Chapter 795: At This Moment, Just Like That Time!
Hyuga Tsukimi!
With her Reincarnation Eye and Great Tree Clan Bloodline, she could naturally sense the presence of the Megalithic Reincarnation Eye.
Under her leadership, the team moved swiftly.
However, as they advanced, they were besieged by puppets within the city as if they were invaders.
The true Ninja World was vastly different from the plot Tang Ping knew.
Fortunately, he had long understood that the plot could only be used as a reference; otherwise, his body might have been cold for who knows how long.
Of course, having suffered a loss earlier, Tang Ping naturally wouldn't leave things to chance.
One by one, Sealing Jutsu traps were set up.
If Kurozetsu was following behind, he would surely not get off easily.
However, what was puzzling was that the enemy didn't appear, and it was unclear whether they weren't there or had already found the Megalithic Reincarnation Eye.
"Who!"
Tang Ping suddenly looked towards the side.
Because Mino had sensed something amiss over there.
"As expected of the renowned Purifying Flame, to be able to detect my presence!"
A figure with a spiral-patterned mask and a blood-red Sharingan appeared amidst the warping air.
Byakugan Wolf, Kakuzu!
He hadn't expected the enemy to appear here.
Clearly, he had his eyes on the Moon base as well.
This was definitely not in the original plot.
But now, the plot had been thoroughly messed up by Tang Ping, and with no place of his own, it wasn't impossible for the Byakugan Wolf to set his sights on the Moon.
Kurozetsu!
Everything was part of Kurozetsu's scheme.
The enemy had been focusing on Hyuga Tsukimi alone, but upon seeing Tang Ping's group arrive, he realized he couldn't handle them with his strength and thus notified the Byakugan Wolf.
However, he hadn't expected Mino's spatial talent to be so exceptional that he could sense his presence.
The reason to convince the Byakugan Wolf must have been to use the Moon as a base.
Although Kurozetsu knew about the Great Tree Clan on the Moon, he was unaware of the Megalithic Reincarnation Eye, so it couldn't have been the Megalithic Reincarnation Eye that tempted the Byakugan Wolf.
"Who do you think I am? It's Akatsuki!"
Tang Ping scoffed.
His alter ego had dealt with them a few times, but his true self had never interacted with them, so he couldn't show too much familiarity.
Of course, he could gather basic information.
After all, if the Blazing Sun Country had dealings with the Shell Organization, it was perfectly normal to learn some information about Kurozetsu and the Byakugan Wolf from them.
"This is our Akatsuki base. If you don't leave, don't blame us for being impolite!"
Kakuzu prepared to use the tiger's skin to make a flag.
For the Blazing Sun Country, a single Akatsuki member might not be a threat, but the entire Akatsuki would be incredibly troublesome.
After all, with every member starting at the Shadow Rank, who wouldn't be afraid if they decided to cause trouble?
"Is that so?" Tang Ping muttered to himself. As a smile appeared on his face beneath the mask, he suddenly said, "But I refuse. The thing I, Uchiha Tohei, love to do the most is to say 'no' to those who think too highly of themselves!"
Others might not know, but he certainly did—this Moon base, how could Kurozetsu not have told Nagato about it?
Even if Nagato knew, Tang Ping wasn't planning to give it up.
The Moon base was too important.
Aside from its practical value, the mere existence of the Megalithic Reincarnation Eye dictated that Tang Ping must occupy it.
Not to mention, this place was also connected to 'Kaguya omikami'.
There was no way he could let it go.
If they really angered him, he would unleash his full power and blow up the Moon right before their eyes.
No, wait!
Tang Ping suddenly realized this might be Kurozetsu's true target.
Saving 'Mother' Kaguya omikami had always been his goal, and he had been working towards it for over a thousand years.
If they really blew up the Moon today, the enemy would surely scream in rage.
With this thought, Tang Ping suppressed the idea of using the Star-Shattering Spear.
This technique could truly 'shatter stars'!
'Damn you, Uchiha Tohei!'
The Byakugan Wolf, Kakuzu, cursed inwardly.
He hadn't expected that even when he brought up Akatsuki, the enemy showed no fear.
Since he couldn't scare them off with Akatsuki's name, it was time to rely on their own abilities.
"As an Uchiha, how dare you defy Uchiha Sasuke, you brat!"
Kakuzu shouted, sounding like the real Uchiha Sasuke.
