Chapter 169 New Map: The Ninja World?!
Chapter 169 New Map: The Ninja World?!
"Whoosh! Hah!"
Yuuki took a deep breath and used his mental energy to carefully perceive the surrounding mist.
For some reason, the fog gave him a very bad feeling.
Fog mainly refers to water vapor and other small water droplets suspended in the air.
Is it an electronic city ruin?
The closest point to the map's edge is a pile of brightly colored garbage.
Yuuki looked around for a few minutes, then strode toward the garbage heap.
A thousand jumping insects, arranged in twenty square formations, guarded his side, spewing flames from their mouths for illumination.
We walked and looked around.
Yuuki sensed no life other than springtails and himself; there were no insects or microorganisms on the ground.
Even on the insect hive map, there are many microorganisms living on the ground.
But the new map is completely devoid of life.
“No natural energy…” Yuuki frowned, a hint of uncertainty on his face. “The air is filled with chakra?”
Is it a technique released by a powerful being, or can chakra actually float in the air?
Another question is, why is the new map related to chakra?
What is the connection between the expansion of the summoning space and the ninja world?
What exactly does this mutation represent?
In any situation, when you encounter a battle, you must not fall into the enemy's rhythm.
Yuuki stood beside the pile of garbage, analyzing its composition.
A train carriage was left in the middle, surrounded by piles of discarded bottles and cans.
Yuuki manipulated the perfume butterfly to move a soda can in front of him and examine it carefully.
"The patterns on the jar are strangely colored, but the writing is almost identical to that of the ninja world. The title on the jar means..."
"Creating happiness with heart?"
They also sent dozens of perfume butterflies into the garbage dump to collect various ornaments with characters and patterns.
No food waste was found; all the waste consisted of metal products.
Even food scraps and other such items are rarely seen.
There are many possibilities for this to happen.
If left for too long, the organic matter will rot and disappear.
It's possible that this place doesn't need food!
"Go!"
Yushu stepped back a few paces, shielding the swarm of insects in front of him.
They then dispatched a dozen or so flying mantises to explore deeper into the area, leaving the surface to be explored by springtails and detoxifying ants.
Yuuki directed the production ants to collect and decompose the surrounding metal resources.
How could I possibly personally go into dangerous areas to explore?
Yuuki closed his eyes, suppressing his excitement at unlocking the new map, and silently warned himself that he had to be careful!
The new map is indeed good, but not as good as that fried pork stall on the west side of the street.
That's the small shop where he personally taught us the secret recipe, and it became a huge success in Konoha.
He suddenly remembered the crispy pork, 100 taels for a small portion, golden and crispy, tender and juicy, making a 'crunch' sound when you bite into it, the soft and crispy feeling spreading in your mouth, like thin ice breaking slightly, the slight oil moistening your lips... that familiar feeling seemed to appear on his lips.
and many more!
Yuuki suddenly opened his eyes and made a hand seal.
Illusion, dispel!
The familiar crispy pork flavor has faded.
Yuuki's eyes closed and opened, and the surrounding scenery changed drastically.
He appeared in a confined space filled with mist and deathly silence.
In the very center sat an old man with white skin and horns on his head.
This person was wearing a white outer robe, with white hair, white hands, and the Rinnegan!
Six jet-black magatama beads hung on his back!
"This is—the Sage of Six Paths!"
Yuuki visibly panicked, and a kaleidoscope instantly appeared in his eyes.
"A little guy who travels outside of time!"
"You have wantonly interfered with the fate of the ninja world, changed the predetermined future of the Land of Fire, and committed unforgivable sins of greed, anger, and ignorance!"
"In the name of the Sage of Six Paths, I sentence you to ten thousand years in prison!"
"Repent at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain!"
Upon hearing these words, Yuuki's panic subsided, and he became expressionless.
That's so distracting!
What is going on?
After entering the new map, he didn't touch any items. If he had to say what he touched, it was only the fog!
Having thought this through, Yuuki decisively activated Susanoo, releasing all his chakra and spiritual power!
A powerful, suffocating surge of chakra shot into the sky!
Like a sharp blade, it sliced through the surrounding mist, causing the space to tremble!
Black ribs burst forth from his back, firmly protecting You Shu at the center.
The bones emitted ominous black flames and gleamed with a cold metallic luster.
"The illusion hasn't disappeared yet!" Yuuki closed his eyes and sensed it.
Next, the thoracic vertebrae, vertebrae, pelvis... the complete skeleton formed a huge skeletal body, and finally the head appeared, flickering with two dark green flames.
Black flames spread from his ribs until they covered Susanoo's entire body.
The black Susanoo stood on the earth, completely isolating Yuuki from the surrounding mist.
The mist that was approaching the flames surrounding Susanoo inexplicably dissipated significantly.
"The hallucination is gone!"
Yuuki breathed a sigh of relief as he saw ruins reappear before his eyes.
When he first entered the illusion, he really thought he had been captured by the Sage of Six Paths!
The fear of not being able to control one's own destiny is truly unsettling!
Yuuki's eyes were cold as he carefully sensed the fog that was causing the hallucinations.
The mist in the ruins of the electronic city is not traditional water vapor, but a special liquid.
This liquid can reduce visibility.
It enters the body through respiration and, by continuously interfering with bioelectricity, can cause the nervous system to become disordered, leading to hallucinations and memory confusion.
In severe cases, it can even create vivid hallucinations in memory, generating unspeakable fear!
Just now, Yuuki suddenly found himself in the Pure Land space of the Six Paths Old Man!
Horror!
He took half a step back, completely leaving the area shrouded in urban ruins.
"Heroes of the world are as numerous as carp crossing a river!"
Yuuki sighed, wondering if the fog was man-made, and what kind of genius had created such a silent defensive mechanism.
Speaking of which, the fog that creates illusions is quite similar to Nagato's Rain Tiger Free Technique from the future Akatsuki.
Yuuki narrowed his eyes and began to conduct the experiment meticulously once again.
Sure enough, the fog was collected and gathered to a certain concentration.
He successfully sensed the fluctuations of chakra within it!
"Is it really a ninjutsu?"
Yuuki gazed at the mist that barely extended outwards, a guess forming in his mind. He then shifted his focus to the flying mantis that had ventured deeper into the ruins.
As expected, all thirteen flying mantises 'crashed'.
On the contrary, the stinging ants and jumping insects that were 'huffing' and scrambling on the ground did not show much abnormality.
A springtail is like an adrenaline-fueled worm.
With their minds filled only with battle and excitement, and almost no memory or desire, they are an excellent reconnaissance soldier.
Needless to say, stinging ants are another story.
There were only commands in his mind, no fear.
Yuuki ordered a combined force of springtails and stinging ants to turn around and move the 'crashed' flying mantises.
The other teams continued exploring the ruins.
In less than two and a half minutes.
The first springtail moved to a wall that was painted in various colors.
It was written in tattered ninja script.
Yuuki could vaguely make out who it was.
"A resounding celebration for the Tenth Hokage! He held the seventh line of defense! He laid a solid foundation for the ninja world's counterattack!"
'Rejoice! The great Tenth Generation once walked this path!'
'The Tenth Hokage is a bastard! All his achievements are just empty boasts!'
Emergency evacuation! The seventh line of defense has fallen!
'Danger! Danger! Danger!'
Other banners were either completely faded or had only a few words left, making it impossible to discern their true meaning.
However, after reading it, Yuuki's expression turned serious in an instant.
This urban ruin was once—the ninja world?
