Chapter 467: Conquering the Fear
Bzzt Boom
A gigantic bolt of red lightning strikes Satori out of nowhere. Smoke rises from Satori''s body and lightning crawls across its skin. The sudden bolt of lightning stuns Satori in its position.
The sudden strike surprises the rest of the shinobis. All of them slowly turn their attention toward the user of that jutsu.
"Ayaka!"
Sasuke exims in surprise as Ayaka''s strikends on Satori''s body. Ayaka quickly makes a few more hand signs.
"Fire Style: Pheonix Flower jutsu,"
Sheunches a volley of explosive fireballs toward Satori.
Swoosh swoosh
Satori recovers from the earlier attack and ps his wings to take flight in the air. It dodges the majority of the fireballs but a few fireballs stillnd on its body and explodes scorching the fur on its body.
"This is a chance!"
Tenten uses this moment tounch a barrage of explosive kunai tags toward Satori. The explosive kunais tags almost bloat the sky, sealing Satori''s escape routes.
"This time for sure!"
Tenten and the rest grit their teeth in anticipation. However, the reality is far more disappointing than their anticipation.
Satori suddenly rotates its body in a tornado and precisely releases a barrage of its explosive feathers to counter the several explosive kunais in mid-air.
Boom Boom Boom
Several explosions ring off in the air, raising a cloud of dust and smoke.
Swish
Satori ps its wings and flies above the smoke cloud. It turns its sharp gaze towards Ayaka.
"Strange, I can''t sense it; I can''t sense your negative emotions."
Ayaka makes a few more hand signs.
"Storm Release: Light Fang,"
Ayaka inhales sharply and infuses arge amount of chakra into her mouth. She opens her mouth and fires a sharp, thin stream of light from her mouth.
Hmm
Satori''s sharp sense alerts him of danger. It swiftly ps its wings and dodges sideways.
Pew
The beam of light travels at an exceedingly fast pace and pierces through one of Satori''s wings. A fist-sized hole appears in Satori''s wings. Dark red blood seeps out of its wings. Satori narrows its eyes.
"Looks like out of everyone present here, this little girl has the greatest chance of defeating me." He remarks and once again ps his wings to dash toward Ayaka.
"Since that''s the case, I will first kill you."
With a sudden burst of speed, Satori appears beside Ayaka.
"We won''t let you!"
Gamabunta and Aoda block his path. Gamabunta swings his giant Dosu de in a diagonal sh.
"Kenjutsu: Frog sh: Third Art,"
Aoda also inhales arge amount of air. His hood expands to arge proportion.
Fwoosh
Aoda releases arge amount of green mist from its mouth. The mist rapidly corrodes the ground and envelopes Satori.
"Your poison is ineffective against me."
Satori opens its giant mouth and inhales the entire green poison mist. Green fumes escape from its nostril.
ng
He blocks Gamabunta''s giant dosu sword with its razor-sharp metallic ws.
Screech
Sparks rise from the sh as Satori swipes its ws across the de and stabs its other hand toward Gamabunta''s torso.
Gamabunta abandons his de without any hesitation and falls back. However, Satori uses this opportunity and opens its giant mouth to fire a giant energy sphere toward Gamabunta''s back.
Bang
The energy sphere explodes on Gamabunta and thetter disappears in a poof of smoke. Satori ignores Aoda and flies towards Ayaka, who is recovering her stamina.
"DIE!"
It opens its mouth and spats out the powerful poison mist from earlier. Ayaka''s countenance turns pale, and she hurriedly takes out an antidote from her storage and consumes it.
A sharp gleam sh past Ayaka''s eye as she counterattacks.
Swish swish swish
"ze Release: Smoldering Purgatory Spear,"
Ayaka infuses arge amount of chakra into her hands to produce pitch-ck mes infused with darkness. She retracts one of her feet backward and raises the hand with the ck me spear parallel to the ground. She assumes a throwing stance and hurls the spear at the iing Satori with full force.
Peng
The spear releases a sonic boom and pushes apart the air in front of it. The next instant, the spear appears in front of Satori.
Whoosh
Satori blocks the attack with his wings.
BOOM
A burst of ck mes engulfs him and slowly burns his fur to ashes. However, Satori also closes the gap and pierces its ws toward Ayaka''s body.
