Chapter 90 The Last Dance
Both its attack speed and power clearly surpass ordinary bloodline limits, truly befitting the Sage Body bloodline left behind by Ōtsutsuki Hamura.
Did you avoid it?
A hint of excitement and seriousness flashed in Kimimaro's eyes, and a long, white bone spur grew from both of his palms at the same time.
"My time is running out, so I have no choice but to get serious and finish this quickly, taking Lord Orochimaru's vessel back before Konoha can react."
Kimimaro, who lowered his center of gravity slightly as he charged toward Tetsuya, wasn't particularly fast, but he exuded an elegant and casual demeanor in every gesture. He then launched an attack by swinging the bone spikes in his palms, one piercing straight into Tetsuya's chest and the other slicing across his neck. Although the attack speed wasn't fast, it gave people an eerie feeling that they couldn't escape.
Corpse Bone Pulse: Dance of the Willow!
Kimimaro's seemingly casual and gentle thrusts actually embody the essence of Kaguya's clan's thousand-year-old physical techniques. Every attack and defense movement is devoid of any superfluous motion, and his body and posture are like willow catkins swaying in the wind. Only when hit by the bone spike can one truly feel the killing intent contained within this graceful dance.
Even as Kimimaro charged forward, Tetsuya's eyes were already bloodshot. Under the dynamic capture of his three-tomoe Sharingan, Tetsuya used kunai to block Kimimaro's continuous attacks. Not only did he fail to gain any advantage, but he was also forced to take a step or two back from time to time to avoid Kimimaro's divine moves.
It's important to know that under the dynamic vision of the three-tomoe Sharingan, every movement of Kimimaro was slowed down by a beat in Tetsuya's eyes. Even so, Kimimaro still firmly maintained the initiative, which shows how difficult it is to resist the attack of Shikotsumyaku.
This sickly-looking boy actually managed to suppress Tetsuya?
Just as Kimimaro launched his attack, Sasuke also activated his single-tomoe Sharingan. In his observation, Kimimaro's taijutsu attacks were unremarkable. The only strange thing was that his weapon was just a skeleton, yet it was able to suppress Tetsuya.
As Tetsuya stepped back again, leaving Kimimaro wide open with his back to him, Sasuke drew a kunai and unleashed chakra from his feet, rushing towards Kimimaro. The ninja tool transformed into a cold light, aiming straight for the back of the enemy's neck.
To Sasuke's disbelief, Kimimaro seemed to have foreseen the future, leaping up lightly and causing Sasuke's sure-fire strike to miss its mark. Then, Kimimaro stepped back with his right leg, kicking Sasuke squarely in the head, causing him to fall backward. Sasuke felt a ringing in his ears and was unable to stand up for a moment.
Even though the Sharingan had already detected his attack intentions, why couldn't he avoid it?
How can I, with my weak strength, seek revenge on that man?
"Without the Corpse Bone Pulse Bloodline Limit, it's impossible to unleash the full power of the Kaguya clan's taijutsu."
Kimimaro landed gracefully after defeating Sasuke, but did not continue his attack. He looked at Tetsuya and suddenly spoke.
Orochimaru never forgot about the Sharingan, and Kimimaro, having been exposed to it all along, was naturally familiar with it as well. Despite having the ability to counterattack, Tetsuya focused most of his energy on defense, which allowed the astute Kimimaro to guess Tetsuya's thoughts.
Use the Sharingan to copy your own Willow Dance!
"As far as I know, Kaguya, one of the two great ninja clans of Kirigakure, was wiped out many years ago due to a coup. You are probably the last of the Shikotsumyaku clan, right? Since it is the last dance, we must appreciate it properly and leave no regrets."
Tetsuya was surprised by Kimimaro's insight and could only shrug.
Although I don't have the Corpse Bone Cultivation Technique yet, how do you know I won't in the future?
The projections belonging to Kimimaro had already lit up one after another, but as for when to draw them, Tetsuya still needed to think it over carefully.
