Land of Fire, Eastern Front.
Under the leadership of Uzumaki Mito, the Konoha forces reached the battlefield in less than half a day, running headlong into the Kumo surprise attack unit that had been capturing cities and territories along the way.
Tensions ran high between the two sides, and fierce combat erupted the mont they t.
"Zzzzt! Zzzzt!"
The Second Raikage, his entire body crackling with lightning, stood out conspicuously among the crowd as he charged alone into the Konoha ranks, rampaging like a human-shaped bulldozer.
"Earth Style: Earth-Style Wall!"
The three jonin quickly ford hand seals and jointly erected a tall, thick earthen wall, but it couldn't stop the Raikage's advance in the slightest. Instead of retreating, he accelerated and smashed straight through the barrier with sheer force.
After ascending to beco the Second Raikage, he inherited the title of the First Raikage, henceforth changing his na to 'A' to uphold the Raikage's conviction!
"Ugh!"
His two thick, brawny arms seed cast from bronze, instantly snapping the necks of two jonin in a single encounter, as the pungent scent of blood wafted through the wind.
His footsteps halted abruptly, plowing deep furrows into the ground before he pivoted and charged toward the last earth-style ninja.
"Water Style: Water Wave Jutsu!"
"Earth Style: Earth Flow River!"
Allied forces arrived just in ti from the flank and rear, temporarily saving the ninja's life. The water, as vast as a pond, rged with the surging mudflow, creating a fiercely rushing quagmire across a hundred-ter radius of flat ground, which also hindered the Raikage's speed.
"Earth Release: Heaven-Splitting Pot Lid!!!" the jonin roared, his potential unleashed in this critical mont as he slamd both hands onto the ground.
The Second Raikage slightly raised his head as a massive shadow lood over him from above. The next second, a colossal earthen lid dozens of ters in diater crashed down from the sky, accompanied by a deafening roar, splattering mud and water everywhere.
"Did we get him?"
"Are you an idiot? That's the Raikage, scatter now!"
Just as expected, a trendous impact sound erupted from the pot lid adorned with a blue-faced, fanged demon. In less than three seconds, cracks spread across its surface before a thunderous 'boom'—the Raikage burst through the top cover, and a lightning-wreathed kunai instantly pierced the Earth Release ninja's skull!
"Righteous Thunder: Raging Thunder Axe!"
The Raikage raised his right leg high like a falling great axe, cleaving toward another group of reinforcents, slicing through the air with a piercing shriek.
The others couldn't dodge in ti—their attention had been diverted by the kunai. The Raikage's speed was simply too fast; under the overwhelming pressure, they could only watch helplessly as he closed in on them.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Jutsu!"
With a resounding dragon's roar, a massive water dragon surged from the side, forcefully pushing back the Raikage's unstoppable descending attack by three feet, creating space for everyone to evade!
"Boom!"
The ground shattered, but no one was injured. Several jonin who had narrowly escaped death turned around, casting grateful glances at a youth of about seventeen or eighteen years old.
"We're saved, Kosuke!"
"Nice one!"
The Raikage slowly turned his head, locking eyes with the boy. 'It seems you're the target that needs to be eliminated first.'
As chakra erupted abruptly, the lightning around him grew even more intense. The high-voltage electricity activated every cell in his body, propelling his speed to a terrifying level.
The young Maruboshi Kosuke barely had ti to blink before a burly figure charged at him, a horizontal hand strike tearing through the air!
"Lightning Blade: Horizontal Slash!"
"Not good..."
At the critical mont, a delicate hand reached out from behind and lightly pulled on his shoulder. With a gentle yet powerful force, Kosuke was flung away. In his blurred vision from the high speed, a slender and graceful figure flashed past him, her red ponytail dancing like a sprite.
Facing the thunderous light was a fair, jade-like hand.
"Boom!"
Their palms collided with trendous force, unleashing a violent shockwave that tore through the ground and sent debris flying.
The Raikage was sent flying like a bolt of lightning, his feet skidding across the ground until he finally ca to a halt after sliding over a dozen ters.
He discreetly shook his numb arm—for the first ti in his life, he had been sent flying by a single strike from a woman.
'Monstrous strength?' His eyes narrowed slightly as he studied the valiant woman before him. 'You are... Mito Uzumaki, the wife of the First Hokage?'
Mito's voice was coldly elegant, carrying the authority of one who stood above others. 'In the past, you would have addressed as Lady Mito.'
