Battle
"You--!"
Omoi's eyes widened as if he had seen an utterly shameless villain. He was instantly enraged and drew his knife.
"Then I will kill you to avenge my fellow villagers!"
"Revenge?"
Sakura Haruno sneered, "Since you want to kill me to avenge the Kumogakure Ninja who died at my hands, then can I also destroy your village to avenge the Konoha delegation that was framed by the Kumogakure?!"
"Nonsense! Die!" Upon hearing this, Omoi's eyes turned bloodshot, and he charged forward fiercely!
Snap!
Unsurprisingly, the outcome was decided the moment they clashed.
Sakura Haruno knocked the long sword out of his hand with one palm, grabbed his throat with the other, and lifted him up.
"Didn't you want to kill me to avenge the Kumogakure Ninja?" She slowly increased the pressure on her hand, tightening her grip on the Kumogakure Ninja's neck, tilting her head to look at him, and calmly said, "Unfortunately... it seems you won't succeed."
Pooh!
Omoi was caught off guard and spat out a mouthful of blood, but Sakura Haruno nimbly dodged it.
His voice was hoarse as he said fiercely, "Don't be so smug. I will never surrender to the enemy... Even if I die, the other Kumogakure Ninja will capture you, chop you into mincemeat, and avenge me!"
The girl's expression turned cold, and she continued to exert force with her hand, uttering a chilling sentence from her lips.
"Then you can go to hell and wait there. Let's see if you can send me to hell before your Kumogakure Ninja Death Rays arrive!"
That was it; she showed no more mercy.
Crack.
Sakura Haruno's actions were swift and decisive.
The Raikage arrived just in time to see Omoi's head loll to the side, blood spurting from his mouth, and his Chakra senses suddenly vanish.
"You bastard!" Ai roared, pointing at Sakura Haruno, "You actually killed Omoi!"
Sakura Haruno looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"If you can brutally kill my comrades right in front of me, then what's so surprising about me killing a Kumogakure Ninja right in front of you?"
With that, she casually let go, and Omoi's body fell off the edge of the platform, like a tattered doll, bumping and swaying against the mountain wall a few times before silently plunging into the valley between the peaks.
The Raikage's face twitched.
The night wind was chilly, but what truly made him feel cold was the icy aura emanating from Sakura Haruno.
What exactly do you want?
Raikage hesitated for a moment, then asked in a deep voice.
"What do you want?" Sakura Haruno chuckled and shook her head. "Didn't I already tell you?"
You gave me two choices.
"But I chose to resist to the end."
Seeing the Raikage's face growing increasingly grim, she sneered and said, "Come on, Raikage."
"Didn't you prepare a lot for me? Do everything you can to defeat me, right here!"
The Raikage remained silent.
Fighting in the center of the village?
Unlike situations where there are few people in the wild.
Here, Sakura Haruno could casually unleash a powerful Ninjutsu, enough to take countless people with her to their deaths!
This is a classic case of being afraid to act for fear of breaking the law.
The Raikage couldn't think of a good solution for a moment, his face grave, and he could only silently confront Sakura Haruno.
Before long, the rest of the Kumogakure Ninja returned to the village and rushed to the battlefield.
"Your elite troops are back... Now, do you have the courage to fight me, Lord Raikage?" Sakura Haruno's lips curled into a cold smile. "Oh, by the way, there was someone who always seemed to pinpoint my location..."
"If we don't kill him, things will get really troublesome!"
The girl spoke coldly, her hands quickly Hand Seals.
Water Release: Wind Blade Torrent!
Sensing the Chakra fluctuations that filled him with dread forming in Sakura Haruno's palm, the Raikage's expression changed drastically, and he roared:
"Quick, get out of the way!"
The silver water line and the Raikage's urgent warning sounded simultaneously!
The former swept out a huge, straight fan shape from the air, severing everything in its path, including dozens or even hundreds of human limbs, in two without hesitation.
With a single blow, the elite Kumogakure Ninja force that had been charging forward was reduced by half!
Decapitated, limbs severed, countless severed limbs gushing blood lay on the ground.
It's like a human slaughterhouse has been opened.
Further away, the buildings cleaved by the Wind Blade Torrent were densely packed residential areas. How many people there were also unwittingly affected?
Hundreds, hundreds, or thousands?
Countless.
This is the first time since Sakura Haruno created the Water Gun Technique that it has caused such a terrible number of casualties.
This was the first time she had ever used this technique so ruthlessly against such a dense crowd!
This record could be broken at any moment tonight.
"You... you bastard...!"
Raikage's heart trembled; this strike felt as if it had cut into his heart, causing it to bleed.
However, Sakura Haruno didn't stop, because her target, Nozomi, had dodged the attack!
The girl's slender fingers twirled, the water line circled once, and then slashed at the third-ranking member of the Kumogakure Ninja.
Raikage were already bloodshot from witnessing the hellish scene. Seeing that Sakura Haruno was still not satisfied and was about to kill him, he roared, "You dare!"
Before he finished speaking, the lightning on his body surged, the brightness of the electric light increased greatly, and the power of the Lightning Release Chakra Mode was pushed to the limit by the Raikage in his anger, rushing towards Sakura Haruno like a bolt of lightning!
"Stop it!"
Enraged, Raikage moved with incredible speed, managing to deliver a punch before the Wind Blade Torrent could cleave Xi in two!
Bang!
The tangible sensation made Raikage pause for a moment.
That punch actually hit its mark.
Sakura Haruno is determined to kill Hijiri on the spot, even if it means taking a punch directly from the Raikage!
Even the tentacles of the Eight-Tails couldn't stop the incredibly sharp, high-speed water flow, and together with Xi, they were vertically sliced in two.
He collapsed to the ground, slumped over.
Further away, many more buildings collapsed, the number of casualties unknown.
Upon witnessing that horrific and gruesome scene, the Kumogakure Ninja fell silent, trembling with fear.
Sakura Haruno's determination to be ruthless to her enemies and even more ruthless to herself was quite awe-inspiring, even to a man like the Raikage.
Ai withdrew his fist.
Look down.
He had shattered half of Sakura Haruno's cheekbone and chin in profile.
The girl's distorted face and unwavering, resolute gaze combined to create a truly terrifying sight.
Raikage was stunned for a moment, and when he came to his senses, his heart was instantly filled with even more rage.
She actually dared to kill his most important subordinate right under his nose!
She actually dared to use such a terrifying Ninjutsu in the direction of the densely populated village!
"You... you deserve to die!" Ai said through gritted teeth.
We absolutely cannot let her use Ninjutsu again!
His fists clenched tightly, pulled back over his shoulders; the Lightning Release Armor, due to its intense heat, began to occasionally generate blinding arcs of electricity around his body.
Another punch landed!
This punch was fierce and powerful, like a thunder dragon raising its head, and it attacked Sakura Haruno with overwhelming force.
However, the girl blocked the punch with one hand!
"Your fist is heavy."
Sakura Haruno rested her left hand on her cheek; the wound on her face had long since healed, and she had regained her ability to speak.
On the girl's face, numerous intricate and magnificent purple fairy patterns had appeared without her noticing.
She raised her head, looked at Raikage, and said calmly.
"But... it's not enough."
The Raikage was getting impatient. He was afraid that Sakura Haruno would continue to use such a powerful Ninjutsu, so he chose to engage in close combat with Sakura Haruno.
But... can he win in close combat?
"Let me demonstrate for you..."
She clenched her right fist and placed it at her waist.
What is the correct force?
Sakura Haruno's fist struck out in a straight line without any fancy moves.
