| - Bobu woke up from his slumber. He had activated his Area Draining Seal and was expecting to drain a lot of chakra for his daily use. But it seemed that the battle ended prematurely. Hearing Nisashi ask him a question, he decided to oblige and reply to him. "I'm the Dandy Man, didn't you know?" Bobu replied as he began executing a break dance in front of Nisashi. "I'm a dancer mang." Bobu continued dancing as he added on to his previous statement. "A....a dancer. I don't even want to question it at this point." Nisashi said, still quite sure he was dreaming as the recent string of events just made no sense in his mind. "So then, Dandy Man, why were sleeping in the middle of the training field? That was just flooded with lava." Nisashi asked of the dancing man. "Lava soothes the skin, didn'tcha know? Burns off all the calories, if you know what I mean." Bobu spoke as he suddenly changed from being a dancer to a gymnast, doing backflips around the area like a childish clown. "So this man fights a Kage and the Kage got called back by his mummy. Do you think she's from the egyptian tomb? I sure think she is! She's super old!" Bobu cheerfully spoke, Probably confusing Nisashi further. "Yeah that's a thing that happened. Also, I'm fairly certain that being engulfed in lava burn far more than calories." Nisashi said, befuddled by the man in front of him. "So you noticed my little scrap with the kage huh?" "What Kage? I was spending my time sleeping here, and all of a sudden this huge lava pool appeared and gave me a nice thermal bath." Bobu replied, speaking about the situation he found himself in. Certainly this guy was not completely drowsy - or was he? "B-but you just said that... you know what I'm not even going to bother." Confused as the man seemed to contradict himself with his statements. "Well, anyway I'm Nisashi, local Medical-nin, meeting you was... interesting." "AND I AM THE GREAT WANDISIMO!" Bobu replied, extending his arm out for a strong handshake. This man was baffled, and for good reason, for Bobu was not known to make real sense when confronting people, despite his highly analytical mind. "Would you care for battle, Mister Medic? Your strength and power look formidable!" Bobu spoke cheerfully, singing praises in ways completely contrasting his previous attitude. To Bobu he knew this was going to be fun, considering what he saw Nisashi doing earlier. "Well, I was going to head home, but I am rather upset my fight with Shenron was cut short." He gripped Bobu's hand and shook it. "You've got yourself a match, though we should probably take it away from the village, considering my last fight was just recently interrupted for disturbing the village." "LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!" Bobu rose up into the air as he laughed maniacally. Out from Bobu's body all sorts of terrifying monstrosities emerged continually from the recesses of his body, overlapping with his image to look like a vampiric asura as thousands of bats Charged towards Nisashi's position, shielding Bobu from Nisashi's sight. The many bats would transform into various light forms of illusory creatures, so weird and abnormal that they seemed to transform into the very environment itself, twisting it into an imaginary image. If Nisashi looked at Bobu after the bats flew away from his range of vision, he would see Bobu disappearing into bats, as his location became indeterminate. As the images died down into forming the periphery, noticeable asuras appeared to engage him, with Bobu's real clones appearing alongside these asuras, transformed, ready to engage Nisashi in battle. They roared and growled, making sounds like they came from the depths of hell, and with the massive distorted periphery, it was practically a scene from some weird dream. "I seem to be starting a lot of fights like this lately." Nisashi though to himself as he released a dense wave of explosive chakra into the air. "Although I suppose it can't be helped." A large violent explosion erupted around Nisashi. After which he released his own swarm of bats and birds and sent them straight into the swarm created by Bobu. Having been infused with explosive chakra, they began rapidly detonating within the swarm, attempting to clear or at least disperse a large portion of them. "I can tell your abilities are extraordinary already, I think we can have some fun here!" Nisashi said, growing excited. "Yes, but do you know what is real? Is what you see, real? Is what you think, real? Is what you feel, real? That is the question." Bobu's voice changed into a deep variant like Morpheus as he commented, his illusory constructs getting bombarded left and right and reverting into the very essence of energy from whence it came. Yet the illusionary periphery had yet to subside, in fact it only became more deadly as some of the asuras grew in size. Such mythical illusions were not natural in this realm, yet in this illusory world, a seeming construct of the mind so fleeting, the overwhelming nature of this temporary truth invigorated the battlefield as the Asuras charged, Without fear of death, these creations were both fake, but real. Embodying the symbol of war and righteousness, their existence was merely temporal. Still, they charged nonetheless, the rage of war overpowering them. The minds of the clones of Bobu enjoyed this experience, it gave them new life, the ability to fight for what is right without fear of death, and they charged Nisashi. Not for anything