Chapter 192: The Thing That Boosts Chakra Tenfold
A vast expanse of white paper enveloped everything ahead.
Hiding behind a large tree, Shibuki stared, dumbfounded, at the scene before him. Especially when he saw Konan, floating in mid-air with two giant wings sprouting from her back, Shibuki couldn't help but swallow.
With a strength like that, Shibuki didn't have a single shred of desire to fight. After all, this was just one of their opponents. Shibuki turned his head, his gaze falling on Yuto.
The strength of this young man, who hadn't made a move, probably wasn't weak either—at least comparable to this woman's. If that was truly the case, and these two were now targeting Takigakure Village, then the village was probably in real danger.
Thinking this, Shibuki's gaze landed on the group of ninja trapped by Konan. These two groups were probably here for the "Hero Water." No matter what, the "Hero Water" could not fall into their hands.
With a vigilant expression on his face, Shibuki slowly backed away. When he saw that neither of the two groups seemed to have noticed his movements, Shibuki turned and quickly entered the dense forest nearby.
Elsewhere.
Rustle! Countless sheets of paper moved ceaselessly in the sky, making crisp sounds one after another.
Seeing the prison composed entirely of paper that completely enveloped them, Kirisame showed a look of panic.
"Damn it! Why would Angel-sama come to a place like this?" Kirisame's face was grim, his tone filled with displeasure.
"Use all your means to attack the front! If we can't break out, everyone will die here today!"
Kirisame turned his head, looked at his subordinates who also had panicked expressions on their faces, and roared.
Hearing Kirisame's roar, the other ninja were stunned for a moment, then simultaneously launched attacks towards a direction ahead. Various Water Release jutsu and explosive tags all blasted towards the front.
But after the attack, the wall made of paper in front of them remained completely intact before everyone's eyes.
Kirisame stared blankly at this scene, his body feeling as if all strength had been drained, and he slowly turned to look in Konan's direction, collapsing to his knees on the ground.
"Given up?"
Konan looked calmly at the kneeling Kirisame, her voice exceptionally flat.
Paper Rain!
In the next moment, countless sheets of paper shot rapidly from the two wings on Konan's back.
In an instant, bursts of blood mist exploded out, and with the exception of Kirisame, all the other ninja lost their lives.
Kirisame stared at his unharmed body in a daze. After a moment, he hurriedly looked up at Konan in mid-air.
"An...Angel-sama..."
Before Kirisame could finish, Konan spoke coldly:
"What is your purpose in coming to Takigakure Village?"
Kirisame shuddered all over and hastily said: "For Takigakure's 'Hero Water.'"
Hero Water?
Hearing this name, a look of confusion flashed in Konan's eyes. She had never heard of such a thing.
Thinking of this, Konan turned to look in Yuto's direction.
Yuto also had a curious expression on his face as he looked at the kneeling Kirisame on the ground:
"What is this 'Hero Water'? And how did you know about it?"
Suddenly hearing Yuto's voice, Kirisame couldn't help but freeze. Although he didn't know who Yuto was, he could tell from the fact that Angel-sama hadn't spoken that this person's status seemed quite high.
"The 'Hero Water' has the ability to instantly increase one's chakra tenfold."
"This information was told to us by Mizuki from Takigakure. Otherwise, we wouldn't have taken such a huge risk to invade Takigakure Village."
Kirisame swallowed and spoke respectfully.
"Something that can increase one's own chakra tenfold is truly tempting."
Yuto said with a faint smile on his face.
Just then, a whistling sound suddenly rang out. A white sheet of paper quickly slashed past the front of Kirisame's throat at an extreme speed.
Kirisame raised his hand and clutched his neck, his eyes wide as he looked in Konan's direction, wanting to say something, but his mouth seemed unable to open.
In the next moment, Kirisame fell straight to the ground.
Konan looked at everything with an indifferent expression. The wings on her back flapped slightly, and she returned to Yuto's side.
"Lord Yuto, what are your thoughts?"
Konan retracted the two wings on her back and looked at Yuto, speaking softly.
"Something that increases one's own chakra tenfold is indeed very tempting, but if Takigakure really had such a thing, then the village would probably have ceased to exist long ago. This so-called 'tenfold chakra' probably has a lot of water in it."
A playful look appeared in Yuto's eyes as he said with a light laugh.
Konan nodded. She thought the same way. Let alone a small village like Takigakure, if any of the Five Great Shinobi Villages possessed something that could increase their own power tenfold, they would probably be attacked by the other four.
Such a thing could allow a small shinobi village's strength to skyrocket to that of the Great Shinobi Villages in a short time.
"Something's wrong, Shibuki has escaped."
Suddenly, Konan's expression changed slightly. Only then did she realize that Shibuki had secretly slipped away at some point. Without Shibuki to lead them, it was unknown how long it would take to find the entrance to Takigakure Village amidst this series of waterfalls.
"Although Ranmaru is not here, there are other methods."
Yuto chuckled lightly, tapped his finger on the Isobu on his shoulder.
Feeling Yuto's movement, Isobu's little head poked out from its shell, then looked in a certain direction and spoke respectfully:
"Lord Yuto, it's in that direction."
Hearing Isobu on Yuto's shoulder speak, Konan couldn't help but freeze. Tailed Beasts could be used like this?
Following the direction Isobu indicated, Yuto turned and walked that way.
An expression of confusion on her face, Konan hurriedly followed.
The waterfall streams, composed of waterfalls of all sizes, not only create a special environment but can also hide many things. Unless it's the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan or Ranmaru's Red Eyes, it would probably be extremely difficult to find the hidden entrance to Takigakure Village within the waterfalls. After all, no matter how much noise the village makes, it would probably be masked by the sound of the waterfalls outside.
However, for Takigakure Village, this wasn't necessarily a good thing sometimes.
Through a special entrance in the waterfalls, Shibuki walked into the Takigakure Village hidden behind them.
Just as he entered the village, Shibuki suddenly felt a premonition of doom.
