Naruto: My setting is above yours.

Hatake Sakumo paused, then, considering his disciple's abilities, nodded and withdrew his hand.

Orochimaru smiled and said, "Lord Raikage, I believe in Genma-kun's strength."

"This will be a fair one-on-one duel, and it should be a battle that will be remembered throughout the ninja world."

Genma took a step forward, his body also radiating lightning chakra. The lightning crackled as it rubbed against the air.

Orochimaru and many other Konoha ninjas couldn't help but sharpen their gazes.

It is exactly the same as the Third Raikage's Lightning Release.

Genma raised his right hand, and a large amount of lightning chakra gathered in his hand, forming a blazing white ball of light that enveloped his entire palm.

Sage Art - Lightning Release - Lightning Blade!

The Third Raikage's gaze sharpened: "Lightning Release, similar to my technique?"

"Then let this old man see whose moves are stronger!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Third Raikage shot out.

Chapter 88 Injured!

Seeing the Third Raikage charging towards him, Genma suddenly withdrew his Lightning Release Chakra Mode and Lightning Blade, and rapidly formed hand seals.

Like an arrow released from a bow, the Third Raikage's gaze sharpened, and his figure suddenly shifted to the side, escaping Genma's gaze and disappearing.

Magical Net!

The moment the Third Raikage escaped his gaze, Genma completed his genjutsu.

This is an advanced version of the illusion spell "Spider Binding," the result of his long-held desire to transform a single-target immobilization spell into an area-of-effect illusion. It is also a recently completed advanced development.

The Third Raikage found himself frozen in place as soon as he landed. He could sense that he was bound by a giant spider web, which covered him from all sides.

"They couldn't even dodge his illusion!"

The Third Raikage was taken aback.

Information about Yu Feng Xuan Ma mentions that this person is proficient in illusion magic, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

He believed that with his reaction speed and movement speed, even the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan would find it difficult to deal with him using genjutsu.

I never expected that I would fall victim to this trick!

At this moment, most of the spectators were slightly puzzled when they saw the Third Raikage suddenly stop moving, but Fugaku Uchiha, who was also on the battlefield, had already realized: "It's a genjutsu that can immobilize someone!"

"Even at that speed, they were still captured by illusion magic!"

Fugaku Uchiha looked at the Wind-Riding Genma who had just changed his hand seals with surprise, his eyelids twitching: "This technique is..."

"Lord Raikage!"

You Yun suppressed your shock and shouted.

Immediately afterwards, the ground beneath the Third Raikage's feet cracked open, then shattered with a deafening boom, sending shockwaves sweeping outwards.

Almost simultaneously, Xuanma completed his second technique.

Illusion - Darkness Travel Technique!

The Third Raikage, who had just broken free of his restraints, immediately found his world plunged into darkness.

"Ok?"

"Is it another illusion? It completely blocks my vision."

The Third Raikage immediately raised his hand to form a hand seal, and at the same time, he heard his subordinates shouting, "Raikage-sama, be careful!"

His ears twitched slightly; he heard the sound of something cutting through the air—a shuriken.

The moment Genma completed the Dark Walk Technique, he darted out and simultaneously entered his strongest Lightning Release Chakra Mode, his hair standing on end.

Having acquired an indestructible body, he was fully capable of unleashing the Lightning Release of the Fourth Raikage at his peak.

No, it's stronger, because of the boost from Sage Mode.

After entering Lightning Release Chakra Mode, Genma immediately threw out a kunai, which was infused with the power of Lightning Blade.

The reminder issued by the Cloud Ninja was not actually a reminder about the kunai, but rather that Genma had already set off.

The Third Raikage heard the sound of the kunai flying, but instead of dodging immediately, he continued to form hand seals to try to break the genjutsu.

However, to his surprise, the hand seals used to restore his chakra circulation did not restore his vision.

"This kid's illusion magic is even more astonishing than expected!"

The Third Raikage was surprised again, and then, at the critical moment, his head tilted to the left.

The next moment, Genma's kunai flew past him on the right. The lightning chakra on the kunai collided and rubbed against the lightning chakra on the Third Raikage's body, immediately causing the kunai to bounce to the right.

"You dodged it!"

Yunren couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, her heart almost leaping into her throat.

The next moment, his eyes widened as he saw the charging Wind-Riding Black Horse suddenly switch places with the kunai that was tumbling to the right of the Third Raikage.

"So fast!"

Orochimaru was also surprised.

At this moment, under Genma's dynamic vision, the Third Raikage reacted extremely quickly. After dodging the kunai, he twisted his body and his left hand actually pierced towards him.

This was not a coincidence, nor was it because the Third Raikage had broken the Dark Travel Technique and witnessed Genma's actions before reacting.

