MM Racing Chapter 190 Defeat
Chapter 190 Defeat
Countless Cloud Ninja continued their relentless advance, showing no sign of retreat. Even though the battlefield was littered with corpses and rivers of blood, nothing could deter their charge. Hyuga Kanan stood atop the massive dragon's head, calmly surveying the fearless Cloud Ninja before him. They surged forth relentlessly, like a raging tide. Many Cloud Ninja were mercilessly crushed into gruesome heaps of flesh by the dragon's massive, swirling body before they could even reach it. Simultaneously, countless ninjutsu rained down on Hyuga Kanan like a storm, but the dragon nimbly twisted its body, easily deflecting wave after wave of attacks with its indestructible form. No matter how cunning or fierce the ninjutsu, none could penetrate the dragon's defenses, let alone touch Hyuga Kanan.
However, the dragon, having endured countless attacks from ninjutsu, also gave the charging Cloud Ninja a slight opening. This allowed them to get closer to the dragon's head, piloted by Hyuga Kanan, and have the opportunity to engage in close combat. Hyuga Kanan, however, remained calmly watching the approaching Cloud Ninja launch their attack. To Hyuga Kanan at this moment, these attacks were utterly insignificant, even laughable. Had these Cloud Ninja forgotten that the Hyuga clan's forte was taijutsu (physical combat)? They seemed oblivious to this fact, or perhaps completely unaware that they were making a grave mistake.
The first Cloud Ninja to get close enough to attack Hyuga Kanan revealed an uncontrollable excitement. He knew all too well that many of his comrades had paid the ultimate price for this rare opportunity. At that moment, he gripped his trembling ninja sword tightly, as if it were his last glimmer of hope in his fight against death.
However, facing the oncoming ferocious enemy, Hyuga Kanan appeared unusually calm and composed. He merely glanced casually at the figure, then lightly extended a finger and tapped it in the enemy's direction. In an instant, something astonishing happened—a gaping, bloody hole appeared in the heart of the Cloud Ninja, and his body plummeted straight off the dragon's back like a kite with a broken string.
Witnessing this breathtaking scene, the approaching Cloud Ninja swallowed hard, their throats bobbing. Despite their fear and unease, they didn't stop; instead, they charged towards Hyuga Kanan with even greater determination. For them, even knowing it meant certain death, they would spare no effort to weaken Hyuga Kanan. After all, this precious opportunity had been bought with the blood of countless Cloud Ninja warriors; how could they easily give it up?
On the brink of life and death, these Cloud Ninja held only one belief: no matter what, they had to make Hyuga Kanan feel their determination and courage. Even if they ultimately couldn't defeat their opponent, they wanted to let him know that the Cloud Ninja would never easily submit to a powerful foe!
Seeing the resolute expressions on the faces of the Cloud Ninja continuing their attack, Hyuga Kanan realized that relying on his superior strength to force them back was no longer an option. The Cloud Ninja showed no intention of retreating despite the vast difference in strength and their heavy casualties, demonstrating their determination to fight to the death. Therefore, Hyuga Kanan decided to show no mercy. He knew that only by completely crushing their fighting spirit could he truly inflict pain on the Cloud Ninja Village.
Hyuga Kanan, who had been holding his arms across his chest, suddenly placed them in front of him, as if preparing for some important move. Suddenly, the energy within him seemed to ignite, erupting wildly like a volcanic eruption. At the same time, his aura surged like a rocket, becoming incomparably powerful once more.
With the burst of energy, a powerful shockwave surged and spread out from his body. This shockwave was like a raging torrent, incredibly powerful, instantly blowing the charging Cloud Ninjas backward. Even the surrounding air couldn't withstand the ravages of this force, and was forcibly torn into pieces.
At this moment, Hyuga Kanan's hair danced wildly like waves whipped by the wind. Simultaneously, mysterious blue light shimmered around his body, weaving into peculiar patterns resembling ancient runes, swirling and circulating. His once clear white pupils had turned a deep, eerie blue, radiating a terrifying and chilling aura.
This oppressive aura was like a mountain crushing an egg, causing all the charging Cloud Ninja to involuntarily stop in their tracks. Their eyes widened, staring blankly in the direction of Hyuga Kanan, their hearts filled with fear and awe. Faced with this powerful aura, they felt as insignificant as ants.
