Chapter 541: Super Planetary Core Mega Rasengan
A few seconds earlier,
"Karin, Izumi, how far are you both from the battlefield?" Minato inquires through the Mind transmission technique.
"Dad!"
"Lord Fourth!"
Izumi and Karin are surprised by Minato's sudden voice.
"Dad, we have evacuated the surrounding area. My battle with this white-mask guy led us quite far from the main battlefield. There is no one around us."
Karin answer as she dodges another strike from the giant Buddha statue.
"Very well. Both of you should also evacuate that area and leave as far as possible. If you are unable to leave, then use your most powerful defensive techniques." Minato warns them and cuts off the connection.
"Well…"
Karin and Izumi stare at each other and nod.
"We can't leave this place. If we leave, then he will return to the main battlefield. So, we have only one choice…"
Shoom…
Izumi riles up her chakra and creates a Complete Body Susanoo around her and Karin.
HAAH…
She wields the gigantic blades of her Susanoo and performs a criss-cross slash to cut off a few of the giant Buddha statue's hands.
Karin also unleashed her 'Adamantine Sealing Chains' and wrap them around the Susanoo like a chain mail.
------------------
Back on the desert battlefield,
"It's gone!"
The shinobi from various nations celebrate in joy and hug each other as the looming threat of death caused by the gigantic meteorite disappears from above their head.
"Hail Lord Minato!" All the shinobi irrespective of nation, praise Minato's name and cheer for them.
However, a few captains and vice-captain ponders over the whereabouts of the giant meteorite. The flying Thunder God jutsu is a teleportation technique, so it must have sent the giant rock somewhere else.
A, Onoki, Rasa, Gaara, Sakumo, and Kakashi curiously glance at Minato.
"Lord Minato, did you teleport the giant meteorite in the middle of the sea?" Gaara asks him.
"No, I sent it somewhere even better." Minato smiles at them.
RUMBLE… RUMBLE…
Suddenly, the ground trembles violently. An earthquake hits the area and almost all shinobis stumble on their feet.
"What was that?" A few shinobi wonder in surprise.
"Oh!"
A smile appears on Madara's face.
"Your feat of effortlessly dispatching my technique is praiseworthy! However…"
Shoom…
Suddenly, another gigantic meteorite appears above the group.
"There are two of them!"
The previous joyous occasion turns somber. Even Minato's expression turns slightly ugly.
"Preparing the necessary hand seals and infusing a sufficient amount of chakra to teleport something as huge as a meteorite requires time and the new meteorite is too close to do any of those things. Even if he has time, he won't be able to use the flying Thunder God jutsu for a few seconds.
What he previously used was a powerful version of the Flying Thunder God jutsu. Not only is its chakra consumption high, but moving such a gigantic object also destabilizes the surrounding space due to its massive size. So, he can't effectively use the Flying Thunder God Jutsu for at least another minute.
"I can't teleport it!" Minato shakes his head.
"Then, we can only use every means in our possession to destroy it!" Onoki has already prepared a massive particle-style cube. He fires a giant mass extinction beam toward the incoming meteorite. Other shinobis also use several of their technique to whittle down the gigantic meteorite.
HAAH…
Minato claps his hands.
-------------------
Burble… burble…
Back at the HQ,
All shinobis heave a sigh of relief as Minato's swift action prevents a calamity. However, the sudden appearance of another meteorite dims down their joy.
"Can Lord Minato teleport the second meteorite?" A Kumogakure shinobi enquires.
"Unfortunately, not!" Shikaku shakes his head.
"No matter how powerful the Flying Thunder God Technique is, it still has its limitations."
"Then…" The Kumo shinobi clenches his fists.
Burble… Burble…
Suddenly, ripples appear in the giant sensing sphere. A bubble pops out of the water sphere and floats around a similar bubble.
"That's…"
The eyes of Inoichi, Ao, and the other sensor widen in shock.
-----------------------
"This chakra!"
A few sensors on the battlefield glance in Minato's direction with shock.
"This transformation!"
Even Onoki, A, Rasa, and Gaara are surprised by Minato's transformation.
A golden chakra cloak shrouds Minato's body. Six magatama marks appear around Minato's chest. The Uzumaki swirl mark crest appears on his back and several other circular and prominent circular and swirl marks appear around his stomach, shoulder, and other parts of his legs. These symbols are connected through various lines.
Minato's eye turn orange and his pupils turn elongated.
HAAH…
Minato also taps the diamond shape Senjutsu seal on his wrist to activate the Sage Mode. His Sage Mode differs from other shinobis with the Senjutsu seals. Compared to others, Minato has mastered the Sage Jutsu. Previously, he was withheld by his meager chakra reserves.
However, the prolonged exposure to Nine-tails chakra has significantly raised his chakra reserves by a hundred-fold and had brought him to the same level of chakra as the prodigy of the Uzumaki clan. Even Kushina commented that Minato's current chakra reserves are higher than hers when she didn't have access to nine-tail chakra.
So, as a result, Minato is actively able to absorb the nature energy and prolong his Sage mode. Minato's pupil turns into a plus sign and a slight orange pigmentation appears around his eyes.
HAAH…
Four chakra arms appear behind Minato's back. Each of these giant arms infuses a large amount of chakra and creates an elemental version of the Rasengan.
Swirl…
<Wind style: Rasenshuriken>
A swirling wind shuriken forms into one of the chakra arms.
<Water Style: Vortex Rasengan>
A large amount of highly dense compressed water swirls into a sphere. Despite the high density of the water, it is still in the liquid state due to the chakra.
<Lightning Style: Overload Rasengan>
A sphere of yellow lightning with a highly compressed ion core and an outer sphere of lightning chakra gathers in his other hand. The lightning sphere periodically discharges powerful bolts of lightning. However, the chakra arms stabilize the jutsu.
<Fire Release: Plasma Rasengan>
The fire release Rasengan is in the shape of a mini-sun and the intense heat from the jutsu raises the temperature of the surroundings by several degrees. It lacks the explosive power of the lava Rasengan, however, its sheer temperature is higher than the lava Rasengan.
"Earth Release: Gravity Rasengan,"
Large amounts of sand and gravel appear around the Rasengan as Minato infuses his chakra into the Rasengan. The Rasengan turns brown and emits a powerful gravitational pull. The dust and gravel condense into a super dense and heavy sphere. The size of Rasengan expands to that of a normal giant ball Rasengan.
Even Minato is facing difficulties lifting the Rasengan in his sage mode as the mass of the Rasengan reaches several tons.
SHOOM… SHOOM… SHOOM…
The powerful pull of the gravity Rasengan drags the other Rasengan towards itself and arranges them into an orbit. The other Rasengan orbits around the Gravity Rasengan.
Minato withholds the jutsu with all his chakra arms. He props it above his head with the chakra arms.
"Super Planetary Core Mega Rasengan,"
HAAH…
Minato throws the Rasengan toward the giant meteorite.
Kakashi shakes his head at Minato's whack naming sense.
'That's sensei for you!'
Even the name Rasengan was formulated by Kushina. Kakashi creates a purple lightning spear in his hand and throws it toward the meteorite.
Onoki also continues to make several small particle-style cubes and bombard them towards the meteorite.
"What incredible energy?" Madara stares at Minato's technique with surprise.
'This guy is really full of surprises. First that, massive teleportation formula, and now this powerful technique. Not even my Full Body Susanoo can withstand the hit of something so powerful.'
The giant planetary Rasengan shines like a beacon of hope in every shinobi's eyes. It slowly flies toward the sky and makes contact with the giant meteorite.
The impact of the attack silences every sound of the surroundings.
BOOM…
