"Bōkāhā!!"
As time passed, Shino's double-hand expanding movement revealed a dazzlingly bright, blue lightning-charged, large cylindrical object forcefully pulled out from the radiant lightning mass in his palms.
As the cylindrical object fully emerged, it revealed itself as a massive cannon!
"Sizzling..."
Constructed almost entirely of densely packed chakra, the cannon's surface was constantly traversed by dazzling electric arcs, shining brilliantly, seemingly carrying the terrifying power of thunder.
With Shino slowly descending from the air, he stared at Sōsuke with a pair of blood-red eyes, the fiery gaze fixated on him.
His expression became slightly excited, as if the stimulation from the radiant blue lightning had invigorated his entire being.
Suddenly, he shouted, "Captain Aizen, this is the power I obtained from the dojutsu. Since you want to understand the abilities of the Mangekyō Sharingan, savor the taste of this!"
As his words fell, he quickly aimed the gigantic cannon at Sōsuke, located in the forest below.
"Take this! Lightning Release: Raijin Cannon!"
Terrifying electric currents in the sky swiftly surged toward the cannon's barrel.
"Crackling!"
With the increasingly dazzling blue radiance gathering rapidly at the cannon's muzzle.
"Boom!"
The dispersed lightning arcs in the air quickly vanished, as if they instantaneously vaporized the air.
A dazzling, blazing blue thunderball, accompanied by a brilliant electric arc, rapidly bombarded Sōsuke!
Facing the luminous thunderball rapidly approaching from above, Sōsuke's mouth curved into a gentle smile, his gaze assessing it.
However, his palm lightly waved in front of him as he softly uttered, "Bakudō no Hachijūichi. Dankū!"
"Swoosh!"
As his words fell, a massive transparent barrier suddenly appeared in front of him!
The barrier seemed like a gigantic glass that could clearly display scenes on both sides, standing abruptly in mid-air, blocking everything, including the extensive forest behind him!
Almost the moment the transparent barrier appeared, the radiant blue thunderball violently collided with it!
"Crash!"
The intense and dazzling thunder light almost illuminated the entire sky!
Through the transparent barrier, it could be observed that the luminous blue thunderball violently exploded!
Intense yellow flames and dazzling blue electric rays mixed together, converged, and burst!
Rumbling — Rumbling —
"Huff — Huff —"
The terrifying thunderous roar caused by the explosion lingered, followed closely by the hurricane-like winds that nearly toppled the trees in the forest!
"Drip!"
At this moment, Shino slowly descended to the ground, a pair of blood-red eyes intensely gazing at the still-standing transparent barrier in the sky.
His jet-black hair swayed in the fierce wind, his facial expression tense, and his heart deeply shaken!
How could this be...!!
The Raijin Cannon was unable to break through the defensive barrier...!!
In another location, with his disheveled hair lightly swaying, Sōsuke, who saw this result, had a faint smile on his lips.
His gaze glanced at Shino in the distance, paying attention to the enormous black bones attached to his body and the massive cannon in his hands. He thought to himself:
The skeletal structure infused with black lightning seems to have a remarkable defensive effect...
Is the weapon he's wielding launching Chakra attacks with Lightning attributes... Indeed... those eyes have given him another type of Chakra attribute...
However... the power is too scattered...
"Is this all there is? Compared to such a powerful attack, I am more interested in the black bones on your body. What is the name of that technique?"
Sōsuke looked at Shino, a gentle smile on his face as he spoke softly.
Hearing his words, Shino's expression turned slightly cold, and he said in a deep voice:
"This is Buddo Uchimikoto, the ultimate dojutsu granted by the Mangekyō Sharingan!"
Upon hearing this, Sōsuke nodded slightly with a light smile and continued:
"I see... well then... continue..."
"Your previous attack did not let me fully enjoy it. If you have other moves, use them all at once."
Hearing his words, looking at Sōsuke's indifferent smile, Shino's eyes slightly narrowed, pondering deeply.
Since the Raijin Cannon proved ineffective against this guy, I'll have to switch to another form!
Engage in close combat to find a chance!
With Buddo Uchimikoto, I don't need to worry about normal attacks. I just need to fight him freely, find a chance to use that move, and maybe I can succeed!
With this thought, his gaze slightly chilled, and the figure adorned with enormous black bones suddenly disappeared from its original position!
"Swoosh!"
His figure abruptly reappeared in front of Sōsuke. The massive lightning cannon in his hands was raised high and swung fiercely towards Sōsuke. His eyes were slightly cold, and he uttered in a chilly tone.
"So... let me take this attack again!"
Watching Shino aggressively attacking him, Sōsuke simply tilted his body lightly, evading the strike.
A gentle smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he spoke softly.
"This technique is too weak... Give it your all."
Hearing his words, Shino's eyes turned cold. The chakra in his body suddenly surged, crazily emanating outward.
He swiftly turned his body, his icy eyes staring at Sōsuke. Suddenly, he forcefully leaped, lifting high the brilliantly shining lightning in his hands and shouting in a deep voice.
"Raijin Hammer!"
As his words fell, the massive cannon in his hands underwent a sudden transformation midway toward Sōsuke.
The radiant blue lightning cannon instantly transformed into a colossal and heavy thunder hammer!
At this moment, Shino held a huge thunder hammer, almost the same size as himself, and his crimson eyes fiercely smashed it towards Sōsuke!
The gigantic thunder hammer condensed dazzling electric radiance and a scorching brilliance!
"Boom!"
The ground instantly collapsed in waves like ripples, spreading endlessly in all directions!
Rumbling — Rumbling —
Countless ravines continued to expand in all directions!
Roaring — Roaring —
A massive shockwave instantly swept in all directions. Slightly smaller trees were almost broken, bending to their utmost limits!
Shino and Sōsuke, along with the ground they stood on, suddenly sank!
The powerful attack caused the ground to transform into a semi-circular pit with a diameter of dozens of meters. The earth was displaced, and nearby trees were pulverized by the tremendous shockwave!
In the diameter of dozens of meters, within the deep pit, smoke and dust veiled everything, obscuring the view inside!
As the dust gradually settled, a terrifying scene slowly emerged.
In the deep pit, Sōsuke raised one arm, his delicate and fair palm gently oozing blood, yet he paid no attention.
On the slightly dusty white clothing, blood lightly dripped, leaving spots resembling plum blossoms.
However!
He didn't seem to care about the injury on his hand at all. He still wore that gentle and refined smile.
"Not bad strength, Shino."
He stood tall in place, facing the slightly stunned figure in front of him, smiling gently and saying softly.
Shino stood in front of Sōsuke, breathing heavily. His face was filled with disbelief.
This... this... how... how is it possible... how could someone... barehandedly withstand... the Raijin Hammer!
He stared at Sōsuke in front of him in shock, unable to believe his blood-red Mangekyō Sharingan eyes looking at the pale hand that had shed some blood.
His face turned incredibly pale!
On that fair hand, completely disproportionate to it, the huge Raijin Hammer was being held up!
The dazzling electric currents had dissipated, and the massive Raijin Hammer now appeared feeble.
The Raijin Hammer, which he had struck with all his might, had actually been directly caught by Sōsuke with his palm!
At this moment.
Sōsuke smiled as he looked at him, his eyes flickering with a glint of amusement, and he spoke softly.
"Is this... the strongest attack?"
"Well then... it's my turn to see how sturdy these bones on your body really are."
These words, like a gentle breeze, gently resonated on the battlefield.
However, upon hearing these words, Shino felt as if struck by lightning. His face instantly turned incredibly pale.
