Konoha Projection Magic
Chapter 445 Happy New Year!
Chapter 445 Happy New Year!
Looking at Tai Yi who was glowing with lightning in front of him, a drop of cold sweat slowly rolled down Mizukage's forehead, Tai Yi's strength was much stronger than he thought.
The battle between Konoha and Kirigakure lasted for a long time. Shisui and the others were just a microcosm on the battlefield. The battle between Konoha and Kirigakure was very fierce. In addition to Shisui and the others, many Konoha ninjas also showed extraordinary performances. of combat power.
In other words, in addition to the Earth Kingdom battlefield controlled by Orochimaru, many Konoha ninjas shined during the battles between Konoha and the other Three Kingdoms.
For example, Mr. Chen, who was promoted to Jnin by pure body skills, won the title of Konoha Shenlong as in the original book; Dai, who was valued for his eight-door Dunjia, won the title of Emerald Beast; and Uchiha of Moon Blade Yuexuan, Huanmeng Zhishui who just graduated, and Shunlei Taiyi who is on the battlefield
And these are only the ones that Shiro has been exposed to, there are many more that he has not been exposed to. It can be said that Konoha's accumulation over the years has been fully demonstrated in this war!
This is also the reason why the remaining three countries directly launched troops against Konoha after the defeat of Sand Hidden.
Among the titles obtained by the people Shiro is familiar with, others are okay. The more special one is Shisui. He is still as good at the teleportation technique as in the original work.
But the title he obtained was not related to this aspect, but to the Sharingan Genjutsu, which has not yet been developed to its extreme.
Ultimately, it is still inseparable from Shiro. Unlike in the original work, Shisui became Shiro's student and was equipped with several good teammates. This has little impact. With Shisui's talent, he can achieve good results without Shiro. teammates.
What really had a big impact was a method of using genjutsu that Shiro once accidentally mentioned to Shisui, which was to create an genjutsu space, where he could constantly fight his opponent and squeeze everything out of him!
Whether it is combat experience or ninjutsu, they are all included!
However, this move is extremely difficult to implement. Shiro originally just said it casually. His own estimate was that it would only be possible to achieve this with the Kaleidoscope.
But Shiro underestimated the Sharingan and also underestimated Uchiha!
After receiving Shiro's reminder, Shisui searched through all the genjutsu information he had access to in the clan, and asked the elders in the clan, and finally successfully developed this genjutsu!
Therefore, Shisui, who was immersed in the experience of brushing up, successfully obtained the name of Dream by relying on this frightening illusion. Compared with it, Taichi's name of Instant Thunder was not a big deal.
As for Mizukage, because in the previous battle, Taiyi easily lost to their test subject, his estimation of Taiyi's strength was somewhat wrong.
It was not until this moment that Mizukage finally understood the terrible truth behind Konoha when Taichi suddenly rushed in front of him and had a high probability of killing him.
"Damn it! I will never let you succeed!"
Just when Shiro Taichi and the others were confronting the Mizukage, the three-tailed Jinchuuriki suddenly jumped out, looked at Shiro and the others with crazy faces, and then released the seal of the three-tails!
"Let's make a scene! Three Tails! Hahahahaha!"
"Roar!!!"
Taichi and the others had no idea of stopping the jinchuriki, and just watched quietly as the three-tailed jinchuriki emerged from the jinchuriki's body. Of course, it wasn't that they didn't want to stop it. Since the three-tailed jinchuriki had made up their mind, they would not give them this. Chance.
The seal of the three tails had been lifted long before he jumped out, and it was useless to kill him at this time.
Besides, Shiro wants to see if he can attack the tailed beast head-on with the light cannon treasure!
Shiro is very capable against ninjas, but when it comes to dealing with such a big guy, Shiro's only experience was in the Kingdom of Demons when he relied on Mo Zai's King Sword to kill a sprite that was said to be comparable to a tailed beast.
But Shiro had no way of knowing whether the sprites could compete with the tailed beasts. The information he learned was all shown in the anime in his previous life and what the jounin who led the team said at the time.
