Chapter 878: Confrontation of Poison and Thunder! (Combined Chapter)
"Lightning Release: Black Panther!"
On the desert Battlefield, a Panther formed of Black Lightning soared into the air again.
However, its Body Size was two Laps smaller than the previous one, and its 'pouncing' Target was not the purple Poison Mist, but a gray-white Cement Giant.
[Roar!]
Deafening Thunder replaced the roaring Panther Roar, echoing throughout the In the Court accompanied by explosive Black Lightning.
This was the difference between Black Lightning and Ordinary Lightning Release.
The former not only had the Sound Burst that enhanced attack Power, which the latter lacked, but also caused a much greater Paralysis Effect when hitting the Target.
Generally speaking, if a Ninja was affected by these black Electro, even a single strand would cause them to instantly lose Combat Capability.
When the Smoke and Dust from the Explosion dissipated, many Cloud Hidden Ninja around showed expressions of Delight.
This was because they saw that the Cement Giant, which had been so imposing and charging wildly before, had now been blown into Cement Fragments all over the Ground.
"So powerful, as expected of Lord Ay!"
"That's right, he's the Lord who is about to become the Fourth Raikage after all!"
"Lord Ay, long live!"
The Cloud Hidden Ninja were overjoyed, and the Ninja from Takigakure and Kusagakure also looked at Ay, who had returned to the Ground, with admiration.
"Shut up!"
Ay heard this but felt no happiness. Instead, he turned and roared in Anger, "My Father was just Captured Alive, he's not dead yet!"
"Uh—"
The Cloud Hidden Chunin who was targeted immediately panicked and quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, Third Raikage Lord is definitely fine!"
But just then, the Cement Blocks, large and small, first silently softened into a Mud Form, and then quickly converged towards the Center Area.
This scene was naturally discovered by many Ninja immediately, leading to continuous Exclamations.
Ay, hearing the Commotion from over there, subconsciously turned his head to look, his face full of shock: "How is that possible?"
But he immediately thought of the Water Transformation Technique of the Ghost Moon Clan, and the Sand Transformation Technique of Crocodile mentioned in the Intelligence.
"Earth? No, could it be Petrification Technique?!"
In the blink of an eye, all the Liquid Cement condensed into a Strong man who looked like a Giant, estimated to be three and a half meters tall.
"Zehahaha, you really scared me!"
Teach looked at Ay opposite him, who was surrounded by a blazing Aura and Lightning, and laughed loudly, "So that's how it is, your Ability looks powerful, but it actually can't hurt me at all!"
Because he was part of the Construction Department, he hadn't received the Intelligence File provided by Im before.
Therefore, he didn't know much about the Ninja World.
Precisely because of this, it further highlighted his gambler's Mindset, willing to take unknown risks for the sake of leaving the Construction Department, for more Freedom, and higher Power and Influence and Status.
"Why? Why is this happening?"
"Regardless of whether it's Earth Transformation Technique or Petrification Technique, the essence should be Earth Release, so how could my Black Lightning be useless!"
Ay's face was covered in shock and Doubt.
But he immediately recalled the scene when he and his Father first encountered Crocodile. At that time, there was also a Situation where Lightning Release was ineffective against Sand Control Technique.
Later, he consoled himself, thinking that perhaps the opponent's Sand Control Technique had reached a level that Ordinary Lightning Release could not Counter.
So he specifically used Black Lightning just now.
Who would have thought that even 'the Strongest Lightning Release in the Ninja World', Black Lightning, was useless!
Precisely because of this, Ay now felt like his Worldview had been impacted.
Wasn't the Counter between Chakra Natures a Truth?
"Because this Lord's Ability is not Ninjutsu!"
Just as Ay was racking his brain, a voice that was too familiar suddenly came from the sky.
He suddenly looked up and couldn't help but blurt out, "Father!"
At this moment.
Ay finally saw his Father, whom he had longed for day and night, the current Third Raikage of Cloud Hidden Village. At the same time, Hanzo also walked over with Yahiko and others.
