Chapter 747: Day Tiger (A-Rank Liu Dehua!)
Chapter 747: Day Tiger (A-Rank Liu Dehua!)
Bang!
Tang Ping's punch forced Might Guy back.
"If this is all the strength you have..."
He didn't finish his sentence, but everyone knew what he was about to say.
Tang Ping didn't want to prolong the fight.
Although battling with Guy was an excellent opportunity, he had many other tasks to attend to, so he had to seize the time.
"The Seventh Gate, Thunder Gate, Open!!"
Guy entered the seventh gate of the Eight Gates.
Boom! Instantly, the green chakra around his body transformed into a blue aura.
His chakra, which was already comparable to a Kage-level, surged, becoming no weaker than that of the powerful Kages, and even posing a slight threat to Tang Ping.
With his thousand-fold refined physical prowess, Guy's options were somewhat limited, but his attacks were still incredibly dangerous.
Tang Ping dared not underestimate this 'Azure Fierce Beast.'
In the original story, Kakashi was a child prodigy, always more renowned than Guy. The latter had only displayed his full power once, but that single instance had shone brilliantly across the entire Shinobi World.
A mortal body rivaling the divine! There could be no higher praise.
Facing such a miracle-creating existence, Tang Ping dared not show any disrespect.
He wanted to force Guy to go all out immediately, not giving him time to slowly 'level up' through combat.
The longer the fight dragged on, the more familiar Guy would become with Tang Ping's abilities, and his battle intent would continue to grow. Tang Ping wouldn't make such a mistake.
He intended to capitalize on his informational advantage and use the 'First Encounter Kill' strategy to defeat Guy.
"Not bad!"
In his Sage Mode, Tang Ping's personality was completely unrestrained, as if he had to show off. He directly critiqued Guy from a superior stance.
"Leaf Tornado!"
Guy instantly closed the distance and attacked.
Bang!
Tang Ping blocked Guy's uppercut with Ghost Burn, but his lower kick landed.
This wasn't due to superior taijutsu, but rather...
Guy was too fast! After opening the Seventh Gate, not only did his chakra surge, but his speed and overall capabilities increased as well.
However, the strain on his body must be immense.
No wonder Gou E, his close friend, had also mastered the Seventh Gate but kept it hidden as his trump card due to its excessive consumption.
Now, Tang Ping was about to experience the power of the Thunder Gate.
Unexpectedly, Guy's talent for taijutsu was like a cheat code, even surpassing Gou E's by a significant margin.
In terms of effort and perseverance, Gou E was no less dedicated, and he had access to better resources than Guy.
Yet, despite this, Guy's Eight Gates Technique was still superior, leaving Gou E with no room for argument.
Boom!
As Tang Ping's body was about to hit the ground, he touched the ground with his right hand, and white pillars of fire erupted around him.
Flame Pillar Array! With Tang Ping's current strength and in Sage Mode, he could indeed use Fire Style without hand seals.
Guy's body, enveloped in blue chakra, was naturally unafraid of such an attack.
However, the impact of the fire pillars disrupted his combo, allowing Tang Ping to create some distance and adjust his state.
Thunder Gate!
Unexpectedly powerful!
"Guy, how much longer can your body endure?" Tang Ping asked provocatively.
Indeed, he was urging Guy to use his ultimate technique.
If Tang Ping gave Guy the chance to test him slowly, the latter might even figure out his underwear color.
Guy took a deep breath.
"Day Tiger! (Liu Dehua)"
A giant tiger made of air roared into existence.
The principle behind this technique was straightforward: compress the air with a concentrated, high-speed punch toward the target and then release it all at once.
However, a simple principle didn't mean easy execution.
Tang Ping couldn't even attempt it.
"Haha!"
He was a bit stunned.
Upon hearing the name of the technique, he recalled a bizarre transliteration from his previous life.
But now wasn't the time to laugh; he had to find a way to withstand this attack.
