[Transformation successful, please check it yourself]
"Nice!"
Shinji waved his arm hard and let out a breath.
As long as it didn't fail and get damaged, this wave was already a win.
As for abilities and attributes, he didn't expect much.
After all, under normal circumstances, this snake sword could not be transformed. It all depended on the forced transformation effect of the [Cursed Tool Transformation Card], and he bet on it with 10,000 Cursed Soul Points.
To succeed was simply luck!
Failure would have been a real loss to his grandma's house.
But some things, the less you have hope, the easier it is to harvest surprises.
Cursed Tool [Snake Skin Sword]
Turtle Snake Unloading Force: Can reduce 60% of the impact force when receiving physical attacks.
Spirit Binding: Each effective attack will absorb a portion of the enemy's chakra or curse power. When the energy is full, the snake eyes on the sword will light up with a red glow.
Golden Snake Frenzy Dance: Releases all accumulated energy, briefly awakens the golden snake body to attack, and the snake teeth are attached with a petrification curse.
Petrification Curse: The body irreversibly turns into stone, inhibiting self-healing and regeneration abilities to a certain extent.
...
After reading the new cursed tool, Shinji smiled so wide that his mouth was crooked.
Except for the name becoming very silly, all four abilities were extremely practical!
[Turtle Snake Unloading Force] was a defensive divine skill, [Spirit Binding] could continuously weaken the enemy, and [Golden Snake Frenzy Dance] was considered a big move.
But what he was most concerned about was this [Petrification Curse]!
Irreversible + inhibiting regeneration!
This meant that the guy who was hit by the [Petrification Curse] was basically not far from death.
Especially the [Special Grade Cursed Spirits] that had always given him a headache.
With this ability, he could restrain the [Special Grade Cursed Spirits]' Reverse Technique - Healing, and he believed that he would be able to give them a surprise at that time!
Shinji played with the golden short sword in his hand with relish.
The [Snake Skin Sword] at this time had undergone some changes.
First of all, the length had become shorter, only about half an arm long.
Secondly, the shape was also different. The connection between the blade and the hilt was a snake's head sleeping with its eyes closed, and the curved blade extended from the snake's mouth, like a venomous snake sticking out its tongue!
The hilt was covered with scale-like patterns, but it didn't feel prickly to the touch.
The color was still a shiny golden yellow, shining brightly in the sunlight.
Shinji was very satisfied and put it away.
If he encountered a difficult enemy in the future, this snake sword could show its fangs!
Most importantly, he no longer had to worry about Cyberte taking it away.
Because even if that guy took this snake sword, he wouldn't be able to find his power again.
What you want is the [Arashi Dust Golden Snake Sword], what does it have to do with my [Snake Skin Sword]?
Shinji laughed heartily.
He estimated that it would make the other party vomit blood in anger!
He glanced at his remaining 14,400 Cursed Soul Points, and didn't rush to draw a lottery, he would save up more before doing so.
This thing was hard-earned, and he might need to use it at any time, such as when he forced the use of the [Cursed Tool Transformation Card] just now.
So it was very necessary to leave some for a rainy day.
Looking at it this way, this trip to the Land of Wind was not only not a loss, but a complete win.
Shinji was happy, and flipped through the various intelligence about Cursed Spirits that he had bought from the exchange, pondering where to go next to make another fortune!
...
A certain cave on the border between the Land of Grass and the Land of Rain.
Opening the barrier, two people wearing Akatsuki cloaks walked straight in.
At the agreed time, Nagato, far away in the Rain Country's tower, immediately activated the Phantom Projection Technique, amplified the "thought waves" sent by other Akatsuki members, and then displayed them in the form of illusions in specific places.
Buzz—
In the dim cave, illusions with colorful bright patterns appeared in their respective positions.
"Why are we gathering everyone again so soon? Is there a new mission?"
Deidara's illusion, with his hair tied in a sky-high braid, couldn't help but ask first, causing Sasori, hiding in Hiruko, to glance at him, probably feeling that he wasn't stable enough.
Deva Path Pain's illusion slowly opened his mouth and said, "Not long ago, a class of unidentified creatures suddenly appeared in the ninja world."
"Thanks to the damage and threats caused by these unidentified creatures to various countries, our Akatsuki organization has received many employment missions, thereby obtaining a large amount of remuneration."
"The main purpose of gathering everyone this time is to first hear your views on these unidentified creatures."
Many people were surprised and didn't understand what the leader meant.
But asking this matter was really asking the right people, because the number of 'monsters' that had died in their hands was unknown.
"Weak, vulnerable!"
Kakuzu, who was the first to come into contact with these unidentified creatures, took the lead in expressing his views.
For a time, no one else spoke, and it seemed that Kakuzu's description also represented some of their thoughts.
But after a little silence, Sasori, who was usually taciturn, actually gave a different opinion.
"They have strong growth potential, and are very special."
After speaking, he didn't explain, so there was another silence.
Feeling extremely embarrassed, Deidara could only laugh dryly and clap his hands twice, "Sasori-aniki is right!"
This directly attracted the eyes of everyone who cared for the mentally handicapped.
Sasori felt even more embarrassed, and a thought popped into his mind: "Should I just make this guy into a puppet later?"
"Anything else?" Deva Path Pain asked again.
"What's going on? Can you stop playing riddles?"
Deidara, who seemed to have sensed the danger, quickly tried to change the topic.
If it wasn't because he knew that he didn't mean anything else, but was just too straightforward, so he occasionally spoke without thinking, Nagato would have controlled Deva Path Pain to give Deidara a Shinra Tensei combo next time they met, so that he could feel the pain!
Damn it, is being a leader so without face?
Interrupting the leader's speech casually, did he not want to continue working?!
Little Dei didn't know that he had offended two big shots in the organization with just two sentences, laying the groundwork for his always being beaten for no reason in the future.
Withdrawing his gaze, and no longer arguing with the problem child, Deva Path Pain gestured, "Itachi, since you discovered it, let you explain it."
Among those present, only Itachi and Kisame were participating in person, the others were elsewhere.
Itachi, who was named, nodded slightly, "My last mission with Kisame was in the Land of Rice, and the same disasters also occurred there. But this time we encountered a tricky target..."
"The other party called himself Hanami, possessed the ability to manipulate plants, and had strong resistance to hits. Even under the joint attack of me and Kisame, he still had the ability to resist, and in the end, he successfully escaped."
As soon as these words came out, everyone except Deva Path Pain and Konan, who already knew, were surprised.
Because the more they understood Itachi's strength, the more they knew how incredible it was to escape from Itachi's hands!
