One Man Holds the Pass

In just a brief clash, the Third Raikage had killed dozens of people, dealing a severe blow to the morale of Iwagakure's Shinobi Army. They hesitated, unwilling to advance.

"No matter how strong he is, he's only one man! Attack together! Kill him!" the Rock Ninja higher-ups shouted, rallying them.

After exchanging glances, the Rock Ninja at the front gathered their courage and surged forward. The canyon was over ten meters wide, enough for more than a dozen people to advance side by side. They refused to believe that one man could stop them all!

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..." The Rock Ninja charged at full speed, tearing through the air with sharp whistling sounds. Some of them used the Chakra Adhesion Technique to race along the canyon walls on either side, attempting to bypass the Third Raikage in the middle and continue the pursuit.

Facing the oncoming wall of people, the Third Raikage erupted with even more powerful chakra. His hair stood straight up like a Saiyan's, and then he transformed into a beam of light once more, shooting toward the enemy.

Under Lightning Release Chakra Mode, the Third Raikage's speed rivaled the Body Flicker Technique. The blue streak he became sliced across the valley like lightning, and a violent gale immediately swept through the canyon entrance, sending every charging Rock Ninja flying backward.

Boom! Boom! In the blink of an eye, two enormous craters appeared in the mountain walls on either side. Several mangled figures were embedded within them. After finishing his attack, the Third Raikage flashed and reappeared in the middle of the canyon. With a savage grin, he said, "Brats, I told you that no one is allowed to cross this place before I die. If you want to get through, then come and try!"
