ACSP: Chapter 119 Amaterasu Transformation, Kagutsuchi!
"I originally prepared this move to deal with that Qin Hao."
"But now, I just want to kill this Old Granny Yan and slaughter her entire Puppet City to avenge the many brothers of my Thunder God Temple..."
When Lei Li opened his eyes again, the Lightning Style Chakra surrounding him had completely turned into pitch-black electrical currents.
He crossed his arms in front of his chest and shook them vigorously.
Under the infusion of black lightning.
The three layers of unbreakable iron whip chains were directly shattered by him, breaking into countless fragments.
And without the restraint of these three layers of iron chains.
The [Three Treasures Suction Crush] jointly released by the three groups of 'Buddha', 'Dharma', and 'Monk' puppets could finally no longer trap him.
Lei Li forcibly withstood that layer of tornado storm and stepped out from the eye of the wind step by step.
"——Swish!"
"—Whoosh!"
"—Whoosh!"
Just then, three sounds of wind being broken rang out suddenly.
It turned out that the three white-clothed puppets, each holding a great sword in both hands, had launched another attack on Lei Li.
"A bunch of scrap metal, you're courting death..."
Lei Li roared angrily, and three bolts of black lightning instantly erupted from his body, transforming into three ferocious-looking black panthers that charged straight toward the three white-clothed puppets.
It seemed those three white-clothed puppets truly possessed independent consciousness.
Even though no one was controlling them at that moment.
However, when they encountered those three black lightning panthers,
they actually chose to dodge.
But unfortunately.
The speed of those three black lightning panthers was faster than lightning itself.
And they could even track their targets.
No matter how the three white-clothed puppets tried to flee, they ultimately could not escape the pursuit of the lightning panthers; they were torn apart directly by the black lightning and exploded into a pile of debris and wreckage.
"Brother Jiang Chen, great kindness needs no thanks. Now that I am all alone, once this Puppet City is destroyed, the Thunder God Temple will be willing to honor you as its master from now on!"
After smashing the three white-clothed puppets wielding great swords, Lei Li glanced back at Jiang Chen, then his body instantly transformed into a streak of black lightning and rushed toward Old Granny Yan.
Jiang Chen was speechless upon hearing this.
Big brother, your Thunder God Temple is empty...
"Hmm?"
At this moment, the expression on Jiang Chen's face suddenly stiffened, and his gaze stared straight up into the sky.
At that moment, he saw the gravel that had originally been falling from the sky re-condensing, transforming into an even larger dragon made of sand and earth.
"What's going on?"
"That guy was clearly dead just a moment ago."
Jiang Chen frowned and turned to rush toward Old Granny Yan.
When he arrived at Old Granny Yan's location,
Lei Li, who had arrived earlier, was already engaged in a fierce battle with the other puppets.
Although those three sets of Chikamatsu Ten Puppets were formidable,
Lei Li had already activated the Third Raikage's secret technique, [Black Lightning].
Even while facing more than twenty high-level puppets simultaneously, he still held the absolute upper hand.
Jiang Chen glanced past Lei Li and immediately looked at Old Granny Yan.
A person was still standing beside Old Granny Yan at that moment.
It was none other than Nie Tai, who had previously died after having his heart pierced by his [Chidori]!
"You actually resurrected? Could it be that you were also granted the power of the Evil God by that Qin Hao?"
Jiang Chen asked, frowning.
However, no sooner had he asked this question than he immediately dismissed it himself.
The effect of the Immortal Body is that one does not die after receiving a fatal injury.
But this Nie Tai before him had clearly died just now.
The fact that the other party had come back to life now,
this was no longer an Immortal Body.
It was resurrection from the dead!
"Hehe, surprised, aren't you? Even if you kill everyone in Puppet City, so what? As long as I am still here, the people here can be resurrected infinitely..."
Old Granny Yan looked at Jiang Chen with burning eyes and said slowly: "Jiang Chen, you are a smart person. If you are willing to surrender to me, I can plead with Qin Hao to spare your life."
