Chapter 1222 The Collapse Begins
The shadow imitation technique was originally a ninjutsu with infinite possibilities, but because of too many restrictions, it became a medium- and short-range auxiliary ninjutsu. In the later stage, Shikamaru will develop the shadow shuriken, which is to use the shuriken to fix the opponent's shadow to fix the opponent's movements. It is not necessary to extend your own shadow to catch the opponent's shadow to be effective. In this way, the attack range of the shadow imitation technique is greatly increased.
Of course, to increase the attack range of the shadow, you can also create multiple light sources to create multiple shadows, or you can directly eat more food and gain weight to directly increase your shadow area. Because the only shadow that can be controlled is the shadow projected by your own body, and the shadow projected by clothes and other objects on your body does not count.
Unfortunately, the ultimate limitation of the shadow imitation technique is the amount of chakra of the caster.
At this time, Shikamaru's situation on the field is critical. Akimichi Choji is so nervous that his appetite is opened, and he eats snacks in big mouthfuls. He is really worried about Shikamaru, not because he is hungry.
Everyone also thinks that Shikamaru is in danger because the opponent has opened up the distance. Now as long as he launches an effective attack, Shikamaru will lose.
Shikamaru suffered because he had too little chakra, but now he wanted to surrender anyway, and the plans in his mind could not be realized, so he might as well use up all the chakra at once and exit in a decent manner.
So Shikamaru launched his plan, and Temari's ninjutsu was suspended in the process of releasing it. The surging wind finally formed a breeze that blew on Shikamaru, blowing his side face slightly numb.
Temari's incredible expression froze on her face. She knew that she was controlled, but now she was clearly standing in the sun and there was no shadow in front of her. Why was she controlled?
Could it be behind her?
It was behind her. Shikamaru used the shadow of the entire venue and cast a spell to go around to the shady side of the opposite venue, and then went around from behind Temari.
This venue is a hollow cylinder surrounded by a wall. At this time, the sun is behind Shikamaru, so the wall behind Shikamaru is yin inside and yang outside, and there is a large shadow area inside the wall and on the ground. The wall behind Temari on the opposite side is yang inside and yin outside. Shikamaru used the area of the two shaded sides and finally went around Temari, barely able to catch Temari's shadow.
"The sun's shift is just a bait to make you retreat." Shikamaru said that everything was under his control.
Did he really force himself to retreat closer to the wall on purpose? Temari was shocked by Shikamaru's foresight.
"Although my ninjutsu can only be used within a certain distance, it can still increase the distance if the terrain allows. From the beginning, I thought about how to use the shadow of this high wall." Shikamaru said with his face tilted.
Seeing Shikamaru's awkward movements, Temari immediately knew that the other party tilted his head to increase the shadow area: "Your hair bun?" Shikamaru has a very unique ponytail. Now that his head is tilted, his hair just casts an extra shadow on the ground.
In fact, Shikamaru is also lucky. If Temari didn't retreat so far, Shikamaru couldn't catch her at all. Even using the shadow of her hair, he just barely caught her.
But catching is catching. Although Shikamaru can only turn his head to speak now, his goal has been achieved.
This ninja is interesting. He used all available conditions to reverse the situation at a critical moment, showing the calmness and wit that a great man should have.
"Good job, Shikamaru." Akimichi Choji stuffed potato chips into his mouth for his friend. Anyway, nervousness and happiness have the same reaction, that is, appetite.
But at this time, Shikamaru made a surprising move: "Although I have thought of more than 200 ways to deal with you, my chakra is not enough, and I don't want to attack female ninjas. So I admit defeat." That's right, he admitted defeat himself.
Huh?
All the audience were shocked. This kid spent so much effort to control his opponent, but he gave up such a good situation?
Although the female ninja of Sand Ninja won, in her eyes, Shikamaru's still lazy face became different. Temari looked down on him before, but now she found that he had a different kind of relaxed temperament.
It was another good battle, a fight of martial arts and a battle of wits were both extremely exciting.
The following is Sasuke's battle with Gaara.
However, Sasuke has not come back yet. It is obvious that the special training takes more time than expected. However, Sasuke will not be absent, so at the critical moment when everyone is paying attention, he and Kakashi make a brilliant appearance.
With green leaves as colors and the battlefield as the stage, Sasuke and Kakashi come back to back and dance with the green leaves.
"Shameless." Duran thought to himself, why is the man so coquettish? He doesn't even think about how much he likes to show off. Duran is the kind of person who can show off but can't stand others showing off.
Since Sasuke is here, let's start the battle immediately.
Gaara has a perverted expression of enjoying killing, as if Sasuke is already dead. But who is Sasuke? He is the owner of the Sharingan, so he attacks in an orderly manner.
The familiar attack method reminded some people of a few days ago: "Xiao Li, that's your way." Kai said: "Can you learn it in such a short time just by copying the Sharingan?"
He only learned one form, but that was enough. Sasuke didn't need the destructive power of the steel fist, but the speed of the steel fist, so he learned Xiao Li's power and movement to speed up.
Sure enough, speed is the most difficult opponent for sand to deal with. Sasuke attacked left and right, and Gaara's sand had no time to defend.
But Gaara now remembered Kankuro's instructions, which was to delay time, and not rush to kill Uchiha Sasuke when there were a lot of people to kill later.
So Gaara wrapped himself up and hid in the sand ball, leaving Sasuke helpless.
At this time, the ninjas outside the village were ready. After a long preparation, the Konoha collapse plan was ready.
Orochimaru, hidden under the Kazekage mask, smiled. It was finally possible, so the plan began.
Boom!
Almost at the same time when Sasuke used Chidori, a large snake several tens of meters long appeared outside the village, and it was twenty meters long when it raised its head.
At the same time, the fake Anbu in the competition venue also quickly launched an illusion, knocking most of the audience unconscious.
The sudden change caught everyone off guard, and only a few jonin were not controlled by the illusion. They wanted to protect the Sandaime, but found that the Sandaime had jumped to the roof of the gatehouse with the fake Kazekage.
Duran looked at the chaotic scene, and finally his eyes focused on the Anbu in front of him, that was Kabuto.
I saw Kabuto Yakushi quickly forming hand seals, and two coffins slowly rose in front of Duran. They were the Impure World Reincarnation, and this was the gift that Orochimaru prepared for Duran.
The first and second generations of Konoha.
Duran looked at Orochimaru in the distance and thought that he had a good plan, and he knew to value himself. But without the support of the Impure World Reincarnation, could Orochimaru still fight the third generation?
Of course he could, because Orochimaru was no longer the Orochimaru of the past.
