Chapter 157: Divine Erosion [37]
Chapter 157: Divine Erosion [37]
As he had expected, after unleashing the Time Domain, he could cast a time-reversal effect on anything his body came into contact with, and this effect was manifested in the previous scene.
This state was somewhat similar to—
The Divine Might of the Time Release!
"Let's call this move... Divine Erosion," Feng Ye muttered to himself.
The power of time retrogression that erodes and disintegrates everything—Divine Erosion!
Unlike the Divine Might, which merely lets attacks pass through the body, 'Divine Erosion' causes anything that comes into contact with the body to disintegrate.
The only limitation is that the things touched cannot be too ancient, as the temporal energy would be insufficient to rewind their existence to before their birth, causing them to completely collapse and disintegrate.
Because of this, there is a drawback to this technique's offensive capability.
Even if he were to exhaust all his temporal energy at once, he could only revert a person back to their state from twenty years ago at most. While this could instantly kill ninja below the age of twenty, it didn't hold much significance.
On the other hand, when it comes to defense, ninjutsu was almost entirely ineffective against him. There was no way an opponent could suddenly spit out a Fireball Jutsu that they had been holding in their mouth for over a decade in the middle of a battle.
This included the Third Kazekage's Magnet Release: Iron Sand Needle Shower.
Although the iron sand needles dated back to a distant past, the Third Kazekage had only gathered and controlled them within a matter of seconds, so rewinding a few seconds was enough to disintegrate them.
"Time Acceleration, Rewind, Time Domain, Rewind Bullet, and now Divine Erosion. That's about it for my time-based abilities for now," Feng Ye mumbled to himself as he assessed his capabilities.
Just then, as Feng Ye was summarizing his abilities, the Third Kazekage, unable to contain himself any longer, let out a low shout and abruptly clapped his hands together.
"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Giant Sword!"
Buzz! !
A massive amount of iron sand surged and gathered, controlled by the Third Kazekage, and in front of Feng Ye, it condensed into a gigantic sword of iron sand, which slashed down at him with immense force.
In response to this attack, Feng Ye merely lifted his head nonchalantly, raised his right hand, extended his index finger, and touched it to the blade of the iron sand sword.
"Just one finger?!"
This sight left the nearby Sunagakure ninja astonished.
Under the gaze of countless onlookers, Feng Ye's plain-looking finger made contact with the edge of the gigantic iron sand blade controlled by the Third Kazekage.
Buzz!!
The gigantic iron sand blade, measuring five or six meters in length, suddenly froze in midair.
To the disbelief of the Sunagakure's covert ops leader and his companions, the frozen iron sand blade trembled as if subjected to some terrifying force, and then it exploded into a shower of sand!
Everyone, including the Third Kazekage, stood there dumbfounded. He had exerted almost all his strength to maintain the iron sand blade, but to no avail; it had crumbled instantly.
With just one finger, Feng Ye had destroyed his Magnet Release: Iron Sand technique. Was Feng Ye's body, which didn't seem exceptionally robust, already tempered into a Diamond Body that surpassed even that of the Raikage?!
"If this is all you've got, then it ends here," Feng Ye said as he halted his steps, retracted his finger, and drew out Kusanagi once more. His gaze swept over the Sunagakure ninja, who now wore expressions of fear.
Even though he stood below them, he gave all the Sunagakure ninja the impression that he was looking down at them from the heavens, indifferent and aloof.
In a calm tone, he said, "Peace built during war is always founded on pain. Only then can people truly appreciate the value of peace. So... feel the pain."
"Consider the pain."
"Accept the pain."
"Understand the pain."
Buzz!!!
Feng Ye leaped into the sky, a silvery flash slicing through the void and illuminating the ruins.
"Yatsuka no Magatama!! (Eight Span, Comma Jewel)"
In an instant, countless silvery lights rained down from the heavens, like a downpour of silver, carrying with them a sharpness that tore through everything.
Stunned by this display, the Sunagakure ninja unleashed various ninjutsu in a desperate attempt to resist. The Third Kazekage even joined forces with other ninja he had stationed beforehand to cast a Magnet Release barrier.
But...
Under the onslaught of the Eight Span, Comma Jewel, they continued to crumble!
The attack range of this technique was too vast, covering nearly the entire Sunagakure village.
"This ninjutsu..."
"No, it's not just ninjutsu..."
Many ninja were horrified as they tried to withstand the attack, but ordinary Earth Release techniques were of no use. Only the barriers created by some of the higher-level ninja working together could barely withstand the assault of the Eight Span, Comma Jewel.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
The ground trembled continuously.
When everything finally settled, half of Sunagakure had been reduced to ruins.
"Futile resistance..."
Feng Ye landed on the ground, his expression unreadable, Kusanagi in hand. His figure flickered, becoming a flash of silver that sped across the battlefield.
Whether it was barriers, seals, or other ninjutsu, nothing could stop Feng Ye's advance. The silvery light seemed to sweep away all obstacles with ease.
He continued to traverse the battlefield, and wherever he passed, Sunagakure ninja fell, their bodies broken, blood spraying as they collapsed.
"Damn it..."
"Get out of here, quick!!!"
