Yang Lightning Chakra Mode (II)

Back on the field, the Raikage's chakra leaked out unrestrained, countless fine lightning bolts like vigorously dancing rattan whips, easily shattering anything they touched.

But Boruto remained unafraid, maintaining his composure. He understood that the Raikage hadn't used his full strength yet; he still had the Storm Release Kekkei Genkai, and that unique black lightning.

Facing the Raikage's lightning-clad charge, Boruto reacted quickly, throwing out a dozen or so special kunai, each aimed at a different point.

The next second, the Raikage's fist arrived, the fine lightning already spreading to Boruto, but the Flying Thunder God Technique's instantaneous movement was absolute, and the Raikage's strike missed.

But the moment Boruto landed, the Raikage's fist was already there, his speed comparable to teleportation.

The wind from the punch rushed at his back, and Boruto hadn't expected the Raikage's reaction to be so outstanding, so quickly locking onto, or rather, predicting his position.

Unfortunately, Boruto was still one step ahead, dodging it, "Flying Thunder God Technique: Second Stage!"

After landing, Boruto didn't plan to passively evade anymore, positioning himself far enough away from the Raikage, and releasing a large portion of his chakra in one go.

It was a dazzling, sun-like orange-red lightning, the crackling power of thunder, the absolute swiftness and obliterating power of natural disaster.

--Yang Lightning Chakra Mode!

With the orange-red chakra enveloping him, Boruto's speed far surpassed the Raikage's. After avoiding the Raikage's punch from behind, Boruto quickly caught up, simultaneously pressing a ball of orange-red lightning into the Raikage's back.

The Raikage naturally sensed Boruto's movements, and although surprised that this kid's speed far exceeded his own, he couldn't help but remind him, "The same level of lightning power, against me in Lightning Release Chakra Mode, is surely ineffective."

His words stopped abruptly, and the sound coming from his throat was different from what he had in mind, or rather, after taking Boruto's hit, his mind was completely occupied by shock and fear.

"Ah!!!" he roared in pain, desperately squeezing his own chakra to expel the 'Yang Lightning' that had invaded his body.

But the Yang Lightning was like a maggot attached to bone, difficult to completely remove, and he could only stubbornly endure, feeling the exquisite lightning power dance in his flesh, spreading to his limbs and crawling all over his body.

A few seconds later, the Raikage had already been electrocuted by the Yang Lightning, and even the tissues of his internal organs were beginning to necrose, an unimaginable lightning strike!

After regaining his composure, the Raikage couldn't help but laugh and curse, "You bastard..."

"Watch out."

Just as he was about to use some other terrifying ninjutsu, Boruto spoke, his voice coming from behind him, which was undoubtedly a disgrace to the Raikage, known for his speed. (It was always the Raikage who blitzed others)

Boruto held an incredibly large orange-red lightning ball in one hand, the temperature inside comparable to magma, constantly reminding the Raikage that this was an attack he couldn't resist.

Understanding the situation, the Raikage fell silent, silently exiting Lightning Release Chakra Mode, turning around and looking at Boruto with a wry smile, asking, "What kind of nature transformation is that? Even my lightning can't resist it?"

Boruto also dispersed his chakra, and the ball of lightning in his hand dissipated, also allowing the Raikage to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Yang Lightning, a type of incredibly powerful lightning that exists in nature," Boruto explained. "According to records, Yang Lightning is described as such: it melts silver into liquid, turns steel into water, possesses temperatures far exceeding magma, and also has extremely strong explosive intensity.

It inherits all the characteristics of lightning, including but not limited to paralysis, restraint, burns, and annihilation... and so on."

The Raikage's worldview was truly overturned. As a village known for its lightning element, his proud Lightning Release ninjutsu was actually inferior to a nature transformation developed by a twelve-year-old.

Boruto thought: Judging by your expression, you didn't understand. After all, this is knowledge from the real world. The earliest recorded mention of it is in the Song Dynasty document 'Dream Pool Essays'.

This battle was a victory, because even the Raikage wouldn't have been confident in winning if they continued. He understood that Boruto was protecting the Raikage's 'Kage' face.

"I'm sorry, Raikage, I was rude just now," Boruto said, respectfully bowing.

The Raikage didn't really care about that, and was even more interested in asking Boruto to teach him about the nature transformation of Yang Lightning.

At this time, the other four Kage also approached. The Tsuchikage and Mizukage still had shock on their faces, and when they saw the previously arrogant kid apologizing to them as well, they stood there, unsure of what to say.

