บท 287: Chapter 287: Sage Art: Asura Rasenshuriken
"—Top Transformed Buddha!!!"
Thousands of giant black-armored arms extended from the elliptical board behind the Kannon statue, striking toward the oncoming horde of giant serpents.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!!!!!
The horde of giant serpents, transformed by the White Snake Sage, surged toward the Kannon statue at Shishou's feet. The thousands of giant wooden arms behind the statue continuously struck out, clashing with the serpents.
The ground trembled, mountains crumbled, and rivers boiled. The powerful shockwaves from the collision sent debris and dust flying within a 20-kilometer radius, crashing against the sealing barrier maintained by the Great Slug Sage.
The sheer scale of the battle surprised even the Great Slug Sage, one of the three great Sages of the ninja world. She increased her sage energy output to reinforce the barrier, preventing the devastating battle from laying waste to the land.
Through the images transmitted by the Great Slug Sage, Tsunade, Mei Terumi, and the others witnessed the battle between Shishou and the White Snake Sage. They were left speechless by the sheer intensity of the clash.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!!!!!
In the center of the battlefield, the clash between Shishou's True Several Thousand Hands and the White Snake Sage's Myriad Serpent Sage Group continued.
The White Snake Sage's Organic Reincarnation: Myriad Serpent Sage Group technique could transform everything within its range into giant serpents infused with sage energy. Meanwhile, Shishou's True Several Thousand Hands could regenerate continuously through sage energy.
Ultimately, the battle came down to who had more sage energy and who could absorb natural energy from Ryuchi Cave faster.
Seated on the wooden figure of the Kannon statue, Shishou focused all his efforts on absorbing natural energy from Ryuchi Cave through his hidden Wood Release techniques. Thanks to the earlier help from Hyuga Rimei and the others, Shishou, despite his lesser base reserves and absorption speed compared to the White Snake Sage, could now contend with her evenly.
As long as he could exhaust the White Snake Sage's sage energy, he could bring Hyuga Rimei and the others back into the fight for a final assault on the Sage.
The White Snake Sage frowned deeply as she watched Shishou compete with her for Ryuchi Cave's natural energy. Although her absorption speed far exceeded Shishou's, the earlier interference from Rimei and the others had allowed him to steal much of the natural energy, depleting her sage chakra significantly.
With Ryuchi Cave sealed off and unable to draw more natural energy from the earth, every bit of energy consumed would not be replenished. Sooner or later, it would be entirely depleted.
If the White Snake Sage couldn't find a breakthrough before then, she would be in grave danger.
Thinking this, the White Snake Sage rapidly formed hand seals, and five differently colored slender giant serpents emerged from the ground at her feet. The serpents gathered together, aiming at Shishou, and began forming a massive red energy sphere.
Shishou observed the energy sphere, his brow furrowing. "The terrifying energy compressed within that red sphere far surpasses the Tailed Beast Ball of the Nine-Tails and rivals that of the Ten-Tails."
"Is she planning to obliterate me with this attack or break the barrier sealing Ryuchi Cave?"
"Either way, I can't let this attack hit the sealing barrier."
Thinking quickly, Shishou's hands formed seals. The Hell Kannon stood from its lotus pedestal, bringing its hands together and then apart.
Zzzz!!!
Two massive Rasengans, one black and one white, rapidly formed in the Hell Kannon's hands, swelling in size.
This was the Sage Art: Asura Rasenshuriken, used by Naruto in his final battle against Sasuke. It was created with the help of the Nine-Tails absorbing natural energy from the earth and transmitting it to Naruto, combined with Yin-Yang Release. It was one of Six Paths Naruto's ultimate techniques, rivaling Sasuke's Indra's Arrow infused with the chakra of all nine Tailed Beasts.
Although Shishou hadn't reached the Six Paths level yet, he had mastered Yin-Yang Release. With the vast natural energy he had absorbed from Ryuchi Cave and the energy collected by his shadow clones in Shikkotsu Forest, he could control the Kannon wooden figure to unleash this ultimate ninjutsu.
Seeing the black and white Rasengans in the Hell Kannon's hands, the White Snake Sage's expression turned grave. This technique felt incredibly dangerous to her.
As more sage energy poured into the five serpents' mouths, the energy sphere swelled until it reached its limit.
Boom!
The massive chakra sphere, trailing a fiery tail, shot toward Shishou.
"—Sage Art: Five Elements Serpent Sphere!!!"
Shishou raised the Yin-Yang Dual Rasenshuriken above the Hell Kannon's head and hurled it toward the incoming chakra sphere.
"—Sage Art: Asura Rasenshuriken!!!"
Boom!!!
Boom!!!
The Yin-Yang Dual Rasenshuriken exploded, releasing a brilliant flash of light that formed a massive, blinding white sphere, enveloping several kilometers around the White Snake Sage.
The enormous explosion generated a powerful shockwave, sweeping up countless rocks and debris, battering the sealing barrier maintained by the Great Slug Sage.
Tsunade, Mei Terumi, and the others watched the scene transmitted by the Great Slug Sage with their mouths agape, faces filled with astonishment.
As the light from the explosion gradually faded, a spherical crater several kilometers wide was revealed near Ryuchi Cave.
At the bottom of the crater lay the White Snake Sage, reverted to her true form, barely clinging to life. Around her were scattered remnants of her body and pools of blood.
Shishou controlled the Hell Kannon to grab the remaining giant snake head of the White Snake Sage, staring at her impassively.
The once calm White Snake Sage suddenly became agitated, cursing vehemently.
"You sneaky bastard!!!"
"I...******"
"You...******"
Ignoring the White Snake Sage's curses, Shishou simply pursed his lips. He didn't say anything because the initial Yin Rasenshuriken he had thrown was actually a shadow clone transformed during the Hell Kannon's hand-clasping gesture. The true Asura Rasenshuriken was the Yang Rasenshuriken he threw afterward.
The shadow clone, disguised as the Yin Rasenshuriken, reverted to its original form just before contact with the White Snake Sage's energy sphere, using the Flying Thunder God technique to teleport the Five Elements Serpent Sphere to the moon.
The White Snake Sage, not anticipating Shishou's trick, had taken the full brunt of his ultimate attack.
She had been thoroughly outsmarted.