"Tis have changed!" the Raikage growled in a muffled voice.
"Trespassing on our borders so brazenly warrants death!" Mito's vermilion lips parted slightly as an imnse chakra surged from her delicate fra, materializing into a translucent crimson cloak.
"The rumors are true—you can indeed suppress the Seven-Tails within you at will." The Raikage's eyes glead with newfound caution.
Mito wasted no words on him, her figure agile and ethereal, a jade-like leg whipping through the air like a long whip, leaving afterimages as it lashed toward the Raikage's head.
The Raikage imdiately bent down, dodging the whip-like kick while bending his knee to push off the ground, his headbutt slamming fiercely into Mito's abdon. This wild move vividly embodied the combat style characteristic of Kumogakure.
At the critical mont, a pair of radiant, enormous insect wings burst forth from Mito's back, their entire form crystal-clear like erald jade. With just a slight flutter, her figure shifted horizontally through the air, effortlessly leaning back.
Lightning flashed as the Raikage's charge narrowly grazed past the majestic twin peaks.
"Crackle."
With a golden flash, under the cover of insect wings, over a dozen pale golden chains extended from Mito's back, effortlessly entangling the Raikage's legs.
Mito's wings fluttered into afterimages as she shot straight into the sky, dragging the Raikage along.
'Damn it, my chakra is sealed!' The Raikage's face turned ashen as the Lightning Release chakra coating his body slowly faded. Watching the ground grow increasingly distant, a fierce resolve surged in his heart.
He simply grabbed the chains and yanked with sheer physical strength.
The montum slowed, and Mito's figure ca to a montary halt.
At that very mont, a massive bolt of lightning split the night sky, striking both of them, the deafening thunderclap nearly rupturing eardrums.
Mito let out a muffled groan as countless tiny electric arcs invaded her body's surface, causing temporary paralysis. The chakra chains loosened in response.
Seizing the opportunity, the Raikage broke free from his restraints. Far from harming him, the lightning had actually invigorated him—years of tempering his body with electricity had granted him exceptional resistance to thunder.
In stark contrast, Mito's delicate fra emitted wisps of scorched smoke as she plumted uncontrollably, landing on the ground at the sa ti as the Raikage.
Mito landed with a standard "superhero-style" pose, her snow-white, slender legs making a stunning appearance.
Thanks to the Tailed Beast chakra covering her body, she didn't sustain much damage, though her armor was severely damaged. She imdiately released her chakra, dispelling the lightning that had invaded her system.
The thick smoke before her instantly parted to both sides as the Raikage charged at her once more.
The pale blue lightning illuminated a pair of calm, beautiful eyes and her serene, unreadable face.
The Raikage reacted swiftly, his gaze dropping to discover inky black seals spreading from his palm. In an instant, the dark symbols ford an intricate array that enveloped his entire body.
"What?" His pupils contracted. "Could it be from that mont?"
He suddenly recalled the earlier mont when he had clashed palms with Mito.
"Sealing Technique: Self-Cursing Binding!"
The Raikage sensed sothing was wrong. The sealing formulas on his body suddenly flared with light, and a strange sensation surged from within. His entire body felt as if petrified, losing all control.
At that very mont, a faint floral breeze flashed by as Mito, already in a punching stance, appeared before him in an instant.
Suddenly, an invisible hurricane tore through the earth, forming a wind wall that blocked the Raikage's path. Mito had no choice but to withdraw her attack and defend herself, blown back over a dozen ters by the fierce gale.
A figure landed beside the Raikage.
Towering with silver hair, twin horns protruding from his head, his face bore a trademark smirk of defiance, and in his hand, he gripped a crimson feathered fan.
Ginkaku!!!
Mito's delicate brows furrowed slightly as a wave of doubt rose unbidden in her heart.
Shouldn't he be at the front lines in Kikyō Mountain?
'But since we're here now, none of that matters anymore.' She steadied her breathing, casually plucking a flexible twig to tie up her loose crimson hair.
As her hands lowered, dense Tailed Beast chakra once again enveloped her entire body, her battle skirt fluttering as if stirred by an unfelt wind.
'Secret Technique: Scale Powder Concealnt Jutsu!'
She parted her moist, crimson lips, and countless glittering scales surged forth with the howling gale, instantly enveloping a vast swath of the Cloud ninjas!