They could see that the Raikage had lost the battle just now. To be able to surpass all of the Raikage's techniques with pure lightning element, it had to be said that this kid's strength had already reached the Kage level.

"I think you all understand Boruto's abilities now, which will make our next conversation easier," Naruto said, stepping forward.

"Alright, now tell us the theme of this Five Kage Summit," Gaara asked.

"Of course, Kage, let's go back to the Hokage's meeting hall to discuss the details." Boruto used his space-time barrier once again, teleporting everyone back.

"He can even use the Flying Thunder God Technique's space-time barrier?" The Raikage's shock had barely subsided before it was refreshed again.

At this point, the Kage understood. Was Naruto showing Boruto to the Shinobi World to announce Konoha's Eighth Hokage?

"First, let's return to the previous topic. The current Shinobi World is about to face unimaginable enemies."

Shikamaru added, "Think about it, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki herself had power that surpassed the Shinobi World, yet she still built the White Zetsu army. Why?

Because Kaguya isn't the only one in the starry sky. Sasuke has been traveling for over a decade researching Kaguya's ruins. We aren't just worrying unnecessarily, we've really discovered something."

The Mizukage interjected, "Speaking of Sasuke, why isn't he here for this meeting?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere became heavy, filled with a sense of oppression, and Naruto's eyes immediately dimmed.

"What happened?!" The Kage were slightly stunned, realizing that something bad might have happened.

"This is why I said earlier that the enemies' strength is stronger than yours," Boruto said.

"Ah, Sasuke and I have already fought with the enemies. Sasuke... is still recovering in Konoha Hospital."

At this moment, the Kage finally remembered what Boruto had said earlier, that Konoha had encountered enemies twice already.

Rarely, the Kage straightened their posture, because they suddenly realized something: perhaps everything Boruto had said was true, and the Shinobi World had become restless.

"Are they really, enemies on the level of... Kaguya Ōtsutsuki...?" The Raikage's voice was a little unsteady.

The Kage had all participated in the Fourth Shinobi World War. At that time, they were just starting out, showing their potential. They didn't even have the qualifications to face powerful enemies. If Naruto hadn't shared the Nine-Tails' chakra, the Allied Shinobi Forces would have been wiped out on the battlefield.

"Maybe, maybe not. The enemies didn't show any Six Paths characteristics, but Sasuke and I were indeed defeated," Naruto said.

"The enemies are an organization called [Moon]. Currently, only three members have appeared. One is the leader, who has the ability to create a 'Four Red Yang Formation' alone and travel through different dimensions. The second is a cloaked man, who possesses Wood Release comparable to Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage.

"Including, but not limited to, ninjutsu of such high intensity as the True Several Thousand Hands and the Top Transformed Buddha," Boruto explained.

"Such absurd strength??"

"Ah, but the White-Robed Man should have been taken down by Sasuke."

These words undoubtedly made the Kage breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it wasn't an unbeatable enemy like Kaguya.

"But... that's all there is to it," Naruto sighed, as if expressing the helplessness in his heart, releasing a wave of powerless emotion.

"The last member of 'Moon' to appear is a man in white robes wearing a mask, whose defining characteristic is that he possesses the Mangekyō Sharingan."

"Hoo..." The Kage exhaled deeply.

They had fought against even the Eternal Mangekyō, which was stronger than the Mangekyō, and even the Rinnegan. Compared to those, the Mangekyō didn't seem so terrifying.

But Naruto's next words dispelled the Kage's views and erased the last bit of comfort and hope for luck in their hearts.

"That White-Robed Man, by himself, almost killed Sasuke. If Boruto hadn't been quick-witted at the last moment, the three of us would probably have died there.

In the end, it was also thanks to Boruto's Flying Thunder God Technique that we escaped the scene, thus saving our lives," Naruto said with a grim expression.

"Even a Mangekyō that the Rinnegan with tomoe couldn't defeat??" The long-silent Raikage finally spoke.

"Ah, but Sasuke and I were probably defeated because we didn't understand the enemy's eye technique. At first, the White-Robed Man displayed virtualization abilities far beyond Kamui, then he changed the damage values. In addition, the White-Robed Man could even fly using his eye technique!"

"??" The Kage frowned. "Is this really just a Mangekyō's eye technique? Such comprehensive functionality!"

"For now, that's roughly it, because the enemy didn't use their full strength. So the theme of this Five Kage Summit is to alert everyone that a new crisis has already permeated the Shinobi World, and we need targeted measures," Naruto said solemnly.
