Chapter 85: The Eighth Seal - You Call That a Reaper?

Chapter 85: The Eighth Seal - You Call That a Reaper?

The Reaper Death Seal is an incredibly powerful sealing technique originating from the Uzumaki clan. It involves sacrificing one's soul to summon the Reaper and form a contract. The Reaper then extracts the target's spirit, severs it with a sword, and se techniquely it devates target, soul, and sealed within its belly.

As a consequence, the user is also consumed by the Reaper upon the technique's completion, making it a suicidal move.

In essence, it's a self-destruct skill. Using it means certain death for the user, and the target's fate is uncertain.

While the technique is powerful, its effectiveness varies greatly. It was first used to seal the Nine-Tails, and then to seal Orochimaru's hands.

However, Luk believes this inconsistency is due to Kishimoto's early lack of a clear setting. Who would have thought the First Hokage, initially a minor character, would be strengthened to such an extent?

In retrospect, the second sealing of the First and Second Hokages is far more significant than the Nine-Tails, with Orochimaru's hands being just a minor addition.

Snake - Pig - Sheep - Horse -

Aizawa's face was resolute as he rapidly formed seals, forming his hands hands hands the Reaper's fate the same Reaper's fate the target's fate uncertain.

.

his choice, But this time, he seemed even worse than before. Once, he was hesitant and reluctant to sacrifice himself, but now, he only thought of escaping.

Worse still, Danzo's ambitions grew uncontrollably. He thought that Aizawa would surely die after, sacrifice after Hokage position would be Reaper - leaving the Hokage the Hok the the Reaper's fate the his Hokage vacant - the Hokage position vacant.

How despicable.

Even Danzo couldn't help but feel a twinge of self-loathing. He stopped his retreat, steadied his trembling hands, and drew a kunai.

Luk didn't stop Aizawa's suicidal technique. Instead, he watched the Reaper's shadow with interest. He was curious about the "Reaper" in the Naruto world.

"Kakashi, help me restrain me!"

Aizawa charged at Luk, his sharp and the, exhausted, he lacked the space, Exhausted, he lacked the confidence to restrain his opponent.

"Third Hokage!"

Yamato gritted his teeth, determined not to let Aizawa's sacrifice be in vain. Suppressing his grief, he formed seals, and multiple wooden tendrils shot out from his arms toward Luk.

"Wood Style: Great Forest Jutsu!"

The invisible and sharp wind easily sliced Yamato's wooden tendrils into countless pieces. Luk didn't dodge, allowing Aizawa to rush to him and press his hands against his body.

"Who are you...?"

Aizawa's expression was more, he didn't understand that Luk would willingly approach a suicidal technique. Even if he didn't know the Reaper Death Seal's effects, he should have been cautious.

Regardless, the situation had escalated to a point where it couldn't be stopped, and he couldn't miss this opportunity.

Otherwise, he would die in vain!

His hands, like a shadowy thing, penetrated Luk's body, penetrate Luk's body, and Aizawa made contact with Luk's soul.

At that moment, his consciousness was sucked in, and Aizawa felt his soul rising. The gap between heaven and earth became blurry, and he felt a faint mist in the space, several indistinct figures sat around a table, their hands moving in some action.

Aizawa tried to approach and see clearly, but no matter move how move, he couldn't get any closer.

The figures in the space seemed to notice his presence. They stopped their actions and turned their eyes toward Aizawa.

Boom!

Suddenly, Aizawa felt his soul about to explode, his soul trembling instinctically, almost ready to kneel. Before he could react, an irresistible force pushed him away, as if he were being thrown out of a trash can.

Aizawa regained consciousness, and he felt a weight in his hands. He smiled in relief. him smile, And he smiled in relief, feeling relieved that Luk's soul was incredibly and and,He felt a weight in his soul was incredibly resilient and stable, making Aizawa's attempt feel like Yamato trying to outdo the First Hokage in Wood Style.

Cold sweat broke the back of his neck, knowing that if this ended here, he would be a footnote in history as a character who committed suicide at the first sign of a strong enemy.

Aizawa grew more and more anxious, mustering all his strength to pull again!

Still, it didn't move!

Luk, on the other hand, glanced at the Reaper and clicked, tongue, "Is that what you call a Reaper?"

It's well-known that a Reaper's appearance is more its weaker's appearance is more and target Reaper than the Hokage's appearance is more important than its power. As long as it's contained, this ugly thing? He wouldn't even let it be the same.

The Reaper's ethereal shadow ignored Luk's comment. It seemed to have low intelligence, working only on instinct. instinct. Seeing that A Reaper Death Seal was unable to extract Luk's soul, the Reaper decided to cut him with the sword.

If it couldn't seal him, it could at least wound his soul!

Under Aizawa's control, the Reaper tightened its grip, pulled the sword from its mouth, and swung it at Luk.

Clang!

The Reaper looked confused at the two fingers, clamping its sword. Before it could understand how a human could touch a spirit, a powerful punch shattered half its its body shattered half its its Reaper's body the Reaper's Reaper the Hok the target the Reaper,

the sword shattered half of its ethereal body.

This blow seemed to wake the Shinigami from his rigid state. His body writhed rapidly, returning to its original form, though it was now a size smaller.

The Shinigami, realizing he had met his match, showed fear on his face. He decisively abandoned his soul reaping, not even taking the soul of Hiruzen Sarutobi, and was about to dissipate and flee.

