Budou, Yakura, Sungui Me, Hina, Meiko, and others exclaim in unison.
They are well aware of Aikotsuki's strength, and there's no room for doubt.
With Tang Ping's assistance, even a small favor can be enough to nurture a formidable warrior.
Nowadays, not only is he known as the 'Storm of Fury,' but he is also considered the pinnacle of physical combat in the Ninja World, with his 'Hao Tian Quan' stunning countless individuals.
This goes to show how much stronger one can become with Tang Ping's assistance.
Receiving so many benefits, there's nothing wrong with being a loyal dog.
Others might want to be one, but they don't have the qualifications yet.
Her current combat prowess is on par with the Six Paths level.
As she doesn't rely solely on the Chakra system, she isn't countered by the Sage of Six Paths, and thus, her performance is naturally more impressive.
"Golden Wheel Reincarnate Burst!"
Aikotsuki seizes the opportunity and absorbs the remaining eight Sonneityama into her hand.
A golden glow erupts from her palm! With the Gigantic Reincarnate Eye's empowerment, this sword can cleave the moon in half.
Indeed, its destructive power is awe-inspiring.
The biggest drawback of this technique is its 'accuracy.'
The target isn't a stationary object, and they won't stand idly by as you attack. Moreover, this move doesn't come with a lock-on skill, making it challenging to hit a powerful opponent.
But Aikotsuki wouldn't dare use it without a plan.
Buzz!
The dazzling golden luminous sword surges towards the sky, initially spanning several kilometers before rapidly shrinking.
This isn't a decrease in power but an increase in control.
Similar to the concentrated power of Shinoken's fist, the smaller the attack range, the more concentrated the force.
When Aikotsuki first obtained the Reincarnate Eye, she didn't even have the qualifications to use the Golden Wheel Reincarnate Burst. Now, not only can she combine the power of eight Sonneityama, but she can also control its strength, indicating her tremendous growth.
The kilometer-long luminous sword, as solid as reality, illuminates the night sky. Fortunately, the Pure Land above them exists between reality and illusion; otherwise, it would have been pierced long ago.
The Sage of Six Paths isn't concerned about this sword.
Although its power has reached the Six Paths level, it lacks the lock-on or guaranteed hit effects. Evading it is not an issue for him, and this attack will consume most of Aikotsuki's strength.
However, this moment of relaxation is fleeting. The next second, his expression changes drastically, and he voluntarily charges towards the Golden Wheel Reincarnate Burst.
There's only one reason for this.
The target of the attack is problematic!
Aikotsuki's all-out strike isn't aimed at the Sage of Six Paths but at the giant stone sphere floating several hundred meters away in the sky.
Mikoto! Her attack is meant to liberate the Mikoto sealed within the Chibaku Tensei.
Since attacking the Sage of the Six Paths directly is futile, the best course of action is to provide a compelling reason for him to take action.
And there's no better reason than Mikoto herself.
Although the Chibaku Tensei's seal is incredibly sturdy, its effectiveness depends on the circumstances.
Currently, the moon has not yet reached the center of the moon, and it has not fully merged with the entire moon.
Ordinary attacks indeed cannot shake its foundation.
The issue lies with Hyuga Aikotsuki's strike, which is far from ordinary.
The attack possesses Six Paths-level destructive power!
It is entirely capable of causing minor damage to the seal.
Once a gap appears in the seal, the Great Hyuga Tsukuyomi inside will undoubtedly break free from her confinement.
Having just been sealed, her consciousness has not yet fallen into slumber.
It can be said that Aikotsuki's sword strike directly aimed at the Sage's vital point, leaving him no choice but to take action.
The Sage of the Six Paths, floating in mid-air above the stone sphere, gazed at the descending golden luminous sword.
Hum! A layer of invisible force field appeared before the golden blade's edge.
Repulsion force!
For the Sage of the Six Paths, this was as instinctive as breathing, and with a mere gesture, he unleashed a terrifying power.
The most ⊥new⊥small⊥say⊥in⊥Six⊥9⊥⊥book⊥⊥well⊥⊥head⊥hair!
Rip!
Facing the invisible repulsion wall, the golden blade swiftly tore through it.
After all, this was Aikotsuki's full-power strike, enhanced not only by the power of the Reincarnate Eye but also by the Gigantic Reincarnate Eye, making its might extraordinary.
Swish, swish!
Layer upon layer of black shields unfolded before the Sage of the Six Paths.
It was Yin-Yang Release!
Although the battle against Mikoto had depleted his reserves, the Sage of the Six Paths could still utilize Yin-Yang Release for defense.
And Yin-Yang Release was one of the hallmarks of the Six Paths level.
The black rod, for instance, was a product of Yin-Yang Release.
When one's mastery of Yin-Yang Release reaches a certain level, they can 'hand-mold' the Sonneityama.
Aikotsuki's ability to use the Sonneityama stems from the Reincarnate Eye's innate ability, not hand-molding, so even with the Sonneityama, she operates at the Ultra Shadow level rather than the Six Paths level.
If it were chakra, it would be impossible to break through the Yin-Yang Release defense, no matter the quantity.
But the golden wheel reincarnation blast's luminous sword is entirely capable of tearing through the sky and slicing through the earth, and it is also the Sonneityama's activation, not pure chakra, so it won't be countered by the element.
Even with an abundance of chakra, it would be impossible to breach the Yin-Yang Release defense.
The Yin-Yang Release defense was also sliced open, but the Sage of the Six Paths was not surprised. He stretched out his palms.
"Sealing Absorption!"
He directly activated this Rinnegan ability.
However, the effect of his bride, and the Sage of the Six Paths, was vastly different from Pain's. It was as if his entire being had transformed into a black hole, slowly swallowing the descending golden luminous sword.
In the end, the sword that could cleave the moon was blocked by the Sage of the Six Paths.
Nevertheless, this sword strike was not without its accomplishments.
Not only did it leave the Sage of the Six Paths with additional injuries, but it also created a new wound.
Starting from his shoulder and extending to his waist, it seemed as if the strike aimed to split him in two.
This further demonstrated the sheer power of Aikotsuki's full-force attack.
"That was close!"
After blocking the strike, the Sage of the Six Paths turned to glance at the floating stone sphere beneath his feet.
The power of this sword strike was too great; if it had hit its target, the seal would have undoubtedly been compromised, leading to complications.
Fortunately, such a situation was averted.
Furthermore, after executing this strike, the opponent's combat prowess was significantly diminished, ensuring victory.
Unfortunately, before the Sage of the Six Paths could finish his exclamation, his keen intuition frantically warned him, prompting an instinctive dodge.
Rip!
A grayish-black bone spear, as thick as an egg and half a meter long, grazed past him, leaving a finger-width bloodstain on his waist.
Had his reflexes not been quick enough, that strike would have pierced his heart.
Although losing his heart doesn't necessarily mean death for Hatake, it would undoubtedly result in severe injury.
Boom! The repulsion force erupted with terrifying force, sending nearby enemies flying.
If not for the opponent's use of repulsion force to counter, they might have been crushed into meat paste.
Even without becoming meat paste, their current situation was undoubtedly unpleasant.
The one who had just executed that strike was undoubtedly Aikotsuki.
Only her unique 'presence' control allowed her to approach silently and attack from such close range.
Although she was injured by the repulsion force, a smile graced her face.
Her objective had been achieved.
