Chương 176: Chapter 176: The Deception Strike!
Nearly three-quarters of Kirigakure's Anbu forces perished at the hands of just two or three ninjas from Konohagakure.
Could Kirigakure truly triumph over such a Konohagakure?
Perhaps Kirigakure was merely a breakthrough point in this war?
But now, Hozuki Takuya had long since lost the will to ponder the village's plight.
Compared to the village's dire straits,
Hozuki Takuya felt more pain for the dozen clan members he brought and the Thunder Sword "Kiba" he had summoned.
Good ninjas all, laid to waste by one erroneous command.
Mizukage... you truly deserve to die!
Hozuki Takuya thought bitterly, forgetting that he too was one of the ninjas who had facilitated this outcome.
A fine blade it was, yet it fell into enemy hands because of his own fear of death.
Alas...
It's all over now.
Hozuki Takuya slowly closed his eyes, letting the raging thunder consume his body.
But...
In Raijin's eyes, no thunder fell from the sky, nor did it devour Hozuki Takuya.
All there was, was a resigned Hozuki Takuya slowly closing his eyes.
And his chakra?
Under the control of Raijin's Genjutsu, Hozuki Takuya's chakra was as still as dead water, without a ripple.
Using Genjutsu, Raijin deceived Hozuki Takuya's eyes, making him see thunder descending from the heavens.
Using Genjutsu, Raijin deceived Hozuki Takuya's ears, making him hear the sound of thunder.
Using Genjutsu, Raijin deceived Hozuki Takuya's mind, making him believe his chakra had been mobilized.
However, while all these senses were false, the feeling of being struck by lightning was real.
It was a casual bolt of lightning thrown by Raijin.
The voltage wasn't high, just a few hundred volts, but it was enough to claim Hozuki Takuya's life without issue.
And this was Raijin's understanding of Genjutsu, a primary deception.
No need for bizarre scenes or unique spaces.
Just a slight deviation in an established process is enough to achieve the desired outcome.
In this process, the victim doesn't even realize they've been caught in Genjutsu, and that is true Genjutsu.
Raijin stepped forward and took the Thunder Sword "Kiba" from Hozuki Takuya's hands.
After a thought, Raijin stepped back and created a shadow clone to search for the summoning scroll hidden on Hozuki Takuya.
"Little fool."
Glancing at the fallen Hozuki Takuya, Raijin briskly moved to Tsunade's side.
"Congratulations, you've acquired another suitable Ninja Sword."
Orochimaru glanced at the Thunder Sword "Kiba" in Raijin's hand and said with a light chuckle.
"Yes, I'm pleased."
Raijin nodded at the words, slinging the Thunder Sword "Kiba" across his back.
Thus, Raijin's back now bore three swords, with the Kusanagi Sword nestled between the pair of Thunder Swords "Kiba."
"It would be even more delightful if the two Thunder Swords 'Kiba' could be fused into one."
Raijin mused, speaking to Orochimaru.
At the same time, Raijin winked at Orochimaru, frantically signaling for him to think of a solution.
Normally, Raijin could use Raiton: Metal Refining to process metals.
But the Thunder Sword: Kiba...
How should I put it?
The principle of Raiton: Metal Refining is to heat and melt the metal by generating heat when a strong enough electric current encounters resistance.
And the Thunder Sword: Kiba...
If thunder were attached to the Thunder Sword: Kiba, it wouldn't generate heat; it might even amplify the thunder attached to the blade by Raijin.
After all, this is a sword that can elementalize its wielder...
Of course, an electric current striking the air might also generate heat.
But it definitely wouldn't be enough to melt the Thunder Sword: Kiba.
So the only way would be to simply create high temperatures to melt the Thunder Sword: Kiba.
This might be possible with Suisei's power.
Raijin remembered that Suisei's Fire Release seemed quite formidable.
"After the war is over, if you trust me, Raijin-kun, I might be able to help."
A slight smile appeared on Orochimaru's face as he spoke to Raijin.
"If you manage that, I'll treat you to a meal."
Raijin's face lit up with joy at the words, responding to Orochimaru.
It was at this moment that the summoning scrolls for the other six Ninja Swords were also brought over by the shadow clone.
"Now, Konohagakure can use this to form an elite unit."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile, looking at the six Ninja Swords summoned by Raijin.
"Oh? What kind of elite unit?"
Just then, the voice of Senju Tobirama suddenly rang out. Raijin, about to say something, looked up in surprise at Senju Tobirama.
At the same time, his hand subconsciously covered the Flying Thunder God Kunai in his embrace.
If he teleported using the Flying Thunder God Kunai, shouldn't Senju Tobirama appear in his arms?
How magical...
"Idiot!"
Seeing the surprise in Raijin's eyes, Senju Tobirama easily guessed Raijin's thoughts.
A few black lines appeared on his forehead, and Senju Tobirama couldn't help but step forward and knock on Raijin's forehead.
"You better learn quickly!"
"Alright."
Raijin chuckled and stood up, looking at Senju Tobirama.
"I'm here to tell you that you need to go support the Land of Whirlpools right away. Don't be rash when you get there. First, help stabilize the situation in the Land of Whirlpools. Once the main forces arrive, launch a counterattack together."
Senju Tobirama instructed Raijin.
"Sigh..."
Raijin sighed somewhat helplessly. Honestly, even though it didn't seem like he used many techniques, Raijin was really tired.
But no matter, by releasing the Yin Seal and entering Sage Mode, Raijin could still fight another high-level battle.
"Raijin is very tired now. He will depart after three hours."
Tsunade frowned slightly and came to Raijin's side, speaking to Senju Tobirama.
"That's right, the techniques Raijin-kun just used consumed a lot of chakra."
Orochimaru also spoke up to Senju Tobirama.
"If your grandma hears what you said today, you can expect a spanking when you get back."
Senju Tobirama let out a resigned chuckle at Tsunade's words.
"Without Raijin, the Land of Whirlpools would have to wait at least three days for support. They must have considered this before asking for help," Tsunade said, standing her ground firmly.
"Hmph, not too shabby. Rest up and get yourself back in shape."
Senju Tobirama huffed lightly, turning his gaze to Raijin.
"Alright, I'll set off as soon as possible."
Raijin nodded in response to Senju Tobirama.
"When you leave isn't up to him, nor is it up to you. I'm the doctor here, so it's up to me,"
Tsunade declared on the spot.
