Chapter 194 Mission Completed
Faced with the overwhelming power of Shisui's miraculous Susanoo and Yasaka Magatama, Sasori's painstakingly crafted Crimson Secret Technique: Hundred Puppet Manipulation completely lost its greatest advantage of numbers.
Every wave of the red energy giant's hand, every toss of the magatama, was like a natural disaster, easily tearing apart and crushing large swathes of the intricate puppets into dust like toys! The puppets' poisoned weapons and tricky attacks became laughable child's play in the face of Susanoo's absolute defense and terrifying power.
The outcome of the battle was no longer in doubt.
After the last puppet was smashed to pieces by Susanoo's giant hand, the entire desert battlefield finally returned to silence for the time being, with only the howling wind and the pervasive smell of burning flesh remaining.
Looking around, the sand was densely covered with all sorts of fragmented puppet remains, like a huge junkyard.
Seeing that all the puppets had been completely destroyed, Shisui finally breathed a long sigh of relief. The pattern of the Mangekyou Sharingan in his eyes slowly faded, and the majestic red Susanoo also disappeared into the air like a phantom.
The immense exertion caused him to feel a strong sense of fatigue, and he couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh.
However, amidst the chaotic remains of the puppets, something extremely strange was moving silently—two dark red cylinders, each about the thickness of an adult's arm, with bizarre fleshy tissue growing on their surfaces, resembling heart muscles and constantly pulsating slightly!
It is using some damaged puppet parts as cover, silently trying to burrow deeper into the sand, hoping to escape this place!
This is Sasori's core! His last hope of escape!
"Oh! Found it! We can't let you get away like this! Hmm!"
Deidara had been waiting for this moment! With lightning speed and perfect precision, he grabbed the strange core that was trying to escape, completely extinguishing Sasori's last escape route!
The core of the scorpion emanated a dull, angry vibration in Deidara's hand.
Deidara showed no mercy. Without hesitation, he stuffed Sasori's bizarre core into a lump of specially prepared explosive clay that he had prepared beforehand!
The clay rapidly writhed and enveloped the core, trapping it completely inside, leaving only a tiny bit of the pulsating "heart" exposed, rendering it utterly immobile.
"Alright, behave yourself!" Deidara waved the scorpion covered in clay in his hand triumphantly. "This is my specially made enhanced version of explosive clay. I advise you to be a good boy and come back with us obediently."
He gave a wicked smile and added, his tone full of undisguised threat.
"If you dare to misbehave, or try to get too far away from me... hmph, then I'll just have to turn you into my masterpiece! Hmm!"
After Deidara completely sealed Sasori's bizarre core with special clay, he went to the back. Shisui was sitting on the ground, exhausted, trying to catch his breath, while Haku was supporting Zabuza, whose chakra was greatly depleted.
Deidara reached into his ninja tool pouch again, and the strange organs in his hands rapidly secreted and spewed out large amounts of explosive clay. Before long, another enormous C2 dragon was quickly created, lying prone on the sand, waiting to carry everyone.
The mission objective has been achieved... Although the process was a bit intense, it's time to return to the organization's base.
However, they were unaware that, in the shadow of a weathered rock pillar in the far distance, two extremely eerie figures were silently watching everything.
At the top of the rock pillar, only a head, half black and half white, was visible—it was Jue. He whispered in that hoarse and eerie tone.
"The target... has been snatched away by the [Ember] organization again. And those eyes... it's really unsettling that the enemy possesses this kind of power."
Beside him, a mysterious masked man wearing an orange swirling one-eyed mask and a black robe with red clouds from the Akatsuki organization—Uchiha Obito—responded in a modified, deep, and indifferent voice.
"It's alright, he's just a rogue ninja, not irreplaceable. The next target should already be decided, right?"
Zetsu's plant-like leaves swayed slightly as she replied, "Hmm... I recently discovered that the Sky Village, which was destroyed by Konoha many years ago, seems to still have remnants operating in the shadows, and they possess some interesting technologies."
"Furthermore, Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin, seems to be secretly gathering information about our Akatsuki. Should we eliminate him?"
Obito remained silent for a moment, his single eye beneath the mask gleaming with thoughtful consideration. "...No, don't act yet. It's not too late to make a decision after you've seen that guy in person."
He paused, then asked another, more crucial question. "So, regarding the leader of the [Ember] organization, that [Menma]... has his true identity been found?"
Jue's voice carried a hint of helplessness and frustration. "No... we can't find anything at all. That person has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, and his whereabouts are unpredictable. It's impossible to track his movements or the location of his stronghold... At this stage, it's probably not the time to engage in a direct battle with that madman."
Obito's brow furrowed slightly beneath his mask, and he didn't immediately respond to the refusal. His gaze remained fixed on the C2 clay dragon carrying Shisui and the others as it slowly ascended and disappeared into the distance. A question lingered in his mind, refusing to dissipate:
Uchiha Shisui used a Susanoo-level eye technique... but it seems his expenditure was far less than expected... Although the [Jin] organization obtained the legacy left by Danzo, none of them should know how to conduct this kind of research...
Could it be that... they've found some other way... to replenish the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan, or even delay blindness?
This thought made Obito feel a subtle unease. Finally, he slowly raised his hand and pressed it against his spiral mask. His entire figure began to distort and blur, as if he had been sucked into another dimension, and he silently and completely disappeared from the spot.
