From the cross consisting of nine space doors that appeared behind Toneri, four magical creatures wearing white masks and wrapped in white robes flew out.
It is the face beasts summoned through Su Po's Four Faces, which respectively represent the blue dragon, white tiger, red bird, and Xuanwu.
Kakuzu had already seen Toneri use Suba Sanmenha last time, but he didn't expect that there would be another one this time, which made him slightly surprised.
But this time, these face-faced beasts were on his side.
Black threads surged wildly, as if they were alive, and emerged from his body. With the four masks on his back, they transformed into four very ugly black thread creatures, each of which represented his
A heart also represents an attribute.
And these heart masks of his don't require seals to perform ninjutsu.
The four masked beasts, plus the four hearts of Kakuzu, are simply an army of masks!
Kakuzu's heart acts as a long-range artillery suppressor, while Toneri's Masked Beast acts as a containment at close range.
After releasing a tailed beast jade, in the form of three tails, it was already a little exhausted. If the power of the five tails was not further released, it would definitely not be able to withstand such an indiscriminate bombardment.
Kakuzu glanced at Toneri, who had an indifferent expression, and said, "Didn't it say that Wood Release can suppress tailed beasts?"
He knew that Toneri could use Wood Release, and he was almost frightened last time.
But then he went back and thought about it carefully, it seems that Toneri's Wood Release is not very strong?
He was just scared by the person who once left a shadow in his heart. He was scared of himself. Even if someone could really use Wood Release, they would not be as powerful as Senju Hashirama.
This has indeed become a stain in his heart, but it seems that there is no chance to erase it.
Toneri rolled his eyes at him: "If I had such a strong wooden escape, why would I still play house here? What kind of game is this? Wouldn't it be bad to just overwhelm the entire ninja world?"
He was so unabashedly revealing that he was not strong in Mudun that Kakuzu was stunned.
However, the more calm Toneri was, the deeper Kakuzu's fear of him became.
This shows that he no longer needs Mu Dun to scare himself, he already has the ability and confidence to face himself in his prime state.
He restrained his insignificant temptation and returned his attention to the Five-Tailed Jinchuuriki Han.
I don't know whether it was Han who had the last bit of willpower to suppress the five tails and prevent them from fully manifesting, or whether it was because after releasing a tailed beast jade, the fourth tail that was about to emerge miraculously returned.
"Seize the opportunity, now!"
Jiaodu let out a low drink.
After a period of fierce fighting, the black thread on his heart crossed the ground and tightly wrapped around the three-tailed Han.
"Roar!!!"
As if he sensed something unusual, Han's last will to resist was overwhelmed by the five tails. Chakra stirred behind him, and he saw that the fourth tail was about to extend.
At this time, Shiren's four-faced beast also seized the opportunity. Xuanwu fell from the sky and fell on it, while the other three bit its three tails.
Completely restricting its movements.
Sizzling...
A large amount of thunder and lightning shot out from Toneri's body, his speed increased to the extreme, and he appeared beside it in a flash.
Raising his right hand, he saw that his hand turned into a knife shape, wrapped in a thick layer of light blue tailed beast chakra.
"drink--"
Gather all your strength, like swinging a knife, from top to bottom.
"Roar!!! Roar!!!"
I don’t know whether it was under the control of Gui Han or the Five Tails at this time. In short, he roared because the three chakra tails that originally extended from his back were all cut off!
Although this is just a simulation of chakra, it is just like a real tail. After the root is cut off, it falls to the ground and will disappear soon.
But all Toneri needed was this chakra. He immediately took out a scroll, quickly formed seals with his hands, and activated the sealing technique to seal the chakra formed by the three tails.
After doing all this, Shiren immediately retreated because he could sense that a certain creature was really angered by him this time.
"Roar!!!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!..
