Shikamaru quickly decided to become the main attacker because he had some experience dealing with these. He injected the chakra into the soles of his feet, rushed at the brothers at full speed, and formed a hand seal.
"Konoha Hiden: Kage–Kubishibari no Jutsu!" a long black shadow extended from Shikamaru's feet and raced towards the brothers.
"Shadows? You're from the Nara clan." The brothers looked at the shadows with some surprise, and recognized Shikamaru's identity. They've been Jonin's for a while, and learned a little about the various clans in Konoha and their abilities.
However, they didn't have much time to fight back, as Shikamaru had already come to them, and they had no choice but to jump.
"You want to escape?" Shikamaru formed a hand seal again, and the shadow on the ground suddenly stood out and turned into spikes.
Bang!
The brothers were a little higher off the ground, and the shadows were about to pierce them, but at the last moment, they punched each other in the chest and flew back upside down in opposite directions.
"It's dangerous!" said the brothers, after flying upside down, and landed on the ground, rubbing their chests. Shikamaru's speed surprised them a little, beyond the level he should have at the moment, equivalent to the strength oft the Jonin's.
"You're pretty strong, huh?" the older brother looked at Shikamaru with a hint of suprise, but his expression changed after seeing the sneer on Shikamaru's face.
"I'll give you my body, Shingen." Shingen who was about to act, was stopped by Ino, she gave him a trusting look, and then pointed at the eldest brother.
"Wait a minute—"
"The Mind Transfer Jutsu is complete!" Shingen wanted to say something, but Ino had already completed her Jutsu, and her body fell into his arms.
What's going on, brother? Asked the younger brother with a worried expression when he saw his brother remained motionless.
"It's okay... I'm fine—" his brother assured, his worry quickly dissipating. However, before he could plan his next move, he heard the sound of a gust of wind cutting.
He hurriedly retreated, avoiding a deadly attack at the last minute, leaving only a red thread that almost cut the throat of the younger brother.
"Brother... You—" the younger brother looked at his older brother with fearful eyes, almost killed by the sudden attack.
"It didn't hit!!" Ino cursed as she took control of the brother's body as she nearly defeated him with a surprise attack.
"You're not my brother... That girl, she is from the Yamanaka Clan." the younger brother looked at Ino who was unconscious in Shingen's arms and immediately understood what was happening.
He recognized the Mind Transfer Jutsu, and his brother must have been controlled by this girl.
"How dare you!!" Anger flashed in the young brother's eyes, how long had he been tricked like this.
"No..." Shikamaru had a shocked expression on his face when he saw the younger brother's curse mark change, his skin turned gray an a horn protruded from his head. His arms were thick like a tree stump, and two wings grew from his back.
The elder brother also seemed to be affected by the changes in his brother, and the mark on his neck also lit up, while Ino, who was controlling him, suddenly felt a force acting on her consciousness, and a man with black hair, a long tongue, pale skin and snake-like eyes appeared in front of her.
Ino suddenly woke up and vomited blood, her face was slightly pale, and she realized that it was Orochimaru who had broken her control.
The elder brothers body also began to change, and a horn also grew on his head, and two wings appeared on his back.
Boom!! The two brothers released a huge amount of chakra.
"This chakra... Their strength is no less than that of a Elite Jonin!" Shikamaru looked at the two brothers who had turned into monsters.
The curse mark greatly increases the user's strength, and even without the cursed mark the two brothers are still Jonin, and now with the buff of the curse mark, they have reached the level of a Elite Jonin.
"Shingen, take Ino first, call for reinforcements, I'll hold them down!!" Shikamaru knew that the situation was dangerous, but as the captain, it was his duty to protect his teammates. He is not a coward, and even if things get tricky, he would rather die than leave his comrades and run away alone.
"Shingen, leave me here, we stop them together, you go and call reinforcements!" Ino gritted her teeth and stood up, she would never let Shikamaru die here, she wanted to fight with him.
"Ino... This is not a suggestion—"
"Don't stop me Shikamaru, you know what I've decided once... I'm not going to back down..."
"You..... Whatever you..... You can do whatever you want....." Shikamaru wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Ino. She looked at him with a smile, her face pale.
"You're so annoying..." Shikamaru stopped trying to persuade Ino anymore, because he knew there was no point in saying anything more.
This girl will never change her decision, but his hearth feels warm, and with such a partner, he really doesn't want to lose.
"Haha! Get ready for death!!!" the two brothers said hoarsely, a voice that added a touch of fear to everyone who heard it.
Ino gritted her teeth and walked towards Shikamaru, her steps staggering, but at this moment, a figure passed by her, with the usual indifferent expression on his face.
"Shingen ...." Both Shikamaru and Ino were surprised to see Shingen standing in front of them, with their backs to them, looking at the two brothers.
"Stand back a little." Shingen's face did not change, and Shingen said softly with his back to Ino and Shikamaru, without the slightest fear in his tone.
"Haha! There is actually a small character....." Seeing Shingen standing in front of them, the two brothers laughed and deliberately laughed at Shingen, for them, he was the most useless person.
He hadn't done anything since the beginning, and now he's pretending to be strong, and they all laughed.
Keeping his composure, Shingen put his left hand in his pocket, took out a very small dagger, and placed it in front of him.
"You actually look down on us?" The two brothers felt humiliated at the sight of the toy dagger in his hand, no one had looked down on them so much before.
"This ...." Even Ino and Shikamaru were surprised, not understanding what Shingen was doing.
They had expected him to pull out his big Sword from his back, but instead he pulled out a toy dagger.
"Don't stop me brother..... I'm going to tear him to pieces...." The younger brother said angrily to his brother, Shingen became his prey, and no one could save him anymore.
