10 The battle that shakes the world 2

Rumbling sounds filled the land as the two hulking giants were battling it out, one was a colossal golem made out of special wood, the other a hulking dragon on fire.

they traded blow for blow, every time it seemed one was about to come on top the other would use a burst of power to stop the other's advance, it seemed both were still saving power and slowly revealing it through the fight.

Many shinobi across the elemental nations were paying attention to this battle, various expressions could be seen on their faces, some were filled with despair of their weakness, some were awed by their predecessors might, some were worried about the aftermath of the fight, one thing was for sure no one was willing to look away from the scene in front of them.

The nine-tailed fox was sealed by the reaper death seal amidst all the chaos, no one noticed that before the reaper could harvest the soul of 5th Hokage and his wife a man appeared and using a strange power snatched their souls from the reaper and fled the scene, to say that the reaper was enraged would be an understatement, however he was cautious about the divine power he felt from the eye of the thief so he simply left.

Aki was quite pleased with himself, not only did he manage to stop the tragic fate of the 5th Hokage and his wife he also enjoyed himself amidst the process, of course, that left him with his current problem.

fighting hashirama was different than he imagined it to be, to him it felt like wrestling with a tall fat man, incredibly frustrating, not fun at all.

every move he used was blocked by Hashirama's Defensive tactics, all of Hashirama offensive attacks were easily negated with his speed, thus it left Hashirama very frustrated too.

the most frustrated of them all was tobirama who didn't have the power to interfere in their battle and thus was standing there looking for nonexistent opportunities to strike.

Aki kept checking his chakra reserves worried it might run out on him, fortunately, Madara gave him Hashirama cells enhancing his regeneration rate saving him a lot of trouble.

Aki knew the battle will draw more attention the more they fought and he didn't want that to happen and he was tired of this fight, 'Why is Madara obsessed with this guy, fighting him is not exhilarating at all, do they have some unknown relationship or something ?!'.

the more he thought along those lines the more he shuddered atop his Susano construct, eventually, he stopped thinking along those lines, the battle was mundane, they just traded blows with their Chakra Constructs, none of them dared to use powerfull jutsu because they were close to human settlements and could potentially kill many innocent people.

they didn't even talk because Aki was in thought about strange things while Hashirama was Astonished about his opponent's strength, He always thought that Madara was his only rival in power, it was quite a shock to see his little brother be so strong.

of course, he knew Aki was strong, but he always thought it was around high kage level similar to his younger brother.

inside the dragon's forehead, all Aki felt about the fight were some vibrations here and there and mental strain of using so many complex techniques, no rush of blood or feeling of danger and excitement of the unknown.

so he decided from now on he would fight in the open as much as possible, you see using flashy and power jutsu like Sussano looked great from outside but inside it felt very boring, it seemed like playing a strategy game, instead of feeling the power of blows you could only see it, the battle was between minds more than bodies.

The Dragons rose to the Sky, it opened its mouth and a ball of fire appeared inside of it, it grew bigger and brighter until it eventually eclipsed the dragon and shine even brighter.

Aki Shouted "Hashirama take this gift of mine, maybe you can shove it up somewhere." being so frustrated Aki started to taunt Hashirama to relieve his tension and boredom.

at first, Hashirama felt confused about the whole thing but then his face grew red and he got angry but before he could respond Aki continued "Oh, right I forgot, you might not understand what I meant, I will say it again, Shove it up your ASS haha".

He didn't give Hashirama the chance to respond again by unleashing his attack, the world began shaking in the impact to come, Hashirama knew he didn't have any choice but to block it, so he summoned his Rashomon, and prepared for the impact.

It flew like a tailed beast bomb, only a brighter and white version, leaving behind scorched earth and ash in the air, the smell of burnt wood could be felt in all directions.

It blew through all The Rashomon Gates like a fist coming into contact with paper, When it reached Hashirama's Golem it exploded in a heaven shaking matter.

the Echoes of the explosion could be felt all the way to the village hidden in the sand, all of the elemental nations shook, seemingly like an earthquake of great magnitude, a rumbling sound filled all the surroundings and massive lightning-like light flashed across the Horizon, many spectators were blown away coughing blood and passed out.

For the first time in this battle, Aki felt satisfactions, unfortunately, it didn't last long as the dust cleared Hashirama appeared in a massive carted, his golem was destroyed and His body was reforming, a wry smile could be seen on his face, in his eyes battle intent began erupting in intensity for the first time, he shouted "HAHAHA, So you were this strong Akihiro, Let's fight seriously now, you got me in the mood, Good."

[For Defeating Hashirama Senju in battle 1.3mil SP Granted.]

Aki was shocked and elated still he said to the system "I didn't defeat him, he is still there."

[If he was alive he would have died that counts as defeating him.]

Aki responded in anticipation "doesn't that mean if I kill him, I would get even more SP ?! wait a moment, doesn't this mean if I do the same thing again I would gain SP ?!!!"

[... Yes.]

Aki eyes shined with intense greed while looking at hashirama, 'I can grind infinite SP HAHAHA, what a loophole.", Hashirama suddenly felt a foreboding feeling in his heart and began the constant exploit of the Aki's previous Jutsu.

He would constantly blow Hashrama to smithereens, and Gain SP at an insane rate, of course, he slowly started to feel weak because of his chakra going low but he ignored and continued.

To the onlookers, it seemed Aki had gone crazy with anger due to not succeeding in his first try and was trying to brute force his win, Hashriama could only throw out curse after curse from below, just as he was getting hyped for battle he was constantly suppressed and destroyed only to come back and the same happening over and over.

The person who had it worst would be Orochimaru because he was supplying the Chakra of Hashirama, He looked like a dried-up corpse, Jiraiya was constantly on edge trying to think of a way to help him and Tsunade was trying her best to supplement him with her chakra but the drainage was simply too huge, for the very first time since their genin days they saw tears in Orochimaru's eyes, it made him look cute and pitiful actually.

Aki noticed the speed which hashirama was reforming was beginning to slow down, so he came to the conclusion that the caster chakra was running out, 'Since it's like this I need to use every scrap of sp I can get, lets use mugetsu and get the kill bonus.', he shouted " Hashirama, thanks for everything I will send you back now, say hello to Madara for me.", he then turned to look at Tobirama with shining eyes, Tobirama understanding the tribulation coming his way instantly fled, unwilling to be under such cruelty, Hashirama's Curses grew even louder.

As Aki was beginning to use Mugetsu to kill Hashirama, something strange happened in the sky, a rift opened up and a very Dark and maddening aura descended upon the elemental nations.

Aki and Hashiram instantly ceased fighting and looked up, both of them looked grim because the aura was much stronger than anything any of them had ever felt before.

Laughter echoed from within with a tinge of insanity in it " haha System holder, Here I come I hope you don't disappoint me."

Aki hair stood on end thinking that this was not supposed to happen, he instantly said to the system" System what the hell is that, how does he know about you?!".

[Host, that is an Eldrich being who is here to consume you to grow stronger.]

" WHAT ?!!, why? HOW? , why didn't you say anything before, Explain EVERYTHING NOW!!!."

[Afirmative, Since Host's immediate Death is close then I shall explain the origin of the system.]
