Chapter 108: Onoki the Fence-Sitter
Konoha Village.
"Damn! Iwagakure and Cloud Shinobi Village were chosen!"
"As far as the strength of the ninjas in the village is concerned, Konoha now has the Sannin and Hokage-sama. Why did they choose those two villages?"
Konoha Shinobi felt sorry for themselves. But the Jōnins seemed to understand a little bit. This was no random pick! Konoha had lost two world wars in a row, so Konoha was not qualified to represent their own world to fight again immediately. Naturally, it was necessary to rotate to other villages.
On the other hand, why hasn't the defending faction been changed? Because they have been winning, so if they want to continue to represent their own world, they must continue to win. At the same time, as the first force to be selected, the Marines were the most powerful force in the Pirate world. The strongest force in the Ninja World was Konoha, but it was a pity that Konoha lost consecutive battles, so it was replaced.
Although this rule had not been announced, it implied that if a force was defeated twice, it would rotate to the next force.
Watching the ninjas in the village complain about bad luck, Kakashi sighed and looked at Might Guy, who had the same gloomy face beside him. The two looked at each other with understanding. Obviously, everyone understood that this was not a question of luck at all. This was caused by Konoha's successive failures.
Of course, this kind of thing couldn't be said aloud. If ordinary ninjas knew, would they blame the ninjas who participated before? Blame Lord Hokage? Blame the Sannin?
Kakashi and Might Guy didn't care much about fame, but they blamed themselves because they had participated in the battle but did not win for Konoha. However, the prestige of the Hokage and Sannin could not be damaged like this.
Clenching his fist tightly, Kakashi opened his mouth and said to Guy, "Guy! It seems that we have to practice hard!"
Hearing this, Guy was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. "Yes! Can we just let it go like this? Next time we have to beat those people properly, or we will be ashamed! This is the power of youth!"
"Let's start the special training!"
The pair of good friends smiled at the same time.
In the light curtain, the looters of the Ninja World had been confirmed!
[Offender: Third Tsuchikage, Onoki the Fence-Sitter]
Looking at the displayed name, Kakashi froze for a moment. "Third Tsuchikage... Is he going to do it himself?"
Might Guy asked, "Although the Third Tsuchikage is the only ninja who possesses Bloodline Selection in the Ninja World, can he still deal with those terrifying guys at his age?"
"Bloodline Selection? What is that?" Rock Lee, who was following Guy, asked.
Just when Guy was about to explain, a battle scene about the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, appeared on the light curtain.
White light pierced through the void. A cube of white light that erupted from the palms of Onoki's hands suddenly turned into a beam of light and charged into the distance. A terrifying explosion suddenly formed.
This amazing destructive power surprised everyone in the Pirate World. They didn't expect this old man, whose hair was about to fall out, to be so strong! The weird light emitted was so powerful.
"I didn't expect that little old man to be so powerful," Sengoku said, looking at the arena where Yuichi and others were surrounded by light.
At the front edge of the duel field, a small platform appeared with ten seats. Yuichi and the others were transported to sit in these positions. After everyone except Yuichi saw Onoki's power, they were all a little surprised. This person's attack power was huge, but the special thing was this white ray, which was somewhat similar to Marine Admiral Kizaru.
What ability is this? No need to ask; the answer had already been given on the light curtain.
[Third Tsuchikage, Onoki of the great Fence-Sitter]
[The only extant ninja in the Ninja World who possesses Kekkei Tōta (Bloodline Selection)]
[Chakra that combines three attributes to form a super power: Dust Release (Particle Style)]
[Battle Evaluation: S-Rank]
The data card was displayed, letting people know the name of Onoki's ability.
But now, after reading this material, Sengoku suddenly had many questions. 'The Chakra that fuses three attributes... the power formed... Dust Release!'
With just such a brief introduction, Sengoku had somewhat understood the power system of the opponent's world. Chakra! The power called Chakra had five attributes, which he had learned before. He originally thought that ninjas only had five different forms of energy to fight with, but now there was a new variable: Chakra with different attributes could be fused. Combined with the previous titles involving Fire Style and Lightning Style, Sengoku determined that there were more "Styles" than just the five basic ones. And these advanced styles were probably a fusion of more than two kinds of Chakra.
Like Devil Fruits—Paramecia, Zoan, Logia—there were three categories but different abilities, and the ever-changing abilities were not so easy to deal with. Ninjas seemed to have similar qualities.
'Chakra... the power is not simple at all!' Sengoku sighed inwardly.
At this time, other words were displayed on the light curtain again
[Plunderer: Third Tsuchikage, Onoki of the great Fence-Sitter, has decided to challenge his opponent]
[Challenge Opponent: S-Class Combat Power — Marine Admiral Aokiji]
[Confirmed]
[Both parties will be sent into the arena soon]
Aokiji, sitting on the special seat at the edge of the arena, froze for a second. "Did you choose me?"
Aokiji looked at Yuichi next to him. "That's right! That old man probably doesn't want to fight a monster like you!"
As Onoki had S-Class combat power, the opponents he could choose must also be S-Class. Of course, if it wasn't Yuichi, it could only be Aokiji. Although Aokiji admitted that Yuichi was better than himself, he was also very upset that he was selected. It felt like he was being singled out as the weakling
Yuichi smiled. "Be careful! That old man's Dust Release is not easy. It's better not to get hit!"
Hearing this, Aokiji nodded.
White light flashed and Onoki appeared on the duel field. At the same time, Aokiji was also teleported in. The countdown was ten seconds; the battle was about to begin.
At this time, Whitebeard, Kaido, Sengoku, Garp, and others in the auditorium all began to cheer up. The old man on the other side obviously looked very difficult opponent. The ability of Dust Release was a terrifying force formed by the fusion of three attributes of Chakra. What was this Dust Release like? They would have to see it for themselves!
At the same time, the ninjas in the Ninja World were also very curious about the legendary Bloodline Selection. It was rumored to surpass the Bloodline Limit. What kind of power did it have?
