Before Inuzukazu could reply, Shiranui Kusama saw that he was being ignored, and he sneered: "Forgot? I just remember that I was sleeping a second ago, and then I was here in the blink of an eye."
On the other side, Inuzuka Takashi used his family's secret technique to make his fingernails longer and sharper, like sharp claws.
Then, she suddenly swung her claws and scraped off a large piece of bark from the big tree next to her, which she used as a cover.
Hearing Akimichi Tingza's question, she frowned and thought for a while, then said in an uncertain tone: "It's a bit strange... When I woke up just now, I felt like I had been in a daze for a long time."
After saying this, Inuzuka Takashi walked out from behind the tree wearing a simple "skirt" and stood not far from Shiranui Kusama and Akimichi Choza.
"Besides this, there seems to be something very important that I seem to have forgotten."
"what is it then?"
As Inuzukazuma spoke, her brows frowned more and more unknowingly, as if there was some difficult problem that she couldn't figure out no matter how hard she thought about it.
The ninjas of the Inuzuka clan generally have a keen sense of smell and strong intuition. As the most outstanding ninja of the younger generation of the Inuzuka clan, Inuzuka Kuma's ability is far beyond that of ordinary Inuzuka clan members.
With its powerful intuition, Inuzuka Claws can detect many things that ordinary people cannot detect.
Just like now, she has become acutely aware that Shiranui Kusama and Akimichi Tingza are just like her, ignorant of the current situation.
Therefore, she didn't worry too much about the various abnormalities in her body, but focused more on the memories in her mind.
Just because her intuition told her: the latter is far more important than the former.
"Have you forgotten something important...?" Hearing this, Akimichi Tingza also fell into deep thought.
Shiranui Kusama saw that both of his companions were silent and turned a blind eye to the sudden change in the environment. He couldn't help but secretly sigh at their arrogance.
After thinking about it, Shiranui Kusama calmed down and recalled what happened before.
But the more he recalled, the more he discovered something was wrong. Subconsciously, he widened his eyes and blurted out: "Hey! I said..."
"Where is the jounin captain of our team?"
"Captain Jonin?" A strong look of confusion appeared on Inuzukazuma's face, accompanied by deep doubts:
"Our team...hasn't there always been a Jonin captain?"
Unconsciously, Shiranui Kusama and Akimichi Tingza looked at each other and said at the same time: "How is this possible?"
"I said..." Shiranui Kusama's body trembled slightly, and his hands couldn't help but tremble as he patted Akimichi Choza's shoulder.
"Who can tell me what is going on?"
"I don't know either." Akimichi Tingzao said with a gloomy face and a stiff tone: "But I can be sure that there is definitely something wrong with my memory."
After saying that, Akimichi Choza looked at Inuzuka Inuzuka and asked in a deep voice: "Inuzuka, is there any smell left here? I think you should be able to understand what I am referring to."
"Hmm." Inuzukazuma nodded slightly, closed his eyes and twitched his nose slightly. After a while, he opened his eyes and said:
"There was a slightly familiar smell. If I remember correctly, this smell left a deep impression on me at the time."
"That person is..." At this point, a trace of hesitation flashed across Inuzukazuma's face, as if he was considering whether to spit out that name.
And it was this moment of hesitation that made her suddenly notice something she had forgotten before: "By the way, have you seen my black pill?"
"There is clearly a lingering smell of black pills here!"
…
As morning gradually approaches, the light from the sky begins to bloom.
Walking to the place where Kato Dan was attacked for the first time, that is, the big tree that Kato Dan's back was squeezed into, Lei Luo observed attentively and did not speak for a long time.
'Not only the memory information level, but also the physical traces have been erased?'
The trunk of the big tree in front of me is intact, and the bark on the surface is not damaged at all. It seems that it has not been impacted by the outside at all, let alone an object embedded in it.
Whether it was the overall shape of this big tree, the thickness of the trunk, or the approximate number of leaves above it, Lei Luo could rely on his strong memory to ensure that he remembered it correctly.
Since the tree trunk that was supposed to be destroyed has returned to its original state, and everything observed before is true.
Then...there can only be one result left.
At this moment, Lei Luo was finally completely sure that Kato Dan was completely "erased" by him. From the timeline, Kato Dan's existence was completely deleted.
And this is not Lei Luo's original intention.
Quickly retrieving the memories of the fight with Kato Dan, Lei Luo searched carefully, not letting go of any detail, trying to find traces of using this "obliteration" technique.
Every picture seemed to be clearly visible, and every action seemed to have happened just now, but Lei Luo did not find any abnormality.
Only... when he merged with a part of the Hundred Demons created by Kato Dan at the cost of soul splitting, Lei Luo was close to losing consciousness for a few seconds and was unable to feel every subtle change in the outside world in real time.
Was the "obliteration" initiated at that time?
The power of time, the Hundred Ghosts, and his own soul were the only things that were working at that time. Lei Luo couldn't tell what was going on, and he couldn't figure out why he deleted Kato inexplicably.
But one thing is clear to Lei Luo.
"Kato Dan... because of my desire, you suffered the most painful death. I..."
Lei Luo withdrew his gaze towards the big tree, slowly turned around, and said to himself: "I didn't want to kill you, but the result is so regrettable. I'm really... sorry."
Although he failed to obtain the Spiritualization Technique, and Baigui Yexing almost killed him, Lei Luo still did not feel any frustration of not achieving his goal, or the joy of surviving by chance.
At this moment, what emerged in his mind was only unconcealable shame and traces of apology.
After all, although Kato Dan planned to die with him, the Hundred Demons left behind by the other party were "resources" that could strengthen Lei Luo's soul, and it was impossible for him not to find time to recycle them in the future.
In other words, in terms of results alone, Kato Dan provided him with "resources", and what was his "return"? Completely obliterating the opponent.
Strictly speaking, Kato was not an enemy of Lei Luo, and there was no hatred between the two parties at all, so he could not accept this bloody "resource" with dignity and peace of mind.
Even though Kato Zetsu used Hyakuki Yakō, a technique that wanted to kill Lei Luo, Lei Luo repeatedly reviewed the cause, process, and results of this incident, and still felt that Kato Zetsu should not have ended up like this.
In any case, all traces in this world have been eliminated, and no one can remember that he existed. This approach is really too much, and has gone beyond the scope of "counterattack" in the normal sense.
It's just that at this point, Lei Luo has no clue at all about the "obliterate" move. He doesn't even know how to use it again, let alone how to reverse it all.
Kato Dan has no hair left, and Lei Luo can go back in time, but there is nothing he can do about non-existent objects.
