The body struck by the giant sword, hit by lightning, swept away by the storm, but as long as there was still a breath left, the Hidden Sand Ninjas did not retreat a single step.
Fight.
This was their only belief.
A gigantic Gold Sand Pyramid emerged, falling from the sky.
Ruri glanced at it, and Susanoo's right-hand sword struck out.
The pyramid was split in two.
The Power of Gold Sand that could suppress the One-tailed Shukaku several times appeared pale and powerless at this moment.
No attack could compare to the samurai's gentle sword slice.
Human strength cannot be shaken.
"Heaven's Thunder."
The world went still.
An invisible wave, centered on Susanoo, spread out in all directions.
The expressions of the Hidden Sand Ninjas around Susanoo dulled, their bodies and faces frozen in rigidity.
Rasa broke free from this confinement in an instant, due to his strong Chakra and willpower.
Then, the giant sword fell from above, leaving him no time to dodge, hurriedly commanding the gold sand to defend.
Bang!
A sword mark extended into the distance on the sandy ground.
Lightning flickered and danced within the groove left by the sword slash.
In the face of such power, the gold sand was instantly destroyed.
"Kazekage-sama!"
Rasa was soaked in blood, hearing the shouts of many Hidden Sand Ninjas, but he ignored them. Instead, he painfully gritted his teeth, looking at Ruri who watched indifferently, his hand beginning to tremble.
Rasa understood that he was scared.
As one of the Five Kage, he couldn't face such power head-on.
"Such monstrous strength, the Sharingan..."
Perhaps the Byakugan's value lies in grand strategy.
However, in the face of the extreme power of the Sharingan, are strategies really effective?
So, from the very beginning, this was a trap.
And the Hidden Sand jumped right in without hesitation.
However, as a Five Kage, pride could not be easily discarded.
It's too early to give up now. Rasa, enduring the pain within his body, clasped his hands together.
Gathering all the concealed gold sand.
This was a do-or-die moment.
Ruri's gaze slightly tensed, looking down.
Countless gold sand surged from the ground like a gushing flood, spreading in all directions, but immediately forming a territorial consciousness, intending to cover the space where Susanoo resided entirely with gold sand.
Moreover, within these gold sands, there was a binding force stronger than before, with a heavier proportion of Chakra.
Even 'Wakurai' capable of teleporting with Susanoo couldn't be deployed.
"A Sealing Technique?"
Ruri murmured.
This technique should be used to suppress the One-tailed.
However, the reason this technique could suppress the One-tailed was due to the special nature of the gold sand, originally developed to target the One-tailed.
And such a jutsu did not have strong restraint over Susanoo.
Ruri controlled Susanoo, raising the twin swords, ready to slash down.
"Don't even think about succeeding!"
A loud shout rang out.
Ruri looked over intently.
"Fierce Fang!"
Everyone instinctively covered their ears, but the furious roar of a beast penetrated their hands, crashing violently into their ear canals, causing many to lose the ability to think instantly.
A figure enveloped in blue steam carried the massive silhouette of a four-legged beast on his body. His astonishing leap allowed him to jump over Susanoo's head, delivering a fierce punch forward.
It was Might Duy.
"Blue steam, the Seventh Gate already? Moreover, this technique..."
The beast-like punch wasn't formed by Chakra but was more like an Air Cannon technique.
The wild, fierce force, like the fangs of a beast, tore and devoured the enemy in front of it.
Susanoo's body trembled, and a slight crack appeared on the brow, though not lethal.
However, because of it, Ruri lost the best opportunity to counterattack.
Countless gold sand quickly surged up, engulfing Susanoo entirely, turning into an enormous majestic pyramid, suppressing the samurai within Susanoo.
Everyone stared blankly at this scene, then erupted into lively cheers.
"Succeeded..."
Duy's lips managed to pull into a faint smile, his face somewhat pale, his spirit diminishing.
Bang!
The enormous pyramid began to tremble, and the cheers of the Hidden Sand Ninjas stopped halfway, replaced by a fearful silence, as they stared with suspicion at the massive pyramid.
"Furai."
A crisp and cold voice resonated through the air.
Thunder clouds rumbled, the sky filled with dark clouds and lightning, countless lightning serpents flashing amidst the skies, glaring down with a sinister gaze.
The Hidden Sand Ninjas' bodies froze, watching the unusual change in the sky.
In the end, lightning descended from the heavens, illuminating their faces, reflecting their somewhat despairing expressions.
Even Rasa himself was shocked by the changes in the sky.
Under the power of thunder, the gold sand dissolved into golden powder.
The giant samurai, wielding twin swords, loomed faintly between the storm clouds and lightning, his eyes blood-red, mirroring a sea of blood-like scene.
Lightning gathered on the armor, with the sword blades also infused with the rage of thunder.
The thunder in the sky roared ceaselessly.
"You've got to be kidding me?"
"How is this possible..."
"The sealing technique Kazekage-sama used to suppress Shukaku was undone in an instant..."
Many Hidden Sand Ninjas found it hard to accept such a cruel reality.
Many among them had witnessed this Sealing Technique, which had easily subdued the rampaging One-Tailed Shukaku in the desert multiple times, rendering Shukaku utterly powerless.