Wham
A green protective barrier shroud Ayaka as she swiftly retreats.
Whoosh
Suddenly,
Satori flips its body sideways and narrowly avoids a gigantic purple chakra sword.
BOOM
A deep ravine forms at the point of impact of the sword.
Swish
Another purple sword aims for Satori''s head from its blind spot.
Fwoosh
Satori''s neck bends at an unnatural angle, and the sword narrowly misses his head. Other than a few strands of Satori''s hair, the giant sword cleaves empty air.
"I am not done yet!" Sasuke roars.
His Susanoo releases a giant arrow from another pair of the hand, wielding a giant bow on his back.
"Amaterasu!"
The arrow zes with ck mes and swiftly arrives in front of Satori.
Stab
It pierces through Satori''s left shoulder and envelops him in ck mes.
Fwoosh
Satori ps his wings and takes off to the sky to gain an advantage. It gazes at the group of shinobis desperatelyunching attacks at him.
Crack
Satori grabs the arrow with his other hand and pulls it out of his shoulder. The arrows shatter into countless energy particles and disperse.
The eyes of one of the demonic faces on the box of Ultimate bliss glow with a sinister hue. A beam of red light enters Sasori''s body and the wounds on his body regenerate rapidly.
"All that for a drop of blood!"
Satori ps its wings and contemptuously stares at the group of shinobis. A helpless expression appears on everyone''s face as they are unable to evennd a hit, much less gain an advantage over the monster.
Whoosh
Suddenly, with a sh of orange, a gust of wind blows in the punishment hall.
Whoosh
A lone figure appears in front of an arrogant Satori.
Bang
The figure clenches his fist and disappears again. The next instant, it appears on top of Satori and punches him.
Bang
The punchnds on Satori''s head and ms him to the ground.
BOOM
A giant crater appears on the ground. Satori is stered on the floor of the punishment ground.
"That''s that''s"
"NARUTO!"
The Konoha 12 exims in surprise as the figure of orange sh be clear. Currently, Naruto''s entire body is cloaked in a golden orange cloak. Wisps of chakra flicker across his body as Naruto turns towards them and smiles.
"Such arge amount of overwhelming chakra!" Neji''s eyes widen in shock as he nces at the Nine-tail chakra cloak.
"Guys help old man Mui and Ryzetsu with the seal. I will take on this monster." Naruto pumps his fist.
"This guy!" Shikamaru shakes his head and instructs others.
"What happened? All of a sudden, this guy can hit him." The group exims in surprise.
"Tranquil heart! I see"
Sasuke and Ayaka also return beside them as Sasuke remarks.
"It''s the Second Transformation of Senjutsu! A form where the user transcends his state of mind and his spirit bes one with nature." He murmurs.
"Sadly, I am still stuck in the first stage!" Sasuke shakes his head.
"Hinata, Sakura, Ino, help Lord Mui with recovery. Neji and Tenten help them with the sealing formation. Choji, Kiba, Shino, and Lee scout the periphery and seal the exit route of all criminals. As for"
He turns towards Sasuke and Ayaka.
"I will help Naruto in his battle."
"I will help with the sealing formation." Ayaka remarks.
Shikamaru nods his head in approval and restrains other criminals with the aid of jounins from other viges.
Whoosh
Naruto flickers and appears in front of Satori. He clenches his fist and focuses most of his chakra on his fists.
"Uzumaki Style: Extinction Fist,"
Satori crosses his arms in front of his chest.
BOOM
Naruto''s punchnds on Satori''s chest and a giant explosion of energy urs at the point of impact. A giant sphere of energy forms at the point of impact. Satori is sent flying as Naruto chases after him with a flurry of fists.
"Uzumaki Barrage,"
Narutounches a barrage of blows as the flies away from the prison. A series of explosions ring in the air as both of themnd on the only mountain on the ind.
Satori and Naruto confront each other and Satori burst out in a grin.
"Tell me" Satori opens his mouth as he utters.
"How does it feel to conquer your emotions, your fear? Tell me about this feeling you are relishing right now." Satori opens his palm and gazes at them.
"No"
"I didn''t let go of my emotions, my fear" Naruto shakes his head.
"I embraced them."
Naruto clenches his fist and instantly reappears in front of Satori andnds a blow on his body.
