Chapter 194: The Illusion that Envelops the Entire Rain Country
In the end, Nagato agreed to Deidara's request to go to the battlefield with him to fight head-on.
Anyway, it's something that can be solved by an illusion. Deidara likes explosions, so let him explode to his heart's content in the illusion!
The surrender of Iwagakure did not cause any much trouble to the other four major countries and four major ninja villages. The only one who cursed was probably the Daimyo of the Land of Earth - he had asked the Iwagakure to suppress the rebellious Akatsuki, but the Iwagakure surrendered and has now become the branch of the Akatsuki in the Land of Earth.
What should I do as a daimyo? According to the political proposition proposed by the Akatsuki organization, the five major countries and the five major ninja villages should be merged. The rank of ninja is more based on strength, so even if a Kage-level ninja cannot become the Kage of a village in a unified country, he can at least get a high position.
But he, the daimyo of the Land of Earth, relies entirely on blood inheritance. Although he has always declared that his bloodline is noble, he does not think that he is much better than ordinary people. When the time comes, the phoenix will be no better than a chicken, and he might be killed directly!
But soon the Daimyo of the Land of Earth no longer needed to think so much. Uchiha Feiyu directly landed in the capital of the Land of Earth, and then used a set of illusion techniques to capture all the high-ranking officials and nobles of the Land of Earth, naturally including the Daimyo of the Land of Earth.
Afterwards, the Daimyo of the Land of Earth remained silent, but instead strongly supported the policies of the Iwagakure and directly announced the plan of the Land of Earth to join the Akatsuki organization.
The events that took place during this period of time were so overwhelming that ordinary ninjas and civilians in the ninja world felt overwhelmed. There were so many strange and bizarre things happening.
The Akatsuki organization, which had always insisted on so-called dialogue and peaceful communication, was ready to unify the world. The four major ninja villages and the four major countries were ready to join forces to fight against the Akatsuki organization. The 30-strong army of the Land of Earth was completely annihilated when facing the leader of the Akatsuki organization. No one was found alive or dead. The Rock Village surrendered without even a fight...
With so many messy things happening at the same time, the surrender of the Earth Kingdom is not a big deal compared to these things.
The shadow of war soon enveloped the entire ninja world, but the union of the armies of the four major nations and the four ninja villages would take a long time. Even though Nagato had been delayed in the Land of Earth for more than a month, the four major nations had not yet completely gathered their troops.
During this period of time, Uchiha Feiyu's Otsutsuki pure-blooded clone was constantly absorbing the "nutrients" brought by the 30-strong army, and his strength once again made great strides.
The chakra in the bodies of 30 soldiers is not too strong. The difference in the amount of chakra in the ninja world may be so huge that the chakra amount of Uzumaki Naruto alone can exceed that of thousands of jonin, tens of thousands of genin, and more than 10 chakra soldiers.
Those who are even more perverted than him, such as the Nine-Tails and Senju Hashirama, have no less chakra in their bodies than that of 30 soldiers, so all these chakras added together can only be considered a small supplement to Uchiha Toba and Otsutsuki's clones.
However, the soul power and blood power in these soldiers' bodies are definitely not a small number. As soldiers selected from ordinary people, although their chakra talents are very poor, after rigorous military training, the will and physique of these chakra soldiers are far beyond that of ordinary people.
Even though the main body consumed most of the soul power and blood power, just the remaining small part was enough to make the physique of the Otsutsuki clone even more terrifying.
While the four major countries were preparing, Uchiha Feiyu was improving himself. When the four major countries were finished preparing, Uchiha Feiyu's strength was also upgraded.
And this time the Ninja World War has finally begun. The armies and ninjas of the four countries have all entered the Rain Country.
However, even though the Rain Country has developed rapidly in the past few years with the help of the Akatsuki organization and the National Chakra Project, in the final analysis, due to environmental factors and its small land area, the entire Rain Country has a population of only a few million.
At once, another one or two million troops came. The number of troops alone was almost one-third or one-quarter of the entire country. The destructiveness to the Rain Country can be imagined.
These one or two million soldiers all need to eat, drink, defecate and urinate!
