Chapter 159: One Step
Ahead
Waves of air swept in one after
another. The wind blew the ground, leaves flew horizontally, and the strength
and frequency of the river beating the shore increased. The waves blown by the
wind grew higher and higher, splashing water onto Kiba's body.
At this time, Kiba was still tens
of meters away from the river, and hundreds of meters away, the red Nine-Tails
chakra and blue lightning intertwined and exploded, stimulating his eardrums.
Kiba crossed his hands to cover
his face. With two sharp "smacks," branches hit his hands, causing
severe pain.
He squinted his eyes against the
strong wind caused by the punches of the two combatants. Dust was stirred up,
forcing Kiba to squint.
I can't even move a step!
Kiba was already leaning forward,
and when a gust of wind blew, he took a step back, barely maintaining his
stance.
In his squinted eyes, the center
of the electric light and red chakra intertwined was Yotsuki Bi and Kushina's
fierce battle.
With the speed of their punches,
afterimages appeared in Kiba's eyes, making it seem like both of them had six
arms.
No, it's time to open the
Gate Mode! Otherwise, I'll be blown away!
In the violent wind, Kiba took
another step back, then opened the Eight Gates, directly transforming into the
Life Gate mode. The violent chakra in this state was directly transformed into
the Life Gate chakra before it could dissipate.
Feeling the elite Chunin-level
chakra in his body, as well as the enhanced physical abilities, vision, and
hearing, Kiba was able to straighten his body. The gust of wind no longer felt
so violent in the Life Gate mode.
At the same time, he could clearly
see the movements of Kushina and Yotsuki Bi. There were no more afterimages,
and even Yotsuki Bi's serious face and Kushina's gritted teeth were visible.
This is no longer a battle
I can intervene in.
Kiba patted the branches that had
rolled up, squinting his eyes and covering them with one hand to prevent dust
from entering. A wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Although he knew about the Tailed
Beast Transformation and Lightning Release Chakra Mode and their power,
experiencing it firsthand was different. Standing in this fierce wind, the two
fighters still far away, Kiba felt small. He couldn't even get close!
But... hiding in the dense forest
and waiting for Kushina to rescue him, is that all right?
Kiba glanced at the dense forest.
If he hid there, the trees would shelter him from the violent wind and dust,
sparing him from suffering.
Then, he could wait for Kushina to
defeat Yotsuki Bi and go back together.
Maybe Yotsuki Bi has some
other tricks, and the Lightning Release Chakra Mode can also explode with
stronger power. But Kushina has only used three tails now. She is an Uzumaki
clan member and a Jinchuriki. She might be able to explode four tails, five tails,
six tails, seven, or eight tails and defeat Yotsuki Bi.
I just need to wait, hide
in a safe place, wait for my teacher to solve the opponent, and then return to
the village safely. Just leave the battle to Kushina.
However, a special emotion grew in
Kiba's chest.
No! How can it be! Didn't
I make up my mind to control my destiny? Now, how can I hand it over to
Kushina?
Kiba clenched his fist lightly,
his eyes fixed on the battle.
My destiny is in my hands!
If time travel is a new life, fate gave me another chance. How to grasp this
opportunity is my responsibility. Giving it all to Kushina is safe for my life,
and even if Kushina can't win, it will delay my escape time. But with this one
time, what about the second time? What about the third time? Will there always
be a teacher like Kushina desperately trying to save me? Can I always give my
destiny to someone else?
If I run away this time,
I'll keep running away in the future, losing everything like in my previous
life. If I don't take a step here, I may always go backward! Death is terrible,
but not as terrible as imagined. However, if we go back to the cycle of escaping
from the previous life, then... There is nothing more terrifying than this!
Besides, I don't necessarily die!
Thinking of this, the fear in
Kiba's eyes at the power of the two fighters slowly disappeared, turning into a
clear and firm expression.
The two combatants hit each other
with fists. Yotsuki Bi suddenly showed a sneer.
Right now, she has adapted
to my punching speed, and at this moment, the Lightning Release Chakra Mode has
reached another level!
Crackle!
Thinking this, Yotsuki Bi's
Lightning Release Chakra stretched out in a strong radiating pattern, and even
his hair became golden with white spikes.
Boom!
At this time, they punched each
other.
What!
Kushina's eyes widened slightly,
and a "click" sounded. A huge force tilted her striking hand at an
impossible angle.
Her hand was broken!
And Yotsuki Bi's fist, the
momentum remained, missing the fractured hand, and hit Kushina's chest and
abdomen fiercely.
Boom!
The punch with lightning pierced
through the Tailed Beast Coat, directly hitting Kushina's chest and abdomen. A
mouthful of blood spurted from Kushina's mouth. Wearing the red Tailed Beast
Coat, she flew out like a string of arrows.
The experience gap!
As the severe pain came, Kushina
understood in her heart.
He deliberately used this
speed to confront me, and when I got used to his punch speed and power, he
suddenly attacked me!
An anxious voice came:
"Sensei Kushina!"
It's Kiba... no, let him
run!
"Run, Kiba..." she
yelled, but another stream of blood spurted out mid-sentence.
At this time, Yotsuki Bi had
seriously injured Kushina with a punch and was about to pursue her. Hearing
this sound, he glanced out of the corner of his eye, seeing that Kiba had
already run over recklessly, making a gesture to hit him with a punch.
Although there was some distance
between them, Yotsuki Bi still had a smile on his face, knowing the plot had
succeeded.
With a little push off his feet,
he rushed straight to Kiba, his fists already clenched.
I know you can't help it.
The person you want to protect has been hurt so badly, and you'll definitely
rush over anxiously!
However, Kushina's face changed
drastically, and she threw out her other hand. The Tailed Beast Coat stretched
out immediately, turning into red chakra claws rushing towards Kiba, ready to
pull him away.
However, she realized it was too
late.
"Kiba!" she yelled,
blood flying from her mouth.
At this time, Yotsuki Bi had
already arrived in front of Kiba, ready to punch. Kiba did not dodge or evade,
straight up, the anger in his eyes overwhelming his reason.
"Go to hell! Boy!"
Yotsuki Bi shouted.
Sure enough, he lost his
mind! Haha! When 70% of the chakra mode explodes, you'll definitely become a
meatloaf. My goal was you from the beginning! Little bastard!
Lightning and wind punched out
fiercely!
Yotsuki Bi couldn't help laughing
out loud.
Just at that moment!
Boom!
The ground between them suddenly
exploded, a fist rushing out from the ground, hitting Yotsuki Bi's chin
fiercely.
What!
Yotsuki Bi felt the pain in his
chin, his smile freezing instantly.
"Fly for me! Old
bastard!" The blasted gravel hit Kiba's body, causing pain, but Kiba
didn't care, almost roaring out these words.
Boom!
The strange power exploded!
Flesh muffled.
Yotsuki Bi was blown away by this
punch.
Once again, he was blown away with
a punch!