Kakuzu's black threads broke one by one, and the four-faced beasts were somewhat unable to suppress it. Where Toneri had originally cut off, three tails reappeared, and the fourth tail was also pulled out at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"I'm going to go on a rampage! Get out quickly!"
Sheren was so frightened that his face turned pale.
He left the Five-Tails who was about to go berserk as quickly as possible, and ran past Kakuzu without stopping: "What are you still hesitating about? Run! Have you really done this to the Five-Tails?"
Kakuzu: "..."
He was speechless at Toneri's behavior, but he did feel a strong threat from the roaring creature.
To be honest, although the jinchuriki can utilize the power of the tailed beasts to a certain extent, as long as they are not perfect jinchūriki, they are more like a cage. For the tailed beasts, it is a prison, which not only imprisons them, but also restricts them.
their abilities.
Therefore, if you just want to capture a tailed beast, or attack a tailed beast, the best way is to attack the Jinchūriki.
But once the jinchūriki is completely swallowed up by the tailed beast, and breaks free from the cage and is completely released, it is truly an unrivaled monster.
Toneri doesn't want to fight with the real Five-Tails. If he can't beat him again and again, what's the point?
Kakuzu immediately summoned his heart and left quickly behind Toneri.
Three of the four-faced beasts went directly into Toneri's arms, leaving only the representative Suzaku.
With a slight jump, he grabbed Suzaku's feet.
At the same time, Kakuzu on the ground quickly stretched out his hand, grabbed Toneri's feet, and quickly fled the place with him.
Only the five tails were left in a state of rage. Seeing howling again and again, the fourth tail was about to grow.
But before these tails grew out, several slightly embarrassed figures appeared around the furious Five Tails.
On their heads, they all wore Iwa-nin forehead protectors, and the leading ones looked ugly.
"Damn it, Lord Han has completely lost control and activated the sealing array!"
"yes!"
As soon as the words fell, all the rock ninjas formed seals at the same time.
Several stone pillars that turned into earth dragons sprang out from the ground, and the dragon-head-shaped rocks bit the limbs and tail of the violent five-tails respectively.
But even so, Wuwei is still in a violent rage, as if he can break free from such restraints at any time.
But immediately after, a roof-like earth cover fell from the sky, directly covering the five tails, and quickly shrunk into the shape of a ball.
The earth ball formed by the rock was constantly trembling on the ground, indicating that the five tails were still in a violent state inside.
Immediately afterwards, several Jonin from Iwagakure Village immediately ran forward, took out a few yellow pictures depicting the sealing formation, and pasted them on the rock sphere.
Quickly form a seal to release the sealing technique on the paper, and place both hands on the ball, constantly feeding chakra into it.
The vibrations of the rock ball became lighter and lighter, until finally it completely lost its stillness.
After sensing that the movement in the rock ball had completely disappeared, all the rock ninjas present let out a long breath.
The rock ball split into two halves, revealing Han who had completely returned to his human appearance, but this time, the red armor on his body had completely disappeared.
One of the Iwa nin stepped forward to pick up the unconscious Han and quickly left the place.
In Iwagakure Village, with Ohnoki's cautious character, since he was confident in sending the five-tailed jinchūriki, it was because several of the accompanying jonins in Iwagakure Village were able to use sealing techniques, and they all carried them, which could suppress the five-tailed rage.
The paper is engraved with the sealing array.
After all, no matter which hidden village it is, a qualified jinchuriki is very difficult to find, and Han can still use the power of tailed beasts to a certain extent, so this kind of jinchuriki is even more rare.
Besides, if the tailed beast really breaks free from its restraints and wants to capture him again, it won't be as simple as killing one or two people.
The group of people led Han and quickly left Tian Country. Iwagakure Village's plan of action this time was considered a failure.
But all this has little to do with Toneri and the others who have already left.
After escaping for a certain distance, Toneri and Kakuzu also stopped.
"Okay, it should be almost done here. It seems that the five tails are not violent. Iwagakure Village is still quite capable." Toneri was a little surprised.