But just as he was halfway through his escape, an irresistible suction force pulled him back.

"Ugh—Ugh—"

The Shinigami's mouth emitted a few sounds that might have been sobs, like an innocent girl encountering a bully. After a few futile struggles, his body was bundled up and pulled into Luk's hand.

The localized version of the Spirit Summoning Technique, known as the Spirit Manipulation Technique, retained its full power in the Naruto universe and even became more versatile due to the relatively lenient treatment of spirits.

"Hmm, what should I do with this thing?"

Eating a spirit directly might cause indigestion, and even if it were edible, he found it hard to bring himself to swallow it.

Luk was puzzled but then his eyes lit up when he saw the Moonlight on his waist. This Shinigami was a powerful spirit, and perhaps he could use it to create a Zanpakuto.

With the help of the Divine Mechanism and Ditto's analysis, Luk could study the Shinigami's structure and pass the design to Ditto. The creation of an interdimensional Zanpakuto was just around the corner!

Unlike Luk, who was relaxed and had the leisure to think about other things, Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others were in despair. They watched as the summoned Shinigami's shadow was first shattered by a punch and then balled up. Their hearts sank to the bottom.

They never imagined the Shinigami could be toyed with, and the Kage Bunshin no Jutsu that was meant to take the enemy down with them was easily neutralized. With their chakra almost depleted, there was no longer any hope of victory.

At that moment, several sparks cut through the rain-drenched night, striking the Divine Dance Armor, followed by a series of explosions.

"Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Flower Claw Red!"

The smoke cleared, revealing Luk unharmed, his interest slightly piqued.

Being able to use such a powerful Fire Release technique in a heavy rain showed considerable skill.

"Third Hokage, are you alright?!"

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was feeling hopeless, a voice pulled him out of his negative thoughts. Shisui's figure appeared through the rain, not far away.

Shisui, recognizing the dire situation, didn't hold back. Indigo bones sprouted from the ground, forming a massive figure that startled Daidou, who was seeing this technique for the first time.

Susanoo!

The ultimate defensive and offensive technique!

The "Gundam" in the "Gundam vs. Aliens" of the Naruto world!

Knowing the enemy's strength, Shisui didn't stop. This was a ninja who had easily defeated the Hokage and the heads of various clans and elite forces. A basic Susanoo wouldn't be enough to defeat him!

He increased the chakra flow to his Sharingan, and the bones grew flesh, completing the lower half, transforming into a massive warrior.

Susanoo, Stage 2!

Next, the warrior grew chest armor, and a unique spiral sword appeared in his hand, enhancing his aura even further.

Susanoo, Stage 3!

"That's enough, invader!"

Shisui's body appeared at the center of the warrior, his chakra rapidly depleting. Stage 3 Susanoo was a heavy burden, and he knew he couldn't maintain it for long. He charged forward, the massive spiral sword striking Luk.

Though it appeared slow in the anime, the real Susanoo was astonishingly fast, and its large size increased the hit rate.

"You're the second person to say that to me tonight."

Luk crossed his arms, watching the attack with a calm expression.

Crack—

A powerful blast of energy blew everything around away, and the already battered ground suffered another blow. In the intense collision, the Divine Dance Armor cracked for the first time.

"Susanoo, not bad."

Luk didn't hesitate to give praise.

In terms of attack power, it was only slightly inferior to the Five Elements Great Bullet Technique, which he wasn't affected by. It also had excellent defense and agility, though its endurance was lacking. However, few enemies could last long enough to see it through.

Seeing that direct attacks were ineffective, Shisui furrowed his brow. The spiral sword began to spin, adding a "drill" attribute to its already formidable killing power.

"Then try this!"

The drill-like sword pierced the Divine Dance Armor, though it didn't fully destroy it, it gradually drilled deeper.

Daidou, seeing an opportunity, quickly formed hand seals.

"Wood Release: Four Pillar Cage!"

"Wood Release: Thorn Death Technique!"

Three thick wooden walls rose, surrounding Luk, leaving only the side where Shisui was attacking. At the same time, vine-like wood attacked Luk.

With his teammate's support, Shisui's spirits lifted. He increased the chakra flow to his Sharingan, and the spiral sword's rotation speed increased. With a "bang," the Divine Dance Armor shattered.

The drill-like sword, still moving, was about to pierce Luk's body. Lightning surged in his hand, and a golden glow covered his palm. His seemingly soft hand clenched into a fist and struck the spinning spiral sword.

At the moment of impact, the spiral sword shattered in Shisui's disbelieving eyes.

"A partial Susanoo is just a toy in front of me."

Luk explained calmly, then brought his right hand together and waved it. The entangled vines disintegrated, and with a light stomp, the ground trembled, shattering the wooden walls.

The massive Susanoo was shattered by the second punch, and Shisui barely managed to escape. He then saw Daidou being slapped into the ground and grabbed, thrown at the heavily injured Danzo at high speed.

Danzo, weakened by his injuries and unable to resist, was hit by the impact. Hiruzen Sarutobi, struggling to support himself, rushed forward to block.

The force carried him into Danzo, and the three of them crashed through a wall, causing a cloud of dust.

Feeling the addition of three high-quality entries to his compendium, Luk approached Shisui with a smile.

These eyes are quite good too.
