Bloodline Limit - Chapter 480

However much Deidara advanced, however excellent he became, since they collided and engaged in battle, Ryoha couldn’t let him go. Moreover, Ryoha never intended to let any member of the Akatsuki go.

However, he didn’t intend to wipe out the entire Akatsuki at once, because doing so would be too easy and uninteresting for them. Previously, he had played a game of confrontation between the Akatsuki and the Five Great Countries, but later, he felt it was not meaningful to enjoy and watch as an outsider. So, he joined them and personally crippled the Five Great Countries and the Akatsuki.

“Huff… Regardless, I won’t retreat,” Deidara took a deep breath, his eyes showing no fear. He never flinched or feared in the face of a formidable opponent. This was something Sasuke didn’t have, for Sasuke was essentially a slave to power. Where would he find the heart of a strong one? On the contrary, Deidara had it.

“C2!” Deidara summoned a giant dragon and immediately flew into the sky after burying landmines. He induced the bombardment of guided missiles. Konan knew that Deidara alone was no match for Ryoha, so she joined the battle. She transformed into her angelic form and flew into the air, releasing explosive tags resembling sheets of paper around Ryoha, causing explosions.

For a moment, the entire Konoha forest was filled with incessant explosions and thick smoke mixed with flames. Since this place was not far from Konoha, this series of explosions immediately caught Konoha’s attention. Jiraiya let Neji take a look at who it was. There was no way around it; now, Neji was the only one in Konoha who could use the Byakugan. Hinata Hyuga had her Byakugan sealed, so Neji was extremely precious to Konoha.

“It’s Ryoha, and there’s Tsunade too. One is a member of the Akatsuki we met in the Land of Wind, and the other is also a member of the Akatsuki, using detonating tags similar to sheets of paper that can fly. Additionally, there are six people with circular eyes fighting with Tsunade.” Neji reported truthfully.

“What? Ryoha and Tsunade? Fighting the Akatsuki? It seems they really don’t get along. But why is the Akatsuki here? Oh no, they’re targeting Naruto. It seems they think the Nine-Tails is still inside Naruto. But we can’t let them get close to Naruto now. Naruto is currently undergoing the sealing of the Yin side of the Nine-Tails; it absolutely cannot be interrupted.”

Jiraiya said, showing that he was able to infer the cause of the whole thing with just this clue.

“Jiraiya-sama, what do we do now?” Kakashi asked. The elites of Konoha had already gathered here, and there were still many Jonin and Chunin ready for appointment in various positions.

“If I’m not mistaken, the person fighting with Tsunade, who has the Rinnegan of the Six Paths, is a big trouble. This battle is no ordinary trouble. Let’s prepare for evacuation first. Ryoha appearing here is definitely not just to fight the Akatsuki. With his hatred for Konoha, he would not just help Konoha block the Akatsuki. So, the only explanation is that Ryoha wants to personally deal with those in Konoha who have grudges against him.”

Jiraiya said. Obviously, he planned to let the people of Konoha escape first, including some of the elders. Now, Konoha was united to deal with Ryoha, so the power of the high-level elders was in Jiraiya’s hands, but it couldn’t be lost in vain. Now that Ryoha and others were fighting the Akatsuki, even if they solved the Akatsuki matter, they would be somewhat injured. At that time, Jiraiya also wouldn’t mind dealing a blow.

Unfortunately, Jiraiya himself wasn’t that confident. Because the Great Toad Sage had said that Ryoha would become extremely terrifying after obtaining the power that brought boundless darkness. Even before Ryoha had this power, he had easily defeated Jiraiya. Not to mention now.

He had prepared to find the Great Toad Sage, but he was worried that the Great Toad Sage might not be able to come, because the Great Toad Sage had also said that when Ryoha had the power that brought boundless darkness, they couldn’t come out when the survival of the ninja world was at stake. Even if they had the ability to be summoned, they couldn’t be summoned. So, he wasn’t that confident, even if he had this means of summoning jutsu.

“Thinking of retreating? I think you don’t have a chance.” At this moment, a disdainful voice came from the sky. Jiraiya and the others looked at the sky and found that Ryoha had appeared in the sky above Konoha, and they didn’t know when. “I knew long ago that after our battle, you would find out, and then take the opportunity to retreat with some of your people and those villagers. Unfortunately, I won’t give you this opportunity, Jiraiya. I’ve said that I won’t let anyone involved in this matter back then, including those who knew about it but concealed it. I won’t spare them. Jiraiya, last time, you were lucky to escape.”

“However, it didn’t matter. I didn’t want any loose ends before the battle ended. I didn’t want any escapees. Stay here quietly until I finish you off, in the Eternal Abyss of Darkness.”

A surge of dark power suddenly emanated from Ryoha, making everyone extremely uncomfortable. It felt like being completely surrounded by darkness. This made Jiraiya more certain that this was the person the Great Toad Sage had mentioned.

“Stop him quickly.” Although Jiraiya didn’t know what Ryoha was planning to do, seeing the black light around him seeming to cover the entire Konoha, he subconsciously knew this was definitely not a good thing.

“It’s useless. None of you can stop me from doing anything,” Ryoha said. When his eyes swept over Jiraiya, Jiraiya felt a chill. His eyes were filled with shock, apparently being stunned by Ryoha’s peculiar Mangekyo Sharingan.

Their techniques, when released, were corroded by the darkness as soon as they touched the black light. They could only watch as the darkness enveloped and wrapped around the entire Konoha. The Konoha elders who knew Ryoha had come and wanted to escape were also desperate. There was no doubt that they were doomed now.

“For those who are about to die, wait slowly for death to come. Soon, when Tsunade solves the Rinnegan, it will come. Why not let you experience when death will come firsthand?”

Ryoha’s voice pierced through the Eternal Abyss and reached the ears of everyone in Konoha. In the sky, a huge light and shadow appeared, and it turned out to be Ryoha. They could clearly see the scene of Tsunade and the Akatsuki fighting as if they were watching it live.

“See, let those who have done wrong witness your last battle before death. This battle is equivalent to the countdown to your death. When this battle ends, it will be the time of your demise.”
