"Lightning Release: Lightning Fang!"
He crossed the two blades and began charging power.
A massive amount of lightning gathered into the shape of a linear beam of light.
As Raiga Kurosuki swung with all his might—
The crackling lightning transformed into two serpents of lightning, sweeping across a wide area.
"Shadow Flash!"
Hyuga Sho flashed instantaneously without making a sound.
Watching the outcome of the two going back and forth.
Jurozaemon Biwa's expression gradually turned solemn.
"I never thought... this kid would really grow to the point of being compared with the Seven Ninja Swordsmen in just a few short years..."
Although the old would always be surpassed by the young.
But seeing this scene for himself, Jurozaemon Biwa still couldn't help but groan.
"What a... cruel world..."
"Jurozaemon, are you saying... the Konoha ninja Hyuga Sho wasn't this strong in the past?"
Pain glanced at Jurozaemon Biwa and asked.
According to the rumors outside, Hyuga Sho had played a part in defeating the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
But now... there seemed to be more to the story.
As Jurozaemon Biwa told Pain how the Seven Ninja Swordsmen had been crippled by Might Duy in just a few moves.
The battle between Hyuga Sho and Raiga Kurosuki had also reached its conclusion.
White Zetsu: "Black Zetsu, who do you think is stronger between these two?"
"Probably... Hyuga Sho."
Black Zetsu made his judgment.
"Although Raiga Kurosuki is one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, this Hyuga Sho has also displayed extremely high intelligence and strength. If we're talking about battle sense... Raiga Kurosuki won't be Hyuga Sho's match."
"Lightning Release! Banquet of Lightning!"
Sizzle!
Crackling lightning spread outward with Raiga Kurosuki at its center.
Compared with the lightning serpents at the beginning, this time... there were more than twelve bolts of lightning.
