Witnessing a crack appear in the lightning barrier that had been shielding Inazuma City from the monsters, the crowd began to panic. However, under the leadership of Kujou Sara and the organization of the Kamisato Clan, the citizens gradually calmed down and headed toward designated shelters.
Why would such monsters suddenly appear? Kamisato Ayato wondered to himself while directing the civilians.
Natural disasters and man-made calamities were laid bare in this moment.
Despite the efforts of the numerous troops and the personnel from several clans to organize rescue operations, the vast majority of the people remained caught in a panic, and there was no shortage of opportunists taking advantage of the chaos.
This caused Inazuma, which had only just begun to stabilize, to descend into disorder once again.
At this moment, the Cyclops formed by the monsters outside the lightning barrier began a new round of continuous attacks, causing the cracks in the barrier to multiply.
Some monsters even managed to thrust a claw through, though they were quickly reduced to ashes by the immense power inherent in the lightning barrier!
But as the cracks grew, the people inside the barrier became increasingly panicked, watching as the lightning barrier gradually collapsed.
Standing in the sky, sitting in meditation while maintaining the lightning barrier, Raiden Shogun was already planning to dispel the barrier and launch a counterattack.
After all, the barrier's built-in counter-attack function had limited power and posed little threat to these composite monsters, not to mention that the endless sea of monsters provided them with constant reinforcements.
But once she was free to act, with her ultimate martial arts and the power of a god, Raiden Shogun could slay this Cyclops monster with a single blade!
The only reason she had kept the lightning barrier up was because there were simply too many monsters outside.
Without the barrier, if the army had to fight the monsters alone, they would never be able to hold back such numbers. The casualties among the populace would be unbearable, and in the end, perhaps no one would survive except for Raiden Shogun herself.
But now, with the monsters increasing in number and the Cyclops outside the barrier attacking incessantly, Raiden Shogun had prepared herself for an all-out battle.
"BOOM!"
Just then, the Cyclops landed another heavy blow, and the cracks in the lightning barrier became large enough for some of the smaller monsters to slip through.
"Shogunate Army, heed my command! Protect the citizens! Hold these monsters back!" Following Kujou Sara's order, the Shogunate Army formed ranks in an orderly fashion to deal with the monsters that had broken through.
Kujou Sara looked at the dire scene before her, a wave of irritation rising in her heart. She drew her bow to its full extent, her Vision beginning to glow. Electro energy, far exceeding that of an ordinary person, condensed on the arrow, emitting a brilliant purple light!
"SWISH!"
Three monsters were killed in a single strike, but facing the infinite horde from the sea, it was like trying to put out a forest fire with a cup of water.
"Crack! Crack!"
Just as the lightning barrier shattered further, Raiden Shogun prepared to dissolve it and strike the next moment.
But at this critical juncture, an imposing voice descended from the heavens!
"Mere ants, no matter how many of you there are, how can you hope to overturn the heavens?!"
"Tengai Shinsei!"
A massive meteor pushed aside layers of clouds, descending from the sky with unparalleled pressure!
The target of this meteor was none other than the Cyclops outside the lightning barrier!
The Cyclops seemed to sense something amiss, looking up at the meteor, which was countless times larger than itself. Even though it possessed almost no intelligence, it could not help but feel a sliver of fear.
"RUMBLE!!!"
"BANG----BANG!!!"
As the meteor crashed down, countless monsters were instantly reduced to ashes and vanished!
The Cyclops, composed of countless monsters, was no exception. Yet, very quickly, the remaining monsters in the sea immediately assembled into a creature several times larger than the previous Cyclops!
The monsters merged in an instant and let out a roar!
It seemed to be saying, You've finished throwing your meteor? Could it be that you have a second one?
"Oh? Interesting. But how will you block the second one?"
BOOM~~~
A meteor, an entire size larger than the previous one, descended from the sky. The flames generated by friction seemed capable of burning everything!
At the same time, standing behind this meteor was a thousand-meter-tall energy giant!
At the top of the giant's head sat a hexagonal prism, and inside it was Uchiha Madara, who had come to provide support via the Chat Group!
Now, strengthened by the Chat Group and his own improvements over the past few days, Uchiha Madara's strength was no longer what it used to be.
Uchiha Madara could even boast without false modesty that, according to the Naruto World view, every enemy that had appeared in the original work, including Boruto, could perhaps only be rivaled by the legendary God of Otsutsuki!
What was the concept of Tier 2, Level 9 strength?
In the Dragon Ball World, that would equate to hundreds of thousands in combat power. It was not impossible to reach the Tier 3 level, similar to Frieza, capable of destroying planets with a casual flick!
It could be said that in the Genshin Impact world, which had not explicitly displayed planet-destroying combat power, he could be called invincible.
Clearly, the current situation was not comparable to the past. This strange, abnormal power had allowed even the Tier 0 monsters to rise to Tier 1, and they could even combine and fuse to possess higher-level power.
Most importantly, the mastermind had yet to appear. According to the functions planned by the Chat Group, the mastermind likely reached the Tier 3 planet-destroying level!
This was a qualitative leap from Tier 2. Ordinary people could not bridge such a gap. It was like in the Dragon Ball World, where a 20% difference in combat power was enough to crush an opponent, and 50% was enough to approach a one-shot kill.
For example, if one person had 100,000 combat power and another had 150,000, the one with 150,000 could crush or even kill the one with 100,000.
This was the gap between tiers. Although the classifications differed in each world, they were not far off.
Unless one possessed a bug-like skill such as Kaioken, or the ability to transform and cause combat power to skyrocket, crossing tiers was nearly impossible.
A thousand meters above Inazuma City.
Uchiha Madara stood within the head of his brand-new Complete Body Susanoo, observing the destructive power of his Tengai Shinsei!
The colossal monstrosity, formed from the reassembled remains of the beasts, was pulverized by the second falling Tengai Shinsei, which also annihilated the vast majority of the creatures in the sea.
This provided the lightning barrier unleashed by the Raiden Shogun a moment of respite; the next instant, the cracks on the barrier vanished rapidly, and the lightning barrier was restored to perfection.
As the Complete Body Susanoo controlled by Uchiha Madara flapped its wings and descended from the sky, the people of Inazuma caught sight of this towering warrior, who appeared like a true god!
"Is this a true god? What a magnificent stature!" a middle-aged man exclaimed, staring dumbstruck at the thousand-meter-tall Complete Body Susanoo.
"That meteor from just a moment ago must also be the power of this god!" someone remarked.
Others knelt on the ground, muttering prayers.
"O magnificent warrior god, we beseech you to save Inazuma! Slay these invading monsters!"
In short, everyone who witnessed this scene reacted in a variety of ways.