Propelled by the shockwave, Hyuga Kanan stood in the void, slowly walking towards the Cloud Ninja forces. Every step he took was so steady, as if the entire world trembled beneath his feet. The once enormous wooden dragon gradually shrank, hovering around him like a loyal guardian.
The Cloud Ninja commander could no longer bear the fear in his heart. He stretched out his trembling hand and fiercely wiped away the cold sweat that kept seeping from his forehead. Just now, the powerful aura that erupted from Hyuga Kanan was like a surging torrent that rushed directly into his body, causing his own chakra to begin to stir uncontrollably and even become slightly chaotic.
At the same time, the surrounding air seemed to freeze, becoming unusually heavy. All the Cloud Ninja soldiers stood frozen in place, as if under a spell, unable to move an inch, and could only watch helplessly as Hyuga Kanan slowly walked out of the void.
As this legendary figure reached the top of the Cloud Ninja forces, he looked down at them, who appeared as insignificant as ants. A slight, serene smile played on his lips. Then, in a calm yet supremely authoritative tone, he spoke: "You so-called Cloud Ninja, are you truly so stubborn? If you insist on this, don't blame me for showing no mercy. I will show you what a true gap in strength really is!" His voice, though not loud, clearly reached the ears of every Cloud Ninja, like a heavy hammer striking their fragile hearts.
The Cloud Ninja commander stared wide-eyed at Hyuga Kanan, who appeared as if a god had descended to earth, his body trembling uncontrollably. However, when he heard Hyuga Kanan's contemptuous words and sensed the other's disdain for the entire Cloud Ninja Village, his fear was instantly replaced by anger, and his reason vanished in that instant.
His eyes widened in fury, and he roared hoarsely, issuing the order to all the Cloud Ninja present to continue the attack without hesitation. The Cloud Ninja, who had been standing there frozen in place, now seemed like mindless puppets. Their eyes were bloodshot, and they roared madly as they launched a new charge against Hyuga Kanan without fear of death.
Hyuga Kanan silently watched the Cloud Ninja army begin to move again, the last trace of his thought to persuade them to retreat vanishing. He took a deep breath, and the Boundless Twin Rings on his wrists began to tremble slightly. Then, a dazzling golden light suddenly erupted, and the Boundless Twin Rings, like arrows released from a bow, rushed towards the Cloud Ninja troops with fierce momentum.
This time, the Boundless Twin Rings primarily operated on the power of the metal element, making them exceptionally sharp and unstoppable. Wherever they passed, Cloud Ninja soldiers were sliced in two, blood splattering everywhere. Even those Cloud Ninja who used defensive ninjutsu could not withstand the terrifying power of the Boundless Twin Rings, and could only watch helplessly as their bodies were easily torn apart.
Within just a few minutes, not a single Cloud Ninja remained standing within a distance of over a kilometer in front of Hyuga Kanan; limbs and severed bodies lay everywhere. Blood stained the land crimson, and a thick, pungent stench filled the air. Hyuga Kanan continued his slow advance through the void towards the Cloud Ninja, instantly piercing through any who stood in his way with golden light, meeting their demise.
The Cloud Ninja commander seemed to be jolted awake by the carnage before him. Looking at the corpses strewn across the ground, his reason returned. He finally realized that his Cloud Ninja force wouldn't pose any real threat, only wasting the enemy's time. In a mere instant, the Cloud Ninja force had lost over a thousand men. Yet, Hyuga Kanan hadn't suffered a single injury, unable even to get close. And the fact that the enemy showed no signs of fatigue, remaining as calm and collected as ever, was what filled him with the deepest despair. Having slaughtered so many elite ninja, the enemy seemed completely unaffected. If this continued, his entire elite Cloud Ninja force would likely perish here. The commander wasn't afraid of sacrifice, but what he feared most was being slaughtered meaninglessly, with no chance of defeating the enemy—that was the most despairing thing.
He knew that retreat was the only option; he couldn't let the Cloud Ninja force die here in vain. This force comprised half of the Cloud Ninja village's ninja population, and they were the village's backbone. If they were wiped out here, other ninja villages would likely seize the opportunity to exploit the chaos, and the Cloud Ninja village would become their target.
Seeing the Cloud Ninja forces begin to crumble, Hyuga Kanan ceased his attack and simply floated in mid-air, silently observing their defeat. The Cloud Ninja commander swiftly issued a retreat order, causing the entire force to show signs of disarray.
