Escape From Konoha

Chapter 189 Zero Tail

The fortress named "King's Fortress" is the gathering place of Kong Nin.

As early as during the Second Ninja World War, the Royal Fortress had been severely damaged by Konoha Ninja. This fortress, which is a symbol of the ninjas of the sky country, can no longer soar into the sky. In order to avoid being found by Konoha ninjas, the entire fortress was hidden underground by using magic techniques, so that it survived.

In the main room of the fortress, a muscular man was sitting on a stone throne. He was about forty years old, with black hair and looked very energetic.

Standing in front of him was a Sora Ninja wearing a ninja uniform and a ninja forehead.

After listening to the work report of the Kong Ninja, the middle-aged man sitting on the stone throne inevitably showed disappointment on his face, and said with a sigh:

"In other words, still can't find a supply energy that can stably provide energy for the 'zero tail'?"

"I'm very sorry, Lord Shennong, because the Chakra needed by 'Zero Tail' is too large. I am afraid that only the legendary tailed beast can provide a large amount of energy to 'Zero Tail' stably and continuously."

Faced with Kong Ren's apology, the middle-aged man—Shen Nong naturally understood this truth.

However, he still wanted to try to see if he could use other methods to power the 'Zero Tail'.

In the past, the kingdom of the sky gathered the strength of the whole country and built this fortress with the core of "Zero Tail".

Although it is a majestic fortress in the sky, it can also be used as an ultimate weapon when necessary, and its destructive power is equal to that of a tailed beast. However, it relies too much on the reason of "Zero Tail". It's like half of it is wasted.

This is also the reason why Shennong is extremely distressed.

"Since this is the case, there is no other way. Continue to bring people back from the outside. Whether it is tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, let 'Zero Tail' recover as soon as possible, and then return to the Kingdom of Fire. Revenge with Konoha."

Shennong gave the order cold-bloodedly.

If you can't get a tailed beast, you can use the chakra and life force in an ordinary human body to fill Zero Tail with energy.

It's just that the chakra and vitality of ordinary people are too scarce, so if you want to feed Lingwei, you may have to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of people to allow Lingwei to obtain the huge energy to activate the fortress.

"yes."

After hearing Shen Nong's order, Kong Nin's face became solemn.

At present, more than 3,000 prisoners have been imprisoned in the fortress. These prisoners are ordinary people who were secretly transported into the fortress from outside, and they are living sacrifices to provide energy for Zero Tail.

But if Zero Tail is to be fully awakened, this number of people is not enough, and more prisoners are needed to provide chakra and vitality.

"Go down, remember not to attract the attention of ninjas from other countries, and secretly capture people in, we now—"

Before he could finish his sentence, the entire fortress was shrouded in a terrifying shock wave and trembled violently.

Shennong sat on the stone throne, his body also shook, and he looked up at the ceiling.

Cracks appeared in the ceiling and showed signs of growing.

Kong Nin who was standing in front of him immediately became unsteady, fell to the ground, and got up from the ground in a panic.

"Lord Shennong, what happened?"

As soon as he finished speaking, sirens sounded outside, and sounded at various passages.

Shennong's face darkened, and when the alarm sounded outside, he realized that an enemy had invaded the fortress.

The impact force that made the entire fortress tremble just now is proof of the enemy's attack.

who is it? Konoha ninja?

Although the enemy invaded the fortress, Shennong panicked for a moment, but he quickly calmed down.

This is the base camp of Kong Nin. There are thousands of people who can fight, and each of them is well-equipped. As long as there is no large-scale invasion of ninjas from the five major countries, the strength of thousands of Kong Nin is enough to make any enemy feel desperate.

Therefore, he only needs to wait for the good news here.

The battle came so suddenly, the Kong Nin who were working in the fortress immediately realized that there was an enemy invasion, immediately put down their work, picked up their weapons and ran towards the incident site.

Jumping down from the hole made by the fist, Ruri and Ayane successfully sneaked into the inside of the fortress.

