Chapter 226 - 226: The Godtoppling Blow

Even a creature as terrifying as the Ten Tails froze under the pressure of Ashveil's descending strike.

Before the colossal Conqueror's Haki palm even landed, its overwhelming might had already crushed the Ten Tails' will to resist. The beast could only stare in rigid terror as the attack descended.

A thunderous explosion shook heaven and earth.

Ashveil's massive Conqueror's Haki palm slammed down with catastrophic force. The impact tore through the battlefield like a divine judgment.

The once invincible Ten Tails of the Ninja World was smashed straight into the ground.

Its enormous body collapsed instantly, disintegrating into a gruesome puddle of flesh and blood.

Silence consumed the Naruto World.

"This… this… how is this even possible?" Mei Terumi whispered, her beautiful eyes wide with disbelief. "Was that truly the Ten Tails that was just killed in a single blow?"

The Raikage and Killer Bee stood utterly stunned, unable to process what they had just witnessed.

Might Guy's brows were tightly furrowed. He had already understood Ashveil's terror after witnessing him withstand the Eight Gates, yet even he had not expected the Ten Tails to fall so easily.

Naruto and Sasuke held their breath, their minds flashing back to the desperate war where they had poured nearly the entire world's power into opposing that same beast.

They had barely survived back then.

Yet now, the Ten Tails had been erased in an instant.

Uchiha Madara stared blankly as well, his expression empty.

He had once believed that his earlier battle had allowed him to glimpse Ashveil's limits. Now he realized how laughably wrong he had been.

Ashveil's strength existed far beyond comprehension.

Because the space time pendulum did not protect summoned beings, the Ten Tails' destruction had been absolute. Blood and remnants scattered across the battlefield, etching a scene that the Naruto World would never forget.

In contrast, the Pirate World erupted with laughter.

"Hahahaha! See that? This is the power of our world!" Golden Lion Shiki roared, mocking mercilessly. "To hell with your god. No matter who you send, they are nothing before Ashveil!"

Donquixote Doflamingo laughed wildly as well, his voice filled with exhilaration.

"The Ninja World will be overturned. In every world, there is only one god now, and that god is Ashveil. Fufufufufu!"

Boa Hancock stood tall with her usual queenly pride, yet her gaze softened as it fell upon Ashveil alone.

Even Kaido and Big Mom burst into booming laughter, as though the one on the battlefield was not Ashveil, but themselves.

Kong clenched his fists tightly. Only now did he truly understand how Ashveil had defeated Imu.

After the Ten Tails fell, the Naruto World quickly redirected its fear toward the arena.

Their eyes locked onto the Sage of Six Paths.

If he had been caught in that strike, then everything would be over.

Members of the Hyuga Clan immediately activated their Byakugan, searching frantically for signs of him.

A sharp cracking sound rang out.

A burst of white smoke appeared.

At the final moment, the Sage of Six Paths had used Body Replacement Ninjutsu to escape death.

He reappeared on the battlefield, breathing heavily, his former calm completely erased. Rage and humiliation burned in his eyes.

He was the god of the Naruto World, worshipped for generations.

Yet now, he had been driven into retreat.

Suppressing the lingering Conqueror's Haki around his body with Yin and Yang power, the Sage of Six Paths raised his head slowly, his gaze deadly serious.

The next instant, Yin and Yang merged with his Sage Chakra.

A deafening roar shook the sky.

A massive Perfect Susanoo manifested, larger and more majestic than those of Madara, Sasuke, or Itachi. Two enormous wings unfolded from its back, radiating overwhelming might.

In a single breath, it soared into the heavens.

The sword in the Sage's hand overflowed with violent Sage Chakra.

"Sage Art, Susanoo Infinite Slash!"

A terrifying sword intent flooded the world.

Lightning tore through the sky. The earth cracked and scorched as the aftershock alone ripped open the battlefield, cleaving the arena ground straight through.

The world-destroying slash surged toward Ashveil's Conqueror's Haki defense.

Hope ignited in the Shinobi World.

"Yes! End him now!"

Meanwhile, the Pirate World fell briefly into stunned silence.

Ashveil merely smiled faintly.

"This is enough," he said calmly.

With a thought alone, a colossal giant manifested from pure will. In its hand, a massive spear of condensed Conqueror's Haki took form.

The giant thrust forward.

The collision shook the cosmos.

The Sage's slash was instantly shattered.

The giant did not slow.

Cold sweat drenched Kakashi's forehead.

"Just by imagination… he can create something like that?"

Gaara stared in shock.

"He has not moved even once. That giant is being controlled entirely by his will."

Shikamaru's mind raced, yet for the first time in his life, no answer came.

Ashveil possessed absolute defense.

He possessed limitless offense.

There were no visible flaws.

High above, the Sage of Six Paths felt fear creeping into his heart.

"Chibaku Tensei!"

He sheathed his blade and pointed downward.

A massive black core formed in the sky, pulling everything toward it with terrifying gravity. Mountains, rivers, and entire swaths of land tore free as they were drawn upward.

The space time pendulum resonated.

"Detecting overwhelming energy. The battlefield will be expanded one thousand times."

The arena transformed into a planetary scale battleground.

Madara's lips trembled.

"He is forming a moon."

The Shinobi World trembled in stunned silence.

Naruto clenched his fists with renewed hope.

"This time… this time he will win!"

Ashveil looked up at the enormous celestial mass forming above him. The sheer gravitational force caused even the planet-sized arena to quake violently.

A sharp smile formed on his lips.

"It is impressive."

Then his eyes narrowed.

"But this ends now."
