Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

A terrifying crack appeared in the ground.

Chapter 273 You Will Go to Hell

The cracks in the ground stretched for hundreds of meters.

This level of destructive power is already at the level of a tailed beast.

After blocking the final puppet's attack, Lei Qiu dispelled the protective shield in front of him, gripped the lightning longsword with both hands, and with a flash, transformed into a bolt of lightning, appeared behind the final puppet and slashed down.

"Click~".

"Boom!"

With a single strike, lightning dissipated, cleaving the final puppet in two.

The blade's edge flew thousands of meters, and thousands of meters away, a small mountain, tens of meters high, was instantly cleaved in two.

Wherever the blade passed, buildings and the ground were cleaved in two.

It has been spreading for thousands of meters.

Although Lei Qiu's body is enormous, it is extremely fast, possessing the speed of lightning.

It can be said that the speed and destructive power of the Thunder Prisoner are even stronger than those of ordinary tailed beasts, and are even comparable to the complete Nine-Tails.

The final puppet, which had been split in two, was quickly reassembled under the energy output of the dragon vein.

However, Lei Qiu wouldn't let him off so easily. With a wave of his hand, dozens of giant chains woven from lightning bound the final puppet, while another section of the chain wound around countless high-rise buildings.

Lei Qiu gripped his longsword with both hands and slashed down again.

It will be the final puppet's already reconstructed body that is cut in half again.

Centipede frowned. In the end, the puppet was bound by dozens of chains, but the puppet was not only capable of physical combat.

"Try my chakra cannon."

Under Centipede's control, the puppet's dozen or so arms eventually came together, forming a giant cannon that contained a massive amount of chakra from the Dragon Vein.

"Go to hell."

The chakra cannon gathers chakra very quickly, completing a cannonball in just one second.

"Boom!"

With the chakra cannon fired.

A blue beam of chakra shot towards Lei Qiu.

Lei Qiu stepped back a few steps, raised his hands, and conjured a shield that could completely cover his entire body.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the pillar of chakra light and the lightning shield collided.

The escaping energy shockwaves reduced everything within a radius of several kilometers to ruins.

Everything in the entire city of Loulan was reduced to ruins.

A huge crater, hundreds of meters long, appeared on the ground.

Meanwhile, Yu Ming, Minato Namikaze, and the other three had already used the Flying Thunder God Technique to appear several thousand meters away.

Watching the battle unfold hundreds of meters away.

The smoke and dust rose up to hundreds of meters into the air, and an energy shockwave traveled thousands of meters away.

Its destructive power surpasses, if not greater than, the energy shockwave generated when the wooden golem wielded the Tailed Beast Ball and smashed it against the Tailed Beast during the battle between Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju.

Minato Namikaze was also seeing this level of intensity in a war for the first time.

If this destructive power were to be used by the Centipede in the Third Shinobi World War, it would trigger a crisis for the Five Great Nations.

This level of destructive power is even comparable to a large Tailed Beast Ball.

Minato Namikaze looked at Yu Ming and was horrified to find that Yu Ming's Lightning Prison could withstand such destructive power, although the shield formed by the Lightning Prison had been shattered.

Furthermore, Lei Qiu had already retreated dozens of steps, pushing himself hundreds of meters away from the final puppet.

However, Lei Qiu's chakra did not weaken at all.

Yu Ming looked at Lei Qiu and smiled, "It seems that Lei Qiu's ability to withstand blows is quite good."

Akimichi Choza and Aburame Shiya were completely stunned, unable to believe that a battle of this caliber would occur in the ninja world.

What kind of terrifying person could instigate a battle of this magnitude?

Will the next generation be this powerful?

Fortunately, this powerful person was a Konoha ninja.

Looking at Yu Ming's calm gaze, the two felt a sense of admiration. At only sixteen years old, Yu Ming already possessed such terrifying power.

Minato Namikaze discovered during this battle that he was unable to intervene.

He was no longer capable of participating in a battle of this level.

