“Damn brat, I’m going to kill you!”
At this moment, the Long-haired Strong Man finally understood why Kinkaku was so angry back then.
When encountering such an opponent, it would be strange not to be angry.
He had always had the advantage, but somehow various problems would arise in the end.
He could now clearly feel that the Chakra in his body was starting to become uncontrollable, and he had to end the battle as soon as possible.
“Hell Stab: One-Finger Nukite!”
The Long-haired Strong Man concentrated Chakra on three fingers, intending to kill the young man in front of him directly with powerful piercing force.
This was the strongest attack he could use in his current state.
As long as it hit successfully, the battle would end.
“Koharu!”
Facing the Strong Man’s attack, Renye shouted again.
Utatane Koharu immediately understood, enduring the pain to complete the hand seals: “Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld!”
This was a tactic they had discussed long ago: one person would use Ninjutsu for support, giving the others time to attack.
The ground beneath the Long-haired Strong Man’s feet suddenly softened, turning into a viscous mud swamp.
Although the Strong Man immediately unleashed Chakra to try and leap out, his body gradually losing control of Chakra made him a half-step slower, and the lightning condensed on his three fingers dissipated.
“Damn it, why now?!”
He looked at his legs sinking into the mud swamp and couldn’t help but curse.
Renye seized this fleeting opportunity, taking in the expression on his face, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.
It seemed the medicine had taken full effect.
Immediately after, he gripped the Basho Fan and swung it fiercely, the flames spewing from the fan face were countless times hotter than before, condensing into three ferocious fire dragons in the air, pouncing on the trapped Strong Man from different angles.
Danzo Shimura, seeing this, quickly used Wind Release to assist, and the Wind Release met the fire dragons.
With the wind fueling the fire, the three fire dragons instantly expanded into a fiery storm covering half the battlefield, completely engulfing the Strong Man.
“Did it succeed?” Utatane Koharu looked expectant.
Renye, however, did not relax his guard, staring intently at the center of the flames. Suddenly, his pupils constricted, and he quickly warned the two.
“Retreat quickly!”
The flames were torn apart from within by a violent force, and the Long-haired Strong Man rushed out, emitting smoke, his Lei Kai (Lightning Armor) tattered, revealing his charred body underneath.
His eyes were filled with furious flames, and his fighting spirit became even more insane.
Perhaps, he had never even considered the idea of retreating...
“Uchiha brat!” With every word the Strong Man spoke, blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, “I’m going to tear you to shreds!”
The Chakra in the Long-haired Strong Man’s body was in disarray, coupled with the scorching heat of the flames, making every breath he took feel like a burning sensation.
Renye didn’t give him a chance to breathe, his Three-Tomoe Sharingan coldly locked onto him, and the Tachi in his hand gleamed with a cold light.
“Commander, it seems your era is coming to an end,” Renye’s voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable sense of oppression.
In the Strong Man’s current state, he was completely confident he could kill him!
It was better for such a powerful guy to die.
“Arrogant brat!” The Long-haired Strong Man roared, forcibly condensing Chakra, and lightning flashed around his right fist.
But this time, his speed was noticeably much slower.
“Are you still struggling in your death throes?”
Renye’s mouth curved into a slight smile, his figure flashed, using the Body Flicker Technique, he instantly appeared beside the Strong Man, sweeping his Tachi horizontally.
“Clang—!”
The Long-haired Strong Man barely managed to raise his arm to block, but because his Chakra was out of control, the defensive power of the Lei Kai (Lightning Armor) on his arm was greatly reduced, almost breaking through directly.
Seeing this, he dared not resist with his body anymore and quickly distanced himself from Renye.
The blade of the guy in front of him was covered in potent poison; if he was accidentally scratched, it would be over!
Renye did not stop, placing the Basho Fan behind him, his left hand rapidly forming hand seals.
After some time in combat, the Basho Fan was more suitable for long-range combat, while close-range combat was more convenient with hand seals for Ninjutsu.
He could form hand seals with one hand, which allowed for complete surprise.
“Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!”
Blazing fireballs spewed from his mouth like a torrential rain. The Long-haired Strong Man gritted his teeth and dodged, but several fireballs still struck his body, the searing pain twisting his face.
...
In the distance, the Tailed Beast Transformation Kinkaku was frantically suppressing Hiruzen Sarutobi, Uchiha Kagami, and Homura Mitokado, his six tails wildly flailing, forcing the three to retreat steadily.
“Hahaha, Konoha scumbags, today is your doomsday!” Kinkaku laughed wildly, his Nine-Tailed Chakra rampaging furiously.
Indeed, without that damned Uchiha, these guys were nothing but chickens and dogs, completely vulnerable.
He believed it wouldn't be long before he could kill these few, and then go kill that Uchiha to avenge his younger brother!
With the Long-haired Strong Man’s formidable strength, perhaps that brat had already been killed before he even got there?
He subconsciously looked towards the distant battle, wanting to know if Renye had been killed...
“What?!”
Kinkaku’s pupils suddenly constricted, the arrogant expression on his face instantly froze, looking as if he had seen a ghost.
He saw that powerful brute, now charred all over, his Lei Kai (Lightning Armor) shattered, being completely suppressed by that Uchiha brat!
“How is this possible?!” Kinkaku was so shocked he almost lost his voice.
He had fought Renye before and knew that the brat’s strength had increased, but definitely not to the point where he could suppress the Strong Man!
Something unknown must have happened.
Although he didn’t know about the Strong Man’s Chakra being suppressed, he knew that if this continued, he would be defeated again...
“Damn it!” An alarm blared in Kinkaku’s heart.
Although his current state had recovered quite a bit, if he continued to drag this out, once Renye dealt with the Long-haired Strong Man and then teamed up with the people in front of him to besiege him, he would truly be finished here.
He had personally experienced such a scenario three times already and was very experienced.
Now was a good time to run; a little later, there would be no chance!
Kinkaku immediately had the idea of retreating.
Where there’s life, there’s hope.
While things hadn’t reached their worst, it was the perfect time to run!
If not now, when?
Anyway, he had run away more than once or twice, so he no longer had any so-called shame about such things.
At worst, he would win back next time!
Losing once was anger, losing twice was unwillingness, losing thrice was defiance, and losing a fourth time was acceptance.
As long as he was still alive...
“Konoha scumbags, consider yourselves lucky!” Kinkaku gritted his teeth, fiercely flicking his six tails, forcing Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other two back.
Then he leaped forward, rushing towards the Strong Man’s direction.
“Oh no, stop him quickly!” Hiruzen Sarutobi’s expression changed drastically, thinking he was going after Renye.
“Stop fighting, retreat!” Kinkaku roared.
The Long-haired Strong Man heard this, a flicker of unwillingness in his eyes, seemingly reluctant to leave.
“Stop fighting, stop fighting, hurry and retreat with me!”
Seeing that the Strong Man was unwilling to retreat, Kinkaku immediately became anxious.
“If you keep delaying, we’re going to die here today!”
