"Bastard, what did you say?"
Hearing Sora's words, A flew into a rage!
As his mood fluctuated, the Chakra around him erupted like fireworks, with crackling golden lightning flashes exploding around him, arcs of electricity running wild!
"Hmm?" Watching the golden lightning arcs around A, Sora frowned slightly.
'I remembered that A's Lightning Release shouldn't be this color of lightning?'
'What's going on?'
Sora became more attentive.
But on the surface, he remained completely unfazed.
Then Sora continued speaking, provoking the Fourth Raikage: "What, is there a problem with what I said?"
"The Third Raikage of old, in order to preserve the village's future, single-handedly intercepted the Iwagakure's Ninja Army, fighting ten thousand Ninjas for three days and three nights until he exhausted himself and died."
"Such a hero, even I in Kirigakure admire and respect him."
"But you?"
As he spoke, Sora looked at the plasma and the ruins of Kumogakure's buildings around them. A clear sneer appearing on his face as Sora said slowly:
"Using your own subordinates to wear me down, while you hide on the sidelines and don't show yourself."
"Fourth Raikage, if I didn't know better, I'd think you were Konoha's 'Darkness of the Ninja World'!"
The slow, deliberate tone, combined with the obvious facts, made this remark a devastating blow.
"Grrrrrah, how dare you compare me to that bastard Danzo!"
"Danzo, how can he compare to me?"
"I would sacrifice everything for the village, can he say the same?"
A glared fiercely at Sora.
At the same time, hearing Sora's words, the golden lightning flashes on A's body intensified!
Watching that golden lightning, Sora focused his senses, a faintly familiar fluctuation reaching him!
Just a little more, just a bit more, and he would grasp that aura!
"Hah!" A mocking smile lifted the corner of Sora's mouth:
"Anyone can talk big. But, you know, that Danzo also claimed he could sacrifice everything for the village. Yet when I killed him, everyone else had the Reverse Four Symbol Sealing implanted on themselves, except him!"
"And you..."
Sora looked at A, not finishing the sentence.
However, his meaning was obvious!
Hearing this, the already short-tempered A finally exploded!
"Raaaaaagh!" A, his body shimmering with golden lightning, let out a roar of fury!
However, A was still the Raikage. After venting his anger, he actually calmed down.
"Hmph, according to the battle reports, Yuki Sora was always a cold-faced god of death!"
"It seems now you're just a sharp-tongued brat!"
A adopted a calm expression: "Speaking of which, Fourth Mizukage-dono, you suddenly came to Kumogakure and attacked my Ninjas without reason. You must give me an explanation for this!"
"Explanation?" Sora shook his head. Having probed A's trump card, he couldn't be bothered to explain.
Moreover, A was being unusually talkative today, which was suspicious. After expanding his sensing, Sora understood why.
"Fourth Raikage, after stalling for so long, hasn't your Chakra Cannon locked on yet?"
Yes, not only the unusual golden lightning, but also the Chakra Cannon, which in the original work wasn't developed by Kumogakure until over a decade later in the final movie, had actually been created by Kumogakure now!
Hearing Sora's words, A's face showed an expression other than anger for the first time!
"You even discovered that?"
"Just as the intelligence said, Yuki Sora, you are not only a Kage-level powerhouse but also possess superhuman sensing abilities!"
As he spoke, a look of suspicion appeared in A's eyes: "Years ago, at Uzushiogakure, Kirigakure also participated. You couldn't be Kirigakure's result from that, could you?"
"Uzushiogakure? What does that have to do with anything?"
Sora didn't understand why the Fourth Raikage's train of thought jumped so erratically.
Generally speaking, the more bizarre something sounds, the less likely it is to be made up.
In other words, the Fourth Raikage genuinely believed this!
'Uzushiogakure, Uzushiogakure...' Staring at the Fourth Raikage, recalling the earlier lightning, Sora became thoughtful.
Then, he finally identified what that familiar aura was!
It was the aura of a certain kind of foreign Adamantine Sealing Chains! Adamantine Sealing Chains, mixed with extremely dense Yang Release Chakra, added to his original Lightning Release Chakra Mode… this was the current A!
'Interesting!' Sora nodded inwardly. He hadn't expected A to gain stronger ability from the things of Uzushiogakure.
In that case, the thing that had always been targeting him also seemed very clear.
'Hmph, Sage of Six Paths, if you're dead, then stay dead. Stop meddling in the affairs of the living!'
'Fine, since you like to interfere so much, don't blame me for cutting off your hand!'
Then, before the talkative A could say anything more, Sora suddenly drew his sword!
Hyorinmaru: Ice Dragon Tail!
A massive amount of water surged forth as Hyorinmaru left its sheath, then instantly froze!
A powerful freezing slash engulfed A!
