I Punch the Tailed Beast Ball

Chapter 330: Supernova Explosion



"Hmph, ignorant," Madara coldly snorted as he disappeared and reappeared beside Nagasawa in an instant.

However, Nagasawa was currently at full power, and his speed wasn't much slower than Madara's. The moment Madara appeared, Nagasawa struck Madara with his sword that was set ablaze.

Clang!

Madara also swung the Six Paths Staff toward Nagasawa, and the collision between the black Six Paths Staff and Nagasawa's black sword created a powerful shockwave.

Boom! Boom! Boom!!!

The clash between them caused a devastating impact, sending shockwaves that ravaged the terrain.

After this exchange, both Madara and Nagasawa were pushed back.

Nagasawa's black sword in his hand has been vibrating slightly, as if it might shatter at any moment.

"This is gonna be a bit tricky; Sage of Six Paths' power is on a different level compared to my Color of Arms Haki." Nagasawa frowned.

Lately, he had been too immersed with Sage Mode and more advanced Breathing Styles that he somewhat neglected his Color of Arms Haki and Tremor-Tremor Fruit's training.

This led to the current situation where his black sword seemed equally strong to the Six Paths Staff Madara on the surface, but it was actually far weaker. Each collision scraped a significant amount of his Color of Arms Haki to keep the sword intact, or it would have been destroyed long ago.

He should learn this world's version of Color of Arms Haki, then incorporate it into his own.

Because any technique that could be performed with regular Chakra could also be performed with Senjutsu Chakra. If he could use Color of Arms Haki powered by Senjutsu Chakra, it might be able to rival the power of the Sage of Six Paths.

"Haha, your strength is nothing special," Madara laughed loudly as he charged at Nagasawa.

The two engaged in a quick exchange of hundreds of blows in an instant, causing the surrounding terrain to be battered beyond recognition.

Kakashi and Gaara were on the sidelines, constantly looking for an opportunity, but their movements were too fast for them to intervene.

Perhaps due to the intense battle, Might Guy noticed what was happening. At this moment, Might Guy was in her Sixth Gate state, and he quickly approached Kakashi.

"Kakashi, what's going on here? Where are the Hokages and Naruto?" Might Guy asked in confusion. Usually, the main fighting force would act together, so he couldn't understand why only the Second Hokage from the other world and Kakashi were to be seen.

"Naruto had the Nine-Tails extracted from him and is in grave danger. Minato-sensei is trying to save Naruto in the Kamui dimension. As for the other Hokages, I'm not sure about their situation. Madara and the Second Hokage from another world are too fast; it's difficult to step in," Kakashi explained.

"Too fast?" Might Guy raised an eyebrow, as speed was his specialty as a Taijutsu user.

With the Hokages missing and Naruto critically injured, now was the time for Konoha's Sublime Green Beast of the Prey to step up!

Might Guy leapt ahead.

"Which means it's time for Konoha's Sublime Green Beast of the Prey to make an entrance," he declared.

"Seventh Gate, Gate of Wonder, open!" Might Guy suddenly exuded an astonishing aura. The green energy surrounding her body transformed into blue steam.

Boom! Boom! Boom!!!

The intense aura created a gust of wind, lifting stones and debris from the ground, forcing Kakashi and Gaara to use Chakra to stabilize themselves.

Madara and Nagasawa, in the midst of their battle, were also drawn to this overwhelming aura.

"Blue steam, huh?" Madara chuckled.

"Be careful, don't touch the black spheres and black staff next to him," Nagasawa warned.

Truth-Seeking Balls were overwhelming for most Shinobi as it could nullify all regular Ninjutsu and had terrifying destructive power. Death was almost certain upon contact. Even Nagasawa couldn't afford to take it head-on.

"Got it!" Might Guy gave a thumbs-up to Nagasawa with a gleaming smile.

Bang!

