Killer B
The wind howled through the canyon, stirring up a light dust cloud. Yemo and the Kumo Ninja chasing behind him stood facing each other, their seemingly calm demeanor concealing a turbulent clash of their auras.
Yemo's gaze narrowed slightly as he looked at the other person. Just then, the other person also looked at him, and their eyes met in the void, sparking invisible Kakkō.
Only then did Yemo see clearly the person who had been chasing him for most of the day; he was a bit older than him.
Yemo didn't know the guy's identity, but the fact that the guy had been able to chase him for so long and the powerful aura he exuded was enough to show that the guy in front of him was very strong. Moreover, the guy was very young and was probably a genius in Kumogakure.
"I never expected that the one who crossed the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Lightning and even killed Daruka would be a brat even younger than me," the Kumo Ninja in surprise upon seeing Yemo's appearance.
Previously, when the two were chasing each other, they were far apart and could barely see each other's shadows. Now, seeing that the person they had been chasing for so long was even smaller than themselves, the Kumo Ninja was naturally very surprised.
With a light snort, the Kumo Ninja continued, "My Kumogakure. To be able to kill Killer B of Jonin at such a young age, you must be no ordinary person in Konoha. I don't kill nameless nobodies. State your name."
"Killer B!"
Upon hearing the other party reveal his name, Yemo instinctively exclaimed in surprise, staring incredulously at the Kumo Ninja in front of him who wasn't much older than himself—no, Killer B.
"No way! "Yemo exclaimed inwardly. The guy who had been chasing him for so long was actually Killer B, the future Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.
When Yemo came to Hokage, he thought that he might meet all the characters in Hokage in the future, not to mention the Tailed Beast. Yemo also wanted such a bug, but he did not expect that his meeting with Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Killer B be so soon, and under such circumstances.
Come to think of it, before the Third Shinobi World War, there should have been two extremely talented geniuses in Kumogakure at that age: one was the future Fourth Raikage, and the other was the future Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Killer B.
Scratching his head, Killer B looked at Yemo with a puzzled expression. Did he know this guy? In Killer B's memory, he didn't seem to have ever seen such a person in Konoha.
However, the other party's shout upon hearing his name and the familiarity in his tone made Killer B feel that he knew him, and was very familiar with him.
After a brief moment of shock, Yemo regained his composure, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said, "Yemo Uzumaki, Konoha Ninja!"
"Yemo Uzumaki, you are Yemo Uzumaki!" Killer B exclaimed in surprise, staring at Yemo with wide eyes, clearly still in disbelief.
Do you know me?
Yemo pointed to himself, looking completely bewildered, and asked, "Am I that famous now? Even Killer B knows my name."
But the next second, Killer B into laughter, shouting, "I know, how could I not know? My teacher has been talking about you all along. It's like finding a way out of a dead end, only to find a new path opening up before me. I never expected to run into you here."
"Your teacher was talking about me?" Yemo felt completely bewildered by Killer B. What was all this about? One minute he was so shocked, the next he was so excited, and he even mentioned his teacher.
Killer B's teacher... Don't be ridiculous. There's no mention of who Killer B's teacher is in Hokage, let alone me. I don't even know who he is, let alone meet him. But for some reason, after hearing what Killer B said later, Yemo had a very bad feeling.
It's like I'm caught in some huge whirlpool, no, I should say I've been in a whirlpool for a long time, but I just don't know it yet.
Seeing Yemo's puzzled look, Killer B smiled and explained, "It seems you don't know who my teacher is. Well then, I'll tell you. My teacher is Kumogakure Blue B."
"So it was him!"
Yemo suddenly realized that it was actually the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Blue B. Actually, thinking about it, it made sense. Killer B was the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki in the future, Blue B was Killer B's teacher. It wasn't something that was hard to accept.
However, something that really intrigued Yemo was why Blue B talking about him. He had no connection with Blue B, except that he had almost been killed by Blue B his Partial Tailed Beast Transformation in the forest near Konoha a few days ago. No matter how Yemo thought about it, he couldn't understand why a high-ranking Kumo Ninja, Blue B, would be talking about a little brat like him.
At this moment, Killer B raised his fist and said, "Surrender, Yemo Uzumaki. Although I don't know how a Genin like you managed to defeat Daruka, you are definitely no match for me. Rather than suffer the pain of being captured by me, you might as well come back with me."
In response to Killer B's words, Yemo chuckled and said, "That won't do. I'm naturally tough, and the word 'surrender' doesn't exist in my dictionary. It's impossible to take me back unless you bring back my corpse. Konoha only has ninjas who die in battle, not weaklings who surrender."
"Then let's have a good fight," Yemo's answer was exactly what Killer B expected. "Blue B said you can't be underestimated, and you even know Wood Release. Let me see what you're made of today."
As soon as he finished speaking, Killer B stomped his feet, and a loud bang was heard on the ground. It was as if Explosive Tag had been detonated under Killer B's feet, and Killer B's figure had already shot out and instantly attacked Yemo, just like a streak of azure lightning.
Killer B was incredibly fast, especially when using the Lightning Release Chakra Mode Lightning Body Flicker Technique in Lightning Release Chakra Mode. Yemo only saw a flash of blue light before Killer B appeared in front of Yemo. Chakra Killer B raised his fist, covered in Lightning Release, and slammed it straight at Yemo's head. The fist was accompanied by a strong wind, and the air rippled with the sound of wind and thunder.
Fortunately, Yemo reacted quickly. Although he couldn't dodge Killer B's punch, he still crossed his hands in front of him to block it.
Thud...
A muffled thud echoed through the void, reaching the ears of both Yemo and Killer B. Yemo immediately felt a tremendous force surge towards him, slamming his crossed hands against his chest with a powerful impact, like a massive boulder crashing into his chest.
Under this immense force, Yemo was unable to resist at all. His body lost control and he kept retreating. He took more than ten steps back before finally stopping his backward movement with a thud as Yemo feet slammed heavily onto the ground.
The ground beneath Yemo's feet sank several tens of centimeters, cracks spreading like a spider web. The force of the impact alone was so strong; one can only imagine how much power Yemo's body could withstand.
At this moment, Yemo's hands were in excruciating pain. The intense pain constantly stimulated Yemo's brain. Although he could not see through things like the Byakugan, Yemo could clearly feel that the bones in his hands were probably cracked. Moreover, his hands were numb and tingly, and he had no feeling at all. The power of the Lightning Release here had damaged Yemo's cells.
Such terrifying power from a single punch—this is the true power of Cloud Village's taijutsu. Compared to that, Karuda is far inferior to Killer Bee.
If an ordinary person were hit by Killer B's punch, they would probably have been blown to pieces long ago. Yemo only managed to block it because of the Sage Body physique of the Uzumaki Clan.
His hands were severely injured, but with the Yin-Yang Release and the Sage Body of Yemo, the injuries were almost completely healed in an instant.
"I didn't expect you to actually block it," Killer B said, slightly surprised. He had used all his strength in that punch, holding nothing back. "It seems Blue B was right, you are indeed quite formidable. But can you withstand my next punch?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Killer B both feet, using the impact from the ground to Killer B threw a punch, a punch mixed with lightning and a hurricane that came crashing down.
