Chapter 112: Gratitude for Namikaze Minato's Gift
"Xian Techniques!"
Yuyi Xuan Yue was pondering how to deal with the extremely agile Senju Tobirama and Namikaze Minato when a loud clap echoed through the air as Senju Hashirama activated his Sage Mode.
The rapidly strengthening Senju Hashirama immediately captured Yuyi Xuan Yue's attention once more.
As they clashed once again, Yuyi Xuan Yue realized that Hashirama, despite his physical limitations, could now match his pace.
"So this is the power of Senjutsu!" Yuyi Xuan Yue exclaimed inwardly, feeling the increased destructive force of Hashirama's fists.
He had been studying Xian techniques, but his primary focus had been on the Corpse Sealing Technique, and the challenges of researching Senjutsu were even greater. Although he had made some progress, he knew he still had a long way to go.
However, it was this very understanding of Xian techniques that made Yuyi Xuan Yue more cautious and inquisitive as he faced Hashirama in Sage Mode.
To be honest, the last time Hashirama had activated his Sage Mode, he had immediately unleashed his ultimate move, leaving Yuyi Xuan Yue no room to counter.
But this time, Yuyi Xuan Yue had the opportunity to engage Hashirama more closely and learn more about the Sage Mode.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The battle escalated once more as each punch and kick exchanged between Yuyi Xuan Yue and Senju Hashirama carried unimaginable power. The mere aftershocks of their clash made Sarutobi Hiruzen feel as if he were struggling to take each step.
As he watched a small hill crumble under the might of their battle, Sarutobi Hiruzen wisely halted and, drawing on his vast knowledge of ninjutsu, began to cast various techniques to hinder Yuyi Xuan Yue.
Just like at that moment.
Yuyi Xuan Yue lunged and shook the ground, forcing Hashirama back, his palms transforming into blades as he pressed his attack. But suddenly, the ground beneath his feet rose up.
Yuyi Xuan Yue's body moved involuntarily with the shift, and although he adjusted quickly, he had lost his opportunity to strike, leaving an opening for Hashirama to seize the initiative and force him onto the defensive.
Yuyi Xuan Yue glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was effortlessly weaving hand seals and casting various ninjutsu, causing no end of trouble.
Indeed, Sarutobi Hiruzen, with his experience and knowledge of over a thousand ninjutsu techniques, was not to be underestimated.
And with the unpredictable Senju Tobirama and Namikaze Minato, each Kage presented a formidable challenge.
"Xian Technique: Bright Shrine Gate!"
Senju Hashirama's loud shout rang out once more.
Yuyi Xuan Yue looked up to see countless red torii gates descending from the heavens.
Having no desire to be sealed, Yuyi Xuan Yue swiftly dodged.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The red torii gates followed Yuyi Xuan Yue's footsteps, falling one after another and sinking deep into the earth.
Unbeknownst to him, Yuyi Xuan Yue was being herded towards a pile of rocks that had been displaced by their previous battle.
He didn't notice that beneath the pile of rocks, a hidden Flying Thunder God seal suddenly appeared.
Whoosh!
A faint ripple of spatial ninjutsu echoed through the air.
Although the Flying Thunder God Technique was a space-time teleportation jutsu, each activation still created a slight disturbance.
Most ninjas did not possess such keen perception.
Even if they sensed something, their bodies wouldn't be able to react in time.
But Yuyi Xuan Yue was different.
Having experienced this countless times before, he instinctively formed an ice layer around himself without a moment's hesitation.
Snap!
A palm reached out to grasp Yuyi Xuan Yue's shoulder, only to be blocked by the layer of ice.
Yuyi Xuan Yue turned his head, narrowing his eyes, "A trap?"
Seeing Senju Tobirama's movements, he intended to pull him into a Flying Thunder God Technique.
And the destination, as expected, was one of the red torii gates of the Xian Technique: Bright Shrine Gate.