From the outside, the fortress looks no different from ordinary stone buildings, but after entering the inside, the walls of the surrounding passages have become hard metal plates, and there are transparent pipes of unknown purpose everywhere, attached to the walls, There are very consistent pulsating traces.

"I'm going to get the design drawing of this fortress and other important materials. As for the chakra that looks like a tailed beast, walk straight along this road, turn left at the third intersection, and go straight ahead."

Under Ayane's supercilious observation, the layout of the entire fortress can be seen at a glance.

Invading such a fortress with complex terrain, if you are a general perception ninja, you will probably be stunned by the intricate roads here, but for Baiyan, this kind of maze-like fortress passage, you can see where the end point is when you open your eyes. How to walk.

Whether it is the library where the design drawings and important materials are stored, or the room where the tailed beast chakra is placed, they cannot escape the detection of Baiyan.

After sharing the location with Liuli, Ayane started to act alone, groping towards the library where the design drawings and important materials were kept.

Liuli glanced at the back of Ayane's leaving, then turned her head and quickly moved forward in the direction Ayane pointed.

A large number of air ninjas appeared in the passage ahead, and they immediately spotted Liuli's figure. Without any hesitation, they picked up the weapons in their hands, kunai pierced the air one after another, and were launched one after another from the weapon's pipe.

It was a kunai gun that could fire kunai in rapid succession.

Similar to the repeating crossbow, but more sophisticated in workmanship, the kunai fired from the firearm is also faster and more powerful.

Ordinary ninjas cannot capture the trajectory of these kunai, but for Ruri, who has powerful dynamic vision, the kunai fired by the ninjas with kunai guns are as fast as a turtle crawling.

The kunai almost flew past Liuli's body, not a single one hit him, not even his clothes.

The Kong Ninjas were extremely shocked. Faced with such a dense volley of kunai, Liuli was unscathed inside. The inhuman neurological reaction, including the speed of movement, made them understand that Liuli was completely different from the enemies they had fought before. .

They prepared to distance themselves, started filling kunai into the kunai gun, and fired another round of kunai to attack Liuli.

When they were filling up the kunai, Liuli's figure flashed and rushed in front of them, picked up the flame fan behind her, condensed the violent physical chakra on it, and waved it in the air.

boom!

The channel densely covered with metal plates exploded directly, and the transparent pipe attached to the metal plate burst. Chakra leaked from inside, floated in the air, and disappeared quickly.

A small group of Kong Ninjas were completely wiped out by Liuli's attack, and they all fell to the ground.

Continue running along the passage and come to the third intersection Ayane mentioned, and immediately turn left.

The passage ahead was still occupied by a large number of Kong Ninjas, as if they were protecting some important personnel and preventing Liuli from advancing.

They picked up kunai guns that could shoot kunai repeatedly and were about to pull the trigger.

The temperature in the passage suddenly rose sharply, raging flames swept in from the front, and the metal plates of the passage were burned red by the violent burning flames.

Before he could scream, the narrow passage was swallowed up by flames, including the empty ninja in the passage.

Destroying all the empty ninjas in the passage, the flames did not stop, but instead crashed into the giant door at the end of the passage.

With a roaring explosion, the giant door was blasted open.

The black and scorched corpse of the empty ninja turned into a kunai gun with burn marks on its parts, mixed with hot flames and thick black smoke, falling from the sky.

The passage outside the room was covered in high temperatures, and the air was distorted by steam.

Liuli stepped on the hot metal floor. The black tights on her body were spotless. She walked step by step as if taking a leisurely walk. She walked to the door and glanced into the room.

This is the main room of the royal fortress. It is circular in shape and built very hugely.

Deep in the main chamber, there is a large pillar wrapped with vine-like transparent pipes, supporting the upper and lower parts of the main chamber. At the bottom of the huge pillar, there is a large stone throne.

Liuli saw the middle-aged man sitting on the stone throne and said in a calm voice: "It seems that you are the leader of the Kong Ninja."

Three Magatama Sharingan appeared in his eyes, staring at the other person lightly.

