"Your Chakra... is quite unique." Kisame grinned, revealing his shark-like teeth. "Let Samehada have a taste."
"Sorry, I don't have time to play with you."
Hatake Sakumo suddenly changed direction and charged toward the seemingly most dangerous of the Six Paths of Pain.
This unusual action startled Kisame for a moment, then he realized he had fallen into a trap and hurriedly gave chase.
" Banshō Ten'in!"
Deva Path Pain raised his hand, and a powerful gravitational pull drew Hatake Sakumo towards him. But just as the two were about to make contact, high-pressure water mist suddenly erupted from the back of Hatake Sakumo's armor.
Water Release: Hidden Mist Technique!
A dense mist instantly enveloped the entire area, interspersed with a large amount of freely flowing Chakra of various attributes, making it difficult for the Rinnegan to see through the general situation within for a short time.
Meanwhile, Hatake Sakumo silently circled around to the back of Naraka Path.
According to intelligence, Six Paths of Pain must first kill the Naraka Path to avoid being trapped in an endless battle of resurrection.
Click--
Without pausing, Hatake Sakumo swept his energy blade across, cleaving the Naraka Path in two.
"There!"
Konan's paper spear broke through the fog.
Hatake Sakumo dodged to the side, but was still slashed across the cheek, blood dripping down his chin. However, he seemed oblivious to the pain and continued to move through the fog.
Shinra Tensei!
The powerful repulsive force swept away the water mist.
Hatake Sakumo's figure was clearly visible, but he had already successfully broken through the first line of defense and was less than 100 meters away from the southeast exit.
Stop him!
Nagato's true form finally appeared, his slender body hovering in mid-air, his Rinnegan flashing with a cold light.
" Chibaku Tensei!"
Nagato's cold voice echoed through the Valley of the End.
The pitch-black sphere hovered in the air, like a miniature black hole, greedily devouring everything around it.
Rocks, trees, lake water, and even light cannot escape its gravity.
Hatake Sakumo felt his feet gradually leave the ground, and his body drifted uncontrollably toward the terrifying black sphere.
"Warning! Gravity anomaly, armor power output has reached critical value!"
Hatake Sakumo gritted his teeth, and the thrusters on the back of his armor spewed out blinding blue flames to counteract the gravity of the Chibaku Tensei.
His muscles trembled from overexertion, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and the energy reserve readings on his tactical goggles were dropping at a visible rate.
"53%...47%...41%..."
"We can't keep dragging this on."
Hatake Sakumo's thoughts raced in a fraction of a second, every tactical possibility flashing through his mind.
at the same time.
In the forest surrounding the Valley of the End, the First Raikage A, smashed a boulder blocking his path with a single punch and looked anxiously into the depths of the valley.
"That guy's been in there for too long."
He spoke in a gruff voice, his bronze muscles gleaming metallically in the moonlight.
The Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki, leaned against a broken tree trunk, his fingers unconsciously tapping the Ninja Blade at his waist.
"Wait five more minutes. If there's still no signal from Sakumo, we'll storm in."
The Second Tsuchikage Mu, hovered in mid-air, the light of Dust Release flickering in his palm.
"Etc!"
"Something's wrong! The Chakra flow is abnormal, and it seems like a lot of people are rushing towards this place... Oh no, they're ninjas, a lot of ninjas."
All three of them tensed up simultaneously.
In the distance, the trees began to sway unnaturally, and the snow on their crowns fell in a soft rustling sound.
The Chakra fluctuations spread out like ripples, startling birds and causing beasts to flee wherever they passed.
"They're here." Ai's fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
At the edge of the forest, the first figure appeared.
He was a Sunagakure Genin, and his face, which should have been youthful, was adorned with an exaggerated smile, his mouth stretching almost to his ears.
He skipped forward, holding not Kunai, but a toy-like wooden Shuriken.
"Long live peace! Anyone who organizes peace must..."
"Die!!!"
He screamed, his voice so sweet it sent chills down your spine.
Then came the second, the third...
Dozens of ninjas emerged from the forest, dressed in the uniforms of different ninja villages, yet all bearing the same eerie smiles.
The people from Konoha, Sunagakure, Kirigakure, and even Kumogakure, were now moving forward in perfect unison, like puppets manipulated by the same string.
"Damn it..." Hozuki Gengetsu's nonchalant expression vanished. "Has everyone in the Shinobi World gone mad?"
Wu's Dust Release technique blazed brightly. "Make your move!"
"That's right!" Ai's Lightning Release Armor and popped. "Who cares what they are? Kill them when they get here!"
A short while later.
The first Sunagakure Genin rushed in front of A, and the toy Shuriken in his hand suddenly burst forth with real Chakra light.
"Peace is the greatest!" he screamed as he stabbed at Ai's throat.
"Bang!"
Ai's fist struck first, denting the man's chest.
