Chapter 205: Chapter 205: Kill Me, Right Now.
Without a single cloud in the sky, the scorching sunlight shone unimpeded on the blood-soaked ground, releasing light and heat without restraint.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood. Some injured ninjas sat on the ground, resting with their eyes closed under the treatment of Slug Sage.
Without a doubt, the winner of this direct confrontation was Konohagakure.
However, in this battle, Konohagakure also paid a heavy price.
A gentle breeze blew, carrying a strong smell of blood. Raijin rubbed his eyes, feeling a bit uncomfortable.
It was his first time using the full power of the Mangekyou Sharingan. It felt fine while using it, but afterward, the soreness set in.
"Feeling uncomfortable?"
A warm little hand held his hand hanging by his side. Raijin turned his head to look at Tsunade.
"I'm okay."
Raijin smiled slightly at Tsunade.
"Okay? Really?"
Tsunade scoffed and pulled Raijin to a shady spot.
She placed Raijin's head on her lap, and her hands began to glow with a soft green light.
"The Mangekyou Sharingan is indeed powerful, but its strong eye power can cause damage to the eyes and the nerves connected to them, which is hard to recover from. Until we find a way to heal this damage or improve your overall physical condition, try not to use the Mangekyou Sharingan, okay?"
The unique energy of Senjutsu flowed into Raijin's body with Tsunade's massage, soothing the visual nerves slightly damaged by the Mangekyou Sharingan.
Tsunade didn't ask Raijin why he used the Mangekyou Sharingan like that.
Although the storm clouds covering several kilometers were indeed terrifying, and the operation of gathering all the storm clouds and the lightning within them was eye-opening, using such a technique here felt like using a sledgehammer to kill a mosquito.
After all, such a technique was more than enough to destroy a village.
But Tsunade understood why Raijin did it.
And because she knew, she chose to remain silent.
Asking such a question now would be like rubbing salt in the wound.
So, she just needed to help Raijin relieve the consequences of using such a technique.
"How come you, a Senju, know so much about our Uchiha's Sharingan?"
Raijin didn't open his eyes, just raised an eyebrow slightly, with a mischievous smile on his lips.
"Hmph, after training for so many years and still not being able to beat you, I had to study why you're so strong."
Tsunade snorted disdainfully and said casually to Raijin.
"Heh, I knew it, the Senju clan never gives up on defeating the Uchiha!"
Raijin enjoyed Tsunade's massage while accusing her with mock anger.
"Yes, indeed. By the way, count how many times you owe me, and pay it back slowly when we get home."
Tsunade raised an eyebrow and said slowly to Raijin. By the time she finished speaking, she was already close to Raijin's ear.
The warm breath on Raijin's ear didn't bring the expected romantic feeling, but instead, a chill spread through his body.
"Kill me now."
Raijin pursed his lips and said firmly to Tsunade.
Tsunade laughed out loud when she heard this, raising her chin slightly and looking at Raijin with a doting expression.
Some people, they look strong, but sometimes, they're not as strong as they seem...
...
...
"Do you think what you see, hear, and sense is real?"
Yunma's figure appeared in front of the panting Hozuki Isshin.
"Huff... I'll... kill you!"
Hozuki Isshin disrupted his own chakra again, and the Yunma in front of him instantly disappeared.
"Honestly, your swordsmanship is really good, but compared to our Konohagakure's Thunder Sword Saint, there's still a gap."
Yunma's voice came from behind Hozuki Isshin, and he closed his eyes in despair.
Really...
It's like being toyed with like a monkey.
This feeling of powerlessness... really...
"After all, you probably can't defeat a Jinchuriki with a single full-strength strike, right?"
Several vines extended from the ground, quickly binding Hozuki Isshin's body.
In an instant, Hozuki Isshin's body was lifted off the ground, hanging in the air in a large shape.
"Your brother probably died just as helplessly, right?"
Yunma chuckled, taking light steps as if there were stairs under his feet, slowly approaching Hozuki Isshin.
"Break!"
Hozuki Isshin bit his tongue hard, using the physical pain to force himself to calm down.
The chakra flowing in his body was disrupted again, but unlike before, this time the scene in front of him didn't disappear.
Is this... real? How is that possible?! Not to mention how this guy could use Wood Release.
How did these vines grow out of thin air?
Is there really... no logic at all? The doubt in Hozuki Isshin's eyes was completely seen by Yunma.
But now, Yunma had no intention of explaining to Hozuki Isshin.
He had said so much to make Hozuki Isshin lose his mind.
He had used so many layers of Genjutsu to make Hozuki Isshin habitually think that everything in front of him was Genjutsu.
All of this was a setup for this moment.
Turning illusion into reality, creating form from the formless.
This is the secret technique passed down through generations! A plain Kunai appeared in Yunma's hand, stabbing towards Hozuki Isshin at the fastest speed.
Yunma would never allow himself to give the enemy a chance by talking too much and putting himself at a disadvantage.
That bit of desire to talk, Yunma preferred to save it for after the battle, to mock the two idiots in his team who only knew Taijutsu.
To let them know that Genjutsu is stronger than Taijutsu!
The Kunai pierced through Hozuki Isshin's body, but the expected blood didn't appear. Yunma was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, Hozuki Isshin's figure had already disappeared from in front of him.
