Chapter 37 - Chapter 37: Clash of Lightning Release

The battle began, and Minato and the others each faced their respective opponents.

"Lightning Release Chakra Mode!"

Saburo Watanabe's entire body was covered in blue chakra, with lightning occasionally flashing on its surface.

This was a secret technique of the Hidden Cloud Village. Generally, Jonin-level ninjas could learn it, but to use it to its fullest extent required sufficient talent and perseverance.

Currently, the one who had cultivated the Lightning Release Chakra Mode to its strongest in the Hidden Cloud Village was the Third Raikage.

Although the Lightning Release Chakra Mode was powerful, its consumption was also quite large. But in order to quickly deal with Minato, Saburo Watanabe couldn't be bothered with that anymore.

"Wind Release—Tornado Fist!"

Minato took a deep breath, gathered wind-attribute chakra in his hands, and then turned it into an invisible wind fist that rushed towards Saburo Watanabe.

"Don't show off such petty tricks in front of me! Take this!"

In his Lightning Release Chakra Mode, Saburo Watanabe was like a humanoid missile. He didn't care about the Tornado Fist at all. He rushed forward without any fancy moves, just a simple punch, and annihilated the Tornado Fist in mid-air.

But his slightly trembling hands also showed that the truth was not as indifferent as he claimed.

After all, it was a B-rank ninjutsu, and he was only a Jonin. He had not cultivated the Lightning Release Chakra Mode to its peak.

After crushing the Tornado Fist, Saburo Watanabe did not stop and continued to charge towards Minato.

"Die, little brat!"

Saburo Watanabe's speed was extremely fast. He reached Minato in the blink of an eye, a surge in speed caused by stimulating his cells in the Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

Fortunately, Minato was prepared and had already formed the hand signs for the Body Flicker Technique to dodge.

"Not bad, little brat. You're quite skilled with the Body Flicker Technique. But how many times can you dodge?"

Saburo Watanabe was a little surprised that Minato could dodge, but he didn't care and continued to charge.

But when he turned his head, he saw that Minato, who had used the Body Flicker Technique to create distance, had already formed new hand signs.

"Fire Release—Great Fire Annihilation!"

A straight line of fire shot out from Minato's mouth. After shooting out a few meters, the flames began to disperse as if they had a mind of their own and surrounded Saburo Watanabe.

"What a powerful Fire Release! Such a large range! I can't take it head-on this time. Even that Tornado Fist just now was a bit of a stretch." While thinking, Saburo Watanabe changed direction to avoid the direct impact of the Great Fire Annihilation.

Seeing that the Great Fire Annihilation had missed, Minato immediately stopped his output. His hands did not stop, and he quickly formed new hand signs.

"Lightning Release—Angry Raging Tiger!"

A large amount of lightning-attribute chakra began to leak out, forming a blue lightning tiger around Minato. As he continued to use the skill, the speed at which he condensed the lightning tiger became faster and faster.

"Haha, little brat! We Cloud Ninja are the experts in Lightning Release! You're a hundred years too early to compete with me in Lightning Release! Let me teach you how to use Lightning Release!"

Seeing the little brat on the other side using Lightning Release, Saburo Watanabe showed a contemptuous smile.

"Just talking big is useless. I'll teach you a lesson with this one Lightning Release," Minato's momentum was not to be outdone. Even if his strength was a little weaker than his opponent's, his aura was still strong.

He controlled the lightning tiger and rushed towards Saburo Watanabe. The scene instantly turned into a humanoid missile and a blue lightning tiger moving quickly, crashing into each other.

Facing the Lightning Release, Saburo Watanabe did not dodge. It was a matter of pride. If he lost in a contest of Lightning Release, where would the Hidden Cloud Village's face be?

"Lariat!"

At the moment of impending collision, Saburo Watanabe roared, concentrating a large amount of lightning-attribute chakra in his hand, and then collided with the head of the blue lightning tiger.

"Boom!"

A huge explosion resounded throughout the area. A large amount of black smoke was generated, attracting the attention of the other personnel on both sides.

"Minato-kun!" Mikoto Uchiha looked worriedly at the place of the explosion.

"Woman, woman! You dare to be distracted in a battle? Be more careful in your next life! And that little brat is probably dead for sure, daring to fight with Lord Watanabe."

At the moment Mikoto Uchiha was distracted, one of the three Chunin found an opportunity and launched a surprise attack on her.

"Damn it!" Mikoto Uchiha was shocked. She had been careless.

"Dance of the Crescent Moon!"

Just as Mikoto Uchiha was in a panic, Hayate Gekko's voice came from a distance. Then, three figures appeared and launched a one-hit kill on the Chunin who was launching the surprise attack.

"Ah!"

A miserable scream came from the mouth of the Chunin who was launching the surprise attack. Hayate Gekko had hit his vital point; he wouldn't live for long.

It was his own fault for only focusing on the surprise attack and not paying attention to the movements in other places.

Hayate Gekko went to Mikoto Uchiha's side and comforted her, "You have to believe in Minato. He's a super genius of our Konoha. He can even defeat a Special Jonin. Don't forget, he has a trump card he hasn't used yet."

Thinking of the blue chakra sphere from Minato's graduation exam, Mikoto Uchiha was relieved. "Gekko-kun, let's quickly deal with these two and go help Minato-kun."

"Yes, that's what I was thinking. After dealing with one person, the remaining two will be easy," Hayate Gekko's cool face became serious.

Mikoto Uchiha also activated her two-tomoe Sharingan. It seemed she was going to go all out.
