Chapter 91 Chimera Beast, King of Shadows
The air currents mixed with rain slapped against Fukuyo's face as he flew at high speed, washing away the bloodstains that Hanzo had previously scratched.
However, Fu Heiyao did not use the reversal technique to heal, but instead focused all his energy on it.
"By using the fusion of 90% of the Chimera Beast's defense as a constraint, I can gain a series of buffs, including the manipulation of cursed power."
Fu Heiyao established a restraint, forcibly exchanging it for a state close to that of Black Flash.
Although it sounds simple, in reality, Fukokuyo needs to add many supplementary clauses.
These are all things he has gradually figured out over the years through trial and error, using constraints as a guide.
The "loan" is made by sacrificing 90% of Chimera Beast's defense, as well as by incurring some restrictions that reduce the duration of Chimera Beast's attacks.

He then quickly formed hand seals, performing each step strictly according to the ritual of the Ten Shadows Technique, without any deviation.
He first formed the seals of the Jade Dog and the Toad, shaping the shadow into a giant snake. But just as the Unending Throat was about to appear, Obsidian did not stop; he continued to expand.
The handprints almost instantly connected with the deer, and then the shadow was edited into the shape of a tiger burial.
In an instant, the already turbulent shadows trembled violently as if erupting from a volcano.
The ground beneath Fu Heiyao's feet suddenly vanished, and under the influence of gravity, Fu Heiyao plummeted straight towards the salamander.
"Does this brat want to hurt the salamander from the inside?" Hanzo saw Fushiko's almost suicidal charge and instead of seeing it as a good opportunity, he felt it was a trap.
He felt that Fu Heiyao wanted to defeat the Salamander from within, since even the strongest creature is vulnerable inside.
Combining the ability of Obsidian Fubuki to cleave through poisonous mist with the ability of Susanoo to briefly resist it, this possibility is quite high.
"Be careful, it might be a trap." Hanzo gave the order, while the spotted salamander was quite displeased. "Hanzo, is it really necessary to be this cautious?"
"He has a way to resist your poisonous fog," Hanzo said in a deep voice, revealing his earlier guess.
"I'm not your average salamander." The spotted salamander was initially startled, then sneered. "My body is filled with high-density poison gas. Any living thing I swallow will never escape!"
Having said that, the salamander opened its mouth wide and aimed it at Fu Heiyao, seemingly waiting for his delivery.
Hanzo was helpless against the salamander's disobedient behavior and could only hope that Fushiko had really made a stupid mistake this time.
At the very least, he should cripple Fu Heiyao for a period of time, so that he can focus on fighting those three ninjas.
"What a beast."
Fu Heiyao couldn't help but sneer when he saw the salamander's countermeasure.
"What on earth is that brat Fukuro doing?" Jiraiya frowned as he watched Fukuro fall like a dazed fool.
Orochimaru and Tsunade also looked grim. They were closest to the Salamander and could sense the danger Fukuko was in.
If Fu Heiyao were swallowed whole by a salamander, its venom would likely corrode him into pus and blood instantly, beyond the reach of any reversal technique.
Even the elite ninjas in the camp couldn't help but look in this direction.
The reason is simply that the size of the salamander is too eye-catching; it is even larger than Manda and Gamabunta.
"Look, that seems to be Lord Yao's summoned beast?"
Someone pointed to the salamander approaching in the sky.
"The summoning beast has disappeared?" The man's eyes widened in disbelief, especially when he saw the salamander's mouth agape.
Even the Uchiha were somewhat at a loss, wondering what Fukuyo was up to.
Only Orochimaru and Tsunade, who were closest to Fukuyo, could see Fukuyo's movements clearly.
"Is he forming a hand seal?"
"Very complicated hand seals and gestures." Tsunade said in surprise, "This is the first time I've seen him perform hand seals so formally."
"Could it be some kind of forbidden technique?"
"These aren't hand seals." Orochimaru narrowed his eyes. "Those seals are special gestures he uses to summon his summoned beasts."
