As Haori completed his Summoning Jutsu, it was quite impressive. Because he didn't know what he was summoning, the masked ninja, faced with the unknown danger, couldn't complete his fatal blow and could only retreat immediately.
The sound of clanging metal echoed as thick, iron chains appeared before him.
One end of the chain hung on the ground, while the other extended into the air, fixed to the top of a giant iron gate that had suddenly appeared, 50 meters high and 40 meters wide, with a crimson demon mask painted on it!
The iron gate rose abruptly from beneath Haori's feet. This was his summon.
Ninjutsu: Summoning Jutsu: Rashōmon.
This was the ultimate defense technique used by the First Hokage to defend against the Tailed Beasts. It was also an A-rank Summoning Jutsu. Because of its size and weight, only the First Hokage, with his BUG-level chakra, could freely and easily summon the Five-Layered Rashōmon.
Orochimaru, one of the Sannin, could also use this jutsu. But he was ultimately not as good as the First Hokage. He could only use the Three-Layered Rashōmon to protect himself. As for Haori now…
Well, he could still manage to summon a single-layered Rashōmon and maintain it for a while.
But no matter how powerful this Summoning Jutsu was, it was just a defensive technique. Did it make sense to summon it now?
It did make sense.
The enemy's water clone was obliterated by the impact of the Rashōmon that had been suddenly summoned. At the same time, the Water Flow Whip that had bound Haori was instantly released.
If the enemy's original body hadn't retreated, this summoning impact would have probably dealt him a heavy blow.
And after retreating, he looked at this giant summon with a conflicted expression.
This thing made him feel confused and helpless. What was the purpose of summoning it? To defend against his kunai attack? That was too exaggerated.
The downpour suddenly turned into a drizzle in the blink of an eye.
But the dark clouds in the sky seemed to descend angrily, their thickness blocking every ray of sunlight.
The rain hadn't stopped, but the wind had. The sky was even darker than before.
"Da"
"Da"
"Da"
"Da"
This was the sound of ninja sandals stepping on iron.
One sound after another. Haori walked vertically on the back of the Rashōmon. Then, he calmly walked to the top of the Rashōmon.
"You got one thing right. My chakra is indeed running low. Now, I've used this Summoning Jutsu. The remaining chakra can only be used for one jutsu."
Haori's voice wasn't loud, but it could now be clearly heard by the enemy. The Chidori flow on his body had already disappeared.
"But there's another thing you got wrong from the beginning. Knowing that Lightning Release consumes so much chakra, why would I keep maintaining it?"
Haori looked down at the enemy. From his perspective, he could still see the occasional sparks of Lightning Release flashing in certain places on the ground.
Yes, he had been continuously releasing Lightning Release chakra since the beginning of the battle. This wasn't a pointless waste. His goal was to create a large-scale electric field in this clearing.
And because of this electric field, the thunderclouds kept gathering around this place.
Then, to unleash this forbidden S-rank jutsu, he needed to create a high point for himself.
So, he summoned the Rashōmon. He wasn't trying to go to heaven. But he did need a high point to get closer to the thunderclouds.
"Rainy days are more advantageous for a Lightning Release ninja like me than for a Water Release ninja."
After saying this, Haori was going to unleash his remaining chakra and his last jutsu in this battle.
… To be precise, although he only needed to release chakra once, the next step was actually two jutsu.
Haori naturally spread out the palm of his right hand and then extended his right arm straight towards the sky.
Lightning Release: Chidori Sharp Spear: Second Stage!
Lightning shot straight into the sky.
In the sky, the low rumble of thunder and the flickering lightning suddenly disappeared.
No, they didn't disappear. They were gathered together.
Although this description is a bit inaccurate, after all, it was daytime. But in fact, the sky was indeed as bright as day at this moment.
Behind Haori, it was quiet. There wasn't a sound. It seemed like there wasn't any danger either—if there hadn't been a beam of lightning, which had just gathered in Haori's palm, hanging down from the clouds, covering the entire sky, and carrying an aura of absolute destruction.
