Chapter 357: Chapter 285: Do You Think My Lariat Is Authentic?

"So fast!"

In that instant when Uehara Naraku struck, Killer Bee had just seen Uehara Naraku appear in front of him, and then felt a sharp pain in his chest!

Killer Bee was kicked and sent tumbling into the air!

The Fourth Raikage, A, suddenly moved to catch Killer Bee, preventing him from crashing into the crowd: "Hey, Bee, how are you?"

"Feels... like I’m still alive."

Killer Bee reached out to rub his chest, a trickle of blood appearing at the corner of his mouth: "Big brother, that guy’s speed..."

As he said this, Killer Bee spat out a large mouthful of blood!

Just as the Fourth Raikage, A, was about to call for a medical ninja, Killer Bee shook his head vigorously and looked at Uehara Naraku in the distance, speaking in a deep voice: "Big brother, I’m fine. We probably need to take him on together!"

"Yeah, I’ve already seen it."

The Fourth Raikage, A, nodded solemnly.

Just now, when Uehara Naraku suddenly launched his attack on Killer Bee, his speed was so quick that even as the fastest Lightning Release Ninja, he couldn’t clearly see his actions.

The Instantaneous Jutsu that Uehara Naraku used just now seemed almost like the Flying Thunder God Jutsu of the past, as Uehara’s figure disappeared, only to reappear instantly beside Killer Bee!

"Is it similar to the Flying Thunder God Jutsu?"

The Fourth Raikage, A, clenched his fist tightly, staring at the enemy who was calmly retracting his leg, his eyes gradually tightening: "No, that’s not right! It’s faster than the Flying Thunder God Jutsu or perhaps more secretive!"

Even Namikaze Minato needed to use the special kunai as a medium for the Flying Thunder God Mark, but Uehara Naraku almost seemed to teleport!

Mafui, the beautiful female ninja from The Hidden Cloud Village, stood beside them, her lips slightly parted in astonishment: "Is the enemy’s strength really such that it requires both Lord Raikage and Lord Killer Bee to team up to fight?"

"Yes."

The Fourth Raikage clenched his fist and looked towards Uehara Naraku in the center of the arena, explaining in a low voice: "Mafui, because that guy just now bested him in speed, Bee’s specialty!"

Killer Bee had been training in the Lightning Release Chakra Mode since he was a child.

When it comes to speed, the AB combo has always been on par.

Furthermore, even with the added boost of the Tailed Beast Chakra Cloak, Killer Bee, in that state, couldn’t withstand Uehara Naraku’s attack.

"Big brother, let’s bump fists!"

Killer Bee clenched his fist, reaching towards the Fourth Raikage with a nostalgic smile on his face: "It’s been a long time since we fought side by side! Just thinking about it is exciting!"

"Is that so?"

The Fourth Raikage extended his fist to bump it against Killer Bee’s, frowning as he said: "The last time was when we faced off against that Namikaze Minato fellow, right?"

"That’s right..."

Killer Bee nodded hastily.

The last time they teamed up against an enemy was the Golden Flash of Konoha, Namikaze Minato, though unfortunately, they were narrowly defeated then.

This time, there will absolutely be no failure!

As the adopted brothers chatted about these things, Uehara Naraku slowly approached them, tilting his head as he asked: "Hmm, is your small talk finished? Are you two ready to accept your fate?"

"Such arrogance!"

Suddenly, a tangible mass of chakra erupted from the Fourth Raikage, electric currents dancing around him, and his hair began to stand on end!

The next instant, his figure vanished from the spot!

A blue lightning bolt flashed and disappeared inside the arena!

This is the full-speed power of the Fourth Raikage, the result of his relentless training over the years, and also his confidence to face Namikaze Minato once again from the past!

His speed alone surpasses that of most in the Ninja World.

No, or rather in the current Ninja World, there are few who can rival the speed of the Fourth Raikage; even if Namikaze Minato were resurrected, he might not have absolute confidence to surpass the Fourth Raikage, his old adversary!

"So fast!"

Uchiha Sasuke could only see a black figure transform into blue lightning and disappear, a look of astonishment crossing his face: "The speed of that Fourth Raikage is so fast, even the Mangekyo Sharingan can’t follow it?"

"..."

If even Uchiha Sasuke’s Sharingan couldn’t track the Raikage’s speed, then Sasori and Deidara had even less chance.

Deidara squinted one eye, using an instrument to try and see the Raikage’s figure with the other eye, but couldn’t capture it no matter what.

On this massive arena.

Everyone only saw one black shadow of the Fourth Raikage vanish, and then another immediately appear, moving with incredible speed akin to teleportation!

Even Killer Bee, who also trained in the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, showed a slight expression of surprise. After all, being the Eight-tailed Jinchuriki, he occasionally trained in techniques like Kenjutsu and couldn’t purely devote himself to speed like his brother!

"Double Lightning... Furious Thunder Axe!"

The Fourth Raikage suddenly charged beside Uehara Naraku, kicking upwards towards Uehara Naraku’s chin: "Kid, stop being so arrogant next time!"

Pata!

