The younger Uzumaki simply hasn't had to deal with the same level of opponents yet and hasn't gained experience, making mistakes that are sometimes obvious to the more experienced kunoichi, which can be used to catch her.
Mito and I try to reduce their number, sometimes with painful lessons, but life and mortal danger is the best teacher, and this is what Tomato does not get, because the jinchuriki still to some extent guardianship, not letting you stick your head in the lion's mouth and go on overly difficult missions.
In such a situation, the fights with Pakura, which was just at my level, are remembered with a sense of deep satisfaction and a desire to visit Suna again.
- I've already prepared everything to extract the soul and apply the seal," Kaguya brought me back to reality.
- Good, then we can get started right away," I nodded, taking out the scroll and handing it to him.
I nodded, taking out the scroll and handing it to him, noting that it would be a great time-saver to have a helper who could understand you at a glance and know what to do.
Spend quality pumping Seishi no Ibuki and you can discount a lot of routine, like drawing assortments for the fuin shop or individual orders that require a lot of my attention, but do not contribute to the development.
Kage bunshin is a great tool, but as a temporary option, not when you're far away from home and just can't clone from there, like the last mission situation from the clan. Last chance scrolls will run out someday, yes, so a more reliable option is needed.
As the added bonuses of having a kanpeki ningyo at home - one would be able to return from anywhere in the world when needed and keep up to date even without being there in person.
Kaguya laid the motionless body on a rolled out scroll with a set of seals and then activated it, infusing a very solid amount of chakra, nearly emptying his own reserve. And unlike last time, when the soul of shinobi flew out with a kick, almost instantly, now it took a few seconds before the body began to pull out of the visible past owner.
It was happening slowly and with a noticeable resistance from Rasa, despite the unconsciousness of the latter.
- Boss, give me some chakra," Hisato turned around worriedly, "I probably don't have enough!
I didn't hesitate, jumping up and pouring chakra into the Kanpeki Ningyo (Perfect Marionette) seal. This sped things up and the shinobi's soul was ripped from his body, but even so, unlike the usual jonins who disappeared almost instantly, Rasa deliberately looked around at us with a face contorted with rage and even stretched out his ghostly hands, clearly aware of the murder in progress, but then he began to melt away.
Once I was sure the carcass was free of its host, albeit at the cost of nearly half of my reserve, I sighed in relief and ripped my hand away from the seal, rising from my knee.
What had happened a few moments earlier made me remember my own thoughts, that a chakra user who crosses a certain threshold of strength, partially transitions to a more perfect form of existence, starting to depend less on the body and some part of cognitive functions is taken over by chakra.
Most likely, the more powerful a ninja is, the more noticeable it is in situations like this. Orochimaru's memory from his past life came back to him, somehow related to what had happened earlier, but no specifics, just the certainty of a connection.
