Dust Release could reduce everything to fundamental particles. Let's see how you block it this time!
Ōnoki wasted no words. His anger at this man wearing an Akatsuki uniform had already reached its limit.
He immediately raised his hands and formed hand seals.
"Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"
A small, milky-white, transparent cube instantly appeared before Ōnoki's raised hands.
At the same moment that little cube appeared, an identical cube abruptly materialized where the Masked Man stood, only this one was large enough to enclose him entirely.
The core inside the cube flashed, and a violent but silent explosion erupted. Dust and smoke filled the entire cube, blocking the five of them from seeing inside.
"Hmph! He's as good as dead!"
Ōnoki snorted, speaking with some satisfaction.
He had never seen anyone capable of blocking Dust Release. Even Kage on his level could only dodge it, not withstand it.
Having taken his full Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique, this Masked Man surely wouldn't have so much as a scrap left!
But when the cube vanished and the dust and smoke inside disappeared with it, the sight before them stunned everyone.
He was fine, completely fine. The Masked Man stood there without a scratch!
Not only was he unhurt, but even his clothes and mask remained completely intact!
"H-how is that possible?!"
Of them all, Ōnoki found the sight before him the hardest to accept.
His eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets as he shouted in disbelief:
"My Dust Release clearly hit you while you were completely defenseless! How could you be completely unharmed?!"
Being defeated was nothing, but Dust Release was Ōnoki's greatest pride.
His opponent had taken a hit from the technique he was proudest of, yet hadn't suffered a damn thing.
