Seeing this, the Third Raikage roared, and the power released by his Lightning Release Armor became even stronger, transforming from the original illusory armor prototype into an almost solid blue arc armor that slowly flowed around his body.
Seeing the hammer and awl coming at him, he wouldn't just sit and wait to die. He activated Lightning Release Chakra Mode, using Lightning Release Chakra currents to stimulate his nerves and muscles, thus unleashing supersonic speed to dodge.
Boom! The golden hammer and the golden cone collided, but did not cause widespread damage. Anyone with eyes could see that the entire impact was concentrated on the tip of the cone. Moreover, as the cone pierced the ground, a force penetrated through the surface and into the ground, creating a small hole that was visible to the naked eye.
The Third Raikage appeared, his eyes filled with seriousness as he looked at the cone-shaped weapon. This attack was even stronger than Tailed Beast! Perhaps others had no right to speak on this, but the Third Raikage, the strongest Raikage A, certainly did!
Uchiha Kō showed a mocking expression. "I thought you wouldn't dodge. After all, you're known as the strongest Raikage, possessing the strongest physical body."
The Third Raikage scoffed, "That depends on the person. If someone can take any skill, they're not a warrior, they're a fool!" With that, he transformed into a bolt of lightning and charged toward Uchiha Kō. Uchiha Kō Uchiha Gunbai, blocked with both hands.
With a loud thud, the Raikage appeared, his Three-Finger Nukite strike hitting the Uchiha Gunbai, unleashing a tremendous roar, and a shockwave radiated outwards from the point of contact!
Instantly, the ninjas from both Kumogakure and Konoha took more than ten steps back, looking at the two in the center of the arena. They gasped; these two monsters were simply inhuman! This was no longer a battle that Jonin could participate in.
Even ordinary Kage Level shinobi could be caught in the crossfire and seriously injured if they were not careful. Seeing this, Konoha and Cloud Ninja tacitly gave up the center of the arena and continued fighting on the periphery.
The Third Raikage A, groaned, feeling a force rebounding from his body. Then, a metallic taste surged from his internal organs. He forcibly suppressed the discomfort and withdrew.
Uchiha Kō felt a jolt in his arm, but thanks to the powerful physical advantage of the Sage Body, he quickly recovered from the jolt and was back to his peak condition!
Uchiha Kō retracted his Uchiha Gunbai, plunging it into the ground. One foot rested on the fan's surface, the other on the handle. "You... is that all you've got? Sorry, you're not getting away! Prepare to atone with your death!"
Uchiha Kō clapped his hands together, shouting "Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!" His magnetic voice was accompanied by a surging heatwave as a pillar of crimson flame shot towards the Raikage!
The Third Raikage A, narrowed his eyes and roared, "Two-Finger Nukite!" Facing the overwhelming heat and the almost solid pillar of flame, the Third Raikage A, did not choose to back down, but instead faced the challenge head-on!
The dark blue lightning crackled and sizzled as the Third Raikage A, executed Two-Finger Nukite and dash, drawing a graceful arc in the pitch-black night. However, the violent aura within it told you that it was anything but graceful.
The arc cut the pillar of fire in two, and its momentum continued as it pierced straight toward Uchiha Kō's face!
Uchiha Kō was stunned and had no time to defend himself. Thud! The Two-Finger Nukite pierced through Uchiha Kō's head. Uchiha Kō's face turned pale, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Hmph, don't underestimate me, Hokage. Although you are strong, I am not bad either!" The Third Raikage said something like a post-battle summary, then withdrew his hand, turned around, and the movement was swift and fluid.
Namikaze Minato roared, "Master! This is impossible!" He then unleashed his full power, throwing out nearly a hundred Flying Thunder God Kunai. He then relentlessly Flying Thunder God Technique, constantly shifting and dodging around the Third Raikage.
The Third Raikage gritted his teeth. "Damn mosquito! Go to hell with your useless teacher!" With that, the Third Raikage unleashed his Chakra once more, slamming it into the ground. Instantly, the ground collapsed, and a shockwave shot out in all directions.
Although the ninjas from Kumogakure and Konoha had traveled quite a distance, they were still affected by the shockwave of the attack, and were thrown back into the air with screams of pain.
Namikaze Minato gritted his teeth, seized an opening, and threw a Flying Thunder God Kunai at the Raikage's head. Then, in mid-air, he performed the Flying Thunder God: Second Step, channeling wind-style Chakra in his hands, and made a magnificent turn. "Flying Thunder God: Second Step, Big Ball Rasengan!"
The Third Raikage, still recovering from a powerful strike and unable to regenerate strength, was unable to dodge the attack. A wind-style Rasengan forced his intervertebral disc to the ground, causing him to roar, "Aa...
Namikaze Minato used his full power in that attack, inflicting considerable damage on the Third Raikage. But who is he? He is the Third Raikage, the strongest Raikage, the one who could fight the Eight-Tails single-handedly! Even injured, I can stand up again! And continue fighting!
After Namikaze Minato Chakra exhausted his chakra, he Namikaze Minato on the Third Raikage's back. At that moment, he grabbed the Flying Thunder God Kunai, his eyes hardening, and slashed at the Third Raikage's neck.
