Chapter 55: Restraint, Numerical Conversion Mechanism
Chapter 55: Restraint, Numerical Conversion Mechanism
Minato actually knew some little secrets about Fukuko.
For example, once Minato quietly approached Fukuyo, who was lost in thought, and when Fukuyo noticed him, he inadvertently revealed a chillingly evil aura.
Although faint and fleeting, the observant Minato still noticed it.
He spent several months in Obsidian during his subsequent training before finally confirming that the similar feeling was real.
Now, the aura emanating from Fu Heiyao is remarkably similar to that of back then, though he no longer conceals it.
The black lightning that suddenly appeared from the Obsidian Fist instantly pierced through Nawaki and "Amamiya Haruaki".
Fu Heiyao even considered that the opponent might have the ability to fix the soul, so he added a strike to the outline of the soul to this attack.
That's right, Obsidian Black is the same as Katsushika.
Different souls reside within them, forcing them to understand the structure and boundaries of the soul.
This tactic is not very effective against people who are not immune to physical attacks.
It's perfect for this situation!
"I was wrong, don't electrocute me..." Rope Tree's subconscious voice was drowned out by the exploding black lightning.
To everyone's astonishment, the "Amamiya Harumi" behind Nawaki had changed.
"Amamiya Harumi" seemed to sense a deadly danger and revealed his true form when the black lightning struck.
With the agonizing tearing and reassembly of flesh and bone, the once-loli-like figure was instantly twisted into a bloody monster.
The girl's delicate little feet instantly transformed into the curved and powerful hind legs of some kind of insect.
She practically launched herself forward, stepping onto the back of the rope tree and moving away.
"Qingya!?" Amamiya Seimei was stunned.
"Really?!" Sakumo's voice was full of disbelief.
He wasn't stupid; he naturally knew that this wasn't "Amamiya Haruya" at all, but rather the monster of the cyborgs hiding behind the scenes.
But how exactly did he manage to deceive his senses?
Sakumo was a cautious person, and he used several methods to confirm that the Amamiya Haruaki in front of him was just an ordinary person.
Even Rope Tree tried to test them with the words they had once spoken, but none of these attempts were flawed.
The thought of Rope Tree carrying this monster all the way sent chills down Sakumo's spine.
Minato immediately threw his shuriken, but the flying shuriken struck the monster and sparked blindingly bright sparks.
The moment the monster landed, its hardened arm quickly softened and expanded, then instantly lengthened.
The front bone pierced the skin, transforming into a ferocious bone whip with barbs along its edges.
With a sharp whistling sound, the bone whip circled the corridor railing in a way that defied the laws of physics, lashing fiercely at Sakumo and Minato.
At the same time, her knee deformed again, and she shot towards the rope tree like a spring.
His other hand remained in the same position, his gaze fixed intently on Rope Tree.
"You won't touch Rope Tree again!"
Just as she was about to touch the rope tree, Sakumo's eyes suddenly sharpened, arcs of electricity crackled across his body, and a gust of wind rose beneath his feet.
From Minato's perspective, the white dagger in Sakumo's hand seemed to transform into a streak of white light.
Electricity and wind intertwined in the air, dazzling the eye, and the sharp blade flashed so fast that the bone whip was severed before anyone could react.
The next moment, a slash originating from Fukuyo and a pincer attack from Sakumo struck the monster wearing Amamiya Haruya's skin hard.
By the time Obsidian withdrew the black light from his palm and activated Lightning Release Chakra Mode, Amamiya Haruaki had already been chopped into mango chunks.
Sakumo shielded Nawaki behind him, his eyes cold yet filled with astonishment as he looked at each eye growing on the fleshy mass in the air.
"Ha!" The moment Amamiya Harumi landed, all her injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. "She's really strong."
"Such a recovery speed!" Sakumo frowned as he watched Amamiya Harumi, who had been slashed to pieces but could easily recover.
Compared to the healing of blood and flesh, this is more like having a body that resembles putty.
It can be stretched at will and can also reassemble immediately after being cut.
Could the rumors be true? Are demons truly only capable of being sealed away and cannot be killed?
"Even with the ability to strike the soul, long-range attacks deal very limited damage."
Fu Heiya narrowed his eyes, staring at the wounds on Amamiya Haruaki's face that were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Is its extraordinary regenerative ability, even more remarkable than that of a real person, due to chakra?
He knew a little more than Sakumo, but there was still an information gap, and even the damage to his perceived soul was only slow to heal.
As expected, sealing techniques are still the only way to deal with the dung monsters of the ninja world.
"Honestly, can't you slow down a bit? You've scratched my face."
The mimic girl clutched her face, which had been hacked to pieces by Fu Heiyao's slash, in distress.
