"Oh oh, yeah..."
"Hidden Cloud's A and B combination reunite again, Scarlet Yu from Konoha can only be defeated easily, idiot, bastard."
The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer B, with a knife in his mouth, muttered incomprehensibly in his clumsy rap style, which was quite amusing. But thinking about his terrifying strength, there wasn't a single opponent who could laugh about it.
This ninja wore black sunglasses, had dark skin, light yellow hair, and carried seven swords. With the word "iron" tattooed on his right shoulder, he was the rap ninja of Hidden Cloud known as the 'Murder Hornet' Perfect Jinchuriki. Even ordinary Kage-level ninjas would not be his match.
"This guy..."
"Being able to freely manipulate seven swords, he's really not to be underestimated..."
Seeing the peculiar stance suddenly taken by Killer B, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, who had joined the fight against him with the Fourth Raikage beside him, Yu's Observation Haki immediately sensed an inexplicable sense of danger.
Acrobat!!
Immediately after, Yu felt a flash at the corner of his eye. In an instant, Killer B disappeared from his sight. When his eyes caught up again, Killer B had already appeared above him, rapidly spinning with seven swords, their sharp edges scraping towards him.
So fast!!
Just as Yu fully reacted, Killer B had already manipulated the seven swords, rapidly attacking him with a blend of advanced Taijutsu. Each strike came at him like torrent at speeds invisible to the naked eye.
Only when facing the storm-like swordsmanship and Taijutsu of the Eight-Tails Killer B did Yu understand why Uchiha Sasuke, who awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan was completely overwhelmed and nearly killed by him.
His attacks were completely imperceptible to the naked eye. Each sword seemed to move with a life of its own, agilely leaping around Killer B's various parts. The unpredictable attack patterns and terrifying speed of his strikes made Yu almost defenseless. It was only through Yu's Sensing ability with Observation Haki that he managed to evade his attacks through a series of awkward maneuvers.
"Such an amazing Jinchuriki..."
"No wonder he's the strongest under the Nine-Tails..."
Before Yu's eyes, the sword infused with incredibly powerful Lightning Release Chakra attacked like swift wind slicing off a few white strands of hair from Yu's forehead. Though not injured, Yu couldn't help but marvel at Killer B's extraordinary swordsmanship.
Compared to the highly unstable Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Naruto Uzumaki, Killer B was the first Jinchuriki in the history of the ninja world to fully control the tailed beast in its entirety. Even without using the power of the Eight-Tails, he possessed tremendous strength.
"Five-Colored Threads!!"
Facing Killer B's fierce onslaught like a storm, Yu finally ignited his fighting spirit. His Armament Haki-darkened hand transformed into a claw and fiercely clawed forward. Five incredibly sharp black threads tore through the air towards Killer B.
"Such sharp threads... Is this kid's Kekkei Genkai?!"
Seemingly caught off guard that Yu could unleash such a sharp counterattack without hand seals, Killer B's high-speed swordsmanship rhythm faltered slightly. While instinctively blocking the Five-Colored Threads cutting towards him with seven or eight swords infused with Lightning Release Chakra, the powerful impact abruptly sent him flying back.
"Eight-Tails: Bee Stinger!!"
However, as Yu's strike sent him flying, the quick-reacting Killer B suddenly erupted with incredibly strong Chakra from his body. Immediately, he swung both hands violently, and the seven swords instantly transformed into seven streaks of light flying towards Yu.
"Bring it on!!"
After pushing back Killer B with a strike, Yu saw the seven swords, each infused with powerful Lightning Release Chakra, tearing through the air towards him. Covered in Armament Haki that reinforced his entire body, Yu stood his ground without dodging, stepping forward.
Dragon Claw!!
His right hand transformed into three pitch-black dragon claws that swung fiercely. Amidst the shocked gazes of all the Hidden Cloud ninjas around, Yu unleashed a giant black dragon claw shockwave directly through Taijutsu, crushing the seven swords flying towards him into pieces!
"Lightning Oppression Horizontal Chop!!"
Just as Yu was about to press his advantage, a violent and fierce lightning flashed in the air beside him. The Fourth Raikage had already leaped into the air with incredible speed and descended in a powerful dive. His hand entangled with astonishing Lightning Release Chakra and furious strength, he unleashed a full-force downward chop towards Yu.
"Tsk, this is quite troublesome..."
Caught between the pincer attack of the Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer B, Yu reluctantly abandoned the idea of continuing his pursuit. His body began to spin like a whirlwind, and everyone could hear the resounding dragon roar bursting from the air before them.
Dragon Fang!!
Yu swiftly turned and unleashed a powerful uppercut, a ferocious dragon shockwave roaring out like an Air Cannon directly meeting the Fourth Raikage's downward chop.
Boom!!!
Around them, the Hidden Cloud ninjas heard a sound akin to a bomb exploding. A visible shockwave spread from the point of impact between the two, making it hard to believe that such an effect could be produced solely through physical Taijutsu.
After the dust settled, all the ninjas present could only see Yu standing calmly in his fully Armament Haki-darkened form, unharmed and still standing in place. Meanwhile, their Raikage-sama had been blasted back tens of meters away. The comparison of strengths was clear for all to see.
"He actually repelled Raikage-sama with Taijutsu..."
All the surrounding Hidden Cloud ninjas found everything before their eyes so unbelievable. They knew well the level of Taijutsu mastery possessed by the Fourth Raikage in terms of body defense, strength, and speed—a pinnacle existence in the entire ninja world.
But now, they witnessed a young ninja who was only sixteen years old, still in the developmental stages of his body, repelling their invincible Raikage-sama solely through Taijutsu. Could Scarlet Yu, the legendary figure in the ninja world, really be this powerful?
"Damn... this kid's Taijutsu..."
"Could this kid have been training since he was in the womb..."
At the same time, feeling a faint numbness and tingling sensation in his hands, the Fourth Raikage, pushed back by Yu's strike, couldn't calm his mind. He couldn't accept that this young Yu's Taijutsu prowess might surpass his own. It was simply hard to comprehend.
With these thoughts, a suffocating aura of intense killing intent began to emanate from the Fourth Raikage A's violent eyes. He was determined that today, he must kill this kid here, or the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Such formidable NinTaijutsu..."
Seeing the Fourth Raikage before him seemingly unscathed, only his arm slightly damaged, and still directly taking Yu's Dragon Fang at full force in his Second Stage Armament Haki-enhanced state, Yu, standing calmly in place, also showed a hint of surprise in his gaze.
Having honed his physical strength to the utmost and coupled with his masterful NinTaijutsu, it's no wonder this guy could, with the assistance of Third Tsuchikage Onoki, split open Uchiha Madara's Fourth Form Susanoo with a single downward chop during the Fourth Great Ninja War...
"After all, their village retains the most battle power among the Five Great Ninja Villages..."
"It seems that taking on Hidden Cloud single-handedly won't be as easy as I imagined..."
Sensing with Observation Haki the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer B charging up from behind to join forces with the Fourth Raikage against him, as well as the numerous Hidden Cloud ninjas eyeing him with hostility, Yu's previously indifferent expression finally began to turn solemn.
