Chapter 1002

Blood splashed.

Su Xiao was kicked flying by the Raikage. When he flew at least twenty meters away, his chest and shin regained some sensation.

Su Xiao landed staggeringly, and the Dragon Flash pierced into the ground, which prevented him from falling.

At this moment, there was no time to check the degree of injury to his shin. A firearm about thirty centimeters long, looking like a flintlock, appeared in Su Xiao's hand. If one observed carefully, one would find that this was not a flintlock. The entire gun was pitch black, the barrel was slender, and the barrel and grip were covered with blood-red patterns.

This gun was named 【Judgment of the Wild Hunt】, which was the handgun part of the Hunter set, with a capacity of five rounds and could only use special ammunition.

With the Raikage's speed, the possibility of the Wild Hunt hitting the opponent was not high, but now the Raikage was standing still, which was clearly bound by the attached ability of the Blade of the Blue Shadow, "Soul Electro-induction."

With a thud, a forearm landed on the ground. This was the Raikage's forearm. A moment ago, he had kicked Su Xiao flying, nearly breaking Su Xiao's shin. As the price, he had his left forearm severed by Su Xiao.

Su Xiao held the Wild Hunt level in front of him with one hand. His shin was nearly numb, and it was impossible to approach the Raikage quickly.

Bang, bang, bang...

Su Xiao pulled the trigger continuously. The muzzle of the Wild Hunt sprayed cyan flames, and bullets with transparent shells and filled with yellow liquid inside were fired.

The shells of these bullets seemed to be made of some kind of crystal, and there was a black metal needle in the center of each bullet.

The speed of the bullets fired by the Wild Hunt was not fast, but the Raikage was in a state of paralysis. He saw the five bullets flying toward him. However, his body was filled with a kind of light blue energy meridian. These energy meridians paralyzed his central nervous system like an anesthetic. To say nothing of moving, now he couldn't even breathe normally.

The crystal bullets flew quickly, and soon the first bullet hit the Raikage, the bullet head touching the Raikage's chest.

With a crack, the shell of the crystal bullet shattered, not hurting the Raikage at all, but the yellow liquid inside the crystal bullet splashed, and the black metal needle in the center pressed against the Raikage's skin.

Hum~

The tail of the metal needle suddenly spread out, and all those yellow liquids were adsorbed to the tail of the metal needle, turning from yellow to dark red.

Boom!

A not-so-loud but very powerful explosion came; it was the dark red liquid at the tail of the metal needle.

The impact of the explosion still didn't hurt the Raikage. All this impact acted on that metal needle. After bearing such a powerful propulsion force, the metal needle directly pierced through the Lightning Armor and followed the momentum into the muscles of the Raikage's chest cavity. This thing was called an explosive needle.

The moment the explosive needle entered the Raikage's chest, it bloomed like a flower. It did not explode, but turned into an iron flower, which pierced through a large area of muscle and was already firmly fixed in the Raikage's muscle. If the Raikage wanted to forcibly dig out this iron flower, he would at least have to tear off a piece of muscle the size of a bowl from his chest.

Almost instantly, the remaining four crystal bullets repeated the above process: rupture, explosion, explosive needle entering the body, explosive needle forming an iron flower, firmly fixed in the muscle.

This kind of bullet could no longer be described as cruel; this was using every method to destroy the enemy's body. Notorious ammunition like dum-dum bullets, compared to this kind of crystal bullet, were simply kindergarten children.

When the Raikage's body regained sensation, five iron flowers formed by explosive needles had already been firmly fixed in his muscles. Don't think that this was the end; these iron flowers could also be detonated.

The Raikage immediately sensed that something was wrong. If these metal flowers remained in his body, to say nothing of fighting, even normal breathing would require enduring heart-piercing pain.

The Raikage was also a ruthless person. He raised his only arm, his palm like a knife, actually wanting to forcibly dig out the explosive needles in his body.

How could Su Xiao give the Raikage such an opportunity? He immediately pressed a button on the grip of the Wild Hunt.

