Chapter 143 - 143 (2/2)
”Everyone, point all the water you can produce at me, NOW!” Ryo turned back to Konoha's Ninjas and shouted.
Everyone heard the order, and without hesitation, they all used their Water Release ninjutsus. The amount of water gathered from hundreds of small to medium sized Water Release Jutsus was huge.
Ryo froze the water, controlling most of it to form three massive Ice Shields. The remaining formed an Ice wall to fend off the aftermath of the explosion.
(Translator Note: I imagine these three shields being laid out similarly to Orochimaru's Triple Rashomon.)
Understanding the power of the Biju Dama, Ryo didn't stop there. Even though he had three Ice Shields and an Ice wall, he still felt that it wasn't enough.
Ryo entered Sage Mode, and condensed a Rasenshuriken.
At this time, the Bijudama was also completed. At the same time of its, Ryo released the Rasenshuriken.
The two attacks collided in midair, and the Rasenshuriken did manage to offset a portion of the power of Bijudama, making it much smaller than its initial size.
”Boom!!” The Bijudama hit the 1st shield, easily breaking through it.
The second did manage to fend it off for a good while before ultimately being crushed as well.
The 3rd Shield stood against the attack for what seemed like an eternity, and eventually the Biju Dama didn't go through and exploded.
The Ice Wall behind the Shield took the impact from the explosion, and none of Konoha's Ninjas was harmed.
Ryo Ice Teleported back to where the Yonbi used to be, and continued to stall it.
Unlike the Kyubi, the Yonbi wasn't capable to use consecutive Biju Dama without rest. Without that threat, Ryo was more comfortable dealing with it.
”Complete! Ryo, let's both transfer this beast!” Minato finally completed the Teleportation Barrier.
Ryo nodded, and following Minato instructions, he injected Chakra to a seal he stepped on, and the Jutsu was performed instantly.
Ryo, Minato and the Yonbi all disappeared from the battlefield.
Somewhere near a river far away, they instantly reappeared.
The beast was still a little puzzled by everything that had just happened, when Ryo and Minato started attacking.
This time, Minato was the one fighting the beast, while Ryo was supposed to make use of the water around him to help Minato by offsetting the Lava's effect.
Minato didn't have any worries facing the beast. Using his speed and consecutive Rasengan, he was able to fully occupy the Yonbi.
The beast was in a pinch against such an opponent. Without any way to keep up with his speed, the beast couldn't do anything.
However, as soon as Minato got an edge, Ryo stopped assisting him and formed an Ice Bow.
An Ice arrow appeared on the bow. While pulling it back, Ryo gathered natural energy within the arrow, making it more and more transparent.
Minato was also a Mount Myoboku contractor. While he hadn't completed his Sage Mode training at the time, he was also s_e_n_s_i_t_i_v_e to Narutal Energy.
He sensed that in the arrow that was barely the length of an arm, there was an immense amount of Natural Energy. Once such a thing exploded, it should even be enough to kill the Yonbi.
Knowing what Ryo had in stores, Minato could only cooperate with him.