Kakuzu took out a black robe again from nowhere and put it on.
She gave him an annoyed look.
"It's still an Ogakure village after all, and that old guy Onoki is not a simple person. How could he not be prepared at all?"
"Huh? It seems that you and Onoki are quite familiar with each other? That's right, you are from the same period, but the old man should be younger than you, right?"
Only then did Toneri remember that Kakuzu and Onoki were both people who existed during the time of the two monsters, Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.
Moreover, although Ohnoki is a stubborn person in character, he still does not completely follow the rules and often hires mercenaries.
Then Kakuzu, who is very famous in the underground bounty world, is also on the list of people he can hire.
"Having dealt with me several times, who do you think is responsible for publishing so many high-priced bounties in the underground bounty world?" Kakuzu said calmly.
"So, my reward is also..."
"Then I don't know, but he does seem like someone who would do this."
Toneri pursed his lips, he was the third generation Tsuchikage, and the blood successor who could still use it was eliminated, so he couldn't get in touch with him if he wanted to take revenge.
"How much do you think it would cost to kill the Third Tsuchikage?"
Kakuzu suddenly stopped, feeling like he heard a joke, and turned to look at him with green eyes.
But all he saw was Toneri grinning and waving his hands, "I'm just kidding, I'm kidding..."
Kakuzu: "......"
"Okay, this time it's over. The mission has been successfully completed. It's time for me to leave. I just don't know how many people are left with me."
"Don't you Konoha care about your so-called companions the most? Why don't you seem to be worried about their safety at all?" Kakuzu was a little surprised.
Although he originally looked down on so-called bonds and so-called friendships, he still had some understanding and knowledge of Konoha's so-called 'will of fire' and the bonds between companions.
Not just Konoha, in fact every hidden village has its own will. For example, in Iwagakure Village, there is the "Will of Stone" proposed by the first Tsuchikage Ishikawa, and he personally guided the current third-generation Tsuchikage Onoki Iwagakure
will.
It gave a profound explanation of the "will of stone" that symbolizes perseverance and unshakability. This speech also had a profound impact on Ohnoki's life. Under the heavy pressure of Uchiha Madara, he rediscovered himself.
Onoki relied on his strong will to fight back.
Whether it is the "Will of Stone" of Iwagakure Village, the "Will of Fire" of Konoha, or the central ideas of other hidden villages, they are all researched by the management class in order to better manage the people below.
s things.
"They? They are the real ninjas. They have the consciousness of being ninjas." Toneri rarely restrained his playful expression.
After a period of contact with root ninjas, Toneri also has a certain understanding of these root people.
They are the ones who really deserve the word "ninja". They are tools through and through. In order to complete the task, they can sacrifice themselves without hesitation.
Although he has no past and no emotions, it is precisely because of this that he will not be disturbed by other emotions.
Ruthless is a bit ruthless, but if there is a chance, Toneri feels that he needs such a tool.
Of course, everyone's opinion is different.
Some people believe that feelings and bonds can stimulate a person's potential to a certain extent and unleash stronger power.
In fact, this is indeed the case. For example, the Uchiha clan, for example, people who are bound by love, friendship, family affection, etc., sometimes will explode with power beyond imagination for the sake of love.
But everyone has different opinions. In Toner's opinion, rather than fluctuating and unstable power, stable power is more attractive.
But he himself didn't want to give up or couldn't give up these feelings at all.
This is probably the so-called...double-standard dog.
Bar...
"It's up to you. Just remember to pay me. I'm leaving. Next time you do such a troublesome task, I'll have to pay more!"
After saying that, Kakuzu jumped up to the treetop and left.
Toneri stood there and recalled what happened this time, stroking the thoughts in his mind to make sure that no traces were left and no one would be caught.
He took out the scroll Danzo handed him from his arms and opened it directly.
I found out that it was actually a letter of recommendation.