Because Hanzo was also full of Doubt at the moment, he wanted to see what the Situation was exactly.
Are they still fighting?
If not, should the Two-Tails he obtained be returned?
Hmph, how could that be possible!
Meanwhile.
Facing his Son's call, the Third Raikage in the sky did not respond immediately.
Instead, he scanned the entire Battlefield, found that Army Soldiers and Ninja were still fighting in the distance, and then roared towards the sky, his Veins bulging in his Neck.
"This Old Man, the Third Raikage, now orders all Ninja to stop Combat!"
"And the Army Soldiers of the World Government, This Old Man has been ordered by Admiral Akainu to specifically stop this War!"
The Third Raikage's Voice turned into a Sound Wave that swept in all directions.
Wherever it reached, both the Ninja side and the Army side showed hesitation, then slowly separated while maintaining Vigilance, confronting each other.
For a time, the Gunshots subsided, the Killing Sound dissipated, and this Desert slowly returned to its usual tranquility.
"Father, what is this...?"
Ay looked up at the Third Raikage in confusion.
At the same time, he wondered what the World Government the other party mentioned was?
And who was Admiral Akainu? How could he order his Father, the Third Raikage?
"Ay, immediately lead all Ninja to retreat two kilometers away!"
Only then did the Third Raikage land back on the Ground and look at his Son, issuing the Order.
However, he was surprised to find that the latter did not immediately agree, but showed hesitation. He immediately questioned with displeasure, "What are you doing? Didn't you hear This Old Man's words?"
But the person who answered him was not Ay, but Hanzo, who had been silent all along.
"I think he should be doubting if you are real, or if it's possible that your Mind has been controlled by some Ninjutsu."
This was actually what he was thinking as well.
Indeed.
Ay nodded.
"You!"
This made the Third Raikage instinctively show Anger.
But then he thought about his current actions, which indeed seemed illogical to those who didn't know the Truth.
He could only take a Deep Breathing to suppress the Rampage in his Heart.
"Don't worry, This Old Man is This Old Man, and I haven't been controlled by anyone. It's just that this Matter cannot be explained clearly in a few words. After you retreat, This Old Man will explain it to you in detail!"
But who would have thought that Hanzo would push his luck: "Then can we check you, and then temporarily Restraint your Body with the Body Paralysis Technique?"
"Are you looking for death?"
The Third Raikage narrowed his Eyes expressionlessly, and a chilling Killing Intent and Aura overflowed from his Body.
"Hehehe."
Hanzo, however, met his Gaze without showing weakness and sneered, "This Old Man thinks this Proposal is reasonable. Who knows what Situation you are in right now."
"..."
Teach, who seemed to be ignored by everyone on the side, felt a bit speechless looking at the increasingly Nervous Atmosphere.
He seemed quite redundant right now?
What should he do next? Should he fight? He actually wanted to keep fighting. These Ninja were all walking Merit Points.
But that damn Third Raikage mentioned Admiral Akainu.
If he were to attack again, he would most likely offend this Military Brass, which was definitely not okay. He still wanted to mix in the Military in the Future.
"Hey, that's right, did Admiral Akainu also arrive in This World?"
Teach's Eyes lit up, and he immediately turned to look at Lou Lan City in the distance. Perhaps the other party was there right now.
He immediately stopped paying attention to this group of Ninja and quickly transformed into a mass of Powdered Cement, flying away.
He wanted to see if he could talk to Akainu based on his performance just now and find a way to get the other party to transfer him from the Construction Department to the Military.
And Teach's action also broke the increasingly oppressive Atmosphere at the scene.
The Third Raikage withdrew his angry Gaze from Hanzo, glanced at the mass of Cement Dust flying towards the High Altitude, and secretly marveled in his Heart.
"As expected of the World Government, this person should also be a Devil Fruit User. Judging from his Ability performance, he seems to be like the previous Crocodile, also a Logia System called the 'Strongest'. But why doesn't he have the Coat of Justice representing Officers?"
