Chapter 487 One Kill
At this moment, Chiyo was not far from Fugaku and Itachi.
However, since Onoki had not yet shown up, he could only remain still and quietly wait for the moment to make his move.
The battlefield was filled with surging, chaotic chakra fluctuations.
Finding Onoki in such an environment is no easy task, especially when he doesn't mobilize his chakra on a large scale; it's as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.
Chiyo intently scanned the sky, but still couldn't find any trace of Onoki.
Just then, a roar was heard, and Itachi's orange-red Susanoo rose from the ground like a towering mountain.
At this moment, Itachi, who was controlling this powerful force, was only sixteen years old. Compared to when he was twenty-one, his use of Susanoo was still somewhat unfamiliar and immature.
Susanoo swung its enormous fist, unleashing a thunderous attack on Old Purple.
Despite such a fierce attack, Lao Zi remained fearless.
In an instant, molten lava rose around him, radiating intense heat.
"Molten Formation, Granite!"
With a furious roar from Lao Zi, the scorching magma instantly solidified into hard rock.
It collided violently with Susanoo's fist.
With a deafening roar, Itachi immediately sensed a tremendous force of recoil.
At the same time, his own chakra began to drain rapidly.
Even more surprisingly, Susanoo's indestructible fist began to turn red and heat up, showing faint signs of melting.
Old Purple was a veteran of countless battles, possessing extremely rich combat experience. Seeing Itachi in trouble, he immediately seized the opportunity, and his entire body suddenly erupted with dazzling light.
In the blink of an eye, his entire body transformed into scalding magma.
He gathered extremely high-temperature energy in his hand, transforming it into a sharp spear, which he thrust fiercely at Susanoo.
"Molten Cavern, Needle at the Bottom of the Sea!"
This attack was incredibly powerful and extremely fast.
Itachi's expression changed drastically. Knowing he couldn't withstand the attack head-on, he immediately controlled his Susanoo to shatter and used the recoil to retreat rapidly.
But at that moment, something unexpected happened!
The once peaceful ground suddenly exploded, and a dark figure darted out like a ghost.
Trailing a long trail of afterimages, it pounced straight at Itachi's back with lightning speed.
Upon closer inspection, the visitor turned out to be Hiruko!
He simultaneously unleashed both Steel Release and Swift Release bloodline limits.
Then he suddenly launched a kick, aiming straight at Itachi.
If that kick had landed, Itachi would probably have died on the spot.
However, how could Itachi be such an easy opponent?
He is someone who likes to keep some cards up his sleeve and has a high level of combat intelligence.
I would never easily put myself in such a dangerous situation.
In the blink of an eye, just as Hiruko's foot was about to touch Itachi's body, something unexpected happened.
—The itachi's body suddenly exploded in an instant, turning into countless pitch-black crows that scattered in all directions like a blanket of snow.
This sudden turn of events left everyone present speechless, even Lao Zi was stunned for a moment.
[They actually prepared a substitution jutsu so early.]
Just then, a figure leaped up from the shadows on the ground like a ghost, facing Lao Zi directly.
Upon closer inspection, it was none other than Uchiha Chiyo!
"Uchiha Chiyo!?"
Upon seeing this, Lao Zi was greatly alarmed.
He couldn't understand why Uchiha Chiyo would appear here!
Before he could figure it out, a sharp pain suddenly struck him, like a heavy hammer slamming into his head.
Chiyo's eye power is worlds apart from that of Fugaku and Itachi.
Before Lao Zi could even react, everything went black, and he was instantly imprisoned by an invisible force.
But just a moment later, a dazzling light suddenly shone from Lao Zi's body, and the Melting Lock Seal was activated on its own.
Broken chains slowly emerged from his body, like ferocious venomous snakes tightly coiling around him.
The feeling was like someone suddenly stabbing you with a sharp needle while you were fast asleep.
The pain made Lao Zi tremble all over, and he was jolted awake from his coma.
Qian Yao let out a heavy, cold snort.
At the same time, the true body, located far away, continuously transmitted even more vast and powerful eye energy.
In an instant, a surge of pupil power erupted, as turbulent as a volcanic eruption.
Old Zi, who had just woken up from his coma, didn't have time to react at all.
He was struck hard again by this incredibly powerful force and fell into a deep coma.
Qian Yao's face was ashen, his eyes cold as ice. He stretched out a hand and grabbed at Lao Zi as easily as taking something out of a bag.
The next moment, Lao Zi's massive body was completely powerless as Qian Yao gripped it tightly and lifted it into the air.
"What?! The Jinchuriki of Iwagakure has been captured!"
The surrounding Hidden Rock Villagers were immediately stunned, their faces filled with disbelief.
They never expected that, in full view of everyone, their Jinchūriki from Iwagakure would fall into the hands of the enemy so easily.
However, before everyone could recover from this astonishing scene...
The nearby ground suddenly trembled violently, and then a figure shot out of the ground like lightning.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a short, slender man named Onoki.
Onoki gripped a dazzling white light tightly in both hands and shot it towards Chiyo without hesitation.
Clearly, he wanted to take this opportunity to rescue Lao Zi, who had been captured.
Faced with this sudden attack, Qianyao remained completely unmoved.
A slight upturn of his lips revealed a disdainful sneer.
Then, with a flick of his arm, he used the old purple object he was carrying as a shield to meet the oncoming white beam of light.
Upon seeing this, Onoki, who was launching an attack, couldn't help but frown slightly.
However, he was, after all, a seasoned veteran with extremely fast reflexes.
He quickly adjusted the spell in his hands, and the Dust Release technique, which was originally cylindrical, instantly changed into an extremely sharp cone.
Although Onoki changed the form of Dust Release in time, the distance was too close and the speed was too fast.
With a muffled "thud," the sharp, cone-shaped dust shard slammed into Lao Zi's body and pierced through it.
Poor Lao Zi, his entire abdominal cavity was instantly punched open with a hole the size of a fist.
Moreover, the wound is open from both sides, allowing a clear view of the opposite side.
In fact, Onoki also intended to kill Rōshi.
The main reason is that Lao Zi is now firmly in Qian Yao's hands.
If Chiyo were allowed to leave with the Jinchūriki, it would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to Iwagakure.