However, with her touch, the injury began to slowly heal in the next second.
"Who exactly are you, and what is your relationship with that wishing box? Where did the real Amamiya Haruhi go?!" Sakumo asked coldly.
"Who am I?" "Amamiya Haruya" shook her head.
"Just call me Kagura. As for my relationship with the wishing box, can't you guess from your expressions?"
"That's me."
Kagura kept talking, as if she had been holding it in inside the box for a long time.
"You humans are so wicked! Wu and I finally managed to escape from the Box of Bliss, and then we got captured."
If it weren't for my special abilities, allowing me to break Wu's legs as a shield, I probably would have been the one left behind.
Kagura answered Sakumo's questions very honestly, or rather, she didn't think the three of them could escape.
However, when mentioning that she almost got caught, Kagura still patted her extremely flat chest with lingering fear.
"That old man with round eyes almost scared me to death."
Fortunately, I have a special ability that allowed me to transfer my soul back into the Box of Elysium to maintain my form; otherwise, I would have truly died.
Kagura glanced at Amamiya Seimei and Sato Hideyoshi, who were spying on her from the side, and smiled back.
Thanks to the sacrifice of these two people.
She remained cautious and discreet in the human world for a while, and never discovered any more abnormal beings like the old man with round eyes.
Kagura felt that she was doing well again.
"More than these trivial things," Kagura said, her adorable face, now filled with curiosity, "I'm more curious about how you managed to make me feel like I almost died without hurting anyone at all."
And your strike, why did it touch my soul?
The girl's voice was clear and melodious, but she didn't ask Sakumo, who could "torture" her, but instead looked at Fukuko and Nawaki, who had been beaten to his knees.
As if she had seen something interesting, she actually asked the undulating obsidian in a coquettish manner, just like a teenage girl.
Rope Tree, struck by the sudden black lightning, knelt on the ground, his eyes wide open and trembling.
Even though Nawaki was in so much pain, Haruaki Amamiya could still tell that Nawaki's body and soul were not harmed in any way.
It was just a state of painful trembling.
Even Sakumo's eyes held a hint of curiosity.
He knew the effects of the Obsidian Black Lightning, but there was no way that the level of black lightning he had just encountered could have caused no damage at all.
Fu Heiyao didn't explain, but Su Nuo within his body let out a cold snort.
"Restraint!"
Inside Fu Heiyao's body, Su Nuo, the master of binding, immediately saw through Fu Heiyao's trick.
"You use the Binding ability to unleash 200% of its power at the cost of canceling the damage."
"It's amazing you could come up with such a move, kid." Su Nuo's tone was tinged with surprise.
This brat's ability is quite useful in battle.
In battles between strong individuals, it is very common to sense danger and dodge it in time.
Crisis perception, in essence, is the soul and body's vigilance against impending pain.
Fu Heiyao's fist has no lethal force, but through its inherent characteristics and binding properties, it can exert a terrifying pain that strikes directly at the soul and body.
This is tantamount to directly destroying the combat senses of a strong person.
You have no idea whether his attack actually caused any damage.
"How insidious, kid!"
Su Nuo could already guess how Fu Heiyao would scheme against people.
Fukuyo did not deny Sukuna's explanation.
That's the truth; he sacrificed all the numerical values for a stronger mechanism.
However, Fukuyo remained extremely wary of this monster called Kagura.
Box of Elysium.
Fukuyo remembered the evil entity from this movie, which on the surface could grant wishes, but in reality, it harbored a monster named Satoru within it.
Ke Wu is only able to sense malice and avoid attacks, not a monstrous creature with no malice but possessing human-like abilities and exhibiting sinister behavior.
Did his appearance cause some kind of butterfly effect, leading to the premature opening of the Chest of Elysium and the birth of a new monster?
And the old man with round eyes he mentioned, could it be Madara Uchiha before he transplanted the Rinnegan to Nagato?
What is he doing with Wu?
As for the element of Kagura and Satoru killing each other, Fushiko Kuroyo didn't care.
What morality can two monsters talk about?
He had every reason to suspect that Satoru, like him, had suffered a loss at Kagura's hands, even though Kagura meant no harm.
Too many questions were accumulating in his mind, but Fu Heiyao quickly suppressed his doubts.
The premise of everything is to survive.
"Yo, I'll support you, you take charge of the main attack!" Sakumo quickly made a decision the moment he realized that Fukuko could damage the monster.
Since the monster is immune to his attacks, we might as well let Fu Heiyao, who can deal damage, be the main attacker, and he can just provide support.
Fu Heiya nodded, but just as he began chanting the incantation, Amamiya Haruya suddenly revealed an innocent smile.
The next second, the grotesque biomimetic longsword pierced through Sakumo's abdomen.
