Chapter 160 Intercepting Nuclear Bombs
boom! ! !
The shockwave continued to spread outwards.

By the time it reached the outer perimeter of Mount Koya, the wind had become strong enough for ordinary people to withstand.

However, the ever-expanding clouds in the distance and the hollows through which sunlight streamed in left the Self-Defense Forces and Foreign Legion, who had launched a counterattack, looking at each other in bewilderment.

"What is that?"

"Could it be... a nuclear weapon?"

Wait a minute, what about the classic high-temperature fireball and the iconic mushroom cloud of nuclear weapons?

call out------

Just as the many Self-Defense Force soldiers stopped in their tracks, a long howl came from the direction of the explosion.

Before they could react, a huge roar sounded beside them; the earth shook violently, and they lost their footing, falling flat on their faces.

???

"Shelling?!"

"Could it be an earthquake?"

"Earth-based extraordinary abilities?"

Caught off guard, the soldier scrambled to his feet, shook off the dirt, and turned to see a huge crater, seemingly created by something.

Several daring Self-Defense Force soldiers raised their guns, walked to the edge of the pit, and looked down:

"General Kafka?!"

That's right,

Like a shooting star crashing into the center of the Self-Defense Forces, it was Kafka who had just struggled to climb out of the deep pit.

"Cough cough,"

At the bottom of the pit, just as he was about to stand up, he swayed and half-knelt down again.

Kafka spat out a mouthful of foul blood, feeling a wave of emptiness in his limbs, as if this body no longer belonged to him.

"General Lu?"

"We're here to help you."

Around the huge crater, soldiers of the Self-Defense Force slid rapidly down the crater walls, taking a few steps forward to try and help Kafka up, but the moment they touched his body:

"Ah~~!"

"It's so hot—"

Even while wearing tactical gloves, the soldiers were so burned that they instinctively shook their hands and stepped back.

Only then did they notice the rising high-temperature steam.

"Need not,"

Kafka raised his hand to stop the soldiers from moving, and finally stood up.

"Lord Ibaraki, please lend me your power."

Your body has reached its limit.

However, the left side of Kafka's face refused without hesitation.

"General Kafka, please follow me."

The soldiers on the battlefield had contacted the rear and were gathering from all directions to dissuade them.

You need to rest.

"No, I still have things I haven't finished."

Having regained some of his strength, Kafka stepped out again and walked towards the edge of the pit.

Those extraordinary individuals, and these ordinary soldiers, all entered this battlefield because they believed in him. As the initiator of this battle, how could he, and absolutely could not, back down!
Even if it means death, it must be in battle.

Since you insist...

Seemingly moved by Kafka's will, a new power flowed into his body.

"Then let's embark on the path of Asura!"

Koyasan core area

"Cough cough,"

"How many people are left? Please reply."

"Please reply upon receipt."

Climbing out of the mud, Iori tried to confirm the damage via communicator, but the silence without any response made her slap her helmet hard.

"What kind of garbage communicator is this? It can't even withstand this little bit of aftershock?!"

After venting her anger, she looked up and surveyed her surroundings.

What we see here is not just 'the aftermath'; as far as the eye can see, the entire mountain has been razed to the ground, a scene of utter devastation, unrecognizable from its former state. Only amidst the rubble and ruins, are figures swaying as they rise to their feet.

Yagyu Isao, protected by the 'Fudo Myoo statue' of the monk Shio,
Three powered armor units were carried in the mouth of a giant three-headed dog; and Saito Suke was covered in armor.
Overall, the government does not appear to have suffered significant losses.

but--

"Where is General Kafka?"

An exceptional SWAT officer looked around and instinctively shouted out a reality that no one else wanted to face.

Kafka is gone.

And that guy named 'Hyuga Toneri' is still around!
The despair in everyone's eyes made the white-haired boy, who had lowered his hand, sigh.

"pity,"

"After all, it's not the real great demon 'Ibaraki,' but just a human possessing a body."

"Ha, if you're not satisfied."

The 'blood-stained khaki' floated over and gave a cold laugh.

“After you are resurrected, we will charge into Takamagahara again: there are countless gods there who can put you in a tough fight.”

Takamagahara is said to have 'eight million gods,' but apart from the three noble children and a few others, most of them are just pretenders. There are even beings like 'toilet gods' and 'poverty gods,' so it's not impossible for them to conquer Takamagahara.

Okita Tenga
Just as the extraordinary beings scattered within hundreds of meters were speechless, Blood Hakka suddenly turned his head, revealing a white face covering with the number 'Three' written on it, facing the crowd.

"Before that, let's deal with these ants."

"That's your job,"

Hyuga Toneri seemed to disdain dealing with these 'low-level' superhumans, and he didn't seem to care about the 'blood-stained hakama' either.

"This farce must end."

? !
As the 'blood-stained hakama' slowly drifted towards them, and as the 'demon warriors,' 'dried-up ninjas,' and 'skeletal onmyoji' rose to their feet from the mountain ruins, a sense of helplessness and despair crept onto their faces. 'Tsk, a clay pot is bound to break at the well, and a general is bound to die on the battlefield.'

After reciting a famous line from an ancient novel, Iori Kazuka stretched her limbs, and a series of clicking noises came from her power armor.

"Holy Son, how about we have a contest to see who kills more enemies before they die?"

"Sorry, sir."

The mature policewoman next to him, also wearing power armor, shook her head slightly.

"I'm not really interested in fighting."

It's okay~~
It's enough that Mayi didn't participate in this operation.

For Fuji Seiko, death was nothing to fear: when she chose the job of a 'police officer,' she was prepared to face her own funeral.

