"Boom!"
The entire sea surface seemed to explode with a loud, muffled sound, as if the seabed had been blasted open, sending a chill down one's spine.
Terrifying lightning spread everywhere, causing all the Mist Ninja standing on the sea to shudder and retreat.
Many of the Mist Ninja were unable to dodge in time were unlucky enough to be hit, and immediately let out screams of pain and terror.
"Ah!!"
This was Yagura's scream. Yuan Long looked over and saw that Yagura's skin was torn open and his whole body was covered in blood.
"Roar!"
He transformed into a Three-Tails monster, entered Tailed Beast Mode, and was about to withdraw his lightning attack, but—
"Boom boom boom!"
Several bolts of lightning struck down suddenly, hitting Yagura precisely and slamming him directly into the water.
The sea was instantly blasted open, creating a hole more than ten meters wide. Mighty waves roared outwards, carrying away countless Mist Ninja.
The lightning spread even more terrifyingly, making the surrounding Mist Ninja shudder and retreat in fear, not daring to get involved at all.
"This is like a heavenly tribulation! How can it be so terrifying!"
"Who is attacking? Is this kind of Lightning Release attack something that a human can control?"
Both sides of the ninja thought with considerable horror.
"Who is he? How did he get here? Why did he attack the Mizukage? And what changes will his arrival bring to the battle?"
Many people are speculating and feeling quite uneasy!
If it's a common enemy of both sides, that's fine, but if it's an enemy of either of them, then it's all over!
Such a terrifying enemy will inevitably bring about an unimaginable reversal in the course of the war.
"Who is it?!"
At that moment, Yagura burst out of the sea with a bang, roaring and shouting in the direction from which the sound came.
He was forced out of his Tailed Beast Transformation mode, his body covered in blood, with horrific cracks and burns, his injuries were severe!
"The one who killed you!!"
The sound was initially soft, barely audible, then grew louder, and after two seconds, it was like a thunderclap, as if it were resounding deep within people's souls, shaking everyone so much that they almost bled from their seven orifices, and their souls were about to be shattered!
A powerful yet chilling aura of Chakra descended!
Faced with this aura, everyone felt as if they were suffocating. It was too strong, suppressing even the aura of Yagura in his Tailed Beast Transformation.
A young man with a frosty face appeared before Mei Terumi, sword in hand. Dressed in gray, he resembled a peerless god of death, with black hair flowing like a waterfall, his eyes flashing like lightning, and an unimaginable, terrifying killing intent surrounding him, emanating an aura of great terror!
"Sir, why are you my enemy? I have not offended you at all!"
Yagura felt a chill run down his spine; this person gave him a very dangerous feeling, and if he could, he didn't want to be his enemy!
Why are we enemies?
To everyone's surprise, after hearing this, the young man laughed, a laugh full of mockery, Chakra erupted wildly, stirring up waves on the sea.
This scene made everyone's hearts pound; it was like a demon god, possessing power comparable to Tailed Beast.
"What's wrong, my Mizukage? It's only been half a year, and you don't recognize me anymore!"
Then, the young man looked at Yuan Long behind Yagura and suddenly revealed a cold smile, "Long time no see, Elder Yuan Long!"
"Gurgle!"
At that moment, Yuan Long couldn't help but shudder violently, feeling a chill run through his entire body.
He felt as if he were being stared at by a ferocious beast, whose gaze seemed to possess supreme power, capable of making him lose all will to resist with just one glance!
Absolutely unstoppable!
He stared at the man who had appeared before them, then suddenly, as if recognizing something, his eyes widened in horror, and he exclaimed in disbelief, "Could it be... you are... Ye Liangnai!!"
By the end, his voice had changed; it was trembling, and his lips were shaking!
"What?! Ye Liangnai!!"
"Impossible! How could he possibly be back!"
"Elder, you're not mistaken, are you? How could it be him? Does that brat have such strength?"
Immediately, some people exclaimed in disbelief, but they were all somewhat panicked.
If this really is Ye Liangnai, then this is really troublesome!
Judging from his fighting prowess just now, he was no ordinary fighter.
"Hahaha, Elder, it seems your eyesight isn't failing you after all, you still recognize me!"
Upon hearing this, the young man, Ye Liangnai, burst into laughter, his laughter shaking the entire sea. He glanced at Yagura and the others, and said, "It's time for a change in Kirigakure!"
Then, without even glancing at the crowd, he vanished from his spot and reappeared beside Mei Terumi, looking at the two who had pierced Mei Terumi in an attempt to surrender!
"Hiss!!"
Upon seeing Ye Liangnai appear before them, the two felt a chill run down their spines and immediately retreated without a second thought.
Do you think you can get away with this?
Ye Liangnai walked lightly as if taking a leisurely stroll, without showing any sign of strain on her face.
"Pfft!"
Two flashes of cold light appeared, their sharpness illuminating all directions.
Ye Liangnai stood there, sword in hand, as if she hadn't moved at all.
The next moment, blood spurted from the necks of the two men, and they collapsed in terror!
"Hiss!"
Upon seeing this scene, everyone gasped in shock.
Those were two Special Jonin, either of whom had the strength to fight a Jonin. Even Yