Upon hearing Barragan's words, Nawaki's face darkened in the distance. However, he did not lose his cool or become angered by the words.
As a ninja, it is essential to maintain a rational mind during battle, as this is the only way to seize victory at crucial moments.
Nawaki hid in a corner, his eyes narrowing slightly as he gently formed a hand seal with his palms.
"Mokuton: Jubaku Eisō!" (Wood Style: Tree Bind Eternal Burial)
As his voice fell, the ground suddenly began to tremble violently. Barragan, standing proudly on the field, looked slightly puzzled and instinctively glanced at the ground.
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"
At that moment, numerous massive tree roots burst out of the ground from the sand and soil!
These twisted tree roots attacked Barragan, standing still, like the claws of a demon!
Despite this, Barragan remained unperturbed. As the former ruler of Hueco Mundo, there were few things left that could surprise him.
He snorted coldly, and the black mist swirling around him suddenly spun, rushing toward the menacing roots as if it had a mind of its own.
The next moment, a shocking scene unfolded before everyone's eyes.
The roots, which had been as ferocious as enraged beasts, had no resistance against the black mist and were pierced through.
A small, pitch-black hole appeared on each twisted root.
Not only that, but the roots pierced by the black mist stopped moving, as if frozen in time.
Then, a subtle transformation occurred at the pierced points, as if the roots were being decomposed by some unknown force.
Starting from the holes, the roots gradually disintegrated into dust and dissipated into the air.
The members of Las Noches present watched this scene in disbelief.
On the field, Nawaki's face was tense, and he looked at the scene with some disbelief.
In the distance, the numerous massive roots around Barragan had all turned to dust and dissipated into the air, creating a spectacular sight.
Barragan, with a slight sneer on his lips, stood amidst the swirling dust, his cloudy eyes narrowed as he looked in the direction where Nawaki was hiding. His domineering aura was palpable even from afar.
A pile of dense rocks suddenly moved, and Nawaki's figure slowly emerged from them.
With a determined look, he stared at Barragan in the distance, meeting his gaze and speaking in a deep voice.
"It seems your ability can decay everything around you."
Hearing Nawaki's words, a smile appeared on Barragan's lips as he arrogantly replied.
"Human brat, to discern my power in such a short time is commendable, but it's meaningless."
He continued, narrowing his eyes with a sneer.
"My power of aging can decay anything it touches. Even if you know this, what can you do? No one can resist this god-like power!"
"However, I will give you a chance to show your strength. Let me experience this so-called power of ninjutsu!"
Nawaki remained calm despite Barragan's arrogant words. He simply nodded slightly, his face serious as he spoke in a deep voice.
"While you are strong, claiming no one can resist your power is overly arrogant."
Nawaki stepped forward heavily, his body slightly crouched, and clasped his hands together, his eyes sharp.
"I will use the strongest power I can muster right now, with the sole purpose of proving my ability in front of him!"
With these words, Nawaki clasped his hands together tightly, and a thick surge of chakra erupted from his body!
It appeared almost tangible, clinging to Nawaki's shoulders!
In the distance, Barragan looked slightly surprised, then a gleam flashed in his eyes as he thought.
"So this is the power of this world... Not bad. Though it may be slightly inferior to spiritual energy, it is not a problem."
Outside the battlefield, the members of Las Noches watched in amazement.
It was the first time they had seen Nawaki unleash his full chakra!
Whether it was Yahiko, Nagato, or the members of Kakuzu's team, they were all taken aback by the terrifying amount of chakra Nawaki could release.
Only Saki and Aizen seemed unfazed.
Aizen stood quietly, his eyes slightly narrowed as he watched Nawaki, who was now brimming with dense chakra like a small-tailed beast. A slight smile appeared on his lips as he thought.
"As expected of a successor of the Senju clan. With the power of the Hogyoku, Nawaki, who has awakened and inherited the extraordinary talent of the First Hokage, is destined to surpass his predecessors."
On the field, Nawaki's long brown hair fluttered in the intense chakra, revealing his bright forehead and handsome, angular face.
If any of the older generation of Konoha shinobi were present, they would not believe their eyes.
Nawaki at this moment looked almost exactly like a young Hashirama Senju, with every contour of his face nearly identical, except for the different hairstyle.
A large vein bulged on Nawaki's forehead as he shouted in a low voice.
"Take this! Mokuton Hijutsu: Jukai Kōtan!"
As Nawaki's voice fell, the ground suddenly shook violently. Everyone present looked shocked, unable to believe that the jutsu Nawaki cast would reach them.
Sensing something, Barragan's previous contempt vanished. He glanced at the ground below and spoke in a deep voice.
"Interesting..."
As he spoke, the ground cracked open. Amidst the flying dust and stones, terrifying, towering trees shot up from the deep ground!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The ground erupted with deafening roars, like the roars of ancient beasts!
As the lush, vast forest appeared before the members of Las Noches, they were all stunned.
Aizen's lips curved slightly, and a glint of amusement flashed in his eyes as he murmured softly.
"To be able to release a Jukai Kōtan of this scale... Nawaki, how far are you from the First Hokage?"
