Chapter 70: Space-Type Domain

Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Space-Type Domain

Ten puppets, pure white and standing tall, encircled Chiyo. The masterwork of the Puppet Technique’s founder, Monzaemon, had now descended upon the world—the legendary puppets said to be worth a thousand soldiers had officially made their appearance.

The ten white-clad puppets took positions in all directions, each fulfilling its role with blades, swords, shields, and sealing mechanisms. As Chakra flowed between them, a chilling killing intent swept over the battlefield like a tidal wave.

Amidst that chilling intent was Chiyo’s towering hatred...

On the other side, Hatake Sakumo stood calmly in the wind, his silver-white short hair and the White Fang shortsword at his waist gleaming in unison.

Watching Chiyo, whose killing intent soared to the heavens, Sakumo slowly sighed. He gradually gripped the hilt of his sword, and in an instant, sharp Chakra of both Lightning and Wind attributes coiled around the blade.

A pale blade light pierced through the swirling sand, its fierce momentum condensed yet restrained.

Facing the overwhelming pressure of the Chikamatsu Ten’s encirclement, this top-tier Ninja of Konohagakure remained as composed as still water.

He had ample experience dealing with Puppet Technique users.

Some of that experience had been contributed by the children of the person before him.

"Die!"

Chiyo’s eyes were blood-red. With a flick of her fingers, all ten puppets moved simultaneously.

The two puppets at the forefront charged forward with dual blades, their sharp edges slicing through the air as they aimed straight for Sakumo’s face.

Four puppets flanked him from left and right, their mechanisms firing countless poisoned senbon from hidden fingertips, sealing off all avenues of escape.

The three puppets at the rear swiftly formed a triangular formation. The mechanisms representing Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha slowly activated, and a violent whirlwind began to gather at the formation’s center—the very same lethal combined attack Chiyo had used against Orochimaru earlier: the Three Treasures Suction Collapse.

But this time, unleashed by the Chikamatsu Ten puppets, its power far surpassed what had been displayed before.

The final puppet remained stationed behind the formation, its sealing patterns faintly glowing, ready to provide backup support at any moment.

Facing the enemy who had killed her son and daughter-in-law, Chiyo unleashed her deadliest techniques from the very start—holding nothing back.

In an instant, a sky full of killing intent locked down every possible retreat for Hatake Sakumo.

"This Puppet Technique is far stronger than the pair I encountered before. I understand the hatred in your heart, but... we are enemies."

Watching the puppets closing in for the kill, Sakumo murmured softly. The next moment, lightning flashed beneath his feet as Lightning Release Chakra instantly activated every cell in his body.

Stimulated by the Lightning Release Chakra, Sakumo’s speed surged to its limit.

The White Fang shortsword abruptly left its sheath, and a brilliant white slash erupted into the air.

"Hatake Style: Wind Demon!"

Fierce Wind Style Chakra enveloped the blade. With a sweeping strike, the dense barrage of poisoned senbon was shattered and scattered.

As the blade light danced, Sakumo’s figure moved like a ghost among the puppets. Each swing of the White Fang carried a gleam capable of tearing through steel.

The harsh clang of metal against metal echoed incessantly as the close-combat puppets’ blades repeatedly collided with the White Fang, sending sparks flying in all directions.

Chiyo, positioned behind her ten puppets, deftly manipulated her fingers, controlling all the puppets and holding her own against Sakumo without yielding an inch.

The Chikamatsu Ten worked in seamless coordination, with close-combat puppets pressing forward to restrain, while long-range puppets continuously unleashed mechanisms and hidden weapons. Within the triangular formation, the wind force of the Three Treasures Suction Collapse grew increasingly fierce, its immense suction relentlessly pulling at Sakumo’s figure, attempting to drag this Konohagakure powerhouse into the storm’s center and crush him.

Well aware of Hatake Sakumo’s strength, Chiyo had released the Three Treasures Suction Collapse from the start solely to limit his speed.

As a veteran puppeteer, she understood the weaknesses of puppeteers all too well.

However...

Within the hurricane, Hatake Sakumo’s gaze sharpened. With a firm grip on his blade, his sword technique abruptly shifted. Amidst the burst of lightning, he directly abandoned the frontal entanglement, using the tornado’s suction to soar into the air. His chakra erupted violently around him, leveraging the reactive force generated by the collision of wind and chakra to unleash a swift horizontal slash aimed directly at Chiyo’s main body.

Faced with Hatake Sakumo’s lightning-fast strike, Chiyo was clearly prepared. With a flick of her fingers, she immediately summoned two guard puppets for defense, stacking their sturdy shields layer upon layer before her.

A deafening explosion erupted as White Fang’s slash heavily struck the shield surface, the powerful impact causing fine cracks to appear on the puppet shields.

Seizing this opening, the remaining Chikamatsu Ten simultaneously closed in, multiple killing intents assaulting from all directions, trapping Hatake Sakumo once again within their formation.

Yet, Hatake Sakumo’s expression remained unchanged as he simply placed White Fang upright before him.

Above him, Uchiha Xuan stood calmly atop Charizard’s head, quietly observing the battle below. After a moment of careful scrutiny, Uchiha Xuan withdrew his gaze—the outcome of the battle below had long been decided.

Raising his hand, a black sphere gently floated in his palm.

Don’t misunderstand—this was neither Planetary Devastation nor a Truth-Seeking Ball. This was... a mythical entity far surpassing both.

"Go."

Gazing at the black sphere in his hand, Uchiha Xuan gently clenched his palm. The next moment, centered on Uchiha Xuan, a massive transparent sphere with a radius of one thousand meters instantly enveloped the entire battlefield.

Immediately after, countless Uchiha Ninja appeared on the battlefield in an instant.

Crimson Sharingan flickered faintly...

The Uchiha clan officially took over the entire battlefield!

Simultaneously, the ten puppets besieging Hatake Sakumo were instantly frozen in mid-air.

This sight startled Chiyo, her fingers flying as she attempted to regain control of the puppets, only to find that no matter how much chakra she channeled, the puppets gave no response whatsoever.

"It seems my continued intervention is unnecessary."

Observing the frozen puppets, the killing intent around Hatake Sakumo dissipated. Sheathing White Fang, he looked up at the giant flying dragon in the sky.

Sitting atop Charizard’s head, Uchiha Xuan slightly raised a finger. The chakra threads connecting the ten puppets to Chiyo instantly severed and vanished before her eyes.

When he reappeared, he was already in front of Uchiha Xuan in the air.

Looking at the ten puppets before him, Uchiha Xuan gave a light squeeze, and a sharply contracting force of gravity instantly crushed the ten puppets into fragments.

Konohagakure had no puppeteers anyway, so keeping these things was useless.

After finishing this, Uchiha Xuan stood up and took a step forward.
