The mist in the valley was thin, and a gentle breeze lightly dispersed the smoke.
"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"
Shin'yu raised one hand high, and with a "buzzing" sound, dazzling lightning flashed, condensing into two large spears of lightning that swept out!
Ginkaku turned into a beam of red light and leaped onto the cliff, the rocks behind him instantly pierced by the lightning spears, exploding into dust.
'This is endless!' He was a little frustrated. This kid's body was so strange. Even with his heart destroyed, he could still jump around!
'If that's the case...' He rolled his eyes slightly and spat out a scarlet feather fan.
Shin'yu's eyes narrowed slightly. 'That is...?'
"Kid, you like playing with lightning, huh!" Ginkaku leaped into the air and fanned fiercely. "Lightning, come!"
"Boom!"
Thunder and lightning poured out like a flood from a burst dam, instantly submerging Shin'yu, countless arcs of electricity crackling!
"Fire, come!" Ginkaku gripped the fan handle and fanned again.
Blinding fire lit up the sky, and rolling flames crashed down, licking the earth, as if a ray of light fell from the setting sun on the horizon, rushing into the lightning in one go!
"Susanoo!"
Only a earth-shattering roar was heard, and a huge black skeleton broke through the flames. Black energy surged like waves, extinguishing all the lightning. Shin'yu's body was blurred, and only two Sharingan eyes bloomed with a bloodthirsty red glow!
"Kid, you think this is the end? This daddy doesn't believe I can't break your tortoise shell!"
Ginkaku roared, "Wind, come!"
A hurricane surged from the Basho Fan, and the wind seemed to hide invisible kamaitachi, even the rocks along the way were scratched with large and small marks. The wind was manic, and instantly merged into the sea of fire!
The wind helped the fire's momentum, and the fire borrowed the wind's power. Temperatures of thousands of degrees flowed in the air, seeming to evaporate everything.
Ginkaku narrowed his eyes and stared ahead expectantly. At this moment, he desperately hoped to see a charred corpse!
Suddenly, the air in the scorched smoke twisted slightly, and a dark lightning bolt broke through the air, and in the blink of an eye, struck in front of Ginkaku!
Ginkaku's pupils shrank, and he twisted his body to the limit. That was not lightning at all, but... a spinning, huge magatama!
"Boom! Boom!"
The magatama shot out like a cannonball, and two consecutive rocks exploded in response, and the rolling rocks seemed to mourn.
A dark hand extinguished the flames, and with a low roar, Susanoo showed its huge body!
However, the current Susanoo is no longer the skeleton it was before!
Black energy spiraled and grew along the spine, condensing substantial meridians and flesh all over the body. Then, the muscles all over the body bulged high, the outer coat-like black Chakra was solid and thick, and four thick arms were clearly visible, and it had become a real half-body giant!
"You had a lot of fun just now!" Shin'yu stared coldly at the red figure lying on the stone wall. The black giant put his four palms together and slowly pulled them apart. As the black light flowed, a series of huge magatama like rosary beads condensed.
This is the second stage of Susanoo. In addition to a richer body shape, it can use its own exclusive weapons and ninjutsu, such as the universal long-range attack ninjutsu - Yasaka Magatama.
"Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!"
Countless jet-black tomoe, like spinning giant shuriken, densely rained down, causing Ginkaku's scalp to tingle, and he didn't even entertain the thought of confronting them head-on.
Being struck by shuriken in Nine-Tails Chakra Mode wouldn't be a big deal, but being swept by these things would cost him half his life!
A beam of red light darted back and forth in the valley, dodging the Yasaka Magatama's attacks. Rocks crumbled, dust filled the air, and explosions echoed like thunderclaps.
Shin'yu remained as steady as Mount Tai under the Susanoo's protection, his right eye spinning like a clock dial as he constantly rewound his own state.
The speed of the tomoe was extremely fast. In Uchiha Hikari's eyes, beams of blurry black light swept and poured down like anti-aircraft fire, shattering everything in their path, kicking up towering clouds of dust. The valley was being razed to the ground!
Suddenly, Uchiha Hikari shivered as scorching heat came from behind her. She quickly turned around, and a massive amount of flames surged toward her like a tidal wave!
