Chapter 117: The Ferocious Eight-Tails [1520]
Chapter 117: The Ferocious Eight-Tails [1520]
"Indeed, he is fast."
Facing the Raikage's swift hand chop, Feng Ye murmured, his body suddenly leaning back to evade the attack. Simultaneously, his right hand clenched into a fist and swung towards the Raikage's face.
A fleeting glance of surprise flashed in the Raikage's eyes.
Feng Ye's speed was a notch slower than his, but his neural response and dynamic vision seemed extraordinarily acute, allowing him to dodge the attack despite his speed disadvantage.
Boom!!!
The Raikage swung his arm to block the punch.
The collision of fist and arm unleashed a burst of lightning arcs.
"Damn..."
Tsunade watched the clash between Feng Ye and A's son, Yae. She had hoped to avoid Feng Ye having to resort to forbidden techniques, but it seemed that was no longer an option given the sheer power of the Third Raikage's son.
Whoosh!
Tsunade attempted to support Feng Ye, but Killer B swiftly intercepted her, blocking her path.
"Bro's fighting, no interruptions allowed. If you wanna fight, bring it on, yo!"
"Get lost!"
Tsunade's head pounded at Killer B's quirky tone, and she let out a fierce shout, thrusting her fist forward.
Killer B countered with his own punch.
Boom!!
The fists collided in mid-air, setting off a thunderous boom.
In his Beast Cloak state, infused with the power of the Eight-Tails, Killer B's speed and strength far surpassed his normal state. Yet, this exchange of blows still sent him stumbling back several meters.
"Whoa, what strength, lady! Hey, you must be single, yeah? Lightning-fast Blade!"
Killer B, propelled several meters back, exclaimed with a curious tone, undeterred as he charged forward again.
Even without fully transforming into the Eight-Tails, Killer B's Beast Cloak state still possessed enough power to entangle Tsunade, preventing her from breaking free and forcing her into a protracted struggle.
On the other side.
After exchanging a blow with the Raikage, Feng Ye remained composed despite his speed disadvantage. His eyes calm, the chakra within his body stirred, and the fourth gate of the Eight Inner Gates instantly opened.
Threads of lightning arcs wove through his hair.
With the fourth gate opened, Feng Ye's aura shifted. His external chakra light leaned more towards silver-white, contrasting with the Raikage's, which tended towards blue.
Boom!!!
Feng Ye threw a punch, colliding with the Raikage, then swiftly drew the Kusanagi Sword, slashing horizontally.
An arc of fire and light sped towards the Raikage.
"...His speed increased?!"
The Raikage had noticed the anomaly in Feng Ye, and his expression shifted slightly. He brought down a hand chop, causing Feng Ye's flashing attack to explode in mid-air.
More adept at speed than defense, the Raikage's protective capacity was inferior to the Third Raikage's. Nonetheless, in his Lightning Release Chakra Mode, he still boasted exceptionally high defense, making it challenging for ordinary attacks to affect him.
Whoosh!!
The Raikage charged at Feng Ye once more.
With the fourth gate opened, Feng Ye could now match the Raikage's speed. He was no longer on the back foot, instead, bathed in silver light, he rushed towards the Raikage.
Crackle-crackle!!
Lightning arcs continually burst between the two combatants.
In Kurenai Yuhi and the others' eyes, they could barely make out a cerulean light cluster and a silver-white light cluster, flickering, clashing, and intersecting... Wherever they collided, strands of lightning lingered and entwined in the void.
For a time, no one could discern who held the advantage.
Kurenai Yuhi was well aware that such a battle was beyond their capacity to intervene. Having made her assessment, she promptly gave the order, leading her team towards the nearby Kumo ninjas. The two sides swiftly engaged in close-quarters combat, locked in a fierce struggle.
Even Killer B couldn't determine if Yayoi had suppressed Feng Ye or if they were evenly matched.
"Slightly slower than me in speed, but his reaction time and dynamic vision are superior... This kid..."
The Fourth Raikage's expression turned gloomy.
After Feng Ye opened the fourth gate, his speed advantage became less apparent, and the most troublesome thing was that Feng Ye had the Kusanagi Sword, whose blade was too sharp for him to withstand!
Although he could withstand a few clashes with his specially made metal bracers, after multiple collisions, his bracers had visibly sustained damage and could no longer withstand the sword.
If the bracers were completely damaged, it would mean having to face the sword barehanded, which would be extremely restrictive.
"Fight!!!'
Sensing that continuing the stalemate with Feng Ye would turn unfavorable, the Fourth Raikage suddenly roared.
He had a volatile temperament, but he wasn't foolish. Upon realizing that the situation would turn against him if it continued, he immediately decided to change tactics, and he wasn't fighting alone!
Killer B, who was battling Tsunade nearby, heard this roar and instantly understood his brother's intention through their bond.
"Even Big Bro is helpless against that silver flash."
Killer B was surprised, but it didn't stop him from knowing what he had to do. Without hesitation, he dropped the Tailed Beast Chakra Cloak state, and massive octopus-like tentacles suddenly lashed out, viciously slapping toward Tsunade.
Tsunade countered with a Rising Knee Strike, kicking the enormous tentacle away, but more tentacles immediately pressed forward.
"A complete Tailed Beast transformation?! Just as the intel said, he's a perfect jinchuriki who can use the full power of the Tailed Beast!"
Tsunade's expression changed slightly.
She could fight Killer B in his Tailed Beast Cloak form, but it was a completely different story after his complete Tailed Beast transformation!
Without hesitation, she bit her finger and pressed it to the ground.
Bang!!
White smoke flashed, and a gigantic slug was summoned.
"Lady Tsunade."
"Assist me, Katsuyu!"
Standing on the slug's head, Tsunade looked toward Killer B, who had now completely transformed into the Eight-Tails, her expression grave.
She was well aware of the power that Tailed Beasts possessed, and even with Katsuyu's help, blocking the Eight-Tails would be incredibly difficult!
"So you have a summoning creature as well. But that will only buy you a little more time!"
In his Tailed Beast form, Killer B also became more ferocious. He knew that Yayoi was at a disadvantage, so he had to finish off Tsunade quickly and then go support his brother.
The Eight-Tails' massive body let out an earth-shattering roar, and its eight tentacles retracted before violently spinning like a storm, hurtling toward the slug.
Whoosh!!!
Under this ferocious attack, the slug resembled a mud pie, disintegrating from the head down into chunks.
Slug fragments flew in all directions.
"Damn it!"
Tsunade gritted her teeth, but in the face of the raging Eight-Tails, she could only retreat and had no means to confront it directly.
Kurenai Yuhi and the others nearby were also shocked by the terrifying power unleashed by the Eight-Tails, feeling as fragile as paper, fearing that the slightest collision would result in injury or death!
This was not a power that humans could contend with!
