Capítulo 82: 82. Best Decision of my life
(Guys! Give me your Powerstones! Let's reach 200 stones for an bonus chapter)
Shizune, seeing an opening as Kabuto focused on taunting the boys, launched into action. She exhaled a cloud of poison gas directly at Kabuto's face, confident that even a whiff would be enough to incapacitate a normal jounin.
To her horror, Kabuto seemed completely unaffected. He smirked at her shocked expression. "Poisons won't work if they don't reach their destination," he explained, his voice dripping with condescension. "I can control the flow of poison in my body with chakra."
Shizune's eyes widened in realization. This wasn't just some run-of-the-mill shinobi - Kabuto was a highly skilled medical ninja, possibly on par with herself.
Seeing Shizune's momentary distraction, Sasuke seized the opportunity. His hands flew through a series of hand signs, ending on the tiger seal. "Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!" A massive ball of flame erupted from his mouth, hurtling towards Kabuto.
Kabuto leaped backwards to avoid the fire, but Naruto was waiting. Several shadow clones burst from the ground, grabbing Kabuto's ankles and attempting to drag him down.
For a moment, it seemed like they had the upper hand. But Kabuto's reflexes were lightning-fast. He created chakra scalpels with his feet, slicing through the shadow clones and freeing himself in one fluid motion.
As the battle continued, Sora watched intently, his mind racing with strategies and techniques he could use if called upon. He glanced back at Tsunade, who was still frozen in her kneeling position, eyes wide and unfocused.
"Hang in there, Granny Tsunade," he murmured, his voice filled with a maturity beyond his years. "We're going to get through this."
Meanwhile, atop the giant summons, Jiraiya and Orochimaru continued their fierce battle. Manda had coiled around Gamabunta, trying to squeeze the life out of the massive toad, while Gamabunta struggled to break free.
"Give it up, old friend," Orochimaru hissed, dodging a Rasengan from Jiraiya. "You can't stop what's coming. The Leaf Village will fall, and I will have my revenge!"
Jiraiya gritted his teeth, pushing back against Orochimaru's assault. "As long as there's breath in my body, I won't let you harm the village or these kids!"
Their battle was a sight to behold, two legendary Sannin unleashing their full power against each other. Ninjutsu of every element filled the air, the very fabric of reality seeming to warp around them as they fought.
Back on the ground, the tide of the battle against Kabuto was starting to turn. Despite their best efforts, Naruto, Sasuke, and Shizune found themselves being pushed back. Kabuto's medical ninjutsu allowed him to heal any injury almost instantly, while his knowledge of the human body made his every strike potentially lethal.
"Is this really all the Leaf Village has to offer?" Kabuto taunted, adjusting his glasses with a smirk. "Pathetic."
Naruto, panting heavily, formed his signature hand sign. "Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu!" A dozen clones popped into existence, surrounding Kabuto.
Sasuke, seeing Naruto's plan, quickly followed up. "Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu!" Multiple small fireballs shot towards Kabuto, weaving between the shadow clones.
Kabuto's eyes narrowed as he assessed the situation. With a series of rapid hand signs, he slammed his palms on the ground. "Earth Style: Mud Wall!"
A thick wall of earth rose up, shielding Kabuto from the fireballs. The shadow clones leaped over the wall, kunai in hand, but Kabuto was ready. His hands glowing with chakra, he dispatched the clones with terrifying efficiency, his movements almost too fast to follow.
As the last clone dispelled, Kabuto turned to face his opponents, a confident smile on his face. But his expression quickly changed to one of surprise as he saw Naruto charging towards him, a swirling ball of chakra in his hand.
"Rasengan!" Naruto cried, thrusting the jutsu forward with all his might.
For a split second, it seemed like the attack would connect. But at the last possible moment, Kabuto twisted his body, the Rasengan grazing his side instead of hitting him full on. Even so, the force of the jutsu sent him flying backwards, crashing through his own mud wall.
Naruto fell to one knee, gasping for breath. The Rasengan had taken a lot out of him, and he wasn't sure how much longer he could keep fighting at this intensity.