Upon hearing this, Tang Ping's expression became complex, and he looked at the masked Kakuzu with pity.
"Brother, it's one thing to deceive others, but don't deceive yourself!"
You're taking advantage of Sasuke's reputation, thinking he'll never crawl out of his grave to strangle you, right?
But according to the original plot, he really did crawl out.
How pitiful!
All the arrogance you're displaying now, you'll have to pay for it later.
"What's with that look?"
Deidara frowned and asked.
He could tell there was pity in Tohei's eyes, but he didn't understand what there was to pity.
"How long has it been since you last went online... Haven't you kept up with the Ninja World? Don't you know I'm not an Uchiha?"
Tohei pointed out the truth.
I just have the surname Uchiha, but that doesn't mean I'm an Uchiha.
"This..."
Deidara instantly thought of this.
When he was younger, he wasn't aware of these details and thought the other was a 'Disgrace to the Uchiha,' looking down on him everywhere.
But who would've known that after graduation, the other would rise like a meteor.
The brilliance was so dazzling that it even made people overlook the fact that his surname was changed, so he didn't think of this at first.
"Moreover, even if it's Senju Hashirama, I've defeated him before. What right do you have, as Hashirama's defeated subordinate, to threaten me?"
Tohei calmly struck back at him.
Yes, setting aside whether you're Uchiha Madara or not, even if you were, I've defeated Senju Hashirama (in the End Valley battle and the Chuunin Exams battle, where I used the Akatsuki disguise to defeat him). How much more so you.
As for why Tohei chose to engage in verbal sparring?
It was naturally because Hyuga Tsukimi, who had been by his side, had disappeared without him noticing.
His strategy of holding off the Byakugan Wolf alone to buy time for the other side was not bad...?
Suddenly, Tohei thought of something.
Kurozetsu?
After the Byakugan Wolf appeared, he subconsciously placed him in Kakuzu's Kamui space or surroundings.
But even until now, the other party hasn't shown up, clearly indicating that they're not there, and if they're not here, it proves that they're like Hyuga Tsukimi, going to find the Megalithic Reincarnation Eye.
Boom!!
A huge explosion sounded from the underground of this floating city.
Whoosh!
Two kunai flew towards Kakuzu, but they passed right through his body.
"This kind of attack is useless against me, kid!"
Kakuzu finished his display of arrogance with Kamui, then sensed something amiss behind him.
"Flying Thunder God: Second Stage!"
Mino's figure appeared behind him, her left hand catching the kunai, and her right hand slammed down with a Rasengan.
The familiar pain and posture flashed through Kakuzu's mind, reminding him of the scenes where he fought with his teacher during the Nine-Tails Night.
At this moment, it was just like then.
Bang!
Kakuzu was knocked to the ground by the Rasengan, and even the stones were sent flying.
Several vines emerged from the underground around them, piercing towards Mino like poisonous snakes.
Whoosh!
Mino vanished from her original spot at the critical moment and reappeared behind Tohei, with a Flying Thunder God kunai under her feet, which she controlled with ease.
Mastery!
As 'Great Wind,' she could now not only freely use the second stage of the Flying Thunder God, but she could even play with the Lightning Guidance of the Flying Thunder God.
Before, her chakra and age were her weaknesses.
But as she grew older and exchanged her contributions for resources that helped with chakra growth, these weaknesses were being made up for.
Even the S-rank Wind Style: Spiral Hand Blade, she had begun to master.
Note that Mino isn't like Naruto, who needed Shadow Clones even for making dumplings.
While the lack of the Nine-Tails resulted in weaknesses in chakra and defense, it also meant she had maxed out in chakra control.
For Naruto, using Wind Style: Spiral Hand Blade required Sage Mode to avoid injury, but that doesn't mean Mino would be the same.
With Tohei's guidance and her learning ability inherited from Namikaze Minato, she successfully mastered this technique, though it required time to cast and couldn't be used instantly like the Rasengan.
It was precisely because of Mino's growth that she received the same treatment as Quan.
Being able to train alongside Tohei!
This was already a recognition of her strength.
Starting at the Shadow Rank!
Combined with the Flying Thunder God, her combat power could be considered that of a strong Kage, and even if she couldn't win, she would never lose.
Just as Mino was beating up the Byakugan Wolf, on the other side, the fight for the Megalithic Reincarnation Eye also began.
