Naruto's voice trembled as he looked at the horrific wound on Sasuke's shoulder blade, from which blood was gushing out.
"He won't die..."
Sasuke gritted his teeth, cold sweat beading on his forehead, his Sharingan fixed on Kimimaro, who had temporarily taken a step back: "Don't get distracted! This guy... isn't dead yet!"
Kimimaro flicked the blood off his bone blade and looked at Sasuke, who was badly injured.
There was no emotion in his eyes, as if he had only accomplished a trivial task.
Chapter 189 Taking a Risk!
Kimimaro's reptilian vertical pupils turned to Naruto, his voice hoarse and cold: "You troublesome brat... since you're so obstructive, let's get rid of you first."
The four enormous bone spikes on his back rose again, their tips locking onto Naruto!
Naruto shielded the heavily injured Sasuke behind him.
Looking at Kimimaro, who was closing in step by step, like an invincible monster.
The anger and confusion in his heart erupted like a volcano: "Why?! Why would you go to such lengths for that disgusting Orochimaru?! What did he give you?!"
Kimimaro paused slightly in his forward charge.
For the first time, a clear emotional fluctuation appeared on his狰狞 face and in his cold, vertical pupils—
A near-devout fanaticism!
"Lord Orochimaru..."
Kimimaro's voice was no longer cold; instead, it took on an almost chanting tone.
Filled with indescribable reverence and gratitude: "He gave me meaning to my existence! He gave me value to live!"
"When I was seen as a monster by my people, abandoned by the world, and barely surviving like a walking corpse..."
"It's Lord Orochimaru! He saw me! He accepted me! He told me that my 'Shikotsumyaku' (Corpse Bone Pulse), which was considered a curse, is a treasure bestowed by the heavens!"
"It was he... who gave my life a new light!"
His voice grew louder and louder, filled with a morbid excitement: "Lord Orochimaru is great!"
"He is the being closest to the truth! His wisdom is as vast as the stars and the sea! His power is enough to overturn the world!"
"To be Orochimaru's tool, to clear obstacles for him, and to fulfill his long-cherished wish..."
"This is me, Kaguya Kimimaro! The sole meaning of my existence in this world! It is supreme glory!"
That fanatical gaze, that twisted faith, that attitude of regarding oneself as a mere tool and taking pride in it.
Naruto and Sasuke both felt a chill rise up their spines!
This is more chilling than mere murderous intent!
This is a kind of loyalty that is utterly twisted in the soul and morbid to the extreme!
"You're insane...you're absolutely insane!"
Looking at Kimimaro's fanatical and distorted face, Naruto felt a wave of nausea and sorrow: "Was it worth it for someone like that?!"
Whether it's worth it or not is none of your business to judge!
Kimimaro's fanaticism was instantly replaced by a chilling killing intent: "To offer everything to Lord Orochimaru is my destiny! Now... die!"
The four enormous bone spikes on his back trembled violently, their tips condensing into terrifying energy fluctuations!
At the same time, he transformed into a black storm of death once again, rushing towards Naruto and the heavily injured Sasuke!
This time, we are determined to crush them completely!
"Sasuke! Step back!"
Naruto shoved the heavily injured Sasuke to a relatively safe corner behind him, and at the same time slammed his hands down on the ground!
"Earth Escape·Yellow Spring Marsh!"
Centered on Kimimaro's charging path, a larger area of hard ground instantly softened and collapsed!
The thick, cold black swamp reappeared, attempting to slow the terrifying charge!
However, Kimimaro's power in his second state far surpassed that of before!
His charge only paused slightly before his chakra erupted violently beneath his feet, blasting the mud apart with tremendous force!
Although its speed decreased slightly, it still charged forward with unstoppable momentum!
However, after wading through the mud, his lower body inevitably got covered in a lot of sticky mud, which affected his movements to some extent.
Taking advantage of this brief delay, Naruto quickly retreated to Sasuke's side.
Looking at Sasuke's pale, bloodless face and the horrific wound on his shoulder blade.
He glanced again at Kimimaro, who had broken through the mud and was approaching like a demon god, and a resolute madness flashed in his eyes.
Naruto's voice was hoarse with anger and anxiety: "I don't want to hear that madman's thoughts anymore! I don't want to know about his twisted beliefs!"
