"B-sama, are you alright?" C hurriedly supports B. He uses the mystic palm technique to heal B's wound.
"I am fine Yo, thanks to that brother of mine Yo!" B slowly sits up and eats a chakra pill to restore his chakra.
"How is that guy?" B turns in the direction of A and Kisame.
"No one has lived through that Liger Bomb. He is done for!" Darui remarks.
"No! That guy is different."
Heh…
Kisame opens his eyes and smirks.
Stab…
Samehada pierces through Raikage's lightning armor and absorbs his chakra.
"Get away from me!" A forcefully grabs the hilt of the Samehada to push it away.Swish…
Multiple spikes protrude from the hilt of Samehada and pierce through Raikage's palm. A slightly grimaces in pain but he firmly clutches the handle and smashes the sword into the ground with his full strength.
He picks it up and tosses it away in the distance.
"It has been a while since I got injured to such an extent!" A wipes the blood from his chest and hands.
"Raikage-sama!" C hurriedly flicker beside A.
He uses the Mystic Palm technique to heal A's wounds.
"That guy lived through Raikage sama's liger bomb." Darui narrows his eyes.
"No! It's that creepy sword of his. It absorbed Nii-san's chakra before the impact and cushioned his head with its rear. Thanks to the reduced chakra output, that guy survived without any injury. Still, he is quite resilient to attacks." B gets serious and explains the situation to Darui.
"I have a lot to learn!" Darui scratches his head.
"So, that's one of the infamous, legendary mist swords, Samehada or Shark Skin. It's the most terrifying sword of all seven blades since it is sentient and possesses a will of its own." C glances at Samehada as the latter crawls its way back to Kisame.
Kisame clutches the handle of the sword and places it on his shoulder.
"You! You are Kisame Hoshigaki from Akatsuki." C recognizes Kisame's identity.
"Akatsuki! They are after B again!" A clench his fist in rage.
"How dare you?"
Whoosh…
A cloaks his body in the lightning cloak and attacks Kisame.
Bang…
Kisame blocks A' punch with Samehada and absorbs A's chakra. A continues to output more chakra and pushes Kisame back with brute force.
BOOM…
A fist print appears on Samehada's and it yelps in pain.
Bleurgh…
Kisame also spits out a mouthful of blood from the impact.
"Looks like my defenses aren't enough to withstand your attacks. In that case…"
Samehada squirms around his body and slowly fuses with him.
"What's going on? His features are turning grotesque and his chakra levels are rising sharply. His chakra reserves have already surpassed a human and are on par with a tailed beast." C stares at Kisame in horror.
"That's the chakra he stole from me and B." A cracks his neck and falls back.
Kisame completes his transformation and turns into a humanoid shark-like being.
Kisame quickly makes some hand signs.
"Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave,"
Kisame spews out a massive amount of water, covering the entire area with a ferocious tsunami.
"Nii-san, be careful! He is preparing to trap us in his water prison."
"I won't let you!" A also quickly make some hand signs.
"Lightning Release: Lightning Dragon Bullet,"
A spews out a gigantic dragon-shaped lightning bolt from his mouth. The lightning travels through the highly conductive water and smashes into Kisame's body.
Kisame shrugs off the lightning by stabbing his tail into the ground and transferring the lightning chakra to the ground.
"Interesting! It will be an interesting battle. Kuku…" Kisame chuckles and flickers toward A while swinging his fin blade.
Haah…
A also covers his body with lightning and clashes with Kisame.
BANG…
He blocks the fin blade with his vambraces. Kisame absorbs A's chakra from their clash. A falter slightly in their clash, but he regains his balance and punches Kisame's chest, sending the latter flying.
Kisame slowly stands up. The muscles on his stomach squirm and heal the wound inflicted by Raikage.
"Raikage-sama, things aren't looking good for you. You are getting weaker the longer the battle continues. That sword is continuously absorbing your chakra, and it has drained almost half of your chakra." C warns him.
"Heh! If that's the case, then I am left with no choice."
Clang… clang…
A remove the lock on his vambraces.