If he had the Nine-Tails' chakra, that would be fine, but he doesn't.

Lei Qiu, who had retreated hundreds of meters, roared and conjured a shield and a long sword in his hands.

They charged toward the final puppet.

Ultimately, all the thousands of arms around the puppet fired small chakra cannons at Lei Qiu.

"Buzz~".

"Boom!"

Thousands of small chakra beams continuously bombarded Lei Qiu's body.

However, most of the chakra beams were blocked by the shield.

The few chakra beams that struck Lei Qiu were completely unable to cause any damage to his body.

He withstood the bombardment of thousands of chakra beams and charged towards the final puppet.

Just as he was about to swing his long sword and slash, countless arms flew out from the final puppet, each arm ending in a sharp steel cone.

A golden light flashed in Lei Qiu's eyes. He dodged all the arms with a swift movement, and with a single strike, the puppet was finally cut in two again.

Just as the puppets were about to reassemble, Lei Qiu, who had appeared above the final puppet, clapped his hands together, and a violent bolt of lightning descended from the sky, connecting with Lei Qiu.

Then a pillar of lightning several meters thick condensed in front of Lei Qiu.

"Sizzle sizzle~".

Terrifying lightning gathered, and a scorching sensation even filled the air.

The terrifying pillar of lightning disintegrated the surrounding air and created a terrifying magnetic field.

"Boom!"

Lei Qiu moved extremely fast, shooting out the pillar of lightning the instant before the final puppet was fully assembled.

A terrifying beam of light crashed down.

30 Centipedes was completely stunned. "Impossible! Why would this thing possess such terrifying ninjutsu?"

Just as he was about to create a barrier to resist, the lightning bolt struck down.

"Boom!"

The terrifying power of the lightning pillar instantly shattered the final puppet.

However, the land within hundreds of meters of the lightning pillar was blasted into dust.

The dissipation of energy caused the area within thousands of meters to be enveloped in the powerful destructive force of the lightning pillar, which ultimately created a giant crater tens of meters deep and hundreds of meters wide where the puppet stood.

Beside it, the altar of the dragon vein was exposed.

The pure chakra made Yu Ming's gaze narrow slightly.

Almost instantly, Yu Ming appeared beside the Dragon Vein.

Without even looking, Yu Ming severed the chakra thread connecting the centipede and the dragon vein with a single stroke.

His consciousness quickly became blurred.

His life depended entirely on the chakra supplied by the dragon vein, but after Yu Ming cut off his chakra supply, his life force quickly began to wither.

As his consciousness grew increasingly blurred, he looked at Yu Ming's retreating figure and thought, "That bastard, that bastard, he ruined my plan that I've been working on for over a decade! That damned guy, you'll go to hell!"

Chapter 274 Returning to Konoha

But before that, the centipede turned to ashes.

The final puppet, which was originally preparing to be reassembled, was completely reduced to fragments.

Lei Qiu was also dispelled by Yu Ming.

Soon, Minato Namikaze and the others arrived at Yu Ming's side.

The dragon vein went berserk without the centipede's ability to absorb its energy.

Just like the tailed beasts, the dragon veins also went berserk.

A violent earthquake was occurring nearby.

This was caused by the dragon vein going berserk.

Standing beside the dragon vein, Yu Ming calmly looked at Minato Namikaze.

Minato Namikaze nodded.

Yu Ming began to form hand seals.

He pulled out two kunai for the Flying Thunder God Technique from his ninja tool bag.

Minato Namikaze looked at Yu Ming and smiled, "It seems that Yu Ming has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique quite well."

Yu Ming's hand seals were formed very quickly; he completed the Flying Thunder God Space-Time Seal with over forty seals in the blink of an eye.

"Flying Thunder God Space-Time Seal".

Using teleportation, he instantly appeared at the altar within the dragon vein and planted two Flying Thunder God kunai into the dragon's eye.

At that moment, countless mysterious runes erupted from the Flying Thunder God Kunai, and these runes began to spread.
