Chapter 319: Nii Yugito

"Sage Art: Storm Release: Demon Dragon Storm!!"

Accompanied by a shout from Yu in midair, a thunderous dragon roar followed immediately.

Everyone could only see a gigantic purple thunder dragon burst directly from the massive thunderclouds vortex in front of Yu, roaring and raging in the air, striking down with lightning speed like thunderbolts from the sky!

"His Storm Release... this kind of power... how is it possible?!"

Watching the enormous purple thunder dragon over the skies of Hidden Cloud, which almost covered the entire sky above their head, Darui, who also possessed the Storm Release Kekkei Genkai, couldn't believe his eyes seeing Yu unleash such a powerful Storm Release Ninjutsu.

"This power... is too much!!"

"You'll die if you stay here, Darui!!" 

Roaring and looming in the sky, the purple thunder dragon had yet to descend, but its terrifying presence had already shaken all the Hidden Cloud Ninjas present. Seeing Darui standing there dumbfounded, oblivious, C beside him desperately pulled him away.

Boom!!

In the next second, it seemed as if the entire Hidden Cloud Ninja village was facing doomsday, as everyone's vision was engulfed by an endless glare.

Even the Fourth Raikage and Killer B, who rushed over, were not spared. A violent explosion directly blasted everyone present away. Yu, utilizing Senjutsu Chakra, unleashed the purple thunder dragon, which annihilated in an instant Darui's released Storm Release laser as if it were mere debris.

The exaggerated commotion could be felt even hundreds of miles away. The terrifying power instantly turned nearly half of the Hidden Cloud Ninja village before everyone's eyes into rubble. Countless Hidden Cloud Ninjas turned into flying ash without even a scream amidst the merciless purple lightning.

"This... this is..."

The blinding glare and scattered dust settled, allowing the surviving Hidden Cloud Ninjas to finally see the scene before them clearly. A bottomless crater with a diameter exceeding a hundred meters lay in the center of the Hidden Cloud Ninja village, occasionally emitting faint arcs of purple electricity.

Under Yu's Storm Release attack powered by Senjutsu Chakra, over a hundred Hidden Cloud Ninjas had been completely obliterated moments ago, not even leaving behind intact corpses.

"Monster..."

"This guy is simply a monster..."

C, who had just managed to rescue Darui, muttered incredulously.

Although they had already estimated Scarlet Yu's approximate strength from the legends, they couldn't have imagined that a sixteen-year-old ninja could unleash Ninjutsu with such devastating effects.

"He actually... killed so many ninjas?!"

"You damn kid... I'm going to tear you to shreds!!"

Just as Yu landed gracefully from midair after killing a hundred Hidden Cloud Ninjas, his feet had barely touched the ground when his Observation Haki sensed the fierce gusts and roars approaching from both sides. 

Lightning Straight!!

Seeing Yu not only destroy the Hidden Cloud Ninja village in one go but also kill so many of his own underlings, the enraged Fourth Raikage's volatile lightning surged to its peak. His fists were capable of smashing steel bars into pulp!

Headbutt!!

On the other side, Killer B, transformed into his tailed beast state, showed no mercy. He unleashed his eighth sword, surrounded by the immense chakra of the Eight-Tails, and swiftly delivered a devastating headbutt that shattered Uchiha Sasuke's chest, almost ending his life.

"In my current state..."

"If we're talking Taijutsu, the two of you together aren't necessarily my match!!"

Although the combined strength of the Fourth Raikage and the transformed Killer B, the A and B combo, would be unmatched in the entire ninja world, facing the simultaneous assault from both sides in the Must Kill ambush, Yu, strengthened and enhanced by Sage Mode and Second Stage Armament Haki, remained unfazed.

Whoosh!!

As soon as the words fell, Yu, who was about to be struck by the Fourth Raikage and the transformed Killer B, disappeared in an instant from his original position. His speed was so fast that no one present could react in time.

"Stop boasting here, kid!!"

Although inwardly astonished by Yu's displayed speed, the hot-tempered Fourth Raikage, upon hearing Yu's calm tone, immediately exerted his lightning-fast speed to chase after him.

On the other side, Killer B in his transformed state also refused to be outdone, emitting a bright red light as he sprinted after Yu.

Watching the Fourth Raikage and Killer B each burst forth with intense chakra, approaching with astonishing momentum, Yu showed no fear. His Senjutsu Chakra surged wildly through his body as he met them head-on!

Boom! Crash! Boom!!

This was a clash of Taijutsu against Taijutsu, a battle of physical prowess. Aside from Might Guy with the Eight Inner Gates, these three may be among the strongest Taijutsu users in the entire ninja world colliding together.

Only the terrifying sound of collision after collision could be heard, and the sight of the ground cracking intermittently around them. The gazes of the surrounding group of Hidden Cloud Ninjas had long lost track of the three figures, unable to intervene in such a high-level battle.

"No wonder they were once the formidable A and B combination that shook the entire ninja world..."

"After these years of training, it seems they've become even stronger than before..."

As Yu swiftly clashed and collided with the Fourth Raikage and the transformed Killer B, his thoughts raced like a black beam darting around.

"Damn, what has this kid been eating to grow like this..."

"To think he can still hold his own against the combined strength of me and B..."

However, as the three continued their Taijutsu clashes and skirmishes, the Fourth Raikage, A, increasingly felt alarmed. He realized that even with him and the transformed Killer B teaming up against Yu in Taijutsu, they were being pushed on the defensive.

Struggling to deflect Yu's incoming side kick, Killer B felt like he was in a dream.

Empowered by both Sage Mode and Second Stage Armament Haki, Yu's Taijutsu was not only fierce and ruthless but also incredibly precise. Attack after attack tore through the air, leaving even Killer B, with his monstrous Eight-Tails Jinchuriki physique, struggling to keep up.

"Foot Shaving String!!"

Amidst the swift Taijutsu exchange between the three, Yu seized a fleeting opportunity and unleashed a powerful whip-like kick, sending out eight strands of Entanglement Armament Haki lines.

Unexpectedly, in this high-speed Taijutsu battle, Yu could still utilize other abilities. Caught off guard, the transformed Killer B, who stood in his way, was blasted away like a cannonball.

Boom!!

Crashing through several chunks of rubble along the way in the ruins, the injured Killer B, now provoked, flew into a rage and directly entered a semi-complete transformation of his tailed beast form, with eight deep red tails soaring behind him.

Although barely maintaining a humanoid form, accompanied by the evident surge of Tailed Beast Chakra, bones resembling those of a Tailed Beast gradually sprouted from his body. Horns sprouted from his head, transforming him almost entirely into a small-scale Tailed Beast lying on the ground.

"Raikage-sama!!"

At the same time, a clear voice rang out. From the crowd outside the ruins emerged a young woman, appearing to be in her early twenties, with fair skin and a pale golden braid draped down behind her head. Her demeanor was proud and aloof.

"Yugito Nii, the Two-Tails Jinchuriki of Hidden Cloud..."

Using Observation Haki to sense the slender female ninja approaching from the side, Yu immediately recognized her identity. "With Killer B in his transformed Eight-Tails state, it seems almost all the key players are here."

The situation seemed increasingly unfavorable for him, but it only served to heighten his spirited determination.

Earth Door!!

Amid the shocked gazes of the Fourth Raikage and all the Hidden Cloud Ninjas around, the ground beneath Yu's feet suddenly transformed without warning into a circular door that swung open. With a burst of blue Chakra threads from his hand, Yu directly pulled out four mysterious puppets cloaked in black from another dimension!
