Chapter 445: Eight-Armed Ashura VS Golden Wheel Rebirth Explosion
Almost as soon as he realized the danger, within his perception, Naruto's Chakra signature appeared instantly like a ghost, and the position was—right in front of him!
How could he be so fast?
How did he manage to teleport right in front of him?
Before he could think, Toneri only "felt" a palm wrapped in violent water currents pressing hard against his chest.
That water flow wasn't a simple impact; it was rotating and compressing at extreme speeds, as if transforming into a miniature water dragon with its mouth wide open and fangs bared, carrying the dual intent of imprisonment and strangulation!
Vacuum Attack: Water Dragon Prison!
Facing this sudden lethal blow, Toneri was horrified to the extreme.
He hadn't expected the opponent to have such a surprise attack method that ignored distance and perception.
At the critical moment of life and death, Toneri demonstrated the amazing reflexes and decisiveness of an Otsutsuki descendant.
He didn't have time to swing Hamura's blade at all and could only choose a more direct way to respond.
"Silver Wheel Rebirth Explosion!"
Toneri let out a low growl, and the massive Tenseigan Chakra he had forcibly extracted erupted without reservation.
Centering on his body, a terrifying, silver-white Chakra storm was instantly generated, expanding violently outward.
This was one of the Tenseigan's signature abilities, the Silver Wheel Rebirth Explosion.
It could generate a massive tornado with extreme destructive and concussive force, while also being able to erupt around the user for defense, much like Shinra Tensei.
"Boom!"
The silver-white Chakra storm collided violently with Naruto's point-blank Vacuum Attack: Water Dragon Prison.
The distance was too close.
The explosion and impact erupted almost at zero distance between the two.
Under the impact of the Silver Wheel Rebirth Explosion's terrifying storm, Naruto's Water Dragon Prison was instantly shredded and more than half of it evaporated; the remaining water and Chakra were also violently blown away.
The shockwave from the Silver Wheel Rebirth Explosion also slammed solidly into Naruto's body.
"Puff!"
Naruto's figure was sent flying backward as if hit by a giant hammer, suffering significant injuries from the close-range explosion.
The Chakra fluctuations on his body became chaotic.
And Toneri wasn't faring well either.
Although he had activated the Silver Wheel Rebirth Explosion in time to block the lethal point-blank attack, the impact of the explosion was bidirectional.
He was also shaken to the point of his blood and Qi churning, and his green Chakra cloak fluctuated violently.
More troublesome was that forcibly extracting the Tenseigan's power was already a burden on his body; the full-scale eruption of the Silver Wheel Rebirth Explosion now exacerbated this load, making him feel a wave of weakness and sharp pain.
On the open ground between them, a huge crater appeared due to the rampage of the Silver Wheel Rebirth Explosion; the surrounding standing water was completely dried up and evaporated, and more cracks appeared on the palace's outer walls.
Toneri stabilized himself, and the nine Truth-Seeking Balls quickly flew back to his side, re-forming a defensive formation.
He "looked" in the direction Naruto had been blown away, his heart filled with shock and anger, as well as caution and lingering fear.
This intruder's methods were too bizarre!
That way of instantly disappearing and reappearing, ignoring perception for a surprise attack, was simply impossible to guard against.
If he hadn't reacted fast enough just now and decisively activated the Silver Wheel Rebirth Explosion, he might have already been captured by that Water Release Move.
"I actually wasn't killed by the Truth-Seeking Balls?"
Naruto's Clone felt his own body.
Since he was a Wood Clone anyway, he could use Wood Release to repair himself if injured, but the Toneri across from him was truly a body of flesh and blood!
Buddy, you're an Immortal Master trading injuries with a piece of wood?
Naruto no longer hesitated, his hands quickly forming seals as his Chakra erupted at full power.
"Multi Wood Clone Jutsu!"
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!...
