Chapter 103: Die for Me
On the top of the cliff, the shaking mountain occasionally caused rocks to fall into the deep valleys and shallow depressions. There was chaos on the canyon walls.
Ding ding ding——
The sounds of kunai and shuriken colliding continued. The dancing fire, the rock spikes and earth dragons rushing out from the rock wall, and the tangible and substantial strong winds. The ninjas of Konoha and Sunagakure are intertwined with each other. They seemed to be hanging on wire, completely free from the constraints of gravity. The winner gaining the territorial advantage, the loser falling into the abyss and be shattered to pieces.
Hyuga Tamao, who was controlled by Ryosuke, was also in the chaotic crowd. Precise chakra control allows him to run on the cliff at an angle that defies gravity. He was very fast, and under Ryosuke's conscious control, the body exerted speed and strength beyond the limit. At this moment, Tamao's consciousness had completely fallen asleep, allowing Ryosuke to control this body without any obstacles. After all, in the course of a battle, any slight impact could cost one's life.
This was the first time that Ryosuke used the Byakugan's genjutsu to control other people's bodies to fight. But this feeling was very strange. Not only was there no pain or fatigue, but there were also two perspectives in his mind. One is the view seen through Hyuga Tamao's eyes. The other is the vision that Ryosuke sees through his own perception. These two perspectives intersected in his mind, and all the information and intelligence about the entire battle situation was in his mind, including everyone's position, everyone's approximate strength, and the opponents they were currently facing. Everything formed a picture in Ryosuke's mind. He is now like a sophisticated computing machine, remotely controlling the Hyuga Tamao to fight.
Wandering on the battlefield, he was like a killer, avoiding enemy attacks with every step, and every palm strike was effective, leaving wounds on the enemy. The reason why Ryosuke chose to control a Chunin instead of a Jonin. The reason why a Jonin is a Jonin is largely due to their own combat awareness, which has little to do with their actual physical strength or chakra amount. Therefore, even if Ryosuke used his consciousness to control the body of a Jonin, he would not necessarily be stronger than the Jonin himself.
At this stage, Chunin is the best container. His body has been tempered through a long career as a ninja, so its strength is definitely not low, and the amount of chakra is enough for Ryosuke to squander. He does not suffer from insufficient chakra in battle like the Genin. As the battle time passed, the body and consciousness gradually overlapped. Gradually, Tamao, who was in the battle, and Ryosuke, who was hiding in the crevice at the bottom of the valley, closed their eyes at the same time. But the vision has become broader.
Using his palm as a blade and his heart as an eye, he wantonly reaped life after life. Cold and cruel. But correspondingly, Ryosuke could feel that Tamao's body had experienced small-scale muscle tears, and the increasingly fit, increasingly intense battles had increased his speed and strength. He even gradually acquired the same level of physical strength as Ryosuke himself. But unfortunately, Tamao's body wasn't able to adapt well enough.
"The battle needs to end as soon as possible..." Feeling that the physical burden was becoming increasingly heavy, Ryosuke realized that Tamao might very well die of exhaustion. This battle could not continue in a stalemate. Correspondingly, the entire battlefield, including every person, appeared in his mind. The current battle situation is clearly divided into Chunin and Jonin. In the battle among the Chunins, with Ryosuke, the tireless and pain-insensitive wall-climbing warrior, the battle situation had already become one-sided. On the other hand, the Jonin still maintained a relative balance. They tested each other from time to time, but had not yet started to fight desperately.
On the Sand Village side, there are five Jonin and two puppets. On the Konoha side, in addition to Hizashi and Hyuga Iroha, there are also the captain of the Anbu and the captain of the Root. Homura Mitokado, because of being immersed in clerical work for a long time and the decline of physical functions due to age, although he has the title of Jonin, he has lost the strength of Jonin. So it looks like a five-on-seven battle, but in reality, it's four-on-seven.
"Get rid of a Jonin first, and take down a puppet at the same time." Having a clear understanding of the battle situation, Ryosuke took a deep breath and reacted immediately. Under the high-intensity combat, blood was flowing rapidly throughout Tamao's body and his original form. A faint heat emanated from his body. Ryosuke's palm was covered with substantial light blue chakra that condensed into the shape of a lion.
While studying the art of escape, Ryosuke not only understood the changes in attribute properties, but also had a deeper understanding of the changes in chakra's form. This also means that he has a deeper grasp of the clan's secret technique, the Gentle Step Twin Lions Fist. "Remember to catch his body later." Ryosuke instructed a Hyuga clan member beside him. The next moment, his figure turned into a residual shadow.
Whoosh——
The body flicker allowed his speed to reach the extreme in an instant. As he ran, the light blue lion in Ryosuke's hand gradually solidified and appeared in his palm like a pair of gloves. At a speed that was difficult to capture with the naked eye, Ryosuke's figure entered the battlefield of the Jonin, and rushed straight towards the two Sand Village Jonins who could control puppets in a straight line.
Facing Ryosuke who was rushing towards him recklessly, the Sand Village Jonin sneered. He shook his hand slightly, and the tiny chakra pulled the puppet beside him. It was like a mantis-like humanoid puppet standing in front of him. The special metal looked hard and beautiful under the sunlight shining through the canyon.
A frontal assault may seem like an impulsive, reckless act without any tactics. But in fact, the so-called tactics are just some means used by the weak when trying to defeat the strong. This was a change that Ryosuke made based on Hyuga Hiashi's suggestion after his battle with him. He was right. Sometimes, you don't need to be too calculating in a battle, as that will affect your actual strength.
In the crevice of the rocks at the bottom of the valley, Ryosuke was trembling all over, but this was not fear, but excitement! Driven by emotions, his blood circulation speeded up and his body temperature rose, as if he was in a steam room, with heat coming out from his whole body. The body's chakra has been exerted to the extreme..
Brake--
Facing the sharp blade of the mantis-like puppet, Ryosuke controlled Tamao's body and charged forward with his palms covered with substantial chakra. Although his expression was expressionless, there was only excitement and madness on his face and in his eyes. Even... there was a hint of light! The power of the Byakugan, which only the original body possesses, was transmitted to Tamao's body through blood and the ability of illusion.
"Die!" This was the first time, this was the first time Ryosuke spoke during a battle. In the past, in order to prevent the villain from dying from talking too much, he never talked much during the battle. But now, with all kinds of emotions erupting, the suppressed roar sounded like a wild beast.
Boom!
