Whoosh whoosh
Naruto and Sasuke confront the Third Raikage.
Crack crack
A crack his neck and knuckles.
Yoshaa
Naruto withdraws a shuriken from his holster and throws it towards A.
"Shadow Shuriken Jutsu"
He makes some hand signs and the shurikens replicate and attacks A.
ng ng ng
The shuriken hits A''s body and falls on the ground, inflicting no damage.
Naruto''s expression turns grim.
"Sasuke! Be careful! This dude''s body is quite tough."
"I know!"
Sasuke draws the Kusanagi de and infuses some chakra in it.
Shoom
The de glows with white light.
"Nii-san told me that this de can easily cut through armor. How well will it fare against this guy?"
Whoosh
He flickers behind A and shes at his legs.
''His lightning cloaks stimte his nerves and muscles to react at phenomenal speed, but the excessive lightning chakra might paralyze his body. So, he uses his heels as a lightning rod to discharge the excess chakra into the ground. This makes the area around his ankles the weakest in terms of protection.''
Sasuke swings the Kusanagi de and aims it for A''s ankles.
ng
A deflects Sasuke''s attack with his fingers.
"Nice try, kid! But if you can figure out the weakness of my cloak; then so can I. That''s why I took extra precautions to remove any weakness."
Ah
Sasuke jumps back and rubs his wrist.
''Even the Kusanagi de is unable to prate his lightning cloak. Just how strong is his defense?''
He turns to Naruto.
"Naruto! Use your wind style to counteract his lightning style. His lightning cloak is too thick for me to prate with my de. Make an opening for me so that I couldnd a fatal blow on his body."
"Alright!"
Naruto pumps his fist and gathers arge amount of chakra in his hand.
Swirl
He rapidlypresses the chakra into a small ball and adds wind chakra to it.
"Wind Release: Rasengan sh"
Fwoosh
He fires thepressed chakra as a focused beam towards the Raikage.
BOOM
Thepressed chakra ms into Raikage''s body and spins rapidly.
Snap snap
It grinds away the lightning cloak around his guts and punches a hole through his body armor.
Crack crack
The armor around Raikage''s body snaps and separates from his body, revealing a pair of scars around his chest and guts.
"Now is the chance!"
Whoosh
Sasuke quickly flickers in front of A. He infuses Kusanagi de with chakra and stabs A.
"Toote!" A shake his head.
Swoosh
He twists his body in mid-air and dodges Sasuke''s attack.
"Damn! This old man is so slippery." Narutoins.
Whoosh
A retreat and confronts Naruto and Sasuke.
Swoosh
The lightning cloak around his naval area restores itself.
"Forget about dealing with me, unless you can strip away my lightning cloak in a single strike or you have a strike powerful enough to ignore my defense! My movements are still slow, so use this time to finish me, or else unlike me, you will die for real!" A warns them.
"Damnit!" Naruto clicks his tongue.
"This guy has a cockroach-like shell! Sasuke, how long will it take?"
"Just a little!" Purple lightning flickers around Sasuke and covers the entire area in a radius of 10 meters around him.
"Alright! It''s time to show you the fruits of my hard work."
Naruto stretches his right palm and grabs his wrist with his right hand.
Swoosh Swoosh
Large amounts of wind chakra blow around Naruto. It rapidly spins around him and forms an eye.
Shiing Shiing
Numerous wind des flicker around him and form a barrier of wind. The wind chakra rapidlypresses into a ball with fourrge wind points around.
Shoom
The wind points spin rapidly and form four wind des.
Swirl
Narutopresses the entire wind storm around him into the chakra sphere.
"This is"
Sasuke''s eyes widen in shock. He gapes at Naruto''s jutsu and remarks.
"What a powerful Wind Technique?! I am surprised he created a jutsu of this scale and managed to hide it from me without showing off?!"
"If it''s this jutsu, then it might work!" A nod his head and the Rasenshuriken.
"Wind Release: Rasenshuriken"
Naruto dashes towards A with the Rasenshuriken in his hands.
HAAH
He aims and throws the jutsu towards A.
Whoosh
A twists his body in mid-air and dodges the jutsu.
"Release!"
Naruto crosses his arms.
BOOM
He detonates the central sphere of the chakra, producing a vortex of wind at the point of impact. The vortex engulfs A.
