Chapter 815: The Ultimate Weapon!
Chapter 815: The Ultimate Weapon!
Whoosh!
A torrent of kunai 'ammunition' was fired.
Hiss! Hiss!
Two roaring electromagnetic cannons unleashed their might, tearing through the air and leaving behind a trail of wind, creating a dazzling yet deadly display.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Finally, the thirty-six mortars unleashed their payload, each explosive round capable of covering a vast area upon detonation.
This triple-layered long-range attack boasted both quantity and quality.
Even a hidden ninja village could be annihilated in an instant.
And this was just the beginning.
As the space expanded, Tian Tian's power would continue to grow.
Itachi, on the other hand, was about to experience the full force of this onslaught.
A bone-chilling sense of danger jolted Itachi awake just before the barrage, triggering his instinctive use of the ultimate defensive measure.
Susanoo!
A crimson Susanoo emerged, instantly entering its third stage.
This meant the appearance of the red Tengu armor, along with a massive mirror-like shield in its left hand.
Yata no Kagami!
This was the Great Filial Son's external spiritual weapon.
With the Totsuka Sword in its left hand and Yata no Kagami in its right, it was an invincible combination of offense and defense.
No wonder countless people referred to the Great Filial Son as 'Itachi God'. This setup was truly formidable.
In the original storyline, when Orochimaru transformed into the eight-headed serpent, Yata no Kagami effortlessly blocked it without the slightest disturbance.
However, facing Tian Tian's full barrage, the outcome was uncertain.
First came the electromagnetic cannons.
Driven by sheer terror, two metal bullets, faster than sound, were successfully deflected.
Though not without effect, as Yata no Kagami trembled slightly.
It was like tossing a pebble into a lake.
Then came the relentless kunai assault, easily blocked, only to slowly fall to the ground.
Finally, the thirty-six explosive rounds.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The earth-shattering explosions and raging winds engulfed everything.
Even Tian Tian herself was left in a dire state.
The aftermath of the explosions did not discriminate between friend and foe.
When the barrage began, Itachi, momentarily stunned by the dissipation of his genjutsu, had allowed the distance between them to widen to over a hundred meters.
But even at this distance, they were still within the killing range of the metal storm.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Tian Tian, immediately after the barrage, huddled behind a massive metal shield she had just summoned.
With her spatial abilities, it was only natural that she would have defensive measures, but she couldn't yet achieve 'instant summoning'.
Of course, the limitations of her chakra and stamina also prevented her from employing many tactical options.
Attacking required no expenditure of chakra or stamina, as long as there was ammunition.
However, activating her innate abilities did come at a cost, which was her greatest weakness.
If she were to transfer weapons from her innate space to reality, there would be no chakra or stamina consumption, but loading and firing them couldn't be as automated as in her innate space.
"Oh no!"
Tian Tian suddenly felt weightless, and her small face fell.
Airship!
It was torn apart by countless metal fragments.
The quality of this hand-crafted airship was beyond question.
Even with several holes, it remained fully functional.
But the metal storm created by dozens of explosive rounds shredded everything in the surrounding area.
While Tian Tian was protected by a large and sturdy shield, the airship's airbags had no such defense.
Instantly, countless fine tears appeared, leading to its 'crash'.
This served as a lesson.
Previously, Tian Tian had never anticipated such a scenario.
Without experiencing it firsthand, it was impossible to foresee.
Even she, over a hundred meters away, suffered such misfortune; the target of the attack fared even worse.
As the flames dissipated!
Itachi, like a broken-winged crow, plummeted towards the sea, his descent accompanied by a trail of blood.
A single round of concentrated fire allowed him to experience the full might of a 'saturation strike' from long-range artillery.
Even Yata no Kagami couldn't save him.
Indeed, this level of attack couldn't destroy the spiritual weapon, but the explosive rounds didn't detonate upon hitting Yata no Kagami. Instead, they exploded around Susanoo, engulfing it.
Yata no Kagami could only block frontal attacks; the other explosive rounds naturally hit Susanoo.
Itachi's eye power had recently subjugated the Three-Tails and then used Tsukuyomi, leaving him with barely enough strength to maintain Yata no Kagami. Susanoo, lacking sufficient eye power to sustain it, crumbled instantly.
