Chapter 481: Extermination Scale
"Now then it's time I complete my task."
Kakuzu cracks his neck and shoulders and turns to Sasuke.
"I don't like being controlled by others, especially if there is no money in it. But I will do Akatsuki a favor this time since I was a former member of it."
HAAH
Kakuzu claps his hands.
"Also, I wanted to try this jutsu out. It would be impossible for me to try it out when I was still alive since the sheer force of chakra in this jutsu will explode every cell in my body. However, as I am already dead now, it doesn't matter anymore."
SHOOM
A large amount of chakra gathers in front of various masks around Kakuzu's face. The sheer density of the chakra distorts the surrounding space. It creates a chaotic surge of chakra that runs rampant.
Back at the Akatsuki headquarter,
"Huh?!"
Kabuto turns his attention to one of the shogi pieces on the ground.
"What's going on?"
The white shogi piece turns black. Kabuto picks up the Shogi piece.
"That's Kakuzu's piece. What's he doing? Why do I have lost control over him? Hmm"
Kabuto makes a series of hand signs and picks up another Shogi piece representing Hidan. He controls Hidan's body and shares his senses with Hidan to observe the battlefield.
On the battlefield, the pupil in Hidan's eye suddenly turns white before returning to normal. Kabuto observes the battle between Sasuke and Kakuzu.
"That's that's Sasuke Uchiha. One of the prodigies of the Uchiha clan and a student of the Izuna Uchiha. Hmm"
He notices the slightly different Mangekyo pattern in Sasuke's eyes.
"His Mangekyo Sharingan looks different from usual. Is it the legendary Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan?"
Kabuto observes Sasuke with curiosity.
Sasuke sense the danger from Kakuzu's jutsu.
'I can't avoid this attack.' He grimaces.
Sasuke claps his hands and transforms his Susanoo to its next form.
"Since that's the case, then I might as well as go out"
An exoskeleton armor covers his humanoid Susanoo. It transforms into Complete Body Susanoo with a tengu head and a pair of wings on its back. Heavy purple armor covers Sasuke's Susanoo.
Kakuzu also completes his preparation as four compressed chakra orbs of water, fire, earth, and wind appear in front of the various masks.
Rumble rumble
The ground around Kakuzu trembles as he attempts to fuse the four chakra orbs into one.
"Now then"
Kabuto clasps his hand, and a shell of Zetsu's hollow body envelops Yamato.
Shoom
A new brand of curse marks appears on Yamato's body as Kabuto controls his movement.
"Hmm the performance of this improved Heaven Earth Seal is not too shabby. According to Lord Orochimaru's records, the Heaven and Earth Seals are incomplete. Only the perfect combination of both heaven and earth seals can be considered complete. I did manage to fuse both seals, but the merge rate is very low at five percent fusion."
Kabuto sighs and makes a few more hand signs to complete the seal.
"Even though it's not complete, this should be enough to overwrite his will for a few days. And the drug will further suppress his free will."
Kabuto waves his hand and dispatches the Zetsu Yamato on the battlefield.
Back on the battlefield,
Inside the Allied Shinobi forces headquarter,
RUMBLE RUMBLE
Multiple ripples spread across the sensing water sphere of the Intelligence and Sensor department.
"What what's going on?"
The intense fluctuation of the water sphere shocks the shinobis in the headquarter.
"Lord Inoichi?! This"
"There is a powerful flow of turbulent chakra on the battlefield. Someone used an extremely powerful, forbidden jutsu. The magnitude of this jutsu is 5.5 on the 'Extermination Scale'."
"A magnitude of 5.5 on the 'Extermination scale'." Everyone in headquarters gulps their saliva in fear.
It has been a few hours since the war began and yet such a powerful, forbidden jutsu already made its presence.
'Extermination Scale' is a destruction magnitude scale coined by Minato after observing Izuna's powerful mass destruction jutsus.
According to this scale, most A-rank jutsu and below end at around 3 in destruction. S-Rank jutsu ranks around 3.5 or 4. Only the most powerful S-Rank jutsu reaches a scale of 4.5.
Above the S-rank jutsus are forbidden jutsus with tactical or strategic values. Each of these jutsus are capable of mass destruction and can easily wipe out a hidden village with all of its citizens.
To give a precise value, Naruto's normal Rasenshuriken value, and Onoki's Dust release are set at a value of 4.5, the lowest value for a forbidden jutsu. A fully charged tailed beast bomb, Pain's full power Shinra Tensei, Naruto's tailed beast rasenshuriken, and fury the most powerful, forbidden jutsu of En no Gyja are set at a value of 5 on the Extermination Scale. These jutsus are capable of annihilating an entire village with almost no survivors.
Most jutsu above this rank are inaccessible to an individual and are a part of tactical or strategic weapons. Almost all of them are cooperation ninjutsu that requires a huge amount of preparation and thus requires time to deploy on the battlefield. The maximum destruction these jutsu can achieve is a magnitude of 5.9 on the 'Extermination Scale.' And this power is enough to wipe out a small nation or one of the five great villages with their subsidiary villages.
However, there are still a few powerful jutsu possessed by some individuals that are not accounted for on this list, or rather Minato didn't choose to add them.
One such example is the Chibaku Tensei of Pain with a rating of 5.5 and Mugen Tens Shin: Chibaku Tensei with a value of 5.9. The ultimate weapon of the flying fortress of the Land of Sky also had a rating of 5.9, though they never got an opportunity to use it.
According to all these standards, the maximum value the shinobis of the Five Great Nations could ever achieve was 5.9. However, this list didn't include one individual.
