MenuCHAPTER 391 - With the Thunder
After announcing his so-called inescapable
attack, Sasuke does nothing more but stare up into the clouds while
rain pours down heavily. Itachi then suddenly realizes what
Sasuke was starring at as a thunderous surge of lightning gathers
directly above them.
Zetsu‘s dark side is the first to
understand what Sasuke has been up to until now. The
fireballs which he fired earlier were not aimed at Itachi at
all. Sasuke blasted them into the atmosphere on purpose to
rapidly generate a rising air current - the key ingredient in creating
cumulonimbus, or thunderclouds. Sasuke had been preparing for
this attack
even during Itachi’s Amaterasu. The
reason why Sasuke ran outside instead of hiding inside the building
complex was to spread the Amaterasu’s black flames around in
order to help him further heat up the air above.Sasuke readies a Chidori and leaps up to the rooftop
again and then jumps further to reach the highest position on
the building. Instead of using his own chakra, Sasuke plans
on harnessing the lightning from the sky itself to attack
Itachi. He plans on using himself as the lightning rod and
then directing the incoming electricity directly onto Itachi using his
Chidori and lightning element manipulation. In short, it will
be a lightning element strike of a magnitude far beyond anything a
human can produce with his chakra. And
Sasuke
wasn’t bluffing when he said the jutsu was unavoidable;
because lightning can reach the ground in 1/10,000th of a second, there
is no way even Itachi can escape it.With all the conditions met, Sasuke raises his hand with the Chidori and announces his attack. He calls it Kirin, it is named after a mythical beast that was said to punish the wicked. A loud crack accompanied by a flash of lightning reveals for a second the form a giant beast resembling a dragon.
With the words “disappear with the
thunder”, Sasuke lowers his hand. In that instant a
powerful beam of lightning crashes down with such force that it
obliterates large sections of the building complex.
The attack is over quickly, and amidst the
smouldering rumble Sasuke spots Itachi lying face down and motionless
on the ground. Sasuke deactivates his Sharingan and
shouts out that it is finally over. But as the rain stops, a
familiar voice asks whether this was what Sasuke had envisioned of his
death. Sasuke jerks around rapidly and sees Itachi, dripping
blood from his mouth, slowly rise back to his feet. Sasuke
can’t believe what he is seeing. He is so
infuriated that he immediately transforms into his Cursed Seal level 2
state. However, this transformation is a bit different
because a familiar pattern suddenly appears around Sasuke’s
left eye - the same pattern which Orochimaru had.