Uehara Naraku reached out his palm to grasp the Fourth Raikage’s calf, feeling a massive force driven by immense speed striking against his hand, even Uehara Naraku was inwardly a bit surprised!

"Some people’s efforts are truly commendable."

Uehara Naraku stepped back leisurely, dodging the Raikage’s attack, and lightly praised: "In terms of speed alone, perhaps except for that Konoha ninja named Might Guy, your speed might be the fastest in this Ninja World!"

"..."

The Fourth Raikage swung his fist and chased after him, cursing softly in the air, "When did a brat like you get the right to critique me!"

Smack!

Uehara Naraku’s palm landed on his fist, his voice gradually turning a bit cold, "As long as I’m faster and stronger than you, of course, I have the right to critique you."

"What?"

The Fourth Raikage’s gaze grew increasingly hostile.

What shocked him even more was that Uehara Naraku had effortlessly blocked his fist, which meant Uehara Naraku’s every speed matched him, perhaps even surpassing him!

With one hand, Uehara Naraku twisted the Fourth Raikage’s arm, getting closer to his body, and quickly curled a finger, letting it land on the Fourth Raikage’s forehead!

"Bastard!"

Seeing this humiliating gesture, the Fourth Raikage’s face changed suddenly, angrily saying, "Brat, what do you mean by this, are you insulting me..."

This is a forehead flick!

In the village, when adults were bullying little ones, they loved using their fingers to flick a child’s forehead, indicating that defeating the child only required one finger.

Now, this scoundrel in front of him dared to insult him like this!

Boom!

Uehara Naraku’s finger suddenly flicked out!

A sound erupted from the Fourth Raikage’s forehead, and the next moment, this Raikage was sent flying backward by that one finger!

A swiftly appearing octopus tail wrapped around the Fourth Raikage’s body, saving him from being flicked away by Uehara Naraku’s finger!

Killer Bee barely suppressed a smile on his face, his gaze tightly fixed on the Fourth Raikage’s forehead, softly asking, "Big brother, are you okay?"

"Shut up!"

The Fourth Raikage rubbed his forehead.

The defensive power brought by the Lighting Release Chakra Mode was strong, the physical damage Uehara Naraku caused to him was negligible, but the psychological damage was somewhat severe.

The Fourth Raikage never thought he would be flicked away by someone with just a finger!

If this matter were to spread today, he wouldn’t have any face left in the Ninja World!

Unfortunately, this kind of thing seemed unavoidable to conceal because not far behind them, many ninjas from The Hidden Cloud Village were watching the battle.

Clap clap clap...

"As expected of the Raikage!"

Uehara Naraku withdrew his finger, lightly clapping and praised, "Compared to the Fifth Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village, your strength is indeed superior, at least you made my finger hurt a little..."

"Shut up, brat!"

The Fourth Raikage looked at Uehara Naraku with frustration and turned to glance at Killer Bee, who was trying to stifle a laugh, angrily saying, "Bee, let’s use Double Lariat together, I want that guy’s head cut off!"

"Alright, big brother! No problem, big brother!"

Killer Bee nodded quickly, and the Chakra Armor on his body gradually thickened, attaining a Half-Tailed Beast Transformation state.

Now, to keep up with the Fourth Raikage’s peak speed, Killer Bee could only achieve this by entering the Half-Tailed Beast Transformation!

"About to unleash a big move?"

Uehara Naraku squinted his eyes, observing them, meeting the surprised eyes of the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee, a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Uehara Naraku extended his hand toward the direction of the Raikage, speaking earnestly, "To show respect to you both, I will defeat you with the techniques you excel at best."

A flash of chain appeared from his hand, Uehara Naraku had already used The Way of Others to steal the Fourth Raikage’s strongest technique.

In the next moment.

The three people in the field moved simultaneously!

If the Fourth Raikage’s speed was a bolt of lightning, then Killer Bee’s speed was a red flash, the two of them charged at Uehara Naraku!

"It’s appearing..."

Among the observing Cloud Village Ninja, one usually lazy Cloud Ninja was now seriously watching the battle, murmuring, "It’s Ai and Bee’s unique skill, Double Lariat, capable of absolutely cutting the enemy’s body in half..."

This move could only be used by the AB Combo!

Just when everyone thought Uehara Naraku’s head and body would soon be split in two by the Raikage and Killer Bee’s ultimate move, the bodies of the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee were sent flying backward first!

Just as they were charging, even before they had chosen the correct direction, Uehara Naraku’s figure suddenly appeared between them, opening his arms to collide with each of their chests!

Uehara Naraku’s arms shone with tangible Chakra, directly and fiercely knocking the charging two back with his own arms!

"Double Lariat."

Uehara Naraku softly uttered the name of this Nin-Taijutsu, watching the fallen Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee!

The Fourth Raikage, Ai, and Killer Bee each coughed out blood, even with the protection of the Lighting Release Chakra Mode, their chests were slightly caved in, and even standing up became a luxury.

The move was originally to deal with the enemy.

Unexpectedly, today someone used this move to attack them, performing the Double Lariat with strength alone and defeating both of them!

Uehara Naraku’s face revealed a smile, spreading his arms, saying, "Raikage, does my Double Lariat seem authentic to you?"
