Chapitre 36: Killing Ninjas
"What? Damn it, I can't use my Chakra." Suddenly feeling their Chakra being sealed, three of them panicked. It was unprecedented to seal Chakra just like that.
But, it didn't mean that it was enough to kill them. While they panicked for a moment, they quickly realized that their physical strength wasn't sealed. So, they still rushed toward Menma.
After all, Menma was just a kid in their eyes.
But, this was exactly what Menma wanted. If they had run out of the seal, their chakra would easily be unsealed. In that situation, if they use massive AOE attacks, he would definitely die or at least get decapitated.
But now that they ran toward him, Menma had a chance to take them down. Although he was inside the seal, his Chakra wasn't sealed by it. At this moment, there was killing intent in his eyes.
He instantly made his own seals.
[Tiger - Boar - Horse - Dragon]
[Lightning Style- Pure Thunderbolt]
Bang
A blue lightning burst out of his palm and struck three of them. Before even they could realize why Menma was able to use Ninjutsu, they were heavily injured.
Using this as a chance, Menma quickly took out the Kunai and rushed toward them.
He thrust his hand and the kunai pierced the heart of the Ninja in the middle. Although a Lightning bolt struck them, they weren't dead. Seeing one of them die, two remaining ninjas tried to move away.
But, Menma wasn't going to just let them get away.
Realizing that one of them will at least leave the seal before he could kill both of them, Menma decided to jump back. Originally, he only had Lightning Release.
But during the time when he was developing the simplified versions of different Ninjutsu, he also learned Nature Transformation.
It allowed him to use all kinds of elements even if he wasn't born with them. But, it didn't mean he could use them without any restrictions.
That's why he was a bit nervous. After all, if it failed, he wouldn't be able to use any more Ninjutsu in a short period.
He clapped his hands together and took a deep breath, gathering Chakra into his mouth. He released Nature's Transformation and breath out.
[Fire Style- Great Fireball Jutsu]
Boom!
A massive fireball rushed forward. Although the fireball was only five meters wide, both of them were still in range. After all, they haven't escaped the seal and it was less than five meters wide.
The fireball was blasted at them. After the dust and smoke settled down, Menma found three bodies lying on the ground, dead.
At this moment, he wanted to shout.
Who said fire style can't kill people?
Clearly, he was able to kill two Ninjas in front of him. But, Menma was sure that these weren't Jonin. Although Jonin will also become helpless within this Seal, they wouldn't lose this easily.
That means they were just Chunin.
'Well, in Danzo's eyes, Chunin should be more than enough to kill me.'
"Argh"
Suddenly, Menma grunted in pain. He felt like he was going to lose consciousness soon. He quickly moved the jar to its original position.
[Release]
After he made the hand sign, the seal beneath him disappeared. Only then, he felt a bit better.
'Thank god, I was able to finish them with the Fireball Jutsu. My Chakra had reached less than five percent. At that moment, My Sealing Release Jutsu became invalid and even my Chakra got sealed.'
'If I had spent even a little more physical strength during that battle, I would've passed out for sure.'
Thinking so, he smiled and took out a scroll that was connected to his body. Without twenty percent of his total Chakra remaining inside his body, this Sealing Release Jutsu can't be used.
He also put the Jar, and those three Ninjas inside the scrolls. He wasn't going to leave these dead bodies on the ground. It would be easy for Konoha's ninjas to gain information from these dead bodies.
Although he was fighting for his life, he wasn't sure if Hiruzen would support him or Danzo. Not to mention, if they learned about it, then Hiruzen's reputation would suffer even more.
After finishing everything, Menma turned around and left. This time, he wasn't running since he didn't have much energy. He wanted to get far away from here so that he could rest a little bit.
He had already used the Food Pill. So, he wasn't hungry.
After walking for half an hour, he finally decided to rest and recover his Chakra.
The best way to recover Chakra was meditation so he quickly fall into a meditative state and started recovering his Chakra.
Two hours later, it was already night time but he didn't care. Just two hours of meditation had cleared his mind and refilled his Chakra, so he didn't hesitate to run out of the forest.
After all, if Danzo didn't get the information within a day, he might even send a Jonin. Right now, even if he could use the Jar's Chakra to release the Chakra Sealing Jutsu, he was in no condition to fight a Jonin.
Even special Jonin could slap him to death. Not to mention, Danzo might even send an Elite Jonin.
The way his Chakra Sealing Jutsu works is by using his own or someone's Chakra to seal the opponent's Chakra. Its principle was derived from the Reaper Death Seal where the amount of his Chakra would seal the amount of someone's soul.
Fortunately, his Chakra Sealing Jutsu could be utilized by using others' Chakra. So, he was able to use the Chakra stored inside the Jar to seal the Chakra of those Chunins.
Otherwise, it was naturally impossible to seal their Chakra with his Chakra.
This was a big difference between Partial Chakra Sealing Jutsu and Complete Chakra Sealing Jutsu.
Partial Chakra Sealing Jutsu can seal someone's Jutsu but they could break free with enough Chakra. But, Complete Chakra Sealing Jutsu once used enough Chakra can never break free unless they move out of the seal.
But, both Sealing Jutsu are interconnected with a core principle and that was to seal Chakra.
Menma ran as fast as he could. After five hours of running, he decided to sleep for two hours. Then, when it was more, he once again decided to run as fast as he could.
He was completely relying on food pills.
After three days, he finally came out of the forest and continued his journey. It was a nearly five-hour journey to reach the village where Tsunade was living.
Normally, it would be hard to find people in a village in a short time but Menma exactly knows where to search for her.
He quickly moved around the village, searching for Casino.
And, he found it in less than a few minutes.
"Boy, you can't go in." Two guards standing at the front door stopped him.
Menma looked at them and pointed at his forehead protector, saying.
"Are you sure you want to stop a Ninja?"
Those two guards looked at each other and moved aside. Even if they were adults, it didn't mean they have the power to rival Ninja especially when that Ninja was from Konoha.
Menma walked in and as soon as he walked, he saw people gathering around a desk. There were two people playing against each other. And, they were playing cards.
"Damn it, why did I lose again?"
It was no surprise for Menma to hear this voice. He walked toward the group and finally saw Tsunade holding her forehead with distress.
Next to her, Shine was standing with an almost crying face.
"Damn it, let's bet again. I won't lose this time." Tsunade shouted.
Hearing her words, the man playing against her sneered and then continued to shuffle the cards.
"Wait"
Suddenly, a voice rang from behind. Hearing this voice, everyone turned their heads and saw a little boy.
Even Tsunade and Shizune looked there, only to find Menma.
"Boy, you took such a long time to arrive here." Tsunade spoke with dissatisfaction. Then, she turned to the man shuffling the card and said.
"Come on, spread the cards!"
"Wait, wait, I also want to play." Menma quickly rushed forward. He had already exchanged money for chips. So, he was holding quite a lot of chips.
Seeing this, Tsunade couldn't help but frown.
"Boy, you are only ten. You shouldn't gamble."
"Sensei, did you forget? You started gambling when you weren't even five." Menma rolled his eyes and put the chips on the table.
As spectators, they also started whispering to each other. But, none of them came forward to stop him. Of course, during this time, Menma had already put away his Forehead protector.
Hearing his words, Tsunade suddenly felt embarrassed. She could only snort and continue playing.
The man shuffling the card looked at the boy and asked.
"Do you even know how to play?"
Hearing his words, Menma smiled and said.
"Do I look like a person who would play without knowing the game?"