important, but to simply contribute to this grand fantasy that was the spar between Bobu and Nisashi. To the latter it would be like a dream, an unforgettable one. Then, the periphery shifted to become a wartorn landscape of dead carcasses and bodies, as the Asuras charged whilst giant. They unleashed a hail of arrows which multiplied as they charged and clashed with Nisashi's explosions. "FOR THE CAUSE!" A large bulky Asura clone smashed down upon a particularly large construct of a bat, and jumped back as it detonated. The clones which looked like Asuras stared down Nisashi as they fired weapons to clash with his seemingly endless army of constructs, whilst the larger clones at the back seemed to be plotting something. "I don't even know what's going on!" Nisashi said, being taken in by the sheer craziness surrounding him. "It's an orgy of destruction and chaos! I wish I had another set of hands!" Nisashi felt as though this was the first time in years he could just cut loose and let all seriousness be casted away. "Actually, that gives me an idea." Nisashi formed constructs in the form of a second pair of arms, which continued spraying smaller explosive constructs at the various things in front of him. He then opened the first gate and used his real arms to begin rapid firing aimed explosions at the larger clones in the back. "DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA!" Screamed as he rapid fired explosions at all the clones in sight. The number of arrows multiplied further, as did the Size. It was clear to Bobu that conventional firepower would be insufficient to deal with this guy, as the very periphery twisted when Nisashi's attacks fired through, morphing to give the exact impression of an explosion-ridden battlefield. The only reason why the arrows were sufficient, was because Bobu's clones were firing larger and stronger arrows with each passing second, using the basic Enlargement Technique to meet his foe with blunt force - but it was readily apparent that such strategies were lacking in strength. His Asuras, viewing the challenge, became more monstrous, as they altered their appearance and increased their size to match the monstrous assault being unleashed by Nisashi. The brute force assault accentuated the sheer chaos in this land, as his Asuras screamed at the top of their lungs, "FOR HONOUR AND GLORY TO THE SCOURGE!" The clones which numbered in the hundreds, began forming shadow clones of their own. Each turning into massive rocks , the Asuras then charged and hurled them with all their might as they unleashed the rocks, which became more massive as they cloned and clashed with Nisashi's explosions. Meanwhile, the real Bobu had long since unleashed his Area Draining Seal , the chakra unleashed being drained as it became nigh-impossible to sense. To Nisashi it would seem completely unrealistic - for in what world wouldn't he be able to sense this illusion's chakra? Genjutsu or not, this was too surprising for anyone to witness, and in the case of Bobu, he rejoiced when such chaos was rampant. "BLOOD FOR THE HIGHBORNE!" The real Bobu shouted as he was revealed to be in the sky, charging downwards in freefall. The sight of him would make one ignore him, if not for the very periphery distorting around Bobu's presence, as it gave way to reveal hundreds of kunai coated in lightning chakra heading towards Nisashi's location, alongside the meteors unleashed earlier. Truly it seemed like Nisashi was in a battlefield, for in this realm where even illusions mimic reality, what can truly be said to be real? "Oh boy!" The kunai could be seen bombarding the area in which Nisashi stood, kicking up a thick cloud of dirt and dust. When the dust settled it could be seen that Nisashi was no longer standing there. Having accelerated from his previous position, Nisashi shouted at his opponent. "HEY DANDY MAN! YOU MISSED!" He then moved away from the village with extreme speed away from the village. "Woop woop woop woop woop woop!" "HEY NISASHI!" Bobu shouted from range as his asuras charged atop the massive meteors he had previously unleashed. "DID YOU KNOW THAT BARNEY IS A DINOSAUR?!" Bobu questioned as the Asuras took to using a more powerful transformation, turning the dream more bizarre, as gigantic dinosaurs formed atop the meteor from where the Asuras transformed, the periphery becoming more colourful every moment. Sounds of sheer joy emanated across the 4 corners, as the clones making up the periphery began eerily singing a cheerful tone. The atmosphere itself seemed to warp as it moved alongside Nisashi, the clones making it up moving with him, adding onto the sheer imaginary nature of the chaotic arena Bobu created. From the distance, Bobu's Barney Dinosaurs charged, kicking up massive dust clouds as they charged towards Nisashi's position. The tiny arms of Barney wailed as the Barneys charged, and from within their mouths the nature of their sharp teeth was revealed to unleash thousands of miniature asuras, which was formed by his asuras from before splitting into more asuras via shadow clones. "THE SKY IS FALLING! THE SKY IS FALLING!" Bobu shouted once more as he began using his chakra control, tugging the periphery to depict the clouds falling. "Very well! I shall take on your legion of dinosaurs." Nisashi's skin turned red and green aura surrounded him. "Let's see how fare against this, dream man!" Nisashi used his ability to quickly access the eight gates and skipped straight to the