Chapter 241: Chapter 241: One Man Challenges an Entire Village
Hoo~ Ssss...
The moment the shuriken broke through the air, a sharp whistling sound mixed with the roar of an airburst echoed loudly.
Two shuriken rapidly flew through the air, heading straight toward Gaara.
Although the two shuriken moved with remarkable speed and seemed to stir up fierce winds, their velocity was not enough to make them unavoidable for Gaara.
Leaning backward, one shuriken grazed past his chest, and with a quick turn and flip, Gaara dodged the second one just as easily.
Although the two shuriken were successfully avoided, the moment Gaara landed, a loud slicing sound came from behind him.
Zzzzzzz...
Wrapped in Wind Release chakra, the shuriken collided with the wall in Maki's view.
However, before the shuriken, the wall was as fragile as tofu, effortlessly sliced apart.
Whoosh!
In an instant, a rumbling sound erupted as, under the slicing power of Wind Release chakra, an entire wall was horizontally severed into two halves.
Shortly after, the second shuriken struck, cutting vertically through the wall.
The wall was split into quarters without the slightest pause in the process.
The shuriken that had sliced through the wall continued flying outward, and in the next moment Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions suddenly erupted.
Both Maki and Gaara turned their heads simultaneously.
They looked behind them!
Crash!
The wall collapsed, accompanied by a cloud of dust and smoke. Maki's pupils narrowed slightly.
"This..."
As the smoke cleared, the scene that unfolded in front of them left both their minds momentarily blank.
Looking outside, five or six houses seemed to have been savagely sliced apart by wild, erratic blades.
A stretch of about twenty meters of housing had been completely shredded into chaos by just two shuriken.
The houses were slowly crumbling.
Boom! Boom...
With the loud rumbling sounds, the entire village, both ninjas and civilians, was alarmed.
At this moment, Gaara's heart was deeply shaken!
'Just two... shuriken, and they unleashed... such power in his hands?'
Maki was equally baffled. Why?
As a fellow Wind Release user, he knew exactly how much strength it would take to casually unleash such destructive Wind Release techniques.
Setting aside the required chakra volume, without an ample reserve of chakra, such jutsu couldn't be executed. Additionally, achieving this level of power would require an advanced mastery of Wind Release's nature transformation.
Sasuke should be adept at Lightning Release, shouldn't he? Then why was his Wind Release... so terrifying!
"What are you looking at!"
"It's just one jutsu. Is it worth being so surprised?"
Sasuke's voice, cold and ominous like that of the Grim Reaper, echoed from behind Gaara.
In that instant, sand automatically surged toward Gaara's back to block Sasuke's attack.
Only then did Gaara react, quickly controlling all the sand around him to gather at his back.
However, Sasuke was already poised to throw a punch.
With a forceful swing, his punch landed with crushing power. At this moment, Sasuke's sheer physical strength alone reached over 2,000 kilograms, amplified by his speed.
Combined with the heightened chakra within his body and the special abilities of the Senju clan, chakra burst
Monster Strength!
Punch!
In an instant, the air split apart as his punch smashed into Gaara's sand shield. At that moment, Gaara could clearly feel his sand disintegrate violently.
Against Sasuke's fist, his sand stood no chance of holding up.
"Careful..."
Suddenly, Maki's voice echoed as he swiftly appeared in front of Gaara, spreading his arms to shield him.
Crash!
One punch landed squarely on Maki.
Crack!
Breaking bones, a collapsed chest Maki spewed a large amount of blood from his mouth!
Whoosh!
The two were sent flying like cannonballs, crashing violently through one house after another without slowing down, punching through structure after structure.
A trail of dust rose as they hurtled straight toward the center of the Sand Village.
This trajectory spanned roughly a hundred meters.
Sasuke slowly walked to the edge of the destroyed wall.
Looking at the Sand Village before him, his gaze followed the trail of smoke toward where Gaara and Maki had landed.
'This is my full-force punch its power is satisfactory...'
A slight smirk formed at the corner of Sasuke's lips. With such strength, he felt there was little to worry about.
At this point, ninjas worthy of challenging him in the entire ninja world could likely be counted on one hand.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
As Sasuke thought to himself, shadows emerged from all directions of the Sand Village.
At the same time, the endless yellow sand seemed to finally calm down.
Sunlight broke through the clouds, shining down upon the Sand Village.
The first person bathed in this light was Sasuke.
Amid the radiant glow, Sasuke stood at the edge, his expression exceptionally calm as he observed everyone around him.
'Challenging an entire ninja village alone it seems like this could be quite entertaining!'
Smiling, Sasuke raised his head once again.
His gaze sharpened. 'Bring it on! Sand Village, let's see if you can stop me now!'
"Those eyes... are they Sharingan?"
"That face he seems to be Konoha's S-class rogue ninja, Sasuke Uchiha!"
"Damn it! When did he infiltrate the village?"
"Is his target Gaara? Was that Gaara who was sent flying earlier?"
"Bastard... to dare destroy the Sand Village like this."
"What is a rogue ninja from Konoha doing here in the Sand Village? Is he seeking death?"
As the surrounding Sand ninjas grew increasingly agitated, Sasuke had no intention of explaining himself further.
With one hand... he formed a seal!
Since it was the Sand Village, he might as well greet them with a Wind Release jutsu!
Chakra surged explosively within Sasuke's body.
In an instant, the chakra's force disturbed the air around him, creating a shockwave that spread outward.
The gale stirred up yellow sand and blew it toward the Sand ninjas.
Although the spreading force wasn't too strong, it caused the Sand ninjas to squint their eyes. Yet, it was in that fleeting moment
Sasuke took a deep breath!
With a dual-layered nature transformation of Wind Release and the immense power contained within Sasuke's chakra
The resulting jutsu had completely transcended its original form...
'Wind Release!'
'Great Breakthrough!'