Eyebrows and eyes drawn, lightning like a Qilin, like a divine beast, like a deity!
The masked ninja was actually a bit stunned at this moment. He couldn't help but mutter to himself,
"It's like a Qilin…"
"Well, because it is a Qilin… After our several exchanges, I've come to understand. Although it's hard to judge who's faster in absolute speed, you're definitely much more agile than me in terms of body movements. With that kind of single-target attack speed, it would be very difficult for me to inflict a fatal blow on you. So, I abandoned that method and chose a range jutsu."
Haori's voice seemed the same as always, but it also seemed to have a kind of coldness and indifference that hadn't been there before.
This jutsu, the S-rank Lightning Release that utilizes the environment to the fullest, Qilin!
Lightning Release: Qilin. It was worthy of being an S-rank forbidden jutsu. Its advantages were obvious. It had a wide range, great attack power, low chakra consumption, and it was so fast that the enemy couldn't dodge it.
For the creator of the jutsu himself, Qilin was a jutsu that required the keen insight of the Sharingan. Only the Sharingan could see the speed and direction of lightning in an instant.
And the reason why it was considered a forbidden jutsu was that Qilin was too powerful. Even with the Sharingan, it was very easy to electrocute the user if you weren't careful.
But now, there was someone who didn't need that kind of precise control—because no matter how much electricity he took, he would be fine and dandy.
So, he had very few limitations when using this jutsu. All he had to do was two things: First, to maximize the power of the jutsu, he needed to gather the thunderclouds beforehand. Second, he needed to bring the Lightning Release Qilin down from the sky.
Standing on top of the Rashōmon, with an empty field in front of him, Haori confidently took a step forward. Then, he fell headfirst from 50 meters…
Well, he didn't really fall. After falling four or five meters, he lightly tapped his foot on the Rashōmon. Then, using the momentum, he dashed down the vertical surface.
The Qilin was still behind him for the first second. But in reality, when he started to descend, the jutsu almost ignored space and time, directly passing through his body and charging ahead of him.
Then…
It struck the ground!
"Boom!"
The Lightning Release Qilin struck the ground. The electricity flowed out like water being poured from a kettle onto a mirror surface, expanding outwards in concentric circles from the initial point.
At this point, this Lightning Release jutsu wasn't so quiet anymore. After a boom, the jutsu was like it had been detonated. The crackling sound of electricity, which was a thousand times more stimulating to the ears than Chidori flow, instantly rang out!
And as the Lightning Release expanded in concentric circles, Haori saw super-thick lightning bolts begin to run wild below. Wherever the lightning "flowed," the ground quickly cracked and was destroyed!
This was a jutsu that could cause large-scale terrain destruction!
Within the range of this super-wide and super-powerful jutsu, there would be no survivors. The enemy had nowhere to hide and nowhere to escape!
Haori lightly landed. Then, with a "poof," the Rashōmon disappeared.
The Qilin's form only existed for a moment. The lightning on the ground was still flashing, but the divine beast had disappeared.
And the enemy was already lying motionless on the ground.
Haori walked step by step towards the enemy—if that could still be called "beside" him.
Most of him was directly carbonized, and a strange meaty aroma permeated the air.
Haori was expressionless. Did he have any special thoughts at this moment?
Probably not.
Because this was a Shinobi World in upheaval. Ninjas from every village were moving faster than ever before.
But no matter how hurried the ninjas' steps were, no matter how they gathered and dispersed, no matter how much joy or sorrow came involuntarily, there was always something that stimulated them in a unique way, three times a day, through some kind of sensory experience, reminding them of their destination tomorrow and not forgetting where they came from yesterday.
Whether they liked it or not, reality was urging them to move forward.
They packed their bags, set off, traveled, and settled down… And then, in this scene, the young ninja Shiraishi Haori from the Leaf Village of the Land of Fire finally found the correct way to cook ninjas…