gate of wonder. He would also grow significantly more muscular as he activated the Body Revival Technique. "Let's see how you handle this!" Nisashi lept into the air and threw an incredibly powerful punch as he dive straight into the center of the horde commanded by Bobu. An incredibly powerful shockwave would occur, flattening and elevations in the landscape and creating a deep crater centered on the point of impact. Nisashi would see a few of the dinosaurs, which were all as huge as Deidara's massive clay clone, fly away from the immense shockwave as they attempted to stay on the ground, but to no avail. Massive chunks of "meat" were torn off the Barney's faces, as they were sent flying a massive distance and promptly dispelled. The legions of Asuras, which were supplementing the great Barneys, had all each unleashed massive numbers of meteors from before. Yet, it all crumbled under Nisashi's Daytime Tiger, as all the meteors were promptly deflected and shattered across the landscape, leaving massive chunks of fiery earth where the meteors landed, contrasting the eerily happy background that was conjured by Bobu's clones. As the sky fell, the sky parted to reveal a massive fire attack which came from Bobu, revealing Bobu's true location as Nisashi tore through the army of asuras, half of which comprised Academy clones, revealing that the sky was in fact falling. "FRESH! COOL! ALE!" Bobu screamed as the great flames descended upon the battlefield. The Asuras, deigning to support their almighty overlord, was pleased to follow his command, as they gathered chakra and released torrents of oil which began encompassing the battlefield, smothering it in complete flames which would threaten Nisashi, from both top and bottom, as the massive flood suddenly caught fire. The periphery, comprising transformed clones, twisted further to reflect Armaggedon, as the fiery image enhanced the sight of flames encompassing the battlefield, giving the impression that there was much more fire than what was actually there. "Interesting! INTERESTING! NOT BAD NISASHI UZUMAKI!" Bobu and his clones shouted whilst executing the attack, as if encouraging him to retaliate. "This is my dream! Anything is possible if I think hard enough." Nisashi felt as though, if he tried , he could truly achieve anything. He created a construct of a thin blade and pierced his own chest just above the heart. He was soon after feeling the rush of being empowered by the Seventh Gate. "I will not be bested within my own mind! Here there is nothing I can't achieve!" Nisashi ran at inhuman speeds straight into the fire, which would likely surprise even his clearly insane opponent. Nisashi quickly made use of several techniques to amplify his abilities even further. "I am the strongest there is and you shall feel my power! Suddenly entering an advanced eight gates state Nisashi bombarded the area around him, punching with speeds comparable to that of Morning Peacock with each punch having force comparable to the Daytime Tiger, and every punch infused with massive amounts of explosive chakra. "I am the mighty Saitama! The unbeatable hero!" Massive explosions filled the area as the oil was punished and sent splashing all across the landscape, creating the scenery of fire that Bobu initially only forged, only now it had become a reality. Tornadoes wrought the battlefield as massive shockwaves tore the landscape apart, as Bobu's Asuras stared in awe at this fierce warrior, this killer made hero, the man made a GOD. But this did little to dampen their spirits. Their fiery spirit roared as they expended their chakra, creating a Wind Release: Great Breakthrough which enhanced the massive power sent out by Nisashi, whilst some got dispelled from the power unleashed by Nisashi's fury. Yet, even this rampant power did nothing to quell Bobu's thirst for battle, in fact, it only strengthened it as the winds from the powerful shockwaves augmented his own wind techniques, creating a truly magnificient tornado in the middle of the battlefield where Bobu initially unleashed the fire technique. The tornado raged, attempting to suck all of the battlefield into its epicentre as it moved with Bobu via sheer natural forces, the only reason for Bobu's survival being that he had absorbed the chakra from his dispelled clones and used it to enhance his durability. "THE POWERS OF OLYMPUS GUIDE ME!" Bobu let out an exuberant roar as the tornado coalesced around him, the winds and shockwaves of the Daytime Tiger fuelling it further as his asuras and barneys were torn to shreds and burnt into ashes, laughing as they got destroyed. "TRULY YOUR POWER HAS DENIED WHAT IS RIGHTFULLY YOURS!" Bobu added, as if reminding Nisashi of his self-imposed limitations preventing him from ascending, from experiencing the thrill of fighting an unstoppable opponent, without much risk of dying. Bobu laughed on maniacally as the tornado grew larger. In the fires within a weapon was being forged, one that would surpass the very foundation of reality. It was Bobu attempting to execute the transformation of the century. As the size of the tornado grew the chakras raging within grew stronger, a testament to Bobu's exertion, as several Mighty Asuras emerged from within, slowly changing Bobu's form into something different, something unreal and yet undeniably a product of sheer epicness. As the transformation was occurring, Bobu could be heard shouting statements into the air, as if showing off his lung capacity. "WHAT