Chapter 103: Is this Irony?

“Nobu!”

Seeing the companion being turned to dust in just one blow, Yusuke and the other Sand ninjas were filled with grief and anger.

But even more than the grief or anger, there was the feeling of dread, in the desperate state they were all trembling with fear and lost their will to fight.

Everyone eyed the black Orbs with horrifying expressions!

No one could have imagined that these balls not only have the impeccable defense but also such an offense that the victim will instantaneously turn to dust!

That’s practically cheating!

Beckoning back the orb that turned Nobu into dust, Kuroto remained calm all the while.

Using a simple Kunai to block Truth-Seeking Balls is beyond idiotic, so he wasn’t much surprised by the result, it was all too reasonable.

But there was still a problem that Kuroto frowned upon.

A mere sand Jonin who was already in a panicked state could actually carry out the action of blocking by taking out a kunai in the mere moments it took for the black Ball to strike him under Kuroto’s command, even if the defense didn’t actually succeed, this still shows a problem!

What that problem is?

This shows that the speed of the attack wasn’t fast enough, it is still too far from what Kuroto expects them to move.

Truth-Seeking balls are amazingly strong but if the attack doesn’t even hit the target, what good would they do?

There is no shortage of fast people in the shinobi world, so unless his attack hits the target, otherwise it is all meaningless.

“It is still my lack of control!” Kuroto feels that improving his control over the truth-Seeking Ball should be put on the agenda as that is the best method through which he can advance to the combat class of Super Kage and beyond.

While Kuroto was mulling over these thoughts, the only remaining Sand Jonin Yusuke shouted to the six chunin around him, “I’ll make sure to hold him off and you guys will run in a separate direction, remember we must pass on the information about him back to the village!”

The six chunin have long lost any will to continue to fight, additionally, they also know that waiting here means to be simply waiting for death, so without any need for a reminder, they all separated in different directions.

Kuroto was also bored with the continuous entanglement, so while still in the Tenseigan Chakra Mode he flew high in the air and telekinetically directed the five Truth-Seeking Balls towards the five fleeing Chunin at the fastest speed possible.

As soon as the black orbs came in contact with the five chunin, the ninjas one by one crumbled into dust, and after all the five were gone, all the five black orbs surrounded the last chunin, cutting off all his escape routes, and slowly divided his body into several parts that further turned into dust.

Without even a moment to pass, all the six chunin were already dead!

Seeing them all die so suddenly, Yusuke shouted hysterically, “You bastard, didn’t I say that I will be fighting with you!”

Kuroto glanced at Yusuke thoughtfully.

Using all the Chakra, Yusuke formed several hand seals.

Bang…

Accompanied by a muffled noise, a huge sand wave rushed out of dunes blocking Kuroto’s path.

Immediately afterward, the giant Sandworm crawling under the sand dunes also raised half of its body; and with its mouth opened in Kuroto’s directions showing the large teeth, it appeared as if it will swallow him whole.

At this time Yusuke completed his seal printing and shouted in agitation, “Secret Technique: Sand and Earth Net Binding!”

Followed by the shout, a very viscous type of clayey soil was sprayed from his mouth, and at the same time, another type of viscous liquid was sprayed out of the Sandworm’s mouth.

The two types of spray collided and merged together in mid-air and turned into a giant net that covered hundreds of meters in the sky, accompanied by the wind, the net was directed towards Kuroto who was hovering in mid-air as he observed everything carefully.

Since Kuroto wasn’t sure whether this slimy net was poisonous or corrosive, so using the black orbs he immediately blocked the section around him.

While Kuroto defended against the attack, his attention was directed somewhere else as he curled his lips scornfully.

In the Tenseigan vision, Kuroto perceived that taking the advantage of Kuroto’s attention being diverted, the Jonin Yusuke immediately jumped into the belly of the Sandworm, which dived directly into the sand and sneaked several meters below ground.

There is no doubt that Yusuke planned to escape by hiding in the stomach of his summoned beast Sandworm from the beginning.

Even the order he gave to the chunin ninjas of himself staying behind and letting them all escape was just a method to divert Kuroto’s attention but unfortunately for him the six chunin died too fast that they couldn’t even stall enough time for him to take any action.

The bait was useless, as Kuroto was too fast, so Yusuke had no other choice but to rely on some secret technique to try and escape.

But it’s just that it was still all pointless.

“Pathetic!” – while muttering in disdain, Kuroto immediately got rid of whatever this secret technique was.

And at the same time, he flew parallel to the sand and followed the sandworm from above the ground.

The position of the Giant Sandworm was quite deep inside and its traveling speed was also rather fast; if it were any other ninja in Kuroto’s stead then Yusuke would have definitely escaped but it’s a pity that he got unlucky!

For Kuroto with the Tenseigan, tracking the giant sandworm and Yusuke was no big deal.

Conforming their trajectory, Kuroto stretched out his right hand slightly in a gesture of holding a sword.

Immediately all the Black Orbs floating at his back merged together at his palm, to which Kuroto focused a tremendous amount of his Chakra and muttered in a cold and indifferent tone, “Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!”

Instantly, out of the spiraling large black orb, a Giant Long Sword of several hundred meters, made of pure Chakra that looked as dazzling as the sun itself appeared in Kuroto’s hand.

“whew… Now that’s what I call amazing!” – muttered Kuroto in the awe of his own power. Even if he knew of it, even if he expected it, but when the real thing was in his hands, Kuroto can’t help but wonder at the power the sword holds in it.

With this sword in his hands, Kuroto felt omnipotent!

He felt that he could split apart continents!

In a sense, he now understands why the world was too small for Madara and Hashirama to play around with!

Faintly glancing at the sand dune below to reconfirm the Sandworm’s position, Kuroto swung the Golden Sword that was hundreds of meters long without any hesitation.

Huala…

It felt as if space itself would be divided by its power!

There was a deep divide in the entire land; up to several kilometres.

From the divide, a huge amount of blood was sprayed out.

Kuroto glanced below only to find that the giant sandworm that was hidden more than a hundred meters deep had been cut in half along the vertical axis, i.e., from head to tail, by the swipe of the Golden Sword.

And the blood and fluids that flowed out of its body continued filling the divide.

No matter how powerful the summoned beast was, it couldn’t resist even a single slash of the Golden Sword. This just goes to show how powerful this attack was.

After all, Toneri was able to cut the moon in half with this technique! What is just a mere giant King Sandworm!?

Just as Kuroto was about to deactivate the Golden Sword, he suddenly discovered that the Chakra reaction under the sand dunes hadn’t completely disappeared yet!

With a quick confirmation, he found that the Sand Jonin that was hiding in the belly of the Giant Sandworm was lucky enough to escape the range of attack of the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!

Is this irony?

Kuroto murmured with a helpless expression, “Sure enough, even if you become a God, one can never be too careful in this forsaken Shinobi World!”
