Upon seeing Kai appear on the battlefield, Mitarashi Shishio felt a surge of joy. He hadn't seen his nephew in years and missed him dearly. However, the battlefield was no place for a reunion.
"Hmm, I'll leave the Fourth Raikage to you. Be careful," Shishio said without any unnecessary words, immediately moving to support other parts of the battlefield. The Konoha ninja forces were showing signs of defeat, and there were too many areas in need of reinforcement.
Besides, Shishio was well aware of Kai's strength, which had surpassed the Kage level, so he had full confidence in him.
"The Fourth Raikage, huh? Long time no see," Kai said calmly as he faced the Fourth Raikage.
It was as if the Fourth Raikage before him was just an insignificant figure.
In terms of their power, this was indeed the case. The current Fourth Raikage was far from being as powerful as the Third Raikage during the Third Shinobi World War. Moreover, Kai had grown exponentially stronger since that time.
"Mitarashi Kai!" the Fourth Raikage growled through clenched teeth, his voice a low rumble filled with fury, as if he wanted to devour Kai whole. Seeing Kai standing before him, the hot-tempered Fourth Raikage could no longer hold back.
He charged at Kai like a bolt of lightning. If space-time ninjutsu were not considered, the Fourth Raikage's speed was among the top in the ninja world.
Liger Bomb!
An ultimate taijutsu technique from the Hidden Cloud Village! Its destructive power was comparable to an S-rank jutsu. By infusing his body with lightning chakra, he could enhance his physical capabilities by hundreds of times!
The Fourth Raikage's right leg was enveloped in blue lightning as he delivered a powerful kick towards Kai, causing the air to crackle. Just as he was about to hit Kai, Kai suddenly vanished.
"Damn it! Where is he?" the Fourth Raikage was taken aback.
In the next moment, Kai appeared directly above the Fourth Raikage!
With a simple yet devastating kick, utilizing his perfect Sage Body and the physical prowess honed through the Hatake clan's secret Lightning Body Technique, Kai sent the Fourth Raikage crashing into the ground.
A cloud of smoke rose, followed by a dull thud. As the dust settled, the Fourth Raikage, his body crackling with lightning, emerged in front of Kai!
"Oh, the Lightning Release Chakra Mode? Didn't the death of the Third Raikage teach you anything? Very well, this time I'll defeat you head-on!" Kai said calmly as the Fourth Raikage charged at him.
Hearing Kai's dismissive words, a flicker of rage crossed the Fourth Raikage's eyes.
With his incredible speed, the Fourth Raikage was in front of Kai in an instant, his arms clamping down on Kai's arms like iron pincers. A glint of satisfaction appeared in his eyes. "Haha, arrogant brat, now that I've got your arms pinned, let's see how you'll form any hand signs. Die!"
Lightning Release: Lariat! the Fourth Raikage roared, leaping into the air and slamming Kai into the ground!
The Lightning Release: Lariat involved lifting the enemy high and smashing them into the ground, enhanced by a lightning explosion. Its destructive power was astounding. So far, no one had survived this move from the Fourth Raikage!
"Is he dead?" the Fourth Raikage panted as he looked towards Kai's direction. He was confident in the power of the Lightning Release: Lariat. Although Kai was strong, the Fourth Raikage didn't believe he could survive such an attack.
"Impressive power, I must admit I'm a bit surprised!" As the smoke cleared, Kai stood there unharmed, in front of the Fourth Raikage.
"Impossible!" The Fourth Raikage's eyes widened in disbelief. Not only was Kai not dead, but he didn't even have a scratch on him.
Kai had been prepared to withstand the Fourth Raikage's taijutsu.
The moment the Fourth Raikage pinned him, Kai had already enveloped himself in a repulsive force field. Unless it was a powerful taijutsu like the God Vacuum Fist, nothing could penetrate this force field.
Clearly, although the Fourth Raikage's Lightning Release: Lariat was formidable, it was far from the level of the God Vacuum Fist.
"Damn it!" The Fourth Raikage was both shocked and fearful. Blue lightning surged around his right leg as he launched another Liger Bomb at Kai.
"Same move again? But I don't have time to play with you anymore..." Kai said, slightly frowning.
He had a mission issued by the system, and if the Konoha ninjas were all killed, even if he defeated the allied forces of Cloud and Stone, the system might not recognize his efforts. To be safe, Kai decided it was best to finish this quickly.
"So... just stay quiet." Kai's right eye's yellow Rinnegan shrank sharply, and the Fourth Raikage, who was charging at him, suddenly froze in mid-air.
Rinnegan: Attractive and Repulsive Force: Universal Prison!
This technique was developed by Kai, inspired by Uchiha Madara's Limbo: Border Jail.
It involved applying repulsive force from the front and attractive force from the back, thereby trapping the target in the air between two opposing forces. Unlike Limbo: Border Jail, the Rinnegan couldn't send its user into the Limbo Dimension to create shadows for attack.
What is happening! The Fourth Raikage's eyes were filled with horror, but in his immobilized state, he couldn't speak.
Kai approached the Fourth Raikage without any concern about him breaking free. As long as someone was trapped in the Universal Prison, unless they used space-time ninjutsu to escape the area influenced by the attractive and repulsive forces, there was no way to break free.
Clearly, the Fourth Raikage didn't know any space-time ninjutsu, so Kai had nothing to worry about.
Standing beside the Fourth Raikage, a Rasenshuriken suddenly formed in Kai's right hand.
Raising his right hand, he placed the Rasenshuriken against the Fourth Raikage's chest and said, "Whether you survive or not depends on your luck."
With that, he pressed the Rasenshuriken into the Fourth Raikage's chest, simultaneously releasing the Universal Prison's hold.
The Rasenshuriken exploded on the Fourth Raikage's chest, sending him flying dozens of meters away, his chest a bloody mess as he fell into unconsciousness.
"Raikage-sama!" Several nearby Cloud ninjas cried out in shock and rushed over.
