BXBX NOVEL Chapter 652
Chapter 652: So the battle Continues…
Roar…!
…
On Homusubi’s side.
Puff…
Homusubi staggered slightly and vomited a mouthful of blood as Danzo’s roar reached her ears.
Danzo’s roar seemed to contain demonic chakra; it was loud and piercing to listeners’ ears, sounded highly unsettling, and rocked the spirits of everyone in the cave. Even Homusubi was not saved, as her spiritual body suffered some damage.
“Cough-cough… It’s practically impossible to defend against his abilities…!” Homusubi mumbled as she coughed and stood up again.
Her spirit body has only become strong enough to withstand the shock of Danzo’s roar because she has been accustomed to employing the Tenseigan Soul Descend… Based on the extent of the harm she sustained, she can safely assume that if someone else had been in her position, their soul would have been broken instantly!
But she also understands that if she is continually subjected to Danzo’s roar, she, too, will not be spared and will suffer irreversible damage.
Tsukihi realised this and raised her defence to protect herself from Danzo’s scream. She then refocused her attention on the battle in front of her and tried to think of a way to take advantage of it.
Apart from the Ninjutsu battles and the melee war between the two Susano’o, the main battle taking place inside the volcano is the competition to absorb more and more Yin-Yang Chakra via the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan… Despite the fact that it wasn’t initiated by Homusubi, given her character, she would neither repent nor back away from what had started…
As a result, she is fully committed to winning this struggle…
Tsukihi switched her focus to the Yin-Yang Chakra and the power of the Creation of All Things, then examined the current situation, with such goals.
“Given the situation and Danzo’s foolish behaviour of boosting the power of Chakra Transmission above the maximum limit, it wouldn’t be surprising if by the time the ritual continues to the next stage, all the fifteen hundred shinobi outside the cave will be annihilated,” Homusubi grumbled.
There is no doubt that raising the Transmission Array’s power will enhance the Chakra supply for the ceremony, but the Chakra is ultimately limited by the life energy and spiritual force… As a result, the higher the chakra supply, the more quickly it will be depleted.
As a result, once all of the chakra has been utilised and all of the shinobi outside have been eliminated, the chakra supply will be cut off. In other words, it is reasonable to assume that the supply of chakra will be depleted before the ceremony can be completed.
Homusubi was comforted when she realised this and cast another glance at Shimura Danzo, who stood on the altar.
Danzo feels anxious and depraved right now… His face has turned horrible, with a deformed expression that gives others an odd sense. ‘Although the use of Cursed Seal has alleviated the problem of soul conflict in Danzo’s body, it is not a permanent solution,’ Homusubi thought to herself as she analysed his condition. The Cursed Seal contained Natural Energy, which not only destroyed the souls of the other persons inside Danzo’s body, but also damaged Danzo’s soul to some extent, making it exceedingly unstable…
‘At first, I assumed that after awakening the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan his soul had stabilised, but that does not appear to be the case.’
Finally, Orochimaru’s answer to the problem of soul fusion can be regarded to be overly harsh.
But, come to think of it, that isn’t the case if Orochimaru’s purpose is taken into account…
If Homusubi is correct, Orochimaru’s goal in implanting the Cursed in Danzo’s body was to dissolve all the souls in Danzo’s body, leaving behind an empty shell with seven separate Kekkei Genkai fused in it. Clearly, he intended to employ his Forbidden Jutsu Corpse Soul Reincarnation to capture that flawless shell.
It’s only that Orochimaru’s plans didn’t pan out, and the situation has now reached this point.
‘Sigh… he’s always causing others trouble…’ Tsukihi sighed quietly to herself.
This ceremony was expected to fail in Homusubi’s design, therefore allowing Danzo to participate had no ramifications… However, Orochimaru’s deed of implanting the Cursed in Danzo’s body during the ceremony changed everything, granting Danzo the ability to survive the rite.
Despite Homusubi’s belief that Danzo will never achieve Kekkei Mora because the supply of chakra will soon run out, the fact that Danzo has survived the most dangerous part of the ritual and now has the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, as well as Wood Release and five other Kekkei Genkai, is still a very troubling situation.
Homusubi took a big breath and said, “Susano’o…!” knowing full well that she couldn’t let the situation get out of her control.
Susano’o proceeded to the next stage with a pair of wings at the rear and four arms, each brandishing a golden flame sword, as the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan in her eyes spun faster with her yell.
Roar…
The evolved Susano’o threw up a thunderous yell…
Homusubi could feel the increased speed of Yin-Yang chakra absorption from Danzo’s body after completely activating her golden Susano’o…
Danzo couldn’t compete against Homusubi because he wasn’t familiar with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and its different skills, and he was also in the middle of the ritual, so he couldn’t consume too much chakra for fear of dying, so all he could do now was clench his teeth in rage and curse her.
In fact, even if this aspect is ignored, Danzo’s Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan is far inferior to Homusubi’s on its own.
To awaken the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, the conventional approach is to merge two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan… Yin chakras that are quite similar to each other fuse together using this way, giving birth to a stronger and more formidable Yin Chakra, being the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
If the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan is awakened in this way, the overall visual prowess of the pair of eyes improves enormously as the Yang Chakra begins to fuse with the Yin Chakra.
Unfortunately, Danzo’s Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan was not awakened by this means, hence his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan’s visual prowess is inferior to Homusubi’s. That is why, in the war of Visual Prowess, Homusubi enjoys a significant advantage over Danzo.
However, it is important to remember that this Yin-Yang chakra is the result of the fusion of the Yin Chakra and the Yang Chakra within Danzo’s body, which is why Danzo has been able to absorb much of the Yin-Yang chakra from the start…
What Homusubi is absorbing is the part that Danzo is unable to absorb directly, yet even that small quantity is significant and aids Homusubi in the development of her Dojutsu.
The Chakra transmission array exhibited slight fluctuations as the battle for Dojutsu evolution continued.
Despite the fact that the fluctuations were minor, Danzo and Homusubi both recognised what they meant. Both of them were well understood that the Chakra supply was approaching its maximum and that it may be cut off at any time.
Danzo and Homusubi exchanged glances when they realised what had happened.
Because the supply of chakra is going to run out, the chance of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan evolving into a higher level of Dojutsu is also about to stop…
However, there is a slim chance that one couple will evolve…