"But what kind of summoning beast would require so many hand seals?" Tsunade was even more puzzled.
In the past, Fu Heiyao only needed to form a hand seal to summon a spirit beast, but what exactly does he want to do now?
He not only spent a lot of time forming hand seals, but also canceled the only way he could gain an advantage in flight.
Isn't this just courting death?
"Could it be!?" As if realizing something, Orochimaru suddenly looked down at Fukuko's lower body.
While everyone's attention was focused on Fukuyo, Orochimaru alone paid attention to the dark shadows.
The shadows expanded silently, spreading like ink across the surroundings, and now formed a vast network of shadows.
Just as the salamander was taking steps that made the earth tremble, preparing to swallow Fukuoko whole.
"Click!"
The heavy shadow was torn apart, as if the gateway between shadow and reality had been shattered, and everyone present seemed to hear the sound of the shattering.
Immediately afterwards, a massive amount of chakra was concentrated and released instantly.
The white tiger-striped gauntlets, crackling with intense lightning and howling wind, struck the salamander's face.
The simple and direct punch suddenly unleashed an impact force like a cannonball.
It was as if all the power was concentrated into one point, with no waste whatsoever.
The violent impact felt like an invisible wall slamming into the face of the salamander.
The salamander let out a painful scream, and the next moment, it was sent flying backward, along with Hanzo above it, who instinctively detached himself from the salamander.
With a loud bang, the ground, which was already burrowing underground due to the salamanders, collapsed, creating a huge, astonishing crater.
The dust kicked up by the pebbles was quickly extinguished by the heavy rain, and the water that was splashed up rose up like waves before flowing back into the giant pit.
"Really?!"
When Hanzo looked up at the "monster" standing in the heavy rain, he was terrified.
Where the salamander had been standing, now stood a colossal creature nearly the same size as the salamander.
The newly introduced summoning beast does not belong to any known creature, or rather, it incorporates characteristics of different creatures.
What comes into view is a tiger's head with prominent antlers, a fierce and imposing presence, and subtle dark lines on its forehead, exuding an aura of authority without anger.
His torso is inherited from the Enshi, with smooth and agile lines, and a pair of feathers that spread out behind him like wings hanging from the sky.
(Refer to the Five Spirit Kings)
As Zhiyu flapped his wings, the blazing electric current wrapped around the Chimera Beast's body suddenly lit up, illuminating the illusory image that flowed around his body like a worm.
The King of Shadows possesses over a hundred chakra reserves within the Throat of Unending Slumber, plus the cursed power provided by Obsidian Fukuhara.
The terrifying burst of chakra was like lightning tearing through the Rain Village, causing everyone to freeze in their tracks.
"Chimera Beast, King of Shadows." Fu Heiyao looked down at the flattened salamander in the pit and the somewhat bewildered Hanzo.
I am very satisfied with this chimera beast making its debut.
This is currently his ultimate form, a powerful Chimera Beast that combines the endurance and defense of the Unending Throat, the recovery of the Deer, the lightning, and the stats of the Tiger Burial.
"Could this also be a summoning beast from the Yao Contract?" On the battlefield, Nawaki casually dodged the attack of the Amegakure Chunin and threw him a kunai wrapped with an explosive tag.
The ensuing explosion did not bring him any pride or joy; instead, he stared in utter shock at the two colossal figures that stood in stark contrast on the battlefield.
"If nothing unexpected happens, then it is. After all, no one but Yao can possess such a unique chakra aura."
As a streak of lightning flashed by, accompanied by a gust of wind, blood splattered from the necks of the surrounding Rain Village ninjas. The next moment, Minato appeared beside Nawaki.
The two gazed together at the colossal beast on the battlefield, which resembled a tailed beast and exuded an oppressive aura at all times.
"This level of chakra feels even stronger than the teacher's!?" Jiraiya exclaimed in surprise.
"You've really made a splash, kid!" Tsunade grinned and laughed heartily.
"This is truly outrageous. Is it really a summoned beast?"
