Chapter 85 Broly: I have already submitted a petition to his name, requesting that he appoint me as
Chapter 85 Broly: I have already submitted a petition to his name, requesting that he appoint me as Emperor of the Land of Lightning, but he refuses.
The capital of the Land of Lightning, as the location of the Daimyo's prefecture, is undoubtedly the most prosperous city in the entire country besides Kumogakure (Hidden Cloud Village).
The most impregnable city.
However, today, this prosperity has been completely shattered.
No one expected that the Daimyo's mansion, possessing a defense force second only to the Hidden Cloud Village, would be so easily defeated. Led by a seemingly innocent child, it was overthrown like a house of cards by a group of young girls whose combined age probably didn't even add up to forty.
The entire capital was plunged into unprecedented chaos. People were either fleeing the city like madmen or cowering indoors, their doors and windows tightly shut.
As the roaring sounds and screams of the guards from the direction of Daming Prefecture gradually subsided, a deathly silence enveloped the town.
Some bolder commoners peeked out from under doors or through windows, cautiously approaching Daming Prefecture.
However, the sight that came into view terrified them.
The once invincible ninja and guards of the daimyo's mansion now lay scattered on the ground, some dead, others fleeing like stray dogs, crawling through the muddy streets while incoherently crying out, "Help! Spare us!"
"We'll never do it again! Stop fighting!"
"Help! Help! My legs! I can't feel my legs!"
"So...we didn't win?"
Seeing this, the people could hardly believe their eyes.
It should be noted that although the defense forces here are not as strong as those in Kumogakure, they are by no means a rabble. How could they be so easily frightened by a group of children?
Just then, a townsman pointed in the direction of Daming Prefecture and let out a piercing scream: "Look over there!"
Everyone turned their heads sharply, only to see Broly slowly walking out of the ruins of the Daimyo's mansion.
He leaped and landed on the highest roof of the mansion, looking down at the city from above.
That posture, that look, bore a striking resemblance to the "god" who would one day destroy Konoha, as if he were about to shout out, "How many floors can you carry a bag of rice up?"
However, what was even more terrifying than the oppressive feeling was the thing Broly was casually holding in his left hand—the head of their Land of Lightning's daimyo.
"I had a proper talk with him."
Broly's voice wasn't loud, but it carried clearly throughout the square, with an indescribable sense of leisure.
"I had already politely petitioned him to appoint me as the emperor of the Thunder Kingdom, but he refused."
The people below were instantly petrified.
What is he saying?
Hinata, standing not far below Broly, felt an instinctive fear of the bloody scene, but she was much calmer now than when she was panicked in Konoha.
After all, she had become somewhat numb to similar scenes after following Broly for the past few days.
Broly winked, a playful smile curving his lips. "In that case, I don't need to be polite with him."
.
As he spoke, he tightened his fingers slightly.
"Bang!"
With a muffled thud, the daimyo's head instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist in his hand, spraying into the air.
Under the terrified gazes of the people below, Broly calmly sat down.
"From this day forward, the Land of Thunder will be renamed the Land of Air, and I will assume the title of Emperor of the Land of Air."
His voice was unruly and domineering, echoing over the deathly silent city.
"I don't need those who doubt me or disrespect me to stay in my country. In this world, strength and wisdom are everything. So, those who lack confidence in my power and those who want to rebel against me, now is your last chance to make a choice. I'm giving you three days. Now get out of here."
Although the daimyo of the Land of Lightning wasn't usually very popular, the people felt a deep-seated fear after witnessing the actions of Broly and his group of "foreign demons."
They packed their bags and fled the city—oh, no, it should be called the Land of Air now—like stray dogs.
Compared to fleeing to the neighboring Land of Hot Springs or the Land of the Moon, more citizens of the capital chose to flee to the Hidden Cloud Village.
They pinned their hopes on the Third Raikage to stop the monster, and had high expectations for the Fourth Raikage, A, who was hailed as the son of the "strongest Raikage of all time."
After all, no matter how strong that monster child is, he can't possibly be stronger than the Hidden Cloud Village, which has a Kage-level ninja, two perfect Jinchuriki, and a ninja army of thousands, right?
