"It regenerated!" Onoki's eyes widen in shock.
"Is that also an ability of Rinnegan?" He turns towards Minato. The latter nods his head in confirmation.
"What's this godly ability? How do you even fight this?" Onoki wonders.
"It took us a lot of effort to get rid of Akatsuki's former leader, Pain. So, you can imagine the power of Rinnegan." Tsunade remarks while punching the slug-like skin of the six-tails.
"Ugh I hate fighting against such creatures. They can easily disperse the force of my attack through their slimy body." Tsunade recalls her experience with Katsuyu.
She raises her hand and shapes her chakra into a sharp scalpel.
Swish swish
She chops the slimy tails of the six-tails encroaching towards her.
Phoosh
Utakata, in his six-tail form, spews out a corrosive liquid.
Whoosh
Tsunade quickly jumps behind a boulder. The boulder melts as a result of the corrosive property of the six-tail saliva. Utakata makes a hand seal and spits out multiple bubbles from his mouth. The bubble covers the entire battlefield and surrounds Tsunade.
Pop
One of the bubbles burst and spreads a corrosive mist. The surrounding trees melt from the corrosive property of the liquid.
Pop Pop
More and more bubbles burst and covers the entire area in mist.
Whoosh
Tsunade hurriedly jumps out of the mist. A portion of the corrosive liquid melts the hem of her clothes and some of her skin.
Tch
She clicks her tongue in annoyance. The burns on her body quickly regenerate and restore her skin.
"It's too annoying to fight it in close range and physical attacks don't even work on it. Looks like I have to use the technique taught me. It took me years to learn it."
Haah
Tsunade takes a deep breath and calms her mind. She claps her hand and the strength of a hundred seals spreads across her entire body.
"This technique is quite taxing on the body. I didn't know it until I tried it. But Izuna was able to use it just fine without any damage to his body. Looks like he has a regeneration factor on par with Grandpa, but how's that possible? No, if it's Izuna, then everything is possible."
Tsunade shakes her head to clear unnecessary thoughts. The strength of the hundred seals covers her entire body in black totem lines, greatly boosting her regeneration, stamina, endurance, and strength.
HAAAH
Tsunade riles up her chakra.
BANG
The ground beneath her cave in due to the effect of her powerful chakra. A burst of fire, lightning and black Yang energy shrouds her body. Cracks spread across the ground as her tremendous chakra creates a pillar in the sky.
"This chakra!"
The rest of the Kages turn towards Tsunade in surprise.
A crimson cloak of lightning and fire envelops Tsunade. A mix of red and black lightning flickers across Tsunade's eyes as her strength increases dramatically.
"This is" A stare at Tsunade's transformation in amazement.
"Isn't this similar to my lighting cloak?" He glares at the flickering red and black lightning around Tsunade's body.
"No, wait! I have seen this somewhere before." A attempt to recall a similar sight. After a few seconds, a scene appears in his mind as some lost memories and trauma recover.
The sinister face of a demon clad in a similar crimson robe appears in his mind as the demon approaches him.
Yes, A has been suffering from nightmares after his defeat at the hands of Izuna.
Tsunade clenches her fists.
"Strength is surging through my body. Though I can't maintain this form for too long since it's too taxing on both my chakra and body. But keeping it up for the next five minutes isn't a problem."
Onoki also stares at Tsunade in amazement.
"This chakra transformation and this perfect blend of chakra. This technique it is it is a Kekkei tota." He points towards Tsunade with trembling fingers.
Being a Kekkei tota user himself, Onoki is quite sensitive to other elemental chakra transformations.
"I didn't expect Tsunade-san to pick up this technique from my husband," Mei mutters as she battles against Yagura.
"Husband that means this technique was created by Izuna Uchiha?" Onoki turns towards her in surprise.
"Yes, this is one of the original techniques of my husband. He created this technique when he was only eleven years old. This technique is similar to a Kekkei tota, but not quite. Rather, it's a fusion of two Kekkei Genkais. Those crimson flames are enhanced flames produced by a perfect blend of Fire and Yang release. Similarly, the black lightning is also a blend of lighting and yang chakra. Both of these Kekkei Genkais merge in a perfect ratio to amplify their power by almost five times. Since this chakra transformation involves two elemental and one non-elemental chakra nature, it's technically a Kekkei tota." Mei explains.
"Incredible! To think of such a method. A real genius, not a prodigy, but a genius beyond comparison." For the first time, Onoki feels respect for a shinobi other than his sensei.
Dust release was a technique created by his teacher, the first Tsuchikage Ishikawa. However, Ishikawa passed away before he could complete the technique. On his deathbed, he passed the secrets of this technique to his first student Mu, who perfected the technique and later became the Second Tsuchikage. Mu passes this technique to him and through his years of practice, Onoki refined this technique even further.