"All I want to do right now is kill him! Immediately! Right now!"
This was the first time Naruto had felt such intense killing intent towards someone; such a person was impossible to communicate with verbally.
Sasuke leaned against the dilapidated wall, breathing heavily.
Every breath aggravated the wound on my shoulder blade, bringing excruciating pain.
He tried to move his injured left arm, and a sharp pain shot through him. It seemed that his left arm had been dislocated while he was blocking the bone spur.
He gritted his teeth, grabbed his left arm with his right hand, and twisted it violently!
A sickeningly loud sound as the bone realigns itself!
Sasuke was in so much pain that the veins on his forehead bulged and he was sweating profusely, but he didn't utter a sound.
He raised his head, his crimson Sharingan fixed on Kimimaro, who had broken through the mud and whose speed had slowed slightly but was still terrifying.
His voice trembled slightly from the pain: "Kill him? Easier said than done... cough cough... his defenses... you saw them!"
"Our ninjutsu is almost ineffective! Taijutsu is suicidal! Even Chidori Stream can only paralyze him for a moment... Now that he's at full power, how are we supposed to break through his defenses?!"
As Naruto looked at Sasuke's pained expression and then at Kimimaro, who was closing in, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
Suddenly, an extremely bold, even whimsical, idea popped into my head!
Naruto's eyes lit up suddenly, as if he had grasped at a last straw: "My Rasengan! It's purely formed from rapidly spinning chakra! It has no attribute!"
"Sasuke! Try adding your Chidori into my Rasengan!"
"what?!"
Sasuke's pupils constricted, almost thinking he had misheard: "Forcibly merging Lightning Release, a nature transformation technique, into a Rasengan?! Are you insane?!"
"Forcibly fusing two different forms of chakra could cause an explosion in our hands if we're not careful! We'd both be the first to be blown up!"
Sasuke was speechless at Naruto's wild ideas; this wasn't fighting, it was courting death.
"I know it's dangerous!"
Naruto growled urgently, looking at Kimimaro who was now almost within reach, the opponent raising his bone blade once more: "But this is our only chance!"
"No matter how hard his bones are, they are still matter! Matter can be destroyed by high-frequency vibrations and violent energy!"
"The high-frequency vibration of Lightning Release combined with the extreme rotation and destructive power of the Rasengan... Maybe! Maybe it will work! It's better than waiting to die here!"
"Can it work?!"
Sasuke looked at the reckless madness and trust in Naruto's eyes, and then at Kimimaro's ferocious face filled with determination.
There's no time to hesitate!
A ruthless glint flashed in Sasuke's eyes!
Rather than waiting to die, it's better to risk your life and fight to the death!
He struggled to stand up, ignoring the excruciating pain from his shoulder blade wound, and once again, blinding blue lightning erupted from his right palm!
“Chidori!!!”
At the same time, a more solid and wildly spinning azure Rasengan instantly formed between Naruto's hands!
"Rasengan!!!"
Chapter 190 Blue Light Chidori Extreme Speed Storm Rasengan
"For Lord Orochimaru..."
Kimimaro's cold voice carried the final verdict.
His right hand was raised high, and the bones in his arm grew, twisted, and deformed wildly.
In an instant, it coalesced into a gigantic, high-speed rotating, terrifying spiral bone drill, like a siege drill bit!
The drill bit tip gleamed with a chilling light!
"...As long as your eyes are intact, that's enough! Your body's priority... is secondary! Die, Uchiha Sasuke!"
The enormous spiral bone drill, carrying a terrifying force that seemed to tear everything apart, hurtled towards Sasuke and Naruto!
The air was torn apart, emitting a piercing scream!
"Sasuke! Hurry up!!"
Naruto sensed the deathly aura emanating from the bone drill and roared anxiously!
"I hope your intuition is right!"
A hint of madness flashed in Sasuke's eyes.
Without further hesitation, he forcefully and recklessly pressed the wildly screeching Chidori in his left hand against the rapidly spinning Rasengan between Naruto's hands!
“Sizzle——!!!”
The moment the raging Lightning Release chakra touched the Rasengan, a sudden change occurred!
A piercing, high-pitched noise, far exceeding the chirping of a thousand birds, erupted instantly!
It was as if a million metal birds were wailing at the same time!