The capital of the Land of Lightning is not far from the Hidden Cloud Village. After all, the relationship between a Daimyo and a Kage is, in a sense, that of an employer and a bodyguard. A bodyguard can't be too far away from his employer.
Just one day later, some wealthy people and caravans on horseback arrived at Kumogakure and informed the Fourth Raikage of the dramatic changes that had occurred in the capital.
The atmosphere in the Fourth Raikage A's office was extremely tense.
Ai had just dispatched his secret service to investigate the brat named Broly when he heard the devastating news that the daimyo had been killed and the capital had changed hands.
"Bang!"
In a fit of rage, the Fourth Raikage slammed his fist into the desk in front of him, instantly turning the incredibly hard solid wood into dust.
"Where did this brat come from?! Do you think the Land of Thunder has no one to rely on?!"
Ai's roar shook the windows. He turned to the earthen platform beside him and ordered, "Earthen! Gather the troops and come with me to Daming Prefecture! I want to see what that brat is capable of!"
To be honest, no matter which ninja country it is, the relationship between the Kage and the Daimyo is not exactly harmonious.
After all, to become the Kage of a village, one's abilities are beyond question. How could such a powerful person tolerate a daimyo with no special powers pointing fingers at him?
Not to mention the Fourth Raikage's explosive temper.
However, Broly's actions are clearly a slap in the face to A! And why change the name to "Land of Air"? Why don't you just change the name of Kumogakure to "Kigakure Village"?
"BOOM—!!!"
However, before Tu Tai could answer, everyone in the office heard an extremely loud and exaggerated bang coming from the direction of the village entrance.
Everyone turned their heads sharply and looked out the window. They saw a cloud of dust rising from the village entrance, obscuring the sky. In the distance, many Cloud Village ninjas guarding the village entrance were blown away like kites with broken strings, crashing heavily to the ground, their fate unknown.
The Fourth Raikage's pupils constricted sharply, and he shouted, "What happened?!"
Brush brush!
Several sharp whooshing sounds rang out as several members of the Cloud Hidden Anbu appeared in the office using the Body Flicker Technique.
The leader knelt on one knee, his voice trembling and incoherent, "Lord Raikage! A child—leading several girls, has broken in! They—they're too strong! The guards at the village entrance—they can't stop them at all!"
"A child? A teenage girl?"
Upon hearing these two words, the Fourth Raikage and his group immediately thought of Broly and his group, whom they had just mentioned in their report.
"Is he crazy?"
Tu Tai froze on the spot, his throat tightening.
They just attacked the Daimyo's residence yesterday, and today they dare to come directly to Kumogakure? That kid named Broly is far too arrogant.
It's important to understand that the military strength of the Hidden Cloud Village is not on the same level as that of the capital of the Land of Lightning!
Furthermore, the Fourth Raikage is not a "ninja bear" like Hiruzen Sarutobi. Broly's behavior will definitely not be tolerated like it was in Konoha before!
The Fourth Raikage's muscles were taut, and faint lightning even began to appear on his body.
He grinned, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth, and sneered, "Good—it saves me the trouble of going looking for him. He really didn't expect that even though I didn't go looking for that kid, he would actually dare to come knocking on my door!"
After saying that, the Fourth Raikage threw another punch.
"boom!"
This punch shattered the solid wall, and Ai transformed into a blue lightning bolt, rushing towards the village entrance.
Seeing this, Mabui couldn't help but think to herself, "The budget is going to increase again—"
She really wanted to remind her Raikage that this was Kumogakure's own house, and that doing this would only increase the repair budget and bring no benefit whatsoever.
But Ai was clearly already intoxicated, so Mabui wisely refrained from saying anything inappropriate.
"I'll go take a look."
Tsuchida, along with his men, followed closely behind the Fourth Raikage.
Although they were shocked, they were not too nervous.
After all, no matter how you look at it, the Fourth Raikage, who is in his prime and at the peak of his life, could not possibly lose to a five-year-old child.
As for how the other party killed Sarutobi Shinnosuke and occupied the Daimyo's residence in the Land of Lightning in such a short time, Tsuchida speculated that there might be some special bloodline limit, such as the Sharingan similar to the Uchiha clan.
As everyone knows, there is an unwritten rule in the ninja world when facing the Uchiha clan—you must run away when it comes to one-on-one combat.
