Chapter 115: Han's Rescue

ōnoki's Dust Release[b]Dust Release[/b] hit the rock monster accurately.

The rock monster vanished into thin air within the semi-transparent Barrier[b]Barrier[/b]. Naturally, Kawaki Hatake's sword was not spared either.

In an instant, only a small amount of rock residue untouched by the Dust Release[b]Dust Release[/b] fell to the ground.

Kawaki Hatake's Nine Heavens Divine Thunder[b]Nine Heavens Divine Thunder[/b] also descended from the sky. ōnoki had just finished using his Dust Release[b]Dust Release[/b] and had no time to dodge.

His face paled as he watched the lightning as thick as an arm about to strike his head.

He only had time to cover his body with a thick layer of rock, enveloping himself tightly.

He then used the Weighted Rock Jutsu[b]Weighted Rock Jutsu[/b] again and rapidly fell towards the ground, even faster than before.

Unfortunately, no matter how fast he was, he couldn't outpace the lightning. He was struck by the lightning before reaching halfway.

"Ah~"

A scream echoed. It was impossible to tell his expression with the rock covering his face, but Kawaki Hatake thought it would be quite a spectacle.

"Old geezer, let me see you fly again."

"Thunderbolt Fist[b]Thunderbolt Fist[/b]."

Kawaki Hatake pushed off with his feet, scorching the yellow sand on the ground and disappearing from his original position in an instant.

Return my sword to me!!!

This punch landed squarely on ōnoki's body.

The charred rock on ōnoki's body struck by the lightning shattered immediately.

He was sent flying, with lightning still crackling on his body.

After landing, he rolled several times before his figure emerged, his clothes in tatters and his face completely charred.

"Cough~"

He opened his mouth and spat out a stream of blood.

ōnoki knelt on the ground on one knee. Kawaki Hatake's lightning - attribute Chakra[b]lightning - attribute Chakra[/b] was surging within him, and for a moment, he couldn't even get to his feet.

Don't be deceived by his short stature. His Earth Release[b]Earth Release[/b] boasted truly impressive defensive capabilities.

He still hadn't died even after all this.

"You can really take a beating."

Seeing that ōnoki was still alive, Kawaki Hatake dashed over and closed in on him.

Even if he couldn't kill this old geezer, he could at least disable him.

"Third Tsuchikage."

Seeing ōnoki's sorry state, Han was instantly in a daze and extremely anxious.

He never imagined that even the Third Tsuchikage[b]Third Tsuchikage[/b] couldn't defeat Kawaki Hatake[b]Kawaki Hatake[/b].

The Intelligence[b]Intelligence[/b] only stated that his swordsmanship[b]swordsmanship[/b] was extremely strong. Who would have guessed that his Lightning Release[b]Lightning Release[/b] was also this powerful?

Han, who had already transformed into a half-Tailed Beast[b]Tailed Beast[/b], didn't have time to concern himself with Tsunade's presence. He opened his mouth and fired a huge Tailed Beast Ball[b]Tailed Beast Ball[/b] at Kawaki Hatake.

He was trying to save ōnoki's life.

"Humph~"

"You still have the time to care about others."

Tsunade snorted coldly. Naturally, she wasn't worried that the Tailed Beast Ball[b]Tailed Beast Ball[/b] would pose much of a threat to Kawaki Hatake.

The battle between the two had been evenly matched previously. Now that Han was trying to save ōnoki, he exposed a huge vulnerability.

Blessed by the Seven-Tailed Beast[b]Seven-Tailed Beast[/b], more powerful Tailed Beast Chakra[b]Tailed Beast Chakra[/b] coursed through Tsunade's body, and the crimson light around her blazed intensely.

She flapped her wings, leaving only a crimson afterimage[b]afterimage[/b] behind. In an instant, she materialized behind Han.

"Fatal Kick[b]Fatal Kick[/b]."

Ever since Tsunade kicked Shukaku, she seemed to have fallen in love with this way of attacking. She mercilessly kicked Han in the lower body.

"Aowu~"

Han, who had just launched the Tailed Beast Ball[b]Tailed Beast Ball[/b], let out a scream.

Just as his old wounds had healed, new wounds appear.

Han and Kokuō were sent soaring into the sky like a rocket.

"Are all you Konoha[b]Konoha[/b] Ninja[b]Ninja[/b] such underhanded fighters?"

