"They can all fly."
Kawaki Hatake didn't attack Rasa because the Third Kazekage wouldn't let the two young ones off the hook.
"Can't even use a sword."
The Third Kazekage caught the mockery in Kawaki's words and naturally wouldn't swallow his anger.
"Humph~"
Kawaki's face instantly darkened. This guy's words really hit where it hurt.
Sage Art, Nine Heavens Divine Thunder[b]Sage Art, Nine Heavens Divine Thunder[/b].
This was an advanced version of the Palm Thunder that Kawaki had researched. Naturally, he borrowed the name from Taoist jutsu.
Originally, he wanted to use the name Falling Thunder Jutsu[b]Falling Thunder Jutsu[/b], but he thought it lacked style and didn't match his handsome appearance.
Suddenly, several arm - thick lightning bolts fell from the sky, covering the area where the Third Kazekage was.
His whole body was covered with iron sand, just like a human lightning rod.
"I'll electrocute you to death today."
Kawaki thought it wasn't enough. With a wave of his right hand, a bolt of thunder shot out from his palm and attacked the Third Kazekage again.
"You just won't stop, will you?"
The Third Kazekage looked terrified but refused to admit defeat with his words.
He didn't have time to think. Just having recovered from the paralysis, he didn't dare to take the hit head - on.
Sand Transformation Jutsu[b]Sand Transformation Jutsu[/b].
At the critical moment, the Third Kazekage shed his iron - sand armor and merged into the yellow sand.
It was only in the desert that he could use this move to dodge. Otherwise, he might not have escaped.
"So he has this trick up his sleeve."
Kawaki watched as the falling thunder scorched the yellow sand black. The Third Kazekage slowly reappeared in the same place.
Although he managed to dodge most of the power, he was still injured again.
Magnet Release was the natural enemy of weapons, but it seemed that Lightning Release was also the natural enemy of his iron sand.
His robe was even more tattered, and his face was a blotchy mess of black and yellow.
He no longer had the demeanor of the Kage of a village.
"Kawaki Hatake, you're going too far."
The Third Kazekage roared, ignoring his injuries.
A large amount of iron sand gathered in mid - air.
Magnet Release, Iron Sand Shuriken[b]Magnet Release, Iron Sand Shuriken[/b].
Dense Fūma Shurikens[b]Fūma Shurikens[/b] took shape in the air, spinning and creating gusts of wind.
With a wave of his hand towards Kawaki, a large - scale shuriken attack headed towards him.
"Too slow, still too slow."
Kawaki showed disdain. No matter how powerful the attack was, it was useless if it couldn't hit.
His body - flashing speed was enough to dodge the shuriken attack. Just as Kawaki was about to use Lightning Release[b]Lightning Release[/b] against the Third Kazekage again,
He found that the Third Kazekage had changed his strategy. He condensed wings and flew towards Shukaku[b]Shukaku[/b].
"How dare you."
Kawaki shouted. The Flying Raijin was faster than the Third Kazekage. He appeared directly beside Tsunade.
At this time, Tsunade was in close combat with Shukaku[b]Shukaku[/b]. Every punch and kick with bright red Chakra[b]Chakra[/b] sent the sand on Shukaku[b]Shukaku[/b]'s body flying everywhere.
Thunderbolt Fist[b]Thunderbolt Fist[/b].
Kawaki's appearance surprised Shukaku[b]Shukaku[/b]. This punch sent him flying. The force was even stronger than that of Tsunade[b]Tsunade[/b] with three Buffs[b]Buffs[/b].
"Why are you here?"
Tsunade was a bit confused and didn't notice the Third Kazekage's movement.
"Watch out."
Kawaki grabbed Tsunade[b]Tsunade[/b]'s arm and dodged a huge iron - sand cylinder.
The Third Kazekage also stood beside Shukaku[b]Shukaku[/b].
"Master Bunpuku, please."
Hearing this, Shukaku glanced at the Third Kazekage standing on his shoulder and nodded.
"I don't want to fight side by side with this guy at all."
Shukaku grumbled inside Bunpuku's body, dissatisfied with the Third Kazekage. In his opinion, none of the Kazekage were good people.
If it weren't for the Second Kazekage, he wouldn't have been captured and sealed.
"This isn't the time to be fussy."
Bunpuku tried to calm Shukaku down, and gradually, Shukaku composed himself. After all, Bunpuku still held the reins.
On the battlefield, it was a 2V2 situation, with the four opponents sizing each other up.
"You'll regret this decision."
