Chapter 103: Jiraiya VS Utakata
Seeing Utakata standing on a tree branch, with a comfortable expression on his face.
Many Sand Ninja showed anger on their faces because of Utakata's words just now, but the next moment, they all froze for a moment.
"Mist Village!"
"It's someone from the Mist Village! Could it be that the Sand Village has already allied with the Mist Village?"
Not only did Jiraiya see the forehead protector on Utakata's body, but the other Sand Ninja naturally saw it as well.
Jiraiya paid no attention to the Sand Ninja below, who were almost crippled by him.
He hurriedly raised his head, cautiously sizing up his surroundings, looking for figures of other Mist Ninja.
"No need to look, I am the only one who came here."
Utakata raised the flute in his hand, with a look of indifference on his face.
One person?
Jiraiya's action, prepared to search for surrounding Mist Ninja, froze, and then he suddenly laughed, stood up, and looked at Utakata saying:
"Kid, it seems you don't know who I am?"
"Let me tell you, I am from Mount Myoboku..."
Jiraiya was jumping an exaggerated dance on Gamabunta's head while speaking, but halfway through his words, Utakata's voice rang out.
"Jiraiya, one of the Sannin, I know."
Utakata nodded, still with an indifferent look.
"Is that so, have I been looked down upon." Jiraiya stopped his movements, and the expression on his face became serious.
Looked down upon?
"I certainly wouldn't look down upon the legendary Sannin; if I really looked down on you, I wouldn't have appeared here."
Utakata shook his head lightly, inserted the flute in his hand back into his waist, and his whole body suddenly jumped into mid-air.
The next instant, a large amount of Chakra instantly surged out from within Utakata's body.
A dark red Chakra cloak covered Utakata's whole body, and six tails made entirely of Chakra swayed behind Utakata's back.
Half Tailed Beast Transformation!
The terrifying Chakra fluctuations made the many Sand Ninja below unable to help shivering all over!
"Six-Tails Jinchuriki!"
Jiraiya spat out these words with a somewhat stiff expression; he now finally knew why the other party dared to come out here alone.
Whoosh!
Utakata, having jumped into mid-air and completed the Tailed Beast Transformation, showed no tendency to fall at all; instead, his body paused in the air.
The six Chakra tails violently whipped, turning directly into a streak of red light in the air, attacking towards Jiraiya at extreme speed!
Too fast!
By the time Jiraiya reacted, Utakata had already appeared at a position not far in front of him.
Jiraiya stomped violently, his body quickly jumping backward, while his hands formed seals!
Ninjutsu — Needle Jizo!
White hair grew rapidly, starting to harden continuously; in the blink of an eye, the white hair had firmly protected Jiraiya within it, while every single hair stabbed forward like a steel needle!
At this moment, Utakata also appeared in front of Jiraiya, raising his claws wrapped in the Chakra cloak, and fiercely slapped down.
Crash!
Steel needles pierced through the palm wrapped in the Chakra cloak in an instant, but at the same time, a large chunk of the hair protecting Jiraiya was also forcibly torn off by Utakata.
Revealing Jiraiya's figure inside!
Seeing this scene, Jiraiya's expression did not change, and the hands hidden under the hair also finished forming seals at the same time.
Ninjutsu — Wild Lion's Mane!
The hair that originally covered his whole body surged again, growing forward at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Utakata standing in front of Jiraiya naturally couldn't even dodge in time and was instantly entangled by the incomparably hard hair, fixed in place.
Even with the blocking of the Chakra cloak, Jiraiya's sharp, needle-like hair still mostly pierced through the Chakra cloak, injuring the Utakata inside.
Utakata let out a low growl, and his whole body suddenly turned dark green.
To be precise, it should be that Utakata's whole body secreted a large amount of strongly corrosive liquid, making the whole body present a dark green state.
The unique ability of the Six-Tailed Rhinoceros Dog — Leech Space!
Hissing —
Jiraiya's Wild Lion's Mane was instantly corroded upon touching these dark green liquids.
After breaking free from Jiraiya's restraints, Utakata's body returned to its dark red state.
His body curled up slightly, then he jumped fiercely backward, appearing in mid-air.
Utakata's stomach contracted slightly, and then his cheeks suddenly puffed up; the next moment, liquid full of acid corrosion was sprayed out by Utakata in one mouthful.
Attacking the Jiraiya and Gamabunta below!
"Gamabunta!"
Jiraiya let out a loud roar.
Just now, the two were fighting on top of Gamabunta's head, so Gamabunta naturally couldn't interfere; but now, Utakata jumped into mid-air, which indeed gave Gamabunta a chance to attack.
As Jiraiya's old partner, Gamabunta had already moved his body before Jiraiya even reminded him.
Water Release — Water Gun! Gamabunta opened his mouth, and several huge water balls sprayed out from his mouth, colliding with the acid corrosion liquid falling from the air.
Emitting sounds of hissing.
Under the dilution of several water balls, the acid corrosion liquid sprayed by Utakata was directly reduced by several levels and sprinkled onto Gamabunta's body.
Although it still corroded a burst of white smoke, it didn't even corrode through Gamabunta's epidermis, so naturally, it had no effect.
After spraying out several water balls, Gamabunta's movements did not stop.
His four limbs exerted slight force, and Gamabunta jumped directly into mid-air.
His whole body was level with Utakata in the air!
Accompanied by a soft ringing sound, Gamabunta pulled out the short sword hanging at his waist; the huge sword blade appeared in mid-air and slashed towards Utakata's direction in the air!
Before the sword body even fell, just the generated airwave cleared a piece of open space out of the forest below.
Seeing the huge sword blade about to slash down, Utakata's figure falling in the air actually showed a momentary pause.
Immediately following, Utakata's whole body suddenly became soft, like softened rubber, and slid directly along the sword blade.
The next instant, Utakata was already standing on the tip of the giant short sword.
Whoosh!
A red light flashed, Utakata's figure had already disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was standing on the tip of a big tree.
One attack missed.
Gamabunta retracted his short sword, and his body also fell from the air at the same time, issuing a loud bang and splashing up a large amount of smoke and dust.
Jiraiya still stood on Gamabunta's head, looking at Utakata in the distance with a solemn face.
The gazes of both parties silently confronted each other in the air!
Strong!
So strong!
Standing below, the Sand Ninja who had long been temporarily forgotten by the two all looked dumbfoundedly at the battle between the two.
Compared to the battle between these two, they discovered that the battle between them and Jiraiya just now was completely child's play.
"The other party is also a Jinchuriki; why, compared to Gaara, is there completely none of that tyrannical aura?"
A Sand Ninja spoke somewhat hesitantly.
"Different from Gaara, the other party's Jinchuriki can already completely control the Tailed Beast's power."
The captain of this Sand Ninja unit spoke with a solemn tone.
"Then what do we do next?" The voice of another Sand Ninja rang out.
After the battle between Jiraiya and Utakata just now, they had long realized that they could not interfere in a battle of this level at all.
Being here was completely just a burden.
