RNP Chapter 192 Gamabunta Appears
Chapter 192 Gamabunta Appears
Purple lightning flashed across the earth, the ground collapsed into ruins, and a huge whale made of lightning leaped high from the ground.
The immense chakra that made up the whale caused a change in the heavens and earth, with winds rising and clouds surging, and the sky quickly darkening, as if a torrential rain was about to fall.
Rumble!
The thunderous sound reverberated throughout the heavens and earth, as if it were exploding right next to their ears. Many people frowned, and some even covered their ears and unconsciously opened their mouths.
This ninjutsu move had such a large range that it affected a rock where Kyosuke was hiding.
The rock shattered, forcing Kyosuke to jump out. He then saw Kazuma, Hagoromo, and their son turn their heads, their three pairs of eyes fixed on him.
Lightning Release: Whale Fall!
Heikichi raised his right hand and pressed it down sharply in Kyosuke's direction.
The Thunder Whale leaped into the air, gently swayed its tail fin, twisted its body, and charged down toward Kyosuke.
At the same time, a heavy rain began to fall, with large and dense raindrops that pattered loudly on the body, creating considerable pressure.
Kyosuke remained calm and immediately used a summoning technique.
"Boss Toad, we're counting on you!"
The enemy's attacks are too strong to dodge or withstand, so the only option is to let the summoned beasts take the hits.
"You little brat, you're always getting into trouble!"
Gamabunta appeared, saw the thunder whale in the sky, felt its immense power, and snorted unhappily.
Not long ago, Gamaken was summoned by Kyosuke's spirit and returned to Mount Myōboku covered in wounds. Although they were all superficial injuries, they still made Bunta very angry.
Of course, Bunta is still very responsible. Even if he is unhappy, he is not perfunctory in battle.
"Don't be so arrogant with your mere Lightning Release technique!!"
Bunta spat out the pipe from his mouth, his stomach rapidly swelled to an exaggerated size, and then quickly deflated. At the same time, Bunta tilted his head back, opened his mouth wide, and spat out a large glob of sticky, murky liquid.
The liquid cloud, as large as a carriage, hit the Thunder Whale's head and covered half of its body, but it did not stop the whale, which continued to descend rapidly.
"Another powerful summoning beast! Just how much chakra does this guy have?!"
Kazuma looked at Bunta, who was as big as a mountain, and his expression was rather unpleasant.
"However, since it's a toad-type summoning beast, it should be skilled in Water Release, and Water Release ninjutsu is completely useless against this level of Lightning Release. As long as this summoning beast is injured and leaves, I'll launch a fierce attack with the two of them and kill Uesugi Kyosuke in the shortest possible time!"
At this moment, Wen Tai gripped the several-meter-long short sword tightly with both hands, blade facing upwards, and plunged it into the ground. Then, he suddenly exerted force with his legs, leaping high into the air and creating a gust of wind.
"Toad Dagger Slash!"
Bunta and the whale collided instantly. Bunta raised his hands and slashed the whale's forehead with his sword.
Forehead, body, tail.
The sharp blade cut through the thunder whale in two, and Bunta passed right through the split body of the whale.
Upon seeing this, Heikichi raised his right index finger: "Lightning Release: Lightning Blast!"
The lightning whale, now cleaved in two, exploded violently, its blinding blue-white light illuminating the entire sky, and streaks of lightning striking Gamabunta.
Bunta landed steadily on the ground, shook himself off, and puddles of murky liquid and rainwater fell onto the ground.
"What?! They're alright?!"
Kazuma was incredulous to see that Bunta had only very minor injuries.
The lightning attack just now was Heikichi's strongest ninjutsu, which directly consumed most of Heikichi's chakra.
I tested this move with Ma back then, and it can easily destroy a sturdy castle built of rock.
No matter how strong this toad is, it is still just a body of flesh and blood, and it is impossible for it to withstand such an attack so easily.
"Could it be that Kyosuke's summoned beast has strong resistance to lightning?"
Not only Kazuma, but Asuma and the others also found it incredible.
It was Shisui, with his Sharingan activated, who was the first to notice the problem.
Shisui stared at the liquid that had fallen onto Bunta's body and noticed that it floated on the rainwater without mixing with it. He immediately realized what was going on.
"So that's how it is. The captain's summoning beast didn't use water jutsu, but some kind of oil. Because the oil ball hit the Thunder Whale's forehead, when the summoning beast attacked the Thunder Whale, its body first collided with its own oil ball before being hit by the lightning. And the oil coating its body formed an insulating layer that blocked the damage from the lightning."
Asuma was taken aback by Shisui's words.
"This summoned beast has just appeared and is about to be attacked by lightning. It has very little time to think. How did it come up with this method?"
Shisui explained, "This was originally Jiraiya's summoning beast. It has followed Jiraiya through countless battles and has a wealth of experience. It should have fought against powerful lightning ninjas, so it can skillfully deal with powerful lightning."
Asma said, "That's right, that makes sense."
No one dared to approach Mimo, who stood alone in the rain, watching Gamabunta, who had cleaved the giant lightning whale in two with a single move, and became lost in thought.
"Originally, I thought that one's own strength was the most important thing, and that summoning beasts were ultimately external forces. But now it seems that signing some powerful summoning beasts is not a bad idea. At least they can be used to block attacks. In the future, I should pay more attention to information about powerful ninja beasts."
At this moment, Kyosuke saw that his opponent was too strong and that he could no longer hide, so he decided to fight to his heart's content.
"Boss Wentai, I'll leave those two to you. I'll go take care of the enemy!"
Kyosuke gave a brief instruction, then created over a dozen shadow clones to attack Kazuma.
"Hmph! Kid, you'd better watch yourself! Water Release: Gunfire Ball!"
Bunta swung his sword horizontally, slashing a crack in the ground and forcing back Heikichi, who was preparing to support Kazuma. At the same time, he spat out a powerful water ball into the air, which also blocked the flying Kiri.
"Damn it, we've been held up!"
Kazuma's attempt to manipulate Hagoromo and his son to return to their aid failed, and he cursed under his breath, leaving him to face Kyosuke and his shadow clones' attack alone.
After the battle began, Kazuma loosened his control over Hagoromo and his son. With their strong willpower, they began to gradually regain control of their bodies and were the first to regain control of their mouths.
"This should be a toad from Mount Myōboku. When our clan was defeated by the Senju clan, we also searched for Mount Myōboku, hoping to use the powerful summoning beasts there to restore our strength, but we failed in the end. I never thought that after being dead for nearly a hundred years, I would see it again."
Heikichi held a high position in the family and had read many family records, knowing the long history of Mount Myōboku. Now, seeing Gamabunta's powerful fighting strength, he felt a mix of emotions.
Guili, on the other hand, took it in stride, attacking Bunta while encouraging him: "Come on, big toad! Once our bodies are broken, we can't be resurrected again. Hmm, it'd be best to beat up that old man first. He always beat me up when we were kids, and now I want to see him get beaten up."
"You bastard, I didn't beat you enough when you were a kid!"
When Pingji scolded people, his voice was full of vigor and authority.
Bunta, glaring at the two bickering fellows, roared, "Stop arguing!"
