Chapter 151: Muscle Regeneration
The summoning was completed, and a cloud of white smoke rose. What Suikazan Fuguki summoned were not the Hiramekarei swords, but two detonating talismans.
"Not good!" Fuguki's face drastically changed. He wanted to tear off the talismans, but it was too late. With a bang, the explosion threw him into the air. If he were a common elite jonin, he would have died, but Fuguki was only severely wounded.
"Hiss!" Biwa Jūzō took a deep breath, terrified. If Fuguki hadn't summoned first, he would have been the one torn apart by the trap.
"Ahem!" Fuguki, agonizing, shouted: "Samehada, give me chakra!"
The sword Samehada reluctantly obeyed. Under the chakra transfusion, Fuguki's cells regenerated at a visible speed. In seconds, he was completely healed.
"What a shame!" Sasuke thought.
Jūzō, seeing this, changed his mind. "Fuguki, I'm going to help Akebino Jinin. I'll leave this demon to you." And without further ado, he fled to another battlefield, where the even more terrifying Morning Peacock awaited him.
Fuguki now faced Sasuke and two mechas alone. He used his secret hair technique, hardening his mane and launching it like a storm of needles. Sasuke hid behind a mecha while a clone inside activated the radar to analyze the jutsu, which he recognized as a Yang Style technique similar to Jiraiya's Needle Jizō.
"What a powerful technique! It almost caught me by surprise," Sasuke praised, feigning fear.
"Hahaha!" Fuguki laughed, pleased, but with a dark light in his eyes. Suddenly, his hair, which had sunk into the earth, sprouted from beneath Sasuke's feet. But thanks to his radar, Sasuke had already foreseen it and dodged it.
Enraged, Fuguki attacked with Samehada, using its enormous reach to break Sasuke's six-sword formation.
"Samehada: Chakra-Devouring Cut!"
Sasuke was forced to block with his six swords. The force of the blow was immense. Fuguki pressed, and Samehada's spikes emerged, ready to tear Sasuke's arm and absorb his chakra.
But it was a trap. At that moment, the two mechas attacked Fuguki from the flanks with the Executioner's Blade and the Hiramekarei. While he defended himself, Sasuke's three heads spat out three Secret Water Blades at point-blank range. One of them pierced his chest.
Sasuke lunged for Samehada, but the living sword resisted. Fuguki distanced himself and healed again. But this time, he noticed something strange.
"Samehada, do you want to rebel?"
The sword vibrated in his hand with unusual excitement, as if it wanted to break free and approach Sasuke. By absorbing the chakra of the Secret Water Blade, it had tasted something new. Refined, powerful chakra, a direct descendant of the Senju's. It was an infinitely more delicious delicacy than its current wielder's. Samehada had found a new potential master.
