When two extremely powerful moves collide, a winner will inevitably emerge, determining who is superior and who is inferior, and it may even come down to life or death.

In a brief moment, the Eight-Part Energy Slash clashed with the Fourth Raikage's hand blade, and the Fourth Raikage was clearly at a disadvantage and unable to defend himself. As expected, it was the Fourth Raikage.

Feeling the immense power, the chilling destructive force, and the sharpness, the Fourth Raikage felt a chill in his heart. He knew that his hand blade could not withstand this whirlwind.

Before he could think it through, the Eight-Part Energy Slash came crashing down with a crack. The sharpness brought by its extremely high-speed rotation had already annihilated and shattered the fingertips of the Fourth Raikage!

Feeling this, feeling the excruciating pain in his fingertips, the Fourth Raikage felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He knew he really couldn't hold on any longer; at the very least, this hand was already half-crippled!

In that brief moment of contemplation, the Eight-Part Energy Slash pressed forward another step, annihilating and slicing away the Fourth Raikage's desperately outstretched hand that was trying to block.

The next step is just one more step forward, and Annihilation will sever the Fourth Raikage's wrist. Losing this hand is a foregone conclusion. In such a short time and under such a terrible situation, the Fourth Raikage now has no choice but to make a decision!

Actually, making choices is very easy; there's nothing to hesitate about or can't figure out.

If the Fourth Raikage were to try and withstand it head-on, he definitely wouldn't be able to. Not only would he lose a hand or an arm, but his entire body would soon be shredded and annihilated by the Eight-Part Energy Slash. If he was lucky, his body would be cut in half, barely managing to leave behind a body.

If you don't try to withstand the attack head-on, but instead use all your strength to dodge, you can save your life, but the price is that you might never get your arm back.

Losing an arm is certainly painful, but it's better than losing a life. No matter how much pain and helplessness the Fourth Raikage felt, he knew the answer in his heart.

There's no other way, there's really no other way. We absolutely can't hesitate any longer, because this Eight-Part Energy Slash has already begun to obliterate and shatter the Fourth Raikage's wrist.

I felt a sharp pain in my wrist, and I could feel that even the blood hadn't gushed out from the injured area.

The Fourth Raikage disregarded everything else and the pain, focusing all his efforts on maintaining Lightning Release Chakra Mode and Lightning Release Armor.

At the same time, it was decided to sacrifice this arm, pushing it forward with all its might, flesh and bone, in the hope of slightly hindering the Eight-Part Energy Slash and at least slightly changing its movement and direction.

It must be said that the Fourth Raikage's crucial decision to sacrifice his arm at a critical moment proved to be very effective.

Despite his desperate efforts, the Eight-Part Energy Slash was indeed slightly hindered, its speed slowed down a little, and even its direction changed slightly.

Don't underestimate these tiny bits and threads; when they combine and accumulate, they can be a chance for the Fourth Raikage to escape.

Seeing that the Eight-Part Energy Slash had already annihilated and cut into his forearm, and that his elbow was just ahead, the Fourth Raikage knew that he had done a great job and that he should dodge and retreat no matter what.

The Fourth Raikage then unleashed his Lightning Release Chakra, straining his entire body and legs as he desperately used his remaining arms to push forward and block, while simultaneously turning his body to retreat to the left.

Click-clack... Sizzle sizzle...

With that piercing sound, the Eight-Part Energy Slash finally sliced through and annihilated the Fourth Raikage's elbow, cutting and annihilating his upper arm. Just one more step forward, and it would be his shoulder!

It's a bit of a shame that, through this self-destructive method of defense, the Fourth Raikage at least managed to dodge most of his body, making him relatively safe and less dangerous.

There's no need to think about the rest. Just keep unleashing your Lightning Release Chakra and retreat at full speed, ignoring this arm!

Sure enough, with a series of ear-piercing cracking sounds, the Fourth Raikage's entire right arm was completely annihilated and severed by the Eight-Part Energy Slash, leaving no part of his arm below the shoulder.

The price paid was heavy, but at least the Fourth Raikage had already retreated from the area and run away quickly. He no longer had to face the Eight-Part Energy Slash head-on, and at least his life was saved.

