Chương 116: The Azure Flame Freezing Time and Space!

"Your bloodline is indeed quite powerful, but you have overlooked one point."

The gold dust that was left on the ground after losing its chakra can be transformed back into my weapon once more if I infuse it with chakra.

The entire arena is now covered in gold dust. I understand that your physical skills are quite impressive, but now you have nowhere to escape. As Luo Sha spoke, he controlled the gold dust on the ground, tightly binding and sucking Yang Cheng's feet. As more and more gold dust gathered around Yang Cheng, soon Yang Cheng's entire body was completely covered in gold dust.

The gold dust he had previously manipulated was frozen and destroyed by Yang Cheng's Azure Flame because of the chakra mixed in it. Instead of injecting chakra again, he spent more chakra to extract and transform the gold dust on the spot, so as to cover the entire area with gold dust and create terrain that was more advantageous to him.

Even though the gold dust had little effect on Yang Cheng, Luo Sha still chose to attack, aiming to continuously wear down Yang Cheng. Luo Sha didn't know what kind of bloodline Yang Cheng's Azure Flame was, but through their previous encounters, he could tell that this Azure Flame was quite effective against his gold dust technique.

After the previous battles, plus the final, awe-inspiring Azure Flame Dragon, Rasa estimated that at Yang Cheng's age, his chakra consumption should have reached its limit.

That's why he used his ultimate move, "Golden Burial," at the very last moment.

If Yang Cheng were in his full-body state, with his Azure Flame Bloodline, the Sand Gold Burial would not be able to restrain him.

But now, the opponent no longer has enough chakra to break free from his sand gold restraints.

Luo Sha could tell this from the last remaining flames on Yang Cheng's body.

This is what Luo Sha was referring to: the difference in combat experience!

Yang Cheng has both strength and talent, but as for his experience as a ninja, Rasa felt that he had experienced more grueling battles than Yang Cheng had eaten meals.

So what if his bloodline is countered? With his skillful use of tactics and the infinite mana of the Impure World Reincarnation, Rasa can still be assured of victory!

"It is truly regrettable that such a genius as you has been destroyed, but sadly, this is the cruelty of war!"

As Yang Cheng was gradually enveloped by the gold dust, Kakashi and the others disregarded their own condition and rushed towards the location of Rasa.

Not to mention that Yang Cheng just turned the tide and saved many people present, just based on the strength and talent that Yang Cheng displayed, Kakashi and the others would not allow Yang Cheng to meet with misfortune in front of them.

However, Rasa didn't take the combined attack from Kakashi and the others seriously at all.

Reincarnated through the Impure World Reincarnation, he was completely unafraid of death. Even though his body was pierced by Kakashi's Lightning Blade and cut in half by Asuma's Wind Release, he still insisted on completing the final Gold Dust Burial!

With Yang Cheng's strength and talent, if he is allowed to continue to grow, Sunagakure will never have a chance to rise to prominence.

In Rasa's view, sacrificing the life of a genius who could have led Konoha to prosperity was a very worthwhile deal.

"Kakashi-sensei, he is a ninja resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation technique. Ordinary techniques are ineffective against him, who is practically immortal. We need to use sealing techniques."

Rasa, whose body was split in two by Kakashi and the others, originally thought that he had traded a Konoha genius for him, and felt that his death was worthwhile.

However, when a slightly immature voice suddenly appeared behind everyone, not only Rasa, but even Kakashi and the others were dumbfounded.

"How is this possible? You clearly already—" Luo Sha, his face filled with confusion, hadn't even finished speaking when Yang Cheng's fingers, curled into claws, pierced through his head, and dense runes quickly covered his entire body.

"Death Claw - Seal!"

Looking at Rasa, whose entire body was covered in sealing incantations and who had lost all power to resist, Yang Cheng slowly said, "Nothing is impossible. Age is not the same as combat experience."

"If you keep treating me like a greenhorn and think I lack fighting experience, you've already lost."

As the sealing bandages continued to wrap around Rasa's body, he looked at Yosei one last time and murmured, "Truly, the younger generation is formidable..."

Kakashi and the others present were stunned when they saw Rasa completely sealed and covered with talismans.

They realized that even without their intervention, Yang Cheng alone should have been able to resolve the battle.

Because when he used "Golden Burial" at the end, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa was almost completely relaxed and could not have imagined that Yang Cheng would suddenly attack him from behind.

The group fought fiercely against the reanimated Fourth Kazekage. Genin Yang Cheng won the MVP, while the Jonin all became easy winrs.

"Yang Cheng, what exactly happened just now?"

The person who asked Yang Cheng was Kurenai Yuhi. Because Kurenai Yuhi had a good relationship with Anko, she used to worry that Anko wouldn't be able to do a good job as a Jonin instructor, so she would occasionally come over to give Yang Cheng and his Team 6 some pointers.

Therefore, compared to the other Jonin present, Kurenai was more familiar with Yang Cheng and Team 6, and it was she who asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

Hong's question was simple: they were all curious about how Yang Cheng had managed to escape death.

Leaving aside the others, Kakashi, with his Sharingan, could see it very clearly.

During the battle, Yang Cheng did not use the physical clone ninjutsu, and with his legs bound, the substitution jutsu was also impossible to use.

Yang Cheng's taijutsu is very strong, but even if it is strong, it is not strong enough to be seen by Kakashi with his Sharingan.

Kakashi was certain that Yoshinori, who had been trapped in the gold dust burial, was his true form.

Yang Cheng, who was clearly in his original form but was buried by the gold dust, appeared behind Luo Sha without anyone noticing.

Yang Cheng was able to evade Luo Sha's final Sand Gold Burial by using the Crimson World Demon King's strongest technique, "Azure Flame of the Zero Realm."

Paying a certain price to temporarily freeze time and space—this was the first time Yang Cheng had used this power in another world.

Since there is no "power of existence" in the Naruto world, chakra and even life can only be used as energy. Yang Cheng's freezing time was less than a second, but the huge consumption directly drained nearly half of his huge amount of chakra!

In fact, with the amount of chakra he had just used, he could have easily escaped the Sand Burial technique with just the Free Art Azure Flame.

However, without the surprise of freezing spacetime, this battle probably won't end so quickly, and Yang Cheng has long been curious about the ultimate ability "Azure Flame of Zero Boundary".

Now that this is a rare opportunity, it's worth trying it out and checking the consumption, in case we need to fight tooth and nail in the future and can't use it.

"Teacher Hong, this is a profound secret of my bloodline, but I cannot explain its specific abilities in detail."

The reason why a secret technique is called a secret technique is that it is a mystery that is not passed on. If it were really revealed, could it still be called a secret technique?

Yuhi Kurenai and the others understood Yang Cheng's answer and stopped dwelling on it.

"But you really surprised Teacher Kurenai. I didn't expect that Kurenai really wasn't bragging this time. She really did teach a super genius."
