Chapter 217: Fighting Out of the Hidden Cloud Village
Lu Li felt that his current strength should be at the regular Kage level in the ninja world. It would be very difficult to kill the Raikage in a one-on-one combat. After all, there is no martial arts in the world that is indestructible except speed.
The speed of the Raikage is too fast and can completely suppress him in this area. Outsiders may think that he and the Raikage are fighting at the same speed, but that is because outsiders cannot see clearly whether it is his or the Raikage's movements.
In fact, Lu Li was just passively accepting attacks most of the time, and it was too difficult for him to actively catch up with the Raikage.
Moreover, the Hidden Cloud Village is very powerful, and more and more elite ninjas are rushing here. Once Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, arrives, it will be very troublesome for him to leave.
With this thought in mind, Lu Li increased the speed of his sword. The blade shone with a cold light, cutting off a large amount of the Raikage's chakra.
He activated the active skill of the Soul Eater Ring, combined with the passive skill of the Demon Prisoner, and each strike of his sword caused real damage. He broke through the Raikage's Lightning Armor and caused effective damage to him, while absorbing the opponent's soul source.
For ninjas, it means they can absorb part of the opponent's chakra.
However, there is a certain difference between chakra and soul source itself. It seems that they cannot be perfectly replaced during absorption and conversion, so the amount of soul source in Lu Li's body is not much.
After the Raikage realized that Lu Li was able to reduce his soul source value, he was not shaken at all, because he had known about Lu Li's strange ability for a long time.
When he fought with Lu Li in the past, he was also troubled by this move of Lu Li, but at that time he had Killer Bee by his side. If Killer Bee resisted, Lu Li could absorb the chakra at will. For the "rich and powerful" Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, the loss of a little chakra was not a big deal at all.
But it seems a bit troublesome to use this ability alone against him, the Raikage. After all, although his chakra is huge, it is not comparable to the tailed beasts.
As if they had noticed that Lord Raikage was in a tough fight, the elite jonin of Kumogakure attacked one after another, releasing lightning-style ninjutsu towards Lu Li.
"Idiot, stop it!"
The Raikage roared loudly upon seeing this. He had wanted to curse when Darui attacked before, but he was too nervous to remind him due to the battle. Fortunately, he saw that Lu Li was also very cautious about the black thunder he had never seen before and used some defensive ninjutsu.
But the Raikage who had personally fought with Lu Li knew best that the terrifying thing about Lu Li's bloodline limit was that he could ignore the damage caused by thunder!
No, not only did he ignore it, he was able to absorb it!
boom--
Intensive thunder bombarded Lu Li, creating a loud noise that could be heard throughout the Hidden Cloud Village. The ground collapsed and debris flew in all directions. Lu Li walked out of the smoke and dust, unharmed.
Not only that, the soul source he had just consumed in the battle had also been replenished by the power bank in the Hidden Cloud Village.
"Don't use Lightning Escape to attack him directly, young men. Don't you know why he is called Natural Disaster?!"
The Raikage roared, thinking that the young ninjas in the village were really lagging behind. How did they learn in the ninja school? He remembered that natural disasters were written in history books.
"Excuse me, where is Lord Kirabi?"
Samui frowned slightly when she saw this. She realized that regular Lightning Release Ninjas would be of no use in this battle and would only make the battle more difficult for Lord Raikage.
To deal with a ninja like Lu Li who can absorb lightning, the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village can basically only rely on powerful physical skills to defeat him.
Just like Lord Raikage knew that Lu Li's demon sword could absorb people's chakra, but he still chose close combat, because only in the lightning chakra mode and using extremely fast physical skills could he kill Lu Li.
If it was a long-range lightning attack, it would just be helping Lu Li recover his chakra.
At this time, Lu Li walked out of the smoke and dust, moved his neck left and right, making a sound of crackling muscles and bones, grinned to reveal a mouthful of white teeth, and glanced at the Kumogakure ninjas surrounding him from all directions, "It feels quite comfortable, keep going."
