"Oh?"
Seeing Ginkaku barely manage to block his blade, Ning Feng immediately drew the Sword of the Thunder God and viciously thrust it toward Ginkaku's chest!
"Hiss—!"
Ginkaku hurriedly retreated in shock, afraid the sword would pierce straight through his heart.
"B-Brother!"
Seeing Kinkaku get sliced apart, Ginkaku let out a sorrowful cry.
An injury like that…
Even with the regenerative abilities granted by part of the Nine-Tails' power, there was no way they could survive it!
Just who was this ninja?!
He had cut Kinkaku down in a single move?!
Ginkaku was about to rush over to inspect his brother's injuries when he suddenly noticed chunks of ash-like matter continuously emerging from Kinkaku's wound, rapidly reconstructing his body.
"This is…"
Ginkaku froze.
Back in their era, the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju had only just invented Impure World Reincarnation, and the technique wasn't widely known yet.
Naturally, Ginkaku knew little about its properties.
But…
He quickly realized something.
After being revived this time…
The two brothers seemingly couldn't truly die!
Ning Feng immediately formed a one-handed seal.
The Explosion Release chakra he had secretly buried beneath his feet earlier suddenly detonated violently!
With a leap upward, Ning Feng shot into the air while the Raikage and the Gold and Silver Brothers below had no time to evade before the hidden Explosion Release chakra latched onto them!
BOOM!!!
A small mushroom cloud erupted skyward!
The Kumogakure shinobi watching from the battlefield's edge all widened their eyes in shock!
Only now did they realize—
Ning Feng hadn't been standing there waiting for the Raikage and the Gold and Silver Brothers to attack at all.
He had secretly planted Explosion Release chakra beneath his feet beforehand!
Then, the moment close combat began, he leapt away and detonated everything below!
At such close range—
Even the Raikage under Lightning Release Chakra Mode couldn't react in time!
"This level of damage… still probably isn't enough."
Ning Feng landed steadily on unaffected ground nearby, calmly staring at the smoke cloud caused by the explosion.
"Shadow Clone Technique!"
"Taiji Rasengan!"
Ning Feng had no intention of engaging in prolonged close combat against shinobi wielding bizarre treasures like the Gold and Silver Brothers.
So he directly created multiple shadow clones and unleashed the immensely destructive S-rank ninjutsu—Taiji Rasengan!
One gigantic Rasengan after another appeared in the hands of Ning Feng's clones before relentlessly crashing into the smoke-filled crater and detonating!
Boom after boom erupted continuously inside the smoke cloud!
Terrifying Wind Release chakra exploded outward violently!
Even the Kumogakure shinobi standing at the edge of the battlefield felt overwhelming pressure!
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
The smoke was continuously blown apart by the raging wind chakra, only for more dust and debris to immediately get swept upward again!
The aftershocks of the violent winds spread endlessly in all directions, sending shattered meteor fragments flying through the air!
Massive trees requiring ten people to encircle were uprooted completely!
If weaker ninja got caught within these wind currents, they would likely be blown straight into the sky!
At the same time—
Ning Feng's enormous chakra reserves were visibly dropping at a rapid rate.
After all, he possessed the chakra of multiple Tailed Beasts alongside the Sage Body.
His chakra reserves had long since reached terrifying levels!
Which only proved how horrifying the power of his techniques truly was!
"That should be enough…"
Feeling that nearly half his chakra had already been consumed, Ning Feng finally stopped attacking.
Dispelling the shadow clones, he casually tossed two sealing techniques toward the crater without even looking.
After bombardment on this scale—
Even the Gold and Silver Brothers wouldn't survive unscathed!
As the smoke gradually cleared, only a bottomless crater remained at the center of the battlefield.
It stretched dozens of meters wide, while traces of Wind Release chakra still lingered faintly around its edges.
"Y-You… bastards!"
An enraged roar faintly echoed upward from deep inside the crater.
Ning Feng lightly shook his head and looked downward.
At the bottom, the Gold and Silver Brothers stood there with their Tailed Beast cloaks nearly obliterated.
Chunks of Impure World ash covered their bodies everywhere.
Clearly, they had been blown apart countless times before regenerating repeatedly.
Meanwhile, beside them—
A, whose body was so mangled it was almost unbearable to look at, was still roaring curses furiously.
"He's still alive?"
Ning Feng clicked his tongue.
He had expected the Gold and Silver Brothers to survive.
But the Raikage enduring such an insane barrage genuinely surprised him.
After all—
He had just unleashed countless Taiji Rasengans.
Their destructive power exceeded ordinary Rasengans by well over a hundredfold.
And it wasn't just one.
Including all the shadow clones, over a hundred Taiji Rasengans had detonated!
Yet the Raikage still survived that?!
What Ning Feng didn't know was that A's Lightning Release Chakra Mode had already shattered beneath the second Taiji Rasengan.
By the third impact, he was already more dead than alive.
Fortunately, Kabuto had immediately controlled the half-transformed Nine-Tails forms of the Gold and Silver Brothers to shield A beneath their bodies, blocking most of the attacks for him.
They even transferred some chakra to him.
That was the only reason the Raikage managed to cling to life this long.
"Chidori Sharp Spear!"
Although he didn't know how the Raikage survived, Ning Feng had no intention of showing mercy now that war had begun.
A wrist-thick beam of Lightning Release energy shot from his raised hand straight toward the barely breathing Raikage inside the crater!
PUCHI!
The lightning beam effortlessly pierced through the Raikage's chest!
"...Yeah, there's no saving him now."
While controlling the Gold and Silver Brothers' regeneration, Kabuto sensed the complete disappearance of A's life force and shook his head toward Madara beside him.
Truthfully, Kabuto never intended to save the Raikage in the first place.
It was Madara who insisted on keeping him alive.
After all, A was still one of the leaders of the Allied Forces.
If he died now, Kumogakure would descend into complete chaos afterward.
That was why Kabuto had tried so hard to shield him from Ning Feng's attacks.
But…
What Kabuto didn't realize was that Ning Feng hadn't even used his full strength yet.
He had merely fought in the least environmentally destructive way possible to avoid damaging the Rain Village borders.
And yet even then—
Two of Kabuto's strongest cards had already been reduced to lying on the ground like dead dogs, waiting to regenerate.
"So the Four Symbols Seal earlier was blocked by the Raikage…"
Ning Feng dispersed the Chidori Sharp Spear.
Without the lightning beam supporting it anymore, the Raikage's corpse rolled over onto the ground.
Revealing two sealing formulas etched across his chest.
Those three had planned things carefully.
The Gold and Silver Brothers feared sealing techniques, so the Raikage blocked them.
Meanwhile, when the Raikage couldn't survive Ning Feng's overwhelming Rasengan bombardment, the endlessly regenerating Gold and Silver Brothers shielded him instead.
"Unfortunately…"
Ning Feng sighed softly.
"It still didn't matter."
Two more sealing formulas shot from his hand!
The seals immediately crawled over the still-regenerating Impure World bodies like swarming ants!