His thoughts flashed by, and then he looked at Hanzo again and asked coldly, "How did you, this Old Poison, end up here?"
"Hehehehe."
Hanzo said with a chuckle, "Of course, your excellent Son specifically invited me to save you, his Father, who was Captured Alive by the Enemy. So your Attitude had better be polite~"
The Third Raikage glanced at Ay, who was still silently observing him.
He was naturally happy about his Son's actions to save him with all his Strength, but it was a pity that the Opponent was truly Despair-inducing.
"What was the Price?"
"What did this Idiot Son of mine give you to make you, this Old Poison who hasn't left the Country of Rain for half your life, run to a place like the Desert?"
While Speaking, the Third Raikage quickly scanned through the various high-Value things in Cloud Hidden Village in his Mind.
Money, Food, or Weapons?
Or a certain Six Paths Ninja Tool?
Or perhaps...
"Hehehehehe, it was nothing much, just the Two-Tails that your Cloud Hidden Village has no use for~~"
Hanzo's eyes showed triumph. Thinking of this, his Mood was particularly good.
A Tailed Beast was enough to make these Great Ninja Villages Scruple and not dare to easily treat his Amegakure as a Battlefield and cause harm.
"What?!"
But this made the Third Raikage first stunned, then roared in Rampage, "Ay, you Idiot, don't you Understand the Value of a Tailed Beast!!"
"I... I think you are much more important than a Two-Tails..."
Ay, facing such a Father, couldn't care less about the Doubt in his Heart and quickly replied.
At the same time, he glanced at Yahiko behind Hanzo. There was another idea in his Heart that he didn't say out loud at the moment.
That was, if he successfully rescued his Father, he planned to find an opportunity to snatch back the Two-Tails or the Two-Tails Jinchuriki.
Ay's idea was, I did Promise to give you the Two-Tails, and I kept my Promise and gave you the Two-Tails, but I didn't say I couldn't snatch it back!
The Third Raikage, who was Familiar with him, followed his Gaze and found the Young Man-like Yahiko.
Such a Sense of Oppression made Yahiko subconsciously take two steps back, and at the same time, the Muscle all over his Body involuntarily tensed up.
But immediately, Hanzo took a step sideways to block the Third Raikage's Gaze for him.
At this moment.
In Yahiko's Eyes, Hanzo's Back View was so tall, reliable, and full of Safety.
It even overlapped a bit with Master Jiraiya's Back View.
"Raikage, this transaction is settled. Since you are back now, This Old Man has no need to stay here anymore!"
As soon as he finished Speaking.
Hanzo was about to take Yahiko, Nagato, Konan, and the hundred Rain Ninja back to the Village.
But obviously, things wouldn't be that simple.
"You can leave, but that Two-Tails Jinchuriki must be left for This Old Man!"
Indeed, the Third Raikage's threatening Voice sounded from behind. This made Hanzo grip the Chain Scythe in his hand and slowly Turn Sideways.
"What, does your Cloud Hidden want to violate the Promise?"
His Voice, which sounded a bit rough through the Gas Mask, was so cold and emotionless, full of Killing Intent.
"This Old Man is the Raikage, and I don't remember having any Promise with you. As for Ay, he doesn't have the Qualification to represent Cloud Hidden yet!"
The Third Raikage took a step forward and looked at Hanzo faintly, saying, "This Old Man advises you, there are some things that your Rain Hidden Village cannot handle."
He had already agreed with the World Government to lead the entire Cloud Hidden Village to join the World Government and accept the direct Jurisdiction of the Sea Ninja Village.
However, this News was not to be made public for the time being.
It would wait until Cloud Hidden Village united with Sunagakure to Suppress Stone Village before announcing the existence of the World Government to the entire Ninja World.
In other words.
In the end, all Ninja Villages would definitely join the World Government.
But in the Third Raikage's opinion, the Treatment after joining, besides individual Strength and Identity, would mostly be linked to the Strength and Value of each Village.
