Chapter 560: Battle

Because Anna was worried about Eddie's situation, she also drove to the Life Foundation. She knew that Eddie had said he was going to bring down Drake, so he must have come here.

…

At this moment, the rocket launch had entered the countdown, with four minutes remaining, and the entire launch base was filled with notification sounds.

"Start reading the orbit spacecraft configuration file."

Just as Riot was running towards Lifepod 2, suddenly members of Team 8 appeared in front of him. Hinata Hyuga, Kiba Inuzuka, and Shino Aburame surrounded Riot from three directions, while Kurenai Yuhi positioned herself nearby.

Riot looked at the three people in front of him and pointed a finger at Hinata Hyuga, who was standing in front of him, saying, "I haven't come looking for you yet, but it seems you've come to me."

"Now that you're here, you can all die for me!"

Hinata Hyuga, who had experienced the Chunin Exams, had undergone significant changes in her mindset. She activated her Byakugan and chose to strike first.

"Soft Fist Double Strike!"

Hinata Hyuga moved like a shadow and rushed directly to Riot, delivering a strike with chakra-infused soft fists aimed at his abdomen.

After two consecutive strikes, there were two muffled sounds as Hinata Hyuga's attacks hit Riot's body. The two strikes caused significant damage to Drake's internal organs, but they were instantly healed under Riot's protection.

After taking two strikes, Riot became quite interested in the young girl in front of him. The mysterious force he had just felt seemed intriguing.

Riot's arm turned into a scythe, and he swung it directly at Hinata Hyuga, creating a strong gust of wind.

"Boom!"

A substitute was shattered into pieces, and Hinata Hyuga jumped onto Riot's head.

"Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!"

Hinata Hyuga jumped into the air and began to spin rapidly, forming chakra threads from her palms into a chakra sphere, trapping Riot below.

The chakra sphere attacked Riot's body, causing him to shrink slightly, seemingly revealing Drake inside.

With a shout from Hinata Hyuga, a double palm strike descended from above, aiming at Riot's head.

"Boom!"

An explosion-like muffled sound was heard as Riot's arm transformed into a shield, blocking Hinata Hyuga's final blow.

However, the ground beneath couldn't withstand the powerful impact and was smashed into a large pit, causing Riot to fall down.

Just when everyone thought Riot was going to fall into the sea, Kiba intercepted with another attack.

"Fang Over Fang!"

Akamaru transformed into a copy of Kiba and the two of them began to spin rapidly, forming two tornadoes that crashed into Riot's body.

The tornadoes hit Riot's body, destroying all the steel bridges along the way, and Riot was pinned to the damaged edge of the steel bridge.

Eddie, carrying the camera, looking at the scene in front of him, exclaimed, "Wow, these kids are surprisingly powerful."

Venom nodded, "Their strength is somewhat beyond my expectations, but these attacks alone cannot kill Riot."

Having taken two major hits in a row, Riot grinned and said, "I'm even more interested in your bodies now."

With a push of his hands, Riot soared into the air, one arm transforming into a meteor hammer and the other into a sharp scythe.

"Boom!"

Riot swung the meteor hammer at Kiba Inuzuka, who managed to dodge it.

The meteor hammer smashed into the bridge, creating a large hole. Riot's elongated arm contracted and he followed up with the scythe towards Kiba.

Seeing the incoming scythe, Kiba immediately used his Body Flicker Technique.

The wooden clone left in place was directly split in half by the scythe, which annoyed Riot.

"Here we go again."

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Kiba, having evaded the attack, pulled out three kunai with explosive tags attached and threw them at Riot.

Seeing the flying kunai, Riot smirked inwardly, thinking, "Throwing projectiles at me?"

Riot's tentacles flew out and grabbed the incoming kunai, ready to throw them back.

"Explosion!"

With a hand seal from Kiba, the explosive tags attached to the kunai detonated instantly.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The three exploding tags were like three small-scale Fire Release techniques, instantly destroying the tentacles Riot had extended.

The shockwave from the explosions sent Riot flying backwards, rolling on the bridge.

As Riot came to a stop, his arms turned into two sword blades, which he thrust downwards towards the bridge. Countless blades rose from below, heading towards Kiba and Hinata.

Kiba and Hinata retreated, but the blades rose faster, forcing them to dodge at a faster pace.

Just when Kiba thought he had successfully evaded, a tentacle suddenly extended from behind him, about to make contact with his body.

Riot smirked, "Your body belongs to me now."

At this moment, an indifferent voice sounded from the side, "Secret Technique: Bug Wall!"

It was Shino Aburame. The bugs he had controlled formed a wall behind Kiba, blocking the tentacle's attack.

The tentacle collided with the Bug Wall, and the bugs began devouring it immediately. In the blink of an eye, the tentacle was completely consumed.

Seeing the insects spreading along the tentacle, Riot gave up on that tentacle and exclaimed in surprise, "What is this?"

Shino Aburame stood on the railing, took out his hands from his coat pockets, and waved them towards Riot's direction.

Countless insects flew towards Riot.

Seeing these insects, Riot's expression turned ugly. The next moment, numerous spikes grew out of his back, and he bent over, shooting out the spikes like darts.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Countless spikes shot out from Riot's back, densely packed and heading towards the bugs. In an instant, a large number of insects were killed.

The densely packed insects were decimated by more than half in an instant.
