The countless ice crystals shattered into dazzling fragments under the sunlight, creating a scene of spectacular beauty. However, to the cloud ninja, it was nothing but a chilling horror. As Gensou, like the reaper himself, sent one cloud ninja after another to their doom, there was a loud bang.
The Fourth Raikage A's body trembled, and the massive Lightning Release chakra,
comparable to that of a tailed beast, exploded from him, shattering the thick ice within a five-meter radius into pieces.
"Bee!"
The Fourth Raikage A roared, transforming into a streak of blue lightning, charging towards Gensou.
In sync with his brother, Killer Bee reverted to his human form, his body enveloped in the deep red chakra of the Eight-Tails, becoming a red lightning bolt that sped towards Gensou. From left and right, the duo accelerated to such a speed that even Gensou could barely track them.
Just as Gensou was about to form a hand sign, preparing to counter,
"Lariat!"
With impeccable timing, the A-B Combo raised their massive arms, striking like gigantic hammers, and with the momentum of their powerful charge, they aimed to smash Gensou's head.
Before Gensou could react, like countless other ninjas who faced the A-B Combo's deadly move, his head flew into the air.
Yet, there was no hint of triumph on the faces of the Fourth Raikage A and Killer Bee.
"When did he...?"
Seeing the headless body of Gensou transform into an ice clone and the decapitated head into an ice sculpture, the Fourth Raikage A's eye twitched.
"Ah!"
The last remaining cloud ninja screamed in agony.
The Fourth Raikage A quickly turned his head to see Gensou emerging from the surface of an ice sculpture, stepping out of the ice with ease.
Glancing at the decapitated ice clone, Gensou said with a hint of surprise, "Not a bad technique. It seems that the Hidden Cloud Village hasn't been stagnant all these years."
Clenching his fists, the Fourth Raikage, furious, shouted, "You bastard! Stop acting all high and mighty!"
BOOM!
Thunder roared in the sky as the Fourth Raikage stomped his right foot. The earth and ice cracked beneath him, and he charged at Gensou like an unstoppable tank.
Killer Bee, covered in the Tailed Beast Cloak, charged alongside him.
"Ice Release: Icicle Spears!"
Gensou's calm voice reached their ears.
In an instant, numerous sharp, thick ice spikes shot up from beneath their feet, aiming to impale them.
The Fourth Raikage A and Killer Bee paused, either dodging or forcibly smashing through the spikes.
Seizing the moment, Gensou moved, gliding across the ice with unprecedented speed, rushing towards the A-B Combo.
Instants later.
The A-B Combo was sent flying, looking somewhat battered.
Though Gensou's chakra seemed diminished, his fighting spirit only grew stronger.
"Gyuki!"
Seeing the situation worsen, Killer Bee shouted internally.
Gyuki sighed. Though reluctant, it chose to aid its partner.
"Roar!!!"
As Gensou was about to pursue, a massive shadow suddenly descended from the sky. Gensou swiftly halted and retreated.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
BOOM!!!
The next second, a giant crater appeared on the ground.
Dust surged like ocean waves in all directions as Hagoromo Gensou looked up to see the fully transformed Eight-Tails.
"A perfect jinchuriki."
Gensou analyzed while moving to the left.
With a mighty gust of wind, a massive octopus tentacle smashed where he had been standing.
After missing its mark, the Eight-Tails retracted its tentacle. Gensou leaped onto a nearby tentacle and ran towards the Eight-Tails' head, effortlessly navigating the writhing appendages.
Realizing the danger, the Eight-Tails retracted its tentacles, wrapping them around its body to form a completely sealed ball that began to spin rapidly.
Tailed Beast Twister!
A violent storm erupted from the Eight-Tails, so powerful that it blew Hagoromo Gensou away and shattered the icy landscape he had created.
Simultaneously, the Fourth Raikage A seized the opportunity. In a flash, he appeared beside the airborne Gensou, delivering a powerful punch.
WHOOSH!
Gensou flew like a cannonball again.
"Now's the time!"
The Eight-Tails raised its head, forming a massive Tailed Beast Bomb in front of its mouth.
The sky and earth seemed to change color at this moment.
With an attack powerful enough to shatter mountains, the Tailed Beast Bomb shot towards
Gensou.
The next moment.
In the Eight-Tails' expectant eyes, the Tailed Beast Bomb dispersed instantly, leaving
everything calm and quiet.
"How is this possible?"
White smoke sizzled from Gensou's outstretched palm.
Feeling the newly injected chakra in his body, he smiled and said, "Quite a taste. Got any
more?"
Gyuki and Killer Bee's faces were filled with disbelief:
"He can absorb a Tailed Beast Bomb?"
They were familiar with Dark Release.
Due to Gensou's battle at the Valley of End, the Hidden Cloud Village had specifically sought out users of Dark Release to test the limits of its chakra absorption, conducting numerous
experiments and recording the results.
It was confirmed that while Dark Release could absorb jutsu, it had a fixed limit.
A fully charged Tailed Beast Bomb from the Eight-Tails was beyond the absorbable range for Dark Release and would cause the user to explode.
Unlike other Kekkei Genkai that could unleash greater power with more chakra, Dark Release
had a definitive limit.
Otherwise, Dark Release users would have long dominated the ninja world, instead of being
nearly unheard of, save for Gensou.
This was why the Eight-Tails had chosen to attack Gensou with a Tailed Beast Bomb.
But things had gone beyond their expectations.
Gensou was clearly different from other Dark Release users.
"No wonder he's a man on par with Hashirama and Madara. Although we don't know why he's
in a weakened state now. Bee, we must prepare," Gyuki said.
"But Big Brother is still fighting," Killer Bee replied resolutely.
"Gyuki, let's go again!"