Then the Tailed Beasts would definitely have extremely high Weight.
Although all Tailed Beasts were destined to belong to the World Government, it was another Matter which Ninja Village offered the Tailed Beast.
Originally, Cloud Hidden Village, as a Great Ninja Village, had the Ability to offer two Tailed Beasts.
But now Hanzo was going to take one away, and the Third Raikage naturally refused to agree.
So, this Two-Tails Jinchuriki, the other party had to leave today, whether they wanted to or not, there was no room for negotiation!
"Just a mere Two-Tails, This Old Man can handle it."
However, Hanzo also had no intention of backing down. This Two-Tails definitely could not be returned. His Body immediately erupted with astonishing Aura and Killing Intent.
These Powerhouses of the Ninja World.
Just because they hadn't learned to transform Aura, Killing Intent, Spirit, etc., into a Power like Haki, didn't mean their Aura, Killing Intent, Spirit, etc., were weak.
Like Bud and Esdeath from the Imperial Arms World, and other First-Rate Experts, before joining the World Government.
They could also actively release their Aura or perceive relatively strong Killing Intent from a distance.
In the Court.
The Third Raikage and Hanzo confronted each other from a Distance of about ten meters, their surging Aura implicitly turning into a Strong Wind that blew away the Yellow Sand on the Ground.
The surrounding Cloud Hidden Ninja also began to stare at Yahiko and the Rain Ninja with hostility.
And the Ninja from Hidden Grass and Waterfall Hidden first looked at each other, then slowly retreated backward. They didn't want to participate in this Combat that had nothing to do with them.
It was just that many people were very confused. How did things develop like this?
Weren't they responding to the Declaration of War from several Daimyo to conquer the Land of Wind and Sunagakure?
"Ay, take them two kilometers away. You don't need to participate in this Combat!"
At this moment, the Third Raikage glanced at his Idiot Son and instructed.
In his opinion, his own Ninja Village should no longer suffer meaningless Casualties here.
It was better to preserve their Strength to deal with the upcoming Combat, and hopefully, they could persist until the World Government unified the Ninja World, and then join him in conquering the fascinating Multiverse.
"Yahiko, you guys go back to Rain Hidden Village first. Also, if anything unexpected happens to This Old Man, I'll entrust the Village to you!"
Hanzo also turned his head and said seriously.
Clearly, this 'Rain Hidden Demigod' also had to treat this Duel with the Third Raikage with caution.
Because he had already sensed that the other party's Aura was stronger than his own.
As for how much stronger, he didn't Understand.
"Yes!"
Yahiko nodded heavily, then decisively turned around and used Body Flicker to leave with Nagato, Konan, and the hundred Rain Ninja.
At the same time, Ay also led a group of Cloud Hidden Village Ninja to follow.
They even took advantage of their numbers to surround the hundred or so Rain Ninja in the middle.
Seeing this, Yahiko frowned, knowing well that if they left like this, they would inevitably be besieged by these thousands of Cloud Hidden Ninja once they reached a certain Distance.
Although he was now the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, he wasn't confident in dealing with such a massive Ninja Army.
Not to mention, he also had to consider Nagato and Konan.
And these hundred Rain Ninja were also valuable Wealth to Rain Hidden Village. He didn't want them to be annihilated in this Desert.
So Yahiko stopped when he retreated to a Position less than a kilometer away.
Because this Distance was far enough, yet not completely out of Hanzo's Line of Sight.
In this way.
As long as the Duel over there hadn't decided the Victory or Defeat, these Cloud Hidden Ninja wouldn't dare to act rashly.
After all, who could be sure that the Third Raikage would definitely defeat Hanzo?
That was the man who had been regarded as the 'Peak of the Ninja World' for many years!
"What a smart Kid/Brat..."
Ay praised in his Heart when he saw this scene, and he wanted to snatch... bring Yahiko back to Cloud Hidden Village even more. It would be a pity to leave such a Genius in the small Rain Hidden Village!
