After smashing the bolts of lightning with a few punches,
he knew
he could not afford to keep testing the waters.
Otherwise,
he would fall to Aogetsu Hyuga!
At that thought,
Chakra surged through the Raikage's body,
and a layer of blue light
began to spread across his skin.
"Lightning Release Chakra Mode!"
But
he was not done yet.
The Raikage knew how formidable Aogetsu Hyuga was,

At Aogetsu Hyuga's cold command, flames sprang from Ryujin Jakka.
Whoosh!
The flames whipped wildly in the wind, roaring as they burned.
The Raikage scoffed inwardly. He thinks a little Fire Release can clash head-on with my Lightning Release?
As I thought, Aogetsu Hyuga is still too young!
Aogetsu Hyuga swung
