A fierce battle amid lightning and thunder

The camp was bustling with activity at night.

First came a barrage of Explosive Tag, which terrified everyone, who thought the Uchiha army had attacked.

Then thunder roared, and the appearance of the Kirin instilled in every ninja a sense of fear of death.

Finally, Reto appeared, blasting the Kirin away with a single Electromagnetic Cannon, and then prepared to strike the enemy hidden in the shadows from hundreds of meters away.

In just a few minutes, everyone's emotions were like a rollercoaster ride.

"Still not dead?" Reto was somewhat surprised. Electromagnetic induction told him that there were violent energy fluctuations coming from the thick fog.

The intruder didn't look like it was dead at all.

"Interesting." He snapped his fingers lightly, and suddenly a large amount of black Iron Sand emerged from the ground, forming a pair of Iron Sand Wings behind him.

Electromagnetic fields allow him to float, but they don't make him agile enough, far less flexible and practical than these Iron Sand Wings.

As the man with the title of "strongest," the abilities of subsequent Kazekage evolved gradually based on him.

Iron Sand, Gold Dust, Sand —yet no one can control such a terrifying electromagnetic field anymore.

His Shinobi World Flight Ability was nothing more than a matter of lifting a finger.

For this reason alone, Reto is enough to make him famous among the Five Great Nations.

Below, the thick fog gradually dissipated, revealing a broken, dark gold skeleton before everyone's eyes.

Ugh! Kyosuke bent over and spat out a mouthful of blood, wiping his mouth as he slowly got up from his kneeling position.

The enemy's abilities are terrifying, and completely unknown.

If it hadn't directly activated Susanoo's First Form, he might have ended up joining the Sage of Six Paths.

To be honest, he still doesn't understand how the enemy located him so quickly.

Even Byakugan wouldn't have arrived this quickly.

Secondly, he had never seen that kind of bizarre Lightning Release Ninjutsu before, and he hadn't even gotten any information about it from the manga in his previous life.

Today's events have truly taught Kyosuke a vivid lesson.

Awakening the Mangekyō doesn't necessarily mean invincibility. The Shinobi World is filled with many strange and unknown abilities; if you're not careful, you might end up waiting for the Impure World Reincarnation.

The timeline is so early now, it's questionable whether anyone will be able to Impure World Reincarnation themselves in the future.

Born in hardship, die in comfort; he must be vigilant again, otherwise many things will not have a second chance.

"Very good, very good." Looking up at the man under the night sky, Kyosuke released the Cursed Seal, and a pair of Fleshy Wings resembling hands materialized.

With a few gentle flaps of his fan, he reached the same height as his enemy.

His eyes blazed with crimson light, and the Susanoo, which was about to dissipate, suddenly solidified, with flesh and veins appearing on its skeletal foundation, and finally covered with a layer of dark golden Chakra.

Susanoo- Second Form!

This form of Susanoo cannot fly yet, but that doesn't matter; it's enough that the caster can fly.

Magnet Release can control sand and Susanoo from beneath one's feet.

Uchiha Sasuke and Madara Uchiha had learned their lesson, and he couldn't repeat their mistakes.

Gazing at the dark golden giant soaring through the air before him, Reto's expression gradually turned serious. He realized that the attackers might be even more troublesome than he had anticipated.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to greet the other person first and probe their identity, "Who are you?"

"Uchiha Kyosuke." Faced with a powerful opponent who posed a threat to him, Kyosuke showed a degree of respect.

"... Kyosuke." The relevant information flashed through his mind instantly. As if understanding something, the man asked in a deep voice, "Kazunari died at your hands?"

"That woman, it's quite remarkable that you were able to identify her," Kyosuke admitted without hesitation.

Today, he not only wants to kill Watanabe Kaoru, but also wants to make many enemies pay the price for the Uchiha members who died in battle.

The enemy's decisive attitude surprised Reto slightly, and at the same time, he sensed the enemy's determination to kill him.

Unfortunately, with him around, no one can continue to run wild here.

Rumble!

Thunder roared, the earth shook, and the electromagnetic waves seemed to make the whole world tremble.

"Lightning Summoning!" The man raised his right hand, and several bolts of lightning frantically gathered in his palm, eventually forming a spear that shimmered with blue and white light.

Then he pointed his spear at the ground, and the vast expanse of soil instantly weathered away, with large amounts of yellow sand gathering and rising into the sky.

Magnet Release: Quicksand Current!

In the blink of an eye, Kyosuke's dark golden Susanoo was enveloped by a sea of sand that resembled surging waves.

Apart from the lightning-streaked dark clouds overhead, the rest of the area was covered in yellow sand, including directly below, where there were countless lurking, sharp Sand Blades.

Seeing this, Kyosuke flapped his wings frequently and charged at high speed toward the enemy shrouded in the sea of sand.

As for the terrifying sand dunes surrounding it, with their raging waves...

"Reversal!"

With the activation of his right Dojutsu, the passage between the two was instantly cleared.

Area-of-effect Ninjutsu often means that its destructive power is not concentrated enough.

Reversal is relatively easier; you only need to remove the sand and dust from one area.

To the man's astonishment, the sea of sand between them vanished into thin air, as if making way for Kyosuke's arrival.

The Yasaka Tomoe condensed, and three consecutive attacks all hit the enemy.

To be precise, it struck the Lightning Spear in the opponent's hand.

Reto retreated, Kyosuke pursued, and in the blink of an eye, the two escaped the area covered by the sand sea.

The people on the ground looked up at the sky as if watching a play.

Let alone ordinary ninjas, even the future Second Generation Kazekage, Shamon, would be unable to intervene in their battle.

He can't fly.

As for sand control capabilities, Reto has already proven that large areas of sand seas cannot affect Kyosuke at all.

"Damn it." Shamen slammed his fist on the tent next to him in anger, hating himself for not having thoroughly researched the human Puppet Technique sooner.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have had to stand by and watch Reto fight so desperately by himself.

In the distance, some defiant ninjas unleashed Ninjutsu into the sky, even attempting to control Puppet to ascend into the air.

Unfortunately, their height is simply not high enough, far from enough.

In the night sky streaked with lightning, Reto's gaze gradually turned serious.

He still can't understand why the sand sea disappeared for no reason.

The problem is that the relentlessly pressing enemy doesn't give him any time to think.

Left with no other choice, he had to risk the severe depletion of his Chakra and begin to continuously condense Electromagnetic Pulse to kill the enemy.

This thing is truly terrifying; even the Second Form of Susanoo couldn't withstand it with its own defenses.

However, it is incredibly fast and has a very strange, unavoidable characteristic.

Even with the illusory Susanoo Kusanagi Sword, Kyosuke was unable to get close to the enemy for a while.

"We can't fight a protracted war with him."

Prolonged use has placed a great burden on Kyosuke's body.

Susanoo combined with the Cursed Seal is practically like opening the Eight Gates Released Formation.

But he couldn't back down yet; killing just Watanabe Kaoru wasn't enough.

Only by eliminating this man can the Southern Border Army have a sufficient chance of defeating their opponent.

There's no other way.

He murmured something under his breath, and the dark golden Susanoo underwent another noticeable change.
