Chapter 232: A Giant Problem

Chapter 232: A Giant Problem

Three days pass in the blink of an eye,

On the night of the full moon,

Whoosh

Izuna flickers out of his house as the full moonlight casts its serene brilliance on the village.

'The moon seems to be a bit bigger today.'

Izuna raises his head and takes a glance at the moon.

"It's about time to meet with the informant."

He flickers towards the pond as various thoughts pop in his mind.

'After spending four days in this village, I am unable to solve the mystery of this village.

The more I ravel about this village, the more mysterious it becomes. Given the nature of this village, so far I can't trust anything here.'

Izuna takes out the intel scroll from his pocket.

'This scroll seems to be nothing more than a farce, but I am curious to learn about the nature of this village. Still, I will take some precautionary measures."

Izuna closes his eyes and stretches his right hands in front of him.

"Shinra Bansh"

Five dense purple orbs manifest in his palm.

Swoosh

He wills the orbs to float behind him.

'To a certain extent these orbs are infused with an extent of my will; so, they can operate autonomously to protect me.'

Whoosh

Izuna hides his presence as he flickers towards the designated location.

-----------

Swish swish

Multiple paper butterflies gather on top of a house in the village. The butterfly morphs into Konan.

She takes out a scroll from her pocket.

'It's about time to meet with the informant.'

Whoosh

The butterflies disperse as Konan disappears from her place.

------------

Hmm

Izuna appears near the pond marked on the map. Multiple glaze snow lilies are floating in the pond as they shine with a fitful silvery hue.

'The passage is beneath this lake.'

Swish. Swish

He makes some One-hand signs.

'Water Release: Air Water Bubble'

Izuna forms a water bubble around his body as he dives into the pond.

Swirl

The water swirls around him as he propels forward.

'This pond is quite large than I expected. It is more of a lake than a pond.'

Izuna continues to travel across the pond as he surveys the pond. After diving deeper for a while, a small water passage appears in front of him.

'This must be it.'

Whoosh

The water-air bubble wraps around his body as he enters the passage.

Haah

Izuna exits from the other end of the passage in yet another pond.

Swoosh

A deep, enchanting fragrance greets him.

Hmm

'These are'

Whoosh

He jumps out of the water as various glaze snow lilies are floating in the pond.

"No something is different about them."

Izuna scrutinizes them.

'The number of petals differs from the previous ones. There were 20 petals in the previous lily, whereas this has 23 petals. Also, there is a pink hue on their petal tips compared to the other lilies.'

Izuna picks up the lily as he inspects it curiously.

'Its fragrance differs greatly from the previous flower.'

"Sharingan!"

He activates his Sharingan to look for the pollens of the lily.

"Hmm No pollens!! That's quite surprising."

Swoosh

Izuna stores the lily in his storage scroll and walks deeper into the passage.

------------

After half an hour,

"What's going on? I have yet to arrive at the marked location."

Izuna's expression turns ugly as he warily looks around.

"Is this some sort of genjutsu? I feel like I am moving in circles."

He activates his Mangekyo Sharingan and inspects his chakra flow.

"My chakra flow is normal. I can't see any disruption in my chakra. Then what else could it be?"

Swish swish

Izuna makes some hand signs.

'Light Release: Light Sabre'

He creates a light saber.

Buzz sizzle

Izuna carves a symbol on the wall of the passage as he moves forward.

"At least this way, I won't move in circles. Time to move forward."

Half an hour later,

Whoosh

He reappears at the same place as the symbol appears in his vision.

"Hmm so I am moving in circles."

Izuna closes his eyes as he tries to sense the surrounding space.

'I will just teleport back to the village.'

"It's odd. I can't sense my seals. There seems to be a powerful barrier distorting my sense of time and space."

He opens his eyes and takes a deep breath.

'I don't know what sort of trouble I have invoked, but I don't have time to waste here.'

Izuna stretches his arm and wills the Shinra Bansh orb.

Whoosh whirl

The orb changes slightly as a small ring appears around it.

Izuna points it towards the ceiling of the passage.

