Overwhelming Force

"Senior Katsuki, you truly have impressive skills. Even the ninja tools left behind by the Sage of Six Paths couldn't subdue you."

The Deva Path Clone's expression was stiff, and he was practically cursing inwardly. If he could, he really didn't want to fight Katsuki. A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow; Katsuki's illustrious reputation, built up over decades, was not fake. Even Senju Zen himself wouldn't dare say he was absolutely certain of victory.

Especially after Katsuki easily killed Genso, he was even less willing to get entangled with Katsuki. So when the Amber Purifying Pot took Katsuki away, he felt a great sense of relief.

In the end, it was all for nothing.

Well, you can't say that. In any case, we got the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, so it wasn't a complete loss.

However, we still have to face the challenge of the natural disaster in Konoha, a major obstacle to the Moon Eye Plan.

The Heavenly Dao was troubled, fearing that Katsuki would interfere with the Nine-Tails' extraction process. After all, the main body was not far away, and the distance between the Six Paths Clone and the main body was limited. With Katsuki's perception ability, there was a high probability that she could detect the location of the main body, even if a barrier was set up where the main body was located.

But it's better to be safe than sorry!

Katsuki was unaware of the Heavenly Dao's worries; he focused his attention on Uchiha Genso, his brows furrowed.

He had forgotten about this, but unexpectedly, this guy was resurrected again. Doesn't that mean that the Ninjutsu that manipulates natural disasters can be used again? His heart sank slightly, and he immediately closed his eyes and used Mind's Eye of the Kagura to investigate the situation, completely disregarding Uchiha Genso and the Six Paths Clone.

Tendou's face immediately darkened, Uchiha Genso's eyebrows also stood on end.

Standing there so unguarded in front of them, with her eyes closed—was this a provocation?

"The Asura Path".

The Heavenly Dao gave a low shout, and the Asura Path, who had been blown away by the storm generated by the explosion of the Amber Purifying Pot, had already returned.

Hell Stab: One-Finger Nukite.

The Asura Path began its charge, heading straight for Katsuki.

The Six Paths Clone each possess different techniques, but when it comes to killing techniques, none can surpass the One-Finger Nukite. As the Third Raikage's signature move, its penetrating power is undoubtedly the best in the Shinobi World; virtually nothing can withstand the power of this single finger strike.

The Asura Path charged at incredible speed, appearing in front of Katsuki in the blink of an eye. The azure lightning on his right index finger was incomparably sharp, tearing through the air with a piercing crack as it stabbed fiercely into Katsuki's chest.

Just then, the Katsuki flowing around Chakra like clouds suddenly condensed into six ferocious-looking monsters, each only a dozen centimeters tall, flapping their arms and legs and crashing heavily into Asura Path's right arm. The force was so great that Asura Path was astonished, One-Finger Nukite instantly deflected the attack, grazing Katsuki's hair as it flew away.

"Bang!!"

With a deafening roar, Katsuki's right fist slammed into Asura Path's chest. Katsuki had opened his eyes at some point, a murderous smile playing on his lips.

Immortal techniques, Boiling Release, Unrivaled Super Strength.

Having captured the Five-Tails for fifteen years, Katsuki has extracted many things from it, such as the Five-Tails' Boiling Release Kekkei Genkai and a series of techniques for using Boiling Release. A small portion of the Five-Tails 'Chakra is still preserved in his body. Using this Chakra as a seed, he can unleash the Boiling Release Kekkei Genkai. Combined with Senjutsu, it immediately becomes a super killing move.

Boiling Release has both internal and external applications. The Five-Tails is proficient in the internal application, which enhances its own power, making its strength and close combat ability among the Tailed Beast.

This move Unrivaled Super Strength, allows the user to unleash their full power in an instant, pushing their strength to its limit before unleashing it with overwhelming force.

White steam escaped from Katsuki's pores. Katsuki opened her mouth and slowly exhaled. As she exhaled, the Asura Path, which had just endured a fierce attack, was filled with astonishment. Instinctively, it opened its mouth wide, and a large hole exploded behind it. A small amount of blood and internal organs mixed with the mechanical structure flew out.

"Your Strongest Spear truly lives up to its name, but you still need to train your Strongest Shield properly!" Katsuki grabbed Asura Path's right arm with her left hand, preventing him from being thrown away by the force of the punch.

He wouldn't simply return the Asura Path to the Heavenly Path. As long as the Hell Path remains intact, even if these clones are dismantled, they can be perfectly repaired by collecting the remains. He has no desire to engage in endless back-and-forth battles with these clones. Destroying the clones and then dealing with the main body is the correct approach.

He wasn't using Mind's Eye of the Kagura to investigate; he was genuinely worried about the village. After investigating, he found the village was safe and sound. The Impure World Reincarnation creatures hadn't gained any advantage against Minato, Nawaki, and the others. Just as he was finally able to relax, the Asura Path delivered itself to his doorstep.

How could I possibly let such a great opportunity slip by?

He immediately unleashed a powerful attack on the Asura Path, crippling it completely.

Come on, let's continue.

Dragging the broken Asura Path, Katsuki provocatively beckoned to Uchiha Genso and the remaining five clones with her right index finger.

Shinra Tensei.

The answer from Heaven was simple and direct: at present, there was no other choice but to fight.

The repulsive cannonballs were launched, invisible and undetectable, yet incredibly fast; generally speaking, this attack was impossible to defend against.

However, that's only in general terms; Katsuki is not one of them.

Immortal magic, Single Shield.

Katsuki stood still, raising her hand to erect a pale blue, semi-transparent round shield. A faint halo flowed across the shield, which was made of pure, highly concentrated Senjutsu Chakra condensed and materialized. The huge round shield completely concealed Katsuki's figure.

The repulsive force struck the shield, causing the pale blue Chakra shield to visibly dent inwards.

"Hmm! This level of Shinra Tensei is not enough to break my Single Shield." Katsuki said calmly, and sure enough, the next moment, the dented shield suddenly rebounded, completely annihilating all the repulsive force.

"Roar!!"

With a deafening roar, a rhinoceros as majestic as a small mountain lowered its head, raised its enormous horn, and charged forward like a heavy tank, its small wings flapping behind it. It truly rampaged through the land, its heavy hooves shattering the ground and leaving devastation in its wake.

"Winged rhinoceroses are really ugly."

Katsuki shook her head and commented, her hands forming hand Hand Seals like a phantom, her chest suddenly bulging, and she opened her mouth to exhale a thick, gray mist that rapidly drifted forward, swirling directly into the charging rhinoceros.

Immortal Techniques, Boiling Release, Art of the Boiling Mist.

Derived from the Third Mizukage's Boiling Release Kekkei Genkai, combined with the Five-Tails' Boiling Release, and then infused with Senjutsu Chakra, it became Katsuki's technique.

In terms of effectiveness, it's very good.

The rhinoceros, as large as a small mountain, staggered out of the acid mist. Large areas of its skin and flesh had been eroded and melted away by the acid mist, revealing its stark white skeleton and thick blood vessels. In this state, it was clear that it could not survive.

Sure enough, after taking only a couple of steps out of the acidic mist, the rhinoceros collapsed to the ground, turning into a mountain of flesh that was still melting away. The smell was extremely unpleasant. (To be continued)
