Chapter 515: One Punch's Power
"Those are impressive eyes," Tobi's voice became somewhat suppressed, indicating that he was also enduring the same pressure as Sasuke. Especially since Ryoha seemed to focus this pressure specifically on the two of them, amplifying their sense of strain.
"Even if you obtain the Eye of the Moon, what difference does it make? The strength of either myself or Tsunade has reached a level where even if the Six Paths of Pain were resurrected, they wouldn't be our match. You want to use the Eye of the Moon against me? Haha, the Infinite Tsukuyomi is just a laughable plan," Ryoha lightly jumped from the beam and landed on the ground.
"Isn't it quite hollow if you don't strive for it a bit? Just like you, provoking the Five Great Countries to unite against you. Isn't that a kind of emptiness?" The masked man took a deep breath, and it seemed that his decision was correct; he had to unite the Five Great Countries.
He regretted that if he had known back then, he would have paid the price of an eye and joined forces with Pain to eradicate Ryoha. But he didn't want to. At the time, Ryoha had many cards, and he wasn't the only one. Also, Ryoha could use the Hiraishin no Jutsu. Was it that easy to erase him with a word?
"No, this isn't emptiness. It's a self-challenge. At the same time, I want to participate in a glorious and satisfying way in the last brilliance of the Ninja World. Can't you see that? Regardless of whether you are willing to unite against me or not, in the end, the Five Great Countries or the five hidden villages will disappear. In the future, there will only be a single existence ruling the Ninja World."
"Since the Ninja World will be ruled by me in the future, won't I be bored without anyone resisting me? In that case, why not have an unprecedented battle before unifying the Ninja World? What are you waiting for? Today is the warm-up match of the Allied Ninja Forces of the Five Great Countries and the Akatsuki, with me, Ryoha, and the people by my side. Don't worry; for the upcoming unprecedented battle, I will give you enough time to prepare. So this time, I won't kill you. To be precise, I won't kill some of your more important people. Come on, the tactic of a sea of people is something you are accustomed to using. But I like it too. Come on!"
Ryoha opened his hands, and the five fingers pointed in his direction, slightly gesturing that they could attack together.
"Don't be too arrogant, you little brat," A, known for his fiery temper, showed veins on his forehead. He didn't expect that Ryoha would actually be committed to provoking a great war in the Ninja World and even revealed his intention to unify the Ninja World. In this case, wasn't he planning to eliminate Kumogakure? This was something he couldn't accept. Even if he died, he couldn't accept it, let alone the others.
"You're still as impulsive as ever. However, compared to last time, there hasn't been much improvement," watching a mass of lightning rush towards him, even Raikage's speed, which the Sharingan's insight couldn't keep up with, Ryoha flicked his right hand to the right and actually blocked Raikage's fist that appeared in front of him in an instant, then threw Raikage to the side.
"I didn't expect that in the end, I wouldn't be able to avoid a battle with this terrifying man," Samui, Karui, and Yugito were all thinking in their hearts, but no matter what, their concern about the fate of Kumogakure and their place in the village made them feel a great deal of pressure. Hence, they could only stand up and face the formidable enemy with Raikage.
"Dust Release: Atomic Dismantling Jutsu." Seeing Gaara bind Ryoha, both Tsuchikage and Deidara flew up simultaneously, using Dust Release in combination.
"Be cautious of his Dark Guard. It can take any form to evolve and protect him. If you can't break through the Dark Guard, it won't cause any harm to him," Jiraiya recalled Ryoha's terrifying technique that sent shivers down one's spine when he destroyed Konoha. The Dark Guard - this move made all the ninjutsu released by numerous Konoha ninjas ineffective. In Jiraiya's eyes, this move was the truly dreadful defensive technique, truly worthy of being called the absolute defense.
"Gather the strongest techniques, and focus on breaking a point," Raikage roared, and his whole body was shimmering with dazzling lightning. The floor under his feet was completely shattered. It was clear that he was concentrating lightning-natured chakra, similar to the technique where the destructive power was concentrated at a point, like the Chidori or Raikiri.
"Lightning Release - Black Panther." Seeing that the combined Dust Release by Tsuchikage and Deidara was ineffective, Darui from Kumogakure immediately transformed into a black panther shimmering with lightning and charged at Ryoha. The speed was astonishing, and the power was extremely strong.
"The Five Kages, along with the masked man, are my husband's opponents. I can't steal his battle. I'll handle the others," when Darui, the Kumogakure Ninja, came within a meter of Ryoha, he suddenly froze in place when reached that distance.
"The others, deal with Kurenai and the woman from the Kurama clan quickly. Resolve them first before coming to face Ryoha again," Tsuchikage shouted, charging once again at Ryoha.
"Being in the way here might affect everyone's performance. Dark Susanoo!." A colossal and incomparable Susanoo appeared on Ryoha, making Uchiha feel like a mere ant.
Now Sasuke could also use Susanoo, but his Susanoo, whether in terms of destructive power or size, couldn't be compared to Ryoha's. If Sasuke's Susanoo was a small cat, Ryoha's Susanoo was a Northeast tiger; the two had no comparability at all.
"Destroy!" Ryoha uttered two words, and without summoning any weapons with Susanoo, the unarmed Susanoo's fist suddenly struck the ground, releasing astonishing force. The resulting shockwave instantly destroyed the buildings of the Five Kage Summit, turning them into a heap of recyclable rubbish.
"What terrifying destructive power, and it was just one punch," Jiraiya's face changed drastically. A moment ago, he still had four other Kages, not to mention numerous other ninjas, who had used various defensive ninjutsu together. However, they found their defenses to be extremely fragile before Susanoo's fist.
If it weren't for Susanoo targeting only this building, most of them might have died by now. Nevertheless, even so, they were horrified to find that the ground beneath their feet had been devastated. The sand and rocks surged, the earth was severely cracked, and the ripple effect was massive. With the naked eye, it was impossible to see how much of the earth's surface was destroyed by this punch.
