The ninjas near the arena were confused by Yusuke and Nagato’s conversation; they didn’t understand what meteor they were talking about.

Suddenly, a powerful wind pressure bore down from above. The wind was so strong that everyone couldn’t open their eyes; hair and hats blew wildly.

”Look at the sky! What is that?!”

”Impossible! It must be genjutsu!”

”Run!”

”It’s too big! We can’t escape!”

A giant meteor broke through the clouds, appearing before everyone.

The ninjas’ faces changed from shock and disbelief to despair. Many ran, but others knew they couldn’t escape and stayed to face their fate.

”Ironic that I came to watch a fight and might die,” Kurotsuchi said, her face pale. Ōnoki, Akado, and Haido were also terrified.

Samui looked at the meteor, uncertain, ”Perhaps Uchiha Yusuke, the strongest ninja, has a way to stop this?”

She doubted it. But those who knew they couldn’t escape looked to Yusuke; he was their last hope.

Yusuke threw Ryūjin Jakka at the meteor. The sword pierced it like a needle.

Two crimson-gold flames ignited in his eyes; the three-tomoe Sharingan transformed into a crimson-gold cross-shaped pattern surrounding the flames.

Ryūjin Jakka instantly shikai; crimson-gold flames erupted, forming a giant fiery wheel behind Yusuke.

Yusuke had raised his spiritual power to its highest level in six years. The violent spiritual pressure created a vacuum around him; even the air seemed to distort.

”What are those eyes? Is there something beyond the Mangekyō Sharingan and the Rinnegan?”

Nagato felt a strong threat. Yusuke’s eyes burned with a cross-shaped flame—his Mangekyō Sharingan pattern.

After six years of spiritual training, Yusuke’s spiritual power had reached a new level, surpassing the Mangekyō Sharingan’s limits and mastering the first technique of ”Bankai: Zanka no Tachi”—the ”Higashi: Kyokujitsujin.”

Spiritual training required constant effort, but Yusuke’s progress accelerated. The stronger his spiritual power, the longer he could stay in the spirit world, allowing for more training. Now, he could train in the spirit world for over two hours daily with high-intensity combat.

With prolonged training, his soul solidified; he could now separate his soul from his body.

A year ago, Yusuke hit a plateau. His spiritual power increased less and less, as if some rule limited his strength. He realized he’d reached the limit of the Naruto world in terms of spiritual power.

With flaming eyes, Yusuke made hand seals, preparing to use Fire Release to destroy the meteor. While Ryūjin Jakka could easily destroy it, the fragments and flames would still cause devastation.

”Fire Release: Solar Eclipse!”

Flames erupted from Ryūjin Jakka, rapidly engulfing the meteor. In a breath, the meteor became a giant ball of fire. The temperature soared, making everyone feel intense heat; sweat evaporated instantly.

Leaves turned yellow; flammable objects caught fire; several areas of Konoha were ablaze.

The burning meteor, under ”Solar Eclipse,” was consumed by flames, turning black from the outside in. The black area grew, and the flames shrank.

After ten seconds, the flames disappeared, leaving a giant black sphere.

”Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!”

Yusuke brought his hands together; a blinding gust of wind struck. The giant black sphere was blown apart into countless black ashes, dispersed by the wind.

The meteor was reduced to ash by Yusuke’s Fire Release and then shattered by the wind.

Everyone watched, stunned. The despair of facing death was replaced by relief and fear of this overwhelming power.

”Everyone, this battlefield isn’t safe for spectators,”

Yusuke’s calm voice echoed throughout the arena. Everyone heard it clearly, as if it were whispered in their ears.

Those who wanted to watch the fight reacted and quickly moved away from Konoha. The battle was captivating, but not worth their lives.

Rasa, facing Minato, frowned. He regretted his actions. He hadn’t expected Yusuke and Nagato to be so powerful; Sunagakure was just a pawn.

”I can only hope Nagato defeats Yusuke. No, neither should exist; they should both die!”

Minato said, ”Kazekage, if you surrender and help us fight Akatsuki, we can discuss things afterward.”

Rasa hesitated. If Yusuke won, he might not spare Sunagakure. If Nagato won, Rasa, having betrayed his partner, would be killed.

After a few seconds, Rasa knew the outcome was beyond his control. No matter what, Sunagakure wouldn’t be safe.

”Enough talk. Let’s see the legendary Yellow Flash!”
