บท 122: Chapter 122

"The third Raikage is indeed dead..."

Tsunade stared at the body of the Third Raikage lying on the ground. She couldn't help but sigh, feeling that his chakra had completely disappeared, who would have thought that the strongest Raikage in history would die like this....

Judging by the power of this Yerushai attack, it seems that she is already at the level of a Super S-rank jutsu, when faced with such a terrifying jutsu, if she can't dodge, then even with the support of Byakugo no In, she will undoubtedly be waiting for death.

"Erwache!!"

Slightly recovered from the shock, Tsunade cried worried and rushed to Erase.

The silvery light that had previously shrouded Yeruashi's figure disappeared, and his body trembled visibly, but Kusanagi's blade did not fall out of his hand.

He heard the cry of Tsunade, Erase turned his head and smiled: "It's all right, Master Tsunade...just excessive consumption of chakra."

Although Tsunade had some understanding of Yeruashi's condition through Katsuya, she still didn't listen to anything and put her hand on her shoulder, letting out a stream of chakra to check the student's physical condition.

Indeed, there are signs of excessive consumption of chakra.

In addition, there are some symptoms of severe body overload, but that's all, there are no serious injuries, compared to the previous time, the difference in the severity of side effects seems incredible.

Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief and looked doubtfully at Yeruashi: "How..."

"Hehe, who said I've been chilling out for the past month?"

Erase smiled: "I developed a technique that allows the body to return to the condition prior to damage."

Tsunade was surprised: "This technique was created by combining Byakugo no In and Orochimaru's techniques? It's not like you used Byakugo no In."

"It's really not Byakugo no In."

Erase nodded: "But it's not that important, what's more important is that I've finally perfected my abilities and have practically no flaws."

Tsunade could not help a sigh, looking at the Junior the immature person of Erase.

She knows exactly what he means.

Shinobi tirelessly improves his abilities to first become a Genin, then a Chuunin, and finally a Jounin.

If the shinobi was able to reach the level of Jounin, it means that he found a suitable route and successfully passed through it.

But.

As for further advancement and going beyond the boundaries of this path, often advanced shinobi techniques are imperfect and have various defects.

This imperfection in no way indicates a lack of talent of a particular shinobi, but simply confirms the fact that the existence of an all-powerful shinobi is almost impossible, everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, the only difference is how effectively the shinobi hides and levels them.

Consider a simple example.

At the current level, no matter what type of opponent gets in the way, whether it is a shinobi specializing in speed, ninjutsu or genjutsu, Tsunade will be able to give a decent rebuff to any of them.

This is based on a combination of several factors at once, such as experience, improving abilities, understanding the situation, and so on.

Compared to this.

Junin Shinku Yuhi, who specializes in genjutsu and sensorics, will get into a difficult situation when colliding with a high-speed shinobi if he does not have time to apply genjutsu in advance.

If Shinku increases his chakra volume and develops genjutsu to a higher level, comparable to Sharingan users, who do not need to fold seals and only need eye contact to apply genjutsu, he will be able to deal with speed-type shinobi without problems, this is what is called improving abilities.

Whether it was her, Orochimaru, or Jiraiya, they all tirelessly developed their abilities to achieve this. Almost every shinobi who has received recognition in the world has passed through this stage.

This is an extremely difficult step.

On which countless shinobi are stuck.

There are many strong Jounins who are able to resist it to some extent, relying on a powerful forbidden technique, but almost none of them are able to improve their abilities, overcoming their weaknesses and reaching a new level.

Although Yeruashi had previously killed Chiyo, he could only be considered a strong Jounin who had mastered a powerful forbidden technique and was able to suppress Chiyo-type shinobi. He was not a shinobi who had gone through the stage of improving his abilities.

But the current Erase is completely different.

He overcame the side effects of Thunder Gate and possesses the Kusanagi Blade, as well as mastered the Kenjutsu Hatake inherited from his father at the highest level...adding all this up, he can rightfully be considered a shinobi who has improved his abilities and overcome his weaknesses!

Any shinobi, passing through this stage, will become much stronger. How much exactly? It depends on the specific situation.

Having mastered Byakugo no In, Tsunade became much stronger and can deal with any opponent outside of the Jounin level, but when faced with Hachibi, she was practically powerless.

Jiraiya boasted to her that Minato had reached a very high level by improving his abilities, and that there were not many people in the shinobi world who could handle him now.

Minato's achievements on the battlefield confirmed this.

Erase the same.

After successfully improving his abilities, he surpassed countless Shinobi, reaching the level of "Five Kage"!

"To reach this level at eleven years old, you really are...a monster."

Initially, Tsunade wanted to say "genius", but at the last moment realized that this characteristic is no longer suitable for describing Yeruashi, this brat is just a monster!

At the time of the Second World War, the Shinobi, of their trio, only Orochimaru was barely able to improve his abilities, and by that time they were all over twenty years old!

"What kind of assessment is this, Teacher."

Erase rolled his eyes.

Tsunade examined Erase, took off his green cloak and threw it to him, "get Dressed, brat..."

In the previous battle, clothing Erase was badly damaged by the Ryton and now hardly covers the "important" places.

Erase never gave up and wrapped himself in his cloak Tsunade.

It seems that the law of indestructible clothing does not apply to him, after opening the fifth gate, Yeruashi had difficulty keeping the clothes from being destroyed.

But even so, with only unsightly rags left on him, perhaps it's worth finding clothes that won't be so easily destroyed by Ryton?!
