Radiation Domain

The next second, thick mist appeared all around them. Within the spreading fog, they could not see their own hands before their faces.

Screams rang out from within, each one marking the death of a ninja.

Naturally, the Hidden Mist Village would not let these injured Konoha ninja leave. They were waiting for the final opportunity.

"Careful! The enemy is here!"

Tsunade's expression darkened. She had been too eager to save people and had fallen into the enemy's scheme. Forcing herself to calm down, determination flashed through her eyes when she opened them again.

"The next battle will be incredibly chaotic. Take the chance to break through toward the outskirts. Don't worry about me. They can't catch me."

Her hands rapidly formed seals as she performed a summoning technique.

A massive Slug appeared, blocking the surrounding area and preventing the enemy from advancing.

"Lady Tsunade."

The blue-and-white Slug was wondering where it was when it saw Tsunade's grim expression.

"Slug, I need your help next. Split into smaller bodies and attach yourselves to these wounded people. Do your best to keep them alive."

Standing atop the Slug's head, Tsunade could see the figures engaged in slaughter. The Hidden Mist Village clearly had no intention of sparing them.

"Understood, Lady Tsunade."

You did not remain at Tsunade's side. This kind of battle was not for him, and he had a more important role to play.

You had hidden himself in the shadows and was stirring the radioactive elements within his body. However, the area was far too vast, and it would take some time to spread them completely.

"Hidden Mist Village ninja, I wonder whether you can bear such losses."

He unleashed the power of radioactive elements without restraint. Even You could not imagine the destructive effects it would cause.

The grass, flowers, and trees around him slowly withered as though they had lost all moisture, eventually turning into clumps of black ash.

The Slug split into countless smaller bodies and wrapped around the less severely injured ninja. Then came the sound of a fist cutting through the air, and Tsunade shattered the newly formed Hidden Mist Technique with a single punch.

A group of Mist ninja sneered within the fog. Their leader, an Elite Jonin, gripped a ninja blade with streams of electricity flowing over it. He was also one of this generation's Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

As if admiring his prey, he spoke with delight in his voice:

"I never expected to catch such a big fish! If I kill you, it will be an unprecedented blow to Konoha!"

Tsunade knew of the Hidden Mist Village's trump card unit, renowned throughout the Shinobi World. The blade before her was among those recorded in its legends.

"The wielder of Lightning Fang? Do you think these people alone can kill me?"

Yuxia Tianzhong looked even more disdainful. He was a ninja who had been famous for a long time. Though Tsunade carried many titles, in a real fight, he believed he could certainly kill her.

In an instant, lightning erupted, shining with a deep azure glow.

"Lightning Release! Lightning Ball!"

Lightning-nature chakra flowed into the blade, and the Lightning Ball formed by their convergence possessed tremendous destructive force as it instantly arrived before Tsunade.

Crack!

The battle between the two immediately reached a fever pitch. However, judging purely from the exchange, Yuxia Tianzhong's attacks were more powerful.

The Hidden Rain Village experienced rain year-round, and now, because of the lightning, bolts of thunder also formed overhead.

Combined with the rainwater's conductivity, Yuxia Tianzhong held the advantage of time and terrain and gave Tsunade no chance to catch her breath.

Their battle fell into a deadlock, and with the surrounding ninja joining in to besiege Tsunade, no one noticed Uchiha You in the distance.

Radiation mixed into the rainwater through the breeze. You's face was somewhat pale. He could not generate a radiation source himself; he needed to absorb the radiation power contained in sunlight. Releasing so much at once was difficult even for Uchiha You to withstand.

"Whew!"

"Today, I'll show you the terror of radiation."

After finishing all this, Uchiha You stood up. Two Hidden Rain Village ninja nearby noticed that someone had been hiding in the grass.

"So there was another coward hiding here. Too bad we found you."

Yutaro spoke mockingly. What he despised most were brats who had never been on a battlefield, who only knew how to cower when facing enemies and wait for others to rescue them.

He had killed countless people like this. His ninja blade extended as he slowly approached Uchiha You, like a cat toying with a mouse.

"Die, brat!"

The blade rose and fell!

But unlike what Yutaro had imagined, no blood splattered onto him. Instead, he met a pair of One-Tomoe Sharingan.

In an instant, Uchiha You activated his genjutsu. Terror appeared on the other man's face. He had become increasingly proficient with the Hell Viewing Technique; using the eyes as a medium, he could easily drag his opponent into an illusion.

The companion beside him saw Yutaro's motionless body, heard his screams, and noticed Uchiha You's eyes. He immediately realized that Yutaro had fallen into an illusion and promptly used a ninjutsu.

"Water Release! Water Chaos Wave!"

A stream of water burst from his mouth, aimed directly at Uchiha You.

"Fire Release! Great Fireball Technique!"

Their clash raised layers of water vapor. Although You's Great Fireball was stronger than an ordinary fireball, a fine drizzle continued falling around them.

Ninjutsu depended greatly on the environment, so Uchiha You could not suppress his opponent in a short time.

However, he was not anxious. As time passed, victory would only belong to him.

After forcing his opponent back, Uchiha You took out a kunai and killed the nearby enemy who had fallen under his genjutsu first.

The surrounding Slugs rapidly moved the wounded away from the battlefield. Tsunade had tied down most of the enemy's main force, and with the remaining Chunin present, the enemy would need to expend considerable effort to swallow them whole, perhaps even paying for it with casualties.

"Cough, cough."

After exchanging more than a dozen moves with Uchiha You, Tian Yeshui felt something wrong with his body and could not help coughing twice.

Seeing the blood staining his hands, his pupils contracted as he cried out in alarm:

"Damn brat! When did you poison me?!"

Limited by his knowledge, Tian Yeshui mistook it for poison. He immediately swallowed an antidote pill, only to find that it had no effect whatsoever.

Instead, his body began to itch, and blisters had already appeared on the skin beneath his clothes.

Unfortunately, the radioactive elements released into the area had been greatly diluted due to the vast range. Otherwise, the opponent would have died the moment he came into contact with them.

Furthermore, he had fought Uchiha You and been exposed to Fire Release, causing the radioactive elements to concentrate and worsening the damage to his body.

"Damn it!"

The antidote pill was useless, and his condition kept worsening. Knowing that he would die if this continued, Tian Yeshui hardened his heart and glared at his opponent through gritted teeth.

"Damn brat, die!"

"Water Release! Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

Gathering all his chakra and drawing in the surrounding rainwater, an enormous water dragon emerged, baring its fangs and claws.

The spectacle of the Water Dragon Bullet Technique was simply too great, drawing the attention of the surrounding Mist ninja.

They saw Tian Yeshui vomiting blood as he released the Water Dragon Bullet Technique, and their faces filled with shock. How had fighting a mere brat left him so severely wounded?

As the Water Dragon Bullet Technique took shape, his life reached its end.

The dragon's head was stained with his blood.

As the sound of a body hitting the ground rang out, Tian Yeshui's corpse lay still there, covered in pustules of varying sizes.

The power of radiation erupted and claimed his life.

Facing the out-of-control Water Dragon Bullet Technique, Uchiha You leaped away to evade it.
