Chapter 255 Zen Kong Makes His Debut
Battlefield in the Land of Stone.
Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, was surrounded by more than a hundred Iwagakure (Iwagakure) members.
He is using the power of a Jinchūriki in a textbook manner.
The most powerful attack method of a Jinchūriki is undoubtedly the Tailed Beast Ball.
All it takes is to build a high platform for the Jinchūriki; under layers of protection, the Jinchūriki can destroy everything.
At this stage, everyone can only dodge the Tailed Beast Balls; no one has yet appeared who can withstand them head-on.
After observing from the air for a moment, Deidara landed.
He was rather bored, as he was the only one in the Hidden Rock Village who could fly and observe remotely.
So the task of reporting directions was left to him.
"Hmph, it has absolutely no artistic sense..." Deidara muttered.
Although he was working diligently, he disregarded the bombardment-style advance of the Tailed Beast Balls.
"Southwest, target 3 kilometers. The Sunagakure team is retreating..."
There's a reason Deidara is being so obedient this time; he's thoroughly mastered the three attribute transformations.
He'll go back and learn Dust Release from Onoki; he needs to show off his skills now.
Han had gotten used to Deidara's strange remarks, which stemmed from his blond hair and chuunibyou personality.
However, Deidara was busy working, so he didn't bother with it.
He was standing on a stone pillar that had been raised using earth magic, and it was several tens of meters high.
At this height, there are no obstructions, making it easy to shoot several kilometers away.
After being tricked, Han obediently became a cannon fodder.
A giant tailed beast head appeared behind him, and a tailed beast ball gathered in front of Han.
"call out!"
A Tailed Beast Ball flew out.
A moment later, a loud rumbling sound was heard.
The ground shook, and the people from Sunagakure began to retreat.
Such long-range bombing naturally lacks accuracy.
However, the risk gradually increases after multiple revisions.
Chiyo led one team, and Maki led another team; the two teams were not far apart.
They retreated for a distance before stopping.
"It seems that Iwagakure is planning to force us back to the Land of Wind."
Seeing the bombardment of the Tailed Beast Balls, Yekura naturally understood Iwagakure's intentions.
She looked at Chiyo, who calmly led the Sunagakure people to retreat.
"Since Akatsuki has taken on this task, we'll just wait and see."
Chiyo's emotions were complicated. The two hadn't exchanged a single word since Sasori returned.
However, from the exchange of glances between Chiyo and Sasori, she realized that Sasori seemed to be deliberately siding with the people of Sunagakure.
To be precise, it was to show her that he was the one who killed the Third Kazekage.
call out!
Another Tailed Beast Ball fell from afar.
The people of Sunagakure retreated once again.
The Five-Tailed Han cannot launch Tailed Beast Balls without restraint.
However, Sunagakure did not dare to stay in one place for too long, or even build a camp.
The reason they retreated so slowly was that they wanted to hold back the people of Iwagakure, just as Kakuzu had said.
Sasori and Kakuzu did not travel with the people from Sunagakure.
Instead, they went in a separate direction.
After all, if you put all your eggs in one basket, they'll break and ruin everything.
Who knows, the Tailed Beast Ball might just happen by sheer luck and explode right next to you, that would be terrible.
Kakuzu watched as yet another Tailed Beast Ball landed nearby: "I wonder when the leader will arrive."
Sasori withdrew his gaze from Sunagakure: "Will the leader intervene this time?"
Kakuzu looked at the Iwagakure formation in the distance: "In this situation, only the leader should be able to handle it."
"Shu...shu..."
The loud flapping of wings startled Sasori and Kakuzu.
Xiao Nan has arrived.
A pair of enormous wings flew through the sky, tracing a beautiful arc, and landed beside Kakuzu and Sasori.
Kakuzu looked around: "Where is the leader?"
Xiao Nan shook her head slightly: "Payne won't be coming this time."
Kakuzu didn't understand:
"Didn't I already report the situation here? Besides the leader, who can handle the Jinchūriki?"
Xiao Nan looked behind her and saw a figure slowly walking towards her.
This person was not wearing a red robe with fiery clouds, but rather an old gray robe, and was holding a nine-ringed tin staff.
He was bald with a white beard and looked quite old, with a kind face but bright eyes.
"This is our newest member, Master Chankong."
Zenkong approached the two and bowed to them.
"This humble monk, Chan Kong, greets the two benefactors."
Kakuzu and Sasori were both a little confused. What did that mean? An organization that makes a living by killing people could recruit a monk?
Konan seems to know about Kakuzu and Sasori's doubts:
“Master Zenkū is proficient in sealing techniques and does not accept other missions; he only deals with Jinchūriki.”
Kakuzu and Sasori both looked somewhat surprised. There are quite a few people in the ninja world who know sealing techniques, but to say that they are proficient in them is an understatement.
Aside from the priestesses of the Land of Demons, there are only the inheritors of the Uzumaki clan.
The system of magical power and chakra used by priestesses is slightly different, and it is basically passed down in a single lineage, unknown to outsiders.
The most famous technique of the Uzumaki clan is the Four Symbols Seal. Although Konoha also obtained the Four Symbols Seal, those who mastered it basically all died.
Where did this Zen Master Kong come from?
The two looked at Chan Kong's monk's robes and found them increasingly strange.
Not only is it old-fashioned, but its design is also different from those in the ninja world.
Kakuzu tentatively asked, "Master, you're not from around here, are you?"
Zen Kong spoke calmly: "This humble monk comes from the far east."
Far East?
What Master Chankong said was as good as nothing.
But at least one thing is confirmed: Zenku is indeed not from the ninja world.
Scorpion didn't care where Zen Kong came from; he only cared about Zen Kong's strength.
"Master Chankong, could you demonstrate your abilities so we can cooperate more easily?"
Zenkong placed his right hand in a gesture of respect on his chest and said, "That's how it is."
He planted his left staff into the ground, then joined his left and right hands together to form a meditation mudra.
A seal materialized out of thin air where Zen Kong was, directly encompassing the group of people.
Kakuzu felt a sudden heaviness all over his body, and his chakra immediately slowed down, with the transmission speed decreasing by 30%.
Sasori, standing next to him, was in an even worse situation, as he controlled his body using chakra threads.
The reduced chakra transfer speed by 30% made Sasori's speed as slow as that of an old man on his deathbed.
Xiao Nan's body suddenly sank.
Both Kakuzu and Sasori showed expressions of horror in their eyes.
The seal appeared out of thin air, and the seal was not an ordinary sealing method.
This was just a small test; others didn't even have to lift a finger.
"That's enough...that's enough, Master Chankong."
Kakuzu quickly spoke up.
With a single gesture, Zen Emptiness retracted the hand seal, and all the mudras retracted back into the body.
The barrier vanished instantly.
Everyone present felt a sense of relief.
In fact, Zen Kong's sealing technique is a combination of Qian Yao's Four Symbols Sealing Technique and the sealing technique of the Witch lineage, along with other sealing techniques he knows.
Aside from not knowing how to use the spacetime seal, Qianyao knows almost all other sealing techniques.
The only difference is the outward appearance when it is used.
In essence, a talisman is merely a medium for leveraging external energy with its own.
Appearances are actually very easy to disguise.
