Chapter 119: The Arrival of the Third Raikage on the Battlefield
Chapter 119: The Arrival of the Third Raikage on the Battlefield
Country of Fire.
Near the Nitani Bridge.
Finding no opportunity to intervene in the battle of Yeruashi and Killer B, Tsunade did not stand idly by and fret in vain, she immediately rushed to support Shinku Yuhi and the rest of the Konoha ninja.
The ten or so Kumogakure ninja fighting Shinku and the others were crushed moments after Tsunade's arrival, but still they could not prevent the Kumo ninja in charge of communications from relaying the message at the last moment.
"Tsunade-sama, we have already sent a message, the Hokage is aware of what is happening and has sent support."
"Understood."
Tsunade nodded and turned her head in the direction of Yeruashi and Killer B fighting nearby, her eyes shone with intense concern.
Although support has been sent, the trip here will take several hours, and Yeruashi can't hold Hachibi for so long relying on a forbidden technique, so he should defeat Hachibi quickly.
Otherwise.
Even if Yeruashi still won, the side effects of the forbidden technique will threaten his life.
Now it seems that Yeruashi is taking a dominant position in the battle, continuing to inflict wounds on the enemy again and again, while the Hachibi could not even touch him.
But the Hachibi is a Bijuu, possessing the characteristic of being almost immortal, and even if wounds continue to appear on his body, they will heal quickly.
"This can't go on like this..."
Tsunade gritted her teeth.
Although Yeruashi was clearly dominating in the battle, but if it continues, it will be extremely difficult to predict the outcome.
She took a deep breath and resolutely approached Yeruashi and Killer B's battlefield, folded a series of seals and placed her hand on the ground, calling out to Katsuyu again.
"Tsunade..."
"Katsuyu, help me! Hachibi needs to be restrained!"
Tsunade turned to meet Katsuyu and shouted in Yeruashi's direction, "Yeruashi! Stop attacking the Bijuu himself, find the main body of his Jinchuriki hidden inside! I'll help restrain the Bijuu's actions!"
Yeruashi was in a state of four times the acceleration of the time flow, so from her perspective Tsunade's voice sounded four times slower than normal, but she could still catch the essence, albeit with difficulty.
He really wasn't afraid of a battle of attrition against a Bijuu.
Yeruashi was sure that if everything continued like this, then the Hachibi would inevitably be defeated, as it could not defend itself from attacks and repeatedly received wounds that required a large amount of chakra to heal.
Even the Kyubi's chakra can be depleted, let alone the Hachibi.
Tsunade's method, however, would end the battle faster.
However.
As Katsuyu moved towards the Hachibi, a terrifying and oppressive chakra appeared out of nowhere.
Sensing the chakra fluctuations, Tsunade's face and the rest of the Konoha ninja abruptly changed and they turned in her direction.
In a vacant lot not far from the Hachibi, it was unknown when a figure bathed in lightning appeared, with a lightning-shaped scar on his right chest, and a kanji lightning tattoo on his right shoulder, with a strong, sturdy body and bronze-colored skin that seemed to hide incredible strength.
"That's..."
Tsunade's expression changed abruptly.
She recognized the man instantly.
Raikage!
Third Raikage!
Not only did the A-B Duo appear here, but the Third Raikage himself personally!
"No, how can that be... The Third Raikage came out of nowhere when it happened? Did he use a reverse summoning Jutsu? No, there's no one here who can use that Jutsu..."
Tsunade's face changed dramatically as she looked at the Third Raikage.
And in the next moment.
In the eyes of the Third Raikage, who was bathed in the blue chakra of the lightning attribute, a cold light shone, he slowly raised his right hand and clasped his fingers together, a large amount of chakra of the lightning attribute rushed towards them, the palm seemed to turn into lightning, then the Raikage ran straight towards Tsunade.
Tsunade jumped off Katsuyu's back without hesitation.
Auge!!!
The third Raikage smashed into Katsuyu, in front of him, it looked like nothing more than a rotten tree, due to a single hit, countless small slugs flew sideways.
Katsuyu, who had just been summoned again by Tsunade, collapsed on the ground.
"..."
After crushing Katsuyu with a single blow, the Third Raikage looked at Tsunade, but did not chase after her and ran straight towards Hachibi.
Klang!!!
The right hand, wrapped in lightning attribute chakra, slammed into the Kusanagi Sword, there was a sound of metal clashing, sparks and many lightning arcs flew sideways.
Blocking Yeruashi's slash, the Third Raikage looked in the direction of the Hachibi and shouted, "Go away! I'll cover you!"
"Was it the Celestial Transfer Jutsu? Damn it, I couldn't even imagine that we would be in this situation..."
At this moment, A, severely injured, was still inside the Hachibi's body and also heard the Third Raikage's shout, he gritted his teeth, understanding how his father could get here so fast.
Killer B turned worriedly to A, at this moment, he had no thoughts about continuing to rap, and said in a deep voice, "Big brother, we have to go!"
Although it was hard for A to accept this, he knew very well that he was now injured and incapacitated, and continuing to stay here would only create unnecessary trouble for his father.
The Hachibi roared in fury and ran off at full speed, putting aside all thoughts of continuing the battle against the Silver Flash.
Yeruashi glared coldly at Hachibi and waved the Kusanagi sword fiercely, throwing a huge silver-white slash after the fleeing Bijuu.
Auge!!!
The Third Raikage's figure, bathed in blue light, stepped in the way of Yeruashi's attack and violently waved his palm, a huge horizontal slash split into two parts in the center.
The split cut smashed into the ground on either side of the Raikage, creating two deep, narrow cracks that were nearly a hundred meters long!
"..."
Yeruashi looked at the fleeing Hachibi again, then checked Tsunade's situation and only then looked at the Third Raikage, slowly saying, "I'm a bit angry..."
When he was about to kill A, the Hachibi intervened and had to deal with the monstrous vitality of the Bijuu.
Just when he thought he would soon be able to deal with A and Killer B, a Third Raikage suddenly appeared, using the Heavenly Transfer Jutsu.
Anyone who has been interrupted several times in a row will involuntarily experience some irritation.
The speed of the Third Raikage is almost at the level of the future Fourth Raikage, who has not yet reached the peak of his strength, which in turn is slower than Yeruashi, who opened the Fifth Gate of the Hachimon Tonko Thunder mode.
Therefore, he can easily avoid a battle with the Third Raikage by running after Hachibi.
But the problem is that Tsunade is not far away and certainly cannot match the Third Raikage in terms of speed, and in the case of a direct collision with him, even if she possesses the Byakug no In, she will not be able to hold on for too long.
Yeruashi didn't want to check if she could assassinate the Hachibi faster than the Third Raikage with Tsunade.
"The silver flash of Konoha?"
The Third Raikage looked at Yeruashi and said slowly, "I didn't expect Konoha to have a ninja faster than A, and now.... show this old man what you can do!"