Tsuchida, who was following behind the Fourth Raikage, realized this and turned to his subordinate beside him, ordering, "Go and summon all the Jonin who are still in the village! Except for Bee."
Although Tsuchikage thought it was unlikely, he still felt it was necessary to gather more people in order to prevent his Raikage from being tricked.
Moreover, according to the information relayed back by those merchants, the little girls around Broly are all highly skilled and should not be underestimated.
However, Tsuchikage did not allow his subordinates to bring Killer Bee along. After all, that perfect Jinchuriki's personality was too unpredictable, and who knew how things would turn out if he were brought over.
Ai, transformed into a blue light and shadow, rushed from the office building to the village entrance in just over ten seconds.
The moment he landed, he saw Broly slowly emerging from the smoke and dust, along with a group of pretty girls that even he had to admit were quite attractive.
Seeing the little brat walking at the front, the Fourth Raikage couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Although he had heard from wealthy businessmen who had fled from the capital that the boy looked to be only five or six years old, he still couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he actually saw him.
Immediately, Ai's lips curled into a mocking smile, and he said loudly, "Although Sarutobi Shinnosuke's strength is not that great, the fact that he died at the hands of such a brat shows that Konoha has become incredibly weak."
Upon hearing this, Broly on the other side nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, you're right. Konoha is indeed incredibly weak."
As he spoke, Broly raised another finger and added, "However, there's one thing you're wrong about: it's an honor for Sarutobi Shinnosuke to die at my hands."
At this moment, Tsuchikage arrived with Darui, Hii, and other elite ninjas from Kumogakure, instantly surrounding Broly and his group.
The hands of the Cloud Village ninjas gripping their weapons trembled slightly, their eyes filled with vigilance and a barely concealed fear. The loud noise from the village entrance and the tragic fate of their comrades still echoed in their minds.
Tu Tai stepped forward, his expression serious, and questioned, "Who exactly are you? What gives you the right to do these things?"
As an advisor who assisted two generations of Raikage, Tsuchida had many thoughts on this.
He worried that there was an even greater force behind Broly, and if the Raikage killed him directly, he might miss some very important information.
However, Broly had no intention of answering the question about the earthen platform.
He simply stroked his chin, observing the Fourth Raikage before him with great interest.
This guy is a legend in the Naruto doujinshi world.
Although in the original work he was always portrayed as a cold and aloof man, completely uninterested in women, just like the Naruto version of Akainu, his appearance was just too perfect for "doujinshi"—especially NTR doujinshi.
blond hair, muscular build, dark skin, and he's also the village chief. Damn, it's a perfect blend of all the elements.
But to be fair, among a group of Kage who are all "god-like", the Fourth Raikage is one of the more normal ones, thanks in large part to the contrast with his peers.
His contemporaries, such as Hiruzen Sarutobi, Rasa, and Yagura, who was controlled by Obito Uchiha, were all incredibly powerful.
Only Onoki seemed to be somewhat normal, but Onoki also drove Rōshi, the four-tailed jinchūriki who disagreed with him, out of the village.
A, on the other hand, didn't show many flaws from beginning to end, except for sending someone to kidnap Hinata.
However, if you look at it from his perspective, there's nothing wrong with it, since Kumogakure and Konoha are enemies.
Broly sized up A for a while before finally speaking, "I've decided to rename Kumogakure (Hidden Cloud Village) as Kigakure (Hidden Spirit Village). How about it, join me? I can appoint you as the first Jonin squad leader of Kigakure."
After occupying the Daimyo's capital and declaring himself Emperor of the Land of Ki, Broly discovered a different way of doing things than he had done on the pirate planet.
While on the pirate planet, although he sailed with Tesoro, Toritoma, and others, he mostly acted alone when it came to having fun.
After occupying the capital of the Land of Lightning, Broly may have awakened the "infrastructure maniac" bloodline of his previous life as a Chinese. He thought that creating a country and then gradually building it into the number one power on the ninja planet seemed like a pretty good idea.
After all, if the gameplay is exactly the same as before on Pirate Planet, it would be a bit boring. He wanted to experience a "brand new" version.
The Fourth Raikage's lips twitched, and he chuckled.
People can actually laugh when they are extremely speechless.