Just then, the Third Raikage raised his left hand and used his body to block the fatal blow. Although the Flying Thunder God Kunai successfully pierced his palm, this small amount of damage was not enough to make the Third Raikage back down.
The Third Raikage 'Chakra surged violently, a violent burst of Namikaze Minato -Lightning Release Chakra that sent Namikaze Minato flying three meters away. Due to the depletion of his Chakra and the impact on his stamina, he was unable to neutralize the attack in mid-air.
He fell heavily to the ground! His eyes were filled with hatred, disappointment, and grief.
The Third Raikage stood up, Flying Thunder God Kunai from his left hand with his right. Bright red blood gushed out, but the Third Raikage seemed to feel no pain at all. "Tsk tsk, Konoha really has a lot of geniuses. However, it is precisely because you are a genius that I am willing to take action and end your life."
After speaking, the Third Raikage walked towards Namikaze Minato. Every step he took felt like it was treading on his heart, making him tremble. Namikaze Minato struggled to get up and resist, but the Third Raikage was in no hurry and slowly walked towards him.
Heh, Uchiha Kō is dead, let's see who can protect you now! The Third Raikage thought to himself, then suddenly his expression changed. Uchiha Kō, killed by him? Something's not right, something's not right! How could it be so easy? And Uchiha Kō clearly didn't use his full strength.
His heart pounded, and a sense of unease welled up within him. He abruptly turned to look in the direction where he had killed "Uchiha Kō," only to see a Wood Golem kneeling on the ground with a large hole in its head. At that moment, he understood!
"Not good!" The Third Raikage had barely uttered the cry when his Cloud Ninja knelt on the ground, unable to move, and then one by one began to self-destruct and die.
The explosion of Lightning Release Armor and Lightning Release Chakra had drastically reduced his sense of touch and pain. He couldn't feel the sensation of the Two-Finger Nukite piercing through the Wood Golem at all, thinking it was real. But now it seemed it was all an illusion!
The Cloud Ninja knelt on the ground, wanting to shout, but their throats seemed to be blocked by something. There was a pattern drawn with a huge golden lotus at their feet, and standing inside it, they felt themselves being squeezed and oppressed.
In the sky
Uchiha Kō's eyes gleamed with golden light as he looked down at the Cloud Ninja present, devoid of any emotion, his face cruel. This time, he didn't start with the lowest level of pressure, but went straight for the full force.
Instantly, three thousand ninjas died, just like before, their bodies vanished without a trace, leaving only the Cloud Ninja Forehead Protector meant to symbolize their status! The Third Raikage's eyes widened in fury at the sight! "Beast! Uchiha Kō, as the Kage of a village, you dare to launch a sneak attack on a ninja army? Have you no shame?"
"Oh? YY King, you've come to your senses? Weren't you enjoying the thrill of killing me, constantly unleashing your power?" Uchiha Kō mocked, then stretched out a hand, aiming at the Third Raikage, a smirk playing on his lips, "Universal Pull!"
A tremendous suction force was generated, pulling the Third Raikage's body towards him. The Third Raikage was startled at first, then realized that this was Uchiha Kō's Ninjutsu!
"Since you dare to absorb my power, don't blame me for using it to kill you!" The Third Raikage's eyes lit up, and he stretched out both hands, retracting four fingers from each. "Double One-Finger Nukite!" he roared.
With astonishing force, he rushed towards Uchiha Kō. However, Uchiha Kō would not be without a backup plan. He calmly said, "Almighty Push," and a repulsive barrier spread out from his body in all directions.
Upon contact with this repulsive force, the One-Finger Nukite were thrown back without even pausing for more than two seconds, flying towards the distant woods.
Uchiha Kō coldly stared at him, a smirk playing on his lips. Just as he was about to catch up with the Third Raikage, a figure rushed toward the exhausted Namikaze Minato Namikaze Minato. Minato's expression changed drastically. Damn it, he had become a sitting duck, something he could hardly accept.
Uchiha Kō snorted coldly, used the Flying Thunder God Technique to block in front of Namikaze Minato, drew his Ninja Blade and stabbed at the figure. With a tearing sound, the figure was pierced through the chest by the Ninja Blade. Uchiha Kō kicked out, and the figure was sent flying.
"Teacher!" Namikaze Minato's eyes were filled with tears. He should have known that his teacher would be alright! Moreover, his teacher had given up chasing the Raikage to save him!
Uchiha Kō smiled as he looked at Namikaze Minato. His eyes had returned to their Mangekyō Sharingan form, and he activated his Dōjutsu Resurrection, rapidly healing Namikaze Minato's injuries and restoring his depleted Chakra.
Once Namikaze Minato had fully recovered, he quickly stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you so much, Master, for saving my life!"
"It's alright, you can handle the rest of the Cloud Ninja! I'm going to check if the Raikage has gone far!" With that, Uchiha Kō patted Namikaze Minato on the shoulder and then dashed off in the direction where the Raikage had been knocked away.
Namikaze Minato nodded, picked up Flying Thunder God Kunai, and threw it into the crowd of Cloud Ninja!
