Chapter 104: Lightning Release, Full Power Stimulation
So fast!
Alex was startled.
Killer B's speed was even faster than he had imagined.
With the dual enhancements of Lightning Release and the Tailed Beast Cloak, his figure streaked past Konan like a beam of light.
If she hadn't subconsciously turned sideways, it wouldn't have been just her arm that was severed, but her entire upper body.
Konan remained expressionless, raising her right shoulder to look at the severed point.
Wisps of electricity were flashing across the wound, preventing it from healing.
Waves of numbness radiated from the injury.
Her paper body still found it difficult to completely withstand physical attacks imbued with chakra attributes.
She possessed all five basic nature transformations now, but she hadn't had time to learn Lightning Release yet.
But Alex knew it!
He had mastered all basic Lightning Release ninjutsu.
Superimposed with his understanding and control of the body through Dark Medical Ninjutsu, he could unleash an even stronger effect.
He quickly purged the lightning from the severed arm.
Sheets of white paper swarmed over the wound, and the severed arm grew back, visible to the naked eye, restoring it to its original state.
Alex controlled a piece of white paper to float in front of Konan:
[Konan, Killer B's speed is too fast. Use the Sharingan's insight. Additionally, I will use Lightning Release chakra to stimulate your cells to enhance your reaction time and speed.]
Sasuke Uchiha used Lightning Release to stimulate his cells and had the amplification of the Cursed Mark, yet his physical reaction speed still struggled to keep up with Killer B.
Konan only had a three-tomoe Sharingan.
However, Alex's Lightning Release stimulation on her would be far more explosive than what Sasuke used, and the amplification would be greater.
Konan already possessed the Uzumaki and Shikotsumyaku (Dead Bone Pulse) bloodlines, making her physical durability far superior to Sasuke's.
Coupled with the healing effects of Dark Medical Ninjutsu, her cells could withstand a much higher intensity of Lightning Release chakra stimulation.
Using electricity to increase neural transmission speed accelerated signal delivery, thereby improving reaction speed.
At the same time, her physical vitality was enhanced, making her lighter.
Internal and external factors combined to amplify her speed simultaneously.
Crackle!
Wisps of blue-white electricity emerged from every pore on Konan's body.
Her purple-blue hair danced without wind.
Waves of slight stinging pain and numbness surged from within her body.
Under Alex's meticulous control, the Lightning Release chakra evenly and consistently stimulated every body part and every single cell.
It drastically enhanced their activity levels.
Under such a quantity of electrical stimulation, the cells should have withered and died rapidly.
But a stream of chakra filled with healing and life attributes constantly nourished the cells.
This allowed them to remain safe and sound while maintaining extreme levels of activity.
Konan instantly felt her body become several times lighter, with endless vitality and energy surging from within.
Opposite her, Killer B was completely wrapped in the red Tailed Beast Cloak.
He delivered a heavy punch, smashing into the white-blue ice sphere.
It instantly shattered into five pieces, sending ice chips flying.
Dodai immediately cancelled the Rubber Ball, finally breaking free.
"B! Be careful! The opponent is the Akatsuki's White Tiger. She is powerful, do not be careless!"
C immediately provided intel: "White Tiger's abilities are very strange. She has a three-tomoe Sharingan and Ice Release. You must be careful!"
Killer B nodded silently.
He waved his hand, signaling the two to retreat.
The upcoming battle was not something they could participate in.
Beneath his sunglasses, his eyes swept over the frozen Anbu on the ground one by one, the killing intent on his face growing thicker.
The Anbu force was nearly annihilated.
Yugito Nii and Matatabi had also been captured by the Akatsuki. This debt of hatred had to be paid in blood!
"Now is Killer Bee's killing time!"
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Killer B suddenly flung out the seven swords he carried on his back and charged forward like a cannonball.
He leaped into mid-air.
Using various parts of his body, he caught all seven swords simultaneously, wielding them with extreme agility.