YOU SAW BEFORE, WAS MY NORMAL STATE!" The voice could be heard speaking this as Nisashi unleashed his terror upon the battlefield. "THIS IS A SUPER MAN!" Bobu roared to the heavens as if declaring his might, in an attempt to face off against the beast and monster Nisashi Uzumaki. "THIS IS A MAN WHO HAS ASCENDED PAST A SUPERMAN! You can call this a SUPERMAN TOO!" Bobu could be heard saying this as the tornadoes grew larger, seemingly fuelled by nothing but sheer environmental circumstance, perfectly spontaneous as a result of Nisashi's moves. "AND THIS! IS TO GO! EVEN FURTHER BEYOND!" Bobu screamed to the heavens in defiance of Nisashi Uzumaki. His energies roared as they manifested in the form of a transformation, turning him into an amalgamation of monstrous creatures, with a massive body bulk that would make even Nisashi's large toned muscles pale in comparison, combined with the wings of dragons, 4 additional arms of the asuras, and a spiked body that made him reminiscent of a creature from hell. His size increased exponentially as well, as the chakra from his clones returned to him, supplementing his powers further, as he used a large proportion of his energy, slowly bringing Bobu closer to chakra exhaustion despite himself draining Nisashi's released chakra. Delivering a single punch, the combined power of the chakra flow made to enhance his transformed body allowed him to break the very foundation of the Earth beneath him, creating a sink which would force the oil to be drained away, while simultaneously dispelling the powerful tornado around him. Standing at an awe inspiring 11 feet, he stared down Nisashi and asked. "So, unbeatable God Emperor, are you ready to prove your mettle?" Bobu asked, as he snapped his fingers, causing the periphery to transform into a massive coliseum filled with spectators cheering, with the two of them at the centre. "Training so intensely for so long, I had the chance to think about a lot of things, including the nature of the world itself. And after lengthy consideration, I realized something; When all is said and done, this world is an unknowable place. On the surface, all appears rational, orderly. But what lies beyond that thin veneer of reason? Stability and reality? Or chaos and madness? What are we really made of in the end? Is there truly any meaning to the lives we lead? Or are we nothing more than hollow vessels? These are questions we can never answer, because we cannot hope to see beyond the world's fragile layer of skin. So we live our lives filled with uncertainty, never knowing who or what we truly are, or what the future will bring. All we can do is imagine. Life becomes an unsolvable mystery with any number of twists and turns awaiting us. Nothing but our own strength and the strength of those around us can carry us onward in the wide cruel world." Nisashi's tone suddenly went from slow and melancholic to an adrenaline filled excitement. "I hadn't felt like this for so long that I had forgotten about it. The feeling of excitement you can get from a battle! This is the feeling! The feeling I have been searching for all this time!" Nisashi let out a triumphant roar to his opponent. "The Bird of Hermes is my name... Eating my wings to make me tame. You shall see my true power here and now. No longer will I hold back against you! Now! You shall witness the wrath of a Man Beyond God!" In that instance, Nisashi's chakra potency seemed to increase drastically. He formed a ball of swirling chakra in his palm. "Explosion Release: Rasengan!" With that he lunged at Bobu, aiming to ram the small pall of pure destructive power into his stomach. The chakra which encompassed Bobu's transformation danced wildly. Though the oil was drained through the hole, that did not meant it was gone, and as Bobu's Area Draining Seal continued absorbing the oil, his stamina was once more heightened. In his transformed state, he was keen to most forms of motion, even the slightest change, for the very environment was literally comprised of him. Sensing the technique the instant it was unleashed, after Nisashi's speech, Bobu's chakra could be seen moving to his fist - despite the fact that it couldn't be felt, as one of his additional arms coated itself with osmium and seals, rushing to grab the explosive sphere at the point of impact, relying on his Chakra Flow: Ultimate Physique to build his body to the point of supposed indestructibility. The crowd cheered as there was a massive explosion at the centre of the battlefield. Nisashi's Explosive Rasengan was unlike any other variant of Rasengan, for it exploded whatever it tore apart into a chain reaction of unparalleled strength. Bobu's very osmium was turned against him as Nisashi's highly fuelled Rasengan, empowered by several of the gates, threatened to overpower Bobu's very own chakra construct with the greatest of ease, turning his very power against him. All seemed lost until Bobu condensed the area of his Area Draining Seal to the very area of the palm of his hand. Despite the durability afforded by his Chakra Flow, it was barely sufficient as the explosive rasengan kept bursting explosions in Bobu's very palm, threatening to rip it apart as the Area Draining Seal rapidly attempted to drain it as quickly as possible, reducing the damage to a significant extent. That was, atleast, until the Rasengan exploded like its very namesake. Truly, Bobu had never seen nor felt so much chakra in one technique, not since his last contact