Chapter 120 - Chapter 120: Familiar

Thud.

Due to the excessive damage to his body, Mōryō was forced to collapse to the ground. No matter how hard he struggled, it was futile.

Mōryō's personality was inherently violent to begin with. At this moment, his wretched state had already exceeded what his heart could bear, and he could no longer endure this humiliation.

"You will all die miserable deaths, especially you. I will definitely make you regret ever appearing in this world."

"Oh my, how scary. In that case, I definitely can't let you escape today."

Seeing Mōryō still glaring fixedly at her even while collapsed on the ground, Furina couldn't help but feel the urge to complain inwardly.

It wasn't like she was the only one who acted. She just hit a bit harder, that's all. Was that really necessary? How annoying, hah.

But jokes aside, Furina's hands didn't slack off at all. After forming hand seals, the accumulated water on the ground began to change once more, ultimately condensing into four massive water pillars that flew toward Mōryō.

However, this time the water pillars did not directly attack the opponent. Instead, they landed around Mōryō, forming a square shape that enclosed him within.

"!"

Although he didn't know Furina's purpose, this unusual scene still made Mōryō instinctively feel something was wrong. His intuition told him that if he did nothing, what happened next would definitely not be good.

Sensing the danger, Mōryō no longer cared about his now tattered and broken body. He suddenly opened his mouth wide, and from within it rushed out a purple illusory figure. The evil aura it constantly emanated made one's hair stand on end, and goosebumps rose involuntarily.

Seeing this eerie scene, Furina prepared to stop her actions, wanting to observe the situation first before deciding what to do next.

However, Furina then noticed Kakashi's signal, indicating that she could relax and didn't need to worry about it.

"I didn't expect Kakashi to have already awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan at this point. Was it this early in the original story? But thinking about it, her encouragement probably played a part in this."

Watching the three tomoe in Kakashi's Sharingan spin rapidly and then form a special pattern, Furina also understood where his confidence came from.

In this world, no space-time ninjutsu was weak. Kakashi's—or rather, Obito's—Kamui was naturally no exception.

Although Mōryō's current state looked quite mysterious, Furina didn't think the opponent could ignore Kamui's ability. After all, even the progenitor of chakra, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, had suffered setbacks against an enhanced version of Kamui.

And while the current Kamui was only from one eye and lacked the power of Six Paths, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki was far beyond what Mōryō could compare to...

Although Furina trusted Kakashi greatly and knew how powerful Kamui was, since it concerned her own safety, she still prepared to retreat at any moment. Even if Kamui failed, she could dodge in time.

"Kamui."

Fortunately, Kakashi ultimately did not disappoint. The moment Mōryō's soul had just detached from his body and prepared to attack, the space where his soul resided began to distort, as if it wanted to absorb everything around it.

"?"

The instant Kakashi used Kamui, Mōryō felt a familiar sensation—similar to that masked man from before, also a power that manipulated space.

But at this point, Mōryō had no time to think about the reason behind it. He had already personally experienced the might of this ninjutsu earlier and naturally didn't want to go through it a second time.