Swish swish sh
Countless microscopic wind des skewer through A''s body like a pin-cushion.
Crack crack
The lightning cloak around his body disperses immediately as the des continue to pierce through him.
BOOM Rumble
The ground trembles from the might of the explosion of the jutsu, raising a cloud of dust and debris.
"That is"
Kakashi and the rest of the group turn to Naruto''s and Sasuke''s battle.
"What kind of jutsu is this?"
The expression of Shikamaru and the rest freezes at this.
"Damn! They both are something." Shikamaru shakes his head.
"I can''t fall behind!" Kiba makes some hand signs.
"Wolf Fang Over Fang"
He and Akamaru quickly mow through the group of edo shinobis.
"What a powerful jutsu? The number of attacks even I couldn''t count them all with my Sharingan. What an incredible technique?!"
Sasuke has a shocked expression on his face.
Rumble Rumble
The ground trembles for a while as the aftershock of the jutsu pushes everything away.
Swoosh swoosh
The smoke and dust clear up to reveal A lifelessly lying down in a crater.
"Did I get him?" Naruto warily stares at A.
Shoom
A open''s his eyes and jumps up.
tter tter
Dust and ashes rise from the ground and slowly repair his body.
"Your technique is an incredible kid! If my body was alive when I was hit with your technique; then I am pretty sure even with my invincible defense, I would have died right then and there?"
Crack crack
The Edo body recoverspletely.
"Too bad! With this body, I can simply ignore the damage of your jutsu!"
A riles up his chakra and curls up his finger.
"I am going to end it!"
Whoosh Stab
Sasuke appears behind A and stabs a purple lightning de through A''s lightning cloak.
"How?!"
Crackle crackle
Purple lightning flickers around Sasuke''s body. It forms a ring on the ground as multiple shes of lightning consecutively strike A''s body, preventing him from regenerating.
"Lightning Release: Chidori Raiden''s Judgement"
Bzzt Crackle
The intense lightning chakra scorches the ground and forms multiple rings of lightning around A and Indra.
"This is"
Naruto stares at Sasuke''s jutsu with shock.
''Sasuke''s jutsu is not only channeling the lightning chakra through the enemy''s body and nullifying his lightning cloak, but it''s also actively paralyzing every nerve cell of the opponent, rendering them unable to make any movement. Not only that, the initial thrust was even able to pierce through the almost unbreachable lightning cloak. What an amazing jutsu!"
"Oye Naruto! Stop daydreaming and seal him using one of your sealing fuinjutsu! I can''t hold this guy for too long." Sasuke warns him.
"Yes! Yes!"
Naruto scratches his head and takes out a sealing scroll from his storage. He makes some hand signs and ms his palm on the scroll.
Swoosh
The scroll wraps around A''s body and slowly seals him away.
Phew
Sasuke cancels his jutsu and stands beside Naruto.
''Perhaps the future generation has already surpassed the previous generation. I wonder how A is doing?!'' A silently stares at Sasuke''s and Naruto''s back as his soul returns to the pure world.
He looks down and stares at the scar near his naval region.
''Back then, that kid took me by surprise and pierced my invincible shield with his de. Now, his disciples''
On the other side of the battle,
Kakashi and Guy dust their hands as they destroy all of Shamon''s puppets.
"Now all that''s left is to seal him!"
Swoosh
Kakashi takes out a sealing formation from his storage.
''Izuna designed this seal. So, there is no doubt about its ability!"
He throws the sealing talisman at Shamon.
Whoosh
The talisman expands and wraps around Shamon''s body.
Crack crack
Numerous cracks appear on Shamon''s body as his soul returns to the pure world.
"I will help you with the rest!"
Naruto appears beside Shikamaru and the group and seals all the immobilized enemies.
Whoosh
The military squad and the vige chief arrive at the battlefront.
The rest of the Edo''s crumble apart, leaving a few dead bodies behind.
"These these"
One of the vige elder points towards the bodies with trembling hands.
"My son! NO!"
He hugs the corpse of a young man in his twenties.
Crumble
The body of the young man crumbles into dust.
"NO! MY SON! Don''t leave me alone!"
The vige elder''s eyes turn red as his body twitches unnaturally.
"It''s their fault! It''s the fault of those Tonika Vige. I will kill them!"
He screams in frenzy and dashes towards the vige.
"Stop him!"
Kakashi signals them.