with certain chakra monsters. The explosion itself bolstered the Rasengan's very shredding properties, as it exploded continually with every moment it was in contact with its target, which, at the moment, was Bobu. His transformed Asura arm, the one he used to hold back the technique, practically had its skin torn apart as Bobu attempted to absorb the technique outright while being sent backward. "WHERE IS HE HIDING ALL OF HIS ENERGY?" Bobu wondered out loud as he was blown back across a far distance by Nisashi's powerful technique. The spectators burst in cheer as they saw Bobu getting blown casually into the air by an explosive lightshow - something rarely seen no matter where you were. Yet, there was no real room for respite for Nisashi, for with Bobu's disappearance into the air came a new burst of surprises. As Lady Luck would predicate, not all of Bobu's clones were really destroyed by Nisashi's attack, in fact, some of said clones were hidden within the very periphery itself, as transformed shadow clones. Revealing themselves at that moment, they assumed the form of Bobu's current state, emerging seemingly out of nowhere behind and beneath Nisashi, releasing the built up chakra within by opening their mouths and unleashing massive gale force winds designed to push Nisashi off his feet from the sides, as the clone from below deigned to use Body Flicker: Instant Projectile to strike Nisashi as the gale force winds were released. Regardless of what happened, the gale force winds would slowly grow in power to shift the very image of the landscape itself, eroding structures and constructs of all kinds into their fundamental constituents, the foundation on which they were built. These winds would continue encompassing the area, while the audience would remain unaffected by it all, enhancing the incredulous impression Nisashi would have regarding this area. "IN THE END! THERE WILL ONLY BE CHAOS! THIS CRUEL WORLD IS PROOF OF THAT!" Bobu's clones shouted, whether they succeeded or failed in their attacks. Truly, it was as if Nisashi was fighting a challenger whom cannot defeat him, yet himself couldn't be defeated. This was what made a true battle, a continuous challenge between 2 parties attempting to beat each other in their own game. Nisashi was struck and sent flying in the opposite direction of his opponents. Unbeknownst to Bobu, Nisashi allowed himself to be struck to gain some distance from bobu and his constructs. Nisashi unleashed an entire grid composed of several dozen chakra chains. These chains absorbed natural energy at insane rates, and Nisashi began converting the natural energy into chakra as it was brought to hit. The chains also served as a barrier, releasing massive explosions upon bobu and his clones if they tried to get close. Nisashi would let nothing stop the technique he was preparing. Nisashi rose his hands to the sky and released all of the built up chakra in the form of a massive orb, as if demonstrating what he was capable of to bobu. The orb continued to continuously grow. "Bigger! Bigger! Bigger!" The orb increased in size with each uttering of the word. Until Nisashi himself was nearly invisible beneath the size and weight of the sphere. "Prepare yourself! The real battle begins now!" With that Nisashi began absorbing the entirety of the chakra sphere into his body, as if he had displayed it purely for intimidation. As the insane levels of chakra began flowing into Nisashi's body he made use of his own Chakra Flow: Ultimate Physique and raised his strength, speed, and durability to ineffable levels. "I am Nisashi Uzumaki, the Ultimate Lifeform." With those words Nisashi lunged at Bobu with such immense force, that to anyone capable of actually tracking his speed, it would appear as though he were flying. As he passed he left massive Explosion Release: Explosive Bombardment in his wake, attempting to decimate any clones or constructs he passed. When he reached what he believed to be the true Bobu, he pulled back his fist and yelled. "Eight Gates: Twilight Dragon!" Just before his fist made contact, a massive construct of a dragon would engulf Bobu and carry him away. The dragon then, having been infused with absurd amounts of explosive chakra, would create a massive explosions concentrated on bobu. The battle was intense, just as Bobu had expected. But never had he seen someone unleash the full magnitude of the gates, and manipulated its chakra so effectively. The very environment Bobu created began to distort at certain points, the shadow clones hidden within the very reality itself dispersing as Nisashi carried out his 2012 procedure, annihilating the realm with explosions. The spectators, dazzled by this incredible sight, cheered harder for Nisashi as they watch the massive ball of chakra form, devastating the landscape with its sheer presence. Such levels of chakra were never seen before, not since... the end of the Great War, where titans ravaged the landscape with their incalculable levels of chakra and power, distorting the very fabric of reality through sheer effort alone, Nisashi was truly a genius. The massive ball of chakra grew, and with it the sheer devastation wrought on the landscape. Fires raged at the edges of the battlefield from the meteors unleashed before, and mountains were separated and broken apart from the dazzling winds that were unleashed from Nisashi's attacks. A pit of Hell laid beneath them, where the oil once was, and the sheer gravity of Nisashi's