Chapter 109: Naraku Forges "Dakkon" & Beggar Uchiha Gunbai, Black Dragon Summoning Battle Begins
Naraku once again saw a new reward in his system and chose to claim it immediately.
Ding...
[Sarutobi Hiruzen has reached Intermediate mastery of S (Pseudo) grade weapon Infinite. Talent Replication activated: Sarutobi Hiruzen's complete Five Release ninjutsu collection!]
Ding...
[Sarutobi Hiruzen has reached Advanced mastery of S (Pseudo) grade weapon Infinite. Talent Replication activated: Advanced Wood Release mastery!]
Seeing these two rewards, Naraku knew it was time to go find Sarutobi Hiruzen!
Naraku went straight to the Hokage's office and told Sarutobi Hiruzen he wanted to start forging the Guardian Divine Machine [Supreme Throne] as soon as possible.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also knew this matter couldn't be delayed—after all, the later the Guardian Divine Machine [Supreme Throne] was forged, the more danger Konoha would face each day.
To kill the super dangerous species Naraku described as terrifyingly powerful, Konoha's war machine began quietly turning under Sarutobi Hiruzen's command. Especially the Sealing Team—they were the key players in this battle.
Perhaps because Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to keep Infinite Armor's existence hidden from too many people, this time he didn't invite non-core ninjas.
If not for the need to ensure absolute certainty when sealing the super dangerous species, Naraku suspected Sarutobi Hiruzen might have tried handling the monster alone.
But Naraku felt it was almost impossible for Sarutobi Hiruzen to keep it secret. In his view, the black dragon was only slightly weaker than the Nine-Tails.
Although the black dragon was a bit weaker than the Nine-Tails, it had an advantage the Nine-Tails lacked—it could fly.
Once it got airborne, there really would be no hope.
Additionally, the Nine-Tails might have been specially vulnerable to Sharingan genjutsu due to its origin—something the black dragon probably lacked.
In the end, Naraku still chose to warn Sarutobi Hiruzen: this new monster had combat power comparable to the Nine-Tails.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, seeing Naraku warn him repeatedly, could only abandon hiding Infinite Armor. He pulled in the three Sannin who attended Nawaki's funeral.
He also mobilized most of the Anbu. In the end, pressed hard, he even dragged in the other three members of F4.
Shimura Danzō saw Sarutobi Hiruzen and coldly snorted: "I thought for such an important matter you weren't going to call this old man!"
Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu still wanted to persuade him to plan more carefully, but they were immediately rejected by both Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzō.
Akimichi Torifu stood sourly beside the group—yet another retired man dragged back out again.
Akimichi Torifu felt he must have accumulated eight lifetimes of bad karma to have been teammates with Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzō.
Seeing everyone assembled, Sarutobi Hiruzen signaled Naraku to explain.
Naraku stepped forward and said: "The guy I'm about to summon is stronger than any dangerous species I've summoned before. I even have a premonition that this monster's combat power is comparable to the Nine-Tails!"
As soon as Naraku finished speaking, murmurs spread through the crowd. Everyone present had some understanding of the Nine-Tails' power.
Naraku quickly reassured them: "Although its combat power may be a bit stronger, we also have our advantages! First, we can freely choose the location of its descent, so everyone can go all out. Additionally, we can pre-arrange sealing techniques and traps. Moreover, this time I've prepared a secret weapon—this weapon has power comparable to Incursio! Finally, if the monster can fly, we must break its wings first!"
As soon as Naraku finished, everyone's attention was drawn to the secret weapon.
Especially Shimura Danzō, who stared fixedly at Naraku. Naraku was his subordinate—how could he have such a good thing without Danzō knowing?
Then Naraku looked toward Sarutobi Hiruzen. Sarutobi Hiruzen began carefully arranging the subsequent preparations.
For example, ordering the Sealing Team to pre-set sealing arrays, having the ninjutsu team release swamps at the super dangerous species' landing site in advance.
Finally, Sarutobi Hiruzen also arranged Fire Release ninjas to release Fire Release toward the sky—gradually turning it into gathering dark clouds. Danzō also deployed the Five Release ninjas he had replenished in Hachifusa; the other three ninjas were too unsightly to show.
Naraku quietly held Tsunade's hand and whispered: "Sensei, be careful later—this thing is really dangerous. Don't rush too far forward. You don't want to end up getting dragged out by that thing, right!"
Tsunade looked at her rebellious disciple—who showed zero respect for teachers—and gave Naraku a knuckle rap on the head.
Jiraiya forcibly pretended not to see the two over there.
Afterward the three Sannin also summoned their signature summons. Gamabunta took one look at the lineup present and knew the coming battle wouldn't be simple.
Manda still habitually shouted: "Orochimaru, who am I fighting this time? One hundred sacrifices minimum!"
Orochimaru looked at the arrogant Manda and smiled: "I'll send you a big guy to eat later—as long as you can swallow it!"
Manda laughed proudly: "There's nothing in the entire ninja world I can't eat!
Sarutobi Hiruzen took out Infinite and stuck it into the ground. As Infinite activated, thunder roared in the sky.
It seemed lightning would strike any second.
"Then! Begin!" Sarutobi Hiruzen gave the order.
Naraku walked to the appropriate position and released the super dangerous species: Black Dragon!
"ROAR!"
The moment the black dragon appeared, it let out a roar. The powerful sonic boom created fierce winds, making everyone's clothes flap loudly.
Everyone present finally saw the super dangerous species in the sky!
The monster resembled a black dragon, its body enormous—like a small mountain even while crouching, at least 50 meters tall.
Its entire body was covered in hard, pitch-black scales; its four pitch-black legs were already sunk into the swamp.
Its wings were not yet spread, but even folded they looked extremely wide.
What chilled everyone most was the black dragon's head—huge and ferocious, broad and heavy skull covered in tough scales that glinted darkly even in sunlight.
Its pupils were deep and sharp; thick, twisted horns extended upward like two sharp curved blades, ready to tear enemies apart at any moment.
Its open maw revealed jagged, razor-sharp teeth.
"Attack!" With Sarutobi Hiruzen's command, the assault began.
Heavenly lightning drawn by Sarutobi Hiruzen's Infinite struck toward the black dragon's right wing—bolts as thick as an adult woman's forearm.
Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen's attack, everyone else also unleashed their firepower toward the area below the black dragon's right wing.
"Five Release: Great Barrage Technique!"
"Fire Release: Toad Oil Flame Bullet!"
"Acid Attack!"
"Earth Release: Heavenly Cover!"
...
Powerful firepower instantly poured out!
The Sealing Team directly performed the Eight Trigrams Sealing Technique.
Although no single person could perform this Uzumaki clan sealing technique alone, through everyone's cooperation they forcibly executed it.
As a sealing technique capable of sealing tailed beasts, the moment Eight Trigrams Sealing was activated, the black dragon felt immense suppression—making it even harder to take flight.
Not to mention its feet were still trapped in the swamp.
