The four had been locked in battle in the arena for a long time. Sasuke, Gaara, and Naruto were eliminated one after another.
In the end, only Kisame and Hikari remained.
"Miss Hikari, now that it's just the two of us, how about we decide the winner with one final move?"
Hikari nodded, indicating that she had no objection. She had been thinking the same thing; there was no point in dragging this out any longer.
Kisame drew upon every last bit of Chakra in his body and formed hand seals. Towering waves surged up beneath him once more, and hundreds upon thousands of shark-like dragons roughly a meter long rode the tide forward. The water dragons formed from Chakra and the summoned shark dragons all charged at Hikari!
"Thousand Shark Devour!"
Seeing this, Hashirama could not help but sigh.
"A Water Release ninjutsu on this scale is already no weaker than Tobirama's Water Release. That guy's Chakra reserves are truly terrifying."
"Unfortunately, his use of Water Release and control over his Chakra are still far too weak. Its power is nowhere near Tobirama's."