In the name of Danzo, he was recommended to a very famous master blacksmith in the Iron Country next to Tian Country.
Toneri's sword is broken, and if he wants to build it later, he must create a sword that can last him a long time or even a lifetime.
It had been a long time since I had used a sword, and Toneri felt very unaccustomed to it, so he couldn't wait to forge a new one. Taking advantage of the fact that the Kingdom of Iron was right next to the Kingdom of Tian, he hesitated slightly and then moved towards it.
The Kingdom of Iron rushed over.
The Country of Iron is the only country where samurai culture is still popular, as Toneri learned from Hatake Sakumo.
In the Iron Kingdom, there are no ninjas.
Moreover, the Kingdom of Iron has a very special status in the entire ninja world. Because of its promise of absolute neutrality, it will never join any side. Therefore, the five Great Hidden Villages have agreed with each other not to spread the war to the Kingdom of Iron.
.
Starting from the first session of the Five Shadows Talk, every subsequent Five Shadows Talk will be held in the Kingdom of Iron, also because of its absolute neutrality.
And each term's leader of the Iron Kingdom will be the host of the Five Shadows Talks.
It is precisely because of this that the Kingdom of Iron is a relatively stable country.
However, the Iron Kingdom is the transition of samurai. The samurai in the Iron Kingdom will have a high status, so not everyone will be welcomed into the Iron Kingdom.
Because there are many samurai, there will naturally be many people who forge samurai swords, and among them there are some who are very famous in the entire ninja world. The person Danzo recommended to Toneri this time is the one who has the most powerful swords in the Kingdom of Iron.
A master forger with high status and fame.
If you want to forge an excellent weapon, an excellent forging master is absolutely indispensable.
Entering the Iron Country is not difficult.
It's just that before entering the Kingdom of Iron, you need to put away the attire you have endured.
It's not that ninjas will receive any bad treatment, but if you enter the Kingdom of Iron as a ninja, there will definitely be a large number of warriors coming to challenge you. If you don't have absolute self-confidence, don't enter the Kingdom of Iron as a ninja.
This is not a difficult thing for Sheren.
He simply changed his clothes and put the short knife he got from the root on his waist, even if he told others that he also used a knife.
In the Kingdom of Iron, even if you only carry a sword, your identity and status will be different.
However, since you carry a knife, you must be prepared to be challenged at any time.
Here, it is very common to be challenged, or to challenge others.
In the Kingdom of Iron, Toneri was trying to find the traces of the person Danzo told him. When he first entered various pubs and hotels, he was challenged by others.
Although he won without any doubt in the end, he also learned some very interesting things from the challengers.
The samurai of the Iron Kingdom generally use the Odachi, or also called the Nodachi, which is a dachi with a length of more than five meters. The short sword used by Toneri can barely be called a small dachi.
Not many people use swords in the Iron Kingdom.
But it's not impossible, because there once appeared a person who swept the entire Iron Kingdom with this kind of sword, and became famous for a while.
Some admirers began to use this kind of sword, and slowly formed a new type of swordsmanship in the Iron Kingdom.
And the person they were talking about was Hatake Sakumo.
Sheren still finds this kind of gossip very strange.
Because he knew something about Hatake Sakumo's past, he did not use his current square sword technique from the beginning.
Instead, he became proficient in all kinds of sword techniques, and finally simplified the complex ones and became what he is now, Konoha White Fang's sword!
However, it only feels slightly novel. Although he and Hatake Sakumo use the same sword, they use it differently.
Toneri still relies more on the chakra transmission of the short sword, which allows him to release ninjutsu and chakra more naturally.
So even if he got a short knife with very high hardness and sharpness from the root, it was still not what he wanted.
Only then did I have this trip to the Kingdom of Heaven and Iron.
But he didn't know that when he went to the Kingdom of Iron, Konoha had undergone earth-shaking changes.
