Boom…
A giant fireball explodes on top of Jigen's head.
Humph…
Jigen shrugs off the fireball as he turns around to look at his attacker.
"Stay away from my Onii-san." Ayaka angrily yells at Jigen.
There is a hint of fear in her eyes, but she resolutely clutches her fists.
"AYAKA! NO! RUN!" Izuna shouts at Ayaka.
"Onii-san, I will save you."
Ayaka makes some hand signs and opens her mouth.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu"She fires another fireball at Jigen.
Whoosh…
Jigen stretches his arm and shrinks the fireball into a small tiny spark.
Hmm…
He absorbs the chakra from the fireball.
"This chakra…"
He turns towards Ayaka as his right eye transforms in his Dojutsu. He inspects Ayaka curiously.
'Her Otsutsuki bloodline is quite thick and her body is strong enough to host my Kama seal. She would be my perfect vessel.'
"I finally found it. The perfect host I was looking for. I have been searching this world for a millennium and I finally found it."
Jigen pulls Ayaka towards himself.
Whoosh…
Ayaka flies towards Jigen as she struggles to get free.
"Not so soon, you bastard."
Izuna breaks free from Jigen's grasp as he riles up his remaining chakra.
"Sin, do it!"
He stretches his left arm as a seal appears on it. The seal is in the form of an eye.
Burble… burble…
An enormous amount of dark purple chakra rises from the seal.
"This chakra…"
Jigen senses an intense threat as the spokes in his right eye rotate rapidly. He tries to absorb the purple chakra.
Argh…
His arm gets scorched by the purple chakra.
"What kind of chakra is this? It is so corrosive."
Jigen cautiously stares at the purple chakra as he is unable to absorb it.
"Electromagnet Release: Flux Rasengan"
Izuna creates a dark purple Rasengan in his left hand. The Rasengan compresses into itself as it forms a small unstable electric and magnetic field around itself.
Bzzt…
The intense magnetic and electric field distorts the surrounding space.
Jigen feels an intense threat from the Rasengan.
'I am afraid If I take it head on, I would suffer some serious damage. I can't stand to lose this body without transferring my Kama seal to that girl.'
He activates his Dojutsu's ability.
"Sukunahikona"
Jigen tries to shrink the jutsu.
Bzzt… Shoom…
The Rasengan shrinks a little, but it resists the jutsu and releases a powerful EMP blast, which makes him dizzy.
"Impossible! This technique has touched the level of a concept. I must avoid it all cost or things won't go well for me."
BAM…
Jigen headbutts Izuna, but Izuna withstands it without even as much as a flinch.
"I won't let you..."
He wraps his arm around Jigen's waist as he completes the jutsu.
"I won't let you harm my family any further. Let's go down together."
BAM…
Izuna slams the Rasengan in Jigen's body.
Zrrr… Brr…
The jutsu releases multiple EMP Blasts as it expands violently. An extensive field of purple lightning appears on the battlefield as it terraforms the area.
BOOM…
AAH…
Jigen yells in agony as the jutsu corrodes his body.
BOOM…
The Rasengan explodes and expands into a purple tornado as it engulfs both of them.
AAH…
Izuna yells in pain as the corrosion spreads to his left arm. I have to hold on to it.
Bang… bang…
The EMP blast knocks Mei and Ayaka away.
-----------------
Edo-Hashirama and Jiraiya watch the battle as their expression turns ugly.
"Quick… we have to help that Uchiha boy. I have regained complete control over my body now."
Both of them rush towards the location of the battle.
Bzzt…
The Rasengan creates a giant crater at its location as purple lightning flickers through it.
Jiraiya tries to approach the crater.
Bzzt...
A bolt of dark purple lightning strikes in front of him and creates a small crater.
"Boy! Stay away from that lightning. It is no ordinary lightning. It is the highest form of lightning. This lightning has touched upon natural laws, and it is a part of the force of nature itself."
Hashirama warns Jiraiya.
"Highest form?… Natural law? Force of Nature?"
