Chapter 12: The Raikage's Killing Intent! This is Not an Ordinary ANBU
The flames burned!
Over a dozen kunai with explosive tags attached instantly detonated.
BOOM!!!
Combined with the power of the Great Fireball, it directly formed a pillar of fire dozens of meters high, shooting into the sky!
The entire dense forest was ignited, and scorching hot air filled the area.
Swish!
Body Flicker Technique!
The Fourth Raikage's speed was simply too fast!
The instant the explosive tags detonated, he flickered over a hundred meters away!
"This ANBU..."
The Fourth Raikage growled through clenched teeth.
This Konoha ANBU member had been hiding in the shadows all along. He clearly did not come with good intentions!
And his strength was too great!
Kage-level!
Looking across the five great ninja villages, you couldn't find a second Kage-level ANBU!
After all, what true expert would be willing to stay in the ANBU!
"Jiraiya, you have a mysterious super ANBU!"
The Fourth Raikage instantly understood.
Could it be that this time, Konoha was going to be ruthless and keep him within the borders of the Land of Fire!??
Boom!
In an instant.
A powerful gale pressed down from above his head.
"So fast!"
The Fourth Raikage's expression changed.
He dodged.
Immediately.
Kazuya, flying through the air, used the Konoha Whirlwind to forcefully kick and break the large tree where he had just been standing!
Rumble!
The large tree, over ten meters tall, broke with a crash and collapsed.
"A taijutsu-type ninja?"
The Fourth Raikage frowned. This ANBU member's speed was extremely fast, and coupled with that powerful chakra, he was definitely not an ordinary person!
"Good!"
"It's rare to encounter a high-speed type ninja. I'll play with you for a bit!"
The Fourth Raikage's spirits were lifted.
The light of the Lightning Release Armor around his body brightened, and he charged forward at extreme speed.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged blows several times. Each time, the kunai in Kazuya's hand grazed the Fourth Raikage's throat, missing by a hair's breadth but never able to connect.
On the contrary.
After a few exchanges, Kazuya's wrist was a little numb.
"Such immense strength!"
"As expected of the brute who dared to chop a Susanoo with his bare hands in the original story!"
Kazuya quickly saw the gap between them.
He had just entered the Kage level and his foundation was not yet stable. Fighting against a seasoned, powerful Kage like the Fourth Raikage was a bit of a struggle.
Moreover, the opponent's speed was extremely fast. If he hadn't just maxed out his Taijutsu Talent and obtained Super Speed Reaction from picking up attributes, the situation would likely be even more dire.
However, Kazuya wasn't in a hurry.
In a few years, after he finished picking up attributes from the night of the Uchiha clan massacre, he could take on ten brutes like the Fourth Raikage with one hand!
Swish!
Swish!
Swish!
The speed of the two grew faster and faster.
The field was almost left with only afterimages.
After several exchanges, although the Fourth Raikage had a slight upper hand, Kazuya didn't show any obvious signs of defeat.
Unbelievable!
At this moment.
Not to mention the Konoha shinobi, even the elite Jōnin from the Cloud and Mist villages were stunned.
What the hell!
When did the Konoha ANBU produce such a monster!??
"This situation is getting more and more wrong!"
Terumi Mei looked at the mysterious Konoha ANBU in the distance, her expression growing graver.
The strength of the Konoha ANBU far exceeded her expectations!
If this ANBU member fighting the Raikage were to attack them, she was afraid she would not be able to return to the Land of Water alive!
"This won't do!"
"If we let this person grow..."
"I'm afraid he'll become Konoha's second Minato Namikaze!!!"
At this moment, a clear killing intent appeared in the Fourth Raikage's eyes.
This ANBU member's speed, strength, and combat experience were all top-notch, far exceeding the level of an elite Jōnin. He was likely at a mid-tier level even among Kage-level shinobi.
His ninjutsu proficiency was probably not lacking either. He was definitely an enemy that could not be ignored.
"Kill!"
The Fourth Raikage was decisive in killing. Since he had made up his mind, the output of his attacks instantly became fiercer.
"Going all out?"
Kazuya's eyes flashed.
If you want to risk your life, that's fine. Konoha naturally has someone who can deal with a rampaging Fourth Raikage!
Body Flicker!
The moment he felt the surge in killing intent, Kazuya directly used the Body Flicker Technique to create distance.
"You don't have the Flying Thunder God!"
"You can't escape!"
The Fourth Raikage's face showed a vicious expression. He found Kazuya's trail and chased after him like a madman.
Poof!
Just then.
Another cloud of white smoke exploded.
Smoke bomb!
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
Kazuya quickly formed hand seals and shot out another super fireball.
"This move again!"
The Fourth Raikage was enraged.
This damned ANBU, using the same move twice. Was he treating the dignified Raikage like a monkey!??
Swish!
This time.
The Fourth Raikage didn't take it head-on at all. He used the Body Flicker Technique, bypassing the fireball with extreme speed and appearing directly behind Kazuya.
"Not good..."
"Be careful!"
Jiraiya, not far away, cried out in alarm.
He had planned to intervene when Kazuya was exhausted, but he didn't expect the Raikage to be so fast and unleash a major killing move.
At this moment.
It was too late for Jiraiya to stop him!
"Die!"
"Arrogant ANBU!"
In an instant, the Fourth Raikage grabbed Kazuya and slammed him fiercely towards the ground.
"Take this!"
"Liger Bomb!!!!"
"Ahhhhhhh!!!!"
ROAR!!!
An extremely terrifying chakra explosion erupted on the field.
The Fourth Raikage had gone all out, intending to finish off this Konoha ANBU!!!
"DIE!!!"
He roared!
The ground instantly shattered!
Liger Bomb!
The Fourth Raikage's super killing move: lifting the enemy and then slamming them into the ground with super heavyweight force, coupled with explosive Lightning Release chakra. So far, no one had survived this move!!!
"No!"
"Kazuya-kun!"
"Captain!"
The Konoha shinobi who saw this scene all turned pale with horror.
Kurenai Yūhi was so anxious she was about to faint!
Impossible!
Could it be that Kazuya was really going to die at the hands of the Raikage!??
