Bloodline Limit - Chapter 487

“When you were worried about others, it would have been better to take care of yourself. From the moment you provoked us, you already had to think about the outcome today,” Tsunade said as she punched Pain, sending him flying. She didn’t say “me” but “us”. It was clear that she considered herself and Ryoha as a unified entity, both in her words and in her heart, treating them as an inseparable whole, as if anything that happened to one of them was equivalent to something happening to both.

“We don’t know who will prevail in the end. It’s too presumptuous of you to say these things now. Shinra Tensei!” Pain said, as he saw the explosion about to end. His face darkened. He spread his hands, and the repelling force surged outward from his body, trying to crush everything within a radius of several tens of kilometers, creating a deep crater in the ground.

Hills and trees within tens of kilometers were crushed to powder under the terrifying repelling force. Only a bare basin remained, and this force was also pressing towards Tsunade, seemingly intending to crush her to powder.

“Is it this move again? Indeed, it’s very powerful, even more powerful than the last time. Unfortunately, last time I deliberately did it for my Wood Release. This time, I have no worries. As long as I possess the strength surpassing the force of your Shinra Tensei, this move can be defeated. Take a good look. Even the Rinnegan is not much in front of me, Holy Release: The Final Judgment.”

Tsunade raised her hands, and a visible golden-green light flowed into a gigantic and incredibly radiant golden-green sphere within the blink of an eye.

“Let me borrow the judgment of the sacred that destroys everything.” Tsunade coldly shouted, and suddenly, the same sacred flame as before appeared on the immense and radiant sphere. It looked like a different colored sun, exuding a breath of life and purity, yet possessing a terrible power to destroy all life.

As Tsunade released her hands, the sphere of sacred judgment, like a sun, immediately projected forward. Wherever it passed, the air immediately caused a disturbance, and it collided with the Shinra Tensei in an instant. A deafening collision resounded for several kilometers, and terrifying energy fluctuations continuously emanated from the collision point between the Shinra Tensei and the sacred judgment.

Pain saw that his Shinra Tensei couldn’t push away this gigantic and burning sphere of the Final Judgment, and his face changed drastically. Ignoring the overexertion of his own life force, he continued to output chakra desperately. However, this was fundamentally a futile effort. A storm-like gust of wind suddenly erupted, directly cutting through the earth. The repelling force of the Shinra Tensei was actually forcibly pushed away by Tsunade’s sacred judgment.

Pain wanted to dodge, but he looked at the all-destructive sacred judgment in front of him and felt an overwhelming force pressing down on him, making him unable to escape, as if even space itself was locked.

“I can’t dodge this move, I can only endure it.” Pain thought to himself, but before he could react, the sacred judgment hit him directly, and he was blasted away alive. The already huge sphere of sacred flame suddenly emitted an even more massive light, exploding instantly like a hurricane of a dozen levels in the air.

“Six Paths of Pain, it’s all over.” Tsunade unleashed such a powerful attack. It was almost comparable to the energy cannon of the Black Gaia. After this powerful strike, her expression remained unchanged, just like before the battle began, her complexion rosy, and her breath calm.
It was evident that using that attack just now, just like using the spiral impact punches before, was no problem for Tsunade. The chakra consumption was not significant. From this, it can be seen how much Ryoha and Tsunade’s strength had reached at this point. Also, Tsunade’s recovery rate was truly astonishing.

“Nagato, Konan, you have lost,” Ryoha said, looking at Nagato and Konan, who had lost their expressions and could no longer maintain the extremely powerful jutsu from just now.

“Hmph!” Konan snorted, although pushed to such an extent, she remained calm and composed.

“But I know, even if the Six Paths of Pan is completely wiped out, as long as the person manipulating him from behind is still there, no matter how many times Six Paths of Pain is destroyed, new Six Paths of Pain can reappear. Am I right, Konan?”

For the first time, Ryoha’s words genuinely made Konan show a look of panic. Konan, Yahiko, and Nagato had the same living environment and grew up together since childhood. Their feelings towards each other were very good, even better than the camaraderie among the three-man teams of the 12 Rookies.

“Heh, what’s this? The calm and composed you finally show panic? Deidara, you impress me too. I didn’t expect you to go back to find the Tsuchikage. And the Tsuchikage actually taught you Dust Release; you’re truly a genius.”

Ryoha appraised Deidara. This genius truly made people astonished at how much his strength had increased.

“Hmph, there’s no need for you to say that. I’ve always been a genius. Everything you say is pointless. There has always been an unsolvable hatred between us. It was destined from the moment you killed Uncle Scorpion. Dust Release: Boundary Corrosion Technique.”

Under the dangerous pressure, Deidara’s Dust Release actually advanced further, reaching a level where it could use a more powerful version surpassing the original Particle Dismantling Jutsu.

A gigantic and incomparable cube tore through the empty space, an enhanced version of the original Boundary Corrosion Technique. Even the Wood Clone of Uchiha Madara’s Susanoo was wiped out in one breath.

“Is this the enhanced version of the Particle Dismantling Jutsu? Indeed, impressive. I really have to say you’re a genius. It’s been such a short time since the elimination of the powerful bloodline, yet you’ve already reached this level. I’m starting to think I don’t want to kill you so soon. Killing you too early would be boring. Maybe allowing you to continue growing for a while will make this game we’re playing, called ‘Dominating the Ninja World,’ more interesting.”

Ryoha’s words further infuriated Deidara. Deidara wasn’t a fool; on the contrary, he was very clever. He displayed his intelligence and adaptability in his battle with Gaara and the battle against Konoha ninjas during the battle with the Three-Tails.

Deidara immediately understood what Ryoha meant by the so-called game of ‘Dominating the Ninja World.’ The mutual struggles among the Five Great Countries and the Akatsuki were all just a game for Ryoha, and this included Deidara, the Akatsuki, and even the deceased Sasori and others.
