Chapter 40: Lv.20

Entering the cave, the phantom of Pain is already waiting inside.

"You are late."

Although the Pain Deva Path is only a phantom formed by the magic of the lantern body, those reincarnation eyes are soul-stirring.

"The strength of the Jinchuriki is unexpectedly strong."

Deidara's chest is still aching, and he has been hurrying and has no time to recuperate.

Rumbling, the boulders outside the cave fell, and the flashing was dark.

"let's start."

Pain made a seal with his hands, and motioned Su Xiao to put Gaara on the ground,

As Pain hit the ground with one hand, an ominous wave spread.

boom!

The smoke and dust rose, and a huge statue slowly rose from the ground. This was a Gedō Mazō Sealing Statue summoned by Pain.

The Gedō Mazō Sealing Statue has a total of nine eyes, and the whole seems to be stone, but it is not.

Two huge palms protruded from the front of the Gedō Mazō Sealing Statue, and there were shackles at the wrists.

"Very well, let's gather."

Several phantoms appeared on the fingertips of the Gedō Mazō Sealing Statue. These are the phantoms of Kisame, Itachi and others. The members of the Akatsuki organization have been preparing for a long time.

Counting Su Xiao, Pain and others, there are seven phantoms and three people in the cave.

Everyone stood on the fingertips of the Gedō Mazō Sealing Statue, exactly ten positions.

Without seeing any movement from Pain, the shackles in front of the Gedō Mazō Sealing Statue's mouth were opened.

"It will last for three days from now on. Everyone should pay more attention to their respective bodies. Absolutely, your body will arrive nearby as soon as possible, monitor the surrounding situation, and use the one with the widest range."

"understood."

After Pain ordered, Zetsu's phantom closed his eyes and looked like he was obedient.

Black Zetsu hides very deeply. Although he is the oldest in terms of qualifications, he usually does not show the slightest abnormality.

After everyone was in place, emerald green light appeared on the fingers of the ten people's feet, and different fonts appeared in the light. The word below Su Xiao was 'empty'.

"Sealing Technique - Phantom Dragons Nine Consuming Seals!"

Pain let out a low cry, and Gedō Mazō Sealing Statue spurted nine strands of chakra from its mouth. These chakras took the shape of a dragon and wrapped around Gaara below.

Gaara's mouth was wide open, and the unique chakra of the tail beast poured out of his facial features.

What Su Xiao saw was heart-wrenching, not because of how terrifying the current scene was, but because Shukaku's Chakra was absorbed a lot by him...

Facts have proved that the tailed beast has a strong resilience. Even if Su Xiao is swallowed half to death, today's Shukaku still recovers a lot of chakra.

Moreover, it is not pulling Chakra away now, but pulling away the body of Shoukaku within Gaara.

"Um?"

Pain seemed to notice the abnormality.

"Ichibi is... thin?"

Pain saw Shukaku's body through Rinnegan's eyes. He should have never seen Ichibi, but Ichibi's slack appearance made him suspicious.

"emaciated?"

Deidara clearly didn't know what was going on.

"I don't know."

Sasori was not directly involved in the battle to capture a tail.

"Maybe I shot too hard before?"

Of course, Su Xiao had to muddle through. He had close contact with Jinchuriki when he was fighting.

"Byakuya, did you capture the one-tailed Jinchuriki?"

"right."

"What was the situation at that time, be specific."

Su Xiao described the situation at that time, of course, he described the 'cut version'.

"That's how it happened, a pale red chakra suddenly appeared, and there were faint shouts."

"What shout?"

"I can't hear clearly, I only hear a type of seal. It's not clear what it is."

After listening to Su Xiao's explanation, Pain nodded.

Although Nagato, who controls the Pain, knows how to seal the tailed beast, there are various ways to seal the tailed beast in each Ninja village. It has long been rumored that the power of a tail is very unstable. As for Su Xiao swallowing the tailed beast Chakra, Nagato didn't think about it, and he don't care about it.

"Forget it, one tail can be recovered in the body of Gedō Mazō Sealing Statue, as long as it is caught, maybe the sand ninja village has strengthened the seal of one tail."

Su Xiao helped the Akatsuki organization to catch a tail. If Pain kept asking questions, it would be unreasonable.

The task is only Jinchuriki power, who stipulates that it is not to absorb the tailed beast Chakra? Moreover, there are other people in the Akatsuki organization who absorb the tailed beast Chakra, such as Kisame.

Now Akatsuki's purpose is to seal a tail into the Gedō Mazō Sealing Statue. For each tailed beast sealed, one of the Gedō Mazō Sealing Statue's eyes will be opened, and Gedō Mazō has nine eyes in total.

The Gedō Mazō Sealing Statue is like the shell of the ten tails. After collecting all the nine tailed beasts, the ten tails will be resurrected. To be precise, the nine tails are stripped from the ten tails.

And the true face of the ten tails is the divine tree, which is the origin of chakra.

If Su Xiao can swallow the ten tails, then the level of Azure Steel Shadow will be greatly improved. Although this idea is very tempting, it can only be thought about.

The seal starts at the end, and the work takes three days.

Su Xiao is actually making soy sauce, the ring in his hand is the 'main body', he only needs to stand.

Su Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, and could see that other people around were also bored, but no one could move.

The opposite Hidan winked and seemed to be restless for a moment, while Deidara tilted his neck, looking like he would drop his Gedō Mazō fingers at any time.

kakuzu, Sasori , Itachi, Zetsu, Pain and the others were like old monks who had entered into meditation, their eyes closed and motionless.

Kisame is a little helpless, standing so stupidly can be said to be boring.

"Hey, hey, this is too boring."

The lively Hidan brother couldn't bear it any longer and spoke first.

"Just shut up."

Pain glanced at Hidan, and Hidan shut up angrily.

The most dashing person present was our Bobo. Bobo looked at Itachi for a while, and then Hidan, who was about to 'suffocate'.

After wandering around for a while, Boubo Wang started to observe Gaara. With Su Xiao around, the other members of Akatsuki would not say anything.

An hour later, Boubo Wang also became bored, and began to exchange glances with Hidan on his giant finger, as if he wanted to communicate with HIdan.

After Hidan saw Boubowang's gaze, he seemed to have discovered a new continent. He finally found a way to relieve his boredom. The two live treasures didn't know how to communicate. Kisame who arrived at this scene was trying not to laugh out loud.

Su Xiao didn't care about Boubo Wang who was teasing Hidan. That's right, Boubo Wang was just teasing Hidan.

Opening the skill list, Su Xiao checked Azure Steel Shadow, who was already at Lv.20, and the attributes of Azure Steel Shadow had changed greatly.
