Chapter 1031: The Betrayal from the Son's Back!
Chapter 1031: The Betrayal from the Son's Back!
Sasuke first released Susanoo, preparing to unleash a powerful technique.
Boom!
The sky was filled with dark clouds, and within them, a silver lightning bolt flickered.
With Sasuke's current strength, the technique he was about to use could easily destroy a city, if not an entire nation.
A lightning bolt emerged from Sasuke's palm, connecting directly to the clouds above as if it were a lightning rein.
"Rikudou. Raijutsu. Kirin!"
As Sasuke commanded, the silver lightning within the clouds condensed into a Kirin, revealing its head.
Indeed, the power of this technique had reached the 'Six Paths Level'.
Moreover, Sasuke's control over the technique had significantly improved.
The size of the Kirin, formed from lightning, didn't change much, only a few dozen meters in length. It wasn't particularly large, and some might even consider it small.
Given the vastness of the dark clouds, the Kirin's size made it appear somewhat insignificant.
However, it exuded a sense of liveliness.
This silver lightning Kirin seemed not just a technique but a living being.
This was truly frightening.
But it wasn't incomprehensible.
After all, Yin Release was about 'creating form from nothingness', and Susanoo was the epitome of Yin Release.
Under the influence of extreme Yin Release, it wasn't surprising that the Kirin manifested in this manner.
If Sasuke possessed extreme Yang Release, this lightning Kirin would be more than just 'life-like'; it was a fusion of extreme Yin and Yang Release, creating life from nothingness.
"Let the thunder roar and cleanse everything!"
As Sasuke chanted, he tugged at the lightning reins, directing the several-meter-long Kirin towards the Sage of Six Paths.
"You..."
The Sage of Six Paths, who had been confident in Sasuke's arrival, managed to utter only this word before being engulfed by the Kirin.
Zzzzz!
The terrifying sound of surging electricity filled the air as the silver lightning consumed the entire sky.
The distance between this location and Tang Ping's suspended position was less than a few hundred meters, a testament to the Sage of Six Paths' combat prowess.
It wasn't that the Ryounin weren't exerting their full strength; on the contrary, they were giving it their all.
The numerous corpses were proof that they were holding nothing back.
Unfortunately, even Kage-level warriors couldn't withstand more than a few rounds against the Sage of Six Paths.
Only those at the Soutensei level could manage to last over a dozen rounds.
This was possible because they had prior knowledge and weren't countered.
If they used Ninjutsu, they might not even last a single round.
"Good, it seems he's regained consciousness!"
Uzumaki Budou was standing between Tang Ping and the Sage of Six Paths, watching the engulfed opponent, her gaze fixed on Sasuke, who was a little further behind. She muttered to herself, her heart easing.
With this reinforcement, they could buy some more time.
As for Naruto, there was no need to consider countermeasures; as long as he could stall, it was a victory.
The opponent's situation was different from Sasuke's.
Not only had the Heijue manipulated him from the start, but he was also on Konohagakure's side, leaving no room for defection.
Furthermore, even if defection were possible, they wouldn't want to accept it.
The opponent's personality was too saintly and twisted, and the drawbacks of absorbing him far outweighed the benefits. So, whoever wanted him, Tang Ping had already made it clear that there was no need to consider absorbing the opponent.
Even if the opponent were Kuki's child, Meiko's 'brother' would be the same.
Hmm, perhaps it was because of this that Tang Ping, even with the means of resurrection, wouldn't consider reviving his sister, Kuki. He was afraid it would break her heart.
Isuzu might not be as skilled in offense as Hyuga Aikotsuki or Uzumaki Budou, but when it came to single-target defense, she was undeniably off the charts.
Her heavenly speed made it impossible for the target to shake her off, and with the Mangekyou ability 'Izanagi', it was like having dozens of lives to spare.
Taking one of Isuzu's lives wasn't difficult; the Sage of Six Paths couldn't take her down in a few dozen rounds.
