Roar!!!!!
A violent energy storm raged across the barren plains, kicking up a sky-blasting torrent of dust, and ordinary people could not possibly stand their ground in such an environment.
The storm was not a natural weather phenomenon, but rather the result of a battle between two individuals.
They were none other than Killer Bee and Ōnoki.
The two of them could be said to belong to the top tier of shinobi in this era, or even the absolute ceiling within that top tier.
Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki's aged lower back was not yet as fragile as it would become years later, nor had his chakra receded with the aging of his body; even if this was not his peak strength, he was definitely much stronger than he had been during the Fourth Great Ninja War.
Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee was a Perfect Jinchuriki capable of coordinating with a tailed beast. Killer Bee's own swordsmanship could suppress Sasuke who had activated his Mangekyo, and the Eight-Tails was also the most powerful among the tailed beasts second only to the Nine-Tails.
Particle Style, which disintegrated all matter. Tailed Beast Ball, possessing astonishing destructive power.
The aftermath of the two's battle was terrifying, yet neither could immediately finish off the other; as long as Ōnoki did not recklessly drop down to engage Killer Bee in close combat, it would be very difficult for Ōnoki to suffer defeat.
Killer Bee, however, was trying his absolute hardest to stall Ōnoki, wishing to buy time for Fourth Raikage to evacuate.
Ōnoki had no desire to become entangled with Killer Bee, desperately wanting to strike down Fourth Raikage and thereby weaken the Cloud Village's strength.
Whenever Ōnoki looked at the other ninja villages, he would always shake his head and sigh at the withered state of talent
