Chapter 140 - 140 (1/2)

Ryo's battle against Kitsuchi was no small deal, and others naturally noticed it.

The Sand had been facing Kitsuchi for quite some time. Chiyo and Ebiso had a clear idea of his level. Besides Rasa, the two knew that the Sand didn't have anyone who is opponent to him.

What they didn't expect was that not so long after Ryo started fighting him, the Tsuchikage's son was the one seemingly losing.

Ebiso pushed Sakumo back and said to Chiyo: ”Ne-san, is this the new Yamanaka Genius that you often mention?”

”I haven't seen that brat for a few years, and his strength is already this terrifying!” Chiyo said with a heavy face.

”Indeed, Konoha is a cradle of Geniuses. First there were the Sannin, then Minato Namikaze. Now, there's this Ryo Yamanaka. I'm afraid we're not going to have it easy this day!” Ebiso sighed.

”Alright alright! Instead of complaining, let's both go all out and kill Sakumo. I don't believe that he can really beat our Brother-Sister joint attack.” Saying that, Chiyo manipulated her Puppets and rushed towards Sakumo.

Seeing his sister going forward, Ebizo put his frustration aside and attacked along with her.

Back at Ryo's battle, Kitsuchi's left hand was frostbitten, and he didn't have any sensation in it. Ryo thought he had his victory, but did not expect his opponent to have a hidden card.

As soon as Ryo Lightning Chakra Flickered to his foe, a massive stone giant broke out of the ground, with Kitsuchi on top of its head.

”Oh, damn! This exists!” The sudden appearance of the stone giant shocked Ryo. He wanted to use the Lightning Chakra Flicker to escape, but found that the ground underneath him had been turned into mud by Kitsuchi.

”You've been too arrogant, Ryo Yamanaka! Your time has come!” As he said that, Kitsuchi controlled the giant's massive fist to hit the ground.

BANG! The fist was huge, and it directly pierced throw the mud, shattering the ground underneath it.

Kitsuchi sensed the surroundings and found no trace of Ryo's Chakra. He laughed ecstatically.

In the distance, behind a stone, Ryo left his Lighting Chakra Mode gasping. The Giant, despite its massive size, was too fast. He was almost late to teleport to one of the Ice Scalpels he had buried in advance.

Ryo took his time. observing the giant, he found it was somewhat similar to Onoki's Golem.

Opening his Sharingan, Ryo saw the giant structure in details. He concluded that this giant must be an improved version of Onoki's Golem.

In comparison, the giant was even bigger, and much more flexible. It also sacrificed some of the Golem's defensive capabilities, in exchange for a more powerful attack.

After analyzing his enemy's technique, Ryo smiled, and his Lightning Chakra Mode broke out as he flickered back to the battlefield.

Kitsuchi's face became heavy after seeing Ryo. He wasn't able to sense Ryo's Chakra before, so how come he reemerged in front of him one again?

Ryo, not waiting for his foe to understand, threw an Ice Scalpel at the Stone Giant: ”Kitsuchi, it's my turn!”

Ryo's voice just fell, when he disappeared in front of Kitsuchi. The latter was surprised that his perception ability could not keep up with Ryo's speed.

Ryo actually used his ice teleportation, and he reappeared at the Ice Scalpel that was planted on the Giant's right leg. Immediately he hit that leg with a Rasengan!

Kitsuchi increased Chakra flow to the giant's leg to stabilize and repair it. But Ryo wasn't about to wait for that, hitting the left leg with another Rasengan.
