Such a requirement.
Goenji naturally agreed.
The others in Konoha were not surprised.
They obviously all know that.
Although Goenji destroyed the moon.
It demonstrated tremendous power.
However, without experiencing it firsthand, the other ninja villages certainly wouldn't give up so easily.
They will definitely use some plans to test the strength of Goenji.
The scenes of fighting Goenji and Ōnoki were alright, of course.
It demonstrated the opponent's strength.
But so much time has passed.
They wouldn't be satisfied without experiencing the power of the Goenji.
They relinquished their dominant position.
As one of the Five Great Ninja Villages in the Shinobi World.
It's even less likely that they would simply relinquish their dominant position.
Even though Goenji has already gained their approval.
But what I saw with my own eyes was not to the point of submission.
Even Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha couldn't make the other ninja villages submit.
It's easy to imagine.
People in the Shinobi World.
Thinking doesn't stop until the very last moment.
They will not submit.
Let's go!
Goenji smiled slightly.
Then he and the Fourth Raikage went down the elevator.
We arrived at the central level, which is the largest level in the Sky Arena.
The highest level.
The others followed suit.
Their eyes revealed anticipation.
"Wow, to actually see the Raikage and Goenji in action, this trip was definitely worthwhile!"
Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane were guarding the gate when they heard that Goenji and the others were going to spar, and their faces lit up with joy.
Konoha took the lead this time.
Naturally, many ninjas arrived here.
With Goenji still there, no one dares to act recklessly in the village.
Looking at the backs of all the leaders in the Shinobi World right now.
The two of them looked happy.
I just wanted to participate in what is arguably the greatest moment of our time.
We can still see the shadows sparring now.
That would be perfect.
The final level of the Sky Arena.
A huge square.
The central area is entirely made of mud.
The audience seats were all around.
Everyone was seated in the audience.
The seats weren't full.
You could even say that I only sat for a very short time.
So, with such a large space, everyone just sat down wherever they felt comfortable.
Goenji and Raikage landed simultaneously in the center of the arena.
"Wow~ Battles before the formation of the Ninja Alliance, huh? That's so common. How can we manage without war correspondents reporting on it?"
Click~
Around them, a group of reporters were taking pictures of the center.
Including the people around you.
We must capture this epoch-making moment on screen.
All the reporters had smiles on their faces.
This is incredible!
This is a rarely seen type of reporting content.
In the past, they would have been threatened by ninjas in this situation.
We cannot disclose this information.
This time, Konoha allowed it.
"Goenji!"
Nagato sat in the audience, his Rinnegan at Goenji and the Raikage.
He also wanted to see it for himself.
The power to destroy the moon.
This isn't the moon, it's the Raikage.
I wonder if Goenji can win.
If that doesn't work.
Perhaps he can help.
That's right.
For the sake of world peace, Nagato has made a decision.
If there's anything that could diminish the prestige of Goenji, he'll help Goenji and subtly influence the Raikage.
Because that's what he saw.
The time when peace is most likely to arrive.
He didn't want Goenji to fail.
Despite their past conflicts with Goenji.
It wasn't just him.
Everyone watched with great interest.
Whether it's gathering intelligence or just enjoying the spectacle, it's a good thing.
Moreover, this battle could determine the very formation of the alliance.
Boom--!
Without a word, the Fourth Raikage tossed his white coat into the audience, into Killer B's hands.
Then, a massive amount of Chakra erupted from his body.
The lightning crackled and hissed.
The arena floor shook.
"I've arrived."
Boom--!
With a stomp of his foot, he vanished in a flash of lightning.
They appeared in front of Goenji.
Goenji's Sharingan opened.
With his own reflexes, the Raikage approached at a snail's pace.
Fire Release: Dying Sun Prison Garment
Boom--!
Without any hesitation, Goenji unleashed its ultimate attack.
Suddenly, countless flames burst forth from the five holes, enveloping Goenji.
He summoned a katana.
It was in my hand.
Sizzle--!
A chilling scene unfolded.
Under the heat of the flames, the ground began to melt gradually, turning the color of magma and flowing beneath his feet.
It even began to vaporize.
Whoosh--!
Seeing the flames erupting from his body, Raikage, enhanced by Lightning Armor lightning armor, quickly adjusted his posture, dodging the flames and moving out of the combat range.
"This flame--!"
No wonder they were able to destroy the moon!
Shocking.
He could sense it from his perception alone: if it were Taijutsu, anyone who got close to the opponent would be vaporized by the high temperature around them, leaving no room to get close.
Since that's the case, then we'll have to resort to ranged Lightning Release in actual combat.
And in the audience seats.
Everyone stared wide-eyed.
Click--!
The reporter quickly pressed the shutter button.
We need to film this scene.
"Impressive! With flames of that power, I believe he could destroy the moon!"
The reporter was utterly astonished.
The others also frowned.
This ability.
It has suppressed all Taijutsu attacks that attempt to get close.
In other words...
The Raikage's Lightning Armor reliance now seems insignificant.
Because it's impossible for the other party to get close.
Then there's no room for maneuver.
This is very disadvantageous for the Raikage.
"Hmm... Mr. Kojirō, you made the right decision. You certainly have good judgment. I can't beat this guy!"
Kakuzu spoke to the man with the gold-rimmed glasses.
The moment he saw Goenji use Ninjutsu, he felt a massive burst of Chakra.
That was the Chakra of Tailed Beast.
That's terrifying.
Moreover, the opponent's Ninjutsu was a perfect counter to his own.
Looking at the flames on the other person, they seemed to have a life of their own.
Even if he possesses the ability to Earth Grudge Fear.
It might just be a matter of one strike.
Terrifyingly high temperatures.
If it were him, there would be no chance of winning.
There is only one possibility for winning.
That means the other side has lowered their guard.
Poisoning or assassination.
However, the opponent was also a battle-hardened ninja.
It's difficult.
Nagato 'Kakuzu widened at the sight.
There's no need to guess anymore; the Raikage and Goenji are simply not on the same level.
Obito, Ōnoki, and even Minato Namikaze...
Everyone looked towards Goenji.
They had never seen this move before.
Because when we fought Kaguya before, we had already sealed it off using the Crimson Emperor Asura Realm.
"What a powerful move!"
Everyone was amazed by the power of the Goenji.
A natural counter to Taijutsu- type ninjas.
"Fire Release: Fire Fire Ten Trillion Dead Grand Funeral Array"
Goenji suddenly remembered that he had developed a Ninjutsu that he had never used before, so he decided to use it in this match.
There might not be another chance to use it in the future.
Plans can't keep up with changes.
Boom--!
An anomaly occurred on the ground, and a red-hot intense heat appeared throughout the arena. One after another, figures resembling black ash appeared in the arena, surrounding the Raikage.
[I've decided, my next book will feature a cowardly protagonist, a man born in the Otogakure.]