As long as Izumi doesn't fall for Naruto's talk no jutsu, she can hold her own against him in a one-on-one fight, preventing this unpredictable 'protagonist' from causing any unexpected surprises.
For Tang Ping and his allies, their greatest fear is not the Sage of Six Paths, but rather Naruto, the quintessential 'main character'.
Because he's the protagonist, anything is possible for him.
To avoid a potential 'dimensional strike' from Naruto, they had prepared a plan in advance and tasked Izumi with holding him off.
As long as she can stall him, that's all they need!
While Izumi might not be able to defeat Naruto, who can infinitely 'power up', she is truly fearless when it comes to holding him back.
Without Naruto's interference, even if the Reiyo Country's forces continue to sacrifice themselves, everyone is confident that Tang Ping will ultimately emerge victorious, and they can also be resurrected in the process.
Their souls are not destined for the Pure Land but will instead go to Heaven.
Furthermore, the current area is enclosed within a barrier, ensuring that all souls will be intercepted and directed to the Heaven above, saving them the trouble of that process.
As a result, no one fears death.
As long as they are cautious and avoid being struck down by Yin-Yang Release or the Sonneityama, they should be safe.
These attacks have the power to annihilate both body and soul.
It's as absurd as the expanding Sonneityama or the Kongsha Huihu.
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ send ⊥!
At this moment, within the barrier, the remaining Reiyo Country's upper echelons can be counted on one hand.
Hyuga Aikotsuki survived because someone intervened to save her.
After all, her Tensei Eye and Kongsha Huihu are both Kekkai Genkai abilities, and she can't guarantee her safety after resurrection.
Yakura, Kyuubi, and Uzumaki Shou, among others, fought valiantly until their demise.
Only the new generation's leader, Gouren, Naruto, who is responsible for mobility and support, and Hina, who was brought into the barrier at a critical moment and avoided being hung up as a 'battery', remain.
Hina is Tang Ping's last line of defense.
She hadn't taken action earlier because it would have been futile.
With the Sage of Six Paths' strength, evading or blocking their long-range attacks is child's play.
The most crucial point is that the previous attack was a clear betrayal of their allies.
Therefore, they must choose the right moment to strike.
In other words, within the barrier, the surviving members of Reiyo Country, aside from Tang Ping, are Hyuga Aikotsuki, Uzumaki Budou, Izumi, Gouren, Meiko, and Hina.
Sasuke, having switched sides, can also be considered an ally of Reiyo Country.
The situation is clear! This decisive battle that will shape the future of the Ninja World is nearing its conclusion.
It all depends on whether the Sage of Six Paths can stop Tang Ping's ascension.
However, this situation might not be what Tang Ping wants to see.
Do you remember what he fears most about the Sage of Six Paths?
It has never been the Sage's strength, but rather the fear that the Sage might hide in the Pure Land and refuse to come out.
If that were to happen, no matter how powerful Tang Ping is, he would have no means to deal with the Sage, and could only passively endure the Sage's schemes.
That would be truly disgusting.
Therefore, no matter the cost or the risk, Tang Ping is determined to eliminate the Sage of Six Paths.
With this thought, he accelerates his ascension, striving to complete it as soon as possible.
It is at this moment that Sasuke's betrayal takes effect.
The Sage of Six Paths... no, at this moment, he should be given a new title.
Coal Sage!
Caught off guard, the Sage is struck by Sasuke's powerful attack and turns completely black.
The fact that he didn't turn into flying ash is a testament to the extraordinary resilience of a Six Paths-level body, but it's impossible for him to escape unscathed.
However, the Sage of Six Paths looks at Sasuke with no trace of doubt in his eyes.
He can clearly see that Sasuke has freed himself from the influence of Indra's Chakra.
"This is my 'gift' in return for your 'present'!"
Facing the gaze of the Sage of Six Paths, Erzhuzi's tone is icy, filled with anger and hatred.
Indeed, no one enjoys being manipulated.
Even if the other party is the founder of Ninshu, the Sage of Six Paths, the sentiment remains the same.