It took three generations of effort to perfect such a powerful technique, and yet an eleven-year-old kid created a technique of a similar scale.
Onoki glances at the power emanating from Tsunade's body. He can sense that this technique has enhanced Tsunade's strength, speed, and endurance almost tenfold.
In terms of pure destructive power, his dust release is superior to this technique. However, in terms of utility, his technique loses to Tsunade's technique.
"What's the name of this technique?" Onoki wonders aloud.
"It's called Power Release!" Mei remarks.
"Power Release, huh! A fitting name indeed." Onoki watches in silence as Tsunade pummels the six-tails without any chance for the latter to react.
The corrosive acid of six-tails is unable to penetrate the protective cloak of power release and the energy emanating from the power release can harm six-tails' partially transformed body. Slowly but surely, Tsunade whittles down the chakra of the Six-tails.
"What a bunch of monsters, these Konoha shinobis?" Onoki mutters.
'Looks like there is a need to accelerate the progress of project Gai.'
Soon, the Kages overwhelm Obito's six Edo jinchuruki paths and slowly trap him in the encirclement.
"Give up, Obito!" Minato and the rest surround Obito.
"There is still time for you to reform and surrender. None of us will blame you for whatever happened till now." Minato attempts to convince him.
"I am already aware that Madara Uchiha manipulated you and is the real mastermind behind all of this. So, as long as you surrender"
HAAH
"Surrender! Punishment!" Obito chuckles.
"Do you think you have cornered me?" He glares in the eyes of every Kage.
'Looks like I have to resort to one of my trump cards.'
Obito takes out multiple chakra pills. He swallows all of them in a gulp.
SHOOM
A large amount of chakra gathers in Obito's left eye. He raises his left hand towards the eye.
'I will use Rinnegan's power to summon the giant Chibaku Tensei created by Madara Sensei before his death. I will destroy this entire nation together with all the Kages.
Earlier, Zetsu confirmed that this space-locking seal of Minato sensei restricts all sorts of space-time ninjutsu, even including the abilities of its creator. So, Minato sensei can't teleport others out with his Flying Thunder God jutsu.
Even though I will also be crushed by the Chibaku Tensei; I will sacrifice my right eye to cast Izanagi and escape death.'
"This isn't good. He is about to use a powerful ability of the Rinnegan." Minato senses the large amount of chakra being accumulated in Rinnegan.
"This is farewell, Kages!"
Whoosh BANG
Suddenly, a crimson double-side energy glaive flies out of nowhere and stabs into the ground between the five Kages and Obito. The ground splits in half at the point of impact of the Glaive.
Whoosh
A cloaked figure flickers beside Obito.
SSh
A white snake slithers out of the black-cloaked clothes and wraps around Obito's hand.
"Kabuto!" Obito recognizes the white snake.
"Which means?!" He turns towards the black-cloaked figure in trepidation.
"Who is he?!"
The Kages stop in their tracks and glare at the newcomer.
"He is a powerful shinobi to be able to break through the barrier I constructed to isolate this place." Minato stares at the black-cloaked figure in trepidation.
"It's strange. I can't sense his chakra signature." Ao remarks.
"A powerful shinobi with perfect chakra control can mask his chakra." Minato remarks.
'Though Izuna is the only one I can remember who can do so. But this feeling, it's very familiar.'
Minato warily glares at the newcomer.
The newcomer picks up his glaive from the ground. He raises it in the air and infuses a large amount of chakra into it.
"Everybody lay on the ground!" Minato yells at the top of his lungs.
Having learned their lesson, everyone in Minato's vicinity quickly follows his instructions.
The cloaked figure swings his glaive and unleashes a powerful large-scale attack. The powerful attack slices through Minato's barrier and forcibly rips apart the space-locking seal.
BANG
The surrounding space shatters like glass fragments as Minato's space-locking seal gets destroyed by the attack.
"That's that's impossible."
The barrier crumbles apart to reveal Kushina and the group outside the group.
Whoosh
Sasuke and Ayaka swiftly take action and throw their most powerful attacks toward the cloaked figure.
Whoosh
Having regained his ability, Obito phases through their attacks. The cloaked figure raises his hand and clenches the head of the lightning dragon roaring towards him with his bare hand.
CRACK
He shatters Sasuke's lightning dragon with his bare hands.
"Release!"
Ayaka makes a hand sign and uses the power she borrowed from the Sin seal.
BOOM
Multiple curse marks appear around the black-cloaked figure's arm which is holding her attack.
BOOM
The seal glows brightly and explodes. Dust and smoke settle down to reveal a perfectly fine figure. The clothes around his arm turn to ashes and half of the mask covering his face slowly crumbles apart.
"THAT FACE!"
Everyone's eyes widen in shock.