It wasn't Susanoo that crumbled, but Itachi himself.
Without Susanoo's protection, if not for his quick reaction, he might have been torn to shreds, not just severely injured.
Plop!
Itachi's body fell into the seawater, not even having the strength to adjust his posture as he landed, indicating the severity of his injuries.
However, the outcome of the battle stunned everyone, friend and foe alike.
Even Kisame, who had always seen Itachi as a calm and formidable opponent, never showing a single weakness, was shocked to see him in such a dire state.
As for Sasuke, his emotions were mixed.
This was something he had dreamed of, as a avenger, killing the man who had been used as a tool to annihilate his clan was his mission.
But he was well aware of Itachi's strength, which was why he had always restrained his desire for revenge.
Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that Itachi would be defeated, let alone severely injured, by TenTen, a girl he had never paid much attention to.
As for Neji, Kiba, and Shino, they were equally surprised.
They had never expected TenTen to be this powerful.
After all, Itachi was the infamous 'Clan Annihilator', an S-class rogue ninja of the Akatsuki organization!
"Be careful!" Sakura's warning snapped everyone out of their stupor.
At that moment, a giant light sphere with alternating purple and black colors was forming at the mouth of the Three-Tails.
A Tailed Beast Ball! And it was the complete version, not the weakened one used by Jinchuuriki.
"This..."
"It's over!"
...
Both sides, allies and enemies alike, had the same thought.
At such close range, no one could escape.
Even Sasuke had never anticipated such a turn of events.
The Three-Tails... had gone out of control.
No, it wasn't out of control. It was because Itachi, severely injured, didn't have the strength to command it, so the Three-Tails was acting on its own and attacking.
The Tailed Beast Ball was its most powerful weapon.
Itachi had refrained from using this attack earlier because its power was so overwhelming that it could easily cause collateral damage.
A fully unleashed Tailed Beast had truly devastating destructive power.
Even Kujira, who had just received Itachi underwater, was ready to flee at the first opportunity.
"This is bad!" TenTen looked at the growing Tailed Beast Ball in the distance and knew that escape was no longer an option. Even the Electromagnetic Cannon might not be able to destroy it. Her eyes flashed with determination.
Pop! The space in front of her rippled like water, and a slender silver cannon barrel appeared.
[Destroyer!]
That was the name of the weapon.
Technically, it wasn't impressive, not even close to the power of the Roaring Electromagnetic Cannon.
What made it special was its 'ammunition'.
It was handmade by Tang Ping, and there were fewer than ten rounds.
You heard that right; the ammunition supply was pitifully small.
It wasn't a technical issue.
Technically, manufacturing this ammunition wasn't difficult.
The key was the material! Meteorite!
Or, to be more precise, uranium.
Yes, it was Tang Ping's 'Shattered Star Spear'.
However, compared to Tang Ping's ability to use it freely and decide the quantity himself, TenTen's situation was much more complicated.
Not only did she need the special Destroyer Electromagnetic Cannon to fire it, but she also had to process the uranium into ammunition beforehand.
Purification!
With technological advancements, the same amount of material now yielded exponentially increased power.
The ammunition was spear-shaped, with a core of purified uranium. It would detonate upon hitting the target or when flight data was set.
If ninjutsu wasn't enough, use ninjutsu tools! With this Destroyer Electromagnetic Cannon and TenTen's data, she could achieve the effect of the Shattered Star Spear.
This was the ultimate weapon Tang Ping had prepared for TenTen.
Concerned about its overwhelming power, he had divided the amount he used in one shot into ten parts and created ten Shattered Star Spears.
Before TenTen's mission, he asked her to find an opportunity to test its power.
Now was the perfect chance.
Hitting a ninja with this weapon was almost impossible.
But it was different with a Tailed Beast.
So, TenTen didn't need to worry about running out of ammunition.
Zzzz! The sound of electrical surges filled the air.
A half-meter-long, beautifully engraved metal spear-like ammunition was fired.
It pierced through the air, leaving a thin wind trail, even smaller than those finger-sized metal bullets.
This was determined by the shape of the ammunition; it didn't mean that larger ammunition had less power.
Just as the Tailed Beast Ball was completed, the Shattered Star Spear arrived and collided head-on with the terrifying attack.
