Chapter 397 An Agreement is Reached, Ishikawa Summer Arrives
"What...what did you just do to me?"
A moment later, Xia Ri suddenly took a step back, her pretty face frosty as she stared at Shi Chuan, her eyes flashing with purple light as she asked in surprise.
Yes, she was quite certain that she hadn't been under any illusion spells!
But the other party's eye technique just now clearly showed signs of trying to use illusion magic on her. What exactly is going on?
"Uh, don't be so ambiguous, Summer Auntie." Ishikawa couldn't help but curl his lip as he looked at Summer, who was shaking with excitement and seemed to have been bullied. "Although you're well-maintained and still considered a beauty, your son is about my age, so stop playing the victim here..."
"You're not qualified to challenge my weaknesses right now!"
"You brat, you're the old lady here!!" Xia Ri was furious upon hearing this and immediately formed hand seals, "Peacock Mystic Art: Beast."
With a whoosh, a solidified purple behemoth appeared above Xia Ri's head and pounced on Ishikawa, its momentum as powerful as a real, terrifying beast.
This time, however, Ishikawa remained unmoved, arms crossed, as still as a mountain!
The next instant, just as the chakra behemoth was half an inch away from Ishikawa and Natsumi was about to withdraw her attack with a look of surprise, a scarlet chakra tail suddenly appeared behind Ishikawa, turning into a blur and slapping the behemoth away with a bang, scattering it.
"What?! That kind of chakra is..."
Seeing this, Xia Ri's face paled, and she instinctively said something, but before she could think further, she saw Ishikawa opposite her suddenly form a hand seal and a smile appear on his lips, "Peacock Mystic Technique - Beast..."
"No, impossible!!"
Summer blurted out, dumbfounded. How could Ishikawa use their Hoshigakure's secret ninjutsu?
The next second, Xia Ri's pupils contracted as she saw the crimson chakra behind Ishikawa rapidly reforming into a gigantic tanuki beast, baring its teeth and displaying a ferocious expression...
"This, this, this..."
"What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean'? I only informed you that 'Star' and the Peacock Mystic Art were part of the deal, I never said I needed your consent!" Ishikawa scoffed coldly. "I did this to tell you that your agreement or not doesn't affect my decision."
Only the strong are qualified to sit at the negotiating table; the weak are only fit to accept their fate!
Ishikawa wouldn't compromise with Natsumi just because of Konoha; he was just afraid of trouble, not that he was afraid of trouble.
"So that's how it is. You...you were just stealing the Peacock Technique from my brain?" Taking a deep breath, Xia Ri quickly understood the situation, her expression changed drastically, and her voice became firm.
Only this possibility could explain how the other party could have mastered the secret ninjutsu of Hoshigakure so quickly. But what's with the chakra on this guy's body?
"Looks like you're not too stupid. Just a heads-up, I also know the location of 'Star,' so you'd better not do anything dangerous." Ishikawa chuckled, and the chakra tanuki behind him quickly returned to the fluid.
It seems he managed to fool his opponent this time by using Shukaku's chakra!
Yes, that's right. Ishikawa merely packaged and copied the memories about the Peacock Technique, and the pupil seal did not have the ability to fully integrate them.
"Damn it, you bastard!!" Xia Ri, whose mind was in turmoil, didn't notice the details and was only filled with resentment and regret.
In the current situation, only by killing the opponent can we protect "Star" and the Peacock Magic.
But she has absolutely no confidence in defeating Ishikawa right now, which is kind of awkward...
“If you agree to cooperate now, I can help you treat the aftereffects of radiation. You are still young and have plenty of time to repair the Star Ninja Village and reunite with your son. This may be your last chance!” Seeing the hesitant Natsumi Ishikawa, he made a decisive statement and walked directly into the cave next to him without paying any attention to the other party.
He has done everything he could; he doesn't care if the other party doesn't care about his dignity!
Anyway, he's definitely got "Star" in the bag!!
"Wait." Seeing Ishikawa heading straight for the location where the "star" was hidden, Natsumi finally made up her mind with a resolute look in her eyes. "I agree, but you have to promise to cure me and all the children in the village of radiation sickness."
If they could exchange "stars" and the Peacock Magic for the village's future, then it would be worthwhile for them.
Her very existence is to stop the Star Ninja Village from continuing its "Star" training, which does not conflict with her goals!
Ishikawa paused, then turned slightly to the side, his gaze filled with a sigh. "A very wise choice, Fourth Hoshikage-sama..."
Radiation sickness is nothing. Even with the all-powerful doorknob as a backup, it can be easily cured by Karin's physical healing abilities.
After all, even the Fifth Hokage Tsunade in the original storyline couldn't cure the aftereffects of Shizune, so there's no reason why the healer Karin couldn't!
"Ahem... I'm not the Fourth Hokage anymore..." Natsumi coughed and chuckled awkwardly when she heard Ishikawa teasing her. As she spoke, she formed hand seals and her chakra erupted once more, "Peacock Mystic Technique: Shift."
With a loud bang, the small hill in front was moved aside by Xia Ri, revealing the dazzling "star" inside.
"So, what are you going to do now? Although I don't agree with Akahoshi's actions, he restarted the 'Star' training for the sake of Hoshigakure, so it's impossible for him to change his mind and support me becoming the Star Shadow."
Seeing Ishikawa take out the "star" and examine it in his hand, Natsumi couldn't help but ask curiously.
As for killing Akahoshi? Sorry, she doesn't approve of such a self-destructive approach!
"How to do it? It's very simple, this is all you need." Ishikawa raised the "Star" in his hand and said, his pupils rapidly forming a seal, transforming into a spirit that swiftly entered Natsumi's body.
"You actually entered my body! What are you going to do? Didn't we already agree to cooperate?!" In her sea of consciousness, Xia Ri cried out in panic as she looked at Ishikawa's spirit body.
This was the first time she had ever encountered such a soul-binding technique, so how could she not be flustered and at a loss!
"Don't worry, I'm just borrowing your body for a bit. By the way, I'll also let you see Akahoshi's true colors..." Ishikawa waved his hand casually, and as he spoke, he instantly unleashed his control over Natsumi's body.
At the same moment, Shukaku also awoke from its original form in Ishikawa, looking at the meteorite in its hand with curiosity, "What is this? What a special power!"
"Shukaku, keep an eye on my body." Ishikawa didn't explain and directly snatched the meteorite "Star," saying that his hands formed a hand seal and his eyes shone with purple light, "Peacock Mystic Technique - Wings..."
Instantly, purple chakra wings appeared behind Natsumi, who was controlled by Ishikawa. Thanks to Natsumi's own body, Ishikawa easily used her ninjutsu to take off.
"Looks like there's going to be a good show!" Seeing Ishikawa control someone else to fly away, the bored Shukaku's eyes lit up and he grinned as he chased after him.
Meanwhile, Ishikawa, using his flight advantage and spiritual perception, quickly locked onto his target, Naoki Ninja Village.
"Akahoshi, you get out here! You murderer of the Third Hoshikage! I, Natsumi, will avenge the Third Hoshikage and punish evil today!!"
A few minutes later, a furious shout suddenly rang out in mid-air, shocking everyone present.
