Chapitre 86: Chapter 86: Kiyoshi’s Growth
"Then experience this for yourself."
Kiyoshi didn't bother wasting time with words.
He raised his right hand without hesitation, palm aimed directly at Jiraiya and clenched tightly.
Wood Style: Deep Forest Emergence!
Rumble!
In an instant.
In Jiraiya's eyes, which were wide with shock, countless saplings broke through the earth.
They grew rapidly, turning into towering trees that filled a radius of over a hundred meters, enveloping the entire area.
Given Kiyoshi's current mastery of Wood Release and his immense chakra reserves, he could have easily summoned a forest hundreds of times larger, like the Forest of Death.
But there was no need to go overboard and waste chakra.
He wasn't a gardener, after all.
Rumble—
In a flash.
The mass of trees surged forward as if they had a will of their own.
They cascaded down like an unstoppable tidal wave, densely packed, and surrounded Jiraiya from all sides.
It was awe-inspiring, a sight that made onlookers tremble.
"What? He created an entire forest in an instant."
Seeing this unbelievable spectacle, Jiraiya's face changed. "This… this is the First Hokage's Jutsu?"
As Hiruzen's student, Jiraiya had heard of the powerful Wood Release.
But he had never expected that this boy, who looked barely ten, could create such a massive forest.
And, he hadn't even noticed when Kiyoshi had made the hand seals.
"Incredible."
Shizune, standing near Tsunade and holding Tonton, couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "He created an entire forest in a moment."
Even she rarely saw Kiyoshi use large-scale Wood Release Jutsus, as he usually trained those in his secluded dimension.
Not to mention Karin.
"So powerful."
She stared in awe at the lush, massive forest that had appeared in the blink of an eye.
Her eyes sparkled with admiration. "Amazing, Kiyoshi."
"This is only the beginning for him."
Tsunade's voice was filled with pride, her eyes shining with emotion.
She believed that Kiyoshi would soon announce to the shinobi world, once again, that the Senju clan had not faded from existence.
Just like her grandfather, the First Hokage, who had once single-handedly brought peace to a chaotic era.
Kiyoshi might even accomplish it more thoroughly, bringing lasting peace to the land that had been ravaged by conflict and strife since the First Hokage's death.
True peace might finally come to the shinobi world.
"A forest of this magnitude… it's truly worthy of an art that could end wars."
Looking at the massive trees closing in on him from all sides, Jiraiya broke out in a cold sweat as he dodged them with difficulty.
Swish!
Several thick vines whipped toward him.
Quick on his feet, Jiraiya leapt backward, narrowly evading them.
But before he could stabilize his footing…
More vines shot at him from behind.
"Giant Rasengan!"
With his senses on high alert, Jiraiya's eyes hardened.
In his right palm, chakra gathered rapidly, forming a massive ball of spiraling energy.
"That's… the Rasengan?"
"It's huge!"
Karin and Shizune looked on, astonished.
"This jutsu just uses more chakra input, making it more powerful than a normal Rasengan. That brat, Kiyoshi, can use it too," Tsunade commented, crossing her arms and watching calmly.
Boom! Boom!
The powerful Rasengan collided with the vines, sending shards of wood flying.
But before Jiraiya could even take a breath, more vines grew, surging forward once more, entangling him relentlessly.
"Giant Rasengan!"
Jiraiya cursed under his breath but was forced to use the Giant Rasengan repeatedly to fend them off.
Boom! Boom!
Within the dense forest, the sounds of explosions rang out, sending plumes of smoke into the air.
The trees, thick with leaves and branches, encased the entire area, like a swarm of conscious vipers.
The assault was endless, unrelenting, and relentless.
"Ugh."
Dodging frantically, Jiraiya barely avoided the oncoming vines.
He gathered chakra in his right hand and destroyed a thick tree in one blow.
"Fire Style: Flame Bombs!"
Barely catching his breath, Jiraiya quickly formed seals, inhaled, and then exhaled a massive burst of oil.
The flames ignited instantly, morphing into a blazing fireball that shot forward.
Crackle… Crack!!
The flames roared, engulfing the trees that surged toward him.
The entire sky turned crimson.
Phew… phew!!
With the surrounding trees momentarily held back, Jiraiya finally caught his breath.
He wiped his brow, gazing at Kiyoshi in disbelief. "This kid's chakra… it's insane."
Was this really a young brat?
Not one of the Kages from the Five Great Shinobi Village?
"And he…he… just keeps going!"
Jiraiya's eyes widened as he saw the trees sprout anew, growing with overwhelming force and even extinguishing the flames he had just created.
Without hesitation, Jiraiya quickly formed hand seals. "But, no matter how powerful a jutsu is, it still depends on the one using it."
"Earth Style: Dark Swamp!"
In an instant.
The ground within a few dozen meters around Kiyoshi transformed into a bottomless swamp, sinking trees and all, trying to drag Kiyoshi down with it.
But before Jiraiya could celebrate, saplings sprouted from beneath Kiyoshi's feet.
They lifted him, keeping him above the swamp that threatened to swallow him whole.
Swish… Swish!!
Like an enormous funnel, the swamp continued to sink, but the trees growing around Kiyoshi extended their roots rapidly, anchoring themselves outside the swamp.
Soon, they took root firmly in solid ground beyond the swamp's reach, making it impossible for the swamp to drag him down.
High above the ground, standing atop a massive tree, Kiyoshi crossed his arms, looking down at Jiraiya with an indifferent gaze.
"Is this really all you've got?"
"What?"
Jiraiya was stunned.
But he had no time to dwell on it.
With Kiyoshi's control, the vines surged toward him once again, violently sweeping across the ground.
Rumble!
The earth trembled.
Countless trees bore down on him like an unstoppable force.
Ignoring Kiyoshi's taunting words, Jiraiya quickly formed another seal.
"Earth Style: Mud Wall."
Rumble!
Within the densely packed forest, a massive wall of earth rose up.
Jiraiya gathered chakra in his feet, climbing up the wall as he dodged the vines that pursued him.
But the thick stone wall was soon shattered by more fast-growing saplings that transformed into towering trees, relentlessly pursuing Jiraiya as he dashed upward.
"This really just doesn't end, does it."
At that moment.
Jiraiya, barely dodging a barrage of vines, broke into a run, dashing toward Kiyoshi with all his might.
"If I just take down the caster, all of this will end."
