"Ahhhhh!"
Screams of agony kept echoing within the Forest Enclosure while warning messages continuously popped up in Mirai Uchiha's mind.
Originally, the attacks from the forest were already terrifying enough. Now the entire Forest Enclosure had caught fire, further increasing its destructive power.
High temperatures, oxygen deprivation, and entangled roots...
The harsh conditions left the Cloud ninja trapped inside completely helpless with no chance of resistance.
"Darn it, are we really going to die here? This feels so unfair..."
"So this is the monster A-sama and Killer B are facing... Such power is absolutely horrifying."
"Damn you, Mirai Uchiha! Is there anyone who can save us now?!"
Just as the Cloud ninja were losing hope, a massive beam of light shot into the sky, blasting a huge opening through the Forest Enclosure.
Right after that, a large cat demon covered in eerie blue flames emerged from the burning forest.
A hole was torn open in the furnace-like enclosure. The Cloud ninja who were still mobile finally found their lifeline and rushed out like madmen.
"Roar!"
The cat demon let out a long, loud roar toward the heavens. A pitch-black chakra sphere appeared above its mouth.
The chakra ball emitted unparalleled terrifying energy, compressing itself from big to small until reaching maximum density.
Boom!
The Tailed Beast Ball released by Two-Tails charged straight at Mirai Uchiha, instantly swallowing him up.
The enormous explosion caused the earth itself to tremble slightly, reducing everything nearby to dust.
"Gulp... It's Two-Tails! This must be Lady Yugito's doing!"
"With Mirai Uchiha taking a direct hit from a Tailed Beast Ball, he must be dead for sure, right?"
"He's finished. No one could possibly survive taking a direct hit from a Tailed Beast Ball!"
With hopeful gazes, the Cloud ninja watched as the smoke gradually cleared away.
Mirai Uchiha's silhouette reappeared before everyone's eyes.
His clothes remained untouched, though cracks covered his basic-level Susanoo armor surrounding his body.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
With a crisp sound, the outer shell of his Susanoo shattered and dispersed.
Seeing this scene, despair immediately showed on the faces of every Cloud ninja present.
He took a direct hit from a Tailed Beast Ball and walked away fine...
Is this man even human anymore?!
Every surviving Cloud ninja wore expressions of complete despair.
If he could block a Tailed Beast Ball without any damage at all, who could possibly hurt Mirai Uchiha?
At that moment, two flashes—a blue and a red bolt of lightning—charged forward simultaneously from opposite directions.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived right in front of Mirai Uchiha.
[Lightning Release: Lightning Tackle!]
A (the Raikage) and B let out simultaneous battle cries, their thick arms bulging with muscle as veins twisted like exposed roots.
After charging at full power across a long distance, both had pushed their strength and speed to the absolute limit!
Boom!
Both of their arms slammed into Mirai Uchiha's neck in unison, unleashing a shockwave that sent massive clouds of dust spiraling into the air.
"He's been hit! Mirai Uchiha actually got hit!"
"Great! That guy Mirai Uchiha is definitely dead now."
"The ultimate joint attack from Raikage-sama and B-sama — [Lightning Tackle] — must've torn his head clean off!"
"Hahahaha… Cloud has been saved! Mirai Uchiha finally paid the price for his arrogance!"
The ninjas from Kumogakure wore expressions of pure joy.
Even though Mirai Uchiha had just endured a direct hit from a Tailed Beast Ball without injury, they still found it impossible to believe he could survive the full force of A and B's [Lightning Tackle].
After all… the reason he had resisted the Tailed Beast Ball was solely due to Susanoo's protection.
And yet they had clearly seen it strike this time — the Lightning Tackle landed directly on Mirai Uchiha's neck.
No matter how strong Mirai Uchiha was, the frailty of the human body meant he shouldn't have survived at all!
However, as the dust began to clear, every ninja from Kumogakure stood frozen in stunned silence.
On the battlefield ahead, A and B had deep flushes across their faces. Their arms were locked around Mirai Uchiha's neck like a vice,
Yet no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't force their grip even an inch further.
"Shikotsumyaku... (Dead-Bone Pulse)..."
A clenched his teeth until they nearly shattered, staring at the layer of white bone covering Mirai Uchiha's neck.
The moment Susanoo shattered earlier, he and B had instinctively launched a joint attack against Mirai Uchiha using their longstanding battle synchronization.
When their arms connected with his neck, both felt a surge of excitement within their hearts.
They originally believed they'd landed a killing blow, but never expected him to actually use his own neck to block their ultimate technique!
Was this guy even human anymore?
Could he possibly have no weaknesses at all?!
"You have courage challenging me, which is impressive — though I can only commend you for that one aspect.
Because challenging a god? That's not courage — it's sheer stupidity."
Under everyone's shocked gazes, Mirai Uchiha easily pried apart A and B's arms with both hands.
Then, in a flash, two brutal kicks struck — one for each of them.
Blood erupted into the air as the explosive force hurled both men backward in an instant.
Mirai Uchiha tossed the two severed arms to the ground like a merciless war deity drenched in blood — a vision straight from the depths of hell.
The visual shockwave left the ninjas of Kumogakure utterly stunned.
A and B had been defeated in a way they could never have imagined!
Spitting out large mouthfuls of blood, A twisted his body and struggled to rise from the ground.
In his eyes were mixed emotions—fear, resentment, regret, and confusion...
All these feelings combined into one last sentence forced through gritted teeth.
"U-U-Uchiha... Mi-Mirai..."
Bang!
Before he could finish speaking, A's strong body collapsed heavily to the ground.
[Ding! Congratulations, Master! Successfully obtained reward: Lightning Release Chakra Mode!]
Hearing the System's voice echoing in his mind, Mirai Uchiha knew that A was truly dead.
That single kick moments ago had shattered his internal organs completely.
Without the incredible defensive power of the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, he would have been torn clean through.
The fact that he managed to get back up before dying showed amazing strength and willpower.
"Aniki!!!"
Feeling A's death, B roared furiously.
For the first time in his life consumed by rage beyond reason, he immediately entered his full Eight-Tails transformation.
His eight thick tails slammed heavily onto the ground. Without hesitation, he immediately formed a massive Tailed Beast Ball right in front of his mouth.
"Not good!"
The moment everyone from Kumogakure saw this, they paled in terror.
If B fired the Tailed Beast Ball from this position, they'd all be caught in its devastating blast radius!
