Naruto: Eating Kaido's Azure Dragon Devil Fruit-Chapter 312 Death.
The killing intent in Sora’s dragon pupils grew even stronger.
’What I lack least right now, is power and chakra.’
His gaze first locked onto Kakuzu, who was the most severely injured.
"Kakuzu, I won’t let you off this time."
"Huh. What do you mean."
Kakuzu on the ground was startled by these words. This is our first meeting.
Sora did not pay attention to Kakuzu. His massive dragon claw rose. Highly compressed lightning release chakra and elemental forces from the air madly gathered. It formed a dark purple lightning spear emitting waves of destruction.
"Lightning Spear."
Sora roared lowly, his dragon claw violently swinging down.
"No."
Kakuzu let out a desperate roar. He felt a lethal threat.
He desperately urged all his remaining Earth Grudge Fear mask monsters and chakra.
But it was all in vain.
Boom.
The lightning spear accurately hit Kakuzu. Instantly piercing through Kakuzu’s body and his remaining Earth Grudge Fear masks.
Puff. Puff.
Two faint sounds rang out.
The light in Kakuzu’s dark green eyes instantly faded. His last two hearts, which he relied on for survival, were simultaneously shattered in that moment.
’This time, I won’t give you any chance.’
Sora coldly watched Kakuzu’s corpse fall down, completely devoid of life force.
He would not hold back like last time, for the sake of so-called "plans".
"Kak, Kakuzu."
Danzo watched as Kakuzu, who claimed to have fought Senju Hashirama without losing and possessed formidable strength, was killed so cleanly and swiftly. His only remaining arm trembled slightly. The last trace of hope in his heart was completely shattered.
He abruptly raised his head. Like a madman, he roared at the Azure Dragon in the sky.
"Sora. You cannot kill me. I am a Konoha elder."
"I am the one who will become Hokage. Everything I did was for Konoha. To make the village stronger."
His voice was hoarse, filled with unwillingness and the struggle of one facing death.
However, the only response he received was Sora’s extremely cold dragon pupils, and the burning rage within them.
’For Konoha.’
Sora sneered internally. ’The same high-sounding excuse as in the original story. Sacrificing comrades, colluding with rogue ninja, for your pathetic ambition. Is this what you call for Konoha.’
The pale face and guilty look in Uesugi Min’s eyes before her death once again surfaced in his mind. Completely igniting all his killing intent.
"Your Konoha has nothing to do with me."
The Azure Dragon opened its huge maw. Deep dark azure light rapidly gathered in its mouth.
A terrifying energy fluctuation, far surpassing any previous attack, suddenly erupted.
It was the strongest Boro Breath. Condensed from all of Sora’s current rage, the Azure Dragon Fruit’s source power, and the Dragon Vein chakra.
Danzo looked at the gathering point of that destructive energy. His pupils contracted sharply. An absurd thought flashed through his mind.
’So, so back then during the ninja school exam, that overwhelmingly powerful Great Fireball. It was actually, this.’
He finally understood. From the very beginning, he had underestimated this orphan from another village.
Or rather, he acted too late.
Unfortunately, he understood too late.
"I did it for Konoha."
In Danzo’s final hysterical roar, the dark azure Boro Breath from the Azure Dragon’s mouth erupted.
A dark azure light beam over fifty meters in diameter instantly submerged Danzo’s location, and the large area behind him.
Boom.
Where the light beam passed, all matter was instantly annihilated.
Not even a speck of dust remained.
As the dark azure light beam slowly dissipated, only a bottomless, giant crater with a smooth, mirror-like edge remained on the spot.
Danzo, along with his so-called ambitions and obsessions, were completely erased from this world. Leaving not a single trace behind.
The Darkness of Konoha, Shimura Danzo. Deceased.
Having dealt with Danzo, Sora’s dragon pupils, filled with killing intent, turned towards the Eight-Headed Serpent still locked in combat with Shanjun. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
Although Shanjun, relying on superior strength, firmly suppressed the Eight-Headed Serpent, constantly blasting its heads and tearing its serpent body, the Eight-Headed Serpent’s monstrous regenerative ability prevented it from being completely killed. The battle had reached a stalemate.
Looking at that disgusting serpent body constantly writhing and regenerating, the violent rage and malevolence accumulated in Sora’s heart due to Uesugi Min’s death surged once again.
