: The Guyver Armor Arrives

Chapter 89: The Guyver Armor Arrives

The land of rain.

Konoha's western front camp.

The sudden appearance of reinforcements attracted the attention of the Konoha ninja.

At this moment, every bit of strength is invaluable.

Danzo arrived here and immediately went to find Orochimaru, entering the camp and then disappearing.

Danzo was still not used to exposing himself to everyone.

This made him feel very insecure.

Shiki followed behind Danzo and was speechless at what he saw. How could they give up such a good opportunity?

The Konoha ninja on the western front were already excited to see reinforcements arrive.

At this point, Danzo, as the leader of the reinforcements, could easily gain a lot of prestige with a single call to arms, but Danzo simply gave up.

Give you a chance, you are useless!

It seems Danzo has gotten used to staying in the comfort zone of Root provided by the Third Hokage.

"Orochimaru, you did well. I will end everything now!"

Danzo immediately took the initiative, praising Orochimaru in the tone of a superior.

Orochimaru didn't react much to what he said, his smile still on his face, though it looked somewhat sinister given his demeanor.

"What's the specific situation of the battle? I need to assess it."

Although his Root organization had gathered a great deal of detailed information, he still wanted to hear what Orochimaru had to say.

After all, Orochimaru was the commander-in-chief, and he certainly knew more about the frontline intelligence than the Root organization.

"It's alright. The Sand Ninja's initial offensive was fierce, but after it was blocked, they got into a stalemate. The Iwa Ninja, on the other hand, fought steadily, which has its advantages and disadvantages."

Orochimaru explained the overall situation to Danzo, and there was no need for him to say anything more, as Danzo, as the leader of Root, had no shortage of information.

"I heard that Shizuri has developed the [Bio-Enhanced Armor] which can greatly enhance a ninja's strength. I'm very curious."

Orochimaru looked at Shizuru, who was standing behind Danzo, his eyes filled with curiosity.

Orochimaru admitted that Shiitsu was very talented in insects and had given him a lot of inspiration.

One of them is the parasitic worm.

During the war, he conducted many experiments using his authority as commander-in-chief.

To Orochimaru's surprise, the parasitic worms had undergone significant improvements under his modifications.

It can no longer be called a parasitic worm, but a new species—the dead soul worm!

These dead soul worms can collect the soul energy left behind by dead ninjas.

After each major battle, Orochimaru would obtain a large amount of soul energy through the Soul-Dead Insects, which would nourish his soul.

Orochimaru was utterly captivated by that feeling; he could clearly sense his soul being replenished and his lifespan being extended.

Therefore, Orochimaru was very interested in Shiitsu and looked forward to this junior bringing him another surprise.

"The Guyver Armor has arrived. This is the first batch. It will be distributed to the ninjas fighting on the front lines. If it works well, there will be a second and a third batch later."

Orochimaru took the sealing scroll and released one directly.

Looking at the round container, Orochimaru picked it up directly.

He had already received intelligence about the bio-armor and wanted to experience it for himself to see if it was of any use to him.

The circular device released a large number of tentacles that enveloped Orochimaru.

Orochimaru did not resist; these tentacles were child's play to him.

"This feeling is very strange."

Orochimaru moved around a little and quickly got a general idea of ​​the situation with the Guyver Armor.

"The Guyver Armor has very strong defense, which will greatly reduce the casualties of frontline ninjas. It is very suitable for the current Konoha ninjas."

"What's even more amazing is that the bio-armor has become connected to my will! This makes the bio-armor a part of me, and its mobility remains unaffected."

Orochimaru's expression flashed with surprise. This meant that the Bio-Armor wasn't just suitable for low-level ninjas, but could also be adapted to fit Orochimaru alone.

"This is the initial version, like a blank sheet of paper. Users can paint on it according to their own will until it becomes their own shape."

Shiichi added, emphasizing the value of the Guyver Armor, "Of course, only Jonin have the potential to modify the Guyver Armor to create their own style. Genin and Chunin mainly value its defensive capabilities."

"Shiichi, you've really given me a pleasant surprise! This will bring about a revolution in Konoha!"

Orochimaru wasn't talking nonsense; he had already vaguely foreseen the future, and it was likely that every Konoha ninja would have a booster armor.

Enhancing defense compensates for a ninja's weaknesses; by altering the user's will, the bio-armor can be modified to enhance a ninja's specific ability or refine their tactical style.

Orochimaru retracted his Guyver armor and looked at the round device in his hand. He liked these open-ended ideas.

Just as the parasitic worms become dead worms suitable for him, this bio-armor will also be modified by him to become the Orochimaru-style bio-armor.

"This is the first batch of bio-armor; distribute them as soon as possible. I have some other things to attend to; once I return, this will all be over!"

Orochimaru didn't care what Danzo's purpose was; it was probably something shady again.

"Zhiyi, can we continue our conversation?"

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru, I would also like to exchange techniques with you."

Danzo left Orochimaru with half of the Wood Release test subjects before hastily leading the remaining one hundred away.

Danzo couldn't wait any longer, but years of caution made him decide to play it safe.

The Akatsuki organization is quite powerful and possesses the Rinnegan, so Danzo didn't want to be the first to rush in and test whether the Rinnegan truly lived up to its name.

Danzo needs an "ally" to pave the way, such as... Hanzo.

Danzo did not believe that the current Hanzo would be willing to accept the Akatsuki organization, which threatened his position.

This is the opportunity for cooperation.

"Ryoma, go and contact Hanzo. I need to see him."

……

After the Konoha ninjas obtained the Guyver Armor, they experienced its power firsthand.

While improvements in physical fitness may not be very noticeable for Jonin, they can be quite significant for Genin and Chunin.

Ignoring the defensive capabilities of kunai further increases the chances of survival for Konoha ninjas.

The connection of wills makes the Guyver Armor an integral part of the ninja, without affecting the ninja's agility, and at the same time, it gives the Guyver Armor unlimited potential.

"With the Guyver Armor, we're no longer afraid of the Sand Ninja!"

"Yes, the Sand Ninja puppets are such a nuisance. There's poison everywhere, and if you get injured, you'll be poisoned. Let's see what the Sand Ninja do this time!"

"And the Iwa ninja, they need to be taught a lesson too!"

The arrival of the Guyver Armor inspired the Konoha frontline ninja.

What's the most dangerous thing in Sunagakure? The answer is poison.

While the Sand Ninja's puppets are powerful, they lack the eeriness of ninjas.

But poison is different; the Sand Ninja always like to coat their puppets with poison.

Once poisoned, there's no time to detoxify on the battlefield; you can only tough it out until the war ends and then seek treatment from a medical ninja.

With the enhanced armor, Konoha ninjas are less vulnerable to attacks from weapons coated with poison by puppets, thus eliminating their fear of poisoning.

The bio-armor is in place.

Next came the rampage of the Konoha ninja.

Every Konoha ninja looked in the direction of the Sand Village ninja, their eyes bleeding from their gaze.
