Ah~
The wails of the Sunagakure Chunin continued.
Such an injury is like being cut in half at the waist. It would take several minutes for the Chunin to die from excessive blood loss, during which time he would still feel pain.
"What... what is this...?"
"What kind of Ninjutsu is that?!"
The Sunagakure Jonin witnessed the entire process of Shin'un unleashing Lightning Release: Lightning Pillar, and also saw with his own eyes that his own Chunin was only affected, his entire lower body instantly turning to ashes.
At that moment, the wailing of Chunin from his own village reached his ears. The Sunagakure Shin'un, Jonin Shin-un who was not far away, immediately rushed to the side of the Chunin who had been cut in two.
" Toshihiko!"
Calling out the name of Sunagakure Chunin, the Sunagakure Jonin hurriedly checked the injuries and tried to treat them.
After the inspection, the ninja felt a chill in his Jonin.
The limbs below the waist were completely gone; such an injury would be of no use even to the most experienced medical-nin in the village.
After a moment of silence, the Jonin heeded the Sunagakure Chunin's plea and relieved him of the agony of being cut in half at the waist.
Upon seeing this, Shin'un narrowed his eyes slightly.
"What a ruthless person..."
Although he was inwardly impressed, Shin'un had no intention of holding back.
While the Sunagakure Jonin was checking the Chunin's injuries, he had already prepared his second Ninjutsu.
Lightning Release: Lightning Net!
After a brief moment of preparation, relying on the abundant Chakra within his body, Shin'un once again used one of the Ninjutsu techniques he had previously conceived of but had never used due to its excessive Chakra consumption.
"Sizzle~"
With his body surging with electricity, Shin'un, relying on his superb Chakra control, wove it into a large net of electricity and Jonin down upon the distant Sunagakure Jonin.
Looking at the massive net of lightning overhead that covered an area of nearly a hundred meters around them, the Sunagakure Jonin had no choice but to use Ninjutsu to fight back.
" Wind Release: Vacuum Wave!"
The Sunagakure Jonin gathered his Chakra and spat out a solid wind blade, which shot into the sky and rushed towards the Lightning Net in the sky.
Impacted by the sharp wind blades, the Lightning Net was lifted high, and the two completely different energies collided violently.
Unfortunately, Wind Release counters Lightning Release, and in the end, Wind Blade prevailed, creating a large hole in the massive and scattered Lightning Net.
The Sunagakure Jonin spotted the large hole created by the wind blades, leaped up, and successfully escaped from the area covered by the Lightning Net.
In the end, they escaped unscathed from the Lightning Net woven by Shin'un.
"It seems this Ninjutsu still has significant flaws."
Seeing that the Sunagakure Jonin escaped successfully, Shin'un was not disappointed.
Although [ Lightning Release Mastery ] granted him extraordinary Lightning Release talent, it was impossible to guarantee that every Lightning Release Shin'un developed would be as successful as Lightning Release: Lightning Pillar.
"Alright, let's try the next Ninjutsu."
Normally, opportunities to recklessly Chakra and test Ninjutsu like today are rare, so we must cherish this opportunity.
Shin'un clasped his hands together again, channeling all his Chakra, preparing to test his third Ninjutsu.
Lightning Release: Lightning Snake!
A large ball of lightning appeared in Shin'un's palm, and as the surface of this current rippled, more than a dozen snake heads emerged from it.
A dozen or so lifelike Lightning Snake, their scales incredibly realistic, coiled around Shin'un's body, their tails all connected to a large mass of electricity in Shin'un's hand.
With a thought, the dozen or so Lightning Snake coiled around Shin'un seemed to come alive, their tongues flicking out from their mouths, and their dozen or so snake eyes all looking at the Sunagakure Jonin in front of them.
"Hiss!"
The faint hissing of snakes seemed to echo in his ears as more than a dozen Lightning Snake hovered in the air, Jonin towards the Sunagakure together.
"What!"
"Another Ninjutsu I've never seen before?"
"That brat uses Chakra like it's free, unleashing three powerful Ninjutsu in a row?"
The Sunagakure Jonin had just landed when he immediately saw more than a dozen lightning Lightning Snake, seemingly capable of flight, floating in the air and charging towards him with their gaping maws.
Gritting his teeth and cursing under his breath, the Sunagakure Jonin no choice but to dodge the dozen or so Lightning Snake charging towards him.
"Boom!"
"Hiss!"
"..."
Shin'un stood still, remotely controlling the snake heads at the other end of the large ball of lightning in his hand, connected by more than a dozen Lightning Snake, to attack the Sunagakure Jonin.
Watching the Sunagakure leap and Jonin amidst the pursuit and interception of more than a dozen Lightning Snake, Shin'un suddenly had the illusion of playing a video game.
The large cluster of lightning connecting all the Lightning Snake tails in the palm of his hand seemed to be a controller, and the dozen or so snake heads became game characters controlled by Shin'un, while the Sunagakure Jonin was the game target that needed to be defeated.
Shaking his head, Shin'un banished the random thoughts from his mind and focused on controlling Lightning Snake to launch an attack.
In less than half a minute, the Sunagakure Jonin was bitten on the thigh by one of the Lightning Snake that were surrounding him.
Then, a dozen or so menacing Lightning Snake swarmed forward, surrounding the Sunagakure Jonin.
"Boom!!!"
After the deafening roar, only a huge crater remained, with the charred remains of the Sunagakure Jonin scattered all over the ground.
"Hiss~"
Seeing this, Shin'un dispersed the large ball of electricity in his palm.
Looking at the destruction caused by the Ninjutsu before him, Shin'un made his assessment.
"Hmm~, this Ninjutsu also consumes a lot of Chakra, but it's more practical than the last one."
Shin'un's inspiration for developing Lightning Release: Lightning Snake came from another Ninjutsu.
Lightning Release: Lightning Tiger Massacre.
The ninja releases a dog-shaped electrical artifact, which can still be controlled by the ninja even after leaving their body to attack.
In the original work, this Ninjutsu first appeared in the hands of Kakashi Hatake.
As luck would have it, this Ninjutsu was among Orochimaru's personal collection of Ninjutsu.
After learning it, Shin'un retained its advantage of being able to track enemies and made modifications based on the original design.
The original canine-shaped electric current has been modified into a more flexible and Chakra- saving serpentine shape, and the attack to chase down enemies has changed from a single attack to the ability to unleash more than ten attacks.
And unlike the previous one which had distance restrictions.
After Shin'un's modifications, as long as there is enough Chakra, the dozen or so snake bodies emerging from the lightning condensed in the palm can extend indefinitely until they hit the target or the user and cancel the Ninjutsu.
Using the Chakra he had accumulated over the past month, Shin'un successfully tested the three Lightning Release he had developed, two of which demonstrated considerable value, making him very happy.
However, despite his joy, Shin'un still stepped forward to check if the Sunagakure Jonin was dead.
Even Lord Madara could have his heart ripped out, so he didn't want to be caught off guard and suffer a setback.
His gaze swept back and forth across the craters created by the dozen or so Lightning Snake. Seeing the scattered fragments of Sunagakure Jonin corpses, Shin'un couldn't help but inwardly complain.
"While Lightning Release Lightning Pillar: Lightning Serpent is less powerful than Lightning Release: Lightning Snake, it's still devastating in normal-level ninja battles..."
"Like Lightning Release: Lightning Pillar, it's completely useless under normal circumstances..."
