After saying this, Hitani stepped on the ground, teleported to the Raikage's side with a Body Flicker Technique, and slashed at the Raikage's neck mercilessly.
"Little brat! How dare you look down on me! I am the Raikage!" The Raikage roared, and a shroud of lightning-like armor enveloped his body. He then smashed his lightning-wrapped fist toward Hitani's Zanpakutō.
Just as the Raikage's fist was about to connect, Hitani murmured: "All things in the universe are reduced to ashes, Ryūjin Jakka, release!"
Boom!!
The Zanpakutō, previously unremarkable, erupted in flames, transforming into a blazing fire blade that radiated scorching heat, stinging the eyes of anyone nearby.
The moment the Zanpakutō was released, the Raikage sensed the danger, immediately retracted his fist, and stepped back.
But as the Raikage retreated, Hitani gave him no quarter, pursuing him and swinging the fiery blade at his neck once more.
The relentless aggression infuriated the Raikage, who roared: "Don't push me too far! I'm not afraid of you!" Gritting his teeth, he slammed his fist into the burning Zanpakutō. With a whoosh, the blade sliced through his right arm at the wrist. The severed hand flew off, incinerated into ash mid-air by the flames.
"Ha!" The Raikage showed no reaction to losing his hand, as if it didn't belong to him. He pressed forward, aiming a kick at Hitani's abdomen.
Hitani twisted his body, effortlessly dodging the kick. Then, with his left hand not holding the blade, he formed a pistol gesture, aimed at the Raikage's right shoulder, and whispered: "Thirty-three of the Broken Path, Red Fire Cannon." With a whoosh, a yellow beam of energy shot from his index finger, piercing the Raikage's shoulder like a thunderbolt, leaving a gaping, bloody hole.
"Hiss…" The Raikage clutched the wound on his right shoulder and staggered back a few steps, his face contorted in pain.
Yet Hitani's assault didn't relent. He swooped low to the ground, slashing at the Raikage's shoulder with his right hand while forming a kido gesture with his left, saying: "First of the Binding Path, Restraint." An invisible force instantly bound the Raikage's legs, immobilizing him temporarily.
Seeing the Zanpakutō growing larger in his vision, the Raikage's face filled with terror. He gritted his teeth and muttered, "Oh… Oh no!…"
With a whoosh, Hitani's Zanpakutō severed the Raikage's entire right arm. Before the detached limb hit the ground, it was consumed by the flames, melting into ashes.
"Ah!!" Losing an arm, the Raikage dropped to one knee, sweat pouring down his forehead as he groaned in pain: "Damn you, little brat! How dare you cut off my arm!"

"Lord Raikage!" The Kumogakure Anbu stepped forward in unison, ready to assist.
"Don't come over here!" The Raikage raised his remaining left hand in a halting gesture, his pupils red with fury. "I, the dignified Raikage, don't need your help to deal with a little kid! Whoever dares to interfere, I'll kill them first!"
Seeing this, the Kumogakure Anbu exchanged glances, hesitated, and reluctantly stepped back.
The Raikage stood again, tearing a strip of cloth from his clothing to bind his wound and stop the bleeding. He glared at Hitani and said: "Kid, I'll admit you're good, but you haven't beaten me yet! I won't go down that easily!"
Hitani regarded him calmly and said: "The next blow will take your life."
"How dare you underestimate me!" The Raikage's eyes filled with bloodshot rage. With a roar, he stomped a crater into the ground and charged at Hitani like a human cannonball.
Facing the oncoming Raikage, Hitani didn't dodge. He calmly positioned his Zanpakutō across his chest and whispered: "Jōkaku Enjō." Boom!!!
The ground beneath Hitani's feet erupted as if a volcano had awakened. A massive pillar of fire, fifty meters wide and over a thousand meters tall, surged upward.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Simultaneously, more than a dozen identical fire pillars sprang up around him, each fifty meters in diameter, towering like skyscrapers. The sky turned crimson, painted by the blazing light as if it were a sea of burning clouds. The temperature within a kilometer spiked, plunging the area into a fiery purgatory.
"Ah!!" Caught in the fire pillar, the Raikage's skin charred instantly. His eyebrows, hair, and beard burned away, leaving him resembling a blackened mummy.
"Ah… ah… ah…" The Raikage collapsed to his knees, the charred skin peeling off in chunks with every movement. Beneath the skin, no flesh or blood remained—only carbonized tissue.
"What kind of powerful ninjutsu is this?" Ao, observing from a distance, stared up at the towering fire pillars and dropped to his knees in shock, muttering, "This isn't a monster from our dimension…"
Bathed in flames yet unharmed, Hitani pointed his blazing Zanpakutō at the kneeling Raikage and said calmly: "You're in a fiery hell. You have at most three minutes before you're roasted to death. Do you have any last words while you still draw breath?"