Tetsuya's positioning of the Shikotsumyaku (Corpse Bone Pulse) was primarily to further compensate for the weakness of ninjas who are high in attack but low in defense, and to regard it as a supplement to perfecting the Otsutsuki bloodline.
"I possess five different dances. If you want to see them, then take a good look!"
Kimimaro's left arm emitted a series of cracking sounds like firecrackers, and his right hand gripped the protruding handle and slowly pulled it out, forming a pure white bone blade.
Corpse Bone Vein: Dance of the Camellia.
Compared to the bones Kimimaro had casually pulled out before, this specially made bone blade was even harder than most ninja tools. Combined with the weapon techniques honed by the Kaguya clan, it was virtually indestructible.
When Orochimaru attempted to assassinate the Fourth Kazekage, it was Kimimaro who used the Dance of the Camellia to break through Rasa's Magnet Release: Gold Sand defense, creating an excellent opportunity for Orochimaru to strike him through the chest with the Kusanagi Sword.
Kimimaro's chakra suddenly erupted as he gripped the bone blade tightly, and he used the Body Flicker Technique to rush towards Tetsuya. The bone blade in his hand swept out horizontally, and a series of attacks surged towards Tetsuya like a tide. Each swing of the bone blade produced a sharp sound of wind breaking, and when he swung his arm, he showed an abnormal flexibility and suppleness.
Ding!
Even with his Sharingan activated, Tetsuya was still overwhelmed by Kimimaro's barrage of attacks. When the bone blade swept out again, Tetsuya had no choice but to parry with his kunai. However, the steel ninja tool crumbled almost instantly in front of the bone blade, and was cut in two almost without any resistance.
it's over!
Your biggest mistake was engaging in a physical combat contest with the Kaguya clan!
The instant the kunai was severed, Kimimaro's eyes sharpened, and the bone blade in his hand thrust towards Tetsuya at an even faster speed than before, leaving no chance for the opponent to make amends.
So fast!
Sasuke, who was leaning against the corner watching the battle with a heavy heart, had his one-tomoe Sharingan tremble rapidly a few times, but he still couldn't catch the afterimage left by Kimimaro's movements.
If you were hit by such an attack, you would die!
Sasuke swung his arm, and several shuriken shot towards Kimimaro's back, attempting to relieve the siege by attacking the enemy's rear and forcing Kimimaro to turn around and save himself.
Ding Ding Ding!
However, when the shuriken struck Kimimaro's back, it produced a crisp metallic clang, and the numerous shuriken were deflected, failing to harm Kimimaro in the slightest.
It's bone!
He actually used his bones to defend himself, deflecting the shuriken.
The shuriken sliced through Kimimaro's gray robe, revealing not skin, but a white bone plate.
However, to Sasuke's relief, Kimimaro's seemingly inevitable strike hovered less than two inches from Tetsuya's heart, that final distance feeling like an insurmountable chasm.
Is it an illusion?
Although the Sharingan with only one tomoe has limited observational abilities, Sasuke still managed to detect that Kimimaro's chakra was clearly disordered.
That's right. Tetsuya is very afraid of his life. If he didn't have absolute certainty, why would he use his weakness against the opponent's strength?
Boom!
Within the illusionary space, Kimimaro could clearly hear the beating of his heart in his ears.
Kimimaro lowered his head slightly and saw that several thick metal nails had been inserted into his body. He knew he was under the influence of an illusion, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not break free from the spell.
Illusion Technique: The Art of Shackles.
Is this the powerful eye force of the Sharingan? No wonder Lord Orochimaru has been so obsessed with it.
However, you seem to have forgotten that what sustains me now is my will!
A chilling chakra surged wildly from Kimimaro's Earth Curse Seal, restoring his previously chaotic chakra to its original state. Kimimaro, whose body was covered in black striped markings, stretched out his arm and swung his bone blade to continue stabbing at Tetsuya.