technique was that it would cause the very landscape to be torn apart, and Nisashi weighed down from the very mass of his created chakra, the chakra density surrounding him surpassing even that of Might Guy. Bobu saw this, the power that could end all wars in front of him. But he knew what must be done. Having sworn to his path in Mercs Next Door, to transform the world through peace, there was no point to using Nisashi's strength to wreck havoc in the shinobi world. He would not fall into the same trap as his shinobi predecessors. Once more using his Area Draining Seal, he commanded all other insects to stray from the seal, except for one lone Kidaichu. Concentrating the entirety of the Area Draining Seal to the location where Nisashi was, he commanded the Kidaichu to feed. And feed on the chakra it did. It grew to immense sizes rapidly, a trait normal when feeding Kidaichu, as it ate the chakra unleashed from Nisashi's very passive existence and techniques. Then, Nisashi kicked off, his powers tearing the very landscape apart. "YOUR POWER IS RISING! BUT ARE YOU TRULY INVINCIBLE?" Bobu asked as his chakra flared, summoning a Kidaichu dwarfing even Tailed Beasts, slowing down Nisashi's coveted sequence of destruction, if only for a moment, while the real Bobu screamed and shouted as the spectators beneath cheered for Nisashi, hoping to see him defeat the Tyrant Bobu. The attack tore apart the Kidaichu like a Trunk's Sword through Frieza, yet that span of time was sufficient for Bobu - for he was now hidden from Nisashi's sight. Absorbing more chakra from Nisashi's very presence, Bobu had an epiphany - It was Time. Gathering his chakra, he formed a shadow clone containing his power, as he reverted the Transformation back to his own original, weak form. The shadow clones, each dispersed by Nisashi, sent chakra back into the very recesses of Bobu's body as its energies grew once more, while the shadow clone, with all of its durability and the close ranged Area Draining Seal, was sent to handle the onslaught. In the next instant, the clone was ripped to shreds, Nisashi's very strength turning Bobu's enhanced durability into the joke of the century. The previously oppressive, unstoppable Asura that was defiant to even Nisashi's explosive Rasengan could not handle even a moment of the attack, as it was promptly ripped apart even with its Chakra Flow. Yet, this small instant was enough, for the chakras drained by the close ranged seal, in that small instant in contact with so much pure chakra, was sufficient for Bobu's needs. In the distance, the real Bobu began to charge up as the chakra returned to him in large fractions. 12%, 25%, 50%, the energy contained within each shadow clone was immense, and now, it would serve its purpose. Using the energy, he summoned a Kikaichu King he had hid within himself for so long. Its oppressive aura flooded the area with the impact of Bobu's chakra, which would surprise Nisashi with its sheer amount, as it literally overcame the Area Draining Seal's concealing capacity, rendering it possible to sense, where before only Nisashi's unfathomably powerful 8 Gates technique barely succeeded. For the first time in the battle, Nisashi would be struck by the impression of Chakra, when before it had been concealed by Bobu for so long. To Nisashi, this would likely seem to be an unstoppable foe. Then, the spectators, who were cheering for Nisashi before, suddenly looked on in terror at this creature. There was no insect that huge, nor that power, as its energies penetrated the heads of Bobu's clones and had them respond in fear. Now, Nisashi would have to be a hero, else in this supposed dream, all his supporters would die. "THIS CREATURE AND I ARE ONE!" Bobu's voice echoed throughout the landscape, as if attempting to reaffirm everyone's perception that this creature was him as well, especially since its chakra was precisely like Bobu's. Its chakra density began warping the very periphery itself, as Bobu attempted to make his Kikaichu King seem ever more imposing against Nisashi. "What the hell are you?" Nisashi suddenly felt as though there was no way he could win this fight. Where as some people would admit defeat, or even try to flee, Nisashi only found excitement. "You are a creature truly worthy of defeating me, but let us see if you can get the job done!" Nisashi, having for the first time been able to sense that Bobu was absorbing chakra he released another set of dozens of chains to bring natural energy to him, however, he actually used natural energy to create the chains, nad once again began rapidly absorbing natural energy from his environment and converting it into chakra. Nisashi would keep a large portion as natural energy this around and charge it into an incredibly fast beam at the newly formed kikaichu King. "I will defeat you! No matter the odds!" With that the beam became more intense and doubled in width. The Kikaichu King was struck, and was immediately sent flying. A Taijutsu combination of such blinding speed, that the massive creature could do nothing to defend against it. The strength of such a powerful creature was huge, yet, against the raw might of a Taijutsu technique, one of its primary weaknesses, there was no real way it could endure that without receiving damage. As it spiralled upwards in the air, getting struck by Nisashi's technique, the very clouds in the sky split apart as if to show the magnitude of Nisashi's incredible strength and power, as the