Within the dark clouds, countless thick, blue-white electric snakes roamed, collided, and accumulated world-destroying energy!
The air became unusually heavy, filled with violent electrical charges that made one's hair stand on end!
"This is……?!"
Kusuna stared at the sky in horror.
A deathly premonition, even stronger than being trapped in the inferno of thunder and fire, gripped his heart.
"No! Get out of here!"
Sakura's expression changed drastically.
She remembered that the two of them had done the same thing in the Forest of Death!
The moment I recalled.
Without hesitation, she grabbed the still-dazed Tassel with her left hand.
With his right arm around Shion, who was slightly widening her eyes in surprise at the strange phenomenon in the sky, he unleashed a burst of chakra from beneath his feet!
A shallow pit was created in the ground as Sakura carried the two of them like an arrow released from a bow.
They instantly retreated hundreds of meters, moving away from the core area where lightning and fire intertwined and directly below where the darkest clouds were densest!
"Naruto! Sasuke! Watch out!"
Sakura's voice carried a hint of barely perceptible anxiety.
Chapter 232 Ambush Backfires, Team Wiped Out
Despite Sakura's calls, Naruto and Sasuke, high above, seemed not to hear her.
One of them stood on a rock that was illuminated by flames, making it resemble a lava giant, while the other stood atop another boulder shrouded in lightning.
The wind howled, whipping their robes and hair.
Naruto's eyes were sharp as an eagle's, his azure pupils reflecting the raging inferno of lightning and the desperate enemy.
His right hand was raised high.
A chakra sphere, radiating blinding white light, spinning at high speed, and with countless sharp wind blades extending from its edges, had already taken shape—
It is the ultimate technique that combines the nature transformation of Wind Release—Wind Release: Rasenshuriken!
A raging hurricane howled wildly, centered on the shuriken.
It even tore and attracted the flames at the edge of the Thunderfire Purgatory below!
The blazing orange flames, as if drawn by an invisible giant hand, continuously flowed into the rapidly spinning white wind blades!
The wind helps the fire, and the fire uses the power of the wind!
The blinding white light was instantly tinged with a violent orange-red!
A fiery Rasenshuriken, exuding an aura of destruction and surging in size like a miniature sun, roared into Naruto's hand and was born!
The spinning, fiery wind blades sliced through the air, emitting a chilling, piercing shriek!
The terrifying energy fluctuations distorted even space itself!
Meanwhile, on the other side, Sasuke's crimson three-tomoe Sharingan was locked onto the rolling thunderclouds in the sky!
His left hand was raised high, and in his palm, a highly concentrated, hissing and roaring Thousand Birds Lightning was like the most dazzling star!
The raging lightning seemed to be the fuse connecting heaven and earth!
"Roar--!!!"
A deafening roar, seemingly from the depths of the primordial chaos, erupted from the depths of the dark clouds!
Under the precise guidance of Sasuke's Sharingan and the intense attraction of Chidori Lightning.
The violent natural lightning, which had accumulated to its peak in the dark clouds and was powerful enough to destroy mountains, was forcibly restrained and reshaped!
A colossal, sky-covering, ferocious thunder beast, the Qilin, composed entirely of destructive lightning.
Its majestic and terrifying head emerged from the rolling dark clouds!
The enormous beastly eyes were entirely composed of leaping blue-white arcs of electricity, filled with indifference towards mortal ants and a desire for destruction!
"This attack is for those Demon Country guards you killed!"
Naruto roared, his body like a fully drawn bowstring.
Suddenly, he thrust the flaming spiral shuriken, which resembled a miniature sun, towards the center of the Thunderfire Purgatory—
The three of them, Kusuna and his companions, were thrown out with tremendous force!
"With thunderous roar! Die!"
Sasuke's icy voice was like the pronouncement of death, and his raised left hand, like a sword of judgment, swung down resolutely towards the three desperate people below!
Awooo—!!!
The thunderous beast Qilin in the sky let out a roar that tore through the heavens, and its enormous lightning body suddenly swooped down from the dark clouds!