Especially those ordinary soldiers who are not ninjas, not only do they need more resources, but the transportation of materials is also far slower than that of ninjas, so it is naturally easiest for them to be eaten by the enemy.
In just a few days, the entire Rain Country was in chaos. Many citizens of the Rain Country left the garrison area with their families to avoid being robbed.
The Akatsuki organization, the Iwagakure, and even the Rain Village of the Rain Country also formed a line of defense outside the Four-Nation Alliance. Although it didn't have much effect, it at least comforted their hearts and prevented some ordinary chakra soldiers of the Four-Nation Alliance from wreaking havoc and destroying the entire Rain Country.
"Finally, everyone has gathered together... The speed of these troops' actions is too slow!"
At the top of the Four-Nation Alliance, Uzumaki Nagato stood thousands of meters in the air with his hands folded across his chest. The air around him was refracted and bent by him, concealing his figure.
During this period, the reason why he did not take action in the first time was because the actions of the Four-Nation Alliance were dragging their feet. It was not until today that all the troops gathered together.
"Then it's time to serve the real dish!"
He took out a Sharingan crystal ball from his hand. The Rain Country had already been transformed by Uchiha Feiyu himself. The entire country had turned into a huge illusion array. Only this one eye of the array was missing. The entire illusion array would be activated instantly, pulling all the ninjas in this land into the illusion array.
Unless one has the mental strength to resist the illusion-type Mangekyō, even a Kage-level ninja will definitely not be able to withstand this small-scale infinite Tsukuyomi illusion. According to Uchiha Feiyu's calculations, although there are many ninjas and chakra soldiers who came to the Rain Country, there are no truly strong ones.
The few ninjas who can resist Uchiha Feiyu's illusion are all Uchiha Feiyu's own men, so there is no need to worry at all.
The light red light spread rapidly, covering the entire Rain Country. The three magatama symbols appeared in the eyes of all the ninjas, chakra soldiers, and even ordinary people in the Feather Country.
Uzumaki Nagato, standing in the sky, poured his own chakra into the Sharingan crystal ball in his hand, sensing all the ninjas controlled by the chakra. Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows slightly and hummed softly:
"Huh? I didn't expect there would be a fish that slipped through the net?"
Today's Uzumaki Nagato, as a Six Paths puppet controlled by Uchiha Hiha, has a perception ability that is only slightly inferior to Uchiha Hiha himself. Through the Sharingan crystal ball, he clearly felt that in addition to several ninjas who originally belonged to Uchiha Hiha, there was actually a ninja in the direction of Rain Village who had escaped from the control of the illusion.
Uchiha Feiyu, who felt something was interesting, immediately focused his attention on the Rain Country through Uzumaki Nagato as a transit point.
Land of Rain, Rain Village. A reddish light flowed from the sky, and the ninjas who stayed in Rain Village were almost all controlled in an instant. Only in the central tower, in a dark cocoon, a white-haired ninja with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes.
"Huh!? What's going on? Such a strong spiritual power... Is someone using an illusion?"
"Well... Fortunately, this mental fluctuation woke me up... Otherwise, I would have died of complete exhaustion without knowing it..."
With a ripping sound, the outer black cocoon was torn open by a large hand extending from the inside, and a middle-aged ninja with a naked upper body and a strong look walked out.
This middle-aged ninja is none other than the current leader of the Rain Village, Hanzo the Salamander!
As for why he looks much younger than his age, and the scene of him breaking out of the black cocoon and being reborn, it was naturally all because of the butterfly effect brought about by Uchiha Feiyu.
Uchiha Feiyu once found the Rain Village and inquired about the information of the Akatsuki organization. Before leaving, he had a sudden inspiration and gave Hanzo Salamander a part of the poisonous power inheritance from the Book of Magic Inheritance.
In addition to the original inheritance, there were also some improved ideas of Orochimaru. One of them was to use the habit of some poisonous insects to cocoon and be reborn, so that he could also transform himself into this cocooning ability, thereby completely reconstructing his own body structure and transforming the deadly toxins in the body into elixirs.
There is no doubt that Orochimaru's idea must have been partly inspired by Uchiha Feiyu. After all, there are many different kinds of Tiancan Kung Fu in martial arts novels, and many of them are related to drugs.
