Squelch!
Whoosh
Whoosh
"Ah!?"
The forcefully attacking shuriken pierced directly through the bodies or limbs of those three Cloud ninja. Blood splattered, accompanied by miserable screams.
One Cloud ninja died on the spot.
The remaining two, although barely managing to save their lives, were severely injured, leaving a bloody scene on the ground.
"Bastard!"
Seeing this scene, Darui's face became extremely ugly. He knew very well that even if he could escape successfully, all the elite Cloud ninja he brought out this time would perish here.
This far exceeded the expectations before the operation.
Such losses were enough to make their Hidden Cloud Village ache. Remember, these people were either Jonin or Elite Chunin with special abilities. Even with the Hidden Cloud's vast resources, suffering such heavy losses a few more times would be unbearable.
Elites were limited in number!
This wasn't the loss of cannon fodder Genin or older Chunin with no potential.
And it was obvious.
Menma intended not to let anyone go. After killing one Cloud ninja and severely injuring two others, Menma no longer cared about the remaining scraps, handing them directly to his summon beast to deal with.
He kicked off the ground, turning midway, and assaulted directly toward Darui's position.
The Hidden Cloud Village was a destined enemy in all likelihood.
Darui was the most talented young man of this generation in the Hidden Cloud. Killing this guy here would significantly weaken the Hidden Cloud's power!
Menma wouldn't let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Further erupting Nine-Tails chakra.
This terrifying pressure coming head-on.
"!?"
Feeling this suffocating sensation...
Darui's expression turned stern.
It was impossible to hold back anymore; he exploded his remaining chakra directly, covering himself in the "Lightning Release Chakra Mode."
Boom!
From the front.
The two collided head-on.
Bang!
A powerful clash of fist to flesh.
"Hmm!?"
Feeling the power transmitted from the fist, Darui's expression changed accordingly.
"What is this strength!?"
A look of shock uncontrollably flowed in his pupils.
"Heh!"
Menma sneered coldly.
Under the enhancement of the Nine-Tails' chakra, he had specifically learned Tsunade's monstrous strength explosion mode from Orochimaru.
Although he couldn't achieve the terrifying degree of control Tsunade had...
Facing the current Darui...
This was enough to form the most dominant suppression.
Completely irresistible power.
Whoosh!
Bang!
Menma forcibly knocked away Darui's hands, then twisted his body and kicked forcefully, slamming heavily onto Darui's chest.
"!?"
The applied force...
Darui couldn't control himself at all and flew backward.
Bang!
Smashing heavily onto the ground behind. Suffering a second trauma, his abdomen was already somewhat deformed.
Feeling the piercing pain...
Darui couldn't help but spit out a large mouthful of blood, his expression becoming incredibly twisted.
He was far from his peak state, while Menma's strength far exceeded previous expectations. Was this just borrowing a preliminary amount of Tailed Beast chakra!? Why could it be this strong!?
Just this posture was almost as strong as his full power state.
Whoosh!
Watching Menma closing in again...
Darui's face was extremely ugly.
"Storm Style: Laser Circus!"
With a carp kip-up, flipping his body directly, he clapped his hands together, refining chakra rapidly.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
In an instant.
Light and shadow flared.
Several lasers erupted accordingly, assaulting Menma rapidly.
"Hah!"
This was a Kekkei Genkai that ordinary ninjutsu couldn't block and ordinary ninja found hard to react to.
A look of coldness appeared at the corner of Menma's eye.
"Hah!"
With a deep shout.
Nine-Tails chakra erupted again. Four demon fox tails whistled up, further exploding with momentum.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The wildly dancing demon fox tails.
Those four tails actively lunged forward.
Bang!
Bang
Bang
Bang
With the most ferocious posture, they forcefully blocked the assault of those Storm Style lasers head-on. The transmitted residual shock...
Didn't affect Menma at all.
"What!?"
Seeing his prized jutsu blocked by Menma so easily, a look of disbelief flowed in Darui's pupils. Obviously too late to form seals a second time, facing Menma's figure close at hand...
Darui could only rely on his instinctive reaction.
Attempting to dodge directly.
Whoosh!
But Menma had already taken a step ahead, arriving at close range.
"Great Spiralling Ring (Dai Rasenringu)!"
A spiraling chakra sphere of dark, somber colors appeared in his single palm.
Aiming at Darui's vital chest area...
Bang!
Smashing down straight.
The fierce sensation of rotation, the powerful force of vibration.
"Ugh!?"
In an instant.
It felt as if his entire body was blasted apart directly.
Bearing this terrifying pressure...
While Darui's face changed drastically, his body flew backward rapidly like a cannonball.
Bang!
Crack!
Clatter!
Smashing through several large trees continuously before finally landing on the ground.
Boom!
Dragging out a very exaggerated gouge on the ground.
His abdomen completely caved in.
"Blargh!"
A large amount of blood sprayed from his mouth. His aura withered instantly, and his breathing became incredibly disordered and weak in that moment.
His entire body trembled uncontrollably.
Obviously having suffered a fatal blow, Darui could completely sense his vitality draining away rapidly in this moment.
One hit kill!
In the original story, Kabuto Yakushi, as a medical ninja, couldn't withstand a Rasengan blasted head-on by Naruto, let alone Darui bearing Menma's Great Spiralling Ring.
His vitality was almost severed.
Menma walked slowly toward where Darui landed.
And just as Menma defeated this future Fifth Raikage cleanly and neatly, Urushi the lizard on the side also effortlessly killed the remaining three Cloud ninja. Each injured, with two in critical condition, the Cloud ninja couldn't possibly defend against Urushi's attacks.
In less than a few minutes.
The situation was already settled.
Utakata, not far away, also contracted his pupils abruptly, looking at Menma's back with an incredibly solemn expression.
He discovered that he, too, had far underestimated the strength of this Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!