It is not a physical entity, yet it carries a more terrifying pressure than any physical entity!
Wherever it passed, the air was ionized, creating a vacuum channel and producing a deafening sonic boom!
The violent lightning illuminated the dark sky as if it were daytime!
Below, there was a Flame Rasenshuriken that combined Naruto's immense chakra, the ultimate cutting technique of Wind Release, and the raging flames of Lightning Fire Purgatory.
Like a falling red comet, trailing a long, fiery tail, it hurtles toward its target with the will to shatter everything!
Rumble, rumble—!!! ...
Time seemed to stretch out infinitely at this moment.
The flaming spiral shuriken and the diving thunderous beast Qilin, one above and one below.
With the power to destroy the world, it appeared in the utterly desperate gazes of Kusuna, Setsuna, and Shizuku.
Under Sasuke's precise guidance down to the millisecond, they collided violently at the very center of the Thunderfire Purgatory!
That wasn't a simple collision!
That was—an annihilation fusion!
The raging flames and cutting power of the Flame Spiral Shuriken were instantly injected into the pure destructive lightning body of the Thunder Beast Qilin!
The endless heavenly might and thunder carried by the Qilin seemed to have found an outlet, and it surged wildly into the core of the Spiral Shuriken!
Sizzle—Boom!!!!
A terrifying energy storm, indescribable in words, erupted at the point of impact!
A sphere of incandescent white light, over a hundred meters in diameter and impossible to look at directly, expanded instantly!
Inside the sphere of light is an ultimate mixture of high temperatures, hurricanes, flames, and lightning so violent they could tear apart atomic structures!
All sound was swallowed up, leaving only a dull hum that seemed to freeze the soul, as if the foundation of the world had shattered!
The area covered by the light sphere.
Whether it's the inferno created by Naruto, or the riverbed, rocks, or even the rushing river...
All matter vanished the instant it touched the edge of the sphere of light!
It was not destroyed, it was not melted.
Instead, it vanished completely and silently, as if erased by an eraser!
It left behind a huge, bowl-shaped crater that was incredibly smooth, like a mirror!
The figures of Kusuna, Setsuna, and Shizuku appeared the instant the blazing white orb appeared.
Like snowflakes thrown into a furnace, they couldn't even utter a scream.
It completely melted into that pure white space that represented absolute destruction!
Their chakra, flesh and blood, bones, will... all traces of their existence.
They were all completely wiped out by this destructive power that transcended the realm of ninjutsu!
The sphere of incandescent light lasted for what felt like an eternity for several seconds before slowly contracting inward and dimming.
When the blinding light finally dissipated, the scene left behind made Sakura, Azusa, and Shion, who had already retreated to a safe distance, all gasp in shock!
The riverbank... disappeared.
Instead, there is a huge, glassy pit with a diameter of over 100 meters, a depth of tens of meters, and smooth, mirror-like edges!
The pit walls and bottom exhibit a strange material resembling black glass, formed by being instantly melted by extreme high temperatures and then rapidly cooled.
It reflected a cold, eerie light in the dim daylight.
At the center of the crater, a few thin, leaping blue-white arcs of electricity and dark red sparks still remain.
Like the lingering breath of a giant beast, it made a hissing sound.
No bodies, no remains, no ashes... nothing at all.
There was only a desolate, smooth, and still-warm wasteland.
The air was much thinner, carrying a pungent smell of ozone mixed with lava.
Naruto and Sasuke landed on the edge of the giant pit, slightly out of breath.
Naruto looked at his "masterpiece" and clicked his tongue: "Wow... there's not even ashes left now, so... we probably don't need to collect the body, right?"
He turned to Sasuke, grinned, and said, "Not bad, Sasuke!"
Sasuke silently deactivated his Sharingan: "Not bad."
"The knot... is over?"
Ashiho's voice trembled with disbelief.
Looking at that giant crater that resembled a land of divine punishment, my legs felt weak.
His own death, as foretold in the prophecy, did not come, but his enemy was wiped out in such a thorough way.
Shion's purple eyes were fixed on the devastated land, then suddenly turned to Naruto.