Just now in the office, he was thinking to himself, "Broly is so bold, he might as well just rename Kumogakure to Kigakure."
Unexpectedly, they actually did it!
"What the hell am I supposed to do?!"
Ai roared, and his whole body burst forth with dazzling blue lightning.
This is the taijutsu passed down through generations of Raikage—Lightning Release Chakra Mode!
This is similar to the effect of Chidori, created by Kakashi Hatake, which uses Lightning Release chakra to stimulate cells in the body, thereby increasing speed.
However, Lightning Release Chakra Mode not only increases speed, but also greatly enhances the user's defensive capabilities.
However, a strange thought flashed through Broly's mind at this moment: Wu Wukai himself said that in this state, the naked eye of an ordinary ninja could not keep up with the speed of the body, and it was not until he had the Sharingan that this problem was solved.
So how did the Raikage of each generation solve this problem? Is it really because Black people have better athletic ability than White people? Or better dynamic vision? (Is this a reference to a specific brand of Raikage?)
The moment Ai shouted those words, he vanished from the spot.
"So fast!"
Hancock, Yamato, and the others, who were originally standing behind Broly, ready to defend against his attack, suddenly changed their expressions.
Before Yamato could even draw his spiked club, he saw the muscular man rush towards Broly, his fist, carrying the force of a thunderbolt, already swinging down fiercely!
When Ai threw this punch, the huge iron fist even generated a strong gust of wind that made the clothes of the people around him flutter and their hair fly backward.
The Cloud Village ninjas instinctively held their breath, their eyes flashing with absolute confidence—the Raikage's speed and strength would surely be enough to take down this monster!
However, Ai's expression suddenly changed after throwing the punch.
Because he didn't feel the slightest sense of hitting the target.
Just then, Broly's voice came from behind him, still in that leisurely tone: "Really not willing?"
Ai turned around abruptly and saw Broly standing behind him, his back to her.
The people around them, including Tutai, Darui, and hope, were instantly struck dumb, their hopes freezing into unbelievable terror.
Tsuchikage's eyes widened, a hoarse sound coming from his throat like a duck being choked, as he exclaimed, "He actually dodged it?! The Raikage's attack in Lightning Release Chakra Mode was actually—how could he have dodged it so easily?!"
Darui gasped, his back instantly drenched in cold sweat. He nearly dropped his knife, clicked his tongue, and his voice trembled as he said, "So it seems his claim of killing Sarutobi Shinnosuke and seizing our country's daimyo's mansion wasn't just empty talk—where did this freak come from?"
The surrounding Cloud Village ninjas were in an uproar, whispering amongst themselves as fear gripped their hearts.
Their pride and joy, the Raikage, whose speed was among the best in the ninja world, was actually defeated by a five-year-old child—
Looking at Broly, whose back was turned to him, A's expression became extremely solemn. In this kid, he saw the silhouette of someone—the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.
Of all the opponents A has faced so far, even the strongest Raikage, whose overall strength surpasses his own, A is confident that his speed is no slower than his father's.
The only thing that could make him concede defeat in terms of speed was that yellow flash.
Immediately, Ai's expression became even more serious, and the chakra within his body was circulated to its maximum.
However, Broly's attitude on the other side was in stark contrast to his.
He still slumped his shoulders, looking relaxed, and even seemed to be in the mood to continue recruiting: "I still think highly of you. As long as you're willing to surrender, I think I can still give you good treatment."
To be fair, if Broly were an ordinary transmigrator who hadn't awakened any special abilities and had transmigrated to the Naruto world, he would still prefer Kumogakure if he had to choose a ninja village.
After all, the Kage of the other ninja villages are all more eccentric than the last.
If it were Konoha, one could travel to the time of Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju, or Minato Namikaze. However, Hiruzen Sarutobi has lived for too long. If one were to travel to Konoha, one would likely end up during his reign, and would easily be targeted by the Konoha F4.
Being too strong makes you an easy target for these four old perverts; being too weak makes it difficult to survive in this world.
The original work provides limited descriptions of the Fourth Raikage's governing abilities. However, considering that no Akatsuki members appeared in Kumogakure and two perfect Jinchuriki were born, the Fourth Raikage was at least the kind of Kage who wouldn't betray his own people.
That alone is already quite good.
Don't underestimate me!!!
