Lightning God Armor

Everyone heard the dealer's words and turned to look at Qingcheng, their faces filled with anger. "Kid, were you cheating?"

Qingcheng smiled. "I never even touched the dice. How could I have cheated?"

Some of the gamblers shouted furiously, "We don't care! How did you roll triples twice? Give us all our money back!"

Qingcheng activated his Three-Tomoe Sharingan. The three black tomoe spun as the Sharingan's genjutsu took effect, and in an instant, all the gamblers collapsed in a human pile.

Qingcheng took out a Storage Scroll and began stuffing the casino's contents into it as if he were on a zero-cost shopping spree. Every last coin was swept away.

Tsunade was equally surprised. "You can do that? Uchiha brat, did you come to the casino to stock up on supplies?"

Just then, a burly black man with a face full of flesh arrived with a group of rogue ninjas. Seeing the gamblers Qingcheng had knocked down, he flew into a rage. "Kid, do you know who protects this place? I'm Lord Boshima!"

The rogue ninjas also cracked their knuckles, ready to attack.

Qingcheng said solemnly, "What did you say? Dare to say that again? You look just like Bo Gang."

Boshima looked at his underlings and asked, "What does Bo Gang mean? Is he insulting me?"

Looking at the uncultured rogue ninjas, Qingcheng said, "Demon Bo Gang specializes in eating shit. You're a perfect match for him. Did you eat half a pound before coming out? Your breath is so damn strong."

Boshima exploded with rage and roared, "You called me a shit-eater? You're finished, you little bastard! Let me show you the power of Hidden Cloud Village!"

With that, Boshima activated the Lightning God Armor. Blue lightning crackled across his body, identical to the Fourth Raikage's Lightning God Armor. However, compared to the Fourth Raikage, the current coursing through his body was far inferior.

Tsunade was surprised to see the Lightning God Armor. "You're a rogue ninja from the Tsukiyo Clan. What are you doing in the Land of Waves?"

Boshima snarled, "Who wants to be in the same clan as that brute? I failed a high-level mission, and he started suppressing me, calling me a coward and a piece of trash every day."

Qingcheng immediately seized the opening. "So you came to the Land of Waves to hide from the Fourth Raikage?"

Boshima roared angrily, "That has nothing to do with you! You'll all die here. This is the price for smashing up our place!"

Boshima charged at Qingcheng at incredible speed, his face twisted viciously. "Heavy Lightning Thousand Blade Dance!"

As soon as he spoke, Boshima raised his blue lightning-wreathed fist and smashed it toward Qingcheng's forehead like a rampaging tank.

Tsunade said, "Kid, I'll deal with him. Give me half your gambling winnings." Qingcheng smiled again. "If you deal with him, I agree to give you half."

Tsunade raised her fist high and punched straight at the charging Boshima. "Chakra Enhanced Strength!"

With a thunderous boom, Tsunade's fist collided directly with Boshima's right fist. Her Chakra Enhanced Strength sent him flying, blood spraying from his mouth. He tumbled several times through the air before crashing to the ground, his momentum smashing apart more than a dozen gambling tables.

Boshima spat blood and lay weakly amid the ruins.

Seeing the blood Boshima had spat out, Tsunade immediately dropped to her knees, her body going limp. Her eyes turned blank, like dead fish eyes, as she said fearfully, "Blood..."

Qingcheng laughed at the sight. "That kills two birds with one stone. Perfect."

Seeing their boss fall and lose his ability to fight, the rogue ninjas shouted, "Kill that brat! Capture that woman alive!"

As Qingcheng watched the rogue ninjas charge toward him, the Three-Tomoe Sharingan in his eyes transformed into the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Two enormous Susanoo arms clapped together with a boom, blasting a cloud of snowy mist into the air. Countless rogue ninjas screamed.

Some tried to flee. Watching the rogue ninjas attempt to escape, Qingcheng said coldly, "Once you've seen Susanoo, don't even think about running."

Then Qingcheng shouted, "Eight-Headed Curved Magatama!" The enormous skeletal arms of Susanoo grew flesh, as though donning armor. Golden armor covered it, turning Susanoo into a glittering golden giant.

All the rogue ninjas stared wide-eyed at the golden Susanoo, fear written across their faces. "What is that? Is there really a ninjutsu like that in this world?"

The gigantic Susanoo swung its right arm, flinging out more than a dozen golden magatama. Like cutting blades, they slaughtered large numbers of fleeing rogue ninjas.

The Eight-Headed Curved Magatama struck the wall and erupted with a huge flash of golden light. A thunderous explosion followed, like the simultaneous detonation of more than a dozen A-rank Ninjutsu.

Half the casino was destroyed, and the massive explosion swallowed the rogue ninjas whole, leaving not even corpses behind.

Qingcheng withdrew the third form of Susanoo and said solemnly, "This is the innate power of the Uchiha Clan. Once it's used, blood must be spilled."

Boshima had already lost the ability to move. Seeing that terrifying power, he was scared out of his wits and begged in terror, "Don't kill me! I still want to live! I'm kin to the Fourth Raikage!"

Qingcheng looked at Boshima, already forming a plan.

The Lightning God Armor was a B-rank Ninjutsu, but it was nearly as difficult to cultivate as an S-rank Ninjutsu. It used lightning to stimulate the cells, strengthening not only the body's hardness but also its speed.

It was the greatest Nintaijutsu in the Shinobi World. At mastery, the body could rival a Tailed Beast. It was the secret technique of the Tsukiyo Clan; both the Third and Fourth Raikage came from that clan.

Qingcheng immediately walked over to Boshima, activated his Three-Tomoe Sharingan, and cast a genjutsu on him.

Qingcheng asked, "How do you cultivate the Lightning God Armor? Tell me the hand seals."

Boshima's eyes were dull as he recited the Lightning God Armor's cultivation method word by word. "Use natural lightning to increase the Lightning God Armor's attack power. It can break through to become an S-rank Ninjutsu, or even an SS-rank Ninjutsu. The body can rival a Tailed Beast."

After obtaining the cultivation method for the Lightning God Armor, Qingcheng threw out several kunai and killed Boshima.

Then Qingcheng formed hand seals and shouted, "Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"

He opened his mouth and breathed out four fire dragons, incinerating the rogue ninjas and Bo Gang's corpses as though nothing had happened.

Tsunade was still lying on the ground, limp and terrified. From time to time, she murmured, "Blood... blood... I'm afraid..."

Seeing this, Qingcheng said, "Tsunade, don't be afraid. Your Dan Katō has returned, okay?"

With that, Qingcheng hoisted Tsunade over his shoulder and ran toward the street.
