Chapter 735: Creating History
Chapter 735: Creating History
"Summoning Technique!"
Batu, protected by his Armored Color Secret Technique, burst through the Sand Gold rain at an incredible speed and leaped into the air, summoning the Flame Dragon.
"Fly higher, quickly! The enemy can control the Sand Gold on the ground to attack."
Batu quickly gave the command as he landed on the Flame Dragon's back.
The Flame Dragon exhaled two white breaths from its nostrils, slightly annoyed that Batu had dared to ride on its back.
However, considering they were in the midst of battle, the Flame Dragon gave Batu some face and didn't throw him off. Instead, it immediately obeyed Batu's command and flapped its wings vigorously, ascending to a higher altitude.
"A flying Summoning Beast? A last-ditch effort."
Ra Sha let out a cold huff, and his chakra surged as he manipulated the Sand Gold on the battlefield, preparing to unleash a massive-range Magnet Style jutsu that would leave Batu with nowhere to hide.
The Martial Arts Tournament had restrictions on flying height; flying too high would result in disqualification and an automatic loss.
"Flame Dragon, use the Great Sun Technique with all your might! You only need to maintain it for three minutes."
Batu continued to issue commands.
The Great Sun Technique was incredibly powerful, capable of weakening Water Jutsu while enhancing Fire Jutsu, but its effects were indiscriminate, affecting all within range, including allies. Therefore, it required careful timing and positioning.
If used improperly, it could weaken an ally's Water Jutsu and strengthen an opponent's Fire Jutsu.
Batu was well aware of Ra Sha's abilities; he knew that Ra Sha had some proficiency in Water Jutsu, but compared to Wind, Earth, and Magnet Style, Water Jutsu was not Ra Sha's forte, and he couldn't use Fire Jutsu at all.
The Great Sun Technique was perfect for amplifying Batu's and the Flame Dragon's abilities while slightly weakening Ra Sha's.
"Roar!"
The Flame Dragon quickly gathered Fire-attribute chakra and expelled an incredibly dazzling fireball into the sky.
With each ascent, the fireball became more radiant, releasing intense heat in all directions, causing the temperature to soar.
As the fireball reached a certain height, the sky above the arena became brighter than noon, and the entire Martial Arts Tournament grounds experienced a change in temperature.
The battlefield, being at the center of this radiant light, was even more affected, causing beads of sweat to form on Ra Sha's forehead due to the rapid temperature rise.
"It's the Great Sun Technique!"
Many ninjas in the audience instantly recognized the jutsu.
Years ago, when the Leaf Village's Genius fought the Mist Hidden Ninja forces, Mumu had slain a powerful Mist ninja using the Great Sun Secret Technique, turning night into day and weakening the Mist ninja's Water Jutsu. This unique jutsu had left a lasting impression on the ninja world, and many remembered its peculiar effects.
Especially the Mist Hidden Village, who had a deep impression of this jutsu.
"How can a Summoning Beast use this jutsu?"
Some ninjas were perplexed by this, wondering why Batu, a disciple of Mumu, wasn't using it himself.
"Perhaps it's due to excessive chakra consumption?"
Someone speculated.
The ninjas didn't dwell on these minor details and instead focused their attention on the match, curious to see if Batu had any other tricks up his sleeve.
At this moment, most still held the initial belief that Ra Sha would emerge victorious in the battle.
Although the Great Sun Technique was powerful, it was clearly designed for functionality in ninja squad operations, and its effectiveness in solo combat was limited, not enough to turn the tide of the battle.
This highlighted the importance of intelligence.
Since Mumu rarely used the Great Sun Technique, even the Leaf Village ninjas had limited knowledge of it, let alone those who had only heard of its name.
In truth, the Great Sun Technique, a localized version of the Great Sun Jutsu, could be enhanced by reducing its range, shortening its duration, and increasing the chakra required to perform it.
This was why Batu instructed the Flame Dragon to use it at full power and emphasized the need to maintain it for only three minutes.
However, the stronger effect also restricted Batu; he had to defeat Ra Sha within three minutes, or the Great Sun Technique's effects would dissipate.
Swoosh—
Under the influence of Ra Sha's Magnet Style chakra, the Sand Gold on the battlefield began to flow like living creatures. It was like an ocean pulled by magnetic forces, with waves crashing and never-ending.
The vast battlefield's Sand Gold moved in unison, forming a vast golden torrent that resembled a true sea, shimmering with light yet emitting a cold, metallic glow.
"Magnet Style: Golden Sand Wave!"
As Ra Sha's massive Magnet Style chakra erupted, the sea of Sand Gold on the battlefield suddenly burst forth with astonishing energy.
