Chapter 47 Roshi's Strength

At the forest outside Tanzaku town,

"Drip!"

The blood pouring out of the slash wound dripped into the stream for only a few seconds, the lava around actually stopping the blood flow.

Though Roshi didn't seem to care about his wound, his shocked eyes locked on the silver hair kid who slowly turned around and gazed back at him, Roshi only finding absolute calmness in those brown eyes.

"Hahaha! Now that's a highlight of a lifetime, a kid nearly killed you there."

A mocking voice fell in the ears of Roshi, inside his spiritual consciousness a huge red monkey rolling on the ground and laughing to no end.

Roshi didn't say a word in response to the mocking laugh and just brought a very serious look on his face, the lava around him suddenly beginning to disappear and red bubbles of chakra seeping everywhere out of his skin.

"Even the single lava tail behind Roshi disappeared and were replaced by four tails covered with red boiling chakra,

ROAR!!!!!

In a matter of second Roshi went into tail beast chakra coat, going on his four's with four tails flicking behind, two white eyes gazing at Kazuki followed by an earth shaking roar.

SWISH!

Next micro-second the monster turned into a red light disappearing from the spot like blending into space, as wind rustled in the ears of Kazuki whose eyes widened.

"Quick."

Thought Kazuki with a wry smile on his face, in less than a second Roshi had appeared behind him not giving him time to dodge.

Water Style: Water Armor!

The fist surrounded by red chakra approached Kazuki's back, who only able to make a hand sign and nothing more.

On the back of Kazuki a layer of water chakra appeared and just when it wanted to spread all around his body, the red fist hit the back.

BOOM!!!!

PUFF!!!

The water armor couldn't offer much protection as the red fist penetrated through it and hit the exposed back, the impact generating massive gust of wind as like a cannon Kazuki shot from his place with his eyes nearly popping out.

BOOM!!!

Blood like a fountain sprayed out of Kazuki's mouth as flying upside down he banged into a couple of trees in the forest around, uprooting them.

Fire Style! Fiery Blade!

The time provided by Kazuki seemed enough for Fukashi to bring his focus back from the pain caused by the burn, appearing behind Roshi who had just punched kazuki away, his blade surrounded by flames.

Roshi sensed Fukashi appearing behind instantly, without turning around moving the four tails behind to attack him.

The sharingan of Fukashi spun as he did some incredible movements, dodging every tail easily and slashing at him with the blade surrounded by flames.

ROAR!!!

The fiery blade hit the back of Roshi, the red chakra coat although providing great defense but not able to block the attack completely, the tip of the fiery blade drilling into the back and the monster roaring in pain

Seeing his attack successful Fukashi smiled and attempted to pull out the blade to attack again but found himself unable to pull it out, his face changing at this development.

Swish!

Fukashi tugged again with an even greater force to pull out the sword but the air tearing sound fell in his ears and quickly he let go the blade, jumping in the air.

BOOM!!!

"That was close!"

The ground where he just stood drilled a tail destroying it, Fukashi mid-air watching what happened to the ground where he just was, relieved at dodging the attack.

Swish!

But his relieved look quickly disappeared as the other three tails moved and approached Fukashi mid-air, his sharingan spinning and barely evading the attacks mid-air.

"Zhuu!"

But the attack of Roshi was far from over, reaching out to pull the blade drilled into his back and throwing it at Fukashi, like a bullet reaching him.

Puff!

Fukashi who had barely dodged the tails and had just landed back on the ground couldn't do much against this attack, the blade drilling into his right shoulder.

ROAR!!!

Fukashi holding the bleeding right shoulder went on his knees, Roshi who had blood seeping out from his back roaring at the former and opening his mouth wide.

In the void before Roshi purple chakra began to gather slowly taking the shape of a head-sized purple ball.

"It's…Bijudama!"

A look of dread appeared on Fukashi's face watching the purple ball, he knew this was one of the last things a shinobi would ever want to be hit by directly.

"Huh?"

But at this moment, Fukashi frowned as the water of the stream under him moved suddenly and turned into a single water chain that coiled around him.

Before Fukashi could do anything in resistance the chain moved and flicked him away, at the corner of the stream Kazuki on his knees with a pale face, his right hand placed on top of the stream water.

"Do It Jiraiya-San!!"

Watching his water chain throwing Fukashi at a distance, Kazuki yelled like his life depended on it as next second a beam of fire shot out from the dark forest around and hit the purple ball before the mouth of Roshi.

BOOM!!!!

The fire beam hit the Bijudama, the white eyes of Roshi widening at this sudden change but even for him it was too late to do anything, the whole forest illuminated next second and a fire mushroom reaching towards the sky.
