Naruto: Starting with Snatching the Mangekyō Sharingan

Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Collapse



Boom! Boom!

On the battlefield, two colossal figures clashed, entering a ferocious hand-to-hand fight. Each collision felt like the earth shaking and the mountains trembling, leaving no one daring to approach their battleground.

Elsewhere, despite the Raikage's blinding speed, Jiraiya, aided by two Sage Toads, managed to hold his ground.

The Raikage's pale blond hair spiked upwards as if electrified. With a blade-like hand, he effortlessly cleaved through Jiraiya's Sage Art: Fire Release. Then, casting a disdainful glance, he taunted,

"Jiraiya, it seems you're nothing compared to your disciple, Namikaze Minato!"

Jiraiya's heart sank as he observed the Raikage split his massive fireball in two. The Raikage's strength has surpassed his prime.

For him, conventional ninjutsu attacks were useless.

"Sage Art: Massive Rasengan!"

Ignoring the taunt, Jiraiya formed a giant, spiraling sphere and launched it at the Raikage.

"A Sage-enhanced Rasengan?"

Raikage A squinted his eyes, showing no intention of dodging. Curling his thumb inward, he roared,

"Hell Stab: Piercing Four Fingered!"

A flash of blue lightning surged forward, meeting the descending Rasengan head-on.

Sizzle.

Sparks erupted as the two forces clashed, creating a muffled explosion.

Boom!

Both combatants were flung back dozens of meters, skidding to a halt.

"So, this is a Sage's technique? It's stronger than the ones Namikaze Minato used!" Raikage flexed his hand, seemingly satisfied with the encounter.

Jiraiya's expression darkened.

"Jiraiya-boy, the Raikage's Lightning Release Armor is too tough. Basic shape manipulation with your Rasengan won't cut it," advised Fukasaku, perched on Jiraiya's shoulder.

"I regret that I'm not well-versed in Wind Release," Jiraiya admitted.

The two Sage Toads could use Wind Release, but their techniques weren't powerful enough to penetrate the Raikage's armor.

We can't afford to delay any longer. Jiraiya glanced at Torifu Akimichi in the distance. The massive Akimichi was being battered by the Eight-Tails, his body bloodied and bruised.

The Eight-Tails seemed to treat the fight like a game, holding back its full strength. Yet, even at half power, it was clear Torifu was on the verge of defeat.

Suddenly, the Raikage's voice, laced with murderous intent, echoed.

"You've got some strength. Let me end this with one strike!"

Lightning surged around him, blue chakra erupting like a torrent, his muscles swelling visibly.

Jiraiya's gaze hardened. He knew the Raikage was preparing to go all out.

If this drags on, we're doomed. But if I can take out the Raikage, there's still a chance to turn this around. Resolving himself, Jiraiya glanced at the struggling Torifu, then channeled fiery red chakra into his hand.

In a flash, an enormous scarlet sphere materialized, radiating intense heat and causing the surrounding air to shimmer.

"Sage Art: Super-Compressed Fire Release Rasengan!"

On the other side, the Raikage curled his fingers inward, leaving only his index finger extended, crackling with a sharp, cutting lightning edge.

"Hell Stab: One Fingered Assault!"

The red and blue lights collided in an earth-shattering explosion.

Boom! Boom!

The fiery Rasengan seemed unstoppable, but in mere moments, the Raikage's finger cut through it like the sharpest blade. Sparks flew, and the massive sphere was split in two.

"Argh!" The Raikage let out a battle cry as his electrified hand pierced Jiraiya's chest, a sickening crack echoing as ribs shattered.

With a dull thud, Jiraiya was sent flying over a hundred meters, crashing into the ground in a heap. Blood stained the Raikage's massive arm as he coldly smirked.

"Shame. If your Sage Art had been Wind Release, you might've stood a chance. But you're still far weaker than my old man."

Through the swirling dust, two muffled pops sounded as Fukasaku and Shima's summoning reached its limit, returning them to Mount Myoboku.

Jiraiya lay unconscious amidst the rubble, a gaping hole in his chest spilling blood that soaked the earth.

Watching the dying Sannin, the Raikage exhaled, thinking to himself, If this had been an earlier encounter, the outcome might have been uncertain. But by exploiting his desperation, I forced him into a head-on clash.

Raikage Ay approached the fallen Jiraiya, ready to deliver the final blow.

Suddenly, a puff of white smoke erupted where Jiraiya lay. When it cleared, only a pool of blood remained.

"Gone? A reverse summoning from Mount Myoboku?" Raikage's face darkened as he stared at the empty spot.

Meanwhile, Torifu Akimichi was ensnared by the Eight-Tails' tentacles, unable to move.

"This ends now!"

The beast opened its maw, releasing a devastating beam of energy that obliterated Torifu's head. His lifeless, headless body fell with a thud, reverting to its normal size.

Seeing this, the Konoha ninja panicked, scattering like headless chickens.

Cloud ninjas roared with morale, charging at the retreating enemy. The Eight-Tails coiled into a ball and rolled through the battlefield like a giant crushing millstone.

"Good. Even with minor losses, killing Torifu Akimichi is worth it." Raikage Ay stood atop a boulder, watching the chaos with a satisfied grin.

Jiraiya's fate was uncertain, but even if he survived, he wouldn't return to the battlefield anytime soon.

Now, the real battle begins… The Raikage's eyes narrowed as he glanced toward Konoha. Time to speed things up before Mount Myoboku sends word.
