At nine in the morning, on the southern wasteland battlefield.
Gales carrying a thick stench of blood tore through the trenches. The sun was completely obscured by dense gray-yellow sand and dust. The sky was as dark as an overturned iron cauldron, crushing the breath from the hundred thousand Allied Shinobi Forces.
In midair, a several-hundred-meter Wood Release behemoth clad in Perfect Susanoo armor raised two blue chakra greatswords. Before the blades could even fall, their terrifying pressure had already carved two bottomless trenches into the ground.
"How could youth's greatest climax possibly leave me out?!"
Might Guy's roar overwhelmed the storm itself. His green jumpsuit creaked under his swelling muscles, while the sweat covering his body instantly evaporated in the extreme heat, becoming a layer of violent blue vapor that made him resemble a burning blue fireball.
"Eight Gates, Seventh Gate: Gate of Wonder, open!"
There was no needless chatter, nor did he need hand seals. Might Guy kicked off violently, blasting the hard rock beneath his feet into powder. Defying sword pressure strong enough to tear steel apart, he shot straight toward the Susanoo behemoth in the sky.
His fists crossed at blinding speed before his chest. The air was instantly sucked dry by his ultimate taijutsu, producing a deafening sonic boom.
"Daytime Tiger!"
A massive white tiger condensed from high-pressure air roared as it collided with the descending blue greatsword.
Boom!
White shockwaves and blue chakra collided in midair, exploding into a visible ring of violent impact. Rubble within several kilometers was hurled into the sky. That invincible Susanoo Wood Release behemoth was actually knocked two huge steps backward by that pure punch, and cracks burst across the blue armor on its chest.
"Interesting. You actually forced my Susanoo back using taijutsu alone."
