Chapter 84:

Seeing Iwa taking actions, Akira retreated quickly to avoid being noticed by them

All the Iwa ninjas in the camp gathered and formed defensive formation quickly. These Iwa ninjas are well-trained and are indeed elite troops. Meanwhile ten other ninja followed Kisseki and went to the underground cave where Kato was hidden.

Akira retreated and hid his breath, while observing the movements of Kisseki and others.

Kisseki then took his surbodinate and hurried towards the underground cave and Akira tailed them from far behind, keeping his distance and remain very vigilant.

The scenery on both sides passed quickly and under Kisseki's leadership, they were getting closer and closer to Kato Dan location. Even now Kato Dan was still under the surveillance of Akira shadow clone and he was unaware of the approaching danger he will face while preparing to use his spirit transfomation jutsu.

Dan first have to determine the safety of the cave environment, so that he can carefully used the spirit transfomation jutsu. As Akira had deduced, after using the spirit transfomation jutsu was used, his body cannot move and will vulnarable. This is the biggest weakness of the spirit transfomation jutsu.

But otherwise, this jutsu is still very strong.

That's why Dan carefully observed the surrounding environment and only after he was sure that he was safe did he use the jutsu

"Spirit transfomation jutsu!"

Dan spirit separated from his body and his spirit appeared. The spirit is transparent, but a faint white mass could still be vaguely recognized.

After using the spirit transfomation jutsu, Dan's spirit has become his strongest weapon, capable of killing enemies regardless of distance. Of course, the enemy can also see the spirit. For example, the original story Choza once communicated with Dan when he use spirit transformation jutsu.

After using spirit transfomation jutsu, Dan can freely manipulate his spirit and emerge from the hole in the ground, emitting a faint white light and illuminating the surrounding area.

"My body should be safe hiding in the cave. Next, as long as I can control my spirit problem then everything will be fine. I wonder where Uchiha Akira went. If I find his trace, I can take the opportunity to..." Dan's eyes flashed with a strong murderous intent.

Dan's dissatisfaction and hostility toward Akira gradually accumulate and now he has a murderous heart toward Akira.

Suddenly he noticed several strong chakras approaching here rapidly and there were still a lot of them, which made him suddenly alert.

"It's Iwa ninja, how come there are so many Iwa ninjas here? Damn it! Are these Iwa ninja here for me?" Dan was alert and soon found that Iwa ninjas was approaching his position. Dan felt that something was wrong.

The Iwa ninjas soon noticed the existence of Kato Dan, especially Kisseki. He was even more stunned and cautious: "It really is Kato Dan and his spirit transformation jutsu! Everyone, be careful, Kato Dan's spirit transformation jutsu is very strong. Normal genjutsu, ninjutsu and taijutsu have no effect on him, unless it's a fuinjutsu or ninjutsu that can directly attack the soul."

Kisseki is very vigilant, Dan has already used spirit transfomation jutsu, making this situation very difficult and dangerous.

When Dan saw the sudden attack from Iwa ninja, he acted immediately without saying a word. His spirit transform into a flash of white light, directly start his offence and quickly reached in front of a Iwa ninja as he attacked directly.

"Earth style, mud wall jutsui!" The Iwa ninja was taken aback, but he quickly handsealed, intending to use the mud wall to resist.

But the mud wall had no effect on the spirit transfomation jutsu and Dan's body went through the mud wall and attacked him! Blood splash from thr Iwa ninja body as his body fell down softly.

"All ordinary ninjutsu won't work on him! Everyone remain calm!" Kisseki's frustrated voice came. Of course he knew that spirit transfomation jutsu is going to be tricky, so he repeatedly give instructions to calm down his surbodinate.

Kisseki and the other Iwa ninjas felt fear facing the spirit transfomation jutsu, but Kato is like a slippery fish and in a blink of an eye he killed another Iwa ninja, which made Iwa ninja feel the pressure of heart palpitations.

"Too naive, how can you be my opponent when I am in spirit transformed state?" Dan said in a proud tone, but he does have the capital to be proud.

Dan, who was in the state of spirit transformation, was not even afraid peak level jonin. Therefore he is not afraid of the Iwa ninja in front of him.

"Kato Dan, don't underestimate us, even if we cannot do anything when you are in the spirit transformed state, but we can stilp imprison you!" After all, Kisseki is also a peak level jonin, so he quickly calmed down and ordered the surrounding Iwa ninja: "Prepare the Four Violet Flame Formation!"

Four Violet Flame Formation!

Akira heard the order of four Violet flame formations in the distance and immediately understood. Four Violet Flame Formation is also a kind of cooperation barrier ninjutsu that appeared in the original story. The four Violet flame formation need to be released at the same time by four people to generate a violet translucent wall, which will ignite all objects on contact.

(Wiki: A team of four stands in a square formation and then performs this technique, erecting a solid barrier between them. The barrier is made of purple flames, which will instantly engulf those who come into contact with it, thus preventing anyone from entering or leaving the area. Because the barrier relies on all four users to maintain, attacking any one of them can bring down the barrier.)

The Four Violet Flame Formation can trap Kato Dan, which is also a way to deal with him.

Sure enough, Dan's expression changed and he became a little nervous.

"These Iwa ninjas are smart, they know how to use barrier ninjutsu to deal with Kato Dan. Well, the two sides should be in deadlocked. I will find Kato Dan's body first." Akira glanced at Kato Dan who was fighting the Iwa ninjas. He then quietly go around to the back of the battlefield and headed to the underground cave alone.

As long as Akira can find the main body of Kato Dan, Dan is as good as dead!

Taking advantage of Dan and the Iwa ninjas fighting, Akira quietly enter the underground cave.

The underground cave is surprisingly big, with twists and turns inside, extending in all directions, like a spider web, no wonder Dan chose this place as a hiding place.

Akira directly used shadow clone jutsu and sent the shadow clones to the various forks to look for Dans body and finally found it.

"Found it!" Akira looked overjoyed, one of the shadow clones had already told him the information and Akira finally found the body of Dan.

Finding the body of Dan, Akira quickly rushed to the fork cave where the shadow clone was located.

As soon as he entered the cave, Akira really saw a man lying on the ground with his eyes closed, as if he was asleep, it is Dan body.

Dan's body was finally found by Akira!

Spirit transfomation jutsu biggest weakness was just like Akira had deduced!
