Chapter 72 The shock of the Cloud Hidden Envoy, just like the yellow flash of yesteryear!
"So fast? Even Troy's Magnetism can't catch up?"
Chloe was shocked. This speed far exceeded that of an ordinary Jonin, and was even faster than the ninjas of their Hidden Cloud Village who were known for their speed.
Perhaps only the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, can compare to him.
"Too fast! Even faster than when we fought before!"
"Kamizuki-kun, is this the true power you've been holding back?"
"Aside from the Fourth Hokage, Minato, I haven't seen this kind of speed in a long time!"
Orochimaru, watching Shingetsu's astonishing speed, licked his lips, his eyes filled with amazement.
"Approaching the speed of the Yellow Flash back then?" Upon hearing this, Chloe felt an immediate increase in pressure.
He had heard about the Yellow Flash's name and deeds firsthand.
Even when the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, joined forces, they were slightly defeated by the Yellow Flash.
It's remarkable that Kamizuki received such high praise from Orochimaru.
That's quite terrifying.
He dared not be negligent, and his hands formed hand seals again: "Lightning Release: Gratitude Wave!"
A powerful electric current spread outwards from him, attempting to restrict Shenyue's movement with a wide-ranging lightning attack and create an opportunity for Troy.
"Heh heh... Cloud Village's Lightning Release is still so noisy." Orochimaru, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, let out a hoarse laugh. He did not immediately intervene, but observed Shingetsu's fighting style with great interest through his golden vertical pupils.
"Kamizuki-kun, do you need any help?"
"No need, just keep an eye on the barrier and make sure they don't escape."
Shen Yue's voice came through the gaps in the lightning, remaining calm as ever.
"Perfect timing to test my newfound power."
"The Eight Gates Formation, the fifth gate opens!"
The moment the words left her mouth, a terrifying burst of chakra erupted from Shen Yue's body.
Enhanced by intercolumnar cells.
His body is now capable of opening the fifth gate of the Eight Gates Formation at will.
His figure suddenly appeared behind Troy, moving so fast it was as if he had teleported!
He simply threw a punch!
This punch, without any fancy moves, carried a deafening roar that tore through the air!
Before the punch even landed, the fierce wind from the punch already made Troy feel a stinging pain in his cheek.
He hurriedly manipulated the huge shuriken in front of him, intending to use it as a shield to block Shen Yue's attack.
"Bang!"
With a dull thud, the huge shuriken was violently dented and scattered with iron filings by the punch!
Although Troy used the force to retreat quickly, he was still affected by the force of the punch, felt a tightness in his chest, and looked incredulous.
"What terrifying power! He's really only ten years old?!" Troy's throat felt sweet, and his vision went black.
"How can his power be so great?" Chloe, watching from afar, was also shocked by Shen Yue's fierce attack.
The physical abilities that Shenyue displayed were completely contrary to common sense.
If you didn't know better, you'd think the Fourth Raikage had arrived.
"No, we must change our strategy immediately!" He made up his mind.
"Troy, restrain him! Lightning Release: Lightning Tiger - All-Out Attack!" he shouted as he formed hand seals once more.
He summoned several tigers made of lightning, which pounced on Shenyue from different directions. At the same time, he moved quickly, preparing for close combat, in coordination with Troy's Magnet Release.
"Alright!" Troy understood, and despite his discomfort, threw out another giant shuriken filled with the power of Magnet Release.
It was thrown directly at Shenyue.
The two attacked Shenyue simultaneously, aiming to completely block his escape routes.
However, as Kamizuki faced the encirclement, his Sharingan suddenly opened during a gap in the flashing lightning—he had already adapted to the interference of the bright light.
Seeing the approaching Thunder Tiger and the giant, magnetic shuriken, he began to form hand seals with such speed that only afterimages remained.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
"Wind Release: Great Wind Breaker!"
This time, he once again used a large-scale combined ninjutsu of fire and wind.
A raging sea of fire spewed from his mouth, not directly attacking the two, but bombarding the giant magnetic shuriken and the charging thunder tiger!
"Sizzle—!"
The high-temperature flames made contact with the giant shuriken, producing a piercing sound. Some of the iron sand was heated to a bright red, and when Lei Hu crashed into the sea of fire, lightning and fire intertwined, causing a violent explosion. The shockwave blasted the already teetering shuriken away.
"A perfect opportunity!" Chloe seized the brief opening after Shingetsu unleashed his ninjutsu, her entire body crackling with lightning as she concentrated her Lightning Release chakra in her arms, charging forward like a real bolt of lightning: "Lightning Release: Lightning Plow Blade!"
This is a high-level taijutsu technique that combines taijutsu and lightning release, passed down from the Hidden Cloud Village. It is extremely powerful.
He refused to believe that Shen Yue's body was truly more resilient than his own.
"Well done!" A red light flashed in Shen Yue's eyes. Without dodging or avoiding, she also concentrated her chakra in her arm, and a healthy blush appeared under her skin.
This is a manifestation of the partial opening of the Eight Gates and the physical activation brought about by Hashirama's cells. He actually intends to use taijutsu to directly confront the Cloud Village's Lightning Release taijutsu!
"Bang!"
Their arms collided violently, producing a dull, drum-like thud!
The intense collision of lightning and chakra erupted with blinding light and scattered arcs of electricity.
Chloe felt as if she had crashed into a steel wall. Her arm was in excruciating pain and numbness. What shocked her even more was that the opponent's power was actually slightly stronger than her own, which was enhanced by lightning!
He was so shaken that he slid backward several meters, carving two furrows in the ground.
Shen Yue also took a half step back. The sleeve of her arm was scorched by the lightning release, but her skin was only slightly red and she was not injured.
He shook his hand, looked at the bewildered Chloe and Troy, and said in a calm tone: "The Cloud Village's Lightning Release taijutsu has decent power, but its speed is still lacking."
"Arrogant!" Chloe was both shocked and furious. As an elite member of the Cloud Village, she had never been so disrespected.
Just as he was about to attack again, he suddenly felt the ground beneath his feet soften.
"Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld!" Orochimaru, who had not made a move until now, had completed the hand seals at some point. The ground beneath Chloe and Troy's feet instantly turned into a huge swamp, and the sticky mud quickly wrapped around their legs, restricting their movement.
"Orochimaru!" Chloe roared, her body crackling with even more lightning as she tried to vaporize or shake off the mud with her electricity.
Troy also manipulated the magnetic force in an attempt to lift himself up.
"Distraction during battle can be fatal." Shingetsu's icy voice rang in Chloe's ears like a ghost.
The moment he restricted their movements in the Swamp of the Dead, he had already used the Body Flicker Technique to close the distance once again!
This time, his target was clear—Troy!
"It's coming for me!" Troy sensed the danger and immediately manipulated several kunai imbued with Magnet Release to shoot at Shingetsu from different angles, trying to force him back.
The Sharingan of the God Moon spun rapidly, accurately capturing the trajectory of each kunai.
He moved through the gaps in the kunai like a swimming fish.
"Oh no!" Troy exclaimed in alarm, struggling to turn to the side.
"Troy!" Chloe cried out in alarm, struggling desperately to break free of the mud in an attempt to rescue him.
