Chapter 843: What's Going On!
Meanwhile, elsewhere.
Just as Minato Namikaze and Choji Akimichi were discovered by Gozuchi's Observation Haki, and the two sides engaged in a fierce battle centered around Queen Sara.
Hizashi Hyuga and Gaku Inuzuka also arrived at Rōran's West City District, aided by the Invisibility Technique.
Perhaps because the commotion near the Central High Tower was too great, attracting most people's attention, their journey there was relatively smooth and uneventful.
Until they noticed more and more Soldiers and Man in Black guarding the area, they decisively stopped and found a Building to hide behind.
"Byakugan!"
Hizashi Hyuga immediately used his Bloodline Limit.
The bulging veins around his Eyes and his almost entirely white pupils made his originally handsome Face appear extremely fierce.
His Line of Sight first swept across the Base heavily guarded by troops ahead.
Finding nothing noteworthy except the large number of people, following Minato Namikaze's directions, he slowly looked underground.
"No way..."
A massive cylindrical Domain leading directly underground, wide and long Stairs spiraling down along the Wall, figures in various uniforms coming and going on the Stairs.
In the Center, there were also two Elevator Cables and massive Elevator Cars, whether they had always been there or were recently constructed was unknown.
They moved up and down, left and right, constantly transporting large and small Boxes between the Ground and the Underground, which were then carried by the Black-Clad Soldiers to different Buildings or Trucks.
The entire process was so orderly it gave Hizashi Hyuga a strong sense of oppression.
"That is..."
His Gaze finally saw the Underground Palace that Minato Namikaze had mentioned.
The Environment here had changed significantly compared to the beginning.
The two temporary Stone Bridges that were originally built in the air had become a half-fan-shaped Stone Slab Ground, meaning the usable area had become much wider.
There was also space to erect Small Buildings for the Den Den Mushi Network Relay Station and the Biochemical Safety Station.
The other half of the fan shape was still a terrifying Dark Abyss.
A team of flying Personnel had previously been dispatched with 'light cups' for Detection below, but they found it was truly bottomless.
The Scout Team didn't see the bottom even after flying down for nearly an hour, and they couldn't hear any echo when throwing things down from that Position.
This made them dare not continue, and they quickly returned while they still had Stamina.
And in the Center of the two was the Altar, with four Statues resembling figures in Black Robes and hoods standing at the four corners, and in the Center, naturally, was the Small Stargate emitting a faint Radiance from its outline.
"What exactly is this Situation?"
Hizashi Hyuga was somewhat bewildered by what he saw and mumbled to himself subconsciously. Inuzuka E, who was beside him, heard this and asked in a low voice filled with Doubt, "What did you see?"
"Well, there is indeed an Altar and a Palace underground. I also saw a glowing gate... Huh?!"
Just as Hizashi Hyuga was about to say something, he suddenly saw an extremely tall in Body Size and extremely muscular in Physique long-haired man wearing a Coat over his shoulders walk out from the Light Gate.
This made him instantly realize that it really was The Gate, so could it be that these people are all...
But just as this Speculation arose in his Heart.
He saw the 'Giant' who had just walked out of the Light Gate laugh twice, then suddenly turn his head and stare intently at him!
Yes.
In Hizashi Hyuga's Sense of Sight, the other party was indeed looking directly at him.
This made his Heart pound, while also making him wonder if it was a delusion, perhaps the other party was looking at someone else nearby?
His current Position was about three hundred meters away from the Base on the Ground in the Distance, and even further, separated by over two hundred meters of Geological Layer from the Underground Palace. How could he possibly be looking at him!
Unless the other party also possessed X-ray Vision and Far Sight abilities similar to the Byakugan...
"Phew—it was a delusion after all."
When that person actively shifted his Line of Sight and walked with an Un hurried pace towards the spiral Stairs, Hizashi Hyuga immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but didn't realize that his forehead and back were already sweating.
"Mr. E, we can go now. After meeting up with Captain Minato and the others, it's best to leave here as soon as possible!"
