Chapter 73 System! Deduction! Let me see your limits!
Onoki shouted:
"Although the army has successfully retreated, Iwagakure lost many powerful ninjas in this battle to cover the retreat, and even their flying units were completely wiped out!
Kitsuchi is your good friend, don't you want to avenge Kitsuchi?!"
"If we don't inflict losses on Konoha at the same level, Iwagakure will be in big trouble later!"
Rōshi remained silent for a long time before weakly replying:
"I only did it for Iwagakure..."
"Whatever!"
Rōshi took a deep breath and communicated with Sun Wukong mentally.
"Four-Tails, please, just one more time..."
"Two Tailed Beast Balls in a row, I'm fine with that, but can you do it?"
"He won't die!"
"Oh well."
With the communication yielding results, the half of Goku on Rōshi's body once again began to condense the Tailed Beast Ball in front of the giant mouth!
"Ughhhh!"
Rōshi once again endured the pain caused to his body by the tailed beast's chakra.
Although it was slower than the previous time, the Tailed Beast Ball was still steadily condensing!
...
"Nagato!"
"Don't do anything reckless! Your body can't take it!"
Yahiko and Konan helped the exhausted Nagato up, preventing him from using the power of the Rinnegan again.
"I'm sorry, Jiraiya-sensei..."
Nagato murmured something, then lost consciousness in Konan's arms.
"Nagato!"
Yahiko glanced at where Jiraiya was.
Jiraiya was only affected by the blast wave, but he was not seriously injured and was still able to move freely.
For a strongman like Jiraiya, as long as he wasn't directly hit by a Tailed Beast Ball, he wouldn't be in any life-threatening danger.
As for the other Konoha ninjas... that's beyond their control.
"Jiraiya-sensei will be alright, let's hurry and go!"
"Good!"
Yahiko and Konan helped Nagato up and left as quickly as possible.
...
Jiraiya glanced at the Konoha ninja army that was scattering in all directions.
Although it's unclear who intervened, the Tailed Beast Ball was blocked without any deaths.
But the Jinchūriki of Iwagakure immediately began to condense the Tailed Beast Ball again.
Although the opponent used the extremely terrifying attack of the Tailed Beast Ball, it also suffered a lot of burden, and the speed of condensation was obviously much slower this time.
However, the astonishing amount of chakra did not decrease, meaning its power was no less than the previous time.
Although it bought time for the Konoha ninja army to disperse, if the Tailed Beast Ball really hits, the casualties will probably still exceed a thousand!
Jiraiya struggled with his expression, but finally said to Minato:
"Get ready, we're going to use Rashomon again."
"Teacher, Rashomon alone won't be enough to stop this!"
"I know!
Weaken it as much as you can!
Listen carefully, I don't want to lose my life here either, so you need to seize the opportunity and use the Flying Thunder God Technique to leave with me the moment Rashomon is destroyed."
Jiraiya said seriously:
"It's up to you this time!"
"teacher..."
Minato looked utterly shocked and finally nodded vigorously.
"Understood! I will definitely do it!"
...
When Souji emerged, it was precisely at the moment the first Tailed Beast Ball was launched.
Seeing that there were no serious casualties, the Souji breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he didn't see anyone, Souji immediately thought of the invisible force that greatly weakened the Tailed Beast Ball as Shinra Tensei.
"Helping others is helping yourself.
It seems that doing good deeds will indeed bring good fortune.
It was worth giving them two million ryo of silver."
Souji smiled with satisfaction, then turned his gaze back to the second Tailed Beast Ball that was beginning to condense.
Sasori followed and came out.
"It's too late to get there now, but even if we did, it wouldn't matter.
That kind of thing can't be stopped by ordinary means."
Sasori glanced at the Tailed Beast Ball and his eyes widened in shock.
Back in Sunagakure, he had heard that the Kazekage's iron sand could suppress the tailed beast Shukaku.
Although they were different-tailed beasts, if he could get closer to the attack range, the Kazekage's puppet should still have a chance to fight back.
But at such a distance, if such a powerful blow lands, no number of puppets could withstand it.
"No need to block it, just interrupt it before it's launched."
As the Souji spoke, he mentally manipulated the system.
"With all my understanding, with the ninja way I've cultivated throughout my life, with my boundless wisdom, and with my invincible talent!"
"System! Deduction! Let me see your limits!"
"Deduction of the Moonlit Style Kunai Throwing Technique: Flying Star!"
The Flowing Kunai Throwing Technique: Flying Star is a ninjutsu created by Souji's grandfather, the only special jonin from the Mochizuki family, but it was never completed before his death.
The concept and general framework of the technique have been preserved.
It is a technique that uses a large amount of chakra to accumulate power and increase the attack range of kunai by increasing power.
The technique itself could be said to be basically complete, but the ratio of chakra consumption to power enhancement was inefficient.
It consumed a lot of chakra and provided little improvement, resulting in a very low cost-effectiveness ratio and no practical value.
In the end, even Souji's grandfather was unable to perfect this aspect.
However, today, Souji incorporated everything he had about his ninja way into this technique, and with the system's tiny bit of help, he completed it!
[Using one self-created ninjutsu deduction opportunity, the deduction of Mochizuki-ryu Kunai Throwing Technique: Flying Star has been completed.]
Souji suddenly opened his eyes wide, gripped the kunai upside down, raised his arm, and assumed a javelin-throwing posture.
"Um?"
Sasori was slightly taken aback.
What are they trying to do?
Is Mochizuki Souji... going to attack the Jinchuriki from this distance?
A large amount of chakra gathered in his right arm.
At this moment, Souji's arm seemed to have used part of the Akimichi family's multiplication technique, swelling up much larger than before, with veins and blood vessels bulging out menacingly!
Feeling the surge in power and the accompanying pain, Souji mentally assessed the technique:
"Ouch! Although the cost-effectiveness ratio of chakra consumption to power amplification is quite good, the side effect is that this charging phase really hurts!"
"Because I have a fast recovery, the damage to my body caused by the technique can be immediately offset, so apart from the extreme pain, there are no other problems.
However, if someone else uses it, they can't use it at full power like me. They have to reduce the power.
Otherwise, if a Jonin or lower uses it once, their arm will probably be ruined."
As the Souji analyzed the situation, his power continued to increase.
Strength increased by 1x...2x...3x...5x...
Strength increased tenfold!
That's the limit!
"Moonlight Style: Throwing Technique - Flying Star!"
Souji took a step forward and threw the kunai with all his might!
The kunai transformed into a black streak of light, flying towards Rōshi like lightning!
"Um!?"
"This is...oh no!"
The kunai flew to a very close distance in an instant.
The two of them reacted at this moment, but Rōshi was in the process of condensing the Tailed Beast Ball and could not move.
Ignoring the potential harm from the tailed beast's chakra, Onoki grabbed Rōshi with one hand and pulled him away with all his might!