But to be blunt, in their eyes, the strength of the ten-tailed beasts and the ordinary tailed beasts are almost the same. They can defeat them in seconds, and the pressure they bring is similar.
Therefore, relying on these things is unreliable. Shiro intends to test it himself, and even if he can't kill it, isn't that the lock of the sky?The big deal is to tie it up, randomly find a mist ninja on the battlefield to seal it in, and then kill it, the effect is the same.
And the reason why you choose three-tailed turtles instead of five-tailed turtles with a certain understanding is harder than slugs, isn't it?
"Oh, is this the tailed beast? It's really scary." Taichi, who was standing in front of Mizukage, looked at the howling three tails and narrowed his Sharingan eyes.
Taichi compared his own strength with that of the three-tailed beasts, and found that without using the Sharingan genjutsu to control the tailed beasts, he could barely keep up with the tailed beasts!
Of course, this refers to a head-to-head confrontation. If there is a real fight, he will definitely run away!
But when it comes to killing, the knife is a bit short and lacks a wide range of tricks.
'It looks like I need to make some changes to my future practice plans.'
Not to mention Taichi who was starting to think about his future training plan, Shiro jumped off the blue snake's head after the three tails came out and slowly floated to the ground.
"Blue Snake, stop the other ninjas and don't let them interfere with me."
"As you command, Master Shiro!"
"Shout!"
After answering Shiro, the blue snake opened its mouth wide, sprayed a huge amount of poisonous gas, forced most of the ninjas out, circled a battlefield for Shiro, and handed in a passing answer sheet.
Of course, it was just a passing grade. After Shiro officially became involved with the Three-Tails, most of the poisonous mist was dissipated by the storm caused by the Three-Tails, and it also ran outside the poisonous circle.
"Huh? Want to escape? Ha~ Don't you think it's a bit late?" Shiro looked at the three tails who fled decisively. After being stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but shook his head, and more chains shot out from behind.
"Soso~"
"Boom~"
The three tails were not stupid. The moment they saw Shiro Tianzhi's Lock, the timid one sensed the restraining power like a natural enemy. In an instant, it rolled into a disc and rolled crazily, trying to escape.
Shiro would not just watch the three tails escape, and immediately controlled the Sky Lock to block the three tails!
Then a scene like this appeared on the battlefield. A gray disk rolled crazily on the ground, and behind it, dozens of golden chains followed closely!Suddenly, the chains following the three tails spread out. One of the chains accelerated violently, crossing the three tails in an instant, drawing an arc in front of it, trying to intercept it from the front!
At the same time, a chain flew across the sky, and the same scene also appeared in other directions to prevent Sanwei from escaping, except for one direction.
I saw that when the sky lock was about to surround Sanwei, the speed of the gray disk's rotation soared!
But the speed of the three tails did not become faster. On the contrary, it stopped in place for a while, because there were sky locks in other directions, and they could not escape. There was only one position.
underground!
After the three tails spun on the spot for a moment, the dust that was already filling the sky doubled several times in an instant!
And the three tails sank into the ground along with the dust in the sky!
After seeing Mitsuo's response, Shiro hesitated for a moment, then curled his lips with a smile: "Cut, kill yourself!"
After saying that, all the chains gathered together and began to track the three tails underground!
Shiro didn't expect Sanwei to escape into the ground, not unexpected, mainly because in Shiro's opinion, breaking through the sky lock is better than this.
On the ground, there are only a few chains blocking the other directions of the three tails. If you force your way through, there is still a chance to protrude, but it is different underground.
You know, the three-tails do not have earth-type chakra, and because of their long-term comfortable living conditions, the three-tails have not cultivated other chakra attributes, only a single water type.
Therefore, its ability to escape underground was actually just relying on brute force. Not to mention its slow speed, the movement was so loud that Shiro standing on the ground could see it clearly!
At this time, dozens of chains have been densely covered in the sky above the three tails' route, following closely. Once the three tails break out of the ground, they will be tied up instantly!
Of course, the three tails can also rush all the way to the coast like this, and once they reach the sea, they can escape completely!
Unfortunately, this is also what Shiro is considering, and it is impossible to achieve this.
