Chapter 117 - 117
Title: Dessert Survival part 2.
"What is it this time?"
Hatake Sagiki asked as he was a little curious.
Even though the other side is Sakumo\'s father and Jounin who is leading the team this time, Akabane still chooses to remain silent.
Be curious for life!
He cursed in his heart.
Desert Illusory Domain, this is the transformation of Illusory Domain that Akabane has been thinking about since entering the Land-of-Wind.
But before, he had never been able to control it perfectly.
But after repeatedly using his Illusory Domain for many times in just a day, he gradually felt he could do it.
But of course…
With his personality, he wouldn\'t do it since it will be troublesome just from maintaining the Domain, but who knows that these guys are still obsessed with protecting the Hidden Leaf Village that leaves him no choice but to use it on them.
"I guess, it\'s a desert."
Hatake Sagiki guessed as he sat down and closed his eyes as if he didn\'t care what was in the Illusory Domain.
But if he really doesn\'t care, he won\'t bother guessing right?
Akabane continued to remain silent while retorting inwardly, but it didn\'t take long for him to become serious and focus on the Illusory Domain.
Such a large Illusory Domain has a considerable burden on his spiritual energy.
More than that, with his ability to watch Illusory Domain from outside, it feels like he was watching a live broadcast.
"In terms of information gathering, Summoning jutsu is simply cheating!" He thought when he saw countless snakes roaming the Desert.
Although they are not adapted to the desert climate, as the summoned Summoned Beast, they still do their duty to complete their mission dutifully.
And it didn\'t take long for the summon snakes to discover a clue.
After informing their summoner, Orochimaru quickly arrived at the place.
"A Comic?"
Orochimaru said in doubt when he saw it, he carefully looked at its cover for hidden information but didn\'t find anything.
When he thought it was a miss, the comic suddenly opened due to wind that made him think otherwise.
Since he thought it was just a normal comic, he didn\'t bother looking at the content since he thought it was the same as the original but didn\'t expect something was written on it.
"In order to nurture strong ninjas, Hidden Sand Village puts ninjas into the desert and at the same time puts poison mist in the desert. And only by getting the antidote and reaching the Hidden Sand Village can they survive."
A short message, but the above content is enough for Orochimaru to understand everything.
Poison, Antidote, and Survival.
Not all of them can survive this battle, and these comic fragments are the most important information in this dessert.
Interesting!
Thinking about it, he couldn\'t help laugh grimly.
Fighting with his companions is an unprecedented experience for himself that made him excited just thinking about it.
----
At other places.
Just like Orochimaru, Sakumo also summoned his Nin Dog named Kenma to search for information in his surroundings.
Although Kenma is still small, his nose is already quite sensitive, that it already smelled something after being summoned.
And after some exploration they finally found something…
"A Kunai."
"Although it doesn\'t feel as good as my short knife, it\'s fine for now since I can use it."
Sakumo said as he held the Kunai feeling more confident with a weapon in his hand.
With weapons, his fighting strength can be improved a lot than when he was bare hands.
"Kenma, find other people first."
He took the kunai, and plan to meet his companion first.
woof~
Kenma barked in understanding and walked in a certain direction with his small calf.
"Good job!"
Seeing it, Sakumo gave a compliment and follow fast.
One kid, one small dog, searching along the desert.
After a while, they finally met the person Kenma smelled.
"Shinnosuke?"
Sakumo was surprised, and then asked strangely while looking at his weapon, "What\'s in your hand?"
"Well, it looks like a pot "
Shinnosuke noticed the kunai in his hand, then looked at the flat-bottomed pot that looked like a frying pan in his hand, and suddenly feel ashamed.
How can this be called weapon! he thought.
"Maybe Sand Ninja\'s pot is like this…its actually not bad, you can use it for defense and offense at the same time which is quite useful," Sakumo said, whether it is sarcasm or not, no one knows.
"That\'s what I also think."
Shinnosuke answered as he put the frying pan around his waist and sighed helplessly.
"Let\'s find other people first."
Sakumo said as he stifled his smile and let Kenma continue to lead the way.
But their search stops when an unexpected thing happens...
wu wu wu ~~
Kenma who was leading the way suddenly collapse on the sand while giving a pitiful groan. It tried to support itself but failed after two times of trying.
"What\'s the situation?"
Shinnosuke was stunned witnessing it and asked in a baffled tone.
Sakumo squatted down to check the situation of Kenma. And he has to say that Akabanes Illusory Domain is very real. Even though Kenma is only a phantom image, but the situation is very realistic that you can definitely think of it as real.
After inspecting Kenma, and out of his understanding of his companion, he instantly understood what was going on–
"He was poisoned."
"What! Poison? Did it accidentally eat poison?"
Shinosuke complexion changed and looked around vigilantly.
"It is impossible to be eaten by mistake. Animals are more sensitive than humans, so the poison was probably a type of poison we cant feel."
Sakumo explained lengthy which is quite rare for him.
He didn\'t lack information, so when he just thought about it for a moment and sorted out the whole sequence of events he immediately knows its source.
