Lightning Release: Body Flicker!
Sasuke moved without warning! Blinding blue lightning exploded around him, his lightning chakra merging with his extreme speed, his figure transforming into a winding, thunderous streak that tore through the thick fog!
This is the "Lightning Body Flicker" after injecting lightning chakra into the cells, and its speed even surpasses Zabuza's visual capture limit!
"Behind me!" Zabuza's fighting instincts kicked in, and he blocked with his hand, but only a fleeting arc of electricity flashed across his fingertips.
The real attack comes from above—
Fire Release: Great Dragon Flame Bullet!
The enormous, fiery white dragon head roared and crashed down!
This was no ordinary Dragonfire Blast, but an explosive burst of flame compressed to its limit. The surrounding mist was instantly evaporated, and the scorching heat forced Tazuna to crouch down!
"Water Escape: Water Formation Wall!"
Zabuza quickly formed hand seals, causing the surrounding river to rise rapidly and form a water wall in front of him.
The Land of Waves' abundant water resources greatly enhanced the abilities of water-attribute ninjas.
"boom--!!"
Flames clashed violently against the water wall, sending white steam billowing into the sky.
The high-temperature steam caused Zabuza to groan, and blisters appeared on his exposed skin.
He was forced to withdraw his water-style technique, only to be met with Sasuke's bloodshot and icy gaze—
Illusion Technique: The Art of Shackles!
Three enormous wedges burning with black flames suddenly pierced through the void, piercing through Zai Bu's four limbs!
Excruciating pain and a feeling of being bound swept through my nerves—it was an illusion!
Zabuza tensed up. He knew about this illusion, but knowing it didn't stop the struggle from being delayed by half a second by the power of his three-tomoe eyes.
Sasuke transforms into lightning and charges forward!
The lightning wrapped around his right hand was no longer the sharp cry of a thousand birds, but solidified into the form of the spear of the thunder god!
The ultimate lightning release gives it a sharpness that can penetrate any defense, aiming straight for Zabuza's heart!
"Pfft——!"
Zabuza, relying on the will of a veteran of the battlefield, forcibly twisted his body, the lightning spear grazing his ribs and piercing through, exploding a charred, bloody hole the size of a bowl!
A mist of blood mixed with the pungent smell of burning flesh filled the air.
"Ugh—!" Zabuza staggered to his knees, blood soaking the soil beneath his feet.
He looked up and stared intently at Sasuke, his eyes filled with a mixture of horror and rage: "The Sharingan of the Uchiha... plus the ultimate power of lightning and fire... you brat!"
Is this the strength of the Uchiha descendants?
He just graduated from college, right?
Is this all the strength he has?
This is stronger than the Uchiha elites he encountered on the battlefield?
Are the Uchiha clan members really that talented?
The lightning around Sasuke gradually subsided, but his Sharingan remained locked on Zabuza.
A wisp of fire and a spark of electricity danced between his fingertips, his voice chilling to the bone: "No matter who you are or what kind of ninjutsu you use, before these eyes you are nothing but a charade in the fog."
The fog thinned due to the high temperature.
Naruto weighed the Executioner's Blade in his hand, a slight smile playing on his lips; Hinata's Byakugan clearly saw Zabuza's chakra in turmoil.
The outcome of this duel between the demon and the Uchiha genius is already decided.
Although Zabuza became wary of the three-tomoe Sharingan, he underestimated Sasuke's strength and fell into a passive position. He also lost his Executioner's Blade and was completely overwhelmed by Sasuke's combo of Sharingan insight, high-speed lightning release attack, fire release suppression, genjutsu control, and lightning spear finishing blow.
But Zabuza was unwilling to give up. He was a renowned demon, and even if his opponent was an Uchiha, he was not the kind of person who would sit idly by and wait for death.
He jumped onto the water, and the thin mist became thick again.
"Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"
In the thick fog, Zabuza formed hand seals and unleashed a ninjutsu, attempting to take down Sasuke and Naruto in one fell swoop with a wide-range attack.
Sasuke's lips curled slightly as he merely formed a 'noon' seal.
As Zabuza completed his hand seals, a colossal wave rose from the ground like a mountain range! The powerful current churned up silt from the riverbed, carrying broken trees as it crashed against the shore—a cataclysmic event capable of engulfing the entire battlefield!
The character "午" (noon) lingered on Sasuke's fingertip for a moment.
The three-tomoe Sharingan spun rapidly in the gale, dissecting the trajectory of the waves, the vortex of chakra, and the weak points of the water pressure.
Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation.
Unlike the previous blazing white dragon, this time what poured out of Sasuke's mouth was a crimson-gold sea of fire that could burn the heavens and the earth!
The flames did not erupt in a straight line, but rather spread out in a fan shape according to the trajectory predicted by the Sharingan, like a torrent of lava rushing towards the giant wave.
The Land of Waves' abundant water resources greatly enhance the abilities of water-attribute ninjas.
However, Sasuke, who has mastered the fire element to its extreme, has an incredibly abundant chakra pool due to his years of dedicated taijutsu training.
Attribute suppression is merely a stepping stone for geniuses.
"Swoosh—Boom!!!"
The moment the crimson-gold fire curtain collided with the azure waves, a hellish roar echoed across the battlefield!
The contact surface exploded into a vacuum bubble with a diameter of 100 meters, and the overpressure steam swept across the field like thousands of razors, scraping away three feet of the rock strata on the shore!
