Chapter 391: Might Guy Vs Sasori Part 1

Sasori: "This time, I will get my revenge."

(Sasori summons the Third Kazekage puppet to battle against Might Guy.)

(Swish... swish...)

(Sasori weaves his fingers through the air and attaches several chakra strings to the Third Kazekage Puppet.)

(Clack... clack...)

(The Kazekage puppet opens its mouth and releases a barrage of poison-laced senbons towards Might Guy.)

Might Guy: "Leaf Gust."

(Might Guy kick the ground and spin around to release a powerful gust of wind from his kick.)

(Swoosh...)

(The wind gust blows away the senbons.)

(The Kazekage puppet stretches its palm to reveal a chamber with a weapon- summoning seal.)

(Swish... swish...)

(A barrage of kunai attacks Might Guy from multiple directions.)

Might Guy: "This reminds me of my student, Tenten! Leaf Great Whirlwind"

(Might Guy spins and delivers a series of kicks in the air.)

(The powerful pressure from his kicks creates a gigantic protective whirlwind around him.)

(The whirlwind blocks and deflects the incoming barrage of kunais.)

(Fwoosh...)

(A tube-like appendage appears beneath the Kazekage puppet's palm.)

(The tube releases a concentrated purple smoke toward Might Guy at the moment he ends his spin.)

(The dense cloud of purple fog shrouds Might Guy.)

Might Guy: "Cough... cough..."

(Might Guy coughs slightly and jumps out of the purple fog.)

(He delivers a roundhouse and disperses the purple fog approaching him.)

Might Guy: "Poison!"

(Might Guy frowns as he is slowly losing sensation in his body.)

Sasori: "This is one of the most powerful poisons in the Shinobi world. It's one of my finest creations, a masterpiece indeed. No one, not even the Fifth Hokage known for exceptional medical skills, can counter this poison."

(Might Guy falls to the ground as the poison slowly spreads across his body.)

Might Guy: "Tch..."

(He grits his teeth and pops out a pill from his storage.)

Might Guy [in mind]: 'I hope the pill works.'

(Color returns to Might Guy's face as the effects of the poison recede slightly.)

Might Guy: "Cough... cough..."

(Might Guy coughs out some purple mist from his mouth.)

(He regains his mobility and slowly stands up.)

Sasori: "WHAT? What's going on? How could you dispel my poison so easily? It has been not long since I prepared my poison, and yet you already have an antidote for it."

(Sasori's puppet glares at Might Guy.)

Might Guy [in mind]: 'So, Izuna was right. This antidote can indeed treat all toxins.'

(Might Guy heaves a sigh of relief.)

Might Guy [in mind]: 'The poison was so toxic that I only inhaled a few fumes and yet I was poisoned to such a degree. If I took a breath of that purple fog, then I might have already died without even getting a chance to take the antidote pill. Still, I can't bring out my full strength for a couple of minutes.'

(Might Guy takes a Taijutsu stance and warily stares at the Kazekage puppet.)

Sasori: "The medical skills of the Konoha shinobi are truly exceptional. They even developed an anti-dote that can work against most poisons, including the powerful ones."

(Sasori sees through Might Guy's condition with a single glance.)

Sasori: "Even so, I am sure you can't draw your full strength for a while. That's more than enough to finish you off."

(Clack...)

(Sasori waves his hands.)

(The right arm of the puppet turns into a spinning blade.)

(A burst of red energy coats the blade, turning it into a giant spinning cutter.)

Sasori slightly weaves his arm, and another compartment opens on the left arm of the puppet.)

(A chainsaw pops out of the compartment.)

(The blade glows with red energy and slices through the nearby rocks like a knife cutting through tofu.)

(Sasori waves his hands and a nozzle opens on the back of the puppet.)

(Bzzt... Boom...)

(A burst of fire escapes from the nozzle, soaring the speed of the puppet.)

(The upper body of the puppet spins rapidly and creates a giant, red, spinning vortex.)

(Swish... swish...)

(Might Guy throws multiple kunais and shurikens toward the puppet.)

(Slash... slash...)

(The energy blade slashes through them and closes on Might Guy.)

(Might Guy crosses his arms in front of his body.)

Might Guy: "Eight Inner gates: Fourth Gate: Gate of Pain: Open."

(Might Guy's skin turns red, and a green aura surrounds him.)

(His hairs rise in the air due to the massive influx of chakra.)

(Might Guy's muscles swell up, boosting his physical strength to another level.)

Might Guy: "Violent-Leaf Adamantine- Strength Whirlwind."

(Might Guy spins and delivers a powerful roundhouse kick by focusing the green aura on his leg.)

(BANG...)

(The spinning red energy blades and Might Guy's kick clash with each other.)

(Sparks rise from the metal as Might Guy's aura kicks grind against the blade.)

Might Guy: "HAAH..."

(Might Guy infuses more aura into the blade and pushes even himself further.)

(Clank... Clang...)

(The blades snap in half and the arms of the puppet are blown away by Might Guy's powerful kick.)

Sasori: "Tch..."