Having lost its target, the Eight-Part Energy Slash continued its unstoppable flight forward, smoothly cutting through many rocks along the way before disappearing into the distance.

Finally, with a deafening boom, the Eight-Part Energy Slash lost its momentum and triggered a massive Wind Release Chakra explosion in the distance. Wherever the Wind Release Chakra explosion reached, whether it was hard ground or hard rocks, it was annihilated into fine dust particles by the explosion.

Moreover, people around could clearly see that the explosion had a particularly large range, making it difficult for an average person to dodge.

It was precisely because they witnessed the power of this move from beginning to end that the hearts of the Fourth Raikage, who had lost his arm, as well as the Kumogakure Anbu Ninja and Darui who were watching from afar, turned cold.

How could anyone possibly withstand such a terrifying technique head-on? This Uchiha can actually unleash such a powerful move; just how strong is he? This is too outrageous and too bizarre!

The Fourth Raikage, whose body was bursting with Lightning Release Chakra, managed to dodge the attack by running at high speed, but at this moment he could no longer bear the excruciating pain of losing his arm.

He coughed, his face pale, stopped at a random spot, then clutched his severed arm, gritted his teeth, and began to endure the pain.

That's understandable, after all, it's the pain of losing an arm. And this arm wasn't cut off cleanly in one go. If it had been cut off like that, the Fourth Raikage could have endured it.

But this time, his right arm was being sliced and obliterated bit by bit by a terrifying Wind Release right before his eyes. The pain and the horrific sight were unbearable for an ordinary person.

Therefore, the Fourth Raikage couldn't take it anymore and stood there clutching his severed arm, trying to catch his breath.

However, this desire to slow down gave Yun Yan the best opportunity. Yun Yan opened his Mangekyō Sharingan and calmly watched the Fourth Raikage flee from where he stood. Then, he narrowed his eyes and activated the Flying Thunder God Technique.

With a whoosh, Yun Yan vanished along with half of his Susanoo, and suddenly appeared out of nowhere in front of the Fourth Raikage.

Not only did he appear in front of the Fourth Raikage, but while the Fourth Raikage was still somewhat dazed and hadn't fully reacted, Yun Yan directly raised the massive arm of his half-body Susanoo, clenched his fist, and slammed it down on the Fourth Raikage's head!

Note that the Fourth Raikage is currently in a state of recovery and rest. He is not in Lightning Release Chakra Mode at this time, and therefore does not have Lightning Release Chakra or Lightning Release Armor on his body. He is in his weakest state!

The Fourth Raikage was already panicked enough when Yun Yan suddenly appeared in front of him with half of Susanoo, but he was caught completely off guard by the terrifying fist that Susanoo smashed down.

The Fourth Raikage had no other choice but to raise his other, relatively intact arm and brace it upwards to defend himself.

With a deafening roar and billowing dust, the Fourth Raikage barely Susanoo with one arm, but it was only a narrow escape.

Given the Fourth Raikage's current terrible condition, how could he possibly withstand the immense strength of half a Susanoo? His face turned pale, and he knelt down on one knee, barely able to support himself.

From the outside, it looked like Yun Yan had swung his massive half-body Susanoo fist and blasted the Fourth Raikage to his knees with a single punch!

As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, the enormous commotion and shock caused by the punch also subsided, revealing the Fourth Raikage's dire condition to everyone.

This tough man, now pale-faced, pained, weak, and resentful, knelt helplessly and pathetically before Yun Yan.

At the same time, he struggled to raise one arm to block the massive half-body Susanoo fist that was pressing down on him from above. If he couldn't block it, his entire body would probably be smashed into the ground by the half-body Susanoo's fist, resulting in serious injuries!

In short, the current situation is that the Fourth Raikage has been restrained by Yun Yan, who has pressed him firmly to the ground with the giant fist of his Susanoo, making him unable to move at all.

In his prime, facing such a dire situation, even if the Fourth Raikage couldn't retaliate, he could at least take the opportunity to escape.

However, he had just lost an arm and was in a state of injury and pain. Now, being pressed down by the huge fist of the half-body Susanoo, he had almost no power to resist. It was already quite good that he could barely hold on.