"You're a woman. Aren't you ashamed of such behavior?"

Kokuō endured the pain and cursed wildly inside Han's body.

It's only been a few days, and my anus has suffered two heavy blows.

I really don't like this. Staying with Han, I always end up with unspeakable injuries.

At this time, Kawaki also saw the incoming Tailed Beast Ball.

He had to temporarily give up this perfect opportunity to kill Ōnoki.

He had no weapon in hand, and behind him was the area where the two sides' ninjas were engaged in battle.

It wouldn't be difficult for him to dodge, but what about the Konoha Ninjas behind him?

Kawaki made a decision in an instant. Even if I'm empty - handed, what can the Tailed Beast Ball do to me?

He quickly turned around. His feet lightly tapped on the ground as if putting little effort into it.

"Boom!!"

The land within dozens of meters centered on the point where his toes touched trembled violently.

A shocking pit instantly appeared in front of Ōnoki. He staggered and fell into it.

He got a mouthful of sand and looked as pathetic as could be.

The air - wave generated by his high - speed movement kicked up flying sand and dust.

Kawaki's figure flickered. With lightning - like speed, he charged straight at the Tailed Beast Ball head - on.

The ninjas from both sides behind him panicked and scurried away from their original positions. God knows if he can block this Tailed Beast Ball.

Even the Konoha Ninjas didn't dare to take the risk. They hadn't witnessed Kawaki chop a Tailed Beast Ball with his strength.

Naturally, they didn't have the blind confidence in Kawaki that Tsunade had.

Sage Art, Lightning Strike Fist[b]Sage Art, Lightning Strike Fist[/b].

Kawaki concentrated a large amount of Chakra in his right hand. He made a fist, and his figure looked so small in front of the Tailed Beast Ball.

"Are you crazy?"

"You'll get killed."

Katsuyu Sage screamed on his shoulder. She had never seen anyone use their fist to receive a Tailed Beast Ball.

"Trust me."

Kawaki's words were full of strong confidence. Even if his defense wasn't as good as the Third Raikage's.

But he didn't think he was inferior in terms of attack power.

"I won't die, but don't play with your own life."

"If you get blown to..."

Before Katsuyu Sage could finish her words, Kawaki's fist had hit the Tailed Beast Ball.

The powerful force and the wild lightning - attribute Chakra clashed with the Tailed Beast Ball.

"Boom～"

A deafening roar echoed. The air - wave from the explosion center enveloped the area in sand and dust.

The less - powerful ninjas staggered and could barely keep their balance.

For a moment, no one could make out anyone in their line of sight.

After a moment, the dust dispersed, and Kawaki's figure appeared in everyone's sight.

The ninjas from both sides didn't continue to fight desperately at this time. They looked at Kawaki with disbelief in their eyes.

That man stood there, unharmed.

"Hurry up, hurry up."

"Tsunade is watching me."

With his back to everyone, Kawaki whispered to Katsuyu Sage on his shoulder.

"Where's the courage you showed when you were being a hero just now?"

Katsuyu Sage was taunting him with her words, but she was still getting things done.

She poured the Chakra in her body into Kawaki's body without hesitation.

The power was indeed sufficient to smash the Tailed Beast Ball with one punch.

It's a pity that his defense is still a bit weak. If Kawaki turned around.

Everyone would see the wounds on his chest and his tattered clothes.

Even his smooth and silky hair was in complete disarray.

"Lord Kawaki is invincible!"

Some Konoha ninja was flattering (Lord Kawaki). Then, with a loud shout, the ninja rushed towards the Iwagakure ninjas on the other side.

Once the crisis of the Tailed Beast Ball was resolved, the chaotic battle between the Konoha and Iwagakure ninjas resumed.

Before long, Kawaki recovered. All the wounds in front of him had healed. The healing ability in Sage Mode was indeed formidable.

However, after expending a large amount of Sage Chakra, he could no longer maintain Sage Mode and returned to his normal state.

Fortunately, Ōnoki fell into the large pit. Otherwise, being so close to the explosion point, his old back might not have been able to bear it.

Now that he had regained his normal mobility, Ōnoki immediately left the pit and didn't fly into the air again.

He was scared after being struck by lightning and was quite afraid in his heart.

Tsunade didn't pay any attention to the situation here. By this time, she had caught up with Han who was about to land from the air.

This is the perfect chance to kick someone when they're down.