Jiraiya has a confused expression on his face as he stares at Hashirama for answers.
"Take care of the girl first while I will tend to that boy. This body of mine is meant for such work."
"Very well… Lord First."
Jiraiya nods his head as he walks towards Mei. He tries to pull the black rods from Mei's body.
Aww… Aww…
"What kind of material is this? It is rapidly draining my chakra."
Hmm…
Jiraiya ponders for a while as an idea clicks his mind.
"This might work."
He clasps his palms and absorbs Nature's energy from the surroundings.
The facial features of Jiraiya change to match that of a frog.
Jiraiya grabs the black rods as Sage Mode helps him resist the chakra drain.
He pulls out all four black rods from Mei's body. Jiraiya reverts to his normal self and checks Mei's pulse.
"She is in serious condition. She needs immediate medical attention."
"Onii-Chan!"
A feeble voice falls in Jiraiya's ears. He turns around and notices Ayaka curled up in a corner.
Jiraiya quickly picks her up.
"So hot… her body temperature is so high. This little girl has such an intense fever."
Crunch… crunch…
Jiraiya hears some footsteps as he raises his head. He notices Hashirama is carrying Izuna in his arms.
The Edo-body of Hashirama is in a battered shape as it regenerates very slowly.
Hashirama places Izuna at a distance from the rest of the group.
Hmm…
Jiraiya turns towards Izuna as his expression turns ugly.
Purple lightning is flickering through the entire body of Izuna.
"Lor… Lord First? What's going on? Is this boy alright? If something happens to him, I won't see the end of it from Tsunade."
Jiraiya inquires.
Hashirama shakes his head.
"I can't say anything about him. He used a forbidden jutsu to fight against the enemy and paid a price for it."
Hashirama points towards the left arm of Izuna.
"He used his left arm as a sacrifice to use this jutsu."
Hashirama shakes his head.
"What is that purple lightning around him?" Jiraiya curiously stares at Izuna as he sends one of his frogs to inform Tsunade.
"That's the highest form of Lightning Release. When the proficiency of an element has reached its highest state; then it becomes a very part of nature itself.
Nature has various fundamental forces acting and shaping the very world we live in. These forces are either materialistic or non-materialistic."
Hashirama explains the details to Jiraiya.
"Take my Wood Release, for example. It is a part of the materialistic force as it helps in the flourishment of life. My proficiency with the wood release reached its highest state, and I came across what I call 'Life Release'.
'Life Release' is a materialistic force of Nature. The very nature accepts my existence and helps in the flourishment of my life. I can tap into the power of Nature with my Life Sage Mode.
It is the part of the reason I outlast my old friend Madara in our final fight. I can channel the immense vitality of nature through my body, but it places a certain amount of burden on my body so I can't use it extensively."
"Life Sage Mode?"
Jiraiya curiously questions him.
"Let me demonstrate."
Hashirama kneels and touches the ground near Mei. Various small plants grow near her as her body shines with a light green glow.
"This is similar to Nature energy but… but it has something else within it."
Jiraiya's eyes widen in surprise.
The green light heals Mei's wounds and closes the holes caused by the black rod.
"This is as far as I can use it in my current form. To use the full extent of my prowess, I need my own body."
Hashirama shakes his head.
He points towards Izuna and continues.
"Similar to me, this boy has also touched upon the essence of the force of Nature. Though in his case it is the non-materialistic force of Nature.
The Non-materialistic forces are quite volatile and destructive compared to materialistic ones. Their power far surpasses the materialistic aspect, but it also makes them extremely hard to control.
He has lost control over his power and is currently struggling to contain it. I advise you to stay away from him or else his power will harm others."
Hashirama advises Jiraiya.
"Yes… Lord First. I will keep that in mind."
------------------------
A/N:- This chapter took me a while to write. The gap between Kekkei Mora and Kekkei Tota is a grey area. So, I used something different to describe it.
Well, at least, I explained the plot value of Hashirama cells. His cells are too OP with that cockroach like sustenance.
