Chapter 92 - 92 (1/2)
If Roshi had all his usual Chakra, he would've been able to maintain the Lava Chakra Mode for much longer. Even without the Yonbi's help, Ryo had no chance against him.But now, most of his Chakra was sealed along with the Yonbi by Ryo's Four Symbols Seal, and his Lava Chakra Mode was overwhelmed by the water releases launched at him. He was already at the end of his strength.
Ryo did not hesitate, using the Lightning Chakra mode to move closer to Roshi, and then using the surrounding water vapor to condense Ice that hammered his foe from all directions.
Roshi had no way to avoid the endless stream of Ryo's ice, and his body became more and more bruised.
Ryo's vigilance was not hindered by the feeble appearance of his enemy, and he carried on with his method all the way to victory. Finally, under his unyielding onslaught, Roshi collapsed to the ground.
On the ground, he gasped, looking at Ryo and saying with some emotion: ”I did not expect that I would meet my fate under your hands kid.”
”You are destined to die by my hands. Even if you manage to escape today, I will hunt you down, and I will kill you. Just die right now!”
Roshi heard hatred in Ryo voice, and understood that he had probably killed one of his loved ones at some point in time.
”Kid, could you at least tell me about the name of the one you're avenging?”
”Yamanaka Akihito.”
”It him then?!” Roshi, as the Yonbi Jinchuriki, had faced many of the Rock's enemies, and the people who died by his hands were by the hundreds. The ones whose names he could really remember were only a select few, and Akihito was one of them.
”That man is a great Shinobi. In order to cover the evacuation of Konoha's troops, he stayed behind on his own to block my path. I did not expect to die by the hands of one of his descendants.”
Hearing Roshi's final words, Ryo recalled Akihito voice and smile, and then pierced Roshi's heart with Raikiri.
Killing him with his own hands, his heart was finally relieved from the burden that he had put upon it. Akihito's death had always been a thorn in his heart.
Back he had died, Ryo even though about the most wicked of thoughts: looking for ways to revive him, even with Edo Tensei.
There had been nearly seven years ever since he died, and time had diluted much of the intensity of his sorrow. He's given up on the idea of resurrecting his uncle.
Killing Roshi relieved the pressure inside his heart, and he was able to finally relax. Even his Sharingan became stronger as he was no longer shackled by his vow for revenge.
The strength of the Sharingan varies from user to user, and also is subject to change for the same user. For example, Sasuke's three tomoe Sharingan when he faced his brother was not the same as when it had just opened when facing Naruto in the Valley of the End.
In the Manga, his three tomoe Sharingan was able to break through the Tsukuyomi. Although it might have been because his brother was giving him slack, it was still largely due to the strength of his Sharingan exceeding the more common 3 Tomoe Sharingan.
Now, Ryo's Sharingan has also reached the level of Shippuden Sasuke's. With Ryo's immense spiritual power, breaking through Genjutsu should be even easier than it was for Sasuke.
With the death of its Jinchuriki, Sun Wukong also died. The Yonbi's Chakra left Roshi's body.
Ryo couldn't just let it go, and he used another scroll with the Four Symbols Seal that he had prepared earlier.
With it, he managed to seal about one fifth of Yonbi's Chakra.
After he was through with that, he placed Roshi's corpse in another scroll, and let Gamahiro return to Mount Myoboku.