Blood spurted from the mouth of the Sunagakure Genin, but his smile remained unchanged; even as he was being knocked away, he was still shouting, "Long live peace..."
"Don't these guys feel any pain?" Ai shook the blood off his hands, his face grim.
More ninjas surged forward.
The group simultaneously activated their individual battle armors, the flowing liquid gradually covering their bodies, the mechanical creaking of the metal components jarring in the silent forest.
Ai's ' Thunder God ' armor was the first to be fully armed, with violent Lightning Release Chakra across its deep blue surface, and the cloud patterns on its shoulder armor gleaming with a cold metallic luster under the distorted moonlight.
He felt the surging energy inside the armor, and a cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
The constantly flashing data on his tactical goggles told him that these seemingly insane enemies 'Chakra reflexes were only at the Chunin level, not even enough for a warm-up.
The forest twisted and distorted under the blood-red moonlight, and the air was filled with suffocating Chakra fluctuations.
Ai's Thunder God armor gleamed with a dangerous blue light in the darkness. He looked down at the data flashing wildly on his tactical visor, a sinister smile twisting his lips.
Lightning Release: Thunderstorm Domain!
With a roar, A's Lightning Release Chakra erupted like a volcano.
A violent electric current exploded outwards from him, filling the air with the acrid smell of burning flesh. The nearest dozen or so enemies were instantly electrocuted into charcoal.
Yet those charred corpses still maintained eerie smiles, their mangled limbs writhing unnaturally on the ground, as if being pulled and reassembled by invisible threads.
"What a disgusting trick."
Ai spat, his bronze-colored face taut with muscles.
He whirled around, his fist crackling with lightning, and slammed into the Kumogakure missing-nin attacking from the side.
Click--
The crisp sound of bones breaking was clearly audible.
But the missing-nin grinned, his other hand already forming Hand Seals.
Lightning Release: False Darkness!
The high-voltage lightning rod exploded at extremely close range.
Even with the protection of his Lightning Armor, Ai still suffered a scorch mark on his chest. He groaned, and lightning surged from his right fist.
" Lightning Oppression Horizontal Chop!"
The missing-nin's head exploded like a watermelon, his brains mixed with golden liquid splattering onto the armor's surface, making a sizzling, corrosive sound.
Not far away, Hozuki Gengetsu's armor had completely liquefied into a giant water sphere.
" Water Release: Water Sky Assault!"
A colossal wave swept hundreds of enemies into it.
However, the scattered remains of the corpses and limbs mysteriously reassembled in the water, and pale fingers gripped Gengetsu's ankle tightly.
Water Blade Slash!
A cold glint flashed in Gengetsu's eyes, and sharp water blades instantly condensed on the surface of her armor, shattering the entangled limbs once more.
But more enemies surged forward, stepping over the corpses of their comrades. An unnatural light flickered in their empty eyes, and their lips were stretched into an arc that no human could possibly reach.
Suspended in mid-air, Wu calmly observed the battle, while the six floating cannons surrounding him simultaneously lit up with a blinding white light.
" Dust Release: Limit Break".
Several beams of light precisely pierced through key points on the battlefield, and the enemies hit were reduced to nothingness in the blinding white light.
Under the crimson moonlight, the forest surrounding the Valley of the End instantly transformed into a battlefield of carnage.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake violently.
The soil had turned into a sticky swamp, from which countless rotting arms reached out, gripping the three men's armor tightly.
Lightning Release: Thunderstorm Torrent!
A's Thunder God Armor emitted a piercing buzzing sound, and the soil within a ten-meter radius was instantly vaporized by the violent Lightning Release Chakra.
The rotting arms that were binding him convulsed violently under the high-voltage current, eventually turning into wisps of black smoke and dissipating into the air.
With a deafening explosion, Ai transformed into a streak of blue lightning, rampaging across the battlefield.
Each impact brought forth blinding flashes of electricity, and enemies in its path were smashed to pieces.
A Konoha Jonin attempted to block with Earth Style Wall, but A smashed right through the wall, his fist piercing the man's chest.
"Too slow."
Ai Leng said coldly, shaking off the blood from his hands. His tactical goggles displayed the enemy's Chakra flow, allowing him to accurately predict every attack.
Hozuki Gengetsu's armor was now fully deployed, with liquid metal forming countless tiny water blades on its surface.
He moved gracefully through the enemy ranks, each wave of his hand bringing a shower of blood. A Anbu the Kirigakure attacked from behind, Kunai aimed at his heart.
" Water Release: Water Mirror Technique."
Without turning her head, Gengetsu suddenly conjured a Water Mirror behind her.
The attack from the Anbu was perfectly deflected, and his own Kunai pierced his own throat.
Before he could finish speaking, the ground suddenly cracked open.
Several thick vines wrapped around his legs, their surfaces covered with sharp wooden spikes, attempting to pierce his armor.
