When they saw a crack appear in the lightning barrier that blocked out the sky and kept the monsters at bay, everyone in Inazuma City began to panic. However, under the leadership of Kujou Sara and the Shogunate Army, and with the Kamisato Clan head organizing the people, they gradually calmed down and made their way to the shelters.
"Why did these monsters suddenly appear?" Kamisato Ayato thought as he guided the people to safety.
At that moment, the full force of natural and man-made disasters was laid bare.
Although numerous troops and members of several clans had organized rescue efforts, most of the people were still in a panic, and some were even taking advantage of the chaos to steal and cause trouble.
As a result, Inazuma, which had only just begun to stabilize, fell into chaos again.
Outside the lightning barrier, the Cyclops formed from the monsters began another continuous assault, causing more and more cracks to appear in the barrier.
Some monsters had even managed to thrust a claw through, but the barrier's powerful retaliatory force quickly reduced them to ashes!
As the cracks multiplied, the people inside grew increasingly frantic, watching the lightning barrier slowly crumble.
Raiden Shogun, seated in the sky as she maintained the barrier, had already decided to take it down and launch a counterattack.
After all, the barrier's counterattacks were certainly powerful, but they posed little threat to a monster made up of many creatures. And the endless supply of monsters from the sea only made things worse.
But once she was free to act, Raiden Shogun could cut down this Cyclops with a single strike, using her peerless martial skill and divine power!
The only reason she had kept the lightning barrier up was the sheer number of monsters outside.
Without it, the army alone could never hold them all back. The civilian casualties would be unbearable, and by the end, Raiden Shogun herself might be the only survivor.
But now, with the monsters multiplying and the Cyclops outside the barrier attacking relentlessly, Raiden Shogun was ready to fight with everything she had.
"Boom!"
Just then, the Cyclops landed another heavy punch. The cracks in the barrier had grown large enough for some of the smaller monsters to get through.
"Shogunate Army, heed my command! Protect the people! Hold back the monsters!" At Kujou Sara's order, the troops formed up in orderly ranks and fought the creatures that had broken through.
Kujou Sara looked at the disastrous scene before her, a surge of frustration welling up inside. She drew her bow to its full extent. The Vision on her body began to glow as Electro energy far beyond that of an ordinary person gathered on the arrow, radiating a brilliant purple light!
"Whoosh!"
Three monsters were killed in quick succession, but against the endless horde from the sea, it was hardly a drop in the bucket.
"Crack! Crack!"
As the lightning barrier broke apart further, Raiden Shogun was ready to dispel it and strike at any moment.
But at that critical moment, a domineering voice rang down from the sky!
"Even if there are countless ants, how could they ever turn the world upside down?!"
"Tengai Shinsei!"
A massive meteorite then tore through layer upon layer of clouds and descended from the sky, bringing with it an overwhelming sense of oppression!
Its target was the Cyclops outside the lightning barrier!
The Cyclops seemed to sense that something was wrong. It looked up at the meteorite, many times larger than itself. Though it had almost no intelligence, it couldn't help feeling a trace of fear.
"Rumble!!!"
"Crash—bang!!!"
As the meteorite struck, countless monsters were instantly reduced to ashes and disappeared!
The Cyclops, formed from countless monsters, was no exception. Yet the surviving monsters in the sea quickly joined together to form a creature several times larger than the Cyclops had been before.
The monster assembled in an instant and let out a roar!
It seemed to be saying, "You've already used up your meteorite. Do you have another one?"
"Oh? This is interesting. But how will you stop the second one?"
Rumble~~~
A meteorite a full size larger than the previous one descended from the sky, its friction-generated flames seeming capable of scorching everything!
And behind this meteorite stood an energy giant a thousand meters tall!
A hexagonal prism sat atop the giant's head, and inside it was Uchiha Madara, who had come to help through the Chat Group!
After being strengthened by the Chat Group and growing more powerful over the past few days, Uchiha Madara was now far stronger than before.
He could even boast without the slightest shame that, judging by the Naruto World's power scale, among all the enemies who had appeared in the original story—including Boruto—perhaps only the legendary God of Otsutsuki could match him!
What did the strength of the second tier, level nine, mean?
In the Dragon Ball World, it would mean a battle power of hundreds of thousands. With just a few more steps, he could reach the third tier and become someone like Frieza, capable of casually destroying a planet!
In the Genshin Impact world, where no one had ever clearly displayed planet-destroying power, he could be called invincible.
But it was clear that things had changed. This strange, abnormal power had raised even monsters that were originally only at the zero tier to the first tier. They could even combine and fuse, gaining power of an even higher level.
Most importantly, the mastermind had yet to appear. Based on the Chat Group's assessment, the mastermind might well have reached the third tier—the planet-destroying level!
That was a qualitative leap over the second tier, a gap ordinary people couldn't cross. It was like the Dragon Ball World, where a difference of more than twenty percent in battle power was enough to crush an opponent, while a fifty percent advantage could bring a near-instant victory.
For example, if one person had a battle power of one hundred thousand and another had one hundred and fifty thousand, the stronger fighter could crush the weaker one—and might even kill him.
That was the difference between power levels. Though each world divided them differently, the gaps were much the same.
Unless you had a broken ability like Kaioken, or could transform to make your battle power surge, it was unlikely you could overcome a difference in tiers.
High above Inazuma City, a thousand meters in the sky.
Uchiha Madara stood inside the head of his brand-new Complete Body Susanoo, watching the power of his Tengai Shinsei!
The gigantic monster, which had re-formed from the creatures, was crushed outright by the second Tengai Shinsei. The meteorite also wiped out the vast majority of the monsters in the sea.
This gave Raiden Shogun's lightning barrier a chance to recover. In the next moment, the cracks in the barrier rapidly disappeared, and it was restored to perfection.
As the Complete Body Susanoo controlled by Uchiha Madara beat its wings and descended from the sky, the people of Inazuma saw the imposing warrior, a figure that seemed like a true god!
"Is this what a true god looks like? What a magnificent figure!" A middle-aged man stared at the thousand-meter-tall Complete Body Susanoo in astonishment and cried out in awe.
"That meteorite just now must have been this god's power!" someone said.
Others dropped to one knee and murmured:
"O mighty warrior god, please save Inazuma! Slay these invading monsters!"
In short, everyone who witnessed the scene reacted in their own way.
