Chapter 175: Susanoo's Artifact
Seeing the sage face's turning darker and darker, Akira finally stopped the joked. In fact, it was just a friendly banter and he gradually stopped the teased when he saw the sage face turned embarrassed. If he really made this old man annoyed, he would really nag at him to respect your elders properly.
The sage hummed, "Back in my time, I was also a handsome man, with sharp features, well built body and majestic aura, how many young ladies used to flock to my side while being attracted to me..."
Akira rolled his eyes while feeling constipated.
He found out that the sage is really a bit narcissistic.
"Akira, although we didn't hurt Roshi severely, but we did succeed in preventing the meeting between Iwa and Suna. So this can be considered a big success." Tsunade was in a good mood and smiled.
"En, true." Akira smiled and nodded: "I wonder how Orochimaru and Jiraiya are doing."
"With you hiding such a powerful technique you displayed just now, they wouldn't have known they will lose the bet." Tsunade eye smile and she was a little proud. Akira's strength has steadily increased, especially his Susanoo is daunting and tremendously terrifying, which even Tsunade dare not say she will definitely win if she is up against it.
Akira's strength is improving more and more rapidly. With the awakening of his mangekyo sharingan, his strength has increase drastically.
Of course, the Sannin's strength has also improved very quickly as well. They gradually honed their skills and techniques in the battlefield and had experienced many battles, which allows them to grow into a powerhouse not to be reckoned with. There is also Minato, who has been madly tempering himself after the death of Nawaki. Relying only on flying raijin and rasengan, Minato has been able to compete with peak level jonin, showing that he has also made great progress.
Konoha White Fang, Sakumo is still alive, Sannin have become famous and rising stars such as Minato, through this war, Akira has seen Konoha's golden generation of talents and geniuses.
No wonder Hanzo would say that the ultimate winner of this war will be Konoha. Actually, after thinking about it, Konoha is in their most prosperous period, geniuses and talents emerged from the war and help in the winning of the war, which allows the development of Konoha to go rapidly.
Akira smiled: "We must absolutely not allowed Iwa and Suna to truly form a alliance. Our next strategy should be to choose one of the village to attack and end the war as soon as possible."
Against a big country alone, Konoha has a very big chance on wining. If only facing Suna or Iwa, maybe Konoha would have resolved the war long ago.
"Yes, I have the same though as you. This war has being going for way too long, it has been three years and I don't know how long it will go on until it end..." Tsunade sighed.
Unknowingly, the third year of the war has passed and Akira is now thirteen years old, the same age as when Uchiha Itachi awakened his mangekyo sharingan in the original story. However Akira know that this war would last for two to three more years. Of course two to three years is not too long for a war.
Moreover, Akira's existence can also change the plot and let the war end early.
"As long as Iwa and Suna no longer form a alliance, this war won't be able to last too long. A long war will only drag down the economy of the four Countires of wind, fire, earth and rain." Akira said.
Tsunade agrees, standing side by side with Akira as they discussed the future, the two of them rarely get to enjoy this demure time.
Tsunade was also shocked about the battle between Akira and the four tailed jinchuriki, Roshi, and she also many doubts in her mind, such as why the four tailed beast would say that Akira had the aura of sage of the six path... But Tsunade was very clever and didn't ask much. Who doesn't have their own secret? Even Tsunade also has the secret of the shikkotsu forest.
"After this battle, I'm afraid that Akira, you will make the higher management of Iwa shake again." Tsunade chuckled lightly, thinking about the highee management of Iwa having headache and the corners of her mouth tilted in a mesmerizing smile.
Akira smiled back, his current strength is still growing rapidly, but this is just the beginning. After awakening his mangekyo sharingan, his strength has increase drastically and it will only increase as he gets more proficient in using it and evolve it further.
Thinking of this, Akira suddenly communicated with the sage in his mindscape.
"Old man, do you have a way to quickly increase the strength of Susanoo?" Akira's Susanoo is currently only in the initial stage and it only have the form of a skeleton coating and its power is far less than that of a complete Susanoo.
Akira knows very well that after awakening mangekyo sharingan, the strongest power the user can use is Susanoo, so Akira is very concerned about the power increase of Susanoo.
The sage blew his beards hard and glared: "Now you asking for my help when you need it. Aren't you very braved when slandering my appearance just now...that my face is very ugly.
"Who?" Akira acted blur and pretentiously try to play the righteous character, he look to the left and right and said: "Who dares to insult my sensei as ugly, i will help you teach him a lesson!
"..."
The sage was completely speechless. He realized that his student is really cheeky and thicker skinned. Slightly regretting why he accepted this brat as a student.
In the end, the sage had no choice but to compromise: "Okay, okay, stop with the play. I have a way to make your Susanoo more powerful."
"What is it?" Akira's eyes lit up.
"After your Susanoo power form a muscular body, you can equip it with ethereal artifact. Once it is equip with the ethereal artifact at that time, the power of the Susanoo will be greatly increase" The sage said simply.
Akira's heart moved. Of course, he knew that Susanoo could be equipped with ethereal artifacts. Uchiha Itachi's Susanoo had three ethereal artifacts, such as the Totsuka Blade, the Yata Mirror and the Yasaka Beads, which were powerful and unmatched. The same is true for Sasuke and others.
"But aren't all the ethereal artifacts automatically form according to the user after the Susanoo developed it's form?" Akira asked strangely.
"Well, it is true. However, even though the ethereal artifacts form by the Susanoo is very strong, but it is still inferior to the one artifact I left in the Ninja World..." The sage said with a smile.
The artifact left by the sage of the six path!
Akira's eyes lit up and it must be a good thing without even thinking about it. With such a overpowered artifact equipped to his future Susanoo, the power will really be self-evident!
Thinking of this, Akira was shocked.
"Old man, where is this kind of good stuff still hidden?" Akira asked.
The sage smiled slightly: "You brat now knows how to fawn.Well, there is no harm in telling you, but you should first make your Susanoo stronger and reach the muscular form of the Susanoo before I tell you!"
Akira pouted his lips and murmured: "Pretending to be mysterious"
