Chapter 682: You’ve Shown Your HP Bar!
The thick clouds in the sky had gradually gathered, unnoticed by Jigen. Like someone indoors unconcerned about whether it’s sunny or rainy outside, under normal circumstances, Jigen could shatter the entire cloud cover with a single strike.
But now, things were different. A brilliant, blinding arc of electricity surged and collapsed among the clouds, suddenly condensing into a massive white lightning Kirin.
Guided by Sasuke’s chakra, the colossal white lightning Kirin shot downward. Wherever it passed, the air ionized and shattered, the roar of the thunderstorm exploding. A solid blue-white pillar of light engulfed everything, like divine punishment descending from the heavens.
Kirin struck Jigen directly. The lightning-fast attack left him no time to dodge or activate his eye jutsu!
Formed from nature’s power, Sasuke’s fire jutsu only accelerated the gathering of electrical energy in the clouds, with his final chakra guidance serving merely as a targeting mechanism. In short, the massive Kirin lightning pillar wasn’t chakra-based, so Jigen’s Kama couldn’t absorb it.
"~~~!"
Jigen’s pained scream echoed from the blinding light pillar, drowned out by the roaring thunderstorm.
The sight left Kawaki stunned, as if in a dream. Compared to Jigen, Sasuke, the Hokage’s friend, seemed more like a god.
The terrifying lightning lasted several seconds, nearly draining most of the high-altitude clouds’ energy in one strike, showing Sasuke had poured all his strength into it, fully intent on killing Jigen!
As the lightning faded, the struck area still emitted white smoke and large swirls of flickering ionized air.
As for Jigen himself, he had turned into a charred corpse!
All his defenses were meaningless against the speed and power of natural lightning. In his rushed state, he could only rely on his body to endure, but how could a near-death Jigen withstand it? Almost instantly, he was fully carbonized, reduced to a burnt corpse.
