In a certain battlefield in the Land of Hot Water.
Two monsters, whose taijutsu had reached inhuman levels, attacked each other relentlessly, their strength appearing to be evenly matched.
"Good, very good." Tianyuan's eyes flashed with fervor, perhaps due to the slight influence of his Saiyan bloodline, but it didn't matter.
With such intense combat, Tianyuan could feel the ki within him continuously increasing.
At a certain moment.
"Boom!" The two collided violently once again, their footsteps constantly stamping on the ground, leaving footprints everywhere.
The battle between the Third Raikage and Tianyuan made everything around them seem fragile.
If other ninja villages' taijutsu specialists were to witness this fight, they would probably feel ashamed of themselves.
The two had long developed their taijutsu to an extreme level. They could kill jonin before the jonin even had time to form a hand sign.
"Damn it, he's so strong." The Third Raikage stared intently at Tianyuan. Although the Third Raikage's strength was also known as that of a human-tailed beast, his chakra was not endless, and he knew that his chakra couldn't compare to Tianyuan's 660.
Tianyuan possessed the power of the First Hokage's Wood Release, so chakra was likely not a limitation for Tianyuan's strength.
But for the Third Raikage, it was different. Fighting ordinary ninja and fighting Tianyuan were two completely different dimensions.
In a battle against Tianyuan, he had to squeeze out every ounce of his strength, otherwise, a single slip-up would allow Tianyuan to gain the upper hand.
The Third Raikage shuddered at the thought of Tianyuan gaining the advantage.
For taijutsu-focused ninja like them, that would be a complete massacre.
"Third Raikage, is this all your strength amounts to?" Tianyuan calmly looked at the Third Raikage.
"Tianyuan, you truly are terrifying. Even without using your Sharingan or Wood Release, your taijutsu possesses strength that surpasses Kage-level," the Third Raikage slowly said. "I truly admire you. The Konoha ninja used to say you were the greatest genius in the ninja world, that perhaps even the Sage of Six Paths couldn't compare to you. Now I believe it; you truly are an incredibly brilliant genius."
Tianyuan was only ten years old. To cultivate taijutsu to such a degree at ten years old was extremely frightening.
This wasn't like the Mangekyo Sharingan or Wood Release, which might rely on inheritance and talent. Taijutsu, to some extent, required arduous training.
"Third Raikage, your praise makes me happy, but today, I want you to understand what I'm going to do," Tianyuan said, looking at the Third Raikage.
"Of course, I know. You want to kill me, don't you?" the Third Raikage replied.
"Of course. If I kill you, Kumogakure's attack on Konoha will be officially considered a failure," Tianyuan said lightly.
Naturally, the truth was not quite so simple.
"Even killing me won't do anything; my son is not simple," the Third Raikage whispered. "And I won't just stand here and let you do it."
Lightning continuously flickered around the Third Raikage, its power directly gathering in his right hand.
"Hell Stab: One-Fingered Nukite!" The Third Raikage extended a single finger from his right hand.
The Third Raikage possessed the most powerful offensive ninjutsu, the Hell Stab, which evolved from the initial Four-Fingered Nukite, then gradually decreased to a single finger—the most powerful One-Fingered Nukite, the Third Raikage's strongest spear.
The attack power of the One-Fingered Nukite could penetrate most of the hardest substances in the ninja world.
"Take this move!" The Raikage moved like a bolt of lightning, traversing the distance. If anyone nearby had seen him, he would have appeared before Tianyuan in less than a second.
"Excellent," Tianyuan's eyes flashed with a hint of warmth.
"Armament Haki: Hardening!"
"Ki Burst!"
"Saiyan Bloodline activation!" (bfbd)
"Boom!" A pitch-black fist directly slammed forward. Tianyuan had no intention of dodging; he chose to directly clash with the Third Raikage's One-Fingered Nukite.
"You brought this upon yourself," the Third Raikage grinned ferociously. The attack power of his One-Fingered Nukite now was vastly different from before. With this strike, he could disable Tianyuan's arm.
However, something unexpected happened to the Third Raikage.
"Clang!" A metallic sound rang out. Tianyuan's arm was not disabled by the Third Raikage's One-Fingered Nukite; instead, it directly blocked the attack.
"How could this be?" The Third Raikage was stunned for a moment, and in that instant, Tianyuan kicked him flying.
"The One-Fingered Nukite, very strong attack power." Tianyuan looked at his fist. Even with his powerful Armament Haki and the aid of his ki, his strong physique was still injured by the One-Fingered Nukite.
A small hole was visible on his fist, and drops of crimson blood flowed from it.
However, the wound was healing at a visible rate, and Tianyuan hadn't even used Medical Ninjutsu.
Super Regeneration—this was a power Tianyuan had gained from an X-Men video.
In just a few seconds, Tianyuan's fist looked as if it had never been injured.
"Third Raikage, you are impressive. Since my debut, you are perhaps the first to injure me," Tianyuan said, slowly walking towards the Third Raikage.
"Unfortunately, it's still useless," the Third Raikage said with a bitter smile.
"Then, rest in peace," Tianyuan said calmly, as if bidding farewell to a friend.
"Lightning Release: Lightning Rage Across a Thousand Miles!" Suddenly, countless silver electric lights emanated from the Third Raikage's body, and he charged towards Tianyuan.
"Tianyuan, you'll die with me!" The Third Raikage's expression was extremely ferocious.
"Hmm." Tianyuan's gaze shifted slightly. "Armament Haki: Release!"
"Boom!" The air exploded. When this power struck the Third Raikage, his fist directly shattered the force.
The Third Raikage's arm became scorched black, and countless electric lights burst forth.
In the sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and one could vaguely see countless mysterious symbols on the Third Raikage's body.
"A combination of Sealing Jutsu, Ninjutsu, and Natural Chakra," Tianyuan thought as he witnessed this power.
"Let's go together!" The Third Raikage grabbed Tianyuan in a thousandth of a second, and the silver-white light around him reached its limit.
Countless lightning bolts fell from the sky.
"Boom!" A massive silver energy erupted there, sweeping across a distance of nearly a thousand miles.
Everything in the area was razed to the ground.
Trees and rocks disappeared in the Third Raikage's attack. This was an attack comparable to a Tailed Beast Ball.
