Chapter 1004: Darkness Maneuver Technique vs. Sun Fist!
Chapter 1004: Darkness Maneuver Technique vs. Sun Fist!
In contrast to the clash of powers between Yecheng's main body and Hashirama Senju, the battle between Yecheng's second Wood Clone and Tobirama Senju was a pure contest of speed and technique.
The two, utilizing their Space-Time Ninjutsu, moved like streaks of light, constantly colliding and separating, fighting from the ground to the air and back again.
Apart from the Flying Thunder God Technique and knife skills, Tobirama Senju was also adept at Water Style Ninjutsu. However, he was well aware that in a fight against Yecheng, who also possessed Space-Time Ninjutsu, regular ninjutsu was far too slow and would only expose his weaknesses without much practical use.
"It's unbelievable. I never imagined that this young man not only mastered Wood Style and Sage Mode but also Space-Time Ninjutsu.
And it's not just the Flying Thunder God Technique learned from the Hokage Scrolls; it seems he developed his own Space-Time Ninjutsu."
Tobirama Senju was growing more astonished as the fight progressed. Despite initially overestimating Yecheng to the best of his ability, he only realized at the very end that he had underestimated his opponent. The young Senju clan member before him not only resembled a younger Hashirama Senju but was like a combination of Hashirama and his brother, Tobirama.
Defeating an opponent skilled in Space-Time Ninjutsu was no easy feat. If Water Style Ninjutsu was unsuitable, Tobirama Senju quickly thought of another technique he had developed.
Up until now, Yecheng had demonstrated exceptional prowess in taijutsu, ninjutsu, and knife skills, but he seemed to have refrained from using genjutsu.
"Genjutsu: Darkness Maneuver Technique!"
As Yecheng's eyes were enveloped in a thick shadow, his vision was instantly obscured, and the surroundings plunged into pitch darkness.
The Darkness Maneuver Technique, developed by Tobirama Senju, was designed to counter the Uchiha clan's Sharingan genjutsu. Its straightforward and brutal effect was to deprive the opponent of their sight, plunging them into an endless abyss of darkness.
The world of the Hokage had its fair share of genius ninjas, but in Yecheng's eyes, the only one who truly deserved the title of "genius" was the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.
Techniques like Edo Tensei, Flying Thunder God Technique, Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, Multiplicative Detonator Seal Technique, and Darkness Maneuver Technique were all developed by Tobirama Senju, creating them from scratch.
Minato, known as a genius, spent three years developing the A-rank Rasengan. Even his signature Flying Thunder God Technique was an improvement based on Tobirama Senju's Flying Thunder God.
In terms of innate talent, Minato couldn't hold a candle to Tobirama Senju.
Seeing Yecheng, deprived of his vision, standing in place, Tobirama Senju looked at the hand seals he had formed and his expression turned grim. "Although your vision has been taken by my genjutsu, you should still be able to move. Quickly use your Space-Time Ninjutsu to escape from there.
The technique I'm about to use is extremely dangerous. Once it's activated, even with your Space-Time Ninjutsu, you might be blown to smithereens!"
Noticing his intention to use the Multiplicative Detonator Seal Technique, Tobirama Senju quickly warned Yecheng, who was currently engulfed in darkness.
As a forbidden technique used in conjunction with Edo Tensei, Tobirama Senju never imagined that one day, he would become the vessel for the Detonator Seal himself.
The Multiplicative Detonator Seal Technique involved detonating Detonator Seals, which would then summon more Detonator Seals, causing a series of concentrated explosions until the opponent was reduced to ashes.
In the past, Tobirama Senju had used this technique to attach Detonator Seals to Edo Tensei ninjas, inflicting devastating damage on his opponents.
The immortal body of Edo Tensei was indeed invincible, and even if it was blown to pieces, it would gradually recover over time.
When he saw the first explosive tag attached to his body, Tobirama Senju's expression turned grim.
Tobirama, now an Edo Tensei with an immortal body, possessed the Flying Thunder God Technique, a space-time ninjutsu. Could any enemy he targeted escape his relentless pursuit and bombardment?
"Damn it, it's too late!"
With explosive tags already on his body, Tobirama used the Flying Thunder God Technique to appear before Yecheng in an instant.
However, just as he was about to activate the Multiplicative Detonator Technique to detonate the tags, Yecheng, whose eyes were completely blacked out, suddenly revealed a faint smile and placed his hands on his temples.
A blinding flash of light burst forth, causing Tobirama to wince and close his eyes momentarily.
Although his vision was briefly obstructed, it didn't hinder Tobirama from activating the Multiplicative Detonator Technique.
As the explosive tags on his body ignited and exploded, more tags were summoned, creating an endless chain reaction like a set of nesting dolls. The entire area erupted in a continuous series of explosions!
The concentrated blasts went on for several minutes, far more intense than the scattered and wide-ranging explosions of Obito's six trillion explosive tags. Although Tobirama's concentrated blasts had a smaller range, their power was evidently greater!
When the dust finally settled, everything around them had been reduced to rubble, leaving only a large crater hundreds of meters wide on the ground.
The dust in the air gradually assembled like a puzzle, revealing Tobirama's head.
Although his Edo Tensei body had been blown to bits, he could slowly recover. However, upon seeing that Yecheng was no longer there, Tobirama couldn't help but feel a sense of foreboding.
Not a single mistake, a shot, a hit, and a look!
"Good thing this was just his Wood Clone..."
"Boom—Boom—Boom—Boom!"
Before Tobirama could finish his sentence, golden chains suddenly shot out from the ground, binding the incompletely restored Edo Tensei body tightly.
The half-destroyed Wood Clone of Yecheng slowly shed its disguise and appeared before Tobirama.
"You took a direct hit from the Multiplicative Detonator Technique, and your Wood Clone still managed to withstand it!"
In response to Tobirama's astonished question, Yecheng's Wood Clone smiled bitterly. "It wasn't a direct hit. I had already run quite far.
The blast was so powerful that it even penetrated my Voidzer and protective barrier. To be honest, I almost didn't think I'd make it, but in the end, I survived by a hair's breadth."
"Did you use a space-time ninjutsu to escape at the last moment? But why... I understand now. It must have been during that brief moment when my vision was blocked by the bright light!"
"What an impressive kid. Not only is your strength exceptional, but your combat skills and experience are also so vast."
Realizing everything, Tobirama finally understood why Yecheng had used that blinding light technique when he approached.
If Tobirama noticed Yecheng using a space-time ninjutsu to escape, he would undoubtedly use the Flying Thunder God Technique to pursue him.
