"Raiga! Watch out!"
Toroi’s cry of warning ca too late.
But it was already too late.
Thump!
The muffled sound of claws penetrating flesh clearly reached the ears of everyone present.
Sora’s dragon claw, like a hot knife through butter, effortlessly pierced through the chakra defense Raiga had hastily gathered around his neck, and grasped his neck with pinpoint accuracy.
Crack!
A sickening sound of bone breaking rang out.
The panic and disbelief in Raiga’s eyes instantly froze. His body stiffened violently, then quickly went limp.
Instant kill.
A true instantaneous kill.
In the peak semi-beast state of the second phase Sora envisioned, his speed and power completely overwheld Raiga, a Jonin-level opponent.
"Raiga!!!"
Ganko let out a roar of shock and fury. Watching his companion be easily killed like a chick, imnse fear and anger overwheld him.
"Bastard! I will kill you!"
Ganko went completely berserk. Disregarding everything, he channelled all his chakra. His Earth Release armor thickened once more as he roared and charged at Sora, his massive fist smashing down hard.
Toroi’s expression changed drastically, finally snapping out of his shock completely.
Although he didn’t understand what had happened to Sora, there was no doubt that this monstrous youth before him had raised his threat level to the maximum. It even exceeded any powerful enemy he had encountered before.
"Magnet Release. Iron Sand Needles!"
Toroi no longer dared to hesitate. After casually throwing two shuriken to sever the Fox’s leg tendons, he ford hand seals. Manipulating magnetism, tallic particles from the surrounding sand were rapidly drawn out, coalescing into countless chillingly cold iron sand senbon that shot towards Sora like a rainstorm.
He aid to stop Sora’s attack on Ganko and deliver an area-of-effect strike.
Facing Ganko’s furious giant fist and Toroi’s wide-ranging iron sand attack, there was no fluctuation in Sora’s cyan-gold vertical pupils.
He casually threw Raiga’s corpse aside. The dragon tail on his back, as if possessing a life of its own, suddenly lashed out.
Thwack!
The dragon tail, striking later but arriving first, precisely whipped against the giant rocky fist Ganko was smashing down.
BOOM!!!
An explosion louder than any previous collision erupted.
Ganko’s suprely confident, multi-layered Earth Release hardened giant fist shattered the instant it made contact with the dragon tail. Countless stone fragnts flew in all directions.
"Impossible!!!"
Ganko let out a scream of disbelief. His entire arm twisted into a grotesque angle, blood gushing from the cracks in the shattered rock.
His massive body, as if hit by a high-speed train, flew uncontrollably backwards.
At almost the sa ti, Sora, facing the overwhelming rain of iron sand senbon, simply opened his mouth.
Whoosh!
A scorching hot, cyan-blue tinged dragon breath fla spewed forth.
Not a spherical shape like the Great Fireball, but more like a fan-shaped fla storm, instantly engulfing everything in front of him.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!
The iron sand senbon, infused with Toroi’s chakra and magnetism, rapidly lted and vaporized like ice and snow the mont they contacted the dragon breath fla.
They simply could not penetrate this fla storm.
After the dragon breath, the area in front of Sora was clear. All the iron sand senbon had vanished, even the sand ground had been lted into a glass-like substance.
Silence.
Deathly silence.
Only the sound of the desert wind and Ganko’s groans of pain remained.
Toroi stood in place, the hand holding his shield trembling slightly, a drop of cold sweat slowly sliding down his temple.
But then, the initial shock in his eyes transford into extre gravity and wariness.
He looked at the half-dragon youth standing proudly in the center of the sand, radiating a terrifying aura. He looked at Raiga, instantly killed with casual ease. He looked at Ganko, sent flying and severely wounded by a tail swipe. He looked at his confident Magnet Release attack being effortlessly neutralized by a single breath from the opponent.
A chill swept through his entire body, but it did not make him lose his will to fight. Instead, it ignited the ferocity of a Kumo elite Jonin.
He was Toroi, master of Magnet Release!
This Konoha brat, no, this humanoid monster, was an enemy of unprecedented strength in his career. But the more that was so, the more the glint of battle lust shone in Toroi’s eyes.
Defeating such a monster would prove the weight of his na, Toroi of Magnet Release.
"Ganko! Can you still move?" Toroi did not attack imdiately, instead asking in a low voice to Ganko, who was struggling to get up in the distance.
"Cough... Not dead yet!"
Ganko spat out a mouthful of blood-streaked saliva. His right arm had a comminuted fracture. He could only use his left arm to support himself as he stood up, glaring viciously at Sora.
"Boss, let’s team up and slaughter this little monster!"
Though severely wounded, his tenacious vitality allowed him to retain so combat ability.
Sora’s cold vertical pupils swept over the two, then his figure blurred again, directly pouncing towards Ganko who had just steadied himself.
"Don’t even think about it!"
Toroi was prepared. Almost the instant Sora moved, the square shuriken in his hand were already thrown.
"Magnet Release. Thunder Fang. Twin Assault!"
Two shuriken entwined with intense electricity and magnetism, following bizarre arcs, crossed from left and right to block Sora’s attack path, moving extrely fast.
Sora’s pupils contracted. He had to abandon the attack. His dragonized legs forcefully pushed off the ground, narrowly passing through the gap between the two shuriken.
Buzz, buzz!
Although he successfully avoided them, the intense magnetic field still made Sora feel his body grow slightly heavy, his movents sluggish for an instant.
’Indeed troubleso! This Magnet Release can not only manipulate tal, but also affect the body to so degree!’
Sora thought warily to himself. The formidable physique granted by the Azure Dragon Fruit gave him extrely high resistance to purely physical attacks and most ninjutsu, but the effects of this magnetic force would be significantly lessened.
"Earth Release. Rock Spear Gun!"
In this instant of Sora’s delayed movent, Ganko seized the opportunity, his lone arm slamming the ground.
Thump, thump, thump!
Several sharp rock spears suddenly thrust up from the sand beneath Sora’s feet.
Sora reacted extrely quickly. His dragon tail lashed out like a steel whip, smashing the first few rock spears. Simultaneously, air currents swirled around his feet, using the force to flip backwards, avoiding the subsequent attacks.
But Toroi’s pursuit had already arrived.
"Magnet Release. Shield Charge!"
Toroi charged like a raging bull. That massive shield erupted with lightning, carrying terrifying impact force and magnetic interference, crashing hard towards Sora who was mid-air with no leverage.
If this hit connected squarely, even with Sora’s dragonized defenses, he would definitely not be unscathed.
’Can’t dodge!’
A fierce glint flashed in Sora’s eyes. If he couldn’t dodge, then he would et force with force.
He took a deep breath, his chest swelling slightly, cyan-blue light gathering deep in his throat.
Whoosh!
The scorching dragon breath spewed forth again. Not the wide fan shape from before, but condensed into a searing beam, accurately blasting towards the charging Toroi.
Toroi hadn’t expected Sora to counterattack so quickly and accurately while in the air. His expression changed, hastily shielding himself with the shield held firmly in front.
