Hatake Satoru didn't really expect this guy to honestly bring him any help. However, sealing techniques were a bit of a trouble for him.
Especially with someone like Hozuki Mangetsu locked inside. If it wasn't for the person inside, Hatake Satoru could have just used force to break the seal.
Hatake Satoru himself didn't have Chakra, but usually that wasn't a big deal.
However, under these sealing technique conditions, it was a different story.
This wasn't something offensive, so you couldn't defend against it or attack it. You needed someone with Chakra to undo it.
Hatake Satoru quickly figured things out.
"Gather all those scrolls together and arrange them in this way. Then I'll tell you how to undo it."
Hatake Satoru blinked and then directed the ninja next to him to gather the scattered scrolls and arrange them in a strange order.
"What kind of method is this...?"
The ninja, who was being ordered around, hurriedly rearranged the scrolls on the ground. He occasionally looked up at Hatake Satoru standing to the side.
He had never seen this kind of method before. It was originally a sealing technique that was supposed to be used by multiple people together.
To be able to solve it with one person was unheard of.
He didn't know what was going on, and he didn't dare to ask Hatake Satoru, so he just mumbled a sentence.
It was like he was complaining about something.
Hatake Satoru didn't seem to be in a hurry to look at the scrolls at all. Those clear blue eyes that could see through everything were just staring straight at him.
The ninja looked up and met his gaze, then quickly lowered his head to arrange the scrolls in his hands. Unless there was a special situation, it was better not to look this guy in the eye.
It felt like he could see right through all your secrets.
Although Hatake Satoru's eyes weren't as strange as the Sharingan, where something was about to happen as soon as you opened your eyes.
But this person's eyes were even faintly glowing, which made him look really indescribable.
It was as if this person wasn't even human.
Those eyes were like a god seeing through everything. This feeling of pressure was overwhelming.
"It's all arranged."
The ninja struggled to move all the scrolls on the ground and put together the shape that Hatake Satoru had directed.
It looked like he had arranged the scrolls into the shape of a "person". However, the length and range of the scrolls were limited.
This ninja didn't know what Hatake Satoru was planning to do. He had never seen this kind of method before.
"Just lie on it and undo the technique. It's the same method you used back then."
Hatake Satoru said casually, and then he walked behind the water tank and fiddled with the machinery there.
The ninja crouched in front of the scrolls. Although he had never seen this Ninjutsu before.
But instinctively, he had a bad feeling. He didn't know what Hatake Satoru was up to, but if he went up there to undo the seal.
He would probably die.
He watched Hatake Satoru go behind the water tank to fiddle with the machinery, and then he looked at the corpse lying behind him, and the not-too-distant door.
Right now... if he tried to escape.
His thoughts stopped abruptly, and a voice suddenly interrupted his thinking.
"Don't always think about running away~"
"If you keep testing me like this, I'll get a little bored."
"Sealing techniques can't kill people. You know that, right?"
"I'm not some terrible villain either. If you undo this seal, I'll let you live."
"But if you run, you'll end up like them."
"That would be a shame~"
Hatake Satoru curled his lips and gave a pitiful expression.
Although it felt like this guy's words weren't trustworthy, his only choice was to undo the seal since escaping meant certain death.
The ninja obediently lay down on a pile of sealing scrolls, made hand signs, and then whispered.
"Release."
At the same time, Hatake Satoru pulled down the control lever next to him. The water tank made a buzzing sound, and then it began to leak a light green liquid.
Hozuki Mangetsu's body quickly dissolved in the light green liquid. After all the water had flowed out, Hozuki Mangetsu's figure gradually reformed in the water.
The ground was covered in blood, mixed with the light green water that gave off a strange odor. The whole room smelled weird...
"Ugh, Teacher—"
As soon as Hozuki Mangetsu's body reformed, he wanted to rush straight towards Hatake Satoru.
He was soaking wet and smelled like disinfectant. Hatake Satoru slightly frowned in disgust.
Then Hatake Satoru held out one hand in front of Hozuki Mangetsu. Hatake Satoru watched as the water that Hozuki Mangetsu brought with him was about to splash on him.
But luckily, it was completely blocked by his Limitless technique.
"Don't come over, being wet is disgusting—"
"Go take care of those things on you first, and then go to the next room."
Hatake Satoru was already disgusted enough with the current environment of this room. This room wasn't very big to begin with, and now it was not only quite crowded, but it also felt disgusting.
There were corpses and blood everywhere, as well as that unknown liquid. Everything was wet, so Hatake Satoru disgustedly lifted his foot, found the encrypted scroll, and then left.
Hozuki Mangetsu grinned, revealing a set of white, shark-like teeth.
A few drops of the strange liquid in the water flowed down from his hanging bangs and dripped directly into his mouth.
Hozuki Mangetsu immediately made a bitter face, frowned, spat twice, and then stepped over the corpses to go to the bathroom.
"It tastes so bitter. What is it?"
The person who had been lying on the scrolls to undo the sealing technique before was no longer alive. It looked like he had forcibly used a sealing technique that was originally supposed to be used by multiple people alone.
It must have used all of his Chakra, and he was no longer alive.
Hozuki Mangetsu didn't know much about sealing techniques because in Konoha and the countries over here.
Or rather, the sealing techniques in the countries across the sea were basically done by the Uzumaki clan, or some other inherited sealing techniques.
In Kirigakure, most of the time, they used people with bloodline limits to do this.
There were so many people with bloodline limits in their village that it was almost like they were selling them. There were so many fancy ones.
You just can't learn bloodline limits. They get passed down in families.
So, there was nowhere for Hozuki Mangetsu to learn about sealing techniques.