The golden torrent surged upwards, weaving into gigantic nets in the air that covered the entire battlefield sky.
"These tournament battles are too advantageous for ninjas who master large-scale jutsu."
A Leaf Village ninja exclaimed.
Despite the Shinshu's efforts to create a spacious battlefield, it was still not enough for a Kage-level battle.
You're quite the evasive one, I'll just use a ninjutsu to cover the entire arena and see how you dodge that.
"Flame Style Chakra Mode!"
Batu silently focused his breath to the extreme, greatly enhancing his physical abilities and Fire Nature Transformation.
"Fire Release: Flare Emperor!"
Batu raised his hands, and in that instant, a massive amount of chakra within his body transformed into Fire Nature Chakra.
Intense flames erupted around Batu, rapidly gathering in his hands, forming a gigantic tangerine-red fireball over ten meters in size.
Due to the Flare Emperor's impressive hit rate, comparable to the Great Fireball, Batu usually preferred using his improved Flare Emperor modification.
However, this time, he needed to break through the Sand Gold Giant Net's blockade, so he didn't worry about missing his target. The powerful Flare Emperor became an excellent choice.
As Batu used his ninjutsu, Flame Dragon didn't idle either. It took a deep breath, gathering chakra in its throat.
Just as Batu was about to throw the Flare Emperor, Flame Dragon opened its huge mouth and exhaled a scorching gust of wind, further intensifying the flames of the Flare Emperor.
Soon, the rapidly ascending Sand Gold Giant Net met the gigantic fireball thrown by Batu.
Boom! Boom!
A fierce explosion erupted, and the clashing firelight turned the entire battlefield into a sea of crimson.
Large patches of Sand Gold, scorched to a fiery red, fell onto the arena, creating numerous charred craters.
The terrifying high-temperature explosion of the Flare Emperor instantly blasted a massive gap in the Sand Gold Giant Net, which was large enough to cover the entire battlefield sky.
Whoosh!
Flame Dragon vigorously flapped its wings and charged towards the gap, swiftly carrying Batu to attack Ra Sha on the ground.
Ra Sha's expression changed slightly, surprised that Batu could use such a terrifying Fire Jutsu.
At this thought, Ra Sha dared not hold back any longer. He abandoned controlling the Sand Gold in the air and immediately unleashed his chakra, creating a large amount of Sand Gold once more.
"Magnet Style: Sand Gold Domain!"
The Sand Gold that emerged from the ground quickly formed sharp sand spikes, attacking Batu and Flame Dragon from all directions.
This time, Ra Sha exerted all his strength, creating dozens of sand spikes in one go, determined to make it impossible for Batu to dodge, forcing him to use the Flying Thunder God Technique.
Taking advantage of the cover provided by the large patches of Sand Gold, Ra Sha had already set up Flying Thunder God Kunai. If Batu dared to teleport there, the battle would be over instantly.
Bang!
Batu immediately canceled the Summoning Technique, and Flame Dragon dissipated into a white mist in the air.
Without the Armored Color Secret Technique and due to its size, Flame Dragon was not agile enough to dodge the dense attacks and was easily injured.
Moreover, after using the Flame Secret Technique, Flame Dragon's mission was essentially complete.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Dozens of sand spikes simultaneously shot towards Batu from all directions, but they passed through him as if he were an illusion, piercing deep into the ground and creating numerous craters.
"How is this possible?"
Ra Sha's pupils dilated, and he stared at this bizarre scene in astonishment.
He quickly checked his chakra and confirmed that he wasn't under a genjutsu.
"Divine Power!"
Batu's figure flickered, rapidly approaching Ra Sha.
His eye chakra erupted, and he glared at Ra Sha, opening the Divine Power space and shooting out the hundreds of Flying Thunder God Kunai stored within.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Countless Flying Thunder God Kunai appeared out of thin air, piercing through the air and shooting towards Ra Sha.
Even though Ra Sha quickly reacted and created a Sand Gold shield to block, these were not ordinary kunai; they were all Flying Thunder God Kunai imbued with techniques by Batu.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
With these hundreds of Flying Thunder God Kunai, Batu swiftly moved about, making it impossible for Ra Sha's Magnet Style to keep up.
Whoosh!
"Fire Release: Blue Flame!"
Batu used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport next to Ra Sha, and with the assistance of the Flame Style Chakra Mode, the massive amount of chakra within his body transformed into Fire Nature Chakra, becoming a blue flame that Batu expelled.
Before Ra Sha could control the Sand Gold to fly and create distance, he felt a scorching heat that was almost unbearable.
Ra Sha instinctively turned his head, his eyelids twitching, and his hands trembled uncontrollably.
His once impenetrable Sand Gold shield had silently melted away, and the terrifying flame that melted the shield was less than a meter from his back.
