Chapter 580: Chapter 515: Corresponding Profession Chapter 580: Chapter 515: Corresponding Profession “Your intelligence capabilities are impressive indeed,” Shaman said, somewhat wistfully.
“After all, we share intelligence with the Thieves Guild, and unless I’m mistaken, he must have attacked the Thieves Guild’s headquarters multiple times.”
Hope’s tone remained flat, betraying no pride in uncovering such detailed intelligence, as if it were all to be expected.
“But his ability is quite troublesome too, actually involving space.
With such advanced skills, could it be a Duel talent?” Shaman seemed a bit envious.
One can realize its rarity just by looking at the availability of spatial devices.
Even Shaman, who came from Floating City, only managed to get a second-hand spatial storage device after advancing to a World Breaker.
It’s not a matter of money; such items are hard to buy regardless of wealth.
And without sufficient power, unless it’s a mechanical modification for ammunition, it shouldn’t be used prematurely.
For ordinary senior partners, possessing such an item is rather a risk.
Before becoming a World Breaker, it would be better to use the cost to enhance one’s strength.
And yet, that guy could actually pull people into space!
“It sounds very much like a Duel, or a similar ability.
“Usually, maintaining physical space requires energy consumption, so he could probably only use it during combat.
“But indeed, as you said, it’s very troublesome.
Besides Ai and Kirabi being captured by him together, any of us alone could be defeated by his formidable physical strength.”
Hope indeed had many sources of intelligence, and he had considerable knowledge about spatial abilities.
It’s like Grandmaster’s Artistic Conception, Domain, Unity of Heaven and Man, and other spiritual abilities, eventually converging from different paths.
Although there are many types of spatial abilities, it’s also possible to infer one or two from them.
They were all World Breaker level, with extremely strong comprehension and perception abilities, so they weren’t overly shocked.
“There’s no need to worry too much.
Such obvious destruction by itself actually indicates that the opponent’s strength is limited and won’t exceed our expectations.
With what we’ve prepared, it should be sufficient,” said Doran, who had been silent until now, appearing quite confident.
Others might be terrified at the sight of a collapsing mountain and the remnants of battle.
But for World Breakers, this is actually a testament to insufficient strength!
“Indeed, if he were truly beyond our capability to oppose, it would have been calm.
Such a commotion, even damaging the outskirts of what will be our base, indeed suggests that he likely used his full strength.”
Hope nodded in agreement with this assessment.
“What exactly are these preparations you speak of?
I should be clear that if I think we can’t handle it, I’ll prioritize my own safety when the time comes,” Shaman said, unable to hold back any longer, as they moved closer to the breach in the sandstorm.
Even though these spice-laden sandstorms greatly affect various perception abilities and devices, they might still be detected by ninjas scouting around.
He hadn’t known such specific intelligence before he left.
It was clear they had only mentioned it at the last minute on purpose.
At this moment, Doran and Hope exchanged a smile,
“The reason we’re telling you only now is mainly because we didn’t quite trust you.
Relax, we aren’t here to make ourselves uncomfortable.
If you’re pulled in, use it actively; it’s very effective against physical abilities,” said the doll-like Hope, matter-of-factly.
He then handed Shaman an amber-colored crystal resembling a drop of fresh red blood inside, glistening brightly.
You guys really do have some good stuff.”
Shaman’s expression visibly softened as he tucked the item into his pocket.
Even if he didn’t use it, it was still a valuable gain for him.
Indeed, having prior intelligence about the opponent allowed for bringing out the right countermeasures!
Hope was undoubtedly professional…
Doran and Hope had timed their arrival to the collapsed mountain perfectly.
Just beyond the overturned slope was the territory of the Harkonnen Family!
The sandstorm was beginning to abate, though it was still pouring sand inside.
Kirabi, according to the agreement, you can start making big moves now,” the ordinary-looking Doran told Kirabi.
His gaze at Kirabi held a hint of peculiarity.
Kirabi’s ability might involve some external power, perhaps even something that could be seized.
However, with scant intelligence at this moment, it wasn’t time to consider that.
First to handle the matter at hand.
Eliminating the Harkonnen Family’s accumulated spice and several key figures!
This time, it would really make a name for themselves, serving as an opening ceremony for subsequent actions!
