Chapter 820 - Chapter 418: The Thoughtless, Mindless Strike

Shisui focused Chakra in his eyes, and the blood-red Three Tomoe Sharingan appeared, scanning through Yokokawa Tsutomu's entire body at lightning speed.

Yokokawa Tsutomu's body was incredibly strange, as Shisui could not see anything that could be called eyes, but Yokokawa had normal, even superior, vision.

Shisui thought that Yokokawa Tsutomu might have eyes, just that ordinary eyes couldn't detect them.

"Even the Sharingan can't find it? Then ordinary visual Genjutsu won't work." Shisui realized that even when he pushed his visual prowess to the limits, he couldn't locate Yokokawa's eyes.

Shisui felt a bit troubled, as this meant his Genjutsu would be useless in this battle.

"If only Zorua were stronger, I might have summoned Zorua to try." Shisui thought.

Zorua was still too young and couldn't be used in high-intensity warfare.

"Those who can't counter Genjutsu, close your eyes," Shisui quietly reminded his companions, then began forming hand seals to use Genjutsu.

Although he couldn't place Yokokawa Tsutomu under Genjutsu, he could deal with the other Grass Ninja, thus removing some unstable elements.

No one could guarantee that under Yokokawa Tsutomu's threat, those Grass Ninja wouldn't turn against them.

"Nirvana Meditation Jutsu!"

As Shisui's Chakra surged, illusionary feathers fell from the sky like rain. Whether it was the Grass Ninja planning to obey orders or those looking to help Kakashi, upon seeing the feathers, a strong drowsiness overwhelmed them, and they fell asleep instantly.

After the Ninjutsu ended, only three Grass Ninja were still standing, all others having fallen under Shisui's Genjutsu.

Shisui was not surprised by this result; even with the bending spoon's enhancement, the Nirvana Meditation Jutsu remained a large-scale Genjutsu with a weak effect.

"Fire Release: Impatiens Claw Red!"

Obito gathered a large amount of Chakra in his throat and expelled a burst of flames, followed by a rapid throw of shuriken.

The shuriken pierced through the flames, transforming into small fireballs, hurling toward Yokokawa Tsutomu like a net of fire.

Kakashi quickly dashed forward, each hand holding two Kunai radiating with lightning.

"A bunch of useless wastes, you'll all become fodder for the new Grass Village later; it doesn't need failures."

Yokokawa Tsutomu sneered, quickly flapping his giant wings and darting through Obito's barrage of firepower like a shadow.

Although his physical body was strong now, enduring Ninjutsu directly was foolish; avoidance was better.

"Secret Technique: Insect Sphere!"

Aburame Shikuro ran while pushing his body's Chakra to the limit, releasing a swarm of parasitic insects like a black fog from his body, charging at the approaching Yokokawa Tsutomu.

Yokokawa Tsutomu was too fast; to attack him, they needed to join forces.

Seeing through Aburame Shikuro's attack intent, Yokokawa Tsutomu raised his flying height, evading the black fog-like swarm.

"Shadow Possession Jutsu!"

Nara Suzaku immediately activated his Secret Technique, extending his shadow toward Yokokawa Tsutomu's shadow.

Although Yokokawa Tsutomu flew in the sky, his shadow was still on the ground.

But something unexpected happened to Nara Suzaku; Yokokawa Tsutomu rapidly flapped his wings, retreating swiftly to a distance beyond the reach of the Shadow Possession Jutsu.

Swish, swish, swish!!

At this moment, Kakashi, who had maneuvered behind Yokokawa Tsutomu, finally attacked, launching four lightning-imbued Kunai through the air toward Yokokawa Tsutomu's wings.

Shisui watched Yokokawa Tsutomu closely; wing injuries would affect his speed, complicating his evasion of their attacks.

Yokokawa Tsutomu seemed to possess a 360-degree view; even with Kakashi behind him, he danced gracefully, evading the lightning Kunai with ease.

"Does he possess an ability similar to the Transparent World?" Kakashi frowned slightly; Yokokawa Tsutomu's ability to dodge so perfectly, despite his massive body, was eerie.

Kakashi, who mastered the Transparent World, knew how troublesome an opponent with such abilities could be.

"Fire Release: Ghost Lantern!"

After gathering Chakra, Ryuhi struck decisively, launching over thirty ghost-faced fireballs at Yokokawa Tsutomu.

Boom!!

Several fireballs hit Yokokawa Tsutomu, causing explosions and leaving a charred mark on his body.

"What's this?" Kakashi was puzzled.

Ryuhi's attack timing wasn't bad, but it should not have hit Yokokawa Tsutomu; in terms of timing, Kakashi's attack had been better.

"Ryuhi, are you seeking death?" Yokokawa Tsutomu roared in anger, raising his massive claw and charging full speed at Ryuhi's location.

"Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"

Kakashi, who had foreseen Yokokawa Tsutomu's move through the Transparent World, preemptively formed hand seals, raising a massive dog-headed earthen wall in front of Ryuhi.

Boom!

Yokokawa Tsutomu's giant claw smashed into the earthen wall, cracking it like a spiderweb instantly.

Ryuhi barely had time to thank Kakashi, immediately using Instant Body Jutsu to relocate.

The moment after, the earthen wall shattered, leaving a crater where Ryuhi had stood.

Swish!

Maruboshi Kosuke concentrated Chakra on his feet and executed an Iaijutsu Slash.

Yokokawa Tsutomu instantly raised his claw to block the coming longsword, then swung his other hand toward Maruboshi Kosuke.

"Uncle who takes the blame, watch out!" Obito shouted a warning after seeing Yokokawa Tsutomu's move with his Sharingan.

A battle-hardened Maruboshi Kosuke wouldn't be easily injured; he unemotionally minimized his strength, using Yokokawa Tsutomu's power to nimbly evade the attack.

Kakashi and the others seized the opportunity to attack again, but to no avail.
