Faced with the encirclement of puppets, White Fang knew he couldn't hesitate.
He drew his short sword, lightning flickering around it, and sent slashes flying towards the surrounding puppets.
The sounds of metal clashing were incessant.
But why was Chikamatsu's Ten Puppets considered the pinnacle of puppetry?
It was because, without resorting to heretical methods like human puppets, the Ten Puppets represented the highest peak achievable with puppet technology.
Puppet masters could not only use puppets to perform ninjutsu, but the material of the Ten Puppets was also both extremely hard and lightweight, with shock absorption and various other capabilities maxed out.
At this moment, White Fang's slashes only sent the puppets flying, and he couldn't destroy them.
After being sent flying, the four puppets surrounded him again!
Simultaneously, behind them followed the other puppets that hadn't used the Three Jewels Suction Crushing!
Instantly, White Fang was heavily surrounded!
Within the encirclement, White Fang dashed left and right.
But whether it was because the materials used for this Edo Tensei body weren't good enough, or because he had slept for too long and forgotten how to fight...
It wasn't long before White Fang, firmly entangled, ultimately failed to break free.
"Ahahahaha! White Fang, die!!"
Amidst Rasa's unrestrained laughter, the sky-filling gold dust descended!
Boooooom-
A tremendous sound shook the world!
Completely disregarding the trapped Ten Puppets, Rasa directly formed hand seals!
"Gold Dust Funeral!"
Massive amounts of Chakra were injected into the sandstorm.
Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!
Sounds like heavy hammer blows continuously reverberated.
Everyone present could clearly feel the violent tremors coming from the ground!
Those were vibrations from within the sandstorm.
Feeling these tremors, both Chiyo and Ebizo were shaken!
Because this level of power was truly the best Rasa had ever displayed!
"Sister... will he succeed?"
Looking at the dazzling golden desert, Ebizo asked somewhat anxiously.
"I don't know!" Chiyo shook her head, her gaze fixed tightly on the desert.
Right now, she only felt her heart pounding, never having been so excited before.
The beating of her heart was like returning to her youth!
She was even sweating in her palms!
Her reason told her White Fang absolutely couldn't escape this.
But her emotions told her that until the very end, anything was possible.
After all, this was that Konoha's White Fang!
However, at this moment, Chiyo and Ebizo, staring intently at the golden desert awaiting the result, failed to see something.
As the controller of the golden desert, Rasa's expression was somewhat strange!
He frowned deeply as he looked inside the gold dust, the wrinkles on his forehead seemingly deep enough to trap mosquitoes!
Because Rasa could now feel the peculiar sensation when using the Gold Dust Funeral on White Fang!
It didn't feel like a solid human body, but more like paper, very fragile paper!
Thinking this, Rasa actively parted his Gold Dust, revealing the condition of the area where White Fang had been!
Then, a shocking scene unfolded before everyone's eyes!
Within the Gold Dust Funeral, White Fang's body was shattered.
However, looking past his broken surface, the interior wasn't human flesh and blood, but paper!
Sheet after sheet of pale, ash-like paper!
White Fang seemed to be a person assembled from such sheets of paper!
"This... this is..."
Seeing White Fang's condition, everyone showed stunned expressions, including White Fang himself!
"I am..."
Looking at his body, which was shattered into paper yet continuously repairing itself, White Fang was dumbfounded!
He knew his situation was off, but since he hadn't been injured before, he hadn't noticed. He never expected it to be this off!
However, seeing such a conspicuous effect, everyone present was a Ninja World's powerhouse and recognized it!
"Edo Tensei!"
Chiyo stared fixedly at White Fang, her voice seeming to squeeze through gritted teeth: "The Second Hokage's Forbidden Jutsu!"
"Good! Very good! You Konoha... truly have no shame!" Chiyo mocked.
"For the sake of the village, you'd actually drag the dead out to fight again!" Chiyo's tone was full of sarcasm. "What should I say? Truly worthy of Konoha?"
"Edo Tensei!" Hearing Chiyo's words, Rasa also remembered that Konoha indeed had such a Forbidden Jutsu.
Then, he also revealed a stunned expression: "Dragging the dead out to continue fighting... this is truly..."
'Powerful!'
That was the word Rasa wanted to use.
This was the Jutsu he dreamed of.
An undead army! Just thinking about it made him drool!
But if such a Jutsu were used against them, that would be bad!
Looking at White Fang, Rasa said: "White Fang, you were once a powerhouse after all. Even though we are enemies, we respected you!"
"So, if you're dead, then stay dead. Don't come out like this to stir up trouble!"
"You understand the situation now, don't you? Our enemy is Konoha!"
"Our enemy... is Konoha?" Hearing Rasa's words, White Fang found it very novel!
This was the first time someone had presented this theory to him.
However, he was indeed somewhat displeased about being reanimated with Edo Tensei without his consent!
