Chapter 420: The White Light That Devours All

Sheathing his blade, Sasuke turned to look at Tendo Pain Nagato, who now had only one arm and a damaged leg.

The corner of his mouth lifted slightly.

Now, there was no need to worry about Tendo Pain transforming into the Animal Path or the Hell Path Pain.

He wouldn't dare!

The moment he tried, Sasuke could end him in an instant.

At this very moment.

The entire battlefield seemed to freeze, every movement coming to a halt.

One slash!

A slash that stunned the entire battlefield.

Sasuke's Blaze Release: Thunder God, the lightning that spread into the sky, struck straight into the heavens.

But what was even more terrifying was that, in just an instant, everyone saw a black lightning flash sweep across.

In the next moment, all the Jinchūriki were instantly annihilated.

Only one remained.

And even that one was barely clinging to life.

One second ago, they had been overwhelming, seemingly about to suppress and kill Sasuke.

Yet, in the next moment, they were all instantly wiped out.

Five of them were taken out in one go.

The ordinary shinobi now felt completely breathless.

Facing such a monster, even the Jinchūriki were instantly killed. What chance did they, the ordinary shinobi, have?

Kakashi's forehead was drenched in cold sweat.

He stared at Sasuke, who still had traces of lightning lingering on his body.

'What a terrifying slash!'

'That power... it's probably stronger than an S-rank jutsu!'

Ultimate speed this was the pinnacle of speed.

No flashy techniques, just a simple, speed-enhanced slash.

Clean and precise. The tailed beast chakra cloaks seemed utterly useless against this slash.

Was this the current Uchiha Sasuke?

Using just taijutsu!

Though it was ninja taijutsu, it still fell under the category of taijutsu.

When Kakashi first saw Sasuke develop this Thunder Breathing ninja taijutsu, he never imagined it would one day reach this level of power.

Even with just this ninja taijutsu alone, Sasuke's strength was likely unmatched in the entire shinobi world.

Taking out five Jinchūriki in one go.

The last one lost an arm, effectively half-dead!

Even Gai couldn't do this, could he?

One, maybe, but six at once?

No, even Gai couldn't do that.

In terms of pure power, the Eight Gates might be stronger, but in terms of finesse, Sasuke's Thunder Breathing surpassed the Eight Gates!

And this was just taijutsu.

One must remember that Sasuke's true strength lay in his ninjutsu talent and his... Kekkei Genkai.

With all this in mind, Kakashi couldn't even imagine what Sasuke would be like at full power.

A casual strike carried this level of taijutsu power, and his ninjutsu attacks could easily rival S-rank techniques.

Add to that his Kekkei Genkai dojutsu, and who could possibly defeat Sasuke?

And right now, in Kakashi's eyes, Sasuke wasn't even serious.

'Can the Allied Shinobi Forces... really win?'

Kakashi couldn't help but begin to doubt.

Meanwhile, on the eerily silent battlefield, everyone was still reeling from Sasuke's shocking Blaze Release: Thunder God.

The last remaining Tendo Pain, Nagato, slowly spoke.

"That was an unexpected attack!"

"What is this technique called?"

Nagato asked.

Sasuke exhaled lightly. "Thunder Breathing ~ Seventh Form ~ Blaze! Thunder! God!"

Thunder Breathing?

That ninja taijutsu?

The forbidden taijutsu that Jiraiya-sensei once said was on par with the Eight Gates.

Indeed!

It was strong!

When the wings of thunder spread, and the black lightning struck the heavens, it meant that no matter what defenses were in place.

They would be useless against this strike.

What a pity!

I'm still not proficient enough. If I could master the Six Paths transformation and combine it with the tailed beast chakra's power.

I might have been able to block that attack.

But the Shinra Tensei hadn't recovered in time, and five Pains were instantly wiped out.

The remaining Pain was severely injured. If it were an ordinary enemy, I could just switch to the Hell Path to revive the Pains.

But Sasuke is different.

His breathing is still calm, meaning that last strike was far from his limit.

In other words, Sasuke could unleash it again at any moment.

Switching to the other Six Paths powers now would be suicide.

I'll just have to settle this with Tendo Pain's power!

As Nagato thought this, his heart tightened.

At the same time, the half-destroyed Asura Path Pain in the distance slowly opened its eyes.

Tendo Pain's power was gathering.

Sasuke sensed Nagato's chakra fluctuations.

Was he planning to make a final stand?

Or was he going to use Shinra Tensei again?

Just as Sasuke was about to move to finish off Tendo Pain.

Suddenly, Tendo Pain's eyes widened rapidly.

The veins on his face bulged violently.

"Chibaku Tensei!"

In an instant, a small black orb shot up into the clouds.

And the next moment, a powerful gravitational force acted on Sasuke's body.

Was he trying to seal me with Chibaku Tensei?

Sasuke's eyes narrowed slightly. The gravitational force was targeting him, and no matter how he tried to evade, he couldn't escape it.

His body was being pulled toward the sky.

Meanwhile, the gravitational force tore apart the ground, pulling massive chunks of earth toward the sky.

In the distance, several mountain peaks were instantly ripped apart, and enormous boulders flew toward the sky.

This apocalyptic scene threw the entire battlefield into chaos.

The gravitational force was so strong that even Sasuke couldn't break free from Chibaku Tensei, and his body was pulled upward.

Watching Sasuke rise into the air.

Nagato smiled.

'The power of Chibaku Tensei... even you... cannot escape!'

As Sasuke ascended, the shinobi were confused. Was this... a sealing technique?

Was there really such a sealing technique?

"Boring!"

The roaring sound continued, drowning out all other noise on the battlefield.

But at this moment, Sasuke's voice rang out, clearly piercing through the chaos.

Sasuke could have used his Rinnegan to break free from the gravitational force.

But he felt it wasn't necessary. There were many ways to handle this, so he chose the more brutal approach.

'Lightning Release!'

'Endless Thunder Pool!'

Lightning gathered from all directions, forming a terrifying pool of thunder around Sasuke.

But the expanding thunder pool was controlled by Sasuke.

It gathered above the Chibaku Tensei.

'Using the Endless Thunder Pool as a base, combined with the infinite chakra of Blaze Release.'

'Pulling off this technique now is too easy!'

Thunder Welcome!

In an instant, a massive thunder sphere formed.

Its size far exceeded that of the Chibaku Tensei.

Countless stunned eyes looked up at the sky.

With a casual wave of Sasuke's hand.

The sky-obscuring thunder sphere descended, engulfing the Chibaku Tensei below.

The thunderous roar that shook the heavens echoed across the entire shinobi world.

At this moment, the sky was white!

The ground was white!

The blinding white light completely consumed everything.

People were swallowed by the white light...

In the distance, Nagato, controlling Tendo Pain, looked up at the sky and let out a helpless sigh...

'As expected... you are more terrifying than a monster... Uchiha Sasuke!!'
