"Need to interrupt it!" Satoru raised his palm, and the Thunder God behind him did the same. Then Satoru slammed the palm down on the Monkey King.
Lightning instantly coursed through the Monkey King's body, and only then did the Tailed Beast Ball dissipate.
"R-r-ry!" This time, the Monkey King's roar was more pained. Satoru's lightning must have hurt badly.
However, though Satoru interrupted the attack of the Monkey King before him, it wasn't over. The Monkey King didn't fall but rose again, with tails behind him increasing from four to six.
*Clang!*
The Monkey King punched at Satoru. He caught it instantly. Lightning, Monstrous Strength, Armament Haki—all at maximum.
The Monkey King's chakra grew more and more, fiercer and fiercer. His body reddened. Even touching Satoru could burn him.
Fortunately, Satoru had the Sage's Cloak reducing damage, continuously mitigating what he took.
Satoru could still withstand the Monkey King's attacks for now. But over time, he tired, while the Monkey King's chakra was nearly infinite. He started with six tails, now eight more.
"Eight tails already? Each tail added boosts his power. Even with Goro Goro no Mi, I can't stop the one before me," Satoru faced this situation for the first time; pressure mounted.
The Monkey King before him seemed berserk, attacking Satoru heedlessly. The eight-tails Monkey King's body was covered in bones, defense greatly enhanced.
Satoru had maxed Goro Goro no Mi abilities, but even the two-hundred-million-volt Thunder God could barely hold.
By now, the Monkey King before him was fully consumed by Nine-Tails chakra.
Nine tails appeared behind him.
*Z-z-z!*
The Monkey King's chakra was utterly terrifying. A normal Kage-level expert would wet themselves facing this giant. Satoru was sure even the Third Hokage wouldn't fare much better. In the end, he'd probably need the Dead Demon Consuming Seal to defeat this foe.
"No choice! This guy has nine tails... Delay a second, and I'm dead. While Thunder God state hasn't faded! Try this technique!" Satoru's eyes then took a special form—Mangekyo Sharingan with straight tomoe.
Yes, Satoru used both Mangekyo eyes. A human figure instantly covered his body. By chance, it merged with his Thunder God.
The originally white human figure turned blue from lightning. Karasu-tengu armor instantly appeared on the Thunder God's body. Susanoo merged with the two-hundred-million-volt Goro Goro no Mi Thunder God.
Satoru's body trembled slightly. After all, this was his first full-power fight. His strength and chakra rapidly depleted.
"Can't last long. Enemy's chakra nearly infinite, mine and strength draining too fast. Must end in minutes, or die without burial!" The Monkey King Satoru fought wasn't a Tailed Beast but a very strong being itself. With indestructible body, hard to beat externally. After absorbing Nine-Tails chakra, he directly became the Nine-Tails...
The Monkey King before him was no longer an ordinary Monkey King but the Demonic Monkey King.
"Takamagahara!" Satoru used left eye ability again. A staff created via Yin-Yang Release instantly appeared in his hand.
"Amaterasu: Kagutsuchi!" Satoru used right eye ability again. The staff in his hand instantly gained Amaterasu properties.
Satoru looked majestic. His body emitted lightning glow. He held the Yin-Yang Staff wreathed in Amaterasu flames.
Glancing at the Demonic Monkey King, it charged at Satoru.
This time, Satoru wasn't easily flung. The Amaterasu Yin-Yang Staff thrust toward the Demonic Monkey King's body. This air-piercing strike combined maximum Monstrous Strength.
The Demonic Monkey King's mind was filled with killing intent, losing thought. Facing Satoru's staff, it took the hit head-on.
Who'd think Satoru's strike was no longer "gentle."
*Dong!!!*
Incredible force transmitted from the staff. The huge Demonic Monkey King was flung by one blow. His massive body crashed into a well-bottom statue, dust rising instantly.
Satoru didn't relax; his eyes saw through the enemy.
In the dust, the Demonic Monkey King punched. A red chakra arm instantly shot from its hand toward Satoru.
Satoru skillfully twirled the staff, Amaterasu flames flaring fiercely.
The chakra arm, touching Satoru, burned to ash instantly.
"R-r-ry!" The Demonic Monkey King roared in pain.
*Boom!*
The Demonic Monkey King then leaped into the air.
*Dong-dong-dong!*
It unleashed a series of air cannons. Mere air cannons, yet S-rank ninjutsu level. An elite jonin unprepared would die instantly.
Satoru swung the staff, blocking all air cannons, then noticed countless red chakra arms rushing at him.
These arms burst from the Demonic Monkey King's body.
Satoru faced not just the Demonic Monkey King but its chakra too.
"Amaterasu!" Satoru periodically boosted Amaterasu, destroying countless chakra arms each time. The Demonic Monkey King circled Satoru at incredible speed.
*Boom!*
The Demonic Monkey King fired chakra cannons, instantly forming small Tailed Beast Balls.
Tailed Beast Balls rushed Satoru from all sides. Unable to block everywhere, he began spinning.
"Heavenly Spin!" Satoru had long possessed Byakugan. Using Sharingan, he copied the Hyuga clan's Heavenly Spin. He barely used it now, blocking the instant Tailed Beast Balls.
In truth, Susanoo could originally withstand a Tailed Beast Ball, but the Nine-Tails Demonic Monkey King's power was too great, and Satoru's age too young—many things he couldn't use fully, so he resorted to Heavenly Spin.
And at that moment, the Demonic Monkey King finally couldn't hold. It concentrated blue Yang Release chakra and purple-black Yin Release chakra in its mouth. The nine tails behind gathered here.
"Finally? Tailed Beast Ball!" Seeing this, Satoru absorbed his staff and recalled Amaterasu.
"This is the last strike. If this technique can't win..."
Satoru might have only death left.
Facing the Nine-Tails Demonic Monkey King's Tailed Beast Ball, Satoru prepared too.
"Three Hundred Million Volts: Thunder Ball!"
