Chapter 1089: Joining Forces
In the Infinite Castle.
Boom boom boom.
Chinano was blown away like a cannonball, knocking down several walls and smashing through several houses along the way before she could barely stop.
Ryuuga shouted: "Chinano!"
Yakumo shouted: "Don't be distracted!"
Ssss.
Before he finished speaking, Tanjiro appeared in front of Ryuuga with a flash, and slashed down with the Sunwheel Blade in his hand.
Ryuuga, who had reacted, immediately waved the kunai in his hand to block.
Clang!
In an instant, a sharp metal collision sound resounded throughout the entire block!
Then, the Sunwheel Blade in Tanjiro's hand suddenly turned red, and then with a "click", the kunai blocked by Ryuuga broke into two pieces, and Tanjiro's Sunwheel Blade slashed down instantly.
"How could it be!?"
Although he was terrified, Ryuuga, who had already activated the "Twelve Zodiacs", still reacted and quickly retreated.
Swish.
The sword shadow slid down, bringing up a blood flower.
"Hoohoo."
Longshe panted heavily, she looked down at her chest, a shallow sword mark was clearly visible, which made her very scared.
If her reaction was a little slower, I'm afraid her whole body would be cut in half by the opponent.
Yakumo on the side was also panting.
It wasn't too long since they arrived at the battlefield, but this short time seemed extremely long in their eyes.
The strength of the "Upper String One" in front of them was completely beyond their imagination.
Whether it was speed, strength, or reaction, the opponent had reached the top level in the ninja world. Yakumo even vaguely felt that the opponent had mastered some kind of eye technique and could see through their movements.
Yakumo's guess was actually correct. Tanjiro's attainments in the "breathing method" were catching up with Tsugakuin Yoriichi. He not only opened the "markers", but also mastered the "transparent world" representing the highest level of the "breathing method".
Clang
Throwing away the half-broken kunai in his hand, Ryuuga looked solemn.
Now she finally understood why Ringo Yuyuri, Chojuro, and Darui were defeated by the ‘Upper String One’ so quickly.
Not only was the opponent powerful, but the weapon in his hand was also unexpectedly sharp.
You should know that she was equipped with the most sophisticated ninja tools provided by the ninja village coalition, all forged by master steel.
But even such ninja tools could not block the weapons in the opponent's hands.
At this time, Chino, who fell in the ruins, jumped out and wiped the dust off her face.
Not daring to be distracted anymore, staring at Tanjiro's Ryuuga with her eyes fixed and asked: "Chino, are you okay!"
Chino replied: "I'm fine!"
Yakumo said: "Everyone be careful, this guy is a little bit wrong!"
This is more than just a little bit, everyone present, counted, saw that the ‘Upper String One’ was wrong.
The ‘Upper String Demon’ is indeed very strong, but not to this extent.
It can be said that among the ninjas present, only Ryuga, Chino, who has practiced the ‘Twelve Zodiacs’, or Yakumo, who possesses the ‘Red Dragon Eye’, can resist the ‘Upper String One’.
Others, such as Ringo Yuyuri and Darui, can barely keep up with the ‘Upper String One’ in terms of speed, but they are completely unable to keep up with the opponent in terms of insight and reaction.
Going down, ordinary ninjas would basically die, and it would be difficult to even play the role of consuming the opponent.
Yakumo even thought of retreating first, reporting the situation here to Shinji, and then taking action after Shinji or Karin came to support.
Yes, unlike other ninjas trapped in the ‘Infinite City’, Yakumo, who controls the ‘Red Dragon’, can leave at any time.
But there are too many companions trapped in the ‘Infinite City’ at the moment. If she leaves, the situation may collapse instantly, and the casualties are difficult to estimate.
In addition, the ‘Upper String One’ was obviously coming for Muque this time. She was worried that after the ‘Upper String One’ merged with Muque, it might be even more difficult to deal with.
Swish.
At this moment, a gust of air surged, and then Muque, who fell to the side, was suddenly grabbed by a transparent figure and flew away quickly.
Tanjiro reacted instantly and slashed with a swift sword, forcing the transparent figure who was about to sneak away Muque to stop.
No doubt.
The one who tried to sneak away Muque was Ranmaru who activated the ‘Transparent Release’.
Seeing that Tanjiro’s sword slashed at him, not only blocked his way, but also went straight to his face, so he quickly activated the ‘Steel Release’ and raised his arm to block it.
Clang.
There was another sharp sound, and Ranmaru flew back.
He looked at his bleeding left arm, his face extremely solemn. This was the first time he was hit by a sharp weapon and bled after mastering the ‘Steel Release’.
What made it even harder for him to accept was that the other party seemed to be able to see through his "Transparent Escape".
"It is so!"
Yakumo said inwardly, becoming more and more certain that the "Upper String One" had mastered some kind of eye technique.
As the one who possessed the Red Dragon Eye, she actually noticed Ranmaru just now, but she did not speak to interfere with Ranmaru's attempt to take Musukui away, because she felt that even if Musukui fell into the hands of Dark Akatsuki, it would be better than being fused with the Upper String One.
Similarly, Ranmaru did not try to sneak attack Yakumo and his team while they were fighting with the Upper String One, because Ranmaru also tasted the weirdness of the Upper String One, and his intuition told him that he must not let the Upper String One fuse with Musukui.
In this way, Ranmaru of the Akatsuki organization was added to the battle circle surrounding the Upper String One.
Not counting Ringo Ayuri and Chojuro who had fallen to the ground with serious injuries, the only ones who were still able to fight in the battle circle at this time were Yakumo, Ryuga, Chinano, Ranmaru, and the injured Darui, plus some coalition ninjas who were almost scared out of their wits in the outer circle.
The number of people was less than half of the beginning, so it seemed a bit sparse, and the morale was even lower.
Everyone looked at each other, especially Yakumo and Ranmaru, who were enemies fighting each other just now, but now they have to join forces because of the appearance of the "Upper String One".
Suddenly, a whistle came from the sky.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a huge clay bird falling from the sky and landing on the head of the "Upper String One".
"Explosion is art!"
Boom boom.
In an instant, the clay bird exploded, and the huge explosion swept everything, and the whole block was engulfed in flames!
Under the shock wave of the explosion, the nearby blocks were also affected, and large areas of houses were razed to the ground.
In the ruins, Yakumo, who was hiding under the "Wood Release", was speechless while holding the unconscious Ringo Yuyuri.
Deidara's attack was too sudden and the range of influence was too large, resulting in her speed. She could only barely take Ringo Yuyuri out of the battlefield.
Fortunately, Ryuuga and Chino were also very fast. One of them rescued Chojuro, and the other rescued the injured Darui.
And Muku was dragged out of the core area of the explosion by Ranmaru.
As for the other ninjas, since they were originally in the outer circle, although they were affected by the explosion, most of them escaped.
