The Sudden Death of Tianqi's Consciousness!
"Uchiha Tianqi, you don't need to try. This barrier is primarily for defense. It would take at least three Kage Level ninjas to break it, and you're only one person now. You have no chance!" The first Iwagakure Ninja to speak said smugly.
Three Kage Level! That means they're trapped here. Although the situation is rather bad, the Iwagakure Ninja haven't pursued Sen'u. As long as they can hold them off, their objective will be achieved. Tianqi felt a little relieved at this moment.
Seeing the three-meter-tall Uchiha Tianqi's expression change slightly, the quasi-Kage became even happier.
"Heh heh, as long as we kill you today, our vanguard team's mission will be complete!"
"You can't get in even with this barrier, so how can you kill me?" Tianqi spread his hands, looking relaxed. He could kill them as long as they came in, but they couldn't hit him if they didn't come in. In his view, this barrier had two sides.
"Hmph, you're just a trapped beast right now. Did you think we couldn't do anything to you while you're inside?" The quasi-Kage of the Shadow Guard smiled, and a group of elite Jonin arrived at the four cardinal directions, forming hand seals as they prepared to unleash their Ninjutsu.
"This is! Could it be!" Tianqi's eyes widened as he watched the Iwagakure Ninja's actions. He suddenly thought of the scene in the original work where the ninjas fought against the Ten-Tails.
Just as Tianqi had expected, the four Shadow Guards, near-Kage level, raised their hands and opened gaps in the barrier on all four sides, and a group of elite Jonin also began Hand Seals.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"
"Fire Style: Great Flame Bullet Technique!"
"Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet Technique!"
A group of elite ninjas unleashed their Ninjutsu in unison, and a barrage of Fire Release Ninjutsu rushed in through the opening created by the quasi-kage.
"Holy crap! They're treating me like a roast pig! How could they do this?!" Tianqi slapped his hands together, and the wooden array wall rose up right next to him, firmly surrounding him in the middle.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
As the Fire Release Ninjutsu exploded, all the Iwagakure Ninja stared intently at the barrier, hoping to completely annihilate this Asura of the Ninja World.
After the smoke and dust from the explosion cleared, Tianqi's figure appeared. The wooden defensive array had disappeared, and Tianqi had extensive burns on his body, clearly indicating that he had not been able to withstand the attack.
"They couldn't eliminate him? He's really tenacious!" Seeing that they couldn't defeat Uchiha Tianqi, the Iwagakure Ninja were also very disappointed.
"You bunch of filthy ants, how dare you burn me! You're asking for death!!!" Tianqi accelerated and rushed to the edge of the barrier, his fists flying rapidly as he relentlessly attacked it, each punch landing squarely.
Seeing the crazed Uchiha Tianqi, the older quasi-Kage of the Shadow Guard stepped forward. "Uchiha Tianqi, your arrogance is the reason for your defeat today. You've always regarded us as ants, never imagining that we, whom you consider ants, could one day bring you down, have you?"
"Hahaha, once an ant, always an ant. You're not worthy to bring me down! Chidori!!" Tianqi laughed maniacally, raising his lightning-infused hand to harness the power of the weather.
The Iwagakure Ninja showed no fear or retreat; they believed that Uchiha Tianqi was unable to break through the earthen-yellow barrier.
"This is!!!" They quickly noticed the strange phenomenon in the sky. The dark clouds were filled with lightning power that was constantly gathering and eventually forming the shape of Kirin. The huge lightning Kirin was leaping in the sky.
"Follow my guidance and descend with the power of lightning, Kirin!" Guided by Tianqi's Chidori, the Kirin in the sky pierced through the clouds and poked out its huge head. However, it charged down with terrifying lightning power and crashed directly into the barrier.
"Zzz! Zzz! Zzz!" The Kirin's lightning power continuously impacted the barrier.
The group of Iwagakure Ninja were so frightened by the terrifying lightning Kirin that they took two steps back.
As the Kirin continued its assault, the rock and earth barrier, which originally required three Kage Level experts to break through, began to crack.
"No! Uchiha Tianqi is about to break out! Maintain the barrier and don't let him out!" the older quasi-Kage shouted.