**BOOOMM**

The orb drills a hole through the ceiling.

Whoosh

Izuna jumps out of the hole.

**ROOOAARRR**

An intense scram of agony greets him as the deafening roar rings in his ears.

Rumble rumble

The ground beneath Izuna trembles and he loses his balance.

Shoom

Izuna infuses some chakra in his feet and sticks to the wall.

"What the hell?! What's going on?"

Izuna activates his Mangekyo Sharingan as he inspects the walls of the passage.

Slosh slosh

The rock walls of the passage transform into flesh as various veins appear on them.

Thump Thump Thump

A loud heartbeat echoes in the surrounding.

Splash

A rapid stream of blood flows through the body of the giant creature.

Whoosh

Izuna jumps and hangs on the ceiling as he avoids the gust of blood.

Slosh

The hole in the wall regenerates quickly as the wound closes.

"This this looks like a blood circulatory system of some kind of giant creature."

ROOOAARR

Another roar echoes in the surrounding. Izuna closes his ears as the roar disrupts his senses, leaving him dizzy.

"What a powerful sound-based attack? This roar was infused with an enormous amount of chakra. I have to quickly get out of this place?"

Swoosh swoosh

Izuna directs his Shinra Bansh orbs towards the inner walls of the creature as he creates one hole after another in the creature's body.

ROOOARR

The creature screams in agony as its inner blood vessels explode one after another.

Slosh Slosh

The blood vessels regenerate rapidly as Izuna jumps quickly out of the body of the beast.

Whoosh

He breaks through the outer shell of the beast and lands on top of its body.

Rumble Rumble

The giant monster shakes its body rapidly to ease the pain.

Hmm

Izuna inspects the outer shell of the beast.

"This shell is made of the mountain rock. Let me take a clear look at it."

Whoosh

Izuna flies in the air. After reaching enough altitude, he takes a clear look at the form of the beast.

"Holy Shit! This is a giant mountain Torterra."

Izuna levitates in the air as the giant creature appears in his vision.

Rumble Rumble

Dust and debris rise in the air as the giant creature slowly stands up.

There is a giant tree on the back of the creature and there are three stony extensions in the shape of mountain peaks on the creature's stony shell.

The creature has large red beady eyes with black rims around them. The mouth of the creature is jagged, giving it an appearance of a giant turtle. Its legs are thick and have four toes in the shape of jagged stones.

ROAARRR

The creature releases another powerful roar as it searches for the source of its suffering.

Rumble Rumble

It lifts its rocky neck and notices Izuna floating in the air.

ROAR

Anger blazes in its eyes as it notices the purple orbs floating being Izuna.

Shoom

The creature opens its mouth as it gathers large amounts of chakra in its mouth. Large numbers of red and dark blue chakra orbs gather around its mouth as it compresses them into a small orb.

"Crap! It is about to fire a tailed-beast bomb."

Whoosh

Izuna directs his Shinra Bansh orbs to stop the beam.

**BOOOOOMMM**

The orbs and the tailed beast collide with each other as a giant explosion rises in the air.

BOOOM

Shockwaves travel through the air as it hurls Izuna into the sky.

Whoosh Shoom

Izuna topples in the sky as he continues to gain altitude.

"Susanoo"

Giant silver humanoid constructs with golden bracers and shoulder pads form around Izuna and he regains balance.

Whoosh

The Susanoo opens its wings, and it flies towards the giant turtle-like creature.

BOOM

The giant turtle is pushed back by the explosion and it slams into a nearby mountain.

Swoosh

Izuna reappears in front of the creature as he maintains a safe distance from the creature.

"I don't know if you can understand me or not, but I need to know where are the residents of the Shangri-La village."

'Kimimaro is still in the village. I can't abandon him after coming this far.'

ROAR

The creature angrily roars at Izuna as its eyes turn a darker shade of red.

Rumble Rumble

The ground trembles as the creature charges towards Izuna.

"Fine! I will search for them myself."

The Susanoo unsheathes its Katana as it points it towards the charging beast.

"Reality Slash"
