The Gold Dust Shield team received a bye in the previous round and advanced directly to this round.
When Mukai the field, she just brushed past Uchiha Inabi, who was leaving the field.
The other person immediately made a throat-slitting gesture at him:
"That arrogant brat from Sunagakure dares to act wildly in front of the Hokage? He's got a death wish!"
Konoha is not a place for you to run wild.
I hope you can win this match. I'll show you what real strength is!
When has Mukai ever been afraid of verbal abuse?
He broke the other party's defenses with just one sentence:
"Are you going to such lengths to Hiruzen Sarutobi to show off the magnanimity of the Uchiha?"
Mukai picked at his ear and casually added:
"I've heard that the best Uchiha members defeat their opponents with sheer strength. Why are you so talkative? Are you skilled in verbal sparring?"
Uchiha Inabi was no match for Mukai comebacks.
He was caught in a dilemma by Mukai; he couldn't argue back, nor could he remain silent, leaving him only to rage helplessly.
Mukai knew about Uchiha Inabi's strength in the anime.
But he didn't care.
The reason is that he is stronger!
Upon taking the stage, Mukai had already unfurled the scroll containing the Hierarch Mecha.
As he walked, a brand-new mech, equipped with a computing core, automatically donned itself in sync with his movements.
Upon first seeing Mukai in his stylish Hierarch Mecha, Gold Dust Shield Gold Dust Corps, was momentarily stunned.
However, he only believed that the puppet on Mukai's body was made from scorpions:
"You're such a loser, Mukai. Did Young Master Scorpion give you this tattered outfit as charity?"
Wow, that looks really cool.
Don't cry when I break it!
I'll teach you a lesson about what it truly means to respect the Kazekage!
As he spoke, four solid, pale golden spheres, each fifteen centimeters thick, formed around him.
An enormous Gold Dust shield with strange Shukaku patterns on its surface.
These four shields, combining offense and defense, are the core of his victory over the enemy.
In the Gold Dust Squad, his role is also that of a defensive and decisive heavy artilleryman.
These Gold Dust Shield aren't just for defense!
"Form the Seal of Confrontation, the competition begins!"
With the referee's whistle, the internal duel within Sunagakure officially began.
Gold Dust Shield wanted to continue provoking Mukai with words, but then he saw behind the other party's strange puppet armor...
Many nozzles opened, and these nozzles began to spray out a bluish-white stream of air.
" Komushi, calculate the movement trajectory and lock onto the direction the opponent might evade."
"If you propel yourself forward with your feet three centimeters off the ground, at what speed will it not be fatal?"
With a vast number of computing units, the intelligent Komushi agent can perform calculations at an incredibly fast speed:
"Kinetic energy E=½mv², Hierarch Mecha plus host weight 100 kg."
To penetrate and solidify the seal, it requires an equivalent of a 20cm thick high-density Gold Dust Shield.
The material's compressive strength of 500 MPa needs to be overcome, and the calculated critical speed is approximately Mach 1.5.
"Very good, using this thrust, mobilize the wind-style Chakra."
After breaking the Gold Dust Shield, use the counter-force to knock it off the field.
" The Komushi understands."
These exchanges all took place in Mukai's consciousness.
To the Gold Dust Shield and the audience, Mukai, dressed in his handsome and stylish armor,
She simply stood on the field with her legs apart and her hands clasped in front of her, striking a pose reminiscent of the Aurora's Forgiveness.
Of course, the world is unaware of the Saint Seiya meme.
"Start up!"
As a large amount of compressed air was violently ejected from the eight nozzles,
A white-hot wave of energy swirled around Mukai.
He had been slightly lifted off the ground by the thrust of the small nozzle.
Now, an intelligent Komushi acts as his dynamic balancer and posture adjuster.
It's no longer as embarrassing as when I rescued Konan in the Land of Rain.
The newly constructed computing nodes of the Hierarch Mecha itself,
It can also complete precise control of various parts within microseconds.
This mecha is more than just a cool-looking device.
Mukai moved.
In the instant the enormous thrust was unleashed, the air around him and the dust on the ground were compressed into a dense shockwave.
Centered on Mukai, the explosion spread out in a ring, with the Hierarch Mecha, primarily in gold and red, bursting forth from a standstill!
It took less than 0.3 seconds for the Mukai a standstill to breaking the sound barrier.
If it weren't for the protection of the brand-new Hierarch Mecha, even though his body was stronger than that of an ordinary person, he would still have been injured.
Uchiha Inabi, who was watching from the sidelines, activated her One-Tomoe Sharingan.
In slow motion, he was fortunate enough to witness a scene that shocked him:
Around this cool mecha, the air was forcibly compressed, forming a cone-shaped shock wave with a pale purple hue.
We've only seen the visuals so far; the audio hasn't arrived yet.
As Mukai charged at Mach 1.5, the extremely high speed caused the outline of his mech to...
Even with the Sharingan's dynamic vision, it still left a blurry afterimage in the air.
Wherever it passed, the scattered Gold Dust on the ground was plowed up by the airflow.
This was originally a hidden piece left by the Gold Dust Shield.
When Mukai attacks, these Gold Dust can be used to imprison or ambush him.
However, Mukai's speed was simply too fast, exceeding the speed of his nerve reflexes.
If anyone present could keep up with this speed, besides the Uchiha clan who had activated their Sharingan, only Minato Namikaze could.
Shisui Uchiha in the stands was also shocked by this sudden burst of high speed.
This speed actually exceeds the speed at which Mukai's own nerves can react.
Fortunately, he had the AI agent, Komushi, which received an epic upgrade.
While making a high-speed impact, the Komushi also mobilized Wind Release Chakra in front of the Hierarch Mecha to break through air resistance to the maximum extent.
The golden Gold Dust was swept up and ejected into a barrage of high-speed projectiles.
Even the Gold Dust Shield not far away was now trembling slightly.
It seemed to be frightened by this unreasonable kinetic energy.
Even Uchiha Inabi, who had activated her single Tomoe, was somewhat caught off guard, let alone facing all of this Gold Dust Shield.
Mukai simply maintained this double-fisted stance, relying entirely on the Hierarch Mecha's own defense and kinetic energy to defeat the enemy.
He didn't even bother to flick his arm blade.
With a massive kinetic impact, the opponent's prized reinforced Gold Dust Shield was pierced through like a plasterboard.
After breaking through the first layer of Gold Dust Shield, the intelligent Komushi slightly changed the angle of its nozzles as planned.
Mukai used the force released from his fists to change direction, sending the Gold Dust Shield flying directly between the two shields!
Even before the astonished Gold Dust Shield flew into the audience, the sharp pain in his chest hadn't yet reached his brain.
The deafening roar that swept across the entire arena finally began.
The sharp sonic boom made the audience's eardrums hurt, and the sound didn't even reach them until after the Gold Dust Shield was knocked away!
Just how fast is it?
As the remaining three Gold Dust Shield crumbled, only Mukai remained on the field, maintaining this pose.
One strike!
He shattered the renowned Gold Dust Shield with a single strike!
