The surrounding Kumogakure Anbu had no other options, throwing various ninjutsu and explosive tags at Sora like they cost nothing, but unfortunately, they could only distract him to a certain extent.

The cliff collapsed, and seawater poured in, creating a scene like the end of the world.

’This won’t work. Their total chakra far exceeds mine. A prolonged battle is disadvantageous for . I must settle this quickly, at least take one of them out first!’

Sora analyzed calmly in his mind.

His gaze locked onto Yugito Nii, who had just suffered a heavy blow and whose aura had wilted considerably.

’Take out the Two-Tails first!’

Sora inhaled sharply, his chest heaving high.

"Boro Breath!"

A dark cyan beam, over fifty ters in diater and condensed with unprecedented destructive energy, shot straight at Yugito Nii, who was struggling to get up!

The sheer power of this strike far surpassed his previous ones!

"Yugito! Dodge it!"

The Third Raikage’s pupils shrank to pinpoints as he roared wildly.

But Yugito, having just been heavily injured by the thunder prison, moved sluggishly and simply couldn’t dodge!!

"NO WAY!!"

At the critical mont, the Eight-Tails, controlled by Killer B, lunged forward desperately, using its massive body to shield the Two-Tails. At the sa ti, it gathered all its tentacles in front of itself, trying to withstand the attack head-on!

BOOM——————!!!

The dark cyan beam slamd violently into the Eight-Tails’ body!

"AAAAAH—!"

Killer B and Gyūki let out agonized screams simultaneously.

The destructive energy furiously corroded the Eight-Tails’ flesh, and its sturdy Tailed Beast Coat rapidly lted away!

"BEE!!"

The Third Raikage’s eyes turned bloodshot. The lightning chakra around his body burned to its absolute limit as he charged recklessly towards the Azure Dragon:

"Hell Stab • One-Finger Hellstab!"

This was his strongest attack!

Concentrating all his physical strength and lightning chakra into a single finger, it possessed the ultimate penetrating power to pierce through anything!

Sensing the threat from behind, Sora’s draconic pupils constricted.

However, he didn’t turn to defend. Instead, he suddenly whipped his dragon tail towards the charging Third Raikage, while simultaneously intensifying the force against the Eight-Tails, who was still enduring the Boro Breath!

This ti, what gathered in his mouth was no longer Boro Breath, but highly compressed lightning and gale-force winds!

"Wind Cutter!"

Amidst the piercing shrieks, one blade of wind after another violently slamd into the Eight-Tails and the Two-Tails!

Squelch—!

Yugito Nii’s Two-Tails form had a full third of its body sliced clean off. Thankfully, she was in her tailed beast form; if it had been her real body taking that hit, she definitely wouldn’t have survived.

The Eight-Tails, Killer B, let out a sky-shaking roar of pain as one of its giant octopus tails was also severed by the wind blades!

Simultaneously, its colossal body was completely blasted away, crashing heavily into the distant sea and sending trendous waves skyward.

"BEE—!"

The Third Raikage’s heart felt as if it were being twisted with knives, but by now, he had also closed in on the Azure Dragon. His One-Finger Hellstab, carrying an aura of unwavering determination, thrust fiercely towards the vulnerable spot on the dragon’s back!

Then!

"Azure Dragon Eight Gates • Seventh Gate, Gate of Wonder, OPEN!"

Within the Azure Dragon’s body, a completely different kind of power erupted!

BOOM!!!

The Third Raikage’s confidently assured One-Finger Hellstab stabbed viciously into the dragon’s scales!

The anticipated scene of piercing through the dragon’s body did not occur!

That One-Finger Hellstab, condensed with all the power of the "Strongest Spear," only managed to penetrate less than a ter deep before being firmly lodged and stopped by the dragon scales and muscles, now reinforced by the Azure Dragon Eight Gates power!

Compared to the kiloter-long dragon body, this one-ter depth was akin to just breaking the skin.

"WHAT?!"

The Third Raikage’s eyes showed utter disbelief.