Gengetsu's eyes turned cold, and the water blades on the surface of her armor spun rapidly, tearing the vines to shreds.
" Wood Release? Interesting."
The other half, suspended above the battlefield, had six floating cannons continuously firing Dust Release beams.
No matter who it is, once hit, they will be instantly broken down into atomic states.
The situation seems to be developing in a positive direction.
Just then, A's Thunder God armor emitted a sharp alarm, and an extremely dangerous red indicator flashed on the tactical visor.
A Yellow Flash struck with a speed beyond the reach of the naked eye; Minato Namikaze's Flying Thunder God Slash straight for his throat.
Lightning Release: Lightning Body Flicker!
Ai dodged to the side at the last second, but her neck was still slashed and left a bloody gash.
Minato's figure was like a ghost, disappearing immediately after a missed attack, only to reappear behind Ai, his trident kunai piercing Kunai for his back.
"Bang!"
The Lightning Armor and Kunai collided, creating dazzling sparks. Ai retaliated with a Lightning Oppression Horizontal Chop, but Minato dodged it at an incredible angle.
The two exchanged dozens of blows in the blink of an eye, each move a deadly strike.
A's Thunder God armor emitted a deep hum.
On the tactical goggles, the energy reading was stable at 78%, but the Chakra reaction of that golden figure was rapidly approaching.
"Here we go again!" Ai's muscles tensed instantly.
A golden light ripped through the night.
Minato Namikaze appeared out of thin air, his movements incredibly fast, Flying Thunder God Kunai, accompanied by a piercing whistling sound, aimed straight for his throat.
Ai leaned back abruptly, the Kunai grazing the gap at the neck of his armor, sending sparks flying.
He used the momentum to roll, gathering Lightning Release Chakra in his palm. A dazzling bolt of lightning pierced the darkness, but only struck the afterimage left by Minato.
A dozen or so Flying Thunder God Formula suddenly lit up the ground.
Ai's pupils contracted sharply, and he immediately increased the power of his Lightning Armor to its limit.
The next second, Minato attacked from all directions simultaneously, each clone wielding a spinning Rasengan.
boom--
The shockwave from the explosion snapped trees within a radius of tens of meters in half.
Amidst the smoke and dust, Ai's armor was covered in fine cracks, and a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth. He knelt on one knee, and the tactical system frantically alarmed.
Energy remaining: 61%; Chest armor damage rate: 37%.
"We must restrict his movement..." Ai gritted his teeth and stood up, his right hand secretly reaching for the tactical bag at his waist.
Meanwhile, Gengetsu is embroiled in a fierce battle.
Naruto's Complete Tailed Beast Transformation form was like a moving natural disaster, with each swing of his six tails stirring up a whirlwind.
The Water Blade Slash of the Gengetsu struck the Tailed Beast Cloak, only causing a ripple.
Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet!
A massive water dragon rose from the lake, only to evaporate into mist the instant it came into contact with the Tailed Beast Chakra.
The steam obscured her vision, Gengetsu took the opportunity to retreat, only to find that her feet sank into the suddenly softened ground.
" Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld? When...?"
Gengetsu's expression changed drastically.
But the Nine-Tails Fox's claws had already pierced through the mist and attacked. He barely managed to turn to the side, but his left arm was still torn open.
The high-altitude void is also in a predicament.
Susanoo's purple giant sword slashed with overwhelming force each time.
The uncontrolled floating cannons kept dodging, Dust Release beams left cracks on the surface of Susanoo, but they could never deliver a fatal blow.
"We must attack all weaknesses simultaneously..." A resolute glint flashed in Wu's eyes.
He suddenly stopped dodging, and all six floating cannons charged simultaneously.
Sasuke's Rinnegan immediately sensed the anomaly, Susanoo drew its bow, the black arrow locking onto the core of Mu.
"Now!" Wu suddenly clasped his hands together.
The Six Paths Dust Release suddenly changed their trajectories, intertwining into a net of light.
Boom boom boom--
Susanoo's arrows collided with the net of light, and the resulting energy storm tore the clouds within a hundred meters to shreds.
On the ground battlefield.
Taking advantage of a gap in the Minato's attack, Ai suddenly hurled dozens of specially made Kunai, Kunai, thin metal wire trailing behind it, weaving an electric net through the forest.
Lightning Release: Lightning Binding Kill!
The current surged along the metal wire, forming a huge lightning net.
Minato's Flying Thunder God Formula flickered erratically amidst the lightning, causing a momentary delay in his teleportation.
"Gotcha!"
Ai's figure transformed into lightning, and his powerful punch struck Minato's chest.
The blow landed squarely, and Minato coughed up blood before crashing through several large trees and finally stopping.
Gengetsu seized the opportunity, deliberately letting the Nine-Tails's claws pierce his shoulder, while the liquid metal took the chance to wrap around him.
" Water Release: Water Prison Technique - Modified!"
