The Parasite's First Grim Revelation

Chapter 21 The Parasite's First Grim Revelation

"You guys..."

The leader of the Xuanyuan Clan escaped the fire escape's range in a very disheveled state, with multiple burns on his body.

Because of the need to conceal chakra, the body enters a dormant state, making it impossible to react immediately when danger is detected.

The only option was to awaken the body, which wasted some time and led to disastrous consequences.

One of the Jonin of the Xuanyuan Clan died in a combined attack of Fire Release and Wind Release techniques unleashed by the Anbu ninja.

The other Jonin was not dead but had lost his ability to fight and lay motionless on the ground.

At this moment, the importance of intelligence became clear: the leak of intelligence led to the complete annihilation of the upper echelons of the Xuanyuan forces.

"I want……"

Before the leader of the Xuanyuan Clan could finish speaking, Yu Nu Zhiwei, the captain of the Dark Division, Deng, and the vice-captain Xiang rushed towards the leader of the Xuanyuan Clan, intending to finish the battle quickly.

"Since that's the case, then you will all be buried with me."

Seeing this, the leaders of the Xuanyuan tribe knew that their chances of survival were slim, so they decided not to run away anymore.

"Exploding Bug".

The leader of the Xuanyuan clan unleashed a burst of light with all his might, using the ninjutsu Exploding Insect.

"Secret Technique: Insect Jade"

Yu Nu Zhiwei quickly approached the leaders of the Xuanyuan Clan and launched the first attack.

The lamp and the elephant followed closely behind in perfect unison.

The leaders of the Xuanyuan clan gritted their teeth and persevered, hoping to hold out a little longer so that the enemy's use of chakra would provide nourishment for the Exploding Insects.

If this continues, the leaders of the Xuanyuan clan still have a slim hope of victory.

When Yu Nu Zhiyi saw the leaders of the Xuanyuan Clan using the Exploding Insects, he immediately sensed it through the Phosphorus Damage Insects within his body, and the larvae of the Exploding Insects entered his body.

Instead of ordering the Phosphorous Damage Insects to kill the Exploding Insects, Shiki Aburame silently chanted "Assimilate" in his mind.

The primal Gu that had been following Aburame Shiki once again demonstrated its power, instantly assimilating the Exploding Worm that had entered Aburame Shiki's body.

"We can go back to the Aburame clan's territory to conduct further experiments; the Burst Bug still has great potential."

Aburame Shiichi was very happy to obtain the Burst Bug, which further enhanced his abilities.

The Xuanyuan clan's genin, who were acting as bait, and the chunin who were hiding, watched this scene in a daze, not able to react at all.

"What's going on?!"

"Oh no, it's the enemy! Is the leader alright?!"

"Kill them!"

Because the Fire Release and Wind Release techniques primarily target the Jonin of the Xuanyuan Clan, the Chunin and Genin of the Xuanyuan Clan, unless they were extremely unlucky, did not suffer severe damage.

Seeing this, the remaining members of the Xuanyuan clan knew that if their leader was defeated, they would not survive either, so they decided to kill two more before they died.

Xuanyuan launched an attack on the You Nu Zhiwei squad.

"Secret Technique: Parasite".

"Ninjutsu: Beastman Clone, Fang Through Fang".

Yu Nu Zhiyi released parasitic worms, which swarmed towards Xuan Yuan Zhong in dense numbers.

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough"

A member of the Xuanyuan Clan used Wind Release ninjutsu to attack Aburame Shiki's parasitic worms.

This was exactly what Aburame Shiki wanted, and as he controlled the parasitic insects to be attacked by Wind Release: Great Breakthrough, he dispersed them.

In the eyes of the Xuanyuan Clan, it was their Wind Release technique that scattered the insects belonging to Aburame Shiki.

"What a weak bug, it can't compare to our Burst Bug at all."

Upon seeing this, Inuzuka Aoi immediately used Fang Fang to charge at Xuanyuan Clan, cooperating with Aburame Shiitsu in the battle.

Seeing this, Ri Xiangyang also rushed forward and engaged in close combat with Xuanyuan's men.

When the Xuanyuan Clan saw Inuzuka Aoi charging towards them with her Fang-Piercing Fang, they immediately scattered.

There's no need for a direct confrontation. Xuanyuan Clan plans to attack immediately after Inuzuka Aoi finishes using Fang Over Fang.

