Bloodline Limit - Chapter 492

“Shikamaru, you’re not cunning enough. The absence of loopholes doesn’t mean we can’t create them. And even if we can’t create loopholes, until the very last moment… no, even at the very last moment, we can’t give up. Let’s do this together.”

Shikaku showed a slight smile, and Shikamaru was also infected. The despondent feelings he had were immediately cast aside.

“Shadow Imitation Jutsu.” Under the cover of numerous ninjutsu attacks, Shikaku and Shikamaru’s Shadow Imitation succeeded.

“We got him. It’s a chance! Sage Art: Cho Odama Rasengan!” Jiraiya immediately raised a huge Rasengan and struck directly. It immediately turned into a massive ball of light and exploded. However, after the rolling dust dispersed, what met their eyes was an unharmed Ryoha, while Tsunade and the others had not made any move from start to finish.

“How could this be?” Shikamaru widened his eyes. He could be absolutely certain that they had captured him. The power of their Shadow Imitation when father and son combined was definitely not as simple as one plus one equals two.

“Shikamaru, your strength is still so weak. You haven’t made much progress. I’m standing here letting you bind me. Even after being bound by you, you can’t hurt me if you don’t struggle to get free. You’re really useless.”

Ryoha shook his head, his eyes rotating. Shikamaru’s movements were immediately uncontrollable and he was pulled over. Shikaku wanted to stop, but he found that the Shadow Imitation had succeeded, and he couldn’t control Ryoha to perform the same action. Instead, it was Ryoha who controlled him after the successful Shadow Imitation Jutsu. Now that Ryoha didn’t move, he couldn’t move either. This was the weakness of the Shadow Imitation Jutsu.

If the binding succeeded, one could indeed make the person perform the same actions. But if there was no strength to control those who were bound, then one would follow the actions of the one being bound. Therefore, Shikaku could only watch Shikamaru being pulled over, too late to try to release the Shadow Imitation Jutsu.

“Shikamaru, feeling your powerlessness now? Have you experienced the importance of strength? I chose to emphasize strength and use wisdom as a supplement. I chose this direction from an early age because my wisdom isn’t outstanding. Even if my wisdom were higher than yours, I would still make the same choice. So, I wish you good luck in surviving.”

Ryoha lightly punched, but this gentle punch felt like being hit by a rocket to Shikamaru. He flew backwards like a launched missile, knocking over a large pile of buildings, life or death unknown.

Other Konoha ninjas did try to come to the rescue, but all their ninjutsu attacks were blocked by the dark light emanating from Ryoha’s body. Even the enlarged versions of Dentsu and Denzou were knocked out by Ryoha’s control over the darkness, and now Ryoha was just playing around without making any moves.

“Shadow Stitching.” Seeing his son’s angry face, Shikaku immediately used Shadow Stitching, a technique with strong destructive power. However, this technique surprisingly couldn’t pierce through Ryoha’s skin.

“My god, what kind of monster is this? His ninjutsu, genjutsu, taijutsu, and Bloodline Limit are all extremely terrifying. His body can’t even be penetrated by the Shadow Stitching of the Jonin clan leader.”

Izumo looked at Ryoha in horror. It couldn’t be described as anything less than a monster. Was his defense alone so terrifying? Ryoha was actually challenging the entire village of Konoha alone, and he hadn’t moved from start to finish. He didn’t receive any damage at all, playing around completely.”

“On the other hand, in Konoha, people were getting injured and killed every moment. The lucky ones were promptly rescued, but the unlucky ones died immediately. This was truly difficult to accept. Since the birth of the Five Great Ninja Villages up until now, there had never been someone so terrifying.

“Is it really strange? Didn’t I mention that Dark Release isn’t just a simple dark-based ninjutsu? Dark Release is not formed solely by dark ninjutsu. It’s a combination of physical, mental, chakra, eye techniques, and all other aspects of ninjutsu. Only when they are combined is it true Dark Release. My darkness-imbued is not so easily broken. Just like before, I intentionally controlled the Dark Guard to let your attacks hit me, but your attacks were also ineffective.”

Ryoha once again used the Black Darkness Vortex, evidently intending to instantly kill Shikaku, just like he did with Shikamaru. However, Shikaku was very important; perhaps letting him continue to observe and oversee the overall situation might have unexpected effects. Although this was only Jiraiya’s fantasy, he couldn’t let Ryoha succeed.

“Sage Art: Fire Release – Great Fireball.” Seeing Jiraiya’s technique, many ninjas jumped away. A rolling sea of boiling oil was no joke.

“Kotoamatsukami!” Danzo also knew that this was a life or death situation. It was not only for Konoha but also for himself. Therefore, he couldn’t care too much and revealed the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, using the Kotoamatsukami technique.

“For many people, the Kotoamatsukami technique is indeed a terrifying ability. But if you use it on me, it’s simply a childish and laughable act.” Ryoha’s Dark Rinne Sharingan didn’t even need to rotate. After looking at Danzo, Danzo immediately covered his eyes and cried out in pain. The technique failed as soon as it was used. The power of the Kotoamatsukami didn’t even touch Ryoha; it was directly corroded and annihilated by a dark eye force, causing Danzo to suffer a huge backlash.

“I don’t know what Danzo’s Mangekyo Sharingan technique is, but it didn’t have any effect.” Jiraiya was becoming more and more anxious. Before the boiling oil and fire sea touched Ryoha, a huge wooden structure appeared in front of Ryoha. After the boiling oil and fire sea touched the wooden structure, it disappeared into the wooden structure in the blink of an eye. The rolling sea of boiling oil and fire completely vanished in an instant.

“Damn, Tobirama’s space-time barrier is being used so skillfully by him. When Tobirama transferred the Tailed Beast Ball back then, it took nearly six seconds. But such a huge rolling sea of boiling oil and fire was actually completely transferred in an instant.”

Jiraiya’s face was extremely unpleasant. All of these were legendary ninjutsu of heroes who were supposed to have already died in Konoha. Apart from the original developers of these techniques, none of the descendants of Konoha could use them. But the enemies of Konoha had learned all the legendary ninjutsu that Konoha had already lost. What Wood Release, what Hiraishin no Jutsu, they had learned all of them, and they were even more terrifying than the original users.

“Smack!”

Danzo didn’t know when he had arrived at Ryoha’s back and suddenly firmly locked Ryoha. At the same time, he shouted at the people of Konoha, “Use your strongest attacks!” Obviously, Danzo still had a trump card.

“Is Danzo that great? Forget it, that old fox must have a reason for doing this. Sage Art: Fire Release – Great Fireball Annihilation Spiral!” Jiraiya immediately used his most powerful Sage Art. The huge spiral ball burning with intense flames directly covered both Danzo and Ryoha within the attack range. Then, Jiraiya immediately retreated, and other ninjas threw out various ninjutsu without any regard. Of course, Fire Release and Wind Release techniques were the majority.”