Cold light flashed explosively, and the blades howled!
The seven swords slashed toward Konan's vital points from various inconceivable angles simultaneously.
Not only were the blades infused with Lightning Release chakra to increase their sharpness and speed, but they were also wrapped in the Tailed Beast Cloak, giving them immense power and weight!
Konan instantly activated her Sharingan.
The blue lightning on her body surface retracted; the Lightning Release stimulation was complete.
Holding a chilling ice sword in each hand, she moved to intercept the incoming Killer B!
The opponent's speed was extremely fast.
Under the blood-red vision of the three-tomoe Sharingan, she could only see a blurred figure and the approximate trajectory of the seven incoming blades.
But her body's cells, under Alex's deep-level Lightning Release stimulation, now possessed a reaction speed greater than what the three-tomoe eye could track.
She could keep up with Killer B's extreme speed!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
In a split second.
Konan stood in place, her ice swords wielding so fast they left behind a dense wall of afterimages.
She clashed with Killer B over a hundred times.
Ice chips flew, cold air swirled, and sword qi erupted.
The ground beneath their feet shattered layer by layer under the massive impact and sharp blade glows.
Killer B was simply inhuman!
He was worthy of being a master of kenjutsu.
Aside from the swords in his hands, the five swords held by other parts of his body showed no lag whatsoever.
They were just as agile as his hands.
Although Konan could keep up with Killer B's speed, blocking the swords in his hands was her limit.
She didn't have the mental energy to deal with the remaining five swords.
Fortunately, she had Alex!
She only needed to focus fully on offense; she left all defense to Alex.
The other five swords swung by Killer B slashed toward Konan's heart, head, side, and other vital areas simultaneously.
But every time a hit was about to land, a layer of thick ice would emerge at just the right moment.
Blocking the blade edges, preventing them from advancing an inch, and ensuring no damage was done.
The more Killer B attacked, the more shocked he became, his expression growing heavy.
This was the first enemy who could calmly cope with his kenjutsu without taking a single injury.
Clearly, he was attacking with seven swords at once, and the opponent could only block two, yet he couldn't overwhelm her.
Even when he used the tails of the Tailed Beast Cloak to launch sneak attacks from behind under the Eight-Tails' control, he couldn't succeed.
It wasn't just that the opponent had eyes in the back of her head; it seemed as if she had eyes all over her body.
No matter how tricky or unexpected the angle of attack, it was always blocked in the end.
"B!" Inside the mental space, the Eight-Tails warned:
"This enemy is very troublesome. She seems capable of multitasking. I'm afraid your kenjutsu won't cause her any trouble."
"Moreover, her mastery of Lightning Release appears to be no worse than yours. No, her cellular stimulation goes even deeper than yours."
But how was that possible?
The Eight-Tails was very confused.
How could anyone withstand such deep electrical stimulation?
Any ordinary person would have long been paralyzed by the electricity, their cells suffering massive necrosis.
Even his host, Killer B, only achieved his current Lightning Release mastery after years of adaptation and the assistance of his Tailed Beast chakra.
Not to mention, this enemy seemed to have eyes all over her body, able to block attacks from any direction.
In battle, does a person really have enough mental energy to do so many things at once?
Killer B was equally puzzled.
But in the heat of battle, there was no time to think deeply.
He could only attack the enemy with faster and more ferocious offensives.
On the field.
Konan and Killer B moved at extreme speeds.
On the perimeter, Dodai and C couldn't see their figures clearly at all.
The sound of metal clashing rang out across the entire field.
Before it stopped in one spot, it rang out in another.
Their speeds had exceeded the limits of their vision.
Dodai looked horrified. "How can someone keep up with Killer B on speed alone..."
This... was inconceivable.
What Kumogakure had always prided itself on was Lightning Release and speed.
Aside from the former Minato Namikaze and the current Raikage.
Who else in the entire ninja world had speed comparable to Killer B?
