"You're Gekko Chizan, right? I'm Jinlin. Since you summoned me, I might as well stretch out a bit."
"The enemy is from Sunagakure. Make sure you don't hit the wrong people! They're the ones in yellow!"
"Yeah yeah, got it! So naggy!"
It was Chizan's first time summoning, so he wasn't exactly reassured. After all, he didn't know much about this summon—what if she caused trouble for their own side?
Jinlin responded unhappily, and then her massive golden python body started to move.
Fifty meters long, her full-speed charge defied conventional description.
In the blink of an eye, Jinlin was already tearing across the battlefield.
With her powerful body, ordinary ninjutsu and ninja tools were no threat. Her body was her best weapon.
A simple charge was often enough to crush Sunagakure ninja into pieces.
"Damn it! Rasa! Stop that snake!"
"We can't let her rampage on the battlefield!"
As soon as Chiyo saw the golden python rush in, she immediately ordered Rasa.
Only Magnet Release could counter such a massive summoning beast.
Rasa didn't need Chiyo's reminder—he was already charging toward the golden python.
"Magnet Release: Gold Dust Wave!"
A massive wave of golden dust instantly flooded the battlefield.
The gold dust surged toward the golden python, forcibly binding her in place with its controlling force.
"What the hell is this?"
"Get off me!"
Just as Jinlin was having her fun, she suddenly felt her body being restrained and became irritated.
Her massive body began thrashing left and right, trying to shake off the gold dust.
"Not a chance!"
"Magnet Release: Gold Dust Imperial Funeral!"
Rasa was under heavy pressure, but he knew that if the golden python broke free, the battlefield would descend into chaos.
He had no choice but to increase his output. The sky filled with gold dust, forming countless sharp spikes that shot toward the python.
While Rasa was fully focused on Jinlin...
Gekko Chizan had already arrived on the battlefield.
The six technique-marked kunai he'd thrown earlier were spread across six key positions.
"Hehe..."
"It's showtime!"
Chizan let out a wicked chuckle and activated Transparent Release, charging into the crowd.
A Sunagakure ninja was in the middle of casting a Wind Release technique. Massive blades of wind were rapidly forming.
But he didn't sense the danger creeping up behind him at all.
"Konoha-Style Taijutsu Secret Technique!"
"Thousand Years of Death!"
A dull sound came from behind him.
A second later, the Sunagakure ninja's rear was struck hard, and with a scream, he was sent flying toward the center of the battlefield!
"Ah!!"
"Ugh!"
He didn't even hit the ground before a flurry of shuriken and kunai riddled him like a sieve.
"That's one..."
With nearly ten thousand people on the battlefield, one casualty went unnoticed.
Chizan chuckled and moved to the next target.
Scream, launch, mid-air KO—it all flowed in one smooth motion.
To farm attributes, Chizan was deliberately using only Thousand Years of Death.
In just a minute or two, more than ten Sunagakure ninjas mid-casting had fallen to his technique.
And Chizan was especially petty—he only targeted ninjas in the middle of casting ninjutsu.
These targets were focused on their techniques, stood farther back, and never expected to be ambushed.
As the next Sunagakure ninja was sent flying, someone finally noticed something was wrong.
"Watch out! A Konoha ninja is ambushing us!"
"Check your six!"
A Sunagakure jōnin finally noticed after a series of screams.
He quickly stopped casting and drew the katana from his back, going on high alert.
Thanks to his warning, surrounding ninjas also paused their techniques and grew cautious.
Chizan curled his lip in disdain.
He muttered to himself, "Hmph, not bad reactions... tch."
Seeing the enemy on alert, he didn't linger. With Flying Thunder God, he teleported to another part of the battlefield.
His sinister smile returned.
The screams started again—one Sunagakure ninja after another was launched into the air and dropped like loot boxes.
After a round of mass "Thousand Years of Death" attacks, Chizan finally triggered a series of system prompts.
[Ding! Detected host has used Thousand Years of Death to hit 10 times in a row. Special reward: Thousand Years of Death power increased by 2%. Note: At 10% power boost, a new trait will be activated!]
[Ding! Detected host has used Thousand Years of Death to hit 20 times in a row. Special reward: Thousand Years of Death power increased by 3%. Note: At 10% power boost, a new trait will be activated!]
In a flash, the power of Thousand Years of Death had increased by 5%.
Chizan didn't really feel any different, but somehow it seemed like the Sunagakure ninja screamed louder and louder when he struck them.
After another chain of attacks, Chomei couldn't take it anymore.
"Chizan, why do you love this move so much... uh... Thousand Years of Death?"
"Can't you just slice them up normally?"
While Chomei was complaining, Chizan casually sent another Sunagakure ninja flying.
Then calmly replied:
"Chomei, you don't get it. I'm carrying on the essence of Konoha's White Fang."
"I want enemy ninja to fear the Thousand Years of Death on the battlefield!"
But what Chomei said next froze Chizan's brain completely.
"But you're using Transparent Release the whole time. The enemy doesn't even know what's happening..."
"How can they remember you? Or your Thousand Years of Death?"
That single rhetorical question made Chizan explode in a fit of classic profanity.
Crap, that's true—they don't even know who is attacking them...
No way. This won't do! He had to make sure the enemy knew Gekko Chizan's terror!
"Chomei, you're absolutely right!"
"I overlooked that!"
In the next second, Chizan deactivated Transparent Release and revealed himself in the middle of Sunagakure's formation.
Before the enemy could react...
Chizan showed off his signature smile again.
" Have you ever seen the sights of hell?"
"Konoha-Style! Taijutsu Secret Technique! Thousand Years of Death!"
With a Body Flicker, Chizan appeared behind the nearest enemy ninja.
One strike of Thousand Years of Death sent the guy flying!
"Awooooo!!!"
Chizan's loud voice and the enemy's miserable screams drew every ninja's gaze to him in unison.
And what did they see? A Konoha ninja, hands in Tiger Seal, had just launched one of their own into the sky.
"How dare you! Sneaking behind our lines to ambush us?!"
"Kill him!"
Sunagakure ninja instantly reversed direction and charged toward Gekko Chizan.
...
A/N: Large-scale ninjutsu does have a suppressing effect on summoning beasts—take Jiraiya's Swamp of the Underworld for example. Tsk tsk, that thing's a literal nightmare for snakes.
I'm seriously curious how that swamp was so wide even when Jiraiya's chakra was being suppressed. Under normal conditions, how big could that technique be?
Also, come to think of it, Summoning Technique seems like it was designed specifically for Konoha ninjas. Anyone with half-decent strength has one.
Other villages do have summons, sure, but the quality is awful. The only decent ones are the Second Mizukage's giant clam, Kisame's shark, and Temari's weasel.
