Chapter 515 A Slash Towards the Future
Chapter 515 A Blade Slashed Towards the Future
In the distance, "White Fang" slowly used the gleaming white bone sword to support his broken body.
At this moment, his body was covered with fine, spiderweb-like cracks. He raised his head and looked at the vortex that was slowly and steadily approaching him.
"Tsk." He clicked his tongue in annoyance, pulled the bone sword out of the ground, and swung it sharply in the back of his hand, slashing at the empty space behind him.
The air was torn apart by the sword's blade, creating visible wind pressure.
Boom!
The ground behind him bulged dozens of meters up under the impact, and dust billowed into the sky.
Isn't it just a seal?
"White Fang" stopped expending energy to heal his injuries, gripped the long, sharp bone sword in his hand, and a sinister look gradually rose on his usually lazy face.
If I don't cut you off here, I will never make any further progress in the future!
boom!!
"White Fang" suddenly unleashed his aura, and the cracks on his already collapsing body spread and deepened wildly, like porcelain about to shatter.
But at the same time, an even more violent and corrosive sharpness suddenly spread out from him.
Everything was poured into that bone sword, and the blade emitted a sharp hum as if it could not bear the weight. Its sharpness was so intense that it hurt the eyes and one could not look directly at it.
Even more horrifying, the bone sword began to merge with the arm that held it, as if the sword had become an extension of his arm, truly becoming a part of him.
This guy is burning his own soul.
"...
'
Feeling the threatening sensation, as if needles were slowly pricking his brow, "Whirlpool" paused slightly as he walked towards White Fang.
The four chains binding her limbs were taut and emitted a low hum.
Bang!
The figure of "Vortex" vanished from its spot in an instant, leaving behind a ripple that broke the sound barrier. It burst forth with terrifying speed, turning into a blurry black line that rushed straight towards "White Fang".
However, it was too late.
呲!
The hand that "White Fang" wielded the sword, and the sword he swung, both vanished without a trace.
All that could be seen was a silvery-white crescent moon shaped like a fan, which pierced through the earth, air, and even light in front of it.
Wherever it passed, the ground cracked open with bottomless ravines, completely splitting the already ravaged island in two, and slashing towards the distant vortex.
"Have they already started recklessly flaunting their power?"
"Vortex" remained expressionless, raising his arms towards "White Fang" in the distance, crimson light gathering and compressing in front of his palms.
—Cero Flash.
Hiss!
Two crimson beams of light shot out from her palms.
The two jet-black chains wrapped around her arms also rotated and extended out, spiraling around the two beams of illusory light, intertwining and twisting together.
The power of the two Cero flashes was forcibly compressed and fused, transforming into a dark red spear whose destructive power increased exponentially, crashing head-on into the silver-white slash unleashed by "White Fang"—
Boom!!
The chains wrapped around the dark red spear were the first to come into contact with the silver-white crescent moon. They were shattered the moment they made contact, but at the same time, the power of the strike was also consumed.
"White Fang's" slash, with its unparalleled sharpness, forcefully cleaved the dark red spear from end to end. However, at the moment of cleaving it, the slash itself exhausted its power and dissipated with a bang.
No, it didn't disperse, it exploded.
The dissipated silvery light did not disappear, but instead transformed into countless finer, sharper blades of light that shot out in all directions.
The space was marked with countless clearly visible tiny cracks.
Following that slash, an even finer, more refined silver-white line, almost imperceptible, was reflected in the vortex's eyes.
"White Fang" didn't just swing his sword once, but in an instant, he unleashed two consecutive slashes.
Its speed was so fast that it completely bypassed the vortex's eyes, like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, silent and stealthy.
The strike instantly cleaved through the space that hadn't been reinforced in time, disappearing into it.
A sharp, piercing sound, like shattering glass, echoed behind the vortex.
Behind her, where there was nothing, a narrow rift tore open, and the slash shot out from the rift, landing directly on the "vortex".
puff!
"Vortex" subconsciously shifted its body, but this proved futile in the face of this attack.
A thin, silvery line swept across her body from behind and then flew out in front of her, leaving a smooth wound from her left neck to her right shoulder blade.