Sasuke moved to cover Naruto, his Sharingan spinning wildly as he tracked Kabuto's movements. The medical ninja emerged from the rubble, his clothes torn and blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. But to everyone's shock, the wound on his side was already healing, the torn flesh knitting itself back together before their eyes.
"Impressive, Naruto-kun," Kabuto said, wiping the blood from his lips. "But not good enough, I'm afraid."
As the battle raged on, Sora found his attention divided between watching the fights and keeping an eye on Tsunade. The legendary medic-nin was still paralyzed by her hemophobia, her eyes glazed over as she relived traumatic memories.
Suddenly, a new presence made itself known on the battlefield. With a puff of smoke, a figure appeared next to Orochimaru atop Manda's head. As the smoke cleared, Jiraiya's eyes widened in recognition and horror.
"No... it can't be," he muttered.
Orochimaru's laughter echoed across the battlefield. "Oh, but it is, my old friend. Allow me to reintroduce you to the Fourth Kazekage!"
The reanimated form of Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage, stood impassively next to Orochimaru. His eyes, normally brown, now had black sclera and strange pupils - a clear sign of the Impure World Reincarnation jutsu.
"You've gone too far this time, Orochimaru!" Jiraiya shouted, his face contorted with anger. "Using the dead as your puppets... have you no shame?"
Orochimaru merely smirked in response. "Shame? Such a useless emotion. All that matters is power, and with this jutsu, I have power over life and death itself!"
With a wave of his hand, Orochimaru sent the reanimated Kazekage leaping towards the ground, directly at Tsunade and Sora.
Jiraiya's eyes widened in panic. "Sora! Look out!"
Sora, his young face set with determination, quickly assessed the situation. He could feel the immense pressure emanating from the approaching figure, even if he didn't recognize who it was.
If he had paid more attention in his academy classes, he might have recognized the Fourth Kazekage. But despite his lack of formal knowledge, Sora's instincts told him this was an extremely dangerous opponent.
Without hesitation, Sora began weaving hand signs. From the storage seal in tattoo shape on one of his shoulder blade, connected wirelessly to his bracers, a massive amount of water erupted forth. In an instant, he formed a shadow clone, which immediately used the water for a B-rank jutsu.
"Water Style: Rising Water Slicer!" the clone shouted.
A continuous series of razor-sharp water blades shot towards the approaching Kazekage, slicing through the earth with deadly precision. However, to Sora's shock, a wave of golden sand rose up to intercept the attack. The water blades stream collided with the sand, creating a spray of golden droplets but failing to break through the defense.
Undeterred, Sora quickly formulated a new plan. As the remaining water from his initial attack rushed towards the sand defense, he created another shadow clone. This one positioned itself to the side, out of the Kazekage's direct line of sight.
The reanimated Kazekage dispelled his sand shield, his black and gold eyes focusing on Sora. In that moment of perceived vulnerability, Sora's hidden clone struck.
"Water Style: Water Bullet Jutsu!"
A high-speed projectile of water shot from the clone's mouth, aiming directly for the Kazekage's heart. The attack was so fast and unexpected that it pierced through the Kazekage's chest, creating a gaping hole where his heart should be.
For a brief moment, Sora felt a surge of triumph. "Take that, old guy!" he crowed, a smug look on his young face. "You're not so tough after all!"
But his victory was short-lived. To Sora's horror, the hole in the Kazekage's chest began to close, flesh and bone regenerating at an impossible rate.
"Hey, hey!" Sora protested, his voice a mix of indignation and fear. "This is cheating! Actually, double cheating! In the academy, they said that dead people are not supposed to stay... well, not dead! And they definitely shouldn't be able to regenerate their hearts!"
Despite the gravity of the situation, Jiraiya couldn't help but feel a twinge of amusement at Sora's outburst. The boy's ability to maintain his spirit even in the face of such danger was truly remarkable.
The Kazekage, bound by Orochimaru's jutsu, remained silent. Instead, he raised his hands, and a wave of golden sand rushed towards Sora.
"I knew it!" Sora exclaimed as he flickered to a different location. "Bunking classes was the best decision of my life! They teach useless things after all"
