Boom!
With a deafening crash, an entire mountain came tumbling down!
Amid the billowing dust, a figure charged straight ahead. Whether it was flying rubble or collapsing cliffs, the figure neither dodged nor slowed, smashing right through everything. The hard rocks were as fragile as tofu before him.
Watching the figure race toward her, Ryūsetsuna let out a soft sigh. "Is this where it ends?"
There was no doubt that the figure charging at Ryūsetsuna was the Fourth Raikage, under the control of the Overlord of Fear.
After abandoning Node 8, Ryūsetsuna and Chiyo had used themselves as bait, luring the Fourth Raikage, who had attacked the node, into pursuing them.
The two of them were the weakest among all the members guarding the nodes, while the Fourth Raikage attacking Node 8 was one of the strongest puppet ninja whose minds had been corrupted by the Overlord of Fear. The gap between their strength was enormous.
It wasn't long before Chiyo was gravely wounded by the Fourth Raikage and lost consciousness.
Ryūsetsuna was left with no choice but to use the rugged terrain of the mountains to keep him at bay, buying as much time as she could.
The Fourth Raikage soon lost patience. Drawing on his terrifying physical strength, he smashed every mountain along his path, driving Ryūsetsuna, who had been using the rough terrain to evade him, into a desperate corner!
"Hmph!"
Seeing Ryūsetsuna's despairing expression, the Fourth Raikage, his body wreathed in dark purple mist, let a fierce killing intent show on his face.
Whoosh.
Just as the Fourth Raikage's fist was about to strike Ryūsetsuna, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her and threw a punch at him.
Rumble!
Their fists collided, unleashing a deafening roar and a shock wave so powerful it seemed tangible,
