Turning his head abruptly, Hiruko found that at some unknown time, a strange Otsutsuki carrying a chakra fishing rod had appeared behind him and was sizing him up with interest.
He was both surprised and suspicious: "Damn it, when did you appear?"
Urashiki, carrying the chakra fishing rod, smiled: "I didn't expect you lowly natives to actually develop such a ritual. It seems our Otsutsuki technology has been leaked!"
"It's an Otsutsuki!"
"Never seen him before, was he hiding in the shinobi world?"
"Damn it, why at this time!"
Hearing Urashiki Otsutsuki's words, the surroundings immediately became noisy. Whether it was the researchers participating in the plan or the guards maintaining the order of the ritual, all of them looked like they were facing a great enemy.
Amado's gaze sharpened.
Although like the others, he didn't know Urashiki's identity, connecting it with Shinji repeatedly asking him about methods to contact other Otsutsuki, he guessed that this strange Otsutsuki was very likely lured to the shinobi world by Shinji using some means.
On the field.
Hiruko quickly suppressed his surprise, and a sinister smile gradually appeared on his gloomy face: "Just worrying that no one could help me test the results of the ritual. Since you delivered yourself to my door, then I choose you! With your identity as an Otsutsuki, you shouldn't be killed by me instantly, hehehe!"
Urashiki was stunned for a moment, then also laughed: "A mere lowly creature actually wants to hunt me? Heh, interesting!"
Hiruko's center of gravity slowly sank: "Lowly creature!? Hmph, wait until I catch you, I will research you, this so-called high-level creature, thoroughly on the operating table!"
Whoosh!
Before his voice faded, Hiruko, whose body was leaning down, sprang forward, pouncing like an arrow leaving the bow towards Urashiki who was close at hand.
"So fast!"
Urashiki was startled. The Byakugan in his eye sockets instantly turned into a pair of blue Rinnegan, and then his body transformed into countless paper cranes.
Undoubtedly, Urashiki activated the 'Origami Crane Body Flicker'.
This dojutsu is not an ordinary Body Flicker Technique, but a 'Space-Time Dojutsu' involving time, capable of dodging almost any attack perceived by Urashiki.
After dodging Hiruko's offensive, Urashiki flashed to a not-too-distant place, then violently swung the fishing rod in his hand towards Hiruko.
Whoosh...
Accompanied by the sound of breaking wind, the red fishing line pulled the fishhook at the end flying towards Hiruko.
Hiruko immediately formed hand seals to activate 'Swift Release', dodging the flying fishhook with a Body Flicker, a smile on his lips: "Only this level..."
Before he finished speaking, the expression on his face froze.
He clearly dodged Urashiki's fishhook just now, but he found that the chakra inside his body was suddenly reduced by a large chunk.
Urashiki, retrieving the fishhook, licked his lips: "Tsk tsk, what delicious chakra!"
"You're courting death!"
Enraged, Hiruko started forming hand seals again, then spread his arms, activating his strongest attack ninjutsu, Storm Release Secret Technique 'Storm Demon Dragon'!
In an instant, dark clouds covered the sky, lightning flashed, as if a thunder dragon was shuttling through the clouds.
Even for the previous Hiruko, the 'Storm Demon Dragon' activated with full power was an S-rank ninjutsu capable of changing the weather, let alone him now who had just finished the ritual, with an aura reaching the 'Six Paths Level'. So as the 'Storm Demon Dragon' was activated, the entire world dimmed.
Amado was greatly shocked and hurriedly shouted to the assistant beside him: "Quickly arrange for everyone to retreat!"
The researchers then woke up as if from a dream, scrambling one after another to escape the range of Hiruko's 'Storm Demon Dragon'. Because Hiruko had gone crazy; the 'Storm Demon Dragon' he activated directly covered the entire mountain peak, including the observation area.
On the field.
...
Hiruko simply didn't care about his colleagues in the observation area. He stared fixedly at Urashiki: "You Otsutsuki are just slightly stronger creatures, watch how I trample you fiercely under my feet! Go, Storm Demon Dragon!"
Rumble...
Following Hiruko's roar, the thunder dragon hidden in the dark clouds seemed to roar along, countless lightning bolts bombarding Urashiki on the ground as if they cost nothing.
"Hmph!"
Urashiki snorted lightly, then waved the chakra fishing rod above his head.
With just this simple wave, all falling lightning was absorbed by the fishing rod, finally turning into balls of light points, sucked into the fishing basket hanging at Urashiki's waist.
Hiruko's expression changed: "How is this possible!?"
Not only him, the researchers fleeing in panic all around also stopped their steps one after another. They never expected this strange Otsutsuki to absorb Hiruko's Storm Release Secret Technique just by waving the fishing rod in his hand.
Appreciating the astonishment on Hiruko's face, Urashiki took out the chakra light ball from the fishing basket, playing with it while saying: "You are indeed the strongest lowly creature I've ever seen, but even the strongest is still a lowly creature!"
Having said that, he smiled and tossed the light ball.
Rumble...
In an instant, the falling lightning previously absorbed by Urashiki's chakra fishing rod was released instantly, bombarding Hiruko not far away.
"This!?"
Hiruko's eyes widened.
Before he could react, his whole person was swallowed by the falling lightning.
Not only Hiruko, the entire ritual site, including the distant testing area, and even the entire mountain peak were attacked by falling lightning. Only Urashiki chuckled in the air, watching the researchers of the Research Institute below fleeing in embarrassment.
Soon, the falling lightning ended, revealing Hiruko's figure.
Hiruko, scorched black by the lightning, gasped for breath, looking viciously at Urashiki in the air. Just then, with a crack, cracks appeared on his body, as if something was trying to drill out from inside his body.
In the distance.
Although retreating, Amado was still paying attention to the battlefield.
Hiruko's condition was obviously wrong. Like the falling lightning just now, even Hiruko before the ritual should have been able to dodge some, not standing still foolishly and taking it all.
And seeing cracks appearing on Hiruko's body at this moment, with the 'Chimera buds' inside having a tendency to break out of the body, he knew Hiruko was finished.
On the other side, while directing everyone to retreat, Tsunade shouted to Orochimaru: "Orochimaru, aren't you going up to help?"
Orochimaru sneered: "What's the rush!"
Tsunade said unhappily: "That Otsutsuki and Hiruko are both lunatics. If let them continue fighting, many people will die here!"
Just as Orochimaru prepared to answer, a roar sounded not far away.
Orochimaru and Tsunade looked over together and saw another strange Otsutsuki attacking the retreating researchers, while Kabuto, Ranmaru, and Delta, who were responsible for guarding, had already gone up to meet him.
Tsunade and Orochimaru looked at each other in blank dismay: "There are two Otsutsuki?"