Might Guy unleashed his Chakra explosively, creating a small crater beneath his feet as he charged toward Madara. He was so fast that he was like a blue lightning bolt.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Might Guy rushed toward Madara and launched a three-hit combo, but unfortunately, Madara was even faster than him even though he had opened the Seventh Gate. All three strikes missed and left three large craters in the ground.

"Pilgrimage of the Sun!"

While Might Guy was charging, Nagasawa also took action. He gathered his power and unleashed a searing flame slash toward Madara, cutting off his escape route.

Madara had to decide whether to withstand Nagasawa's slash or Might Guy's assault.

Guy noticed this and used a technique that he could only use once he opened the Seventh Gate, Daytime Tiger!

Might Guy placed a palm facing forward in front of his face with one hand and then tapped it with his other hand, formed into a fist, which created a massive amount of air pressure that he launched at Madara

Roar!!

The air pressure left a gigantic tiger-shaped impression as it was blasted at Madara.

"Do you guys think you corner me here?" Madara said as he overpowered Daytime Tiger with his Six Paths Staff and then transformed the Truth-Seeking Balls into thorns to fend off Nagasawa's Pilgrimage of the Sun!

Which one to face? Sorry, but he'd take on both!

Seeing that Madara managed to overwhelm Daytime Target, Might Guy retreated with an injured arm due to Daytime Tiger's backlash, and Nagasawa covered him to prevent Madara from killing him.

The situation was becoming precarious for Nagasawa. He had already expended a considerable amount of Chakra in his previous battle with Obito. At this rate, he'd automatically exit Sage Mode in just two minutes due to lack of Chakra.

He at first thought he had enough Chakra for this battle, but he had underestimated Sage Mode. Only someone like Hashirama could maintain Sage Mode constantly.

"Guy, are you okay?" Kakashi asked, looking at Guy, who was clutching his arm.

Guy shook his head and calmly said, "I'm fine. It's just a broken arm and a few broken ribs."

Kakashi was speechless; Guy's definition of "fine" was quite different.

"Madara is too strong. Even pure Taijutsu barely has any effect on him," Kakashi furrowed his brow.

Although they were both in the Six Paths Sage Mode, Madara and Obito seemed completely different. Madara was simply overwhelming.

Just now, both Might Guy's Daytime Tiger and Nagasawa's Pilgrimage of the Sun were extremely powerful techniques, but they were both fended off by Madara.

Hearing Kakashi starting to sound pessimistic, Guy seemed somewhat upset as he stepped back.

"Wait, Kakashi, isn't it too early to say that Taijutsu is useless? Don't give up hope so easily," Guy said seriously.

"But..." Kakashi felt that there was something off about Guy's demeanor and was about to say something.

"Not all dreams may come true, but without dreams, how can you achieve what you want? Just like when I challenged you back then," Might Guy said earnestly.

At this moment, his usual smiling face was replaced by seriousness.

In his childhood, he was extremely weak that he almost didn't qualify to enter the Academy. Nevertheless, he resolutely challenged Kakashi, who was considered a genius at the time.

Although he was defeated miserably and Kakashi won with only a single move, if he didn't have the courage to challenge Kakashi back then and set his sight to win against Kakashi, he wouldn't become the man he was today!

"Guy, are you really going to use that?" Kakashi exclaimed in astonishment.

As Might Guy's closest friend, Kakashi was well aware of the Eight Gates technique. He himself could even open a few Gates, so he knew that there was an even more powerful state than the formidable Seventh Gate; the Eighth Gate, also known as the Gate of Death.

Kakashi could sense that with Guy's current strength, opening all Eight Gates might give him the power to rival the Five Kage and more. However, such a sudden surge of immense power came at a great cost - the user's life.

"That technique leads to certain death," Kakashi couldn't help but warn Guy.

Even though he knew that Guy understood the consequences of opening the Gate of Death better than anyone, Kakashi still felt compelled to remind him.

"It's not about showing off. It's about using my life to protect what's most important right now," Guy replied solemnly as his aura grew stronger.