Because it is so large, the resistance it encounters underground is much greater than that of the Heavenly Lock. At this time, the underground Heavenly Lock has almost reached its front.
After a while, Shiro, who sensed the movement of the Sky Lock, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, began to move, and slowly mobilized chakra. Whether he could deal with such a large creature and cause considerable damage now depends on this blow.
After seeing Shiro's movements, Taiyi smiled, knowing that the play was coming to an end, and in contrast was Mizukage's gloomy face
"Peng!"
Sure enough, not long after Shiro started walking, a large amount of dust suddenly exploded from the ground in the distance. The three-tailed figure also flew out of the ground with the explosion, and then
"Wow~~~~"
The sky lock that had been closely following it locked it in an instant, and with a flash of golden light, Sanwei's power was suppressed, and he lost all his power in an instant.
Then he was tied up in the air and moved towards Shiro, while Shiro here was walking while reciting incantations and making preparations for the projection treasure phantom.

"The Sword of Vowed Victory" (also known as the Sword of Binding Victory)
Grade:A++
Type: Anti-city Noble Phantasm
Excalibur Morgan.
The dark sword of Aurora.In order to no longer control his magic power and swing the holy sword in his hand as he pleased, the particles of magic power were not light, but turned into darkness that swallowed the light.
That scene is similar to the dragon breath of Vortigern, the demon dragon that appeared to protect the British Isles.
This is the trump card that Shiro uses to deal with the three tails, the Sword of Promise of Victory. This is the Noble Phantasm held by King Arthur after he turned black. Originally, even if Shiro broke through the limitations of the system, he completely controlled Emiya's Heroic Spirit Card.
It is also impossible to project this sword, at least it is impossible to project it intact. After all, this is a treasure made by God, and it is an area that projection magic cannot touch.
Even if Red A, who has a deep connection with Saber, wants to project this sword, he will have to pay a heavy price. The most serious case is self-destruction!
(Note: In the Infinite Sword System before the remake, the one that Shirou once carried and slashed against Shining. I personally understand it to be the winning golden sword, that is, the 06 one, with the ex prefix missing, and the level is b)
But it might be the reason why the Heroic Spirit Card was completely integrated with the transformed Shiro. He was just curious and tried to analyze it. As a result, after trying it, Shiro was surprised to find that he could actually understand its structure!
And this means that it can be projected!
Afterwards, Shiro tried to analyze other divinely crafted Noble Phantasms, but found that only some of them were understandable. I don't know whether it was because the experiment was not completed or because the Heroic Spirit Card only affected the curry sticks.
Not to mention those divinely-made treasures that cannot be analyzed, the part that Shiro can analyze basically cannot be projected, or in other words, when projected, it is just an empty shell without any power.
However, the Sword of Oath to Victory has been tested by Shiro many times, and its projection will not have any impact on him, including the liberation of his true name, although he has not yet been liberated.
"Hoo~Keng!"
Shiro slowly raised the black curry stick in front of him, and then began to infuse chakra. In an instant, a black beam of light rose into the sky!
"Is this...that move? No, the nature of the power is different, and it is much stronger! Haha~ this guy Shiro."
The place where Shiro liberated the Noble Phantasm was not very far from Taichi and the others, so the majestic momentum of the gradually liberated curry sticks deeply shocked them.
As Shiro's teammate, the first thing Taichi thought of was the Wang Sword Light Cannon that Shiro had liberated during the Ghost Country mission. The two were somewhat similar in terms of power properties.
Especially the black ones, they are all evil treasures.
But the similarity is only a little bit, and the power of the two is completely different. Shiro is much stronger now than before.
Not only Taichi was also shocked, but also Mizukage who was "volunteered" to watch the battle. He once again clenched the fists in his sleeves, and his heart was filled with endless unwillingness.
While they were watching, Shiro raised the blood-black magic sword full of blood over his head, and at the moment the sky lock released Sanwei, he slashed down fiercely!
"Excalibur Morgan!"

Looking at Tai Yi who was glowing with lightning in front of him, a drop of cold sweat slowly rolled down Mizukage's forehead, Tai Yi's strength was much stronger than he thought.
