Chapter 121: The Peak Battle of the Ninja World 【1920】
Chapter 121: The Peak Battle of the Ninja World 【1920】
Fengye was faster than him, and it would be difficult for him to kill Fengye. The Third Raikage didn't intend to kill Fengye either.
As long as he could cover Ye Yue'ai and Killer B's retreat, it would be enough.
Moreover, Fengye was a lightning-style ninja, not a wind-style ninja. Even if he was faster than the Raikage, it would be extremely difficult to do anything to him. The Raikage only needed to delay things for a moment and deplete Fengye's chakra, and he could escape.
"..."
Bathed in the silver light, Fengye gazed at the Third Raikage from a distance. The Grass-Cutting Sword in his hand gathered the hissing of a thousand birds, weaving and condensing on the blade. Under his control, the hissing became much hoarser, and the scattered lightning arcs became more focused and intense!
On the other side, the Third Raikage held his right arm horizontally in front of him, slowly curling his pinky finger and pressing it down with his thumb. The lightning emanating from his fingertips also surged in intensity, becoming even more piercing.
Hell Stab,
Three-Fingered Pierce!
Facing Fengye, who was faster than his son and had suppressed the Eight-Tails, the Third Raikage did not show any carelessness or underestimate his opponent. He treated Fengye as a ninja of the same caliber as himself.
The surging chakra within his body made Kurenai Yuhi and the others, who were standing far away, feel an immense pressure, and a cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
The Third Raikage!
Known to the Cloud ninjas as the strongest Raikage of all generations!
The First Raikage, along with the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama, ended the Warring States era and established the system of one country and one village. The Second Raikage devoted himself to the study of lightning-style jutsu, exhausting his life energy to explore and develop secret techniques such as Lightning Release Chakra Mode and Lightning Release Armor.
The Third Raikage inherited the secret techniques researched by the Second Raikage and perfected them, cultivating them to their peak. He had surpassed the Second Raikage, the very creator of these techniques!
On the other side, bathed in the silvery light, Fengye's flowing chakra was no less formidable than that of the Third Raikage, equally as heart-pounding and terrifying.
This level of terrifying chakra was something they had never felt from Orochimaru or Jiraiya. The only one who could match this intensity was the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen!
A chakra equivalent to the Third Hokage's!
Coupled with Fengye's swordsmanship, speed, and the fact that he had suppressed the Eight-Tails... The thought crossed Kurenai's mind that Fengye's strength was no longer inferior to that of the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen!
Thus, the battle between Fengye and the Third Raikage was perhaps a confrontation between the two most powerful ninjas at the very pinnacle of the ninja world!
"Fengye..."
Tsunade clenched her fists.
She hadn't felt this sense of powerlessness in a long time.
She could forcibly intervene in Fengye's battle with the Eight-Tails, but it would be extremely difficult for her to do the same in his battle with the Third Raikage, as both of them were speed-type ninjas!
The only thing she could do was to have a slug crawl onto Fengye's body and hide inside his clothes. This way, she could rely on the slug to transmit chakra and heal Fengye's injuries at any time.
"..."
Fengye glanced down at the slug that had crawled into his chest.
Having a slimy slug crawl into his clothes was certainly not a pleasant feeling, but after his experiences with Orochimaru, he had learned to take such things in stride.
But now, did this mean that Aatrox had a cat on him?
Or had he found himself a wet nurse?
After these thoughts flashed through his mind, Fengye's mood improved slightly, and his gaze toward the Third Raikage became more composed.
Perfect.
Now, with the Third Raikage as a benchmark, he could further test the results of his training!
Under the watchful eyes of Tsunade and Kurenai, Fengye moved. Bathed in silver light, he vanished from his original spot in an instant.
He reappeared behind the Third Raikage, and the Grass-Cutting Sword in his hand, wrapped in lightning, slashed down at the Raikage.
One could see
a white trail lingering in the void.
It wasn't a trace left by Fengye's movement but a residual image from the previous moment, as his speed was too fast for the visual nerves to keep up.