Back during the Third Great Shinobi War, Guy's team was unlucky enough to be surrounded by Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist on the battlefield without any reinforcement nearby. Just when Guy and his teammates were in despair, Guy's father, who was mocked as an Eternal Genin, stepped up. He sacrificed himself by opening the Eighth Gate to cover their retreat.

In that moment, Guy understood what his father meant when he said that youth would not fade until death, and that the pinnacle of youth was the moment before death. True victory wasn't about defeating strong opponents; it was about protecting what was dear until the very end.

Now, Guy felt it was time to burn his flame of youth. His dear friend Kakashi was on this dangerous battlefield, as was his beloved student, Rock Lee. Many things he wanted to protect were at stake by the outcome of this battle.

"The Eight Gate....." Just as Guy's aura reached its peak, someone patted his shoulder, suppressing his surging Chakra and preventing him from immediately opening the Eighth Gate.

"Second Hokage, why..." Guy looked at Nagasawa in confusion.

Guy didn't move away because it was Nagasawa; he didn't expect Nagasawa to intervene like this.

Nagasawa didn't immediately respond to Guy's question but instead said, "Wherever leaves dance, fire will burn. The shadow of fire illuminates the village and allows new leaves to sprout. That's the Will of Fire. How can I, as the Hokage, watch my successors use a Forbidden Technique that burns their lives away? You should sit back and watch."

While speaking, Tobirama also used Medical Ninjutsu to treat Guy's body.

"It's really boring. I thought I might see some red steam," Madara began to approach Kakashi.

He deliberately held back because he wanted to witness Guy's Eight Gate.

"Boring indeed. I hope you can still say that later," Nagasawa chuckled.

Although he knew that Naruto would prevent Guy from dying after receiving Sage of the Six Paths' power, he didn't want to see Guy experience that kind of pain. After all, Guy from another world was also his disciple.

This body was created by the system anyway, and he had gained much more than he had expected at this point.

While perceiving the sun, he realized two modes. One was the current one, where his whole body radiated golden light. Nagasawa called this the "Radiant Sun Mode." When developed to its fullest, it possessed the power of the real sun and could initiate nuclear fusion by itself.

The other mode was what Tobirama called the "Supernova Mode." When activated, it would burn everything on his body to gain ultimate power. Although it only lasted for a moment, the burst of power during that moment would overpower everything else.

So, Nagasawa referred to this mode as the "Supernova Mode."

At this moment, powerful energy erupted from Nagasawa's body. To avoid accidentally harming Kakashi and Guy, Tobirama had positioned himself far enough away from them.

The ground shattered, and large chunks of soil and stone were lifted into the sky by the immense force, as if this entire area had lost its gravity.

"What is this power?" Madara's Rinnegan widened in disbelief as he witnessed Nagasawa's sudden outburst of power.

"Limbo: Border Jail!" Uchiha Itachi directly used his Rinnegan's unique ability. He hadn't used it earlier because it returned to Madara, and he couldn't use it for a certain amount of time.

This was one of the reasons why he had to reclaim his other Rinnegan. One Rinnegan could form one shadow, but with two, he could form four!

However, just as Madara's shadow approached Nagasawa, Nagasawa made his move.

Nagasawa's black sword was no longer predominantly black; it was now entirely enveloped in a thick golden flame, resembling a golden fiery sword.

Nagasawa made a gentle swing, and the towering golden flames covered a radius of ten meters around him, instantly incinerating Madara's shadow to ashes.

Not only Madara's shadow but everything within ten meters around Nagasawa was burned to nothingness.

At this moment, Tobirama appeared like a true sun, radiating blinding light from his entire body, obscuring his figure.

The brilliant light illuminated the entire battlefield, the entire area, and possibly even the entire continent.

In the villages outside the battlefield, people who had been toiling through the night suddenly found themselves in what seemed like broad daylight, utterly bewildered.
