Devil Fruit Seal in Naruto

Chapter 24: Chapter 23 : Dragon's Breath!!



Boom! Boom!

Suddenly, several loud explosions rang out one after another.

Kakuzu, unable to move his body, watched in shock as Uchiha Raizen stomped the ground like a madman.

He rushed forward like a violent tornado, unstoppable wherever he went.

"This kid has gone crazy! Stop him!"

Luckily, the two-headed monsters he had summoned were still nearby and could act on their own.

They hurried to block the way in front of Kakuzu.

"Fire Release: Head Carving Strike!"

"Wind Release: Crushing Pressure!"

"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"

"Water Release: Water Curtain!"

Four powerful nature-based jutsus attacked Uchiha Raizen at the same time.

But Uchiha Raizen seemed not to notice; he didn't stop or slow down at all.

The flames burned his body, only turning his dragon scales a bit red.

The high-pressure wind blasted against him but failed to break through; he resisted it with sheer toughness.

Lightning ran through his body, and water jutsu also hit him, causing an electric shock effect.

Finally, the electric current broke through his scales and shocked his cells inside.

That numbness and soreness—how to say it—his cells actually seemed to cheer and jump with joy.

After being damaged, they quickly recovered; it was a long-lost pleasure!

So that's it. 

This is the vitality and regeneration power given by the Mythical Zoan Blue Dragon.

No wonder Kaidou craved war so much!

Uchiha Raizen howled at the sky. The dragon-shaped mark on his chest radiated high-energy heat.

His speed did not slow down but increased, breaking through the four great ninjutsu in an instant.

He arrived right in front of Kakuzu.

"No... no way!!"

Kakuzu could hardly believe his eyes.

Is this guy really a Tailed Beast? No, even Tailed Beasts shouldn't be immune to so many ninjutsu.

What kind of monster is he?!

"Dragons have a reverse scale; touching it means death. Kakuzu, today I'm taking your life!"

Uchiha Raizen held his club with both hands, lightning swirling around it as he smashed it down hard.

He wanted to crush Kakuzu's head and heart completely!

"Kid, don't get too cocky!"

But Kakuzu was still Kakuzu—the longest-living ninja in the ninja world. Thanks to the two-headed monster buying him some time, he managed to break free from the genjutsu at the last moment.

"Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"

His real body was a heart made of earth, so he could only defend with earth-style jutsu.

A thick rock wall rose from the ground.

Uchiha Raizen snorted coldly, his spiked club still powerful. With a loud crash, he smashed the rock wall, striking the top of Kakuzu's head.

Crack!

Kakuzu's head exploded like a watermelon, but no brain matter spilled out—only black lines appeared.

At the center of those black lines was a beating heart, Kakuzu's most deadly weak point.

Uchiha Raizen raised his foot, now shaped like a dragon's claw, and stomped down.

But the black lines slipped underground.

Just as Uchiha Raizen was about to smash the entire surface to pieces, the annoying masked monster appeared again.

His patience was completely gone.

He threw down his club and decided to destroy the four hearts first.

He stretched out both hands, ignoring attacks of thunder and flames, grabbed the two-headed monster formed from fire and wind releases, and slammed its heads against the ground, rubbing them.

The two monsters fired continuous fire and wind attacks at close range into Uchiha Raizen's palms, causing burning pain and sharp stings.

"Die!"

Uchiha Raizen ignored everything. He suddenly clenched his palm tightly and crushed the masks of the two monsters, smashing their hearts directly.

"Damn it, you actually destroyed both of my hearts at once..."

Kakuzu, who had crawled out from underground, looked extremely grim.

Although he escaped danger, his earth-style body was badly injured, with cracks appearing in his heart. He had almost no strength left to fight back.

He couldn't help but want to retreat.

Uchiha Raizen was too strange. Kakuzu had lived for nearly a hundred years but had never seen such a bizarre ninja. If the fight continued, he might really die at this kid's hands.

"First, retract lightning and water masks. Find a chance to retreat."

Kakuzu loved money, but he loved his life even more.

Uchiha Raizen saw Kakuzu's plan and grew even more furious. He growled:

"Want to run? I already said, today I want your life!"

A dragon's roar echoed loudly, deafening everyone.

Uchiha Raizen's aura kept rising sharply.

Two rugged dragon horns even grew from his forehead.

His body grew taller too, from over two meters to three, then four meters.

This shocking scene stunned Kakuzu, as well as Asuma and Kurenai watching from a distance.

At first, Asuma and Kurenai wanted to help Uchiha Raizen, but the recent earth-shaking battle made them realize going in now would only cause more trouble.

Uchiha Raizen's true power was beyond their imagination!

"What is that kid trying to do now?"

Kakazu's face was as cold as water. He couldn't understand where Uchiha Raizen's power was coming from.

Is it a Tailed Beast transformation?

Obviously not, because he didn't sense any Tailed Beast level chakra at all.

That meant Uchiha Raizen's power wasn't from a Tailed Beast. His blue scales on the body and the horn on his forehead had nothing to do with the Tailed Beasts.

That was strange.

Even Kakazu, with all his knowledge and experience, had never seen such a freak.

In fact, Uchiha Raizen was transforming further, his appearance becoming more like Kaido's Human-Beast Form.

At the same time, he felt as if a ball of rage was blocking his chest, unable to be released.

He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, using all his strength to push that fire from his chest up to his throat.

Suddenly, his mouth felt as hot as molten lava. Instinctively, he opened it, and a huge pillar of scorching flames burst out violently.

The flame pillar moved incredibly fast, much faster than ordinary fire ninjutsu, and its magma-like heat left a scorching white mark in the air.

This—

Was clearly the Dragon's Breath, strong enough to burn down a mountain and pierce through an island!!
