Konoha, reported by the Fourth Hokage at the start.

Chapter 305 One-Hit Kill... Broken

Clang, clang... Amidst the blazing flames, a dozen iron balls fell from the sky and crashed to the side.

The iron ball opened, revealing a bewildered Iwagakure ninja inside, completely unaware of what had just happened.

The Iwagakure ninjas around them stared blankly at the huge, fiery crater ahead.

The sudden and fierce attack silenced the entire battlefield instantly.

Tick

Tick ​​tock!

Blood dripped slowly from his chest. The Third Raikage, standing at the edge of the pit, lowered his head slightly. His chest looked as if it had been grazed by a rapidly falling meteorite, revealing an oval wound that was neither deep nor shallow.

The wound showed no signs of burns, as if it had actually been scratched by a meteorite.

But the Third Raikage was certain that it was a Fire Release: Flame Bullet.

However... the ground in front of the Third Raikage disappeared, replaced by a huge semi-circular crater with a diameter of fifty meters. The rock layers inside had been partially turned into magma due to the high temperature... or rather, the violent collision, and were still emitting sizzling heat.

This deep crater, resembling a meteorite impact, was caused by that head-sized fireball.

It was just a fireball, but its power was no less than that of a small Tailed Beast Ball.

Even... thinking about the goosebumps he felt just now, and the wound on his chest, the Third Raikage felt that the fireball might be even more terrifying than a small Tailed Beast Ball.

If he were hit by that fireball, he would be instantly reduced to ashes.

"Who is it?"

The Third Raikage and the group of Iwagakure ninja looked around, all wanting to know who had launched that attack that was comparable to a Tailed Beast Ball.

Soon, two figures came into view in the sky.

"Those are... Ishii and Ms. Haitsuchi, disciples of the Third Tsuchikage!"

"By the way, the iron ball just now was Miss Haido's unique bloodline limit - Steel Release."

"Could the attack just now have been from Miss Gray Earth...? Wait!"

"Hey, hey, hey, look at the Third Raikage!"

The identities of the Earth Release clones, Ishii and Haitsuchi, were recognized by the Iwagakure ninja. Just as everyone was guessing that the attack was launched by Haitsuchi, the Third Raikage's chest injury was finally discovered.

"This monster is injured!!!"

"That attack injured the monster!"

Upon seeing the blood-stained wound on the Third Raikage's chest, the Iwagakure ninja were both shocked and excited.

The Third Raikage, who had been surrounded and attacked for nearly three hours without breaking through the defenses, finally broke through them.

This meant that the Third Raikage could be killed, and everyone saw hope.

"Shiyan...you..."

Onoki flew over, staring excitedly at his Earth Release clone, Ishii, his eyes gleaming with anticipation and excitement.

Before Shi Yan could say anything, Hui Tu burst into laughter, "Hahaha, that's right, old man, junior brother has successfully developed that ninjutsu."

Earth Release Clone - Shi Yan smiled and nodded: "Mm."

Onoki's old face immediately broke into a wide grin, and he frantically patted his Earth Release clone, Ishii, on the shoulder, "Hahaha, good, great!"

It seems that the attack just now was launched by that brat.

Below, seeing Onoki's excited reaction to his Lightning Release clone, White Fang, the Third Raikage had a sudden realization.

But... what's with that fire jutsu?

Even now, the Third Raikage still can't figure out why a Fire Release: Flame Bullet the size of a human head could possess the terrifying power of a Tailed Beast Ball.

bump!

Before the Third Raikage could think further, his Lightning Release clone, White Fang, suddenly landed twenty meters in front of him.

"Third Raikage, I will be your opponent from now on."

Earth Release Clone - Ishii looked at the wary Third Raikage ahead, smiled slightly, and then his chakra erupted instantly, a heavy sense of oppression bursting forth.

"Very strong!"

The Third Raikage's eyes flashed, and he did not act rashly. He stared at the Lightning Release clone, White Fang, in front of him, remaining secretly vigilant.

"What does Shi Yan want to do?"

"Could it be...?"

The Iwagakure ninjas who were far away did not sense the chakra aura of the Earth Release clone - Ishii. Seeing this, they were unaware of its power and their expressions changed. They were already unhappy with the Earth Release clone - Ishii's avoidance of battle, and now they were even more unhappy with its show of force.

Before they could make a move, the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, gave an order from the sky.

"Everyone, step back and do not enter the battlefield between Ishii and the Third Raikage."

Upon hearing this, the words that the Iwagakure members were about to say were immediately swallowed back down, and they turned to look at the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, with incredulous expressions.

That's the Third Raikage, someone whom 20,000 ninjas couldn't defeat even after nearly three hours of fighting. Can Shi Yan, who's only around 20 years old, really handle facing him alone?

"That's an order," Onoki shouted.

"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage." Despite their confusion, the Iwagakure ninja could only retreat since Onoki had given the order.

"Could it be..." Some Jonin looked at the Earth Release clone - Ishii with a hint of surprise, vaguely guessing that this disciple of the Tsuchikage must have developed the secret ninjutsu that even the Tsuchikage praised.

"Kid, it seems Onoki trusts you a lot."

The Third Raikage glanced at Onoki in the sky, then turned to look at his Earth Release clone, Ishii, and said with a mocking expression, "Did you think you could defeat me by hurting me?"

After saying that, the Third Raikage activated his Lightning Release Chakra Mode instantly, which was his strongest defensive state.

call out!

The Third Raikage stopped talking and instantly covered the twenty-meter distance. The sharp lightning chakra gathered in his One-Handed Sword Technique was like a dagger that could pierce through anything, stabbing towards the chest of his Earth Release clone, Ishii.

So what if the attack is powerful?

Speed ​​is his ultimate weapon for dominating the ninja world!

Seeing that the Earth Release clone, Ishii, was completely unable to react to his attack, the Third Raikage smiled slightly.

However, that smile froze in the next instant.

"Snap!"

The Third Raikage watched as his index finger bent upwards and pressed against the chest of his Earth Release clone, Ishii. It felt like pressing against an incredibly hard wall of steel, and the bone in his index finger was completely shattered.

"How...how is this possible?"

"impossible……"

The Third Raikage looked up, his pupils dilated and trembling, his face filled with disbelief and terror. His strongest spear, the One-Hit Punch, couldn't even pierce the flesh of a mere brat.

How... is this possible?

The Third Raikage was incredulous, and the other Iwagakure ninja who witnessed this scene were also completely dumbfounded.

"this……"

"he……"

"How……"

The group of Iwagakure ninjas wanted to say something, but couldn't think of anything to express their shock. They just stared blankly at the incredible scene in the distance.

That was the One-Hit Spear, known as the strongest spear, an attack that even three thick Lava Release rubber rock walls couldn't stop, only slowing down the Third Raikage's speed.

Now, Shi Yan actually blocked it with his own body. If it weren't for the fact that the Third Raikage was still covered by Lightning Release armor, and if it weren't for the fact that the Third Raikage's index finger was twisted beyond recognition, they would have thought that the Third Raikage was acting.