"You lose," Batu said, suppressing his excitement.
With this Blue Flame, he was worried about burning Ra Sha to the point of an incurable illness, so he controlled the Blue Flame at the last moment, preventing it from reaching Ra Sha.
Ra Sha remained silent, but the sand gold dissipated.
He wasn't one to admit defeat easily.
Batu immediately deactivated Blue Flame, panting heavily with a tired expression.
The fight didn't last long, but Batu utilized a considerable amount of abilities.
He not only used the power of the Triforce Sharingan but also employed the Flame Style with powerful Fire Jutsu, and his consecutive use of the Flying Thunder God Technique consumed a significant amount of chakra.
"Rin, I won!"
Despite his pale face, Batu's joy was evident as he excitedly waved to Haruno Rin and others in the audience.
He had won; he had defeated the Kazekage, one of the Five Shadows! Although Ra Sha didn't explicitly admit defeat, the outcome of the battle was clear to anyone with eyes.
"Batu, you're incredible."
Haruno Rin waved back, beaming with praise.
Defeating a Shadow at the age of fifteen was unprecedented in the Shinobi world, and Batu had made history.
Even Haruno Rin, who believed in Batu's potential, was surprised by this achievement.
"No...it's not...I really won..."
Asama was dumbfounded by this unbelievable scene, so shocked that he stuttered as he spoke.
He never expected such a result.
Chojiro defeated the Mizukage, and Asama was surprised, but due to their lack of familiarity, he didn't have a strong sense of it.
Batu was different.
They were friends who played together in the Ninja Academy and had less interaction after graduation, but whenever they had time, they would gather to chat, making them good friends.
Asama witnessed Batu's transformation from a dead-last to a genius and then gradually becoming a powerful ninja.
Even so, Asama still felt it was somewhat surreal. This was a Shadow, the pinnacle of the Shinobi world, and Batu had defeated him?
"How could I be having such a dream?"
Asama even thought he might not have woken up yet, but the real pain from slapping his own face made him realize this wasn't a dream; it was reality.
"Divine Power can be used like this."
Kakashi wasn't too surprised; he merely noted down the information Batu displayed during the battle.
This was the first time Batu used Divine Power to throw ninja tools.
Without saying, this move, combined with the Flying Thunder God Technique, was a deadly combination. Normally, one person couldn't throw that many kunai in one go.
"Among the Five Shadows, Ra Sha should be considered one of the weaker ones."
Shizuru made this judgment in his heart.
If one were to rank the Shadows, a Shadow like Mumu would undoubtedly be among the top-tier, only a step below the historical Ninja God.
As for Enma, Daimoku, and the Third Raikage, they were among the upper-tier Shadows. Even when compared with the numerous Shadows in history, they were still among the stronger ones.
As for Ra Sha, he was at the bottom among the current Five Shadows, with average strength.
"Batu actually won."
Enma, on the spectator stand, showed a look of astonishment.
He had high expectations for Batu and the others, but he only hoped they could defeat a few well-known strong opponents, not expecting them to defeat a Shadow.
Mumu's expression didn't change much; he just smiled slightly.
He was the person most familiar with Batu's strength.
As a ninja who simultaneously mastered Divine Power and the Flying Thunder God Technique, two powerful space-time ninjutsu, Batu had an incredibly high potential.
As long as Batu could steadily and firmly demonstrate his strength, Ra Sha had almost no chance of winning.
[Name: Uchiha Batu]
[Chakra: 78,000]
[Skills: Fire Nature Transformation (Mastery Level: 4,780/15,000), Yin Nature Transformation (Mastery Level: 3,630), Yang Nature Transformation (Proficiency Level: 1,100/3,000), Flame Style (Mastery Level: 6,000), Armored Color (Proficiency Level: 1,900), Flying Thunder God Technique (Proficiency Level: 1,300), Perceptive Sound (Proficiency Level: 900), Blue Flame (Proficiency Level: 450)...]
Compared to Ra Sha, although Batu's chakra was significantly lower, the quality of his skills was far superior, and Ra Sha couldn't catch up even if he tried.
Currently, Batu was only a step away from becoming a top-tier strong ninja, lacking only in chakra and skill proficiency.
Once Batu had more abundant chakra and improved his key skills to the Mastery Level, he would naturally become one of the strongest ninjas in the current Shinobi world.
Mumu opened the panel and took a look at Batu's life tasks.
[Main Goal: Become the Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village]
[Task Progress: 76.5%]
It had increased significantly, but there was still some distance to reach the 80% settlement.
Mumu estimated that this was also related to Kakashi and the others. Although Batu's performance was outstanding, it didn't give the feeling of being a top-tier strong ninja.
