A and Tsunade held nothing back from the start of their fight.
Lightning and blue flames collided and burst apart at the center of the battlefield.
Every clash shook the ground violently.
No one dared come within dozens of meters of them.
The Cloud and Konoha Ninja who had tried to help were thrown back by the first few shockwaves. After that, no one tried again.
A's eyes were bloodshot, and he breathed like a bull.
The glow of his Lightning Release Armor flickered.
Bruises and dents from Tsunade's fists marked his chest, ribs, and left arm.
The Lightning Release Armor, famed as the ultimate defense, could not fully withstand her Monster Strength.
It softened the blows, but every bone that should have broken had broken.
He glanced at the two other battles in the distance.
Blue B was tied down by Hiruzen Sarutobi.
The Ruyi Jingu Bang struck the Eight-Tails' tentacles with heavy thuds. Even that massive beast could gain no advantage against the Hokage.
Sachi had it worse.
Mito Uzumaki had pinned the partially transformed Two-Tails to the ground and was pummeling it.
Each strike of the Nine-Tails' enormous red claws tore away flesh and fragments of blue Chakra.
"I can't drag this out any longer."
A gritted his teeth, resolve flashing in his eyes.
The longer this went on, the more danger Blue B and Sachi faced.
If either of those fights was lost, he would face three Kage Level opponents at once.
He would die then, without a doubt.
He had to take Tsunade down as quickly as possible, no matter the cost.
He drew a deep breath, and lightning surged across his body once more.
"Liger Bomb!"
A lunged forward so fast he left an afterimage behind.
He spread his arms and grabbed for Tsunade.