In the original story, Gui Jiao had fallen to this technique, and even the ocean had been drained, demonstrating its terrifying power.
However, this time, facing Tang Ping, the result would be different.
Tang Ping and Gui Jiao were two completely different individuals.
Whoosh!
Tang Ping's back sprouted dark golden wings, enveloping his body.
Then, he used Needle Zang, a secret technique acquired from Jiraiya, to enhance his Blazing Sun Wings, an extraordinary organ.
Just as Jiraiya could protect himself with his hair, Tang Ping could do the same.
Moreover, his Blazing Sun Wings naturally possessed this defensive capability.
While the Sun Furnace was his primary ability, it didn't mean he had no other tricks up his sleeve.
Defense!
This ability came in handy right now.
Roar!
An Air Tiger pounced, hitting Tang Ping with pinpoint precision.
Bang!
He was sent flying like a cannonball.
What a flight!
Although he could fly, this was his first time experiencing such treatment.
"..."
Uchiha Yaya, who was fighting Jiraiya, saw Tang Ping being blasted away and instinctively wanted to help, but she was stopped.
Tongue Slash!
Chima's tongue lashed out like a sharp blade.
Fukuzawa clapped his palms and used Frog Cry, an illusion technique.
The three-in-one Sage Mode was incredibly difficult to deal with, especially without the advantage of a first encounter or a narrative kill bonus.
Despite Uchiha Yaya's superior strength, Jiraiya managed to hold her back.
Jiraiya, being the more experienced fighter, could keep her at bay and was confident in turning the tables.
Not far away, Tsunade was getting pummeled by Hyuga Tsukimi.
The Gentle Fist style might be weak against large targets or group attacks.
But it had a special advantage in one-on-one combat.
Coupled with Tsunade's Iron Fist style, she was naturally countered by the Gentle Fist.
She was frustrated, pounding the ground around her to no avail, unable to reach her opponent.
"Aren't you worried about that kid?"
Tsunade started trash-talking.
If she could shake her opponent's emotions, she might have a chance to win.
In a ninja battle, everything was fair game, including psychological tactics.
"I never worry about Tang Ping!"
Hyuga Tsukimi replied 'gently'.
Yes, she maintained her persona, hiding her cruel and ruthless side.
"Hmph!"
Tsunade scoffed and intensified her attacks.
Meanwhile, the Skyguard Tower's ninja forces were wiping out the remaining Allied Ninja forces.
The power disparity was vast, and with their numerical advantage, the battle was quickly decided.
The key was the Six-Point Sealing Formation!
The ninja's greatest asset, mobility, was completely nullified.
Frustration!
This was likely the shared sentiment of all who fell to the Skyguard Tower's forces.
Without the barrier, escaping would have been easier.
Outmatched and unable to flee, they were trapped.
After clearing the enemies, the Skyguard Tower's ninja didn't assist but instead retreated to the barrier's edge.
Even if they were willing to be cannon fodder, they needed orders from their leaders; otherwise, they'd only get in the way.
Being a liability to one's team was a trait rarely seen in true ninjas, except for protagonists.
Oh, right!
Bunta, Ten Thousand Serpents, and Koushi had also disappeared within the barrier, just like Mutsuki.
The remaining toads and snakes, however, were slaughtered.
Despite their large sizes, the toads and snakes were no match for the Skyguard Tower's ninjas, who used Explosive Tags without hesitation.
It was clear that the Skyguard Tower's forces had no regard for martial honor and simply overwhelmed their opponents with resources.
A fair fight would have been impossible to conclude so swiftly.
At this moment, only three battles remained within the barrier.
The most captivating one was between Tang Ping and Might Guy.
"Cough, cough!" Tang Ping slowly got up, assessed his injuries, and exclaimed, "Is that all?!"
Might Guy wasn't angered by Tang Ping's taunt; instead, he frowned.
He knew that his last attack was the strongest he could muster in his Thunder Gate state.
Yet, Tang Ping was only slightly disheveled and not even injured.
In other words... it was time.