Ai roared, clearly not taking Broly's words to heart at all, and taking it as a provocation.
The lightning chakra on his body became even more violent, and crackling electrical sounds filled the entire space, even causing his blond slicked-back hair to stand up like a hedgehog.
This is his full-power form—called "Strongest Lightning Armor"!
In this state, not only speed and defense, but also attack power will grow to the extreme, and speed will reach a new level, making it difficult even for the Mangekyou Sharingan to catch up.
Seeing this, the ninjas of Kumogakure felt a renewed sense of hope, and some couldn't help but whisper cheers, "It's Lightning Release Armor! The Raikage is getting serious!"
However, Broly's expression remained unchanged, while Hancock and the others beside him looked rather strange.
Because of A's current state, with lightning swirling around his body and his hair standing on end, he really does bear a striking resemblance to the Super Saiyan form that Broly displayed on the pirate planet.
"Whoosh!"
Ai's figure disappeared again.
If Yamato and the others could still barely keep up with A's movements before, even though their bodies couldn't keep up, now A's speed has become so fast that even their eyes can't keep up, and even their Observation Haki can't completely lock onto him.
Suddenly, Ai Kuiwu's figure appeared above Broly's head, his right leg raised high, all the lightning in his body gathering on that foot, assuming a downward kicking stance, and roaring: "Righteous Thunder Sinking Wrath Thunder Axe!!!"
This was exactly the move he was preparing to use to kill Erzhuzi in the original story.
If Gaara hadn't intervened, Sasuke might have really died from that move.
Broly slightly raised his eyes, looking at the split kick getting closer and closer to his head, sighed softly, and said with a sneer, "Fine, fine, then go die."
Although Broly knew that the Fourth Raikage did not have the characteristics of a minotaur, he still felt somewhat uneasy having a blond, muscular man by his side.
This is similar to how Krillin's family and their children live together with Master Roshi. Although everyone knows that Master Roshi is highly respected and wouldn't do anything to Android 18, he doesn't have that ability either.
However, Broly really wanted to retort to Krillin: Don't you know your teacher's character? How dare you live with Master Roshi? Aren't you afraid something might happen?
A, imbued with lightning chakra, delivered a powerful kick that slashed down fiercely!
"boom-!!!"
With a deafening roar, the ground within a ten-meter radius centered on Ai and Broly instantly cracked open.
Countless rocks flew up, and a huge crater was forcibly ripped open in the ground.
In the current ninja world, besides the Fourth Raikage, probably only Tsunade can achieve this level of pure physical strength.
Smoke and dust filled the air, obscuring what was happening inside.
But all the Cloud Village ninjas felt the outcome was already decided. Many even closed their eyes, unable to bear the bloody scene, muttering, "It's over—that monster is doomed—"
"How could we possibly withstand Lord Raikage's ultimate attack?!"
The Jonin from Kumogakure around them showed expressions of relief and excitement, with some even cheering.
There were also sensory ninjas present who could accurately sense that Broly hadn't used his speed to escape, but was still standing in place. This made them even more excited, dancing with joy: even if that kid had some mysterious bloodline limit, how could he possibly survive taking a direct hit from their Raikage's attack?
"wrong----"
Tu Tai suddenly frowned and said, his voice trembling slightly.
He noticed that the girls across the street all had calm and composed expressions, showing no sign of worry whatsoever.
The youngest, Xiao Zi, even crossed her arms and commented with a look of disdain, "It doesn't seem very good."
Although Xiao Zi's own strength is still quite limited, she has experienced many big scenes, and this level of attack is simply not enough for her.
"His strength is not even as good as Garp's." Hancock also curled her lip, her tone full of disdain.
Yamato chimed in, "But his speed far surpasses Garp's."
At this moment, the smoke and dust finally dissipated completely.
The surrounding Cloud Village Jonin and the Cloud Village villagers who had gathered after hearing the commotion witnessed a scene they would never forget: their Raikage was still in the split-leg downward strike position, his face filled with disbelief.
The child, whose height was just above the Raikage's waist, simply raised one hand and gently supported the Raikage's calf, which was thicker than his waist. He stood still, without moving an inch, not even the hem of his clothes swaying.
Dead silence.
A deathly silence.
Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
The smiles on the faces of the Cloud Village ninjas froze, their cheers caught in their throats, their eyes bulged as if they were about to pop out, and their mouths were agape enough to fit a fist.
"How—how is this possible?!"
Darui and Shi, the Fourth Raikage's confidants, were stunned.
Their proud Raikage, their war god, had his full-force attack so easily intercepted.
"What kind of power is that—" hope's lips trembled. As a sensory ninja, he could clearly feel the unfathomable energy within Broly's body, an energy that made him tremble from the depths of his soul.
"Monster—he's not human—he's a monster!" a Jonin screamed, filled with despair.
"Don't worry, we've known each other for a while now, so I'll let you die a quick death."
Broly maintained the position of holding Ai's split with his right hand, while his left palm faced upward, emitting an eerie bluish-green light.
Ai's expression changed drastically, and an unprecedented shadow of death loomed over his heart.
Although he didn't know what kind of move it was, the moment he saw that light, he instinctively felt fear—a kind of despair that came from having no power to resist when facing absolute power.
A flash of blue light, and Ai, with his astonishing reaction speed, instantly disappeared from his original spot, using his extreme speed to create distance.
He thought to himself frantically, "Damn it! Even if you're stronger than me, I'm still faster! You can keep chasing me for the rest of your life!"
However, almost in the next instant.
Just moments ago, Ai thought she was out of danger, but suddenly she felt that suffocating aura of fear coming from directly in front of her.
Ai suddenly looked up, his pupils contracting sharply.
Broly stood there with his arms crossed, head tilted, looking at him with a half-smile.
Ai braked instantly, stopping less than two meters from Broly.
This scene not only shocked the onlookers of Kumogakure, but even A himself was stunned, and the lightning around his body dimmed a bit.
Broly asked with a grin, "Where are you going, buddy?"
Beads of cold sweat, the size of soybeans, trickled down Darui's cheek and fell heavily.
Overwhelmed by fear, he stammered, "How—how is this possible—not only in strength, but also in speed—faster than the Raikage?"
The surrounding villagers of Kumogakure, along with many wealthy merchants who had fled from the capital seeking help, began to scatter. Some turned and ran, shouting, "Run! It's a monster! Even the Raikage can't beat him!"
They had pinned their hopes on the Fourth Raikage, but now it was clear that A, on whom they had placed such high hopes, was no match for him, and he ran away without saying a word.
After all, for businessmen, preserving their own assets is the most important thing; they don't care about the country or anything like that.
Broly lowered his arms from his chest, took a step towards Ai, and said, "Don't worry, as I just said, I'll give you a quick death."
A's personality is indeed very similar to Akainu's: single-minded, ruthless, and tough.
Torture of this kind of person wouldn't bring Broly any pleasure; it would only make him feel bored.
Seeing Broly walking towards him, Ai instinctively took a step back.
It wasn't that he was afraid of death; it was simply a subconscious reaction driven by his biological survival instinct.
However, just as Ai took a step back, he saw Broly's small hand rapidly enlarge in his pupils.
By the time he realized it—
"Bang!"
Broly's hand, which was not even half the size of his face, was already slammed down on his face.
Broly used a little force to lift Ai up like a chick, and then suddenly slammed him down.
"boom-!!!"
With a deafening crash, Ai was slammed to the ground. This time, the ground couldn't withstand the terrifying force, and it cracked open, creating a massive crater over a hundred meters in diameter!
Mud flew everywhere, and dust billowed into the sky.
This is in stark contrast to the small crater created by Ai's "Righteous Thunder Fury Axe" attack.
Even someone who isn't blind can see how great the difference in strength is between these two people.
The ninjas of Kumogakure were completely devastated.
Someone slumped to the ground, eyes vacant, muttering repeatedly, "Lord Raikage—how could Lord Raikage—"
Some people covered their heads, huddled in a corner, trembling, and dared not look at the terrifying pit again.
Some people even lost control of their bladder and bowels, and a foul odor filled the air, but no one cared that fear had devoured all their dignity and reason.
At the very instant he pinned Ai to the ground, Broly's left hand, which was covering Ai's face, emitted a bluish-green light for the second time.
"Raikage-sama!!!"
At this moment, among the onlookers, several loyal Jonin, their eyes red, let out desperate roars.