Hizashi Hyuga still felt a chill in his Heart, the other party's 'looking' Gaze kept replaying in his mind.
He didn't know if it was a delusion.
He always felt that in the man's eyes first showed surprise, followed by a hint of playfulness. In any case, he didn't want to stay here any longer.
He had seen enough Intelligence!
At the same time.
Choza Akimichi and Gozuchi fought as they moved, having fallen back to the Plaza below the Central High Tower, because he also didn't want the Combat to affect the Rōran Civilians inside the tower.
Gozuchi originally didn't want to get entangled with Choza Akimichi.
But who knew that the other party was very skilled at entanglement and obstruction, and various Body Expansion Ninjutsu combined with powerful Wind Pressure had a very large range of Destruction and Power.
This made him realize that he had underestimated the Ninja of This World!
"Human Bullet Tank!!"
Pale blue Chakra surged from Choza Akimichi's Body. As he leaped into the air, his Body first underwent Gigantification, then rolled into a giant Meat Ball spinning at high Speed.
"This Technique again..."
Gozuchi watched the Human Bullet Tank, carrying surging Qi Energy, rush down and quickly dodged with a flash of his Body.
However, after the Human Bullet Tank smashed the Stone Slab on the Ground, it made an Acceleration turn and continued to attack him with great Aura.
He had previously used Slash several times against the other party.
But he found that although this Technique of the other party looked like Pure physical rotation, there was actually a layer of strong Wind Pressure and pale blue Chakra Energy providing Protection to the Body Surface.
Therefore, Pure Blade Light had little Effect, only the Blade attached with Armament Haki could break through a certain degree of Defense.
"This Pig is really annoying enough!"
Gozuchi, who already had a stern demeanor, continuously dodged using Observation Haki and High-Speed Movement, while inwardly cursing with an even colder Expression.
It wasn't that he hadn't tried flying using Moonwalk.
But Choza Akimichi would either chase him by stepping on the outer Wall of the High Tower, or Manifestation into a Human Bullet Tank and roll up along the outer Wall, then leap up and force him back to the Ground using various Partial Expansion Jutsu.
Gozuchi truly didn't expect that a guy with such a large Body Size could have such swift movements and Techniques.
What he didn't know was.
Choza Akimichi was also in a difficult situation and felt very uncomfortable.
"Hiss hiss hiss, it hurts so much. What's going on with this guy's Blade? Why won't the Wounds heal? I've already treated them with Yang Release Chakra..."
Choza Akimichi, who had returned to Human Form from his Human Bullet Tank state, stared intently at Gozuchi opposite him, but inwardly cried out in pain over the several Bloody Wounds on his Body.
The Blade in Gozuchi's hand, which had somehow become stained black, seemed to possess great Sharpness to him.
Although there was no Wind Release Chakra attached, it could always break through the Wind Pressure and Chakra he used to enhance Power and provide Protection to his Body, leaving Wounds on him.
Also, he didn't know if some Poison had been applied to the Blade?
It could actually slow down the healing Effect of Yang Release Chakra on Wounds!
Although it was still making a little Recovery, the Speed was too slow! The Blood kept flowing out, making him look quite disheveled and covered in Blood.
Choza Akimichi was certain that without Yang Release Chakra, even using Stop Bleeding Medicine, it would likely have little Effect.
Besides that.
The other party was as agile as a mosquito, slightly faster than him in terms of Speed, could also Sky Walk, and had strong evasion Ability in Perception.
Basically, it was difficult for his Ninjutsu to fully hit the other party.
Unless he used his full Strength, but it didn't seem necessary yet...
"Minato, Minato, you need to hurry. I don't think I can stop him for too long."
Choza Akimichi glanced at the top floor of the Central High Tower with a heavy Heart, then swept his Gaze over the teams of Gun-wielding Soldiers and Man in Black approaching from all directions.
Only 23 Monthly Passes left to reach 1000. Which Big Brother (Term of Address) still has Monthly Passes? Please, please, give them to me~~~ (Bow Bow!)