As his plan was thwarted, Senju Tobirama's expression remained unchanged.
Flying Thunder God Mutual Instant Switch Technique!
At some point, Senju Tobirama and Namikaze Minato had secretly imprinted the Flying Thunder God Technique on each other's bodies.
In that instant, Namikaze Minato replaced Senju Tobirama, appearing abruptly before Yuyi Xuan Yue.
Yuyi Xuan Yue suddenly realized that Namikaze Minato had also entered Sage Mode.
In his lifetime, Namikaze Minato had studied sage techniques from Mount Myoboku, but due to the lengthy time required to gather senjutsu chakra and its limited duration, he rarely used it in actual combat.
However, after his death, due to his non-corporeal state and with no risk to his body, he could gather senjutsu chakra much faster and maintain it for longer periods.
Although he wasn't a Impure World Reincarnation body, with the boost from the Death God's Rosary, Namikaze Minato's unique physical condition allowed him to enter Sage Mode while Yuyi Xuan Yue was distracted by the Bright Shrine Gate.
Appearing before Yuyi Xuan Yue, he aimed to catch him off guard.
"Senjutsu: Rasengan!"
Namikaze Minato forcefully pressed the Rasengan, empowered by senjutsu chakra and several times more potent than usual, towards Yuyi Xuan Yue's chest.
Crackle~~~
The ice layer in front of Yuyi Xuan Yue instantly shattered.
With the distance too close and no time to dodge, Yuyi Xuan Yue's eyes flickered as he fully activated his Steel Release.
The next moment—
BOOM!!!
A violent collision of ninjutsu occurred.
A long, dragon-like smoke trail carrying spiral currents flew backward rapidly.
At the same time, the Senjutsu Rasengan in Namikaze Minato's hand quickly dissipated.
"Is it over?"
Not far away, Sarutobi Hiruzen, holding the Kongou Nyoi, looked towards Yuyi Xuan Yue's position and asked with a sigh of relief.
Senju Tobirama appeared beside Namikaze Minato, about to use his fingers to sense the surroundings.
Senju Hashirama walked over and said, "Is it over? No, this is just the beginning."
"As expected of Yuyi Xuan Yue. Compared to our last encounter, he has become even more well-rounded."
Hearing Senju Hashirama's words, Senju Tobirama, Sarutobi Hiruzen, and Namikaze Minato's expressions turned grave.
"Couldn't even that last attack take him down?" Namikaze Minato furrowed his brows.
The enemy was far more powerful than he had imagined.
Sarutobi Hiruzen used Wind Release to blow away the dust and smoke that had been stirred up.
Soon, Yuyi Xuan Yue's figure appeared before them.
The Steel Release had not completely blocked the Senjutsu Rasengan.
At this moment, they could see that Yuyi Xuan Yue's chest, where his heavily damaged upper garment lay, had a sizable dent.
While this would be considered a severe injury for most ninjas, it seemed to be of little concern to Yuyi Xuan Yue.
Noticing the four Kage looking at him, Yuyi Xuan Yue remained calm, even smiling slightly as he tore off his tattered upper garment, dusted himself off, and praised with great satisfaction:
"As expected of the Kage."
The fact that the four Kage, who were not in their prime, could perform so well exceeded his expectations.
But the outcome was still predetermined.
"By the way, I have to thank you, Namikaze Minato, for your gift."
As Namikaze Minato looked on in confusion, Yuyi Xuan Yue thanked him and then placed his right hand on the dent created by the Senjutsu Rasengan.
"Senjutsu Extraction Technique!"
Green chakra wrapped around Yuyi Xuan Yue's palm.
Soon, all the senjutsu chakra originating from Namikaze Minato was extracted and gathered in his right palm.
Looking at the senjutsu chakra in his hand, Yuyi Xuan Yue smiled faintly and said,
"The senjutsu chakra of the Mount Myoboku system is now mine."