laser not only pushed the Kikaichu King upwards into the sky, but also attempted to incinerate it using the natural energy formed from the technique. Coating the Kikaichu King's very body, it began burning the very chakra which made it so fearsome, that was, until the Kikaichu King's enzymes kicked in, deconstructing the fiery nature of the Natural Energy working to burn its chakra, such that while it remained coated in fire, the effects of Nisashi's extreme technique would be somewhat mitigated. By the end of the onslaught, a chip in its dense exoskeleton could be seen, a testament to Nisashi's sheer strength. "The realm this world occupies seems so illusory, doesn't it Nisashi?" Bobu spoke in melancholy as his Kikaichu King dived towards Nisashi, coated in flames and with durability unmatched, it strived to strike Nisashi head on as Bobu rode atop it. Across the periphery, the spectators screamed as other meteors seemed to bombard the battlefield, threatening the safety of the temporal spectators. "For what point do we strive so hard? You have seen it yourself. The unstoppable dangers the village faces, the insults dealt at you for doing your job. All that remains will be the veneer of tolerance that "leaders" give you, never appreciating you, and always expecting more. Is this what leaders do!? There is no need for leaders that only take... FOR LEADERS OF DEATH!" Bobu passionately spoke as he voiced out a concern regarding the ninja world, involving a truth that everyone knew was apparent, yet did nothing to address. Nisashi forced himself to remain calm. He'd kept an eye on the original Bobu and focused his gaze on it. He did not attempt to dodge he planned to meet this beast, who seemed unstoppable, head on. He ignored the beats word and focused only on his counter attack. He began using all of the chakra he was building up to further his ineffable strength to even further levels. "I had a dream when I was young. I dreamt that I would stand against monsters others thought were unstoppable. I would stand against these seemingly unstoppable foes and I would defeat them all...." Nisashi looked at the storm of "meteors" heading toward him and dive straight toward the one he had tracked and deduced was the real Bobu."...with one punch" he released the full force of his strength resulting in more raw power then anything he had released in the entire fight, and it was aimed directly at the chip in the exoskeleton. "That fire in his eyes... there's no mistaking it." Bobu recalled a certain chakra monster he had seen before. "Let's see the strength of your resolve! The power that will change the world!" As Bobu said these lines in response to Nisashi, the whole world went dark, and the tone of the battle shifted to that of seriousness. As Bobu's flaming Kikaichu King charged downward, chakra blazing, Bobu executed something Nisashi wouldn't expect, as the very environment tensed up as if holding its breath in awe at the significance behind Bobu's subsequent technique, for Bobu then unleashed a Combination Transformation with his Kikaichu King. The lands roared in defiance as a new monster was born. One that could shape the very landscape by simply existing. As Bobu took on his new form, human sized yet covered in a newly formed Exoskeleton, the fires seemingly became part of this form, as it magically joined the Kikaichu King as being part of the transformation. As the new Bobu continued charging downwards, he added a little extra power into his strike, possessing the same momentum as the Kikaichu King earlier, yet miraculously maintaining the same mass despite his small size. This strike would hit Nisashi's fist head on, as thunder and lightning crackled throughout the battlefield. The force of the clash generated a massive shockwave, shattering the very foundations of Earth and reshaping the landscape at a whim. The winds generated altered the very feature of the air as clouds could be seen being ripped apart, the water contents withiN becoming the very source for tornadoes of lightning and water, creating natural disasters at every point of possibility. The fires generated from the immense friction underlying Bobu's acceleration also played a purpose as well, as the winds magnified the flames to levels unforetold in history, making an ocean of flames look as if it were an understatement by comparison. Truly, the force behind this blow was intense, and nobody knew who would win, as both put in their sheer strength and power into this massive strike. "When all this is over, the one who stands in the end, is righteous. So Nisashi, SHOW ME WHAT YOU'RE MADE OF!" Bobu shouted as their fists collided, with its might so powerful that even Bobu's illusions began to falter, revealing the sorry state that their choice of battlefield was left in - a barren wasteland. The collision of the two men would result in a shockwave that would devastate the already tattered wasteland. The force of the impact shattered the ground, and the sheer magnitude of the impact would lift the earth ground causing it to rise, break, and swirl around the two men. The two men remained at a stalemate with their fists unable to budge one another. "Hey, what happened to that giant bug meteor thing?" Before an answer could be given, another shockwave from the force built up at the point of impact would blast the two men away from each other. When Nisashi landed and gained his bearings, he unleashed a hidden trump card. Earlier when Nisashi unleashed