Rather, it was the Third Raikage who anticipated his attack.

"As expected of the Third Raikage!"

"In that case, let's test the strength first!"

Genma clenched his right fist, his Lightning Release chakra highly concentrated, a ball of light enveloping his entire fist, and then, like a javelin, he slammed it down on the Third Raikage.

The next moment, their fists and palms collided, accompanied by a loud explosion, and a blazing white light burst out from between them, expanding like an energy ball.

In an instant, all the spectators instinctively closed their eyes or raised their hands to shield their eyes, unable to withstand such intense light.

Rumble!

After the burst of light, the terrifying energy waves formed by the collision of energies rubbed against the air, producing a loud noise and simultaneously stirring up a storm that swept in all directions.

With his long hair flying, Orochimaru covered his face with his hand and squinted as he saw two figures retreating in unison.

The Third Raikage plowed the ground with his feet, carving a scorched furrow more than ten meters long before regaining his footing.

The Wind-Riding Black Horse tumbled several times in the air to dissipate its power, then landed with a thud, shattering the ground beneath its feet.

Orochimaru stared at the two figures, one large and one small, in the center of the battlefield, a look of amazement on his face: "What an amazing collision!"

"What an unexpected and exciting match!"

Orochimaru never expected that Genma would start with genjutsu and even use the Dark Travel Technique to restrict the Third Raikage's vision.

He hadn't even mastered this A-level illusion technique.

Even his teacher, who was known as a ninjutsu professor, couldn't master it.

Because this is a very special illusion, ordinary illusion-breaking methods are completely useless.

Most illusions deceive the brain by affecting the five senses, which disrupts chakra flow. By restoring the chakra flow, the illusion can be easily dispelled.

The Dark Walk Technique is different; it creates darkness to block vision, like a dark barrier, and does not affect the user's chakra circulation.

"Even I, if I were to fall victim to this spell, would probably only be able to fight my enemies in the dark!"

Orochimaru sighed inwardly.

The others were equally shocked by this brief exchange.

"This is amazing! Was Genma's fight with Hanzo just as spectacular and thrilling?"

Yamashiro Aoba swallowed hard, then realized that her back was soaked with sweat.

Fugaku Uchiha, with his three-tomoe jutsu activated, said with a solemn expression: "As expected, it is the Dark Travel Technique. The Raikage has not been able to break this genjutsu."

Hyuga Hizashi secretly marveled, "What an amazing Body Flicker Technique! Even the Byakugan can't accurately capture their movements. It's terrifying!"

On the other side, many Cloud Ninja were equally shocked by the strength of Wind-Riding Xuanma.

"This guy's Lightning Release actually blocked the Raikage's Hell Thrust Four-Handed Technique!"

"No, it wasn't blocked. Lord Raikage is injured. Although it's just a superficial wound, his left hand is indeed bleeding."

"Lord Raikage hasn't broken the genjutsu. It seems his sight has been taken away. Damn it, this is going to be very dangerous!"

Many Cloud Ninja were worried, and some even raised their hands to form hand seals, attempting to break the genjutsu for the Third Raikage, but they failed.

At this moment, the Third Raikage stopped paying attention to his eyes.

If it can't be solved, it can't be solved. As long as the enemy is defeated, the illusion will naturally dissipate.

Facing the grounded Genma, the Third Raikage said, "Your Lightning Release technique was quite good, as it was able to defeat my Four-Pole Piercing Hand. I will now use an even stronger technique."

As he spoke, the Third Raikage bent one finger on his right hand.

Three-handed strike!

Genma's gaze sharpened; he only realized the true value of the Third Raikage after trying it himself.

The Four-Handed Technique clashed with his Sage Art: Lightning Blade. Although his Sage Art: Lightning Blade had the upper hand, he defeated the Four-Handed Technique.

However, after he broke through the Third Raikage's Lightning Release armor, his power was basically gone; he only pierced the skin and flesh of the Third Raikage's palm without damaging the finger bones.

In other words, the power of his Sage Art: Lightning Blade is probably only comparable to the Third Raikage's Three-Piece Technique, far inferior to the stronger Two-Piece Technique, or even One-Piece Technique.

After a brief exchange, Genma had a good grasp of the Third Raikage's attack and defense capabilities.

The Sage Art: Lightning Blade could severely injure the future Fourth Raikage, A, but it's still not enough against the current Third Raikage.

Then... let's try a different approach!

Genma dispersed the Raikiri in his right hand and spoke loudly: "As expected of the Raikage, your strength is indeed astonishing."

"Next, I'll use an even stronger move!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure vanished from the spot, shooting out like a bolt of lightning.