The Third Raikage suddenly turned around, and his three fingers met Fengye's Grass-Cutting Sword, piercing upward. The terrifying lightning-style chakra was compressed at his fingertips, forming a substantial blade.
Fengye's eyes flashed, and the Grass-Cutting Sword in his hand suddenly became a residual image.
"Atomic Slash!"
It seemed as if something had happened.
The Third Raikage froze in place for a moment, then his body flew backward, bathed in lightning. Countless white threads appeared on his body, like a fishing net.
The ground beneath his feet also shattered into countless fragments, evidently having been sliced countless times in an instant, as if struck by a weakened Dust Release technique.
"So fast..."
The Third Raikage stabilized his stance after flying back several meters. A gleam flashed in his eyes.
Fengye's sword-swinging speed in that instant was so fast that even he found it challenging to block. He only managed to block a small portion, but his speed was sufficient, although the power was not enough to break through his defense.
"Even the Kusanagi Sword can't pierce through? As expected of the Third Raikage."
Fengye remained calm.
It seemed that relying on speed and the sharpness of the Grass-Cutting Sword, while able to avoid colliding with Hell Stab and directly attack the Third Raikage's body, was insufficient to break through his defense.
Using the Crescent Moon Beheading technique, the Third Raikage could counter with Hell Stab, negating some of its power, but it was still unable to tear through the lightning-style chakra cloak surrounding the Third Raikage.
In other words,
A stronger technique was needed.
"Since that's the case..."
Fengye slowly spoke, then placed the Grass-Cutting Sword horizontally in front of him. The violent chakra within his body suddenly surged, flowing into the blade of the Grass-Cutting Sword.
This was not a flow of chakra.
Nor was it chakra solidification.
Instead, it was an extremely forceful method, where the violent chakra within his body was forcibly poured into the blade of the Grass-Cutting Sword like a river flowing upstream!
Pilipala!
The lightning arcs of the Thousand Birds collapsed and scattered, replaced by violent and uncontrolled lightning-style chakra, forcibly suppressed by Fengye within the blade of the Grass-Cutting Sword.
Such high-density lightning-style chakra would have caused the Ninja Sword Hakuya to crumble and scatter, but the Grass-Cutting Sword, as a divine artifact, could withstand it!
One could see
The Grass-Cutting Sword in Fengye's hand erupted with terrifying lightning.
The surging lightning-attribute chakra had already caused changes in the nearby air, with numerous lightning arcs weaving through the air, drawn by the Grass-Cutting Sword.
Fengye continued to infuse chakra, and lightning arcs continuously burst forth from the Grass-Cutting Sword, falling onto the nearby ground and blasting small pits into it.
"Not good..."
The Third Raikage's expression changed.
He could sense the amount of chakra that Fengye had infused and condensed within the Grass-Cutting Sword, and it had reached a terrifying level, causing even him to instinctively sense danger.
Without hesitation, the Third Raikage curled another finger and charged toward Fengye, thrusting both palms toward Fengye's chest in an attempt to stop him.
Swoosh!!!
Fengye, cloaked in silver light, dodged the Third Raikage's attack. He didn't pause and continued to infuse chakra into the sword.
Finally.
He felt that the Grass-Cutting Sword had reached its limit.
The entire Grass-Cutting Sword had transformed into a radiant sword of brilliant white light, with lightning arcs continuously being drawn down from the sky, intertwining with the lightning radiating from the blade.
"This is the correct way to use the Grass-Cutting Sword."
Fengye raised his left hand, grasping the dazzling and radiant Grass-Cutting Sword, which seemed to have condensed lightning into a physical form, as he faced the Third Raikage.
Then, he took a step forward and suddenly swung the sword.
Brilliant white light burst forth from the blade, instantly illuminating the entire sky and land.
Whether it was Kurenai Yuhi or Tsunade and the others, at this moment, they involuntarily closed their eyes, unable to bear the sight of the light that resembled a miniature sun exploding.
The entire world seemed to be left with only a dazzling white expanse.
This was currently Fengye's most powerful attack, and as he had predicted that the move would create a tremendous commotion, he had not fully attempted it before, only confirming its feasibility.
This move was named—
Heavenly Flash!