"As long as you join Puppet City, not only can I grant you the ability of 'Infinite Resurrection,' but I can also make you the Vice City Lord of Puppet City!"
"From now on, in this Puppet City, your status and authority will be second only to mine—above ten thousand people, yet below one. What do you think?"
Infinite Resurrection?
Hearing these four words, even Jiang Chen was deeply shocked.
He remembered that there was no such perverse ability in the Naruto dimension.
"Wait a minute, that person is..."
At that moment, Jiang Chen suddenly noticed a phantom image of an old person with gray hair on Old Granny Yan, performing the same actions as her.
That was Old Granny Yan's contract character.
In an instant.
Jiang Chen immediately understood the reason why Nie Tai had resurrected.
Old Granny Yan's contract character was Chiyo from the Hidden Sand Village.
And as far as he knew, Chiyo had an extremely perverse unique forbidden technique called [One's Own Life Reincarnation]!
This technique was originally a forbidden technique developed by Chiyo to resurrect the parents of her grandson, Sasori of the Red Sand. It could use one's own Chakra as a medium to transfer life entirely to another person, and it could also grant life to puppets.
No wonder those Chikamatsu Ten Puppets could move on their own without being controlled by a Puppeteer.
It turned out that they had long since been granted life by Old Granny Yan using [One's Own Life Reincarnation].
However.
Using [One's Own Life Reincarnation] requires one's own life as the price.
The fact that Old Granny Yan was still alive after using [One's Own Life Reincarnation] multiple times in succession meant she must have already obtained the power of the Evil God.
It seemed that the reason why she betrayed him and the Thunder God Temple must have been for this.
After figuring all of this out.
The doubts in Jiang Chen's heart were finally completely resolved.
He looked at Old Granny Yan with a smile and said: "Using the power of the Evil God in conjunction with One's Own Life Reincarnation to infinitely resurrect others—that you could think of this shows your brain is quite flexible. It's a pity your brain wasn't used in the right place; that is truly foolish."
"Insolent! The City Lord appreciates talent and wants to recruit you to my Puppet City because she values you. How dare you be so rude?"
Nie Tai, who had just been resurrected by Old Granny Yan, was furious to see Jiang Chen insulting his savior.
He raised his hand and made a gesture.
The next second.
The dragon of sand and earth that had re-condensed immediately swooped down, roaring as it crashed toward Jiang Chen.
"A defeated opponent dares to bark here? Who gave you the courage?"
Jiang Chen ignored the dragon of sand and earth behind him.
Instead, he narrowed his eyes.
He directly channeled his Dojutsu power and unleashed [Amaterasu] on Nie Tai!
However, Nie Tai had long been wary of this move.
The moment the black flames of Amaterasu focused and manifested, he blocked them with a sand shield.
"Don't use a technique you've already used. I was defeated by you before because I was ambushed, but this time, that will absolutely not happen..."
Nie Tai sneered, preparing to use another method.
Unexpectedly, at this moment.
A curve appeared at the corner of Jiang Chen's mouth: "Who told you that this technique of mine is one I've used before?"
"—Kagutsuchi!"
As the words fell.
The black flames that had been burning on the sand shield suddenly changed, instantly transforming into a sharp sword that pierced through the defense of the sand shield in an instant.
"Black flames taking shape? How is that possible..."
The activation speed of the Mangekyo Dojutsu was too fast.
Before Nie Tai could react, his body had already been pierced by the Amaterasu black flames that had transformed into a sword.
The black flames spread rapidly along his chest, burning his body into nothingness in the blink of an eye.
And at this moment.
The sand and earth dragon that Nie Tai had previously controlled had only just rushed to within three feet behind Jiang Chen.
The person died, and the technique vanished.
This pitiful dragon of sand and earth still failed to touch Jiang Chen's body this time; it collapsed on the spot when it approached within three feet of him, once again turning into sand filling the sky.
