Naruto: Becoming the Soul King

The Rasengan and the fist collided head-on, and in an instant, a booming sound erupted.

A ring of air pressure spread outward.

After that.

A harsh sound rang out.

It was the sound of the rapidly spinning Rasengan grinding against the fist bone.

The hardness of the bones from Shikotsumyaku was no weaker than steel.

Even against the rapidly spinning Rasengan, with its powerful destructive force, it could resist without being torn apart.

However, the power of the Rasengan was not just the tearing force of rotation.

It also contained a powerful impact force!

The fierce power coming from the fist made Shimaichirō slightly alarmed.

It had actually overpowered the strength behind his punch!

Boom!

Another roar rang out as the power of the Rasengan erupted at that moment, and the terrifying impact swept out.

Forcing Shimaichirō to retreat, his right arm trembling slightly...

”Shikotsumyaku really isn’t weak...”

Seiryū smiled, then formed a hand seal with one hand and pointed forward. ”Hadō #4. Byakurai!”

Amid a sharp crackling sound.

A beam of lightning shot through the air, aiming at Shimaichirō’s heart.

At the same time, Seiryū pushed off with his feet.

Leaving an afterimage behind, his figure followed close after it!

Just as he steadied his footing, the lightning beam came straight at him, but Shimaichirō showed no fear.

Instead, excitement flashed in his eyes as he laughed loudly. ”As expected of Konoha’s strongest genius, this kind of strength really isn’t weak!”

”You are qualified to be my opponent!”

He threw another punch, and the pale white fist bone shattered the incoming lightning beam.

The broken lightning scattered in all directions.

And that punch did not lose momentum, continuing toward the charging Seiryū, the howling wind fierce and sharp!

Seiryū said nothing, his gaze focused.

Just as the fist was about to hit him, he turned sideways and avoided it.

Then he stepped forward, swung his right arm, chakra surging as he used the technique of monstrous strength.

It turned into a fierce punch that smashed toward Shimaichirō’s chest, equally heavy and powerful!

Seiryū’s punch seemed to strike some kind of hard substance.

Pale white ribs pierced out from Shimaichirō’s chest, several ribs crossing over one another to form a special kind of defense.

Shikotsumyaku was strong in both offense and defense.

Its defensive power was also extremely formidable!

Thinking he had blocked the attack, Shimaichirō suddenly coughed up a large mouthful of blood.

His whole body was blasted away by the force of that punch.

While flying backward, he barely adjusted his posture, but shock appeared in his eyes.

The force of that punch had penetrated the bone-spike defense and directly entered his body, injuring his internal organs!

”Bakudō #30. Shitotsu Sansen.”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Before Shimaichirō could fully steady himself, three streaks of golden light shot forward and arrived in the blink of an eye, pinning both of his legs firmly to the ground...

He had already been retreating, and now that his legs were locked.

Shimaichirō immediately lost his balance, and his whole body tilted backward....

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

The sharp humming sound rang out again. Seiryū charged close, only a few meters away from him.

In his hand he dragged a Rasengan the size of a basketball, with three smaller Rasengan revolving around it.

This was Planetary Rasengan!

Planetary Rasengan was based on the Big Ball Rasengan, with three additional ordinary Rasengan added.

And their directions of rotation were different, opposite rotations creating even stronger twisting and tearing force.

In terms of destructive power alone, it surpassed the Big Ball Rasengan.

Seiryū had not just been talking when he said he would crush the other side’s confidence!!

”This is bad...”

The confidence on Shimaichirō’s face was already gone, and shock filled his eyes.

He had underestimated the other side’s strength.

The opponent’s attacks came one after another, without any probing at all.

He was fighting with the intention of killing him!

Wasn’t this too ruthless?

And this kind of ninjutsu was obviously powerful at a glance. If it hit him, he definitely would not come out of it well!

”Water Release: Water Shark Bullet!”

”Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet!”

At the moment of danger, two low shouts came from one direction.

One after the other.

A several-meter-long water dragon and water shark, both formed from water, surged forward and lunged toward Seiryū.

The ones who acted were Shimaichirō’s two teammates.

Mei, and Kisame!

The three of them were one team, so naturally they were moving together.

However, their speed was not as fast as Shimaichirō’s.

When they arrived here, they had just happened to see this scene.

Although they really disliked Shimaichirō’s personality, he was still their teammate, so naturally they would not just stand by.

They acted instantly, trying to stop Seiryū’s movement!

The Water Shark Bullet and Water Dragon Bullet lunged in, and Seiryū naturally noticed them.

But Seiryū paid them no attention.

There even seemed to be a flash of madness and bloodthirst in his eyes.

He ignored the incoming attacks, neither dodging nor blocking.

The Planetary Rasengan in his hand still slammed down toward Shimaichirō!!

”You madman!!”

Seeing this, Shimaichirō could not help but shout angrily.

There was confusion in his eyes, shock, and also a trace of fear that was hard to detect.

Was this guy a madman?

In this situation, he actually did not choose to block the attacks first, and did not care if he got injured as long as he could land his own attack on him?

What kind of lunatic would do something like this?

Was this bastard sick in the head!?

But there was no time to think more. He really did not want to die here!

Crack! Crack!

Shimaichirō pushed his chakra with all his strength.

Bones pierced out from all over his body, crossing over each other to form a defense, using that to forcibly withstand Seiryū’s attack.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three explosions rang out one after another.

The first was the sound of Planetary Rasengan striking Shimaichirō, the second and third were the sounds of Water Shark Bullet and Water Dragon Bullet crashing down.

In that instant!

Violent force erupted in the field and swept outward. Water also splashed everywhere, and currents slammed around wildly!

A small section of the surrounding ground trembled slightly at that moment, and a nearby tree that was not especially tall was knocked crooked and collapsed under the impact, its roots exposed.

This scene.

Left everyone present in shock.

Things had developed too quickly, all within the span of barely more than ten seconds.

They had already been wary of each other and had not acted rashly, so they had not expected this situation at all.

It was truly unexpected!!

Whoosh!

Seiryū, drenched from head to toe and with a streak of blood at the corner of his mouth, rushed out from the violently surging water.

He landed on the branch of a large tree.

Seiryū wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth. ”That really hurts...”

Although he had explosively released chakra from within his body at that instant to defend himself to a certain degree, forcefully tanking the attacks of two Suiton jutsu made it impossible for him to come away uninjured.

Fortunately, it was still within the range he could endure!

Looking at the place below that was still being battered by the water.

Seiryū smiled very ”happily”, the corners of his mouth curving upward. ”But after taking a hit like that, even if that guy put up a defense, he probably won’t feel too good either, right?”

Force him to stop?

What were they thinking!

Anyway, he had Kaidō. As long as he had enough chakra, and as long as the injury was not so serious that he could not endure it, he was not afraid of trading injury for injury!