The middle-aged man sitting on the stone throne, Shen Nong, clapped his hands and said to Liuli in a praising tone: "It's amazing, is that the power of the Sharingan? As a rebellious ninja of Konoha, you can find it here, I really deserve a compliment, little girl.”

Liuli is an S-class defected ninja from Konoha and comes from a famous Uchiha family. Although Shennong has been hiding underground all year round, the information has not been lost, so he knows something about Liuli.

"How about it, do you want to come and help me? You who betrayed Konoha must hate the village of Konoha very much, and my purpose is also to take revenge on the Fire Country and Konoha who once destroyed the Sky Country. In a sense Say, our goals are the same.”

Shennong stood up from the stone throne with a sincere and generous smile on his face, giving people a friendly and gentle impression.

"Are these your last words?"

"We are not enemies. We are equally hostile to the Fire Country and Konoha. We have something in common - ugh!!!"

Shennong wanted to continue to bewitch, but his hypocritical fake smile made Liuli instinctively disgusted, so Liuli directly proved her position with actions and interrupted Shennong's words.

Shennong had just stood up from the stone throne. Before he could see Liuli's movements clearly, Liuli received a powerful blow to his stomach, spitting out all the air in his lungs and a large mouthful of blood.

He lowered his head in pain and saw that Liuli's fist was covered with black leather fingerless gloves, and the fist dug into most of his abdomen.

The hard muscles in his abdomen that had been hard-trained were as ridiculous as a useless piece of paper in front of Liuli's fist.

"What I hate most is fake smiles on other people's faces. It makes me unhappy."

Liuli pulled out her fist, and Shen Nong bent over and knelt on the ground. The fake smile on his face turned into a twisted and ferocious face, his brows jumped in pain, and saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth.

This stinky girl is so powerful! He raised his head with difficulty, trying to see Liuli's face clearly again.

Just as he was about to raise his head, he was hit hard on the back of his head.

The head collided violently with the hard ground. The ground cracked and half of the head sank in. Another mouthful of blood was spat out, and the facial muscles were distorted.

Liuli put her foot on Shennong's head, making him unable to resist him or even raise his head.

"You air ninjas are studying tailed beasts, right? Where is that thing? Hand it over."

Liuli's cold words were full of command, and her condescending and domineering and ruthless attitude was not a discussion with Shennong.

Shennong coughed up blood, understood the meaning of Liuli's words, and laughed: "I see, are you here for Zero Tails?"

He could clearly feel the monster-like power in Liuli's body. His proud body couldn't even stop the opponent's punch. Being crushed by this overwhelming force, he had no chance of winning with his own strength.

"Zero Tails?"

Liuli raised her eyebrows, hearing such a name for the first time.

"Yeah, that's an amazing thing. Although it wasn't created by our country of sky, our country of sky is the first country to discover its existence."

Shennong's tone was full of pride.

"I'm not interested in the history of your Sky Country. Where is that thing?"

Liuli asked directly without any nonsense.

"Let me go first, and I will take you there."

A sly smile appeared on Shennong's face, which quickly disappeared.

"Don't play tricks."

Liuli took her feet off Shennong's head.

"Don't worry, you are so powerful, even if there are a hundred people like me, they may not be your opponent. It is really worthy of Uchiha's bloodline, enviable power, it would be great if I can use it."

Shennong stood up crookedly from the ground, dusted off his clothes, and blood dripped from his forehead, making the smile on his face very ugly and funny.

"Are you done talking nonsense?"

"Ahem, you are such a rude little girl. Since you want to get Zero Tails so much, then I will take you there."

When Shennong saw Liuli's cold gaze, he knew that the other party was already impatient, so he did not continue to delay the time.

He walked towards the pillar connected to the stone throne, and touched it with his palm. Immediately, glowing inscriptions appeared on the pillar, and the surface of the pillar became bright, revealing a hidden hole that could only accommodate one hand.

Under Liuli's gaze, Shennong very steadily stretched his palm into the hole and pressed a button inside.