Knowing they were no match for him, they still mustered their courage and charged forward: "Support Lord Raikage!!!"
Instantly, Tutai, Darui, hope, and others also joined the attack.
They unleashed a barrage of ninjutsu at Broly as if it were free. They didn't care whether they would hurt their own Raikage; they could only think of doing everything they could to force this monster back, even if it was just to buy the Raikage a moment to catch his breath.
"Lightning Release: Black Spotted Blade!"
"Lightning Release: Lightning Pillar!"
"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"
A variety of long-range lightning ninjutsu came rushing in, including many high-powered bloodline limits.
However, just before these attacks were about to hit Broly, who was holding A down, "Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"
Suddenly, a large number of Cloud Village Chunin and Genin who were originally standing on the periphery seemed to be controlled by an invisible force, rushing forward like madmen and blocking Broly and these ninjutsu, forming human shields.
"What?!"
Darui, Tsuchida, and the others' expressions changed drastically as they desperately tried to retract their ninjutsu, but it was too late.
At the critical moment, Tsuchida, the user of the Lava Release Kekkei Genkai, quickly unleashed his ultimate technique: "Lava Release: Protective Wall!"
The elastic membrane, resembling mud, that spewed from the earthen platform instantly expanded, forming a massive spherical wall that blocked the human shields, attempting to withstand the numerous lightning-based attacks.
"BOOM—!!!"
The exaggerated explosion resounded throughout the entire village.
Although Darui and the others managed to retract some of their ninjutsu at the last moment, and with Tsuchikage's Lava Release as protection, many attacks still landed on the Cloud Village's chunin and genin who couldn't retreat in time.
Screams rose and fell as several ninjas were blasted into pieces by their own ninjutsu, their mangled limbs flying everywhere in a gruesome scene.
"What are you doing?!"
Darui shouted angrily, his heart aching at the sight of the carnage before him, yet he was also furious.
Samui, who had just rushed out as a human shield and narrowly escaped death, was now deathly pale, trembling all over, and his teeth chattering as he said, "I'm so sorry... my body just... moved on its own... out of control..."
At this time, Samui was only 17 years old and just an ordinary Chunin from Kumogakure, but her hot figure was already beginning to show.
Her eyes were filled with fear and despair; she didn't know why she had done such a thing.
At this moment, Tutai and the others also noticed the strange black marks on Samui and the others' arms.
Tu Tai frowned and asked, "What is that?"
At this moment, hope noticed that among the girls following Broly diagonally opposite, the tallest woman with an unparalleled beauty had sprouted a pair of jet-black wings from her back and was holding a strange book in her hand.
hope's pupils contracted sharply, as if she had realized something, and she exclaimed in a trembling voice, "Could it be—she did it?! She manipulated Samui and the others?!"
The fear intensified once again.
That monster child not only possessed terrifying strength himself, but the people around him also had such bizarre abilities?
"Boom!"
No one answered hope's question, and then another loud bang was heard.
The Cloud Village members reacted, turning their heads in disbelief to see Broly's left hand suddenly explode.
The smoke from the gunpowder rose high into the sky, enveloping the entire deep pit.
A few seconds later, the smoke slowly dissipated.
Broly clapped his hands and strolled out of the smoke, not even a speck of dust on him.
He glanced at the bottomless pit in the ground and said slowly, "Don't worry, he died without any pain."
The Fourth Raikage is dead.
Their war god, the pillar of Kumogakure, died just like that.
Instantly, everyone present in the Hidden Cloud Village felt as if their faith had collapsed and the sky had fallen.
Many people could no longer hold back and burst into tears. Some lay on the ground, burying their faces in their hands and sobbing in the direction of the pit.
Some people completely lost their will to fight, threw down their weapons, slumped to the ground, and stared blankly into space.
"Damn it!!! You actually did that to Lord Raikage—"
Even the lazy Darui was enraged to the extreme at this moment. He suddenly drew the short blade he always carried, his chakra surged, and he charged towards Broly.
Only Tu Tai managed to remain somewhat calm. His expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly shouted, "Wait! Don't make any rash moves!!"
However, these people were blinded by anger and despair and clearly wouldn't listen to Tu Tai's words.
One by one, with bloodshot eyes, they charged toward Broly as if they were going to fight to the death.
