Activating her Kamuyami Shikigami under the Lesser Infinite Sage Art, Huiyao transformed into a Radiant Sun dozens of times more brilliant than she had been in the Netherworld. It was no exaggeration to say that anyone without a fully perfected Diamond Body would be blinded just by looking straight at it!
Yu regarded the sun as a torch, calm and unhurried. The Sunflare Power that had once been impossibly beyond his reach was now nothing more than a slightly larger torch in his eyes.
Beneath the Radiant Sun, streaming flames gathered into Huiyao's majestic form. She hoped to see even a trace of panic or unease on Yu's face, but she was disappointed!
Her disappointment soon turned fierce. As she raised her palm, burning with hundreds of millions of degrees of heat, a pan-shaped mirror appeared beneath the sun!
-Divine artifact: Calamity Sun Pan!
Looking at the pan, Yu remarked, "That pan again. I thought this last time, too-it really looks like the satellite dishes in the village courtyards back home..."
During the battle in the Yellow Springs, Yu had had no time to poke fun at his enemy's moves, however ridiculous they looked. Now, things truly were different.
He had grown stronger! Strong enough to crack jokes calmly even with a formidable enemy before him!
Whoosh!
The mirror of the Calamity Sun Pan focused the Radiant Sun's hundreds of millions of scattered rays into a single beam and blasted it at Yu!
Back in the Netherworld, this move had easily broken through the Shadow Box, the strongest defense of Hashirama's Heaven's Imperial Shadow. Now, enhanced by the Infinite Sage Art, its offensive power could truly be called god-slaying!
Yu did not dare take it lightly. He raised his hands and formed hand seals.
-Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!
Roar!