A hole immediately appeared on the floor next to Shennong, allowing people to pass through and connecting to the lower space.

"Come with me, Zero-Tail is down here. That guy is not easy to mess with."

Shennong jumped into the hole first and fell towards the deep space.

Liuli was not timid, and jumped down from the cave entrance with Shennong, and followed him into the underground space where Lingwei was.

After landing on the ground, Liuli stood firmly. The underground space took on a cylindrical shape, with a huge and narrow tombstone-like instrument standing in front of it.

In front of the instrument, there is a cocoon-like thing with the same shape, which is supported by several transparent tubes protruding from the wall of the cylinder, suspended in the air.

The skin of the cocoon is transparent and shimmers. Inside, there is a curled-up snake-like creature. The body is dark, the eyes on the head are closed, wearing a white mask, and breathing rhythmically inside the cocoon.

In the transparent pipes wrapped around the cocoon, a black liquid substance flows, constantly nourishing the big black snake inside the cocoon.

Although it was not obvious, Liuli could still detect that the creature in the cocoon was undergoing some kind of transformation.

However, due to insufficient energy provided, it is hibernating like a snake-like creature at the moment.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Shennong, who was under the cocoon, suddenly laughed nervously for some reason, making Liuli notice his presence.

He turned around and looked at Liuli, his face full of sarcasm and ridicule, and then pointed at Liuli rudely with his finger, smiling contemptuously:

"I didn't expect you to follow me so hard. I have long heard that the ninjas of the Uchiha clan are arrogant. It seems that you, a stinky girl, are no different. Hahahaha, you are here, as Zero-Tailed Death to food.”

Liuli stared at Shennong very quietly, forming seals with her hands and accumulating chakra in her mouth. She didn't want to hear this guy's ugly duck-like laughter anymore. It was simply a kind of pollution to her ears.

"?"

There was no fireball spit out from the mouth, no, it wasn't, but the moment it was spit out, the fireball immediately shrank, flew one meter away, turned into a thin flame, and disappeared in the air. This sudden change made Liuli narrow her eyes.

"Hey, I can't use Fire Release anymore. Sorry, this is the place where Zero-Tail sleeps. As long as you use chakra here, it will be absorbed by Zero-Tail and become the energy for the King's fortress."

"Want to eat me as energy?"

Liuli looked at Shennong thoughtfully.

"Haha, it's too late for you to understand now."

Shennong took out a remote control from his arms and pressed a button. The passage above was closed, turning the place into a cage from which there was no way to escape.

"How are you going to escape from here when you can't use chakra? Let me see your desperate and tragic death face. Zero-Tail likes to devour the chakra of desperate people."

Shennong put on an expression as if he was showing off his victory, and his shoulders were shaking with excitement.

The big black snake Zero Tails in the cocoon seemed to have swallowed very good quality chakra, and its body was swaying in the transparent cocoon.

The mask part of the head slowly lifted up and glanced at Liuli. The eyes opened from the white mask gave people a dark and evil cold feeling, full of greedy desire.

Liuli snorted. Zero Tails' greedy gaze made her very unhappy. She picked up the flame fan behind her and rushed over.

Zero Tail seemed to be sensing something, and several soft black tentacles suddenly split out from the surface of the cocoon. The front ends of the tentacles turned into palms, grabbing at Liuli's body from all directions.

He easily stepped on the tentacles that came in waves and cut them open with the flame fan.

However, the surface of the cocoon once again split into tentacles, this time the tentacles were denser and endless. Liuli had no choice but to step back and avoid the attack of the tentacles, frowning.

"It's so perfect. In a place like this, not even Uchiha's power can resist Zero-Tail. After absorbing your chakra, maybe Zero-Tail can be fully awakened in advance."

Shennong was still boasting there, with a show-off tone, and seemed to look down on the so-called Sharingan power.

"The power of Uchiha? When did I let you see the true power of Uchiha?"

"It's no use being tough. I won this battle."

Liuli looked at Shennong calmly, not angry at the other party's remarks.