Her head, separated from her torso by the diagonal cut, lost its support and slowly slid down.
But the next moment—
Click click click!
At the point where the severed head and torso broke, countless thin, jet-black chains emerged from the two breaks, forcibly connecting the head and torso.
"Whirlpool" raised her hands and steadily supported the sides of her head, which was sliding down, before putting her head back in its original position.
The wound that had almost cleaved her in two healed and disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if the scene had never happened, with only her severed red hair slowly falling down.
Everyone, including the other members of the Espada, thought that her only skill was sealing techniques.
But in fact, whether in life or after death, her greatest strength was her vitality.
"Vortex" glanced behind him, where two of the three remaining chains had been severed; those chains represented "silence" and "prohibition of concealment."
Only the black chain that symbolized "no interaction with the outside world" remained unbroken by the previous strike.
"6
'
"Vortex" frowned, turned his gaze away and looked at the figure in the distance.
At this moment, the aura emanating from "White Fang" had completely dissipated. He bent one knee slightly, maintaining the posture of swinging his sword forward. The bone sword in his hand was covered with cracks and would shatter at the slightest touch.
The previous severe injuries, coupled with the soul-burning strike just now, had completely drained him, leaving only this cracked, empty shell.
"It's over," she said, shaking her head.
No matter what price "White Fang" pays, if he fails to break the chain that blocks the outside world, then everything he does is meaningless.
However, at this moment—
"It reflects my ugliness, my jealousy."
A hoarse voice reached my ears from afar, as cold as if it were reading one's own epitaph.
"Vortex" felt as if a pair of eyes had opened behind her, their malicious gaze fixed intently on her very existence.
"Vortex" tensed abruptly, twisting its waist and turning around sharply, its arm slamming down towards the location of the eyes it sensed behind it—
Bang!
The arm swung away, producing only a sonic boom, and there was nothing behind it.
But she saw the direction from which the sound came, and saw Kakashi holding a short sword in the distance.
At that moment, the "vortex" generated an incredibly clear yet eerie feeling.
She seemed to be standing on a road.
A road that stretches endlessly, with no end in sight, and on both sides, pitch-black darkness that seems to swallow everything.
The road was filled with people, densely packed and seemingly endless, stretching forward and backward to the horizon and the end of the road.
"Each one is a vortex," only with slight differences in their postures.
They are the vortex of the past, the vortex of the future, and she exists in every moment of her past and future.
This was supposed to be a path that belonged only to her.
But at this moment, among the countless figures of "her", Kakashi stood silently behind one of the vortexes, like a ghost that should not exist.
He gripped the short sword, which gleamed with an ominous light, and swung it towards the back of the vortex in front of him—
The eerie feeling vanished, and the scene before my eyes suddenly shattered and disappeared.
"—What was that just now?"
Looking at the familiar scenery around him, "Whirlpool" sensed himself and found that he was completely unharmed, and the wound that "White Fang" had just cut open had already healed completely.
Everything is normal.
"Uzumaki" relaxed slightly, looking at Kakashi in the distance again, not understanding what had just happened.
But at that moment—
puff!
As if appearing out of thin air, a blade struck her directly, and the black chain behind her, which symbolized "prohibition of interaction with the outside world," was also slashed by the invisible attack.
Click! Thud!
The chains that bound this place from the outside world were severed, and the "vortex" stumbled forward before it could react.
A look of astonishment gradually appeared on that face that had remained expressionless throughout.
What?
What happened?
When was that stab?
"Whoosh—whoosh—"
In the distance, Kakashi remained in the stance of wielding his sword, his face ashen, beads of cold sweat forming on his forehead, his breathing rapid, and his arm gripping the sword trembling slightly.
This is the true power of "jealousy".
He can step on other people's future paths and inflict damage on future enemies, and his current limit is five seconds later.
He just slashed at the vortex that would appear five seconds later.
However, looking at the vortex in the distance that had only staggered slightly after being struck, and at the White Fang that had already lost all life, Kakashi's face showed a helpless bitter smile.
Too late.
Even if he severed the chain that sealed off the space, what would be the point now?
