ACSP: Chapter 98: Susanoo Makes Its Debut, Kotoamatsukami!
"What an impressive Lightning Release skill..."
"Lightning itself is the best conductor of electricity. Jiang Chen having so many Shadow Clones use Lightning Release techniques simultaneously—with all that lightning conducting and colliding, the stacked lightning damage is incredible!"
"Wait a minute, he split into so many Shadow Clones at once and had them all use area-of-effect Lightning Release techniques simultaneously. How much Chakra must that consume?"
"It seems this Jiang Chen has staked all his hopes on this single strike."
"Indeed. In a duel between experts, victory or defeat is often decided in an instant. He likely wants to crush his opponent with this blow and not give them a chance to catch their breath."
"It's amazing. Zhao Shui's Illusion Body Flicker Technique can shift between reality and illusion; every clone is the real body, yet they cannot be attacked. But Jiang Chen's Lightning Release has covered the entire arena; there is simply nowhere for him to hide..."
Looking down at the arena, which had turned into a purgatory of lightning, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
The [Illusion Body Flicker Technique] that Zhao Shui had used earlier was already shocking enough.
Unexpectedly, the Lightning Release technique Jiang Chen was using now was even more explosive.
By utilizing the principle that hundreds of [Shadow Clones] can also conduct electricity, he instantly covered the entire arena with a Lightning Release technique that originally only had a range of a few meters, leaving his opponent with nowhere to escape.
Such methods are truly terrifying!
"Boom, boom, boom!"
"Boom, boom..."
As the lightning currents on the arena gradually dissipated, it wasn't long before the figures of Jiang Chen and Zhao Shui appeared in everyone's view once again.
However, when they saw Zhao Shui's current appearance, everyone was stunned in place.
Zhao Shui was now tightly enveloped by a green skeletal frame.
Under the protection of that skeletal frame, not only did Zhao Shui receive no damage, but his aura had even grown slightly stronger.
"What's going on? With such a terrifying Lightning Release attack, he didn't even sustain a single injury?"
"What is that skeletal frame covering his body? Could it also be a form of Chakra transformation?"
"Strange, how have I never seen this type of Chakra transformation before?"
Everyone looked at each other, their faces filled with incredulous shock.
They never dreamed that Zhao Shui would be able to withstand Jiang Chen's recent Lightning Release technique without taking any damage.
"I didn't expect Brother Shui to actually use Susanoo."
Zhao Bin stared intently at the skeletal frame outside Zhao Shui's body, his eyes full of envy.
Others might not know what technique Zhao Shui was using, but as a fellow member of the Zhao clan, he was very clear about it.
Susanoo, the third power that can only be unlocked after awakening the [Dual Mangekyo Sharingan], possesses unparalleled destructive and defensive power.
Once this technique is unleashed, the user stands in an invincible position.
No one can break it, no one can block it!
The world only knows that the [Mangekyo Sharingan] places a great burden on the user, but they do not know that it is also a source of power itself.
"To be able to force me to use Susanoo, you are indeed not simple..."
Zhao Shui slowly raised his head, his enchanting eyes emitting waves of terrifying ocular power.
His [Sharingan] had now transformed from the original three tomoe into a pattern resembling a Shuriken.
That was the characteristic of having awakened the [Mangekyo Sharingan].
Jiang Chen did not speak, just quietly watching Zhao Shui.
The next second, Zhao Shui's eyes shifted.
A huge skeletal arm immediately extended from the skeletal frame on his body, sweeping horizontally and instantly turning dozens of surrounding [Shadow Clones] into dust.
"It's just an initial form of Susanoo, what are you acting so tough for?"
A flash of brilliance appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes.
He stood in place without moving, but with a single thought, hundreds of [Shadow Clones] around him each condensed a [Big Ball Rasengan] and crazily rushed towards Zhao Shui!
Among them, a few [Shadow Clones] even condensed the even more terrifying [Wind Release: Rasenshuriken] in their hands!
"Just how much Chakra do you have in your body, you guy?"
Zhao Shui was greatly alarmed.
He didn't expect that after Jiang Chen had unleashed that wave of Lightning Release attacks, he would still have the energy to have so many [Shadow Clones] condense so many explosive techniques again.
Just as Zhao Shui was shocked, Jiang Chen's [Shadow Clones] had already surrounded him.
With no time to think, Zhao Shui immediately controlled the [Arm of Susanoo] to strike at those [Shadow Clones].
Although he dispersed quite a few [Shadow Clones] along the way, more [Shadow Clones] bypassed his [Arm of Susanoo] and rushed right in front of him.
"— Big Ball Rasengan Barrage!"
"— Wind Release: Rasenshuriken!"
As one [Shadow Clone] after another surged forward, Zhao Shui was quickly swallowed by a terrifying energy vortex.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom..." For a time, the entire arena erupted with continuous deafening roars.
The airflow swept up by the storm was so strong that the people in the second-floor stands could barely keep their eyes open.
"Shit, is the amount of Chakra on this Jiang Chen free? How can he still unleash so many terrifyingly powerful techniques?"
"Could this guy also be a Jinchuriki?"
"He must be a Jinchuriki. If he weren't a Jinchuriki, how could he possibly have so much Chakra?"
"By the way, I heard that he previously obtained a Power of the Nine-Tails in a Tailed Beast dungeon. Later, he never brought that Power of the Nine-Tails out; it was probably already activated by himself."
"Power of the Nine-Tails? No wonder. The Nine-Tailed is the strongest among the Tailed Beasts. If he activated the Power of the Nine-Tails, the amount of Chakra he has would definitely reach an unimaginable level."
Listening to the discussions coming from his ears, Zhao Bin, who originally held great hope for Zhao Shui, couldn't help but start to worry.
Even though [Susanoo] is known for its absolute defense, Zhao Shui's current [Susanoo] is still only in its initial state.
Its defensive power has far from reached the level of being able to withstand everything in existence.
Jiang Chen's offensive right now is so terrifying.
What if the opponent's [Susanoo] cannot hold up?
"It won't happen. Brother Shui still hasn't used Kotoamatsukami."
"If he uses Kotoamatsukami, then Jiang Chen will definitely not be his opponent."
Zhao Bin kept comforting himself in his heart, trying hard to calm down.
However, the more he did this, the more restless he felt.
Because there was one thing he couldn't understand.
As a Dojutsu of the [Mangekyo Sharingan], Zhao Shui had even used [Susanoo].
Why not use Kotoamatsukami?
Could it be... that the other party is worried about something?
"— Bang!" Just then, a dull thud suddenly came from the arena.
Zhao Bin looked intently, only to see that Zhao Shui had actually forcibly rushed out from that terrifying storm vortex.
The skeletal frame covering his body now had large areas of cracks, as if it would shatter at any moment.
"Jiang Chen, you are a worthy opponent. I originally did not want to use this move against you, but I cannot lose..."
Zhao Shui used the Arm of Susanoo to knock away the incoming Shadow Clones and darted quickly toward Jiang Chen.
Just as he closed in on Jiang Chen.
A terrifying amount of ocular power rapidly gathered.
The Sharingan patterns in his eyes also began to spin rapidly.
"——Kotoamatsukami!"
