Chapter 640 The Pinnacle of the Ninja World
"Bang--!!!"
The Susanoo Nine-Tails and the Wood Release Nine-Tails clashed once more. The golden Yang Nine-Tails chakra and the dark golden Yin Nine-Tails chakra tore wildly between the two behemoths, and blinding white lightning burst forth from the edges where the chakra rubbed against each other.
The shockwave spread outward from the center of the collision. The earth was compressed downward in this impact, and the already repeatedly crushed ruins were pressed into a circular depression with a diameter of several hundred meters. The soil and rocks at the edge of the depression were squeezed upright, forming a jagged natural low wall.
The next moment, the nine wooden tails behind the Nine-Tails suddenly expanded! Mai utilized the core characteristic of Wood Release: Growth!
The size and length of its tails increased several times over. Instead of attacking Susanoo Nine-Tails head-on, the tails bypassed its frontal defenses during their growth, flanking it from the sides and top, and directly attacking its back!
Nine enormous wooden tails, obscuring the sky, slammed down simultaneously from nine different angles, sealing off all space for evasion.
The Nine-Tails Susanoo did not dodge. It opened its mouth, and Yin-Yang chakra rapidly condensed in its oral cavity, forming a Tailed Beast Ball in less than a second.
Then it suddenly blasted the Tailed Beast Ball straight out.
"boom--!!!"
A head-on collision. The Tailed Beast Ball crashed into the nine giant wooden tails, exploding into an ever-expanding sphere of light the instant of contact.
The sphere of light expanded outward at an incredible speed, simultaneously engulfing the figures of the two colossal beasts. Wherever the light passed, the ground melted into magma, the air was ionized into plasma, and even the clouds in the sky were pushed into a circular hole by the shockwave.
This was almost a fight to the death; there was no defense, no evasion, and both sides poured all their strength into this one attack.
However, after the smoke and light finally dissipated, the scene on the battlefield made Mai's heart sink.
The state of the Nine-Tails can only be described as tragic. Most of the dark gold chakra cloak covering its body has been peeled off, revealing the charred and cracked wooden body underneath, which has been scorched by the explosion. Two of its nine tails have been completely blown off, and the jagged wood fibers at the break are still emitting black smoke. The other tails have also developed cracks and defects to varying degrees.
The chakra cloak is working hard to repair the damage. Golden chakra flows out from the fracture like liquid, trying to cover the exposed wood fibers again, but the repair is much slower than before.
Susanoo Kurama, on the other hand, had not a single wound.
The purple Susanoo armor completely covered Kurama's body from head to toe, with every plate intact and not a single scratch found.
Mai's pupils contracted slightly. Something's not right. How could a Susanoo at the level of the Six-Tomoe Rinnegan possess such powerful defense?
This is certainly not something a six-tomoe Rinnegan can achieve. Satsuki's eyes are nine-tomoe. Just considering the strength of her Susanoo, it is completely at the level of the Sage of Six Paths, an ultimate defense capable of going head-to-head with the Perfect Ten-Tails without being at a disadvantage.
Mai was unaware of this; she was simply staring intently at the unscathed purple behemoth, her mind frantically analyzing the source of its defensive power.
Susanoo Kurama gave Kinkaku no time to catch its breath. While Kinkaku was still struggling to repair its broken tail, Susanoo Kurama had already drawn the huge chakra katana formed from the power of Susanoo's eye from its waist.
The moment the blade slid out of its sheath, the air vibrated with a low hum from the chakra fluctuations emanating from the edge, and space itself seemed to distort slightly where the blade passed. Then it raised the katana and slashed down towards the direction of the Nine-Tails.
"Whoosh—!"
The Nine-Tails immediately raised its remaining seven tails, using them all to block the attack in an attempt to use the resilience of Wood Release and the density of Nine-Tails chakra. However, it had no effect.
The moment the chakra katana's blade touched the wooden tails, it was like a red-hot blade cutting into butter—encountering no real resistance whatsoever. All seven tails were severed in a single stroke!
The blade continued downwards, slicing into the very center of the Mu Jiuwei's body, from head to chest, and from chest to abdomen, splitting the entire Mu Jiuwei in two from the very middle.
The Nine-Tails' body tilted weakly to both sides before collapsing to the ground with a thud.
"boom--!!!"
But that wasn't all. The Nine-Tails Susanoo raised its nine tails, which were also covered in layers of purple Susanoo armor. All nine tails were raised into the air at the same time, and the tip of each tail was filled with chakra density enough to pierce through mountains.
Then, the nine tails, carrying the power to destroy all things in the universe, swung down at the wooden Nine-Tailed Fox's remains on the ground, which had already lost its ability to move!
The earth trembled violently several times from the impact, and the shockwave, carrying wood chips and rubble, spread in all directions, shearing away another layer from the already leveled battlefield.
After the attack ended and the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, the Wood Nine-Tails had completely disappeared. Only scattered wood chips and fragments remained on the ground, and the golden chakra cloak had also vanished without a trace.
From the moment Susanoo Kurama drew its katana to the complete defeat of the wooden Kurama, the entire process took less than a moment. Naruto and Sasuke achieved an overwhelming victory in this round.
The greatest achievements are etched upon the Land of Fire.
"boom--!!!"
Suddenly! A massive chakra lightsaber shot into the sky from the depths of the ruins, its golden light piercing the clouds. The blade was thick enough to cleave the sky, and the trajectory of the lightsaber left a dazzling afterimage that lingered in the air.
The lightsaber slashed down towards Susanoo and Kurama, accompanied by a furious roar.
"hateful--!"
That was Mai Uzumaki's voice. Her voice was no longer calm, and her blue eyes burned with anger and resentment.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!!"
With each roar, a massive chakra light sword shot into the sky from her hand, the golden wheel of reincarnation blast's sword light slashing towards Susanoo Nine-Tails time and time again.
That was enough power to cleave the moon. Each strike left a visible mark on the Susanoo armor. It wasn't deep enough to penetrate, but it did leave shallow marks on the surface of the armor.
For the first time, the Susanoo Nine-Tails was damaged by these dense slashes. Several small cracks appeared in its purple chakra cloak. Although the Susanoo's repair speed was extremely fast, this at least proved that Mai did indeed possess the power to damage the Nine-Tomoe Susanoo.
"I'm actually going to use my last trump card on someone like you!"
Mai formed hand seals once more.
"Summoning Jutsu - Ten-Tails!"