Kawaki formed the hand seals for Sage Art: Torii Seal[b]Sage Art: Torii Seal[/b], a powerful jutsu designed to deal with Tailed Beasts. The current situation was more favorable to him.
Once Shukaku was sealed, the Third Kazekage wouldn't stand a chance against the combined attacks of him and Tsunade.
"Let's fight and see."
The Third Kazekage had no other choice but to harness Shukaku's power to unleash more powerful jutsu.
"Go!"
Kawaki and Tsunade charged forward. One left a trail of thunder, and the other a streak of crimson like a flowing silk.
In the blink of an eye, they were in front of Shukaku and the Third Kazekage.
Wind Release: Sand Bullet Volley[b]Wind Release: Sand Bullet Volley[/b]
Shukaku opened his huge mouth. With the help of the Third Kazekage, he enhanced the power and range of the iron sand bullets using Wind Release[b]Wind Release[/b].
He spat out a powerful gust of wind carrying countless black iron sand, which collided head - on with Kawaki and Tsunade.
"Dodge!"
Kawaki had been on the receiving end of this before and knew how dangerous it was.
This time, the area covered by the iron sand was larger, and they were propelled by Wind Release, moving at an incredibly high speed.
Tsunade flapped her wings, but she wasn't as fast as Kawaki's Flying Raijin[b]Flying Raijin[/b]. She was hit directly by the iron sand.
"Tsunade!"
Kawaki dodged the iron sand but couldn't save Tsunade in time. Of course, this minor injury wasn't a big deal for Tsunade.
However, the Third Kazekage's real goal was to embed the iron sand into the opponent's body to restrain their movement.
The Great Burial Seal of the Desert Layer[b]The Great Burial Seal of the Desert Layer[/b]
The Third Kazekage used his chakra to control the iron sand and restrict Tsunade's movement. Shukaku plunged his hands into the sand.
His arms merged with the sand and spread towards Tsunade. The tentacle - like sand with black spell - words wrapped around Tsunade.
A three - story pyramid formed instantly. As the black spell - words connected end - to - end on the pyramid, Tsunade was directly sealed.
In the original plot, this technique was used by Gaara in combination with Shukaku to seal Madara Uchiha in his Impure World Reincarnation state.
Tsunade didn't have the Susanoo and had no means to resist.
If this continued, she would be crushed into a pulp inside the pyramid.
Sage Art: Torii Seal[b]Sage Art: Torii Seal[/b]
Kawaki was extremely anxious when he saw this. He wished he could take the blow for Tsunade.
He never expected that the Third Kazekage and Shukaku could unleash such a powerful sealing technique.
Now that Shukaku was trying to seal Tsunade, his movement was restricted.
He could only watch helplessly as the red torii gates descended from the sky.
Magnet Release: Iron Sand Cuboid[b]Magnet Release: Iron Sand Cuboid[/b]
The Third Kazekage still tried to help Shukaku block the red torii gates.
The huge cuboid formed by the iron sand only managed to knock one red torii gate away before losing its momentum.
Except for his tail, Shukaku was pinned to the ground and couldn't move.
His chakra began to be sealed, and the spell - words on the pyramid started to fade.
Seeing that he couldn't maintain the seal any longer, the Third Kazekage decided to attack the pyramid.
He attempted to eliminate Tsunade within the seal.
Magnet Release, Multiple Iron Sand Body Gyros[b]Magnet Release, Multiple Iron Sand Body Gyros[/b].
The Third Kazekage consumed a large amount of Chakra and condensed more than a dozen upright - rotating iron sand body gyros in mid - air, which flew straight towards the pyramid.
Sage Art, Nine Heavens Divine Thunder[b]Sage Art, Nine Heavens Divine Thunder[/b].
Since Kawaki couldn't use the Flying Raijin to reach Tsunade's side, he had to find an alternative way.
As long as the seal was broken, Tsunade would definitely be able to dodge the Third Kazekage's attack.
It was a race against time and speed between the two of them.
At this moment, Shukaku, sealed by the Torii Seal, became an unlucky victim (a person or thing that suffers unjustly). It was obvious that it had no room to resist.
"Roar~"
The lightning bolts crashing down from the sky made Shukaku let out ear - splitting screams, and black smoke rose from its body.
If it hadn't fully transformed into its tailed - beast form, Bunpuku might have lost his life in this strike.
Shukaku's arms began to retract, and the pyramid slowly collapsed.
The Third Kazekage's attack had reached the top of the pyramid.
