With a subtle shift in his footwork, he narrowly avoided Kusuna's deadly claw attack.
At the same time, his body bent backward like a supple willow branch, allowing Banner's powerful punch to graz his nose!
With lightning speed, his left hand shot out and precisely grabbed Shizuku's wrist as she released the wind blade, twisting it forcefully!
Shizuku let out a muffled groan, and the wind blades instantly dissipated!
In that instant, Naruto turned around without anyone noticing.
His right hand was enveloped in powerful chakra, allowing him to strike first even when he was behind.
A simple, unadorned straight punch, accompanied by a terrifying sonic boom, slammed into the arms that were hastily blocking in an instant!
"boom!!!"
A loud bang that was extremely dull!
In that instant, I felt an irresistible force, like a torrent of water, coming from my arms!
His proud defenses were torn apart in an instant, like paper!
He was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the hard rock wall, sending shards of rock flying!
A piercing pain shot through both arms; they were clearly fractured!
The contempt on Kusuna, Banner, and Shizuku's faces instantly turned into horror!
Just one glance!
The one among the four most skilled in speed and assassination, was crippled by a single punch from this seemingly reckless blond kid?!
"This kid...something's fishy! Let's all attack!"
Kusuna shouted sternly, no longer daring to be arrogant!
Dark energy instantly covered his entire body, forming a ferocious energy armor!
Banner roared, his muscles bulging and his skin gleaming with a metallic sheen!
Shizuku quickly formed hand seals, and a whirlwind surrounded her!
The three pounced again, their attack even more fierce and ruthless than before!
Dark energy claws, massive metal fists, and vacuum wind blades that tear through the air.
Intertwined into a web of death!
But at this moment, Naruto was like an elf dancing in a storm!
Every movement and every energy fluctuation of the other party was crystal clear to him!
He either dodges, blocks, or counters with greater speed and strength!
The dull thuds of punches landing, the crisp cracking of bones breaking, and the booming of colliding energies echoed continuously within the narrow passage!
Kusuna's energy claws were forcefully cleaved apart by Naruto's chakra-infused hand chop, leaving Kusuna's arm numb from the impact.
Banner's massive fist, powerful enough to split mountains and shatter rocks, was seemingly casually kicked in the wrist by Naruto.
The immense force caused Banner's massive body to stagger.
Shizuku's wind blades were easily dispersed by Naruto's Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!
The three became increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed!
They discovered that their pride and joy lay in their strength and ninjutsu.
In front of this blond boy, they seemed so clumsy and powerless!
Their strength, speed, defense, and reaction time completely overwhelmed them!
Kusuna made a decisive decision!
If the fight continues, all four of them will probably die here today!
This monster that suddenly appeared is ridiculously strong!
Upon receiving the order, Banner and Shizuku did not hesitate and immediately withdrew.
Shizuku also threw out a few smoke bombs in an attempt to block Naruto's view.
Kusuna rushed towards the moment he was knocked away and helped him up.
Naruto's eyes turned cold as he looked at the billowing smoke and the rapidly retreating enemy: "Trying to run?"
He moved his feet, ready to give chase!
However, just as he burst through the hole in the ceiling he had smashed and landed on a relatively open platform outside the fortress—
"Earth Escape - Earth Cave Rock!"
"Wind and Fire Release: Incineration of the Fiery Prison!"
Shizuku and Banner, who had been lying in ambush, simultaneously launched their long-planned ninjutsu!
The ground beneath Naruto's feet instantly rose up, transforming into several tall earthen walls.
At the same time, above their heads, the violent hurricane released by Shizuku merged instantly with the blazing fire dragon spewed by Banner.
In an instant, it transformed into a fiery storm that covered an area of tens of meters in radius, with a temperature high enough to melt steel.
It slammed down on Naruto, who was stuck in the mud with nowhere to hide!
"Hmph! A little trick!"
However, Naruto, who was below, showed no panic whatsoever in the face of this fatal blow.
He quickly formed a hand seal in front of his chest, a simple yet powerful movement – the Noon Seal!
This is one of the starting techniques for unleashing a large-scale fire jutsu!
"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation—!!!"
Chapter 225 Death Prophecy! You will die!
Naruto took a deep breath, his chest bulging like a bellows! The next moment, an unimaginable burst of orange-red flames, like a volcanic eruption, with a terrifying power capable of burning everything in its path, surged out of his mouth!
The flames were no longer ordinary chakra flames, but a sea of flames formed from pure and vast chakra!
Its scale, its temperature, and its destructive energy far exceeded Shizuku and Banner's understanding!
boom--! ! !
It was like a raging sea crashing against a fragile dam!
Naruto's powerful fire breath instantly engulfed and annihilated the "Infernal Prison of Annihilation" that Shizuku and Banner had jointly unleashed!
That seemingly mighty firestorm pales in comparison to a real sea of fire.
Like a match thrown into a furnace, it didn't even create a ripple!
The blazing fire showed no signs of abating.
Like a raging dragon ready to destroy the world, it swept away the earthen wall that bound Naruto with overwhelming force.
A large number of the pulverized stones were melted by the high temperature before they even hit the ground!
The aftershocks of the raging flames shot skyward, heading straight for Shizuku and Banner in mid-air!
"What?!!"
Shizuku and Banner's pupils instantly shrank to pinpoints!
His face was filled with extreme horror and disbelief!
Their prized combination ninjutsu was completely defeated by a single opponent's fire-style ninjutsu...
They were routed head-on?!
Moreover, the scale and power of that fire jutsu...
That's absolutely monstrous!
A wave of heat, hot enough to instantly turn them to ashes, rushed towards them!
The shadow of death loomed over them in an instant!
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!!!"
Kusuna's screams came from afar, filled with fear and despair.
Supporting his injured arm, he fled for his life into the depths of the distant forest without looking back!
Shizuku and Banner dared not linger any longer and used their full strength to unleash their Body Flicker Technique.
They transformed into two disheveled black shadows, narrowly escaping the edge of the destructive wave of fire, and frantically fleeing towards Kusuna!
The intense heat of the flames even scorched their hair and the hems of their clothes!
Watching the four disappear into the dense forest like stray dogs, Naruto curled his lip and dissipated the flames in his mouth.
He did not pursue them; his immediate priority was to find the priestess Shion.
Just then, Sasuke and Sakura appeared like ghosts at the edge of the platform.
They had clearly witnessed that shocking scene.
"Naruto! How is he?"
Sakura quickly stepped forward and asked with concern.
Although she saw that Naruto was unharmed, she was still shaken by the terrifying flames she had just witnessed.
Sasuke looked around at the platform that Naruto had almost leveled with his Fire Release attack, and at the edge of the still-burning forest in the distance, his expression calm.
This guy... he's gotten used to it over the past three years.
He looked at Naruto: "Where's the priestess?"
Naruto closed his eyes, and his vast senses once again spread out like a tidal wave.
His keen chakra fluctuations became his best probe, quickly capturing any remaining aura and life force.
"found it!"
Naruto suddenly opened his eyes and pointed east: "It's over there! About 500 meters away!"