Several thick sections of wood suddenly grew from the back of the Wood Clone; these pieces of wood quickly detached from his body, and after landing amidst a haze of white smoke, each one turned into a Wood Clone.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of Naruto's Wood Clones appeared on the battlefield.
The hundreds of Wood Clones were in perfect sync. They simultaneously formed a complex and unified set of seals, linking and gathering their respective Chakra and Wood Release power together!
"Wood Release: Eight-Armed Ashura."
With a synchronized shout, majestic Wood Release Chakra surged from the dozens of Wood Clones like a tsunami, gathering in the open space in front of them.
The earth trembled violently as countless thick giant trees burst from the ground, growing, intertwining, and combining frantically.
In just a few breaths, a wooden giant that reached the heavens and was so massive it was suffocating took shape.
It was a thousand meters tall, looking like a demon god descending upon the world.
Although Toneri couldn't "see" the specific image, his powerful perception clearly "felt" the behemoth that appeared out of thin air—towering like a mountain and radiating terrifying life energy and an aura of destruction! Its sheer volume and the majesty of its Chakra caused even him to feel a pang of heart-palpitations!
He subconsciously "glanced" toward the Hamura Temple and then "felt" the sky-blotting wooden giant before him...
Isn't this difference too ridiculous?!
The opponent could actually use Clones to work together and instantly create a giant wooden figure of such scale.
This was already a level of power beyond what an ordinary Ninja could imagine.
A massive sense of crisis surged into Toneri's heart.
Facing a creation whose size and power had reached the limit, a conventional Silver Wheel Rebirth Explosion would likely find it difficult to cause decisive damage. While the Truth-Seeking Balls could annihilate the parts they touched, their efficiency was too low against such a massive target, and the opponent clearly wouldn't stand still and let him hit them.
"I can't hesitate anymore..."
This thought flashed through Toneri's mind.
He originally wanted to reserve some power or find another way, but the pressure brought by the "Eight-Armed Ashura" before him was too strong. He had to use his strongest method to crush it in one blow; otherwise, once the Tenseigan Chakra in his body was consumed, he would have no chance of victory!
He raised the long blade gifted by his ancestor Hamura high into the air.
The blade trembled slightly, letting out a clear ring as if responding to his death-defying will.
At the same time, the nine Truth-Seeking Balls that had been circling around him instantly broke away from their defensive formation. Like nine black meteors, they rapidly flew to the high sky diagonally above where Toneri's blade pointed and lined up.
Then, the nine Truth-Seeking Balls simultaneously erupted with a golden light so brilliant it seemed capable of piercing through all darkness.
The golden light flowed, gathered, and fused from the nine Truth-Seeking Balls like a liquid, condensing into an incomparably sharp Chakra light sword in Toneri's hand.
The light blade was only a few meters long at first, then instantly shot up to several thousand meters. The destructive aura it radiated caused the entire lunar space to tremble.
This was the known ultimate Profound Truth Dōjutsu of the Tenseigan,
"Golden Wheel Rebirth Explosion!"
Toneri used all his strength to swing down the golden light blade—which condensed all the power of the nine Truth-Seeking Balls and was infused with all the Tenseigan Chakra he could currently mobilize—toward the thousand-meter-tall Eight-Armed Ashura wooden giant in front of him.
The golden light, like divine punishment, carried the absolute will to annihilate all things as it slashed toward that gargantuan wooden body representing life and power.
"Susanoo!"
Susanoo clad the Ashura.
The Eight-Armed Ashura was covered in golden Chakra armor, and the Wood Clones' eyes turned into Ame no Tajikarao Sharingan; this was Naruto's own power.
A golden Chakra greatsword also condensed in the wooden giant's hands, which was then wrapped in cyan Wind Release Chakra.
The two giant swords collided.
The shockwave spread frantically in all directions like a tsunami. Wherever it passed, ruins crumbled, the ground split open, and even the temporary residence far on the other side shook violently.
