Chapter 82: Chapter 82: Indomitable Uzumaki
On the battlefield, hundreds of ninjas from various villages watched Tanaka, who was floating in the air.
Danzo's initial incitement had been effective, a result that even caught Tanaka by surprise.
However, even with numerous warnings of threats flashing in his retina, Tanaka still smiled.
The malice in his eyes gleamed as he created a Rasengan the size of a volleyball.
"He's going to attack, be careful!" someone warned.
But was that really helpful?
In the next few seconds, they realized it wasn't! Warning had been of no use, as it was just a simple prelude to what was truly coming.
Wind and flames began to swirl around the Rasengan, which quickly transformed into a fiery tornado in Tanaka's hand. The tornado stretched over 2 meters tall and kept growing...
"What the hell is he planning to do?"
"Don't let him continue! Attack, attack!!"
"Damn it!"
Even though they sensed something bad was about to happen, they reacted a little too late.
The moment they launched different jutsus toward Tanaka, he simply waved his hand and used the 'Precise Throw' technique, hurling the flaming tornado right into the middle of them.
"Whoosh!"
The slicing sound of the whirlwind echoed. The temperature of the battlefield, which had been cold, began shifting into a scorching heat, like that of a hot noonday sun. For those closest, it was even worse, to the point of causing burns.
"Good heavens! How is he capable of unleashing such an attack?"
The worst part wasn't even that, but the fact that, as time passed, a mere second was enough for the fiery whirlwind to grow even larger, starting to resemble a cyclone, almost on the scale of a hurricane!
Deliberately, Tanaka avoided the area where the Leaf ninjas were, targeting mainly those from the Cloud and Stone villages.
Only those from the Sand and Mist villages, who had moved to attack Tanaka, were caught in the crossfire. Literally.
"Someone... Someone stop him!"
Hearing this, Tanaka's smile widened. Soon, he performed a hand sign and created an exact clone of himself, while maintaining the cyclone, which was about to transform into a hurricane of flames, under his control. He had not lost sight of Danzo.
'Trying to set me up and flee? Haa! It won't be that easy...'
After letting the clone take control of the attack, Tanaka's body became surrounded by lightning, gaining an appearance similar to the Lightning Cloak. Then, he practically teleported, moving with such speed while flying that those watching could only see an afterimage left behind.
"That speed... Isn't it like the Raikage's?" murmured a Cloud ninja, disbelief etched on his face.
Others thought the same. It was an astonishing speed, amplified by lightning, and on top of that, he could fly, making him even faster!
"By the way... That clone seems to have taken control of this attack!"
When one of them shouted in alarm, the rest snapped out of their stunned state and were in shock. At the moment they saw Tanaka create a shadow clone and move away, they mistakenly believed his attack would either fizzle out or explode on the spot due to lack of control. But reality once again proved they had underestimated Tanaka's powers and tactics.
"We can't reach him! At least we need to destroy that shadow clone now!"
With that order, several ninjas began using jutsus and attacking in the direction of Tanaka's clone, only to be stopped by an invisible dome-shaped shield surrounding the clone.
"What kind of defense is this?" Many were confused.
It was an unfamiliar ability to them.
Although there were similar defensive techniques, none produced such a robust effect.
"As expected of an Uzumaki. I bet it's related to Fuuinjutsu."
Hearing this, several nodded in agreement, thinking it was quite likely.
Meanwhile, Shiori, who wasn't far away, considered helping Tanaka but stopped as she watched the scene unfold.
'Tanaka is so amazing...' Her eyes sparkled a little.
It was hard not to be surprised and fascinated. After all, several ninjas from the four great nations were trying to deal with Tanaka, but in the end, they were the ones who became his prey, now in a precarious situation...
Another loud cry echoed: "If you can't deal with him, we'll handle the attack first. Ninjas who can use Water Style, step up and attack that flaming cyclone!!!"
When they heard this, though it was a more basic solution, they felt enlightened, and soon, many of them lined up while forming hand signs, expelling water from their mouths toward the flaming cyclone, which was mutating into a hurricane.
══════
Seeing this happen, Tanaka's clone laughed. Although it didn't hold full power, he felt it was enough.
Looking down at the ninjas below, he smiled: "Explode."
"BOOM!!"
At Tanaka's command, the cyclone that had been mutating simply exploded like a bomb.
The explosion was so powerful that a mushroom-shaped cloud appeared.
This fierce and violent explosion occurred among the ninjas from various nations.
When the shockwave ended, a third of the nearby ninjas had vanished, while the rest were covered in injuries and weakened.
The atmosphere fell silent.
All the ninjas couldn't comprehend what had happened.
Their eyes were filled with terror.
They couldn't face such an opponent.
The ninja who had given the earlier command, along with the others, stood in shock.
Although they knew how strong Tanaka was, they believed that once they used Water Style, that wicked attack would be nullified.
However…
Before the enemies could get closer, that flaming cyclone simply exploded, causing a massive chain reaction, impacting many of them.
They no longer wanted to advance and stood there frozen.
One of them twitched his mouth. "This monster…"
══════
Meanwhile, Tanaka, who had been chasing Danzo and was about to intercept him, suddenly smiled.
══════

'Finally, level 100!'
Of course, the most important thing was the dungeons that had been unlocked.
As for not showing too much information or even what kind of things to expect in these dungeons... He would have to grit his teeth and find out for himself.
Setting that aside for now, he paused in front of Danzo: "We meet again, Danzo~"
While Tanaka's voice was cheerful, even friendly, to Danzo it felt more like the voice of the devil himself.
Danzo, who thought he had finally escaped by setting up Tanaka, was in total shock.
'How did he manage to do this!?' Danzo couldn't believe it. Or rather, he didn't want to believe this reality.