They simply didn't notice, or didn't pay attention to, the few small insects rushing towards them.

The Xuanyuan Clan's attention was entirely focused on Inuzuka Aoi, and when they saw her stop, their eyes revealed a cruel glint.

Before Xuanyuan could even use his ninjutsu, they all felt a numbness throughout their bodies and collapsed.

It was Aburame Shiki's parasite that touched them.

It heralded the arrival of death.

Then a purple hue quickly took over the entire body of Xuanyuan Zhong.

All of Xuanyuan's men quickly lost their breath.

Looking at the dozen or so Xuanyuan members who had all died suddenly, Inuzuka Aoi sighed:

"No matter how many times I watch it, Zhiyi, your bugs are terrifying. Luckily they're teammates; if they were enemies, I can't even imagine what would happen."

Hinata nodded in agreement. These members of the Xuanyuan Clan were all quite strong, and he and Inuzuka Aoi had at most served to attract their attention.

The real killer was Aburame Shiichi's insect.

Among the Xuanyuan Clan they faced were several Chunin; if it were a head-on confrontation, Hinata and Inuzuka Aoi would have no choice but to run away.

Hopefully, they can hold out until Master Aburame Shiki defeats the leader of the Xuanyuan Clan and then come to their aid.

With Aburame Shiki, even the Chunin of the Xuanyuan Clan proved to be no match for them, and they were all wiped out in one fell swoop.

At the same time, the leaders of the Xuanyuan Clan were also having a very difficult time.

Surrounded by three elite Jonin, the leader of the Xuanyuan Clan faced numerous perilous situations, but he could not hold out for long.

"Damn it! Why haven't the Exploding Bugs grown yet?"

The leaders of the Xuanyuan clan persevered for a while longer, but finally could not hold on any longer.

The leaders of the Xuanyuan clan, beaten to the ground, asked resentfully, "Why weren't you affected by the exploding bugs? Why didn't the exploding bugs explode?"

Without explaining to the leader of the Xuanyuan Clan, the three Jonin, including Shiki Aburame, plunged a kunai directly into his heart, ending his life.

Having confirmed the death of the leader of Xuanyuan, the three Jonin, including Aburame Shiki, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The leader of the Xuanyuan Clan was indeed very powerful, and it would be very difficult for Aburame Shiki and the other two to kill him without wanting to cause the sacrifice of their comrades.

The only option is to cooperate with the leader of the Xuanyuan Clan, give him hope, and slowly wear him down.

This time, a great achievement was made without any casualties, and Aburame Shiki and the Anbu ninjas were all satisfied.

No one wants to die, and no one wants to see their comrade sacrificed before their eyes.

"This time, we have made a great contribution, thanks to Aburame Shiki's accurate intelligence. He took action in advance and caught the Xuanyuan Clan off guard, which laid the foundation for victory."

"We do need to cultivate some reconnaissance insects that don't contain chakra in the future. Although it will cost a lot, it can be surprisingly effective if the right conditions are right."

Aburame Shiki made up her mind to allocate some resources to cultivate insects that do not contain chakra and are used for reconnaissance.

Yu Nu Zhiwei watched as the leader of the Xuanyuan Clan was captured by the Dark Army Captain Deng using a sealing scroll, without saying a word.

They did this mission together; no one could do it without the other.

It's good that the ANBU ninja collected the corpse of the leader of the Xuanyuan Clan. This makes things much easier, as he won't need to go to the interrogation department to extract information from the leader's mind.

If possible, he would also like to ask about the breeding methods of Burst Bugs. If Burst Bugs could be successfully bred, the strength and foundation of the Aburame clan would increase significantly.

Hopefully, the Burst Bugs were bred from ordinary bugs; otherwise, it will be difficult.

Because insect breeding is usually very fast, it is necessary to prepare a suitable ecological environment for the insects. If the supply is cut off for a few days, the insect ecosystem will suffer a devastating blow.

Once all the insects are dead, there's no way to cultivate them anymore; you can't create something from nothing.

The Burst Bugs are really powerful. If it weren't for the Phosphorus Damage Bugs that Shizuka Aburame injected beforehand to kill the Burst Bugs, the outcome would have been very uncertain.

Aburame Shiki had an idea about the Burst Bugs that could enhance the strength of the Aburame clan.
