Chapter 269 : Momonosuke

The entire island shook and the tremble left everyone stunned. But that wasn't enough as the earth-shattering sound of the explosion which followed was even more frightening. 

Those who were inside only heard the sound but only those who were outside to see the explosion with their own eyes could experience this horrible explosion. 

It was like an atomic bomb exploding in the neighbourhood, making everyone gobsmacked and look at the explosion with wide eyes. 

It looked like a sun suddenly appeared in front of them, like the birth of a new sun. Many people who were outside had no idea how they were even standing there alive after seeing that wall of fire on the other side of the island. 

But some could tell, there was an invisible barrier which stopped that explosion from reaching them. 

Kirito stood just a little away from the giant barrier, using his Nine Tail Chakra alongside his clones to keep up the barrier. The explosion was much stronger than he anticipated. 

It wasn't hard to put that atomic seal inside that giant slime, but keeping this barrier up was much harder. 

With gritting his teeth, he kept up the barrier so that the explosion didn't reach the ice side of the island. 

The Uzumaki barrier technique which Kirito learned was not exactly meant to stop this kind of large-scale attacks. He learns that first-hand when he fought with Raikage last time. He back then ran out of all of his chakra, which cost him dearly that day. 

But thanks to the Nine Tail Chakra, this was much better.

Kirito clone which he found Monet was having a hard time locating her. It was much harder than he expected to find that bird woman. 

No haki or chakra to track her and no footprint either, she just flies around. 

While looking around the place, Kirito stumbles upon a garbage dumb, or at least that is what he thought this place was. Tons of broken stuff and garbage everywhere. 

Sighing, the clone can't help but want to stop this pointless mission given to him by the main and just disappear with a puff of smoke. But before doing that, he has to look around a little to show for himself that at least he tried. 

Just when he was about to get out of his dumb, he heard a voice. 

'Something or someone is here' Clone muttered as he heard the sound of ruffling. He tenses up, looking around with his Observation Haki for anyone. 

Operation Haki is actually never about long-distance sensing, this was mostly used when combat. Chakra sensing is more adaptable for locating others from a long distance. 

So here he can easily sense anyone around him.

Clone quickly trace down a small figure around in the shadow. This was a snake-like figure. 

"Come out, I know that you are here," Clone said with a stern stone. 

"Who are you ?" came a child-like voice, making the clone stunned for a second. His earlier tense muscle relaxes a little. That sound was exactly like a kid. He didn't want to hurt the kid, but with his observation Haki, he was sure that this person had the body of a snake, not a human. 

But again this world has zoan-type devil fruits. It's totally possible for that child to eat that fruit after all. 

"I am Namikaze Kirito. A Shinobi." Clone said as he pinpointed where the sound came from. 

"A Ninja, are you from Wano ?" The child's voice trembles, The clone can't say why but the name Wano came up so it has to be something with that place. Maybe the child is from there. 

"No, I am not. I am from Konoha. However, I did meet a samurai just a few hours ago. His name was Kinemon. He was looking for his son. 

Momonosuke. 

Are you him ?" Clone suddenly remember this little bit of information and asked, the possibility of that happening was extremely high. 

"You know Kinemon ?" this time the sound was a little more cheerful as the figure in the snake came out of the shadow. 

Clone saw a pink snake or a pink miniature eastern dragon. Or at least that is what he believed and what he saw. 

"Yes, though only for a few minutes at best but you can say that we are friends. So I'll take that you are Momonosuke." Clone asked. 

"Yes."

"I see, well I was looking for someone else entirely but now that I have found you then I should take you to Kinemon. We are leaving this island soon. I rather not delay more if possible.

Why you are here? I will take it that you are stuck here." Clone asked as he observed the surrounding area. There was no escape from here besides flying or climbing from that wall. '

He can do that easily, but Momonosuke can't." 

"How you know," Momonosuke asked surprised.

"It's not hard to figure that out if we just observe the area. I am a Shinobi after all." Clone said with a smile.

"So can you turn back? I presume that you had eaten a Zoan-type devil fruit. Do you know how to turn back?" Kirito asked with a raise of his eyebrows. 

"Devil Fruit, what's that? Can I turn back into a human again." the pink dragon asked with confusion.

'Sigh, troublesome...' Kirito just sighed internally. 

Then he heard a sound of stomach rumbling coming from Momonosuke. 

The kid was in denial that he was hungry. Kirito just took out a scroll and laid it on the ground.

"Here eat something, you will need it when we get out of here," Kirito said as he placed his hand on the open scroll and with a puff of smoke came out many different types of food from that scroll.