Manda and Bunta, being creatures raised in the sacred land and possessing sage techniques, naturally have far more acute senses than humans.
In their eyes, the figure radiating astonishing chakra fluctuations seemed to lack something a living being should possess.
It is neither human, nor immortal, nor demon; if one had to describe it, it seems to be a derivative of that human.
"Something truly extraordinary has emerged." Orochimaru's shock surpassed that of anyone else.
Because he was focused on something deeper, his student Fu Heiyao may have lied to him.
His Shadow Cloaking wasn't a technique that used shadows to escape, but something much deeper and more complex.
However, he was not angry at all; on the contrary, he was even more delighted.
"Fu Heiyao, my student, just how many more trump cards do you have up your sleeve? And just how big of a windmill can this powerful gust of wind push?"
Orochimaru's eyes were filled with fervor, and he had high expectations for Fukuyo's future.
"Such powerful chakra." Just as Hanzo was moved by it, he suddenly noticed a strange sound coming from the ground beneath his feet.
The ground was covered with spiderweb-like, pitch-black cracks that stretched rapidly along the way.
With a deafening roar, the earth cracked open, and a colorful, patterned salamander burst forth from the ground, its rough, hoarse voice carrying a bloodthirsty ferocity: "I wonder how it tastes!"
The salamander is making its move.
He opened his blood-red maw, his sharp teeth, reeking of venomous black saliva, ignored the fist aimed at his head and bit down hard on the Shadow King's arm.
The black, viscous poison dripped onto the ground with a corrosive sound, but it was now being injected into the Shadow King's arm.
But the result was somewhat unexpected, because before the salamander's toxins could take effect, its enormous bite force tore off the Shadow King's entire arm.
"So it was just a showpiece!" the salamander laughed heartily.
Orochimaru and his two companions couldn't help but show expressions of worry.
Even Manda and Gamabunta were speechless. When he first appeared, he was clearly as strong as a monster, but he turned out to be as fragile as a piece of paper.
Upon seeing this, the Rain Village ninja in the distance were greatly encouraged, while Nawaki and Minato's expressions changed drastically.
"It's really fragile, but there's nothing we can do about it. Who made us put up these constraints?" Fu Heiyao wasn't alarmed when he saw the Shadow King's arm being torn off; he just smiled calmly.
Because the next moment, along with the surging steam of the Shadow King's super-fast regeneration, the Sharingan in his eyes also spun rapidly.
The cold and malevolent power of the eyes penetrated deep into the Shadow King's body from Obsidian Fu, and began to connect through the natural bond between the shikigami and its master.
"Is it good?" Fu Heiyao's eyes were bloodshot, radiating a menacing aura that even made the salamander turn its head. "Then I'll treat you to something different!"
It was too late when the salamander realized something was wrong; the Shadow King's other hand suddenly emitted a dazzling dark red beam of light.
A dark red beam of light flashed for a moment and then condensed into a Susanoo sword on the back of his hand.
The moment the salamander swallowed the arm, the Susanoo sword followed closely behind the Shadow King's fist and pierced into the salamander's jaw.
Purple, venomous blood flowed uncontrollably. This time, the salamander's screams were even more agonizing, like a fish struggling and writhing after being brought ashore.
In his panic, he sprayed venom at the Shadow King, but before the venomous mist could condense, the Shadow King's rapidly regenerating arm, which was pressing against the Susanoo sword, pierced through his upper jaw and clamped down on the salamander's mouth.
The dissipated black poisonous fog was neutralized and degraded by the heavy rain, and only then did everyone realize that the Shadow King's appearance had changed.
The dark red Susanoo armor radiated a cold light in all directions, like a scarlet sun.
The chakra mask, outlining the majesty and oppressive aura of the king of beasts, was closely attached to the Shadow King under everyone's gaze.
Completely cover the last weakness of the Shadow King's entire body.
Beneath the mask, scorching chakra flames, resembling magma, emanated, inspiring awe in all who beheld them.