(Sasori clicks his tongue and weaves his hand.)

(Click... cluck...)

(Another compartment opens on the shoulder of the puppet to reveal several summoning seals.)

Sasori: "Release,"

(The seals glow simultaneously and summon thousands of similar arms.)

(The overwhelming number of arms drowns Might Guy.)

Might Guy: "HUAHHH..."

(Might Guy roars and pumps up his chakra.)

Might Guy: "Violent-Leaf Adamantine- Coiling Whirlwind"

(A massive whirlwind infused with a green aura erupts around him.)

(The massive whirlwind blows away all the arms into small chunks and fragments.)

Sasori: "Heh..."

(Sasori smirks.)

(BANG...)

(A massive pillar of iron sand drops on top of Might Guy, crushing him beneath with a massive force.)

(A large amount of dust and debris rise in the surrounding.)

(A sizeable crater forms at the point of impact.)

(Sasori calmly stares at the giant crater.)

Sasori: "I thought it will be a bit more challenging, but that was easier than I expected."

(Rumble... Rumble...)

(Tremors run across the ground.)

(The massive pillar of Sand rocks sideways.)

Might Guy: "Fifth Gate: Gate of Limit: Open"

(BANG...)

(Might Guy deal a devastating blow to the iron sand pillar.)

(The pillar is pushed up into the air and crumbles into iron dust.)

(An intense green aura surrounds Might Guy.)

Might Guy: "Huff... Huff..."

(Might Guy huffs slightly as he jumps out of the crater.)

Might Guy [in mind]: 'I am still affected by the poison. It's interfering with the opening of my gates.'

Sasori: "Haha... hehe..."

(Sasori bursts out in a fit of laughter.)

Sasori: "It would be too underwhelming if it ends like that. Everything was an appetizer till now, from now onwards the real show begins. Iron Sand Drizzle"

(The iron sand around the third Kazekage puppet splits and compresses into multiple, smaller, bullet-like spheres.)

(The minuscule orbs harden even further with the alignment from the magnetic field and repellent force from the magnetic field shoots them toward Might Guy like explosive shells.)

(BOOM... BOOM... BOOM...)

(The hardened iron bullets bombard the vast area around Might Guy, closing his every route for escape.)

(Clench...)

(Might Guy clenches his teeth and smashes his fist on the ground.)

Might Guy: "Dynamic Earth Shifting."

(Using his powerful strength, Might Guy lifts a massive chunk of earth from the ground and uses it as a protective shield to block the barrage of iron bullets.)

(BANG... BANG... BANG...)

(The bullet barrage lasts for a minute, raising a cloud of dust and debris in the process.)

(The dust settles down to reveal a beehive- like structure in front of the Kazekage puppet.)

(The massive chunk of the earth in front of Might Guy has long crumbled into dust.)

(They are numerous holes in the ground and surrounding boulders.)

(The surrounding forest seems reminiscent of the arrival of a termite apocalypse.)

Might Guy: "Huff... Huff..."

(Might Guy is hiding behind a boulder.)

(Blood leaks from the injuries on his forehead and arms.)

(He quickly takes out a healing and rejuvenation pill to heal his wounds and recover his stamina.)

Might Guy [in mind]: 'The poison has been completely dispelled from my body. I can use my full strength now.'

Sasori: "Still, not dead!"

(Sasori weaves his fingers.)

Sasori: "Iron Sand Gathering Assault."

(Numerous sand particles gather around the Kazekage puppet.)

(The sand particles condense into multiple high-density constructs like arrows, spears, swords, and numerous other weapons.)

(Fwoosh...)

(A large number of weapons overwhelm Might Guy.)

(Might Guy clenches his fists.)

Might Guy: "Violent-Leaf Adamantine- Rising Dragon Falling Star."

(He rotates his hands and legs in a yin-yang pattern and releases the gathered green aura in his body in the shape of a dragon.)

Might Guy: "Rising Dragon..."

green dragon: "ROAR..."

(The green dragon roars and engulfs the incoming iron sand constructs into iron sand.)

(It continues to proceed towards Sasori.)

Sasori: "Damn it!"

(Sasori grits his teeth.)

(A massive amount of chakra gathers around the Kazekage puppet.)

Sasori: "Iron Sand World Order."

(A gigantic sphere of iron spikes branches out from the Kazekage's body.)

(The iron dust aligns with the magnetic chakra of the earth and crisscrosses into an unpredictable cage-like structure, trapping the green dragon within it.)

(Might Guy rotates his arm in a falling motion and slams them on the ground.)

Might Guy: "... Falling Star,"

(BOOM...)

(The massive dragon releases a roar and explodes.)

(The explosion blows away the massive cage of iron sand and engulfs Sasori with it.)

(Rumble... Rumble...)

(Ground trembles from the shockwaves released by the jutsu.)

(Wham...)

(The magatama bead at their position rises in the air and a giant black and white Tai Chi formation appears on the ground and sky.)

Might Guy: "I have a bad feeling about this!"

(Trusting his gut feelings, Might Guy immediately flees from the sphere of influence of the Tai Chi formation.)
