Chapter 76 - 7: The power of a god

Seeing Hagoromo reappear intact, Haruto quickly retreated backwards but the landscape around him changed again he reappeared once again in front of Hagoromo in a completely barren environment with thousands of erupting volcanoes.

Hagoromo then raised his left hand as the pattern of his pupils changed.

"You cannot imagine the extraordinary power of the gods."

Great Planetary Devastation

Hundreds of asteroids more than a kilometer in diameter appeared in the sky falling towards Haruto.

"Magic of spirit : Physical interaction!"

A dark glow stopped the hundreds of asteroids in their falls, freezing them in the sky, while blood flowed from Haruto's nostrils and eyes.

Hagoromo just looked at Haruto one moment with a slight smile and the next second the ground under his feet disappeared and the whole planet was almost covered with lava pushing Haruto to fly to the sky, but the next second the whole sky was covered with clouds with millions of lightning bolts blocking his way, the air around him started to get cold, despite the lava the temperature dropped to -200° in barely 1 second.

"How He can do this, I feel no chakra in his technique, no magic, it's like he can change reality, and the only reason I'm still alive is because he doesn't want to kill me."

Thinking about it Haruto went mad, it was the first time he was despised by an opponent, he felt insulted, he who had spent years training and to devote himself to strengthening his techniques.

"How dare you despise me!"

His Aura exploded even more violent than when he fought against Obito, when he was in the ninja world he could only use 50% of his power but since he is on this planet his strength has completely recovered.

His bones, muscles, nerves and every muscle in his body became stronger hundreds of times.

He hit the void with his fist hitting Hagoromo who was hundreds of meters away from him, then he rushed towards Hagoromo exceeding almost 50 times the speed of sound, and kicked Hagoromo breaking his body in half.

Hagoromo then disappeared and reappeared intact further on, but Haruto attacked him again giving him hundreds of punches completely destroying Hagoromo's body, but Hagoromo disappeared each time and reappeared intact.

Haruto like a furious bull charged and attacked Hagoromo who disappeared each time and reappeared without injury, Haruto continued the fight like this for more than 3 hours.

But after ten hours of fighting, Hagoromo, as if tired of playing, pointed his finger at Haruto.

"Fire"

"Wind"

"Lightning"

"Earth"

Blue flames immediately surrounded Haruto, followed by a gigantic tornado, the sky darkened and lightning struck Haruto trapped in the tornado of wind and flame, then thousands of stones struck him like shells, billions of drops of water formed a giagnatesque wave about ten kilometers high exceeding any possible tsunami and falling on him.

Suddenly hundreds of roots came out of the ground and repelled Hagoromo's elemental attacks, Haruto slowly came out of one of the roots and punched into the void, the throwing punch then crossed the void and hit Hagoromo's right cheek causing him to fly backwards, but Hagoromo disappeared and reappeared intact in front of Haruto, he raised his left palm from which a powerful suction force appeared like a black hole wanting devoured everything.

"You're strong for a sleeping god but that's not enough to face me, if you surrender now I will stop."

Haruto hearing this and feeling the powerful suction force that was about to crush him clenched his teeth and fists and then a pattern resembling the pentagram he used in the sacrifice ritual appeared in his left eye.

Hagoromo, knowing that the technique Haruto was going to use would be extremely detrimental to both of them, reacted at that moment in a very intelligent way by cancelling his previous attack and without giving Haruto time, he put his palms extremely quickly against Haruto's chest.

Chibaku Tensei

Haruto wanting to dodge suddenly felt a powerful force of repulsion, he was instantly ejected towards the sky, lava, volcanic stones, rocks were brutally torn from the ground and hit him again and again until he was completely surrounded, trying to crush him harder and harder.

Soon the rocks imprisoned him in a ball of rock and magma with a diameter of 1km, concentrating all his forces on his defense he lost control of the meteorites that fell towards him.

Haruto feeling the pressure of this moment, had suddenly flooded by countless dark thoughts, the dark aura around him became stronger and stronger as he began to lose control of his body.

"Damn old man! I want you dead!"

His skin became slightly drier, his red hair lost so much of its shine while the half of it turned grey, he had aged about ten years in less than a second, if it had been anyone else it would not have been so surprising, but for Haruto someone with his vitality this situation could only be described as almost impossible.

The pentagram in his eyes then became a skull of death.

"Magic of death : The End!"

The world seemed to stop, for a second the volcanoes calmed down, the cellular organisms living in these extreme conditions froze, time and space seemed to have lost their function for a brief moment.

Then everything turned grey, the world seemed to have lost its colours and vitality, the lava lost its heat, the rocks began to turn into dust and ashes, but at the same time Hagoromo disappeared, the world seemed to perish, everything became dust, the small planet slowly turned to dust and gradually dissipated, if an astronomer had witnessed this scene, he would surely have screamed in horror.

After a few seconds the whole planet disappeared completely, Haruto was floating in space, alone as he slowly healed from his wounds, soon an old man appeared in front of him making him sigh in silent space.

Hagoromo's voice then resonated in his mind.

"You're really powerful, because of you I even lost an eye, it will heal in 100 years, but it's still a feat."

Haruto then remained silent for a slightly depressed moment.

"You change reality with the Izanagi?"

"So you know the Izanagi? Yes you're right, now I'm saying goodbye and I wish you never enter my world again."

"But I hope you'll visit me, the life of the guardian gods is pretty dull."

Then Hagoromo turned around and got ready to leave.

"Wait, can you take me somewhere, please."

Haruto murmured in a weak voice.

Hagoromo then stopped, remained silent for a moment before nodding his head.