The reason why he released the Dankong to block Darui's attack just now was not because he wanted to mislead the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village. He was not Shinquan. He just couldn't see clearly what Darui released towards him, so he blocked it for safety reasons.
After all, the opponent is a Storm Release bloodline ninja. If he attacks with Storm Release, he might get hurt.
Well, most likely he was only slightly injured. After all, he now had Armament Haki Ryusakura + Ice Cloud Armor + Midnight Walker, which had maxed out his defense. It would still be difficult for the young Darui's ninjutsu to break his defense.
He was cautious on the one hand, but more importantly, he didn't want the other person to dirty his new clothes.
Under the puzzled gazes of the Raikage and others, he not only took out the Demon Prisoner, but also changed the prisoner uniform into a pitch-black windbreaker. For a moment, everyone suspected that he also knew some kind of space ninjutsu.
"Crazy boy!"
The Raikage roared and rushed forward. Now it was no longer a question of who was weaker or stronger. The strength displayed by Lu Li had already seriously threatened the safety of the Hidden Cloud Village. As the Raikage, he had to kill Lu Li as soon as possible to prevent the disaster from further expanding.
At the moment when the prisoner demon collided with the steel arm, the two people wrapped in lightning looked at each other. Lei Ying saw the fighting spirit and a hint of regret in Lu Li's eyes.
While the Raikage was confused, thunder surged around Lu Li's body. At the same time, thunder struck down from the sky without warning, carpet bombing the elite ninjas surrounding Lu Li.
"Boy, stop it!"
The Raikage shouted angrily, not all Kumogakure ninjas were so "weak", even if Lu Li casually dropped lightning, it was deadly enough for ordinary ninjas.
Even an elite Lightning Release ninja could be paralyzed if hit directly by it, thus ruining his future ninja career.
However, Lu Li would not listen to the Raikage's orders. Since they had already fallen out, if he wanted to break out of the Hidden Cloud Village, then these people would be potential enemies.
Being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself. He felt a powerful aura coming towards this side. It should be Kirabi. He could not delay any longer.
The angry Raikage was wrapped in the Lightning Armor, his speed increased to the limit, and he moved across the field like a flash of lightning.
At this moment, even Lu Li's dynamic vision could not capture the Raikage at all. He could only rely on his observation Haki to feel carefully and predict the Raikage's attack.
Lu Li fought and retreated, trying to break through to the weakest blockade. As long as he left the Cloud Hidden Village's base camp, he had the final say on whether to advance or retreat. Of course, he didn't refuse the other party's conditions to fight simply because he wanted to fight with the Raikage. If he just wanted to escape, he could just pretend to agree and leave the Cloud Hidden Village.
He fought with the Raikage in order to plant a seed to see if it could take root and sprout, and bring him more benefits.
"I'm really troubled by not being able to come up with new words~ I was about to arrive when a message was sent~ Only to find that the Raikage Building had already exploded~ I now express my condolences for the scene~"
At this time, a figure came from the periphery, took off and landed on the Yunyin building, and quickly approached the battlefield at the Raikage Building.
When people along the way saw this figure, they all showed surprise and trust in their eyes, because the person who came was the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of the Hidden Cloud Village and the good brother of the Fourth Raikage - Killer Bee.
Unlike Konoha, the discrimination against Jinchūriki in the Hidden Cloud Village is not that serious. In addition, Killer Bee is a perfect Jinchūriki who had made great military achievements in his early years and has long been recognized by the villagers.
At this time, the Raikage was fighting with the Calamity, and Killer Bee rushed to the battlefield, calming people's uneasy hearts.
"Bi! Use your tentacles to block his path!"
Upon noticing Killer Bee's arrival, the Raikage no longer cared about the dishonor of fighting two against one and shouted.
When Lu Li saw Kirabi working hard, he sighed in his heart, knowing that this joyful battle would come to an end.