"Your ’spear’ seems to be inferior to my ’shield’ after all."

Sora’s icy voice rang out. His massive dragon body twisted violently, and a single dragon claw ca swatting down!

Before even the wind pressure of the claw arrived, the terrifying aura had already made the Third Raikage’s breath catch in his throat!

"RAIKAGE-SAMA!!!"

The remaining Anbu cried out in despair.

The Third Raikage looked at the dragon claw that blotted out the sky, then glanced at the Eight-Tails floating on the distant sea surface, now missing one tail, and the Two-Tails on the other side, barely clinging to life. A flicker of resolve passed through his eyes.

’Is this the end...?’

’But the seeds of Kumogakure must survive! Bee and Yugito cannot die here!’

At this mont, he made the sa choice as in the original tiline, when he single-handedly faced ten thousand Iwa-nin for three days and three nights to allow his comrades to escape, ultimately dying in battle.

His gaze beca incredibly firm and insane!

"BRAT!!! CO TO THE AFTERLIFE WITH !!"

The Third Raikage roared explosively. Instead of trying to break free, he frantically burned all his remaining chakra, along with his life force!

His entire body seed to transform into a humanoid sun, the dazzling lightning radiance blinding to behold!

"Lightning Release • Ultimate Suicide!"

He would use his life to severely wound this terrifying Azure Dragon, creating a chance for Killer B and Yugito to escape!

"Trying to self-destruct? Think you’re cultivating immortality or sothing?!"

Sora’s gaze turned cold. His dragon claw didn’t change its trajectory, but within its palm, the symbols of the Four Symbols Seal instantly lit up!

Simultaneously, the Azure Dragon opened its massive maw, and dark cyan energy began to gather rapidly once more!

The dragon claw struck first, viciously pressing down onto the Third Raikage’s chest, where all his energy had condensed!

The power of the Four Symbols Seal forcibly intervened, disrupting and absorbing the lightning chakra on the verge of exploding!

Although it couldn’t completely stop a decisive suicide detonation from a peak Kage-level powerhouse, it greatly slowed and weakened the process and its power!

"WHAT?!"

Feeling the stagnation of the energy within him, the Third Raikage’s eyes flashed with astonishnt.

And in that delayed instant—

"BORO BREATH!!!"

The destructive beam from Sora’s mouth struck the Third Raikage at point-blank range!

BOOM————————!!!!!

The dark cyan beam devoured everything.

The Third Raikage’s figure, blazing with lightning, first burst with a "BANG," then rapidly disintegrated within the beam.

His final consciousness lingered on his boundless attachnt to his village, and a trace of regret at failing to slay his enemy.

The Third Raikage of Kumogakure.

This warrior, hailed as possessing the "Strongest Spear and Shield," fell in this battle!

"RAIKAGE-SAMA!!!"

The remaining Anbu wailed in grief, charging forward fearlessly.

Sora’s cold, draconic pupils swept over them. With a casual sweep of his tail, he swatted them away like flies.

His gaze turned elsewhere.

Killer B of the Eight-Tails, seizing the opportunity monts ago, had already scooped up the severely wounded and unconscious Yugito Nii and fled a great distance.

You had to give him credit—as the man who toyed with Sasuke using just one tentacle, he certainly knew how to make a quick getaway.

Sora watched their fleeing backs but did not give chase.

He manipulated the Eight-Tails’ severed tail and the one-third portion of the Two-Tails’ body in front of him, casually sealing them into a scroll.

The harvest was sufficient.

He slowly deactivated his complete beast transformation, reverting to human form, his complexion slightly pale.

The continuous high-intensity battle, especially the distraction of the Third Raikage’s suicide detonation at the end—though he had hindered it—still packed a considerable punch and had inflicted no small amount of internal injury upon him.

He glanced at the coastline, now a chaotic ss as if scoured by a natural disaster, and the Kumogakure Anbu, so dead, others severely wounded. He did not finish them off.

He turned, his figure flickering a few tis before vanishing from the spot.