"White Fang, who could cleave space," is dead, and Obito, who possessed space-time ninjutsu, is also dead. They have lost their means of escaping this place.
No, perhaps there is still one chance?
Kakashi instinctively looked at Obito's corpse, then at the wide-open Mangekyou Sharingan.
However, the moment this thought arose in his mind...
呲!
With the vortex no longer blocking interaction with the outside world, the black moon in the sky began to swirl and rotate, as if being stirred by a hand.
The initially bewildered "Vortex" suddenly raised its head, looked at the black moon, and the bewilderment on its face was instantly replaced by anger.
Has someone broken the seal connecting the virtual world and the ninja world?!
"court death!"
The two cold words she uttered carried a chilling killing intent that sent shivers down one's spine.
boom!!
Without even glancing at Kakashi again, she stomped her foot hard on the ground, causing it to collapse and create a huge crater before transforming into a streak of light that disappeared into the black moon.
As the vortex departed, the suffocating, terrifying pressure that had lingered in the air finally receded like a tide.
Thump—thump—
The feeling of exhaustion after surviving the ordeal instantly overwhelmed everyone.
The allied ninjas collapsed to the ground in unison, panting heavily as if trying to expel all their fear; their clothes were already soaked with sweat.
"He survived?"
"Haaah—whoosh—how terrifying—"
"They actually survived that monster."
Just then, Hashirama Senju appeared beside Kakashi.
"Now is not the time to relax."
He looked up at the black moon, his brow furrowed, and turned to Kakashi beside him, saying, "Although I don't know how that guy was injured, the price he paid must have been considerable, right?"
"If we allow that monster to escape and return to the ninja world, I'm afraid—"
He had no intention of seizing command. Although he was the former First Hokage, he knew very well that he was now just a dead man who had temporarily returned using forbidden techniques.
Lacking an understanding of the complex situation in the current ninja world, entrusting the judgment and decision-making to this junior in front of him is the right choice at this time.
Upon hearing this, Kakashi took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the slight relief he felt from surviving the ordeal, and nodded: "I understand, First Hokage."
He turned his head, his gaze sweeping over the allied ninjas, some sitting, some lying, all disheveled and exhausted, and shouted, "Everyone, treat your wounds, take your rations! We don't have time to rest!"
Upon hearing the order, the allied ninjas mustered their spirits and, without a word of complaint, gritted their teeth and got to work. Hashirama Senju also didn't say much and immediately formed hand seals.
"Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique!"
With a low shout from Hashirama Senju, his still-powerful chakra surged forth from his body, the ground trembled, and several thick wooden dragons burst forth from the earth.
"Hurry up!"
Once everyone had boarded the wooden dragon, Hashirama Senju gave a reminder, and the wooden dragon roared, its massive body swaying and twisting as it carried everyone into the sky, heading straight for the black moon.
Meanwhile, in the outside world, two towering giants stood majestically atop the ruins of Grell's Fortress.
One was entirely purple, the other entirely blue; their shadows were enough to engulf the earth, and their terrifying aura assaulted the nerves of Uchiha Yakumi and the others around them.
"Hmph, ignorant and fearless brat."
Madara Uchiha crossed his arms, and his Complete Susanoo slowly raised his hand to grasp the katana, which was larger than a mountain, hanging at his waist.
*Crack!*
At the same time, Sasuke Uchiha's Complete Susanoo grasped the giant sword at his waist and drew it—
Bang!Bang!
The two giants took a step forward, causing the earth to crack and the ground to crumble. The wind pressure generated by their massive bodies swept the surrounding rocks and broken walls into the sky like withered leaves!
With muscles bulging in his arms, he gripped the greatsword tightly and slashed upwards, cutting through the air with a deafening shriek, and then—slash!
boom!!
The two giant swords clashed solidly between the two giants, and a surging shockwave exploded outwards from the point of impact, obliterating everything in its path.
The Grell ruins, already reduced to ruins, suffered a truly devastating catastrophe.
Whether it was the remaining ancient stone pillars or the foundations buried deep underground, they all crumbled and vaporized instantly like sandcastles, and the clouds in the sky were completely dispersed, revealing the deep night sky behind them.
