In terms of absolute strength, the power of Jūgo after the full release of the curse seal is undoubtedly much stronger than Sasuke at present. Even the Raikage cannot completely resist the strongest attack, and can only rely on the lightning armor to withstand Jūgo's full force.
But the outcome of a battle is not determined in this way. There are too many influencing factors. At least in this open area, when Sasuke's speed advantage is fully utilized, Jūgo is like an enraged beast. Apart from chasing him frantically, he can no longer find a suitable way to deal with it.
Although he had the advantage, Sasuke did not yet think of a quick victory and completely defeating Jūgo.
"It should be a curse seal. This fighting posture is very similar to the curse seal on my body, which can bring power to people but disrupt their will. However, the way to use the curse seal flexibly like this..."
In order to test the limit of Jūgo's use of the curse seal, Sasuke slowed down the pace appropriately and watched Jūgo's every performance in the battle very seriously.
"It greatly increases chakra, and its recovery ability is also quite impressive. The most rare thing is that it can be partially cursed in conjunction with combat instincts. It is truly a rare secret technique!"
The advantages are obvious, but the disadvantages are also very frightening. The completely irrational crazy mode is not a good choice for Sasuke. He has seen the fighting power of Hatake Kakashi, Tenzo and Mizuki, especially the battle between Mizuki and Orochimaru, which made Sasuke clearly realize how terrible it is when the power that cannot be used freely is out of control. Even Mizuki, who Sasuke cannot even touch the limit of, attaches great importance to palm control, so he understands the attitude of a true master towards uncontrollable power.
However, Sasuke was unwilling to give up the opportunity to quickly increase his strength.
As Jūgo's curse became deeper and deeper, Sasuke also felt the evil-sealing seal on his neck tremble, and the burning and stinging sensation became more and more intense, making Sasuke more and more certain that the opponent was similar to himself and also possessed similar cursed power.
Sasuke realized that he had something good that could enhance his strength, so he decided to study the curse seal that had been sealed for a long time, even though there were some hidden dangers that could be avoided.
Although it has not been confirmed, it can be speculated that Mr. Mizuki is definitely not unfamiliar with this thing. He had planned to learn more about it before, but missed it due to various reasons. If he was promoted to a senior ninja, he should have the right to know some of the truth!
The battle between Sasuke and Chougo is a battle between speed and strength. Now it seems that speed is more advantageous. Strength still has its limitations before it reaches the level of using force to defeat skill and using force to defeat skill.
After a long period of attack without success and exhausted, Jūgo slammed his keratinized arms into the ground. The enormous force caused a cloud of rubble to fly, and the rubble in the sky forced Sasuke to retreat continuously.
The powerful explosive force of the earthquake fire was indeed impressive, but it only caused Sasuke some minor skin injuries and did not even have the ability to restrict his movements.
Amid the gravel and dust, Sasuke did not miss the opportunity. When he looked up, he saw a row of Chidori Senbon scattered around. A few dull sounds were heard, and it seemed that Chougo, who had poor vision, was hit.
"Your methods are too monotonous. If you don't have any more tricks, you'll die!"
Sasuke's answer was a violent slap from an outstretched arm.
"I almost forgot, you don't understand anything!"
Sasuke calmly dodged the explosive attack and stabbed his Chidori Blade straight through the keratinized giant hand, then turned it suddenly, cutting off a large piece of bloody flesh.
No matter how powerful he is or how much he looks like a demon, he is just a flesh and blood body, and cannot compare with the sharp blade blessed by the Lightning Release Chidori.
Being cursed did not mean that he could not feel pain. The trauma to his body made Jūgo even more crazy. His arms quickly expanded like two giant maces, sweeping away the few remaining bushes around him.
"The final madness!"
Sasuke dodged confidently. The enemy was indeed very strong. The tactic of draining the opponent's strength and slowly bleeding him seemed to have failed. The enemy's ability to sustain a sustained battle was far beyond imagination.
Fortunately, everything is almost over, and the tense fight is coming to an end.
Suddenly, Sasuke's face froze and a pungent smell of blood came from not far away.
"Is there anyone nearby?"
The sky was almost completely dark. At this time, with rumors of a murderer rampant, anyone who would come to a place like this couldn't be a good person.
What is even more worrying is that the crazy Shigeo also sensed the change not far away, and then ran in that direction without hesitation.
Was he running for his life, or were there enemy companions in that direction? Sasuke was a little hesitant, but after thinking for a moment, he still followed. At the same time, the sharp blade kept hitting the fleeing Chougo, but Chougo seemed to have already identified his target and ignored Sasuke's harassment.
After a while, the two of them came to a small valley nestled in the mountains and beside a river. Not far away by the lake, several civilians dressed as woodcutters were lying on the ground in a mess.
The victims are still alive, but they are just one step away from death.
Sasuke looked around vigilantly, but found no trace of other people. The temporarily ignored Jūgo stretched out his arm impatiently, turned it into a soft tentacle, and rolled up a wounded person on the ground. A strange sound of eating was heard, and the living civilian was devoured in an instant. Jūgo, who was already covered in wounds, recovered rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. In Sasuke's stunned look, the unscathed Jūgo turned to Sasuke again, and his crazy eyes revealed his resentment that Sasuke must be killed.
"Eating people and then restoring their bodies, no wonder they are called murderous ghosts."
The secret technique produced by the ultimate transformation of Jugo's curse - Re-cell Attraction, is a secret technique that can absorb the flesh and cells of others, transform them into one's own cells, and quickly recover injuries and chakra. As long as there are materials, it can become an invincible killing machine on the battlefield. Unless it is directly killed with extremely strong power, a protracted war or a war of attrition is completely meaningless to it.
"I see. This is an opponent worthy of fighting. I didn't expect that there would be a monster like you in the ninja world."
Sasuke regrouped and turned his blade to block. Then, a kick that was too big came at him. The enormous force knocked Sasuke away and he somersaulted several times on the lake before he managed to stand firm.
"As expected, he has companions and can hide his tracks. This is not something that an irrational killer can do. Moreover, he has brought so many injured people here to help the killer recover from his injuries. This is really deliberate!"
