Chapter 431: Despairing Power

Dust and smoke spread, completely engulfing the figures of the Four Kage.

The tremendous force generated by the wooden giant's palm strike left all the allied shinobi in shock.

It seemed the fate of the Four Kage would not be a good one.

As the smoke slowly dissipated, the scene that emerged was...

Gaara's sand had formed a defensive barrier, protecting the other three Kage within it.

However, he himself... was...

"Lord Gaara..."

The shinobi of the Sand Village widened their eyes at the sight, their eyes instantly filling with bloodshot veins.

Their Kazekage was now covered in blood, his breathing faint and weak.

It seemed as though he might vanish at any moment.

"Lord Kazekage..."

A large number of Sand shinobi rushed forward to aid Gaara.

Seeing this, Kakashi's heart tightened.

With just a single strike, the Kazekage Gaara had been taken down!

What about the other Kage...?

"Blocked? Not bad, but what about the next attack!"

Sasuke's voice rang out again as the wooden giant launched another attack.

A straight punch slammed down toward the three Kage below.

In that instant, the Raikage, carrying the immobilized and unconscious Gaara, leaped away.

The Mizukage, Mei Terumī, was slightly slower, clearly unable to dodge in time.

At that moment, the Third Tsuchikage stepped in.

He positioned himself in front of Mei, facing the wooden giant's fist with both hands.

"Stop right there!"

Earth Release: Ultra Light-Weight Rock Technique!

The Third Tsuchikage, having reinforced himself with a layer of earth-release chakra, attempted to block the wooden giant's fist.

In an instant, the impact force struck him, causing the Third Tsuchikage to feel a surge of blood and energy in his chest.

A mouthful of blood sprayed out.

Sasuke sneered.

To think that such a level of power could block the wooden giant's attack was nothing but a dream.

"Ah!"

The Third Tsuchikage was forced back, sliding across the ground as the punch sent him flying over ten meters.

The immense impact force was far beyond what his earth-release chakra defense and Ultra Light-Weight Rock Technique could withstand.

Boom!!

The wooden giant's fist slowly came to a halt, retracting its arm.

What remained was the bloodied figure of the Third Tsuchikage, who collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Already aged and frail, he had now reached his absolute limit.

With the fall of the Third Tsuchikage, the shinobi of the Stone Village were equally agitated.

This was their Third Tsuchikage, the only shinobi in the world who had mastered the Dust Release Kekkei Tōta.

Yet, he too had been taken down in a single punch.

That massive wooden giant, despite its enormous size, moved with a speed and agility that was almost unbelievable.

And its destructive power was simply terrifying.

The first strike had taken down the Kazekage Gaara, who had sacrificed himself to protect the other three Kage.

The second strike had eliminated the Third Tsuchikage, who had shielded the Mizukage.

Now, only the Raikage and... the Mizukage remained!

"Uchiha Sasuke... I will never forgive you!"

A flash of lightning, the sound of breaking wind.

Sasuke stood atop the wooden giant's head, not even bothering to shift his gaze.

In the next moment, a blue flash appeared directly behind Sasuke.

The Fourth Raikage seemed to be attempting a sneak attack.

But Sasuke didn't care. The chakra snakes behind him instantly bit into the Fourth Raikage's shoulders.

Simultaneously, one after another, the chakra snakes tightly coiled around the Fourth Raikage, immobilizing him completely.

Slowly, he was moved in front of Sasuke, suspended in mid-air.

Sasuke looked at the immobilized Fourth Raikage.

He shook his head lightly.

"Too weak!"

By now, the shinobi of the Allied Forces, especially those from the Cloud Village, could no longer hold back. They rushed forward, shouting in rage.

They demanded that Sasuke release their Raikage, or else they would make him pay.

At the same time, a barrage of ninjutsu hurtled toward Sasuke.

The air was filled with a colorful array of techniques Water Release, Fire Release, Earth Release, Lightning Release, Wind Release!

Almost every type was present.

After all, these shinobi were not a trained, coordinated unit. Even within the same village, each shinobi had their own specialties, and in their haste, their attacks varied greatly.

Sasuke smiled.

The wooden dragon coiled around the wooden giant suddenly twisted its body, its tail flicking with agility.

With a single swipe of the dragon's tail, all the incoming ninjutsu attacks were obliterated.

The resulting gust of wind even suppressed the shinobi on the ground.

And in the moment the shinobi were suppressed...

Crack!

A sharp impact sound rang out.

Sasuke's fist had already struck the Fourth Raikage squarely in the abdomen.

The force of the punch caused the Fourth Raikage to lose consciousness instantly.

He was sent flying, cutting through the air with tremendous force before crashing violently into the ground.

A massive crater was formed...

Dust and debris filled the air as the shinobi of the Cloud Village struggled to comprehend what had just happened.

Sasuke lightly clapped his hands.

"One left..."

He turned his gaze toward the Mizukage, Mei Terumī, who was gasping for breath, her face filled with terror.

She had completely forgotten about fighting.

Sasuke's overwhelming power had utterly terrified her.

How could anyone be so strong?

And Sasuke's Wood Release... He could use Wood Release, just like the legendary God of Shinobi, Hashirama Senju.

This guy!

Had he also undergone Wood Release experiments and successfully integrated that power into himself?

Facing the Mizukage, who had lost all will to fight...

A woman.

Sasuke didn't plan to use any more powerful attacks.

With a simple wave of his hand, vines erupted from the ground, instantly entangling Mei.

The vines absorbed her chakra, and with her already depleted reserves, Mei quickly ran out of energy.

The constricting force of the vines caused her to lose oxygen, and she fell unconscious.

The Four Kage had been completely defeated!

At this moment...

The Stone Village's elite shinobi, Kurotsuchi, was filled with rage.

Her father had been reduced to such a state by this enemy. It was unforgivable.

"Bastard!"

With a roar, Kurotsuchi formed hand seals and unleashed an earth-release ninjutsu.

"Earth Release: Earth Core..."

The ground began to rumble and shake violently, as if trying to control the earth itself to bury Sasuke and the wooden giant underground.

However, Sasuke frowned slightly.

He coldly stared in Kurotsuchi's direction.

Raising his hand, he pointed lightly toward her.

"Seeking death!"

Black lightning surged from Sasuke's fingertip.

In the next moment, a bolt of black lightning descended from the sky, striking Kurotsuchi directly.

Crack!

The dazzling lightning caused Kurotsuchi to lose consciousness instantly.

Sasuke shook his head in disappointment.

"With this level of strength, you dare to attack me?"

"Sasuke!"

Suddenly, a voice called out. Sasuke paused for a moment, then slowly turned his head.

Out of nowhere, Kakashi had leaped into the air, charging straight toward Sasuke!

In his hand was the Lightning Cutter, his Sharingan firmly locked onto Sasuke.

"Stop this! You weren't like this before!"

Seeing Kakashi suddenly appear, Sasuke smiled.

As if he knew him so well...

Kakashi's body closed in on Sasuke at high speed, the Lightning Cutter in his hand bursting with intense lightning.

But to Sasuke, all of this was utterly insignificant.

With a raise of his hand...

In an instant...

Kakashi found himself unable to move.

Chakra snakes coiled around his body, pulling him swiftly toward Sasuke.

"Kakashi-sensei... your movements... are too slow!"
