The air grew thick with tension as Sasuke's Susanoo materialized. The skeletal figure now stood in the arena, the sight of the remaining villagers watching from a distance steeling Jiraiya's determination.
Without another word, Sasuke swung his katana, and the Susanoo mirrored his movements. A massive blade of pure energy sliced through the air, aiming straight for Jiraiya. The Sannin barely managed to evade, the ground where he stood moments ago now a smoldering crater.
Jiraiya quickly formed hand signs, summoning a large swamp beneath Sasuke's feet. "Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld!" he shouted, the ground turning into a thick, swamp that threatened to ensnare Sasuke.
Not wasting a moment, Jiraiya created three shadow clones. They surrounded Sasuke, each forming a massive Rasengan. "Sage Style: Giant Rasengan!" they roared in unison, launching their attacks towards him.
The three Giant Rasengans collided with Susanoo's formidable defense, causing shockwaves through the air. Susanoo's skeletal frame took the brunt of the attack but began to crack under the immense pressure.
However, the Mangekyō Sharingan pulsed with more power, and the damaged Susanoo started to repair itself rapidly, the cracks sealing almost instantly.
As the dust began to settle, Sasuke's Susanoo remained standing. He smirked, his confidence unwavering. "Is that all you've got, Jiraiya?"
Jiraiya's eyes widened at the sight of Susanoo's rapid recovery, leaping back. "Then let's see how you handle this!" He clapped his hands together, and a massive toad emerged from the smoke—Gamabunta.
The situation got tense as the arena became crowded, leaving little room to maneuver.
"Jiraiya, this doesn't look like a good place to fight," Gamabunta's deep voice rumbled as he eyed the civilians around the arena.
"Don't worry, I'll handle this," Jiraiya replied, hopping onto Gamabunta's head. He quickly performed another hand sign, summoning a multitude of small toads. "Take the civilians to safety!" he commanded.
The small toads scattered throughout the arena, each finding a civilian. With a series of rapid jumps, the toads grabbed hold of the onlookers and, in a blink, took them to a safe distance away from the battlefield.
The arena now clear, Jiraiya focused his attention back on Sasuke. "Alright, Sasuke, now it's just you and me."
Watching Gamabunta draw his massive sword, Sasuke used
his katana, he cast Fiendfyre, the cursed flames enveloping Susanoo's colossal blade. The Fiendfyre roared to life, hungry and chaotic, its flames dancing wildly around the sword. Sasuke felt a slight irritation in his eyes as he tried to fix the damage done by Fiendfyre, which was eager to consume the sword but it was all worth it as Sasuke's Susanoo clashed against Gamabunta's sword, making some of Fiendfyre attached to Gamabunta's sword.
Watching the fire attached to his sword Gamabunta opened his mouth and sprayed water, Jiraiya's eyes widened as he watched films trying to burn the water. "That's...!"
"Hold on tight!" Gamabunta shouted as Gamabunta leaped into the air, narrowly avoiding another attack. The ground beneath exploded in flames, the heat searing even from a distance.
Jiraiya knew they couldn't continue forever. "Gamabunta, we need to go all out."
"Got it!" Gamabunta replied, taking a deep breath. "Water Style: Water Bullet!"
A torrent of water erupted from Gamabunta's mouth, clashing with the flames. Steam hissed and billowed as the two elements collided, feeling the water wasn't effective
Jiraiya formed another series of hand signs. "Fire Style: Toad Oil Flame Bullet!" The combination of oil and fire created a massive stream of flames, aiming directly for Sasuke.
Sasuke's eyes glinted dangerously and decided to play a little control of the upcoming flames with magic splashing on Susanoo then he controlled those flames and spread around making the giant skeleton more managing it looked similar to a Ghost rider a flaming skeleton. To avoid getting cooked by these flames Sasuke cast several protective spell spells on him.
Jiraiya gritted his teeth, feeling the strain of the prolonged battle. He knew they needed a decisive move. "Fukasaku, Shima, let's prepare the Genjutsu!"
The elder toads nodded, beginning their chant. The resonant tones filled the air, wrapping around Sasuke once more. This time, the genjutsu was more potent, aiming to paralyze and disorient him completely.
Sasuke's eyes flickered as the genjutsu took hold, but his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan flared, breaking through the illusion. "You think the same trick will work on me twice?"
Jiraiya took a deep breath, steeling himself for the final assault. "Then we'll try something different." He formed a Rasengan in his hand, infusing it with Sage chakra. "This ends now!"
With a mighty leap, Jiraiya charged towards Sasuke, Sasuke's Susanoo swung its blade, but Gamabunta intercepted, buying Jiraiya the precious seconds he needed.
The Rasengan met the Susanoo's chest with a resounding impact, the force of the Sage chakra cracking the Susanoo's. The Rasengan drilled deeper, the energy threatening to tear through his ultimate defense.
With a final surge of energy, Jiraiya channeled all his might into the Rasengan, breaking through the chestplate of the Susanoo. Sasuke's Susanoo wavered, teetering on the brink of disintegration. He cast a wary eye at Jiraiya, whose Rasengan threatened to overwhelm him.
"It's time to stop playing," Sasuke hissed, revealing the swirling pattern of his Rinnegan.
The moment the Rasengan was about to make contact with his body, Sasuke activated one of the Rinnegan's abilities. "Shinra Tensei!" he shouted, and an immense repulsive force erupted from him.
Not just Jiraiya even at little distant Gamabunta were also thrown back, the Rasengan dissipating as the force hit them.
Sasuke stood tall, his Rinnegan gleaming with power. "You are really unlucky I was playing a game where I would have increase my friends lonely now you have to face me with Rinnegan. for extra information I still have lots of stuff left was planning to show."
Jiraiya struggled to his feet, feeling the weight of the battle. His mind was more disturbed as he looked at Rinnegan
" it won't matter. I will stop you here, Sasuke."
Sasuke smirked, his confidence unshaken. "You're welcome to try."