"Shanjun, fall back."
Sora gave the order.
Hearing this, Shanjun retreated to the edge of the barrier with a few leaps.
The remaining heads of the Eight-Headed Serpent hissed in confusion, not knowing what this terrifying Azure Dragon was about to do.
Sora gave it no time to think.
His huge dragon head reared up. Lightning exploded within his dragon pupils.
"Roar."
With his roar, it seemed like a door to a pool of thunder had opened within the dark clouds above the barrier.
Tens of thousands of purple lightning bolts of varying thickness continuously bombarded the Eight-Headed Serpent’s massive body.
Sora called this technique, akin to divine punishment, Ten Thousand Thunder Heavenly Prison Invocation.
Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom.
The explosion sounds were continuous. The lightning completely submerged the Eight-Headed Serpent.
A serpent head was just blasted apart. The next moment, over a dozen lightning bolts simultaneously struck the broken area, preventing its regeneration.
"Hsss aaaaah."
The Eight-Headed Serpent let out an unprecedented painful hiss. It struggled and twisted frantically within the sea of lightning. But it could not escape this endless baptism of thunder.
Its regeneration speed, for the first time, fell far behind the speed of destruction.
Orochimaru, hidden within the core of the Eight-Headed Serpent, felt his soul tremble.
’Impossible. This power. This continuous destructive attack. Is his chakra infinite.’
Orochimaru naturally did not know this was one of the Azure Dragon’s abilities, requiring no chakra.
But he felt death approaching.
He had just completed the Living Corpse Reincarnation not long ago. His soul’s compatibility with this body was already unstable. Continuing like this, even with the miraculous Eight-Headed Serpent Technique, he would definitely be completely annihilated along with this body.
’Can’t wait any longer.’
A flash of madness and pain crossed Orochimaru’s eyes.
Forcing the Living Corpse Reincarnation again in a combat state, especially with a wounded soul, had immense side effects. It could even cause permanent soul damage. But he had no choice.
Within the Eight-Headed Serpent’s core, a cold, eerie soul fluctuation began to gather, preparing to leave this serpent body on the verge of collapse.
However, Sora, who had been locking onto the Eight-Headed Serpent with his sensing, detected this familiar soul fluctuation almost at the same moment.
’Want to run. Did you ask me.’
A cold light flashed in Sora’s dragon pupils. The long-prepared killing move was instantly activated.
"Adamantine Sealing Chains."
Clatter.
Dozens of thick, golden glowing chakra chains shot out from the Azure Dragon’s body surface. Piercing through the sea of lightning, they wrapped around the Eight-Headed Serpent’s massive body.
These chains not only restrained the physical body. They directly pierced through the void, wrapping towards Orochimaru’s soul.
"Ugh aaaaah."
A scream filled with extreme pain came from within the Eight-Headed Serpent.
The Adamantine Sealing Chains strongly countered spirit entities.
The golden chains burned Orochimaru’s soul. Forcibly interrupting his reincarnation process. Causing unprecedented severe damage.
The Eight-Headed Serpent’s massive body, under the dual torment of lightning and chains, convulsed violently. Then rapidly shrank and withered. Finally, with a "poof," it turned into a puff of white smoke and disappeared.
On the spot, only a pool of foul-smelling white blood and some shattered serpent scales remained.
Orochimaru, even if he could escape through some unknown life-preserving method, this time, the price he paid was absolutely severe.
The severe damage to his soul. Probably without several years or even over a decade of lying low, he could not recover at all.
It was no different from death.
All powerful enemies were vanquished.
Within the Valley of the End, only scorched earth, deep pits, and the suffocating remnants of energy remained.
The Azure Dragon in the sky let out a long, sorrowful dragon roar towards the sky.
"Roar."
Shanjun also sensed its master’s emotions. Following with a roar towards the sky, the tiger’s roar shook the wilderness.
In a hidden corner, Tagitsuhime coiled her already transformed body. The two newly grown small bumps on her head trembled slightly amidst the lingering dragon might.
She lowered her serpent head. Her throat followed with a low, submissive hiss.
Outside the barrier, all Konoha ninja held their breath. For a long time, they could not recover from this soul-shaking scene.
What they witnessed today was destined to be forever etched deep in their memories.
The might of the Azure Dragon. In such an overbearing, crushing, and overwhelming way. Announced his existence.