But a naive girl like Mai shouldn't participate in such a cruel battlefield.

Unfortunately, the island nation may not be peaceful in the future.

"Amitabha,"

Zhixiong, trembling uncontrollably, instinctively took a step back.
Even Kafka Lu Jiang... Can he win? Impossible, the two powerful demons on the other side show no signs of injury.

What should I do?
run!
Let's get out of here, and then figure out what to do.
"Hai Ren, have you had enough fun?"

Not in a hurry to eliminate these superhumans who had lost their will to fight, Blood Hakama turned to look in the other direction.

The Isogai siblings were unharmed: when Kafka and Hyuga Toneri exchanged blows, Kainin created a shadow that engulfed the two children.

"I know you can't let go of those two disciples,"

'Blood Hakama' pointed at Isoya Dai and Isoya Kaoru.

"I will not make things difficult for you,"

"Let them join my master's ranks."

? !
They actually tried to persuade him to surrender on the battlefield, but...
"Master, if only I could be with you—"

Raising her hand to stop the short-haired woman, Igarashi Dai, from speaking, Kainin spoke calmly.

"A vow made under duress will only blossom into betrayal."

“You don’t need to do anything for me.”

"master?"

But we entered this battlefield for your sake!

The extraordinary forces are on the verge of destruction:
"Ok?"

"Something's coming."

Hyuga Toneri looked up at the sky.

Even during his time as a genin, Hyuga Neji was able to detect anything, big or small, within a kilometer radius.

The white eye of this clone can easily observe hundreds of kilometers away: naturally, it also 'saw' a missile hurtling towards it at ten times the speed of sound.

In fact, the visual range limit of a normal person's eyes is generally within 10 to 12 kilometers: of course, it's just that they can see, and it's completely incomparable to the ability to see everything with a white eye.

?

Amidst the puzzled gazes of the others, Hyuga Toneri raised his hand.

Even a hypersonic missile traveling at Mach 10 would take half a minute to reach that distance.

That's enough.
"Eight Trigrams - Mountain-Breaking Strike -"

With a single palm strike, the condensed chakra shot out like a giant laser beam into the distant sky.

This is Hyuga Neji's ninjutsu, which unleashes highly concentrated chakra from his palm, a terrifying attack capable of piercing mountains in a single blow. Combined with the Byakugan's superhuman vision, it can even be used to intercept a nuclear bomb single-handedly!

Thump,

A small flame suddenly burst forth in the distant sky.

If everyone present hadn't been extraordinary, they wouldn't have even noticed the strange phenomenon in the sky.

But in reality, the missile that was shot down by Hyuga Toneri with a single palm strike was actually carrying a nuclear warhead.

Nuclear bombs are not something you need to worry about easily 'exploding', because both nuclear fusion and nuclear fission require extremely extreme environments to produce them.

Therefore, the nuclear bomb that was blasted into dust by Hyuga Toneri's Mountain Breaker would only produce a small burst of flame due to the propellant: a nuclear bomb that did not detonate was nothing more than a lump of metal.

Could it be.
Many quick-witted people also realized what was happening.

Then his face turned very pale.

It's a nuclear bomb!
On one hand, if the nuclear bomb were to fall, they would likely perish without a trace; on the other hand, this 'Hyuga Toneri' was actually able to intercept the nuclear bomb with his bare hands.
No wonder 'Blood Hakama' chose to revive him first; it turns out he was the ultimate weapon to deal with the government!
"With strength this great, won't the gods intervene?"

Iori Kazuka was at a loss for words to refute.
And in the distant sky—

Missiles continued to fly in.

The dark clouds in the sky dissipated because of the earlier clash of fists and palms.

Numerous satellites, Starlink satellites, and high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft that had already altered their orbits were all aimed at this void: naturally, they also 'saw' the desperate superhumans, the unharmed enemy demons, and the scene of the nuclear missiles that had just been launched being intercepted by the enemy from tens of thousands of meters away by some means.

The authorities who launched the nuclear missiles were clearly panicked and launched a large number of missiles again:

This time, they mixed nuclear weapons into conventional missiles.

“A boring trick,”

With a series of quick flicks of his wrists, beams of chakra shot out like lasers, precisely detonating the missiles in the distance!

The Hyuga clan's bloodline is naturally very strong. If there's a weakness, it's the common problem of the 'eye clan': a lack of chakra.

Of course, this so-called deficiency is compared to those 'Chatura' clans. Once this weakness is made up, they will immediately take off: for example, Boruto, who evolved his Byakugan into the Jōgan and possesses the physique of the Uzumaki clan, can withstand the pursuit of the entire ninja world while fighting against the forces under the Otsutsuki clan.

Its level of suffering would put Payne on a second-place list.

The Crown Prince's other daughter, Himawari Uzumaki, was able to create Tailed Beast Balls with her hair at the age of twelve, defeating enemies with Rinnegan. This demonstrates the terrifying power of her bloodline.

With the Divine Tree present, there is virtually no possibility of chakra depletion for Yu, showcasing the formidable strength of the Bloodstained Clan.

"It's never going to end."

Missiles continued to fly in from afar.
Impatience appeared in the eyes of the boy with white clothes, white hair, and grayish-white pupils.

bang,
With a flick of his sleeve,
A giant white crane appeared on the battlefield.

"I'll take care of these mortals' weapons; I'll leave this to you."

After saying that, Hyuga Toneri leaped onto the white crane, soared into the sky, and headed towards the direction from which the missile was coming!

The remaining superhumans looked at each other and then...
They all turned around and swung their legs.

Run!