This also shows that the Fourth Raikage was indeed more popular than Hiruzen Sarutobi.
After all, during the Konoha Crush, Hiruzen Sarutobi was almost killed by Orochimaru, while the Anbu were just watching from the sidelines.
However, Broly remained completely unmoved by the overwhelming number of Cloud Village ninja rushing towards him.
Hancock gave a cold snort, her voice filled with queenly authority and murderous intent: "Who gave you permission to lay a hand on my lover?"
As she spoke, she slightly turned the pages of the magic book in her hand.
Samui, Nurui, and Yurui, who were relatively weaker Chunin and Genin and had been marked with the contract mark, suddenly had their eyes turn white and grew fangs like demons.
Their bodies swelled dramatically, increasing in height by more than half a meter, and they also grew jet-black demon wings on their backs, just like Hancock's.
This is one of the Devil Fruit abilities that Im, the little sister, displayed in Elbaf in the original work—Black Domination!
In an instant, these people unleashed speed and power comparable to Jonin, blocking Darui, hope, and the others. Their eyes were empty, devoid of any emotion, filled only with chilling killing intent, like true demons.
"What are you trying to do now?!"
Darui shouted in shock and anger, his fear growing stronger as he looked at his former companion in this state.
hope stopped her partner, saying in a low voice, "Wait, something's wrong with them! They're being manipulated!"
However, there was no time for them to think it over.
Samui, whose height had increased dramatically from just over 1.6 meters to over 2 meters, charged forward wielding his short blade, accompanied by a whistling sound.
Her power became incredibly terrifying; each swing of her sword was accompanied by the sound of air being cut.
Darui could only parry with his own sword.
"clang!"
The sound of metal clashing was extremely jarring.
However, the moment they clashed, Darui's expression changed drastically. He gritted his teeth, his arm went numb from the impact, and he was utterly horrified: "Wow—what incredible strength!!"
Under the influence of the Dark Transformation, Hancock's "demon army" clashed fiercely with the ninjas of Kumogakure, holding their own.
However, even if their physical abilities are improved to the level of a Jonin, the gap in combat experience still exists.
It's not easy to completely defeat the opponent with this trick alone.
Fortunately, Tu Tai and his men were hesitant to kill these people because they were all fellow villagers, and they were unable to do so. As a result, they were soon at a disadvantage.
"Damn it! Did that woman do it?!"
A Cloud Village Jonin looked down at Hancock, who was high in the sky holding a magic book and overlooking the battlefield, and shouted through gritted teeth, his voice filled with despair and resentment.
Tu Tai acted decisively, shouting, "Retreat!! Retreat immediately!!"
"Lord Todai?!"
The other Cloud Village Jonin stared at Tsuchikage in disbelief; they still wanted to try again.
Tsuchikage said gravely, "Lord Raikage is away, and Yugito is also out on a mission. We are not in a position to fight them! Besides, you don't want to kill your own comrades, do you? We have no choice but to retreat for now and make other plans! If we don't leave, we'll all die here!"
His voice trembled slightly, not from fear, but from despair.
He knew they were facing an invincible monster.
Hearing Tsuchikage's words, many of the Cloud Village's Jonin were unwilling, but they knew that this was indeed the only way forward.
Moreover, given the status of the earthen platform, they dared not disobey.
In an instant, under Tsuchikage's orders, the Cloud Village ninjas and a large number of villagers began to flee the village in a sorry state.
Their faces were filled with fear and despair, like stray dogs. Some even fell while running, but quickly got up again, afraid of being caught by the monster.
Hinata stood behind Broly, completely stunned.
First, they killed the Hokage's son, then occupied the capital of the Land of Lightning, then killed the Fourth Raikage, and forced all of Kumogakure's top fighters to flee the village.
In just half a month, they accomplished so many earth-shattering things.
Hinata thought this was more exaggerated than any story she had ever heard.
The fear brought by Broly has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of everyone in Kumogakure.
Broly did not pursue Tu Tai and his group.
With a light leap, he flew to the roof of the iconic Raikage's office building in Kumogakure.
He looked down at the ninja village, built in a high-altitude mountain area and now leaderless, and opened his arms to enjoy the air of this new planet.
"From now on, this is Kigakure."
