Raikage vs. Shunren? (Seeking first subscription)

"As long as we take down the Raikage, the greatest credit will go to our Uchiha Clan!"

The brave and combative Uchiha clan had long wanted to attack the Raikage, but due to their plans, they couldn't easily make a move. However, now that they saw the Raikage injured, they decisively launched their attack!

Fire Style: Great Dragon Fire Technique!

When it does strike, it's with unparalleled power—a high-level Fire Style!

Known as the clan that controls fire, the Fire Style used by the Elite Jonin of the Uchiha are naturally extraordinary.

In an instant, several raging fire dragons surged up, making the air on the battlefield instantly hot and dry.

"As expected of the Uchiha Clan, this Fire Style not only incorporates nature transformation but also form transformation," Kitsuchi exclaimed in admiration, though for some reason, there seemed to be a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"Madness!"

Shunren couldn't help but curse under his breath. Sometimes, what the eyes see isn't necessarily the truth. Didn't they understand such a simple principle as "all's fair in war"?

Although his Sharingan also saw the Chakra beneath the Raikage's feet, making him appear injured, a closer look with his Mind's Eye revealed that the Raikage's ferocious Chakra hadn't diminished at all. This was clearly a deliberate act of feigning a minor injury to lure them into a trap.

The Uchiha fell into the trap, but they weren't the only ones caught in it. The Hozuki Clan from the Mist Ninja Village also couldn't hold back and made their move. The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist tried to stop them, but it was too late.

Using their bodily fluids to expand, the Hozuki Clan members, wielding their suddenly enormous arms, charged towards the Raikage.

"Water Release: Great Water Arm Technique!"

A flash of lightning, and the terrifying spear reappeared!

"Boom!"

As expected, the Raikage's thunderous counterattack cleaved through the Uchiha clan's high-level Fire Style with overwhelming force, simultaneously sending anyone who got close flying.

"Pfft~" It burst open and became a splash of water.

"Ha! I've already told you, physical attacks are useless against our Hozuki Clan!"

Although the Raikage's sudden counterattack startled the Hozuki Clan, they were not afraid of physical attacks because of their own Kekkei Genkai.

However, the Raikage roared in response, "I am the Raikage!"

"Zzzzz~" The violent Lightning Release shockwave instantly paralyzed the Hozuki Clan members, preventing them from properly liquefying, and they were immediately knocked down.

"Ah, no!" The Uchiha and the others realized they had been tricked and immediately retreated.

However, how could the Raikage let the fish that had taken the bait escape so easily?

Lightning Release Body Flicker Technique!

He flashed to the front of the Uchiha at incredible speed.

The Uchiha squad that was dispatched, though small in number, consisted of highly skilled individuals, almost all of whom possessed the Sharingan, though most had only Futatsudomoe, with only a few having Mitsudomoe.

Sharingan!

Chakra was frantically channeled into his eyes as the Uchiha and others tried to capture the Raikage's movements.

"How could Sharingan see through my attack?" The Raikage smiled contemptuously, then threw a punch at the Uchiha and the others in front of him without any fancy moves.

"Impossible! I can't see him at all!"

Even the Sharingan couldn't see the extreme speed, and the Uchiha and others looked terrified; the outcome was self-evident.

Raikage thought to himself: The Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan is too troublesome. As long as their "eyes" are there, I will have to activate my body to a high degree. Let's take this opportunity to wipe them out in one fell swoop!

It was with this in mind that the Raikage deliberately feigned a minor injury to lure the Uchiha into attacking.

Kitsuchi narrowed his eyes, his gaze fixed on the Raikage's right hand, which had now grown into three fingers. He muttered to himself, "So that's how it is. He's already using the Three-Finger Nukite? In that case, the Uchiha..."

The Raikage's ultimate technique, Hell Stab, increases in power as fewer fingers are thrust into it!

With four fingers, the Raikage could break through the Earth Style Wall defense set up by more than twenty people at the same time with a single blow; with three fingers, the power was enough to send a hundred ninjas flying with a single strike!

The Uchiha and their group suffered heavy casualties from being hit head-on by the Raikage's ferocious attack. Seven of them had their bodies pierced through on the spot, and the remaining dozen or so also suffered injuries of varying degrees.

However, the Raikage's idea was to exterminate the Uchiha clan!

Just then, Raikage suddenly felt a dagger flying towards him from the side. He instinctively swatted the dagger away, his eyes flashing coldly, "This attack..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Raikage immediately raised his arm above his head to block.

Shunpo!

In an instant, Shunren appeared on the flying dagger, gripping the Heavy Black Iron Ruler tightly with both hands, and slashed straight down at Raikage, "Konoha Style: May Rain Slash!"

"Clang!"

Raikage used his bare arms to withstand Shunren's powerful blow, his feet sinking slightly into the ground.

"You're the guy who threw the sword at me earlier, aren't you? You're quite remarkable for your young age, and your strength is impressive too!" With that, Raikage slapped the weapon out of Shunren's hand!

After being sent flying, the Heavy Black Iron Ruler left an arc in the air before crashing into the ground, creating a huge crater. Those around were speechless, wondering just how heavy this weapon was! Could such a cumbersome weapon be wielded so easily?

After being knocked away by the attack, Shunren did not launch another attack. Instead, he retreated, using the Body Flicker Technique to move with astonishing speed. In just a few blinks, he took away all the fallen Uchiha members.

"How ruthless! I've been keeping an eye on you all along!" Seeing that Shunren had no intention of confronting him directly, Raikage knew that such a skilled opponent had to be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise, it would be fatal once his power waned!

"Bang!" Raikage then transformed into a cannonball, surging towards Shunren at an astonishing speed!

When Kitsuchi and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist saw the Raikage target Shunren, they decisively and tacitly stopped their attack, which naturally made them gloat.

The figure of Raikage appeared before Shunren in an instant, but the latter seemed to have no reaction at all, simply standing there motionless.

"Huh?!" Raikage's fist passed right through Shunren's figure, but he didn't feel it.

"Afterimage? You're the only one besides Kagami Uchiha who could dodge my extreme speed when we fought!" Raikage turned around and saw Shunren's figure had appeared on the other side at some point.

Shunren frowned deeply; he didn't want to fight Raikage so soon. He said calmly, "Then I'll just have to make you back down first!"

With a flick of his hand, he unleashed, "Yin Release: Projection!"
