Chapter 256: Still pretending to be a Konoha ninja?
After Blue and Kaito put all the messy things back into the "secret space".
Kaito took Blue out of the camp and went to a remote open space in the north of Land of Whirlpool to try to familiarize themselves with the two newly acquired ninjutsu.
What is the result?
The power of 'absolute zero' is indeed strong. All animals and plants that come into contact with the extreme cold air will be frozen instantly.
Moreover, it was frozen thoroughly from the inside out. Objects with more moisture would be frozen very solid. After Kaito knocked the tree open with great effort, the internal structure had been completely destroyed.
The metal kunai that was also hit by the cold air became brittle and turned into powder with just a slight touch.
Fortunately, the short sword is only used to conduct chakra, and the ninjutsu is still released from the front of the tip of the sword. However, even so, for a period of time after releasing "Absolute Zero", Kaito did not dare to touch any object with his short sword.
However, in contrast to its power, this move also has great limitations on itself.
Even if Kaito released it through a short sword as a medium, it can only last less than 3 seconds, otherwise he will suffer severe frostbite.
What comforted Kaito a little was that among the 'Accurpress', the 'Physical Defense' bonus, which he initially thought was the most useless, could actually increase Kaito's resistance to freezing and extend the release time to 4 seconds.
'This really makes me a Snow White.'
Kaito looked at the lifeless scene in front of him, rubbed his brows, exhaled a stream of white air from his mouth, and thought depressedly.
"It's a pity that the water clone can't release Ice Style. I hope that the Ice Style ninjutsu sent by the Yuki Clan will have skills like Ice Clone."
'I just don't know if the ice clone itself can withstand the damage caused by absolute zero.'
As for the test of 'Aurora Beam', Kaito was both satisfied and a little dissatisfied.
This trick is indeed not much different from the description of knowledge infusion.
But!
Kaito had actually overlooked a very important point before.
This ninjutsu uses natural light to transform and attack. When actually used, the power of the Aurora Beam is actually affected by the intensity of the ambient light, and the power at night and during the day may differ by several times.
This made Kaito not so confident about this ninjutsu.
"We still need to prepare a few more backup plans!"
Just when Kaito finished the test and sighed on the spot, he was about to return to the camp to rest.
Blue appeared beside Kaito in an instant and tugged at his sleeve with a serious face.
"Quack!Σ(ˇˇ)つ"
"Found the enemy? Nearby?"
Kaito looked in the direction pointed by Blue, and that was the coastline on the northwest side of the Land of Whirlpool, close to the direction of the Land of Fire.
Just now when Kaito was testing his skills, the little guy was too bored and ran out to play by himself.
Although the front-line camp now seems to have entered a ceasefire phase, Kaito will not let down his guard.
Not to mention the Kumogakure Village, even in Konohagakure, which is promoting peace talks with the Kirigakure Village, there are still hawkish people like Danzo who may cause trouble at any time.
Kaito immediately hid his body carefully and followed Blue quietly towards the direction where he found the enemy.
Sure enough, just as he could see the shore, Kaito noticed an old human-powered fishing boat docked on a beach.
Several ninjas wearing Konoha vests and Konoha forehead protectors were surrounding the ship and arguing in low voices.
But when Kaito took a closer look, his forehead was full of black lines again.
"What are they doing? Do they think everyone else is an idiot?"
No wonder Kaito is speechless.
Because among those several "Konoha Ninjas", one of them had an obviously abnormal skin color. Even with Kaito's eyesight, he didn't notice the other person unless he looked carefully.
"You're almost blending into the night, and you're still pretending to be a Konoha ninja?"
Among the five great ninja villages, apart from Kumogakure, are there any other black ninjas?
Seeing this guy who was obviously not from Kirigakure, sneaking ashore here, Kaito was not prepared to turn a blind eye.
He called out to Blue and rushed forward.
"Blue!"
Kaito gave a low shout, and the little guy stretched out his right hand in tacit understanding, standing opposite to Kaito's left hand.
A large water ball with a diameter of more than five meters quickly formed between the palms of a man and a frog.
Before the people on the shore could react, Kaito suddenly swung his hand, and a huge water ball flew out and hit them.
"Corporation Ninjutsu: Water Prison Pulse Jutsu"
After the huge water prison hit the crowd, it did not explode directly. Instead, it swept away the three unlucky people who failed to dodge, and directly overturned the shabby boat and smashed it into the sea.
At the same time, Kaito was not idle after throwing the water ball, and he quickly formed seals with his hands again.
"Ice Style: Powder Snow"
"Huh~"
The cold freezing wind came out of Kaito's mouth and instantly turned into a strong wind mixed with fine snowflakes that blew towards the enemy.
The three people who had just avoided the sneak attack immediately froze and moved slowly.
"Be careful! It's an Ice Style Ninja!"
However, his words had no effect.
Only the person who shouted burst out at high speed and avoided the coverage of the "Powder Snow".
The remaining two people, together with the three unlucky guys caught in the giant water prison, were quickly frozen by the whistling cold wind and turned into three oddly shaped ice sculptures, one large and two small.
The guy who should be a jonin dodged the attack of Kaito's "Powder Snow", but his speed slowed down due to being frozen.
Before he could launch a counterattack, Blue rushed in front of him and swung his tongue around him, paralyzing him and poisoning him, causing him to fall to the ground.
Kaito instantly stepped forward and kicked the guy, helping him fall into a sweet sleep.
However, Blue, who had just used the "Lick" move, was using his little hands to pick off the tiny snowflakes and ice fragments on his tongue with a bitter look on his face.
The battle ended surprisingly quickly, and Kaito also relaxed a little.
He smiled and walked forward to perform a simple healing spell on the little guy's tongue.
"Next time, don't lick things with your tongue. Luckily, this guy was just frozen and had some snowflakes on his body."
"If you accidentally lick that ice cube over there, you might not be able to pull your tongue off."
"Quack〜(.TロT)σ"
Patting the little guy on the shoulder, Kaito turned around and looked at several "Konohagakure Ninjas".
"One jonin with five chunins? Uh, not necessarily. Maybe two jonin."
"But even so, there are only six of them, and they dare to cause trouble near a front-line camp with hundreds of people?"
This is why Kaito wanted to capture them and didn't use them to test the newly acquired 'Absolute Zero', otherwise these guys would have gone to the Pure Land hand in hand to report.
"Looking at how sneaky he is, and dressed like a Konohagakure ninja. He obviously doesn't come here for serious business. Poisoning? A sneak attack? Gathering intelligence?"
"No! Isn't there more than one group of enemies?"
Thinking of this, Kaito immediately threw three flares into the sky.