The five elite Jonin maintaining the barrier had ferocious expressions on Jonin faces, frantically unleashing their Chakra.
However, unnoticed, the quasi-shadow who had his elder brother killed by Tianqi used "Earth Release - Earth Style: Underground Dragon Technique" to sneak underground, and no one knew what he was going to do.
"Gather!" Tianqi shouted, and the lightning Kirin quickly condensed on Tianqi's right hand, with the Kirin's head appearing directly on Tianqi's fist.
"Break!" Aiming at the crack in the barrier, Tianqi swung his right hand out, unleashing terrifying Kirin lightning power that instantly widened the crack, creating a gap large enough for a person to pass through.
"Not good! There's a breach in the barrier! Everyone prepare to fight!" Although shocked that Uchiha Tianqi could break through the barrier, the several quasi-Kage of the Shadow Guard reacted quickly.
Tianqi pushed off with both feet and accelerated out of the barrier. His speed was so fast it was like Body Flicker Technique. In just an instant, he arrived in front of the older quasi-shadow. Tianqi grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up like a chicken.
"I told you long ago, an ant is always an ant!" Tianqi exerted force with one hand, ready to crush the quasi-shadow figure if he wanted to.
"You...", Zhunying, whose neck was being gripped, could barely speak.
"Pfft!"
Just as Tianqi was about to end this near-shadow's life, he heard a soft "thud" and a long knife pierced his heart from behind.
"How did you end up here!" Tianqi turned his head slightly and discovered that the person behind him was actually the same Zhunying who had killed his elder brother before. He also let go of the other Zhunying's hand.
"Uchiha Tianqi, I've said it before, I must kill you myself to avenge my brother!" With that, the quasi-Kage drew his long sword.
"Pfft!" Tianqi spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to his knees. Is this what they call Karma? I killed his older brother, so he's going to kill me.
"Hahaha, well done! That sneak attack was absolutely brilliant!" The elderly Zhunying, who had narrowly escaped death, also gave a thumbs up. He had thought he was doomed just now, but unexpectedly, the situation was reversed in the end.
"Uchiha Tianqi, your fate was sealed the moment you killed my elder brother. You were destined to die by my hand!" The quasi-Kage pointed his long sword at the dying Uchiha Tianqi.
What a strange character! He didn't die immediately after being pierced through the heart. Uchiha Tianqi is indeed different. The older quasi-Kage was secretly amazed when he saw Tianqi still alive.
"Fate? Heh, I've never believed in such things. My fate is in my own hands!" Tianqi struggled to stand up.
"Haa! Ah! Ah! Ah!" Tianqi burned all the energy in his body, and terrifying energy poured out, causing cracks to slowly appear on his body.
"Damn it! He's going to self-destruct! Everyone retreat! Retreat!" The quasi-Kage who realized what was happening immediately began to flee, shouting for retreat as they ran. The self-destruction of a Kage Level expert was simply too terrifying; they had no intention of stopping him.
"Ah! It's going to explode! Run!"
"The officials have left too, let's get out of here quickly!!!"
"..."
Seeing that the leaders, all near-Kage, had fled, the remaining ninjas also began to run away in a panic.
Seeing the Iwagakure Ninja Tianqi escape, he didn't give chase. His self-destruction range was enormous, and these Iwagakure Ninja couldn't escape, so there was absolutely no need to pursue him.
"I absolutely cannot get up. I'll only drag you down with me this time!" Tianqi said calmly.
"No need to say anything, Tianqi, we've been prepared for a long time!" Jue's voice slowly appeared, clearly showing that they were not afraid at all.
"Sen'u, I can't go on with you any longer. Live your life well!" As his energy reached its peak, Tianqi's body began to collapse little by little.
"Life and death in a split second, heroic spirit shines forever, overcoming countless obstacles, witnessing the grand fireworks of a prosperous age, overturning the world, indulging in a night of extravagance, blood staining the yellow sand, youth turning to white hair, I am a true hero, how could I be afraid! Hahahaha..."
"Bang!!" With Tianqi's final, maniacal laugh, the energy in his body exploded completely.
