Chapter 102: Annihilation — Senbonzakura Kageyoshi
The screen froze on the image of Yuichi stepping on Shukaku's head, pointing his Zanpakutō at the beast. The gaze of Shukaku, lying on the ground, changed rapidly.
This human! This bug! He called me a bastard? I am a Tailed Beast, the One Tail Shukaku! To be stepped on and spoken to in such an arrogant tone...
Damn, damn, damn...
"Human... you are looking for death..."
Boom!!
The Tailed Beast Chakra erupted suddenly, and the red light sweeping out instantly enveloped Shukaku's body. The wind howled, cracks appearing on the ground instantly. Dust spread and swept across half of Sunagakure in the blink of an eye. Ripples of raw power distorted the air. Shukaku's anger had erupted. The Tailed Beast was enraged again, and the ninjas had no time to panic.
Buzz!
A white blade of light fell from the sky! It slashed onto Shukaku's forehead like a thunderbolt.
Holding his Zanpakutō in mid-air, Yuichi's eyes burst with astonishing killing intent. As the sword slashed at Shukaku's head, the collision between Chakra and Reiatsu caused even more terrifying shockwaves. Dazzling light spread, and Yuichi's body was bounced away as the Tailed Beast took two steps back, its huge body stomping on the ground. Although not critically injured, Shukaku felt the pain and became even more furious.
"Bastard! I'm going to swallow you... Die!"
"Wind Style: Drilling Air Bullet!!"
Bang bang bang!!!
Compressed air cannons burst out one after another, lining up in a straight trajectory toward Yuichi.
Yuichi stopped suddenly in the air, a cold light shooting from his slightly narrowed eyes. The Zanpakutō danced. The ear-piercing sound of metal clashing rang out as successive slashes easily blocked the air bullets fired by Shukaku. The fierce gas exploded, and the impact was amazing.
Everyone around was blown back a hundred meters. A large number of houses were instantly destroyed under the shockwave—dozens flattened in a single blow. Unexpectedly, Shukaku's Drilling Air Bullet was blocked so easily by Yuichi. This frightened many people; it was a Tailed Beast! Since when were attacks from a Tailed Beast so easy to block?
In the next second, Shukaku's sharp claws slammed down toward Yuichi.
Clang!
Intense airflow and sparks erupted at the same time. Standing in mid-air, Yuichi blocked Shukaku's claw with one hand and his Zanpakutō. Shukaku didn't seem to think that the power of a human could be compared with its own. The opponent didn't dodge, but simply blocked the slap with raw strength.
Impossible! How can humans have power comparable to Tailed Beasts?
Hiss!
Taking a deep breath, Shukaku opened its mouth, wanting to spit out another air bullet. However, Yuichi didn't intend to give him the chance.
Shunpo!!! Swish!!
His figure disappeared suddenly. Shukaku's eyes shrank, and then there was a terrifying impact sound.
Boom!!! Buzz...
Yuichi's fist slammed hard into Shukaku's stomach. Instead of the Zanpakutō, he used his fist. Reiatsu and Haki broke out at the same time. The power of this punch made Shukaku take a step back, and the air bullets forming in its mouth dissipated.
Boom!!
Before Shukaku could finish cursing, Yuichi appeared before its face and kicked its jaw. The huge Shukaku rose from the ground! Its body was lifted into the air. The slash wasn't the only amazing thing; Yuichi had kicked a Tailed Beast flying with brute force.
This shocked the eyes of countless viewers. What terrifying power!
Yuichi's figure disappeared again the moment Shukaku flew into the air. The sound of the Zanpakutō piercing the air suddenly appeared in everyone's ears. At the same time, a huge slashing wave tore through the void from the sky at high speed, landing on Shukaku's body.
The light of the blade struck, and Shukaku, who had just been knocked airborne, hit the ground fiercely. The Chakra light on its body became weaker under the impact of Yuichi's slash, but it still did not break through the absolute defense of the Chakra.
Yuichi squinted. "The skin... is very thick! Let's see just how thick you are!"
Standing in the sky, Yuichi raised his Zanpakutō, pointing it downward.
"Scatter, Senbonzakura!"
The Zanpakutō turned into petals and scattered. In the next second, cherry blossoms suddenly appeared and filled the entire sky. After Shikai, Yuichi's Reiatsu surged again. And this time, it wasn't just a surge; the increase in density made the Reiatsu overwhelming. The resulting pressure instantly pinned the Chūnins below to the ground.
The terrifying pressure made Doflamingo and the others struggle to adapt. Whitebeard felt Yuichi's power now and recalled the time when the boy used this trick before; the feeling then was completely different. The power this brat exploded with after being angry was on another level!
The number of cherry blossoms in the sky also seemed to have more than doubled.
Yuichi pointed a long, narrow finger at the beast lying on the ground. His face radiated a chill that felt palpable. The cherry blossoms swaying in the wind flocked to Shukaku in an instant! Flowers fell all over the sky, and these blade fragments kept cutting towards the beast.
Shukaku still didn't understand—what was this thing?
In the next second, Senbonzakura hit the Chakra on its body. The Chakra was consumed at high speed, making Shukaku feel a sense of dread. It struggled to get up, but Senbonzakura wrapped it tightly, keeping up the cutting and tearing. Despite being protected by the Tailed Beast Chakra, the pain caused by the impact made Shukaku howl continuously.
Shukaku the One Tail! When had a Tailed Beast ever looked so miserable? Listening to the continuous howling of the beast, the ninjas lying on the ground shuddered. This pervert had actually forced a Tailed Beast to this point.
"Can you still block it?"
Yuichi's face became even colder. Everyone in the auditorium shuddered.
"This guy doesn't seem satisfied?"
"It's the first time I've seen a Tailed Beast being tortured so miserably!"
"But he seems to be planning to continue..."
As they spoke, the sky full of cherry blossoms disappeared. Senbonzakura reappeared in Yuichi's hands. It was held in a reverse grip, with the point of the knife facing the ground. Seeing this action and posture, everyone suddenly thought of the terrifying scene of countless flowers flying and thousands of blade fragments swirling. That was the move—a technique that even Jiraiya, one of the Sannin using Sage Mode, couldn't resist!
"Bankai."
"Senbonzakura Kageyoshi."
A cold voice came from Yuichi's throat. Senbonzakura fell from his hands. For a moment, the weird scene reappeared. Senbonzakura seemed to fall into a lake and disappear, and behind Yuichi appeared rows of huge blades rising from the ground below.
The wind blew gently, and the blades dissipated! They turned into cherry blossoms and floated in the air.
Over Sunagakure, thousands of petals were falling. This seemingly desolate village was now full of spring. The Sand Shinobi were all stunned. Sunagakure had never looked like this. If only these weren't terrible weapons, the scene would be beautiful.
But such a beautiful picture made people feel a faint chill...