But the other party's inexplicable sense of superiority made her a little unhappy.

"Ayane's side should be done with it, and I need to finish it quickly. Really, to deal with this kind of guy, you actually need to open the restrictions."

Liuli pressed her forehead with her palm, showing an annoyed expression with a headache.

Under Shennong's surprised gaze, Liuli wiped up her sleeves, exposed her wrists, and unlocked the chakra limiter on her wrists. The metal ring fell off, and Liuli's control over the chakra in her body reached an unimaginable level.

Lingwei, who was in the cocoon, also sensed something and trembled with fear.

Because it found that it could no longer absorb chakra from Liuli's body.

The chakra in Liuli's body, under Liuli's control, seemed to have condensed into a stubborn stone with no gaps. No matter how hard it was absorbed, it would stay motionless in Liuli's body.

Red skeletons were placed around Liuli, and the air became very heavy.

Shennong felt that his breathing became difficult, and his eyes looked frightened. He stared at the red skeleton outside Liuli's body and was speechless. He didn't know what Liuli planned to do or what technique he was going to use, but he smelled the breath of death.

The red skeleton began to be further perfected, with meridians and flesh attached. He put on armor, spread out his strong and powerful arms, and waved a hand in the air at will. The red light deformed and twisted the air, and the hand held it. A huge red sword, majestic.

"Don't say that I bullied you. You said that Uchiha's power is nothing more than this. I will be merciful and let you see what Uchiha's power is."

After finishing speaking, Liuli controlled the red Susanoo and raised the red giant sword. Just raising it without falling down would cause great oppression to people, and they would even forget to resist.

Shennong's lips trembled, and he looked at the red giant sword floating above his head with an almost desperate expression. He forgot to think, and his mind went blank.

God's... power?

How could a ninja do such a thing?

"Are you kidding me? I am the god of the future. It must be the genjutsu of the Sharingan! Zero-Tail, kill her quickly!"

Shennong struggled to regain his consciousness, fearing to step back while shouting orders to Zero Tail at the top of his lungs.

It is absolutely impossible for him to block the red giant sword in the air. He can only rely on the power of Zero Tails to resist it.

Then Lingwei in the cocoon just shrank his head and buried his head deeply, as if he was afraid that he would be noticed by Liuli at this moment, and did not respond to Shennong.

"What are you doing standing there, Zero Tail! Quickly kill her, you are an invincible elephant——"

Shennong turned his head, and the red giant sword fell from the sky. The storm caused by the giant sword made his body unable to move, and he watched helplessly as the giant sword got closer and closer to his body.

The shouting stopped suddenly, as if the hands of death were strangling the throat, and despair and death came.

The giant sword fell to the ground, forming a powerful shock wave that raged in the circular space. A deep sword mark extended out, kicking up a large amount of dust and gravel.

The entire circular room, which was as huge as a palace, was split into two halves in the middle with a random sword strike. Also split into two halves was Shennong's body.

Liuli ignored Shennong's body and stepped forward, the red Susanoo moving with him, and finally stood in front of the cocoon wrapping Zero Tails.

Zero tail's body trembled and trembled, restless and afraid in the cocoon.

The cold and biting murderous aura in the air almost made him stop breathing, and his whole body was cold. He was obviously frightened by the power Liuli showed at this moment.

Liuli took out a scroll from the ninja tool bag, spread it out, and unsealed the contents of the scroll.

It was an orange-red, half-human-tall clay pot object. It was the amber bottle, the treasure phantom left by the Immortal of Six Paths. It was a legendary treasure phantom with powerful sealing capabilities.

Liuli controls the red Susanoo, hangs the red giant sword above the silkworm cocoon openly, opens the lid of the amber purification bottle, and turns to look at Lingwei inside the silkworm cocoon.

"Are you going in by yourself, or should I push you in? I respect your choice."

"..."

Lingwei looked at the red giant sword hanging above his head, and then looked down at the amber bottle. There was an abyss-like dark space inside, which made Lingwei feel dangerous instinctively.

If it could, it would choose neither.