"You mean, the air is poisonous!"
Shinnosuke sucks in a cold breath.
Desert, poison, and some Puppet, it is fully in line with Sand Ninja\'s combat style.
As he was thinking of it, he was suddenly taken back when he thought of something.
Puppet?
No, Something\'s wrong!
He quickly pressed his hand on the sand and poured his chakra on it, and immediately felt the enemy\'s under the sand hiding and shouted.
"There are enemies!"
"Needless to say, I also know…"
Sakumo answered as he kicked Shinnosuke away, and then made his hand full of lightning.
Chidori flow!
Under the lightning, several Puppets that arise around him were directly bombarded into residues.
"this Jutsu…"
"No time to ask, run!"
Sakumo yelled while panting, the more he uses Chakra, the more he can feel the existence of poison in the air.
If they don\'t run, they will die from the poison in the air.
"I understand."
Shinnosuke got up, pulled Sakumo on, and then used hand-sealed with both hands.
Earth-Style!
But before he could use his Jutsu, Sakumo yelled at him that made him stop.
"Idiot, underground is also poisonous, let\'s run!"
"…"
With no other choice, Shinosuke and Sakumo run in the direction unknown.
And the journey of Let\'s run from the Poison, begin.
----
Akabane who was watching them sneered witnessing their decision, this is an Illusory Domain, not reality so how can the earth also be poisonous.
But he knows that their decision is also correct if they were in real-life situations. But differentiating between reality and fiction is their only flaw.
However, it was Tsunade that surprised him the most. Others we\'re collecting information and looking for weapons.
But this Lassie is good without them, she doesn\'t need weapons since she didn\'t use a weapon, and with the medical skills she has learned, she immediately felt that the air was poisonous.
But the most important thing is...
The poison that could make other people die if they absorb more does not affect her at all!
While other people were running like a dog looking for the Hidden Sand Village and antidote, she on the other hand was walking like she was in her garden strolling.
Senju\'s physique is simply a cheat…
Akabane complains from the bottom of his heart.
He swept down the Illusory Domain watching the others. He saw almost everyone noticed the problem of poison from the air. While trying to escape, they collected clues that might exist around them.
However, depending on their physique, the tragedy they encountered is also different.
Such as Moonlight Night Dance.
She was frail and sickly in the first place, so although she was able to escape from the puppet, but it was useless.
The Poison in the air does not care whether you escape or not.
Under the erosion of poison, their physical strength and Chakra are depleted very quickly, plus the Puppet they will face that made it much faster…
"Moonlight Night Dance has been killed, death due to poison. "
A voice resounded through Illusory Domain.
In an instant, everyone was stunned when they hear it.
Then after a moment of silence, everyone laughed in unison, dying under the poison air is really a tragedy!
"Someone is out, so even if I die, I won\'t be at the bottom."
Shin Yūhi laughed, and then his expression stiffened when he thought it was his teammates that were out.
After all the easiest way to win this game is being with your teammates since there are only three antidotes.
He knows it because it\'s his only and most important harvest so far.
After sighing and folding the piece of paper on his hand that contains the information, Shin Yūhi was about to leave to find the said antidote or his remaining teammate Shinnosuke.
But before he can take a step, he suddenly heard a voice.
"It seems that you also got the information, Shin-san."
This voice…It\'s Orochimaru!
Shin Yūhi looked up and saw a silhouette standing proudly on a sandy mountain not far away from him.
"This is Illusory Domain. The theme is survival and escape. Not only do we have to get the antidote, but we also have to escape to Hidden Sand Village to survive."
Orochimaru said while walking in his direction.
"What do you mean by this?"
Shin Yūhi asked warily.
"Information exchange, I want to know what is recorded in the paper in your hand."
Orochimaru answer.
"So simple?"
Shin Yūhi has a serious expression. He doesn\'t know Orochimaru too well, because this guy is exuding a cold temperament, so he doesn\'t like to interact with him very much.
But in terms of strength…
He has to admit that he is not an opponent.
"What good is it for me to kill you? You don\'t have the antidote anyway, so I just want to get the information in your hands, not your life."
Orochimaru shrugged and said lightly, but after he finished his word Shin Yūhi quickly attack him.
"Demonic Illusion: Tree Binding Death!"
Choosing to fight, Shin Yūhi directly uses illusion that took effect in an instant, but...
the next second, he saw Orochimaru in front of him turned into a snake.
A Clone?
No, this guy is just trying to attract my attention…
Shin Yūhi immediately became alert and quickly jumped forward.
But he was a step slower.
And his foot got caught by Orochimaru who was underneath.
Earth-Style: Headhunter Jutsu!
With the use of the Jutsu, Shin Yūhi head was the only thing that can be seen on the surface while his body was inside the earth.
And after a few seconds, Orochimaru appeared in front of him with the paper in his hand and said while licking his lips.
"I said I only need the information, so why bother fighting me? But since I already got the thing I want, I will leave you here since if I kill you directly my name will be known. So good luck"
"Ahhh…Damn you Orochimaru!"