He was alone and there was no way he could withstand the combined output of the Raikage and Killer Bee, especially since he had no idea if there were other explorers inside the Hidden Cloud Village. If he revealed his flaws and was ambushed, it would be a waste of time.
He had achieved the purpose of his initial fight, so he prepared to retreat, taking a flash step and was about to take off into the air and rush out of the Hidden Cloud Village.
The Raikage would not let Lu Li, the war criminal who blew up his Raikage Building, go. Seeing that Lu Li tried to run, the Raikage chased him and slashed at Lu Li's neck with the extremely fast Lei Li Plow and hot knife, trying to cut Lu Li off with divine speed.
Just when his arm was about to touch the back of Lu Li's neck, Lu Li disappeared in his surprised eyes.
At the same time, a huge sense of crisis descended upon the Raikage, and he subconsciously used his legs to jump up, trying to dodge at an extremely fast speed.
His perception was correct, because after using the flash skill of Stepping Cloud, Lu Li traveled right behind the Raikage and slashed at the Raikage's neck with a knife!
Plans cannot keep up with changes. If Lu Li has a chance to kill the Raikage in a fight, he will never show mercy. The opponent will at least give him 10% of the world exploration, and there is a possibility that a treasure chest of epic level or above will drop.
The Raikage's judgment at the critical moment saved his life. He jumped up after sensing the crisis, and due to his extremely fast speed, he dodged the vital parts, but he was unable to avoid it completely.
The sharp Prisoner's Blade slashed through his right leg, completely cutting off the part below the calf!
"Ai!"
Kirabi, who had surrounded them, was so shocked and angry when he saw this scene that he shouted out his brother's name in desperation.
He immediately transformed into a half-tailed beast and extended several tentacles to block Lu Li's attack route, preventing Lu Li from making further moves and directly killing his brother.
Two ninja swords were shot out at the same time, aiming at Lu Li's face. While doing this, the Tailed Beast Ball was already accumulating power.
"Bi, don't use that trick!"
The Raikage reluctantly withdrew one leg and used lightning to shock the wound, stopping the heavy bleeding.
This is the Hidden Cloud Village, how can we use the Tailed Beast Ball? That would hurt the enemy by a thousand and hurt ourselves by eight hundred.
Facing Kirabi's tentacles, Lu Li slashed with his sword, cutting off several tentacles at once. At the same time, an electric current surged, paralyzing Kirabi for a moment.
He moved left and right, dodged the ninja sword shot by Killer Bee, and instantly took off into the air, running towards the outskirts of the Hidden Cloud Village.
The ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village along the way could only stare blankly at Lu Li running in the sky. After all, they couldn't fly, and they couldn't use Lightning Release Ninjutsu to attack Lu Li, as that would only charge Lu Li.
Killer Bee was worried about Ai's condition and missed the chance to chase and blockade him at the first moment. He could only watch Lu Li running farther and farther, and soon he was out of the range of the Hidden Cloud Village.
"Idiot, Bee, why don't you chase him!?"
The Raikage hammered the ground angrily, "Do you know what kind of person we let go!?"
"Your leg……"
Killer Bee looked at his brother's broken calf and was silent. For the Fourth Raikage, who was famous for his speed, once his leg was broken, he would be like a tiger without teeth.
"It's okay. The incision is very neat and I treated it in time. I can ask the medical team to reconnect it for me."
When the Raikage saw Killer Bee's expression, he knew that his brother missed the opportunity because he was worried about him, so he didn't want to continue to blame him.
"Scourge... is he that dangerous? I didn't think he was that strong eight years ago."
Kirabi looked at the direction where Lu Li was retreating in confusion. He stood up and picked up his brother's short legs with a heavy heart.
Although Ai said that he could have a medical ninja reattach his leg, he knew that a broken leg would never be as good as it was originally and would have various side effects.
There might be medical ninjas in the ninja world who could help reattach the brother's leg without leaving any sequelae, but they don't have such people in the Hidden Cloud Village.