Facing an unstoppable force, even the Third Kazekage's eyes widened in shock. He shouted to the ninja behind him and tried to restrain Feng Ye once more with his iron sand.
In an instant, the ninja surrounding Luo Sha lay dead, whether they were jonin or elite jonin, they couldn't withstand a single move from Feng Ye, and didn't even have time to perform a substitution jutsu.
Seeing this scene from a distance, the Sunagakure ninja finally collapsed completely, and a large number of ninja began to scatter, fleeing in all directions. The genin and chunin among them didn't dare to come to support their comrades.
Swish!!!
Feng Ye had almost slaughtered all the ninja near Luo Sha.
Seeing the other ninja fleeing to the distance, with only Luo Sha left on the spot, Feng Ye's gaze fell back on Luo Sha, and his figure flickered as he charged towards him.
Luo Sha also wanted to evacuate, but he couldn't. Because he feared Feng Ye's power, he was forced to condense the Gold Sand into a suit of armor and wear it himself.
Hiss!
Without unleashing the Time Domain again or using Time Retrogression, Feng Ye merely gripped Kusanagi and lunged forward, piercing straight through Luo Sha's Gold Sand armor with his incredible speed and the piercing power of Lightning Blade!
The sword tip penetrated the armor and pierced through Luo Sha's shoulder, impaling him to a large rock not far away, and the Gold Sand disintegrated.
"Cough... cough..."
Luo Sha looked at Feng Ye in front of him, fear flashing in his eyes.
Feng Ye stared at him for a few seconds before speaking, "Now, we can have a chat, Kazekage."
"You... what do you want to talk about...?"
Luo Sha's voice trembled as he spoke, unsure if it was due to the pain in his shoulder, or the fear of facing Feng Ye and the prospect of death.
Feng Ye tilted his head slightly and said, "There's a small town called Loulan at the border of the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire, barely even a country. You should know of that place... it's my base."
"!"
Cold sweat dripped from Luo Sha's forehead.
Feng Ye gently pulled out Kusanagi, wiping the blood off the blade, and said, "Your people invaded that place before, so I came here... I don't want anyone to invade there again, whether it's Sunagakure ninja or any other ninja. Otherwise, I'll come to have another chat with you. Do you understand?"
Luo Sha, who was so obsessed with power that he didn't even trust his own son as a jinchuriki and repeatedly sent people to assassinate him, didn't need to say how much he valued his own life.
For such a Kage, Feng Ye didn't bother to kill him, or rather, he didn't need to. With absolute strength, he could easily control the other party, along with the entire Sunagakure.
Perfect.
He could just let Sunagakure be in charge of guarding Loulan.
If it were the Raikage, a man of unwavering fortitude, then he would have no choice but to kill him, after all, he didn't have Uchiha Madara's Sharingan to control him.
But now, by defeating Sunagakure and mortally wounding the Fourth Kazekage, Luo Sha, a large number of Sunagakure ninja would go rogue, and either he would have to stay in Loulan or mobilize forces from Konoha to protect it, and there would be other troublesome issues to consider.
This way was just right.
Of course, Luo Sha, being such a treacherous ninja, wouldn't obediently listen to him, but unless he could find a way to counter Feng Ye's power or die himself, he would value his life.
And given Luo Sha's situation, even if he survived until the Fourth Shinobi World War, he probably wouldn't be able to find a way to counter the power Feng Ye had displayed.
"I... understand..."
Luo Sha responded in a trembling voice, his hand clutching his wounded shoulder, and a glimmer of joy flashed in his heart.
He never expected that Feng Ye wasn't invading Sunagakure for Konoha, but as an individual. If it were the former, he would probably be a corpse by now!
He really didn't want to die, he desperately clung to life. He had just become the Kazekage, and it had taken him so long to eliminate his political rivals and consolidate his power. If he died now, he wouldn't be able to accept it.
"Then it's up to you."
Feng Ye glanced at Luo Sha and turned to leave, walking out of Sunagakure and disappearing into the swirling sand.
It wasn't until Feng Ye was out of sight that the fear in Luo Sha's heart gradually faded. He clutched his wound, took a deep breath, straightened his body, and gazed at the devastated Sunagakure.
Just thinking about Feng Ye's overwhelming display of power made his body tremble slightly.
"Loulan?"
Luo Sha took a deep breath and made a decision, immediately regrouping his forces to assess the losses and sending an elite team to protect Loulan.
As for the idea of holding Loulan hostage to try and threaten or retaliate against Feng Ye, he dismissed it as soon as it appeared.
Such an act would be equivalent to signing his own death warrant.
He wouldn't consider it for now.
Feng Ye's power was too terrifying, his body that seemed to ignore all attacks, and his speed that was as fast as lightning, was simply beyond the capabilities of a normal human ninja!
...
In the 47th year of Konoha.
After being missing for over two years and declared dead by the major ninja villages, Konoha's Silver Flash reappeared in the ninja world. He single-handedly invaded Sunagakure, devastated the entire village, slaughtered countless Sunagakure ninja, and severely wounded the Fourth Kazekage, Luo Sha.
When the news spread.
The entire ninja world was in an uproar!