However, since even Orochimaru himself did not adopt this training idea, we can see how small the possibility of its success is. Not to mention that it is just an inspiration and framework of Orochimaru, and there are still many problems that need to be solved.
However, for Hanzo of the Salamander, no matter how many problems he needs to solve on this path of poisonous skills, he has no choice.
As a poisonous person who had been transplanted with salamander venom glands since childhood, Hanzo of the salamander had begun to lose strength due to his age and the long-term presence of the venom glands in his body. The scroll of poison skills left by Uchiha Feiyu could be said to be his only way out.
Relying on his own experience as a Kage-level ninja, his knowledge of various poisons, and the shallow accumulation of the Rain Village, Hanzo Salamander began his journey of practicing poison skills with difficulty.
Fortunately, he was born with a physique that was very different from that of ordinary people, which was a perfect match for his poison skills. Coupled with a bit of coincidence and luck, he did not die suddenly in the middle of the journey, but reached the final step.
When it comes to the stage of breaking out of the cocoon and being reborn, Hanzo of the Salamander's life form has surpassed that of ordinary ninjas. In addition, he originally had the strength of a Kage, and after experiencing nirvana once, he now has the ability to resist this kind of wide-area illusion.
However, if it were not for the mental interference of this small Tsukuyomi illusion, Hanzo of the Salamander might never have been able to break out of the cocoon and be reborn in his lifetime, but would have died silently in the cocoon. From this point of view, his luck was really good.
Then, precisely because of this, his performance also attracted the attention of Uchiha Feiyu. Uchiha Feiyu transmitted the four Hunyuan treasure boxes to Uzumaki Nagato, and controlled the puppet to manipulate the illusion formation to harvest in the Rain Country. After a burst of space fluctuations, he himself came directly to the Rain Village.
At this moment, Salamander Hanzo took a walk around the Rain Village, and he was becoming more and more surprised. Although there was nothing strange about the actions of the Rain Village ninjas, Salamander Hanzo had already discovered that these ninjas had already fallen into an illusion. It was just that the illusion and the reality were completely consistent with each other, so there seemed to be nothing unusual.
"What a terrifying illusion... It controls the entire Rain Village... No, it could be the entire Rain Country..."
Salamander Hanzo's expression became more and more serious. At this moment, he turned his eyes and saw a ninja walking out of the high tower.
The high tower in Rain Village is where Hanzo of the Salamander lives. The ninjas who can enter and exit the high tower cannot be of low status. The ninja who walked out at this moment is one of Hanzo of the Salamander, a rare elite jonin in Rain Village, and an elite jonin who is proficient in illusion.
"Is Nanami also under control? Let's try to remove the illusion for him first!"
Salamander Hanzo stretched out his hand, and a wisp of purple smoke flew like an arrow, directly piercing his deputy and entering his body in an instant.
This is a poison that Hanzo of the Salamander blended through poison chakra. It damages one's own qi and blood, but greatly stimulates one's mental strength.
The saying "all medicines are three-quarters poison" can also be interpreted as all poisons can be used as medicine. As long as the ratio of poison is properly controlled, the so-called highly toxic drug can also be turned into a useful medicine.
"Uh uhhhhh!"
The strange poison penetrated into the body, and the ninja named Nanami opened his eyes wide, covered his throat, and hummed "oh oh ah ah". His eyes were wide open, and the skin all over his body began to turn red. After trembling for a moment, it turned pale.
At the same time, his eyes, which had been a little lifeless, now shone brightly, the blood vessels on his forehead bulged, and he covered his head, as if he was about to break through the illusion.
However, at this moment, three magatama suddenly appeared in his eyes, and the magatama rotated for a moment and then disappeared. Nanami, who was almost about to break through the illusion, was stunned for a moment and then returned to his original state.
The only difference from the previous situation was that the Nanami Ninja now felt weak all over and even trembled a little when he walked.
"Even Nanami can't break through the illusion? With the mental power stimulated by the poison just now, Nanami in the explosive state is equivalent to a shadow-level expert who specializes in illusions. Moreover, the poison chakra entering the body is equivalent to external force intervening to disrupt the chakra... In this situation, she can't wake up... Is there anyone who is awake in the entire Rain Country?"