Zabuza's pupils constricted: his giant wave was actually split in two by flames!
The surging wall of water collapsed and evaporated layer by layer under the advance of the sea of fire, and the scorching heat wave rolled back, slapping his battered body away!
"Impossible... such a wide-range fire jutsu...!" He coughed up blood and crashed into a charred tree stump, his eyes reflecting the inferno that had burned rivers and lakes—
The Uchiha boy stood at the edge of the sea of fire, his black clothes billowing in the heat, his Sharingan even more crimson than the flames.
“Your water,” Sasuke’s fingertips crackled with lightning once more, his voice piercing through the steam, “is nothing more than the embers that temper my edge before the fire of the Uchiha.”
Chapter 40 Hinata vs. White
Zabuza passed away peacefully.
Having been severely injured by Sasuke, he was completely powerless to resist.
As Sasuke pierced his heart with the Lightning Blade, he could only stare helplessly at Sasuke.
"Weakness is the original sin." Sasuke pulled Zabuza's heart out, shook the blood off his hand, and said coldly and arrogantly.
He had wanted to say this for a long time!
Haku, who had rushed over to save Zabuza, could only watch helplessly as Zabuza died at Sasuke's hands, overwhelmed by Sasuke's speed.
His eyes turned red instantly.
This boy, whose heart was filled with Zabuza, had his eyes red for the first time, and an uncontrollable killing intent arose in his heart.
He wanted to kill this Uchiha to avenge Lord Zabuza.
Then he committed suicide.
But instead of Sasuke, he was facing a Byakugan girl.
Hinata stood in front of Haku.
Her white eyes were already activated, and the bulging veins around them added a hint of murderous intent to her delicate face.
"Get out of the way!" Haku's voice was filled with killing intent; he only wanted to kill that Uchiha.
"Impossible," Hinata said, shaking her head.
Ice Release: Demonic Mirror Ice Crystal!
Bai's voice was no longer just cold; it had gained a touch of hysterical madness.
Almost the instant his words fell, the water vapor condensing in the air quickly transformed into floating, smooth, mirror-like ice mirrors!
Hinata felt herself instantly enveloped in a bone-chilling cold as several ice mirrors appeared out of thin air, surrounding her in the center.
These ice mirrors are not stationary.
Bai's figure moved at high speed, refracting light between the ice mirrors like a ghost. The speed was so fast that only a blurry afterimage and the cold light flashing in the ice mirrors could be seen.
This is precisely the instant-kill technique that made him famous!
"Die!" Haku roared with boundless grief and indignation, shooting out from the ice mirror closest to Hinata's side!
Along with him appeared an overwhelming barrage of ice needles, each one shimmering with a deadly light, tearing through the air and enveloping Hinata like a sudden downpour!
This could be a deadly threat to others.
However, it's completely inadequate in the face of a 360-degree, unblinding gaze.
Hinata's body moved instantly, without the slightest hesitation.
"Gentle Fist Technique: Reversing Heaven!"
At this moment, her petite body unleashed an astonishing burst of chakra!
A massive spherical chakra shield generated by high-speed rotation firmly protected her at the center.
The chakra shield spun rapidly, forming a perfect, absolute defensive domain.
Ding ding ding ding ding——!
The ice needles crashed into the rapidly spinning Kaiten, producing a dense, crisp explosion!
The hard ice needles were either deflected and shattered by the powerful chakra flow, or cracked inch by inch by the gentle force attached to them the moment they made contact!
No chakra could penetrate the ever-spinning barrier.
Bai's first decisive attack was blocked!
A flicker of extreme astonishment and resentment flashed in his eyes.
The strength of this girl with the white eyes completely exceeded his expectations!
He hadn't even completed a full attack!
"That Uchiha! He killed Lord Zabuza! I must... kill him!" Haku's killing intent intensified, but at the same time, it was tinged with a twisted pain.
He ignored Hinata's defensive stance and focused all his anger and attention on Sasuke in the distance.
His figure once again darted between the ice mirrors, attempting to bypass Hinata.
Hinata stopped using the Reincarnation technique, her face calm. Releasing the Reincarnation technique would consume a lot of chakra, but this amount of chakra was nothing compared to Hinata's.
Since starting training with Naruto, Hinata has been able to eat her fill every day, and her chakra reserves have become incredibly vast.
She is the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan, with the strongest Hyuga bloodline.
Just as Haku was trying to use the ice mirror to refract and bypass her defenses from a tricky angle to rush towards Sasuke, Hinata moved!
The white eye precisely locked onto the rapidly moving white.
"Gentle Fist Technique - Double Lion Fist!"
Hinata let out a sharp cry, and two enormous, ferocious lion heads formed from highly concentrated chakra appeared in her palms!
Hinata predicted Haku's movement trajectory with a millisecond's difference, and with a giant fist of chakra that roared like a lion, she slammed it hard towards the ice mirror that Haku was about to appear!
"Bang-click!"
The ice mirror was instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks, and then it exploded with a bang!
Bai felt an incomparably powerful chakra force surge out from behind the shattered mirror, forcing him to abruptly stop his movement and hastily form hand seals.
"Ice Shield - Ice Rock Hall Without End!"
A thick wall of ice instantly materialized in front of him!
The two lion-like fists slammed heavily against the ice wall! Huge shards of ice crystals flew everywhere!
The ice wall was exceptionally sturdy, blocking the lion's head from the frontal impact.
But the essence of Hinata's Gentle Fist lies in its penetrating power!