Behind the distorted air was Ginkaku's fierce and cunning face.
"Don't underestimate me!" She closed her left eye, and bright red blood gushed from her wide-open right eye. "Amaterasu!"
A spot of black flame appeared in the crimson sea of fire, like ink dripping into rice paper, instantly spreading out and dyeing the entire sea of fire into an abyss-like black!
"Basho Fan!"
Ginkaku seemed to have anticipated this move. With a wave of the Basho Fan, a strong wind arose, and the surging airflow immediately merged into the sea of fire. Under the force of this thrust, the black sea of fire immediately advanced toward Uchiha Hikari.
"Am I going to die..." Light gasped slightly, kneeling on one knee.
"Amaterasu" consumed a great deal of Chakra, and for her current state, it was already a skill comparable to a big move.
Moreover, controlling the rampaging Kinkaku with "Tsukuyomi" just now looked easy to others, but only she knew that it had consumed almost half of her Chakra.
The black flames loomed like dark clouds, faintly sealing off all her escape routes.
Light only felt her vision darken, and when she reacted, Shin'yu had already covered her with his Susanoo.
The rolling black flames spread, and Shin'yu's Susanoo acted as a barrier, blocking the high temperature and heat flow. At first glance, the flames of Amaterasu seemed to merge with the pitch-black giant, indistinguishable from each other.
But Shin'yu's expression was not relaxed. Black smoke curled up as if being evaporated, and a teeth-aching "hissing" sound echoed in his ears. His Susanoo was melting!
"Fire Release!"
"Lightning Release!"
"Wind Release!"
...
Ginkaku began a frantic offensive. He had been chased and beaten by Shin'yu earlier, so embarrassed, and now he would certainly not miss the opportunity to beat a drowning dog!
"It seems I guessed right, that woman is indeed his weakness!"
His offensive was extremely fierce, and the Basho Fan was swung into afterimages. In order to avoid being locked on by Shin'yu, he constantly moved at high speed, changing his position, and releasing five types of ninjutsu at once!
"Damn it, if this continues, I'm really going to be worn down to death by him!"
Shin'yu's face was solemn, and the Mangekyo in his eyes spun like a windmill. Scalding blood covered his face, and repeatedly disappeared in the continuous time rewinds.
At the same time, his Mahoraga could only adapt to one thing, and he chose Amaterasu.
Ginkaku's Five-Style Great Barrage seemed fierce, but in reality, what was causing him damage was this black flame that was like a maggot attached to the bone, as if it would devour everything in the world!
"I can only try that move, but with such a huge target, I don't know if my right eye can withstand it!"
Previously, he would pull the timeline as much as possible, reversing the Amaterasu that had initially ignited back to before it ignited, but now Ginkaku's attacks were constantly providing fuel for Amaterasu. Such a massive macroscopic amount would probably cause an immeasurable burden on his right eye!
"What exactly is the secret to this move?"
Uchiha Hikari's voice suddenly came from behind him, her voice very soft, ethereal like an outsider.
"Susanoo?" Shin'yu looked back at her, thought for a moment, and said, "The feeling of using it is different from using other dōjutsu. If I had to describe it, the feeling of using it isn't for protection, but... destruction, destroying everything in front of you, it's something like that."
"You're almost at your limit, aren't you?" she asked softly.
Shin'yu breathed a sigh of relief, "Yeah, but don't worry, when that moment really comes, I won't let myself die."
"So you're being so embarrassed to protect me..." Light was silent, lightning flashed outside the Susanoo, and the fleeting light made her delicate face appear dim and bright.
"Tch, forget it, it seems that comprehending it here is really unrealistic..." She pursed her thin lips, a trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes, she stretched out her palm, and lightly placed it on Shin'yu's shoulder.
"It's better to stay alive first, and you can slowly teach me later!"
In an instant, Shin'yu felt a jolt all over his body, and a huge amount of Chakra poured into his body, this power was deep, manic, like boiling magma!
"This is... Tailed Beast Chakra?" Shin'yu found that he was also covered in a translucent Tailed Beast Chakra cloak, like wriggling strawberry jelly.
