Musashi remained silent.
"Such speed, such Lightning Style chakra."
"I even thought you were a distant relative of that guy Ai!"
Black Light Raishi laughed loudly: "However, it's useless!"
"Be it Lightning Style or extreme speed, you cannot kill me!"
Musashi didn't speak; he was using speed to attract the opponent's attention.
Although, if he used his full strength, he could definitely deal with the opponent, but the cost was too high.
He wanted to try other methods.
Besides the Eight Gates as his last trump card, his ninjutsu had also made significant progress over this long period.
He was relatively proficient in Wind, Fire, and Lightning attributes.
Among them, the energy for Lightning Style cultivation was all used on chakra stimulation and strengthening the physical body.
He didn't master many other offensive ninjutsu.
Moreover, even Kakashi's Lightning Cutter failed to succeed, so his Lightning Style certainly wouldn't work either.
Fire Style had a large range and might be okay against a large number of ordinary ninjas.
Trying to burn the opponent to death with the Fire Style mastered at this stage was basically as likely as Danzo fighting Susanoo.
Only Wind Style was most suitable.
Enhanced concentration, and sufficient destructiveness.
While moving quickly, Black Light Raishi remained stationary in his original position.
With the intense bombardment between the two, the place where they stood gradually formed a huge semicircular depression.
After confirming that the opponent was difficult to dodge, Musashi's eyes lit up.
Chakra output was turned to the maximum! Above his right hand, a blue chakra ball formed instantly!
"Wind Style: Rasen... Shuriken!!"
Hum!!~
Intense, high-pitched trembling sounds reverberated endlessly.
On the sphere formed by chakra, the cutting attribute of Wind Style took effect.
Musashi used all his strength, attacking at full speed. In an instant, the Rasenshuriken broke through Black Light Raishi's defense and imprinted on his waist and ribs.
Hum!!!~
Compress!
Compress again!!!
Even with full suppression, countless sharp blades stung his palm. The escaping fine blades cut countless tiny bloody openings on the skin of his palm in the blink of an eye.
The Rasenshuriken was the most destructive ninjutsu he had barely mastered, and he couldn't perform it perfectly yet.
Musashi retreated violently!
The moment he retreated, the Rasenshuriken expanded with a bang!
BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!
"Ah!~"
Black Light Raishi let out a scream that didn't sound human.
Making Kakashi in the rear also feel his heart skip a beat.
Dust hit their faces.
The earth trembled.
Chakra raged within sight, strong airflow rolling up gravel and huge objects on the ground, making the two dodge constantly.
Musashi covered his right hand with his left hand, urging Yang Style chakra to cover his bloody right hand, looking up at the storm caused by his ninjutsu.
He hadn't fully mastered the ninjutsu; the power was still dispersed.
Boom! Boom!
In the center of the storm, several consecutive tremors occurred.
The earth cracked again.
Black Light Raishi, in the center of the ninjutsu range, smashed the ground madly, making it sink constantly.
Burying himself deeper into the ground to reduce the damage received.
Under strong vibration, the storm formed by the Rasenshuriken gradually weakened.
Until it dissipated.
Did it succeed? A question arose in Kakashi's mind.
The ground sank too deep, and the Rasenshuriken changed the terrain, so Musashi and Kakashi couldn't directly observe the situation inside.
Thud, thud, thud...
The dull sounds made his heart sink again.
An arm with only dark red muscles left climbed onto the edge of the crater.
The next moment, Black Light Raishi climbed out of the crater and appeared before the two.
"Hiss~" Kakashi sucked in a cold breath.
At this moment, Black Light Raishi no longer had the arrogant and tyrannical appearance from before.
The huge body was covered in dark red.
Looking closely, the opponent's black skin had almost completely disappeared, exposing dark red muscles and fascia. Amidst the dripping blood, several exposed bones could be faintly seen under the broken flesh.
Only the throat and eyes seemed to have been protected; a few pieces of skin still adhered to them at this moment.
Bloody and terrifying, like a humanoid demon.
"The ninjutsu worked!" Kakashi said.
Musashi: "Pity it was just a little short."
If his Rasenshuriken was more concentrated and controlled more perfectly, it would have been better.
With his talent, even practicing to the point of barely performing it consumed great energy.
Aside, Kakashi cast an inquiring look at him: "Musashi, this jutsu, can you still..."
He only said half the sentence, having already seen Musashi's bloody right hand.
Musashi smiled bitterly: "Senior Kakashi, I haven't fully mastered this jutsu yet; I can only barely activate it once."
The chakra control degree of his left hand was far from reaching the level of releasing Rasenshuriken. If he forced it, not to mention success or failure, the whole arm would be useless.
"Hehe..." Sinister laughter sounded. Black Light Raishi's back trembled, then he raised his blood-red head high, the laughter gradually becoming manic.
"Hehe... haha... hahahahahaha!!!!!~"
"Konoha ninjas, you are very good! Hahaha!"
"Only killing such strong people makes me feel excited!"
"Hahaha!"
"I'm going to kill you!"
"Kill you!!!"
"Tear you into pieces one by one!!!!!"
Black Light Raishi started running.
Every time his feet without skin touched the ground, the hard bluestone would explode.
The whole person was like a mad giant beast, looking like a malicious ghost, with terrifying momentum!
At this moment, Musashi had a sense of dislocation.
As if he wasn't reborn in the Naruto world but facing an advancing Armored Titan.
Kakashi said from the side: "Musashi, run first!"
"He can't last much longer!"
His injury was unfavorable for rapid movement, but Musashi could.
Just try Lightning Cutter one more time to finish off the opponent.
As for whether he could survive, he couldn't care about it now.
"Senior Kakashi, you're joking again."
Musashi gave a bitter smile, then said: "Sorry, if I didn't want to make a windfall, you wouldn't have been injured."
"I might need you to carry me back later."
Kakashi looked up in surprise: "What did you say?"
Musashi's eyes were staring fixedly at the approaching Black Light Raishi.
The Eight Gates placed too heavy a burden on the body. If he had a choice, he didn't want to use it.
It was just that Taijutsu in the normal state couldn't kill the opponent.
The opponent's body was indeed tyrannical, but it was just a body.
Reaching near-Kage level combat power with just the physical body alone, stronger than the strongest elite Jonin among the Twelve Guardian Ninja.
"Eight Gates Released Formation... Gate of Opening..."
"...Gate of View, OPEN!!!"
BOOM!!!~
A gale rose abruptly on the spot!
The dust and clods under his feet were instantly swept away!
Chakra (energy) was like a hurricane, forming a tornado shooting straight into the sky.
I didn't expect to encounter an opponent like you in Taijutsu.
Your body amazes me.
It seems I can't underestimate opponents in the ninja world, nor look down on future enemies.