Crack.

The button covered with red patterns was pressed, and the Raikage, twenty meters away, immediately felt a burning sensation in his chest.

Boom!

An explosion came, and fire light wrapped the Raikage's entire upper body. Su Xiao clearly saw that the Raikage's figure began to stagger.

When the fire light dissipated, the Raikage did not fall, but on his chest, five flesh pits that looked like they had been bombarded by cannonballs appeared. These flesh pits were each the size of a bowl, and some positions had even exposed charred ribs.

In these flesh pits, there was not a drop of blood. The high temperature produced during the explosion had already caused the wounds to char. Compared to flesh-and-blood wounds, this kind of injury was more fatal.

Speaking of this, I have to mention the origin of the Hunter set. This thing was a weapon used by hunters to hunt black witches. Therefore, there was no need to consider issues like humanity. As the only attack weapon in the Hunter set, the Wild Hunt almost used every method.

Suffering such a terrifying injury, the Raikage only maintained a standing posture for a moment, then knelt on one knee with a thud.

"Puff."

The Raikage A spat out a large mouthful of blood, and fragments of internal organs could be vaguely seen in the blood.

If it were just an injury, it would be fine, but all five explosive needles hit the enemy and exploded at the same time. This triggered an ability of the Wild Hunt: detonating five explosive needles at the same time. This detonation would cause 500 damage to the enemy and put the enemy into a vulnerable state. In the vulnerable state, the enemy's physical defense -35%, healing effect -20%, movement speed -10%, and the effect lasts for 10 minutes.

The Raikage's strength lay in his body and speed, which had been tempered through hundreds of battles. And now, his body defense was reduced by 35%, and his speed was reduced by 10%. This was fatal for the Raikage.

Su Xiao stood in place without moving. It was not that he didn't want to move, but that his left shin was feeling heart-piercing pain.

Su Xiao took out a string of crystal bullets, five in total. The five bullets were connected by a metal bracket. This was a bullet he had ordered someone to make in the Mechanical Street, costing 200 Paradise Coins each. A total of 25 were made. Because the quantity manufactured was not small, the other party gave a discount, costing a total of 4,500 Paradise Coins.

Counting the 5 bullets that came with the Wild Hunt, Su Xiao had a total of 30 crystal bullets, and now there were 25 left.

The five bullets were stuffed into the loading port above the Wild Hunt, and the Wild Hunt was loaded.

Su Xiao held the Wild Hunt level. He was prepared to give the Raikage five more shots. If there was another detonation, even if the Raikage didn't die, he would be a fish on the chopping block, allowing him to slaughter.

Sasuke, who was nearby, witnessed the entire process of Su Xiao's battle with the Raikage. He walked toward Karin and the others in silence.

The Raikage looked at Sasuke. Although he really wanted to capture this brat alive, there was a strong enemy in front of him.

Just as Su Xiao was about to pull the trigger, the Raikage suddenly stood up, ignoring the injuries on his body, and began to maintain rapid movement.

Su Xiao put away the Wild Hunt. The bullets were too expensive and could not be wasted. He stomped his left foot. The heart-piercing pain in his left shin was still strong, but fortunately, it would no longer affect his rapid movement.

Su Xiao rushed toward the Raikage quickly. Although the Raikage was seriously injured, he still greeted Su Xiao. He was a close-combat ninja.

Fighting until now, the Raikage had already given up the idea of capturing Sasuke alive. As long as Su Xiao was there, this was undoubtedly wishful thinking.

Moreover, the Raikage knew one thing, which was that he absolutely could not die, absolutely could not.

No matter how arrogant the Raikage was, he knew that if he, as the Raikage, died during the Five Kage Summit, it would be a disaster. This was not about his personal fear of death, but about the problem of the entire Kumogakure.

The successor to the Raikage position, Darui, was already dead. If he were to die here too, Kumogakure would face a situation of having no leader. At that time, other ninja villages would definitely have designs on Kumogakure. As for that so-called peace treaty, the Raikage had never believed in that thing.