his chains, unbeknownst to Bobu, he had left another set in the ground going deep down like roots, absorbing natural energy nonstop throughout the course of the two men's collision. At Nisashi's command, his chains erupted from deep within the earth, being absorbed into Nisashi's body and the massive amounts of energy they had stored. With this energy, as it was converted to chakra Nisashi created yet another massive ball, this time comprising it of explosive chakra with the intent of hurling it at Bobu. "This is the ultimate bomb, made from the energy of the Earth, and you're gonna eat it!" With those words he hurled the massive ball at Bobu. "The bug? He's here. I am it, we are one!" Bobu replied, his chakra flow reaching levels unparalleled as he clashed with Nisashi's mighty fist, which began shattering the very dimension as cracks began forming around the sides, as if signalling to Nisashi that the dream was falling apart. Then, an unforeseen explosion tore the landscape apart, as Nisashi pulled into the palm of his hand the very energies of the earth, so massive in chakra use that it could put Tailed Beasts to shame. Viewing this very development, Bobu was undeniably impressed - for in what world could someone possess so much chakra? "You are right young one, I am going to eat it." Bobu ominously spoke as the energy ball headed towards him. Even with all the energy he had gained from merging with his long-developed Kikaichu King, he was irreversibly hurled back by the very energies contained within the ball, reminiscent of a certain technique. Striking Bobu with peerless momentum, the very shockwave generated from its moving existence devastated the landscape, creating a horizontal tornado where it pushed Bobu, who tried to hold it back. Wielding the very chakra that he had gained, Bobu attempted protecting himself by grabbing onto the ball, and using a fundamental skill to anchor himself, but to no avail. The amount of friction created beneath Bobu's feet generated lava when he was pushed back, causing massive sparks to burst uncontrollably from Bobu's position as he was struck through several mountains and even further beyond. The very gale force winds which accompanied the attack then caught fire, as Bobu tried futilely to slow the technique down via his Area Draining Seal and his very own durability. The instant he hit the ocean, his arms gave way and he was completely and utterly engulfed by the chakra bomb itself. Nisashi would see Bobu disappear from sight, courtesy of his own technique, and witness the very chaos he had wrought on the landscape as Bobu's illusions revealed to him the chaotic devastation his dream-like stupor had unleashed, though considering all that happened so far, there was little that would convince Nisashi that this was in any way not a dream. Nisashi would fail to sense Bobu's presence as he saw an explosion which encompassed the very horizon itself go off in the distance, as if signalling to himself that his technique had succeeded, but to what extent? Time will tell. Meanwhile, Bobu himself was at the very epicentre of the technique. As it detonated, the copious amounts of chakra lured his very own Kidaichu Emperor from the recesses of his Insect Storage Seal, as if beckoning it to devour the chakra that had been unleashed. Moving towards the symbol that was the Area Draining Seal, it joined the rest of its brethren in this grand feast, beginning to devour the chakra at speeds reminiscent of the reproduction speed of regular Kidaichu, growing to sizes which would dwarf the Kikaichu King, and the rest of its Kidaichu kin. In the real world, it would seem that a pseudo black hole formed at the very epicentre of the technique where Bobu was, draining the chakra at massive rates. Bobu himself stood within, his exoskeleton being slowly ripped apart as it was still covered in the green flames from earlier, as his passive absorption ability took effect full force, eating the chakra as if it were from a full course buffet. From the distance, the massive explosion, so huge that it converted a mountain-sized radius of water into steam in an instant, could be seen expanding in size despite Bobu's absorption - a testament to its sheer degree of power. Dying off, Bobu, coated with the green flames which helped to an extent in defending Bobu, was analyzing the very construct of the flames itself, attempting to understand its composition. If one took a closer look, they realized that Bobu no longer looked like his previous exoskeleton covered form, but rather looked much more terrifying, as his muscles, defined as if artificially created to be perfect, was revealed in its full glory. Coated in green flames and having survived the attack, Bobu's new look revealed itself to be the stuff of nightmares - for in what world could anyone survive such a barrage unscathed? "My power is rising! I AM INVINCIBLE!" Bobu roared, his body emanating energy in all directions, coming off from his body in the form of colourful light, revealing to everyone the extent of his growth in power. From the surface of his body, the translucent green flames gave the impression of a ghost-like figure, which would later influence Nisashi to think that Bobu was really the product of his imagination, one that pushed his very limits. To accompany this growth, Bobu's explosion of energy created an aurora in the very skies above the explosion, signalling to Nisashi that the fight was not over, but had only just begun.
