Chapter 237 Not everyone who knows Wood Release is Uchiha An.
Upon sensing that the Sage Chakra had successfully merged into the Rasengan, Jiraiya was immediately invigorated.
"This level is far from enough!"
"I need even more powerful attacks!"
With Jiraiya's roar, the fist-sized Rasengan rapidly expanded, gradually growing larger than his body.
He kept pouring Sage Chakra into the Rasengan until he could barely control it. Only then did Jiraiya stop, leap off Gamabunta, raise the giant chakra sphere in his hand, and press it down on Susanoo in front of him.
"Awaken, Itachi!"
"Immortal method. Super large jade Rasengan!"
The moment the Rasengan made contact with the Beard Sasuke, a supernova-like flare erupted at the point where the two energies met, nearly blinding the onlookers in the distance.
The shockwave from the collision spread out in a spherical shape, evaporating all the lake water and exposing the dried-up lakebed.
Fish, shrimp, and crabs in the water were lifted into the air by the blast wave and were directly cooked by the energy, emitting a fishy and foul odor.
The immense friction produced a buzzing sound like the flapping of millions of bees' wings, causing the two people nearby to frown.
As the giant Rasengan rubbed against Susanoo, it grew smaller and smaller. However, with the repeated friction of the Rasengan, Susanoo's armor gradually began to crack, and blue and orange energy turbulence burst forth from the cracks.
Jiraiya's white hair danced wildly in the chakra turbulence, and the patterns on his Sage Mask had dimmed considerably due to excessive energy use.
But his gaze remained as firm as iron, and he pressed down with all his weight without hesitation.
After a few seconds of stalemate, the Rasengan peeled away Susanoo's energy armor, flesh, and bones layer by layer.
Susanoo's defenses have finally collapsed!
A huge hole was blasted into Susanoo's chest, and Jiraiya, holding a Rasengan that had shrunk to the size of a fist, rushed in and slammed it heavily onto Itachi's body.
"boom!"
Itachi only managed to block instinctively, and was directly hit by the attack.
The high-speed rotation of the Rasengan acted on Itachi's body, turning him into a shooting star that flew out of Susanoo, tracing an arc in the air before falling far away.
"Huff, huff—" Jiraiya gasped for breath, trying to calm his wildly beating heart.
His sage mask was fading, and the sweat dripping from his forehead was evaporated by the remaining chakra before it hit the ground.
That move just now required too much chakra; even he was struggling to keep up. Even the two old toads, Fukasaku and Shima, were so exhausted that they were leaning on his shoulder, panting heavily.
But before his body could even hit the ground, the ground suddenly trembled violently, and a huge tree root burst forth from the ground, shooting skyward and sweeping towards him.
This attack came at the perfect moment when Jiraiya's old power was exhausted and his new power had not yet been generated, making it extremely tricky and difficult to dodge.
Jiraiya's pupils contracted, and he hurriedly adjusted his body in mid-air, twisting his body at the critical moment. At the same time, his white hair grew rapidly behind him, like a python pouncing towards the tree roots and intercepting them halfway.
With a "snap," the sharp thorns of the tree root were deflected by the whip behind his head, grazing his cheek and leaving a bloody mark.
Hama Guang, who was standing nearby, rushed over and slashed with his twin swords, cutting the newly grown tree into several pieces.
Jiraiya flipped over and landed on Gamahiro's head, looked around, and roared furiously.
"Uchiha An!"
"Get out here!"
He was both angry and afraid. He was angry at Uchiha An's interference, but also worried that Itachi might lose his mind again and join forces with someone like An.
However, to his surprise, he did not see Uchiha An's shadow in his field of vision. Instead, he saw an old man dressed in red Sengoku period armor walking out of the shadows.
Just by looking at the fragmented patterns on this person's body, you can tell that this is yet another impure body.
"Lord Jiraiya, not everyone who knows Wood Release is Uchiha An!"
A mocking voice came from behind the man, but Jiraiya's gaze was completely drawn to the reanimated body, and he didn't even glance at him.
Jiraiya had seen that face on the Hokage Rock for decades and knew it by heart.
"First-sama?"
Jiraiya was so surprised he could hardly close his mouth.
But then, he became even angrier.
At this moment, Hashirama Senju's eyes were lifeless, clearly unlike any of the other reanimated bodies he had encountered before.
Previously, both the Uchiha and Hyuga clan's reanimated bodies possessed their own consciousness. Although their bodies were controlled, they could communicate freely and express their subjective opinions.
But now this impure body is completely controlled, all its consciousness is locked up, and it has no independent consciousness at all.
Such a corrupted body will not go out of control, but every move it makes must be decided by the person controlling it, and it cannot even utter an extra word.
Jiraiya frowned, then turned his gaze to the person who had spoken earlier.
After a moment's thought, he remembered that this person was originally a teacher at the Ninja Academy named Mizuki. Later, he joined Kazuma's side and became Kazuma's assistant, where he was highly regarded by Kazuma.
I'd met this man quite a few times before when dealing with Ma, but he was usually quite low-key and rarely expressed his opinions. My impression of him was that he was a hardworking and honest person. How come today—
"Mizuki, where did you learn the Impure World Reincarnation technique?"
"Who gave you the audacity to desecrate the remains of our ancestors?"
"Waima?"
"Is it still that Shingo Uroya?"
In his rage, Jiraiya even called out Lord Uroku's name.
"Oh dear, Jiraiya-sama, don't get so excited!"
Mizuki smiled and waved his hand, declining, "I'm just a lowly ninja, completely obeying Lord Kazuma's orders."
"If you have a temper, don't take it out on me!"
Jiraiya was too lazy to lose his temper with such a nobody. He swept his gaze fiercely over Kazuma in the distance.
Before Jiraiya could say anything, Gamabunta, who was beneath him, understandingly charged towards Kazuma's direction.
However, as soon as Mizuki changed his hand seals, the Senju Hashirama he was controlling flew in front of Jiraiya and clapped his hands together.
"Wood Release: The Advent of the World of Flowering Trees!"
The earth groaned under the weight, and hundreds of giant vines burst forth from the ground, wrapping around Toad Hiro's limbs.
These vines are covered with sharp thorns, and their tips bloom with bewitching red flowers. Visible yellow pollen fumes are emitted from the flower stamens and spread rapidly to the surrounding area.
At the same time, Itachi Uchiha, who had just been knocked away, recovered and, disregarding his injuries, rushed to Kazuma and activated Susanoo again, firmly protecting Kazuma and the others behind him.