Bang… Bang…
The vambraces fall on the ground and create heavy indentations in it. A flexes his hands and swings his arms in a chopping motion. There is a black tattoo of a kanji for 'Lightning' on both of his arms.
A cross his arms together.
Crackle… Crackle…
A surge of black lightning surges through his body and creates a storm of black lightning around him.
HAAH…
A screams and releases multiple bolts of black lightning around him. The unrestrained black lightning bolt breaks the surrounding rocks and grinds them into dust.
A shrouds his entire body in a black lightning cloak. His eyes turn red from the overflowing lightning chakra and he loses control of himself.
Whoosh… Bang…
A disappear from his place and reappear in front of Kisame in an instant.
"He is fast! Much faster than before!" Kisame is shocked to see the sudden increases in A's speed. A lands a heavy punch on Kisame's chest.
Kisame blocks the punch by crossing his abdomen, but the powerful punch burst open his hands and punches a hole in his gut.
Bleugh…
Kisame is sent flying by the punch. He crashes through multiple trees before eventually slamming into a boulder. He pukes out a mouthful of blood.
"His power, speed, and endurance are on another level compared to before. And Samehada refuses to absorb that sinister black lightning." Kisame wipes the blood from his mouth. The wounds on his body heal rapidly as he draws chakra from Samehada.
"Lightning Release: Double black lightning panther,"
A makes multiple hand signs and charges the black lightning in his hands. He aims the charged black lightning toward Kisame and releases it in a single burst.
Roar…
The black lightning turns into two giant black lightning panthers and pounces toward Kisame.
Kisame also makes multiple hand signs and infuses a large amount of chakra in his hands.
"Water Release: Great Shark Bullet technique,"
Kisame creates a gigantic shark of water and thrust his hands forward to send the shark toward A.
The shark opens its giant mouth and clashes with the two black lightning panthers.
BOOM…
A violent explosion occurs at the point of impact. A surge of water drowns A and pushes him away, dispelling his black lightning mode. Another surge of water and lightning engulfs Kisame and splits his fusion with Samehada. Smoke and mist cover the entire area.
A giant orange raccoon and a Kumo shinobi arrive at their position.
"Master Sabu!" B recognizes the latter as his previous battle partner.
"You didn't escape?" B asks him.
"I did! But then I heard the commotion and saw Raikage sama's black lightning. So, I changed my mind and switched directions. Did that guy force Raikage-sama to use it?" Sabu asks him.
"Yes!" B nods his head.
"I didn't expect Raikage-sama to resort to this jutsu. Black Lightning is an enhanced version of normal lightning, but it also puts a great burden on the user. Fourth Raikage sama was never able to fully master the technique, so Lord Third has to seal the technique in his arms. Later, he passed a weakened version of this technique to a kid."
"That would be me!" Darui points towards himself and reveals the black lightning tattoo on his left shoulder.
Sabu swings his gigantic axe and clears the surrounding mist to reveal Kisame holding Samehada while limping slightly.
"It's time to settle this!"
B enters in Version 1 tailed-beast form and confronts Kisame. A also flickers beside Kisame.
"B! Let's do it like the good old days."
A charges up some lightning chakra in his body.
Whoosh…
Both of them flicker toward Kisame from the opposite direction.
"Water Style: Super Shark Bo…" Kisame claps his palm to perform his technique.
"Double Lariat!" A and B slam their left and right shoulder in Kisame and blow off his head before he could complete his hand signs.
"You guys are too fast…"
Kisame's head rolls off the ground as his body falls down.
"We did it, BRRROTHERRR!"
B turns towards A with open arms to hug him.
BAM…
A clutches B's forehead with his grip and squeeze his head.
"Nuuoooo!" B shrieks in pain.
"Have a taste of iron maiden grip! This is for wandering around by yourself!"
"Even ya non-dominant arm does me a lot o' harm! Sound da alarm!"
"What should we do with his body and the sword?" C and Darui stare at Samehada and Kisame's body.
"Hand over his body to the research department and as for the sword; I will make Mizukage spit out a hefty sum to fetch it back."
C collects Kisame's corpse into a scroll and seals Samehada with a Fuinjutsu seal.