The benefits of the New Development Zone, the Suns cannot take all!
“Now, let the show begin.”
Kirabi, always restless, began to rap again upon hearing Doran’s words.
As a ninja, when it came to the interests of the village, they acted without hesitation.
As the perfect Jinchuriki and the powerful Eight-Tails, Kirabi’s strength was undeniable!
A massive beast roared, tearing through the remaining sandstorm and instantly “cleansing” the nearby air significantly.
The terrifying roar immediately alerted the stationed ninjas inside the Harkonnen base.
With such astonishment, Yecang and the three Jonin from the Village Hidden by Sand, along with Treya, and the duo Kisame and Hikariya Yo, all swiftly leaped upward to a higher point, spotting the large Tailed Beast beyond the fractured cliff!
“It’s the Eight-Tailed Ox Demon!”
“How could it appear here?!”
“Cloud Hidden, maybe…”
Although the Ox Demon was not as large as a sandworm in terms of size,
the oppressive aura it brought upon appearing here was far more intense in the eyes of the ninjas!
Clusters of black dots began to converge into the mouth of the Ox Demon, and the Tailed Beast Sphere started appearing without any hesitation.
Met, transformed, and delivered a deadly strike!
This left the knowledgeable ninjas with a somber expression.
Even the Shaman, who had never seen Kirabi in action, stood beside them with a face full of shock.
Seeing the converging wild energy, their hearts were shocked.
In terms of energy magnitude, the seemingly ludicrous wandering singer was actually surpassing his own!
Such an outright brute force attack, although clumsy, was also very tough to counter!
Even without much finesse, it was still extremely troublesome.
But thankfully, it was an ally…
“Be careful not to blow up the Spice warehouse!”
“Don’t worry, the Spice warehouse isn’t in this direction, we’re not about to make that kind of rookie mistake.”
Hope had already positioned herself at the edge of the broken mountain, watching the serious-faced ninjas inside and a shark-faced man forming a gigantic water wall through large-scale Water Escape.
A look of admiration appeared on her face.
“My earlier prediction was indeed correct, Kisame’s chakra is incredibly robust.
Though he seems just a Jonin, he has the potential of a Kage.
However, this loose energy use, though seemingly grand, wouldn’t possibly withstand the Tailed Beast Sphere!”
Hope stood with her hands behind her back, unfazed by the unfolding events, as if everything was within her control.
The Tailed Beast Sphere gathered completed, and accompanied by a sharp sonorous whistle, it blasted forward.
The pitch-black sphere came with an aura of death.
This was indeed a true weapon of war!
Instantly, the Ox Demon began gathering the second Tailed Beast Sphere without any gaps!
“Water Escape: Water Wall!”
Kisame seriously formed hand seals, recklessly expending the chakra within his body.
Given that the Village Hidden by Sand also existed in this world, the activity level of local chakra wasn’t low, allowing Kisame to perform Ninjutsu unimpeded.
In this arid desert climate, he still forcefully created a ‘sea’.
A water wall, tens of meters high, erupted from the ground, directly blocking in front of the Tailed Beast Sphere, looking utterly spectacular.
However, facing the highly concentrated energy of the Tailed Beast Sphere, the water wall was instantly pierced through, unable to slow it down even slightly!
“You should have directly attacked with the Water Dragon Bullet, that might have been more effective…”
Tao Yu’s voice reached Kisame’s ears, followed by a half-hearted formation of a hand seal.
Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique!
A dragon erupted from the earth, breaking through the water created by Kisame.
With a mighty Dragon’s Chant, it bit directly at the Tailed Beast Sphere, catching it in its jaws.
While the sealing technique attached to the dragon held the Tailed Beast Sphere tightly preventing it from exploding, it also used brute force to push the sphere toward the direction of the mountain gap.
This caused Hope, who had been standing with her hands behind her back, controlling everything, to show a slight change in expression.
This was slightly different from the plan!
“She underestimated him; he got new abilities from somewhere else…”
Hope’s expression darkened as she made a judgement immediately.
Ai and the transformed Kirabi were even more astonished.
But at that moment, it wasn’t up to them to contemplate further, dealing with the incoming Wood Dragon was the priority.
Kirabi knew best how strong the Tailed Beast Sphere of the Eight-Tails was…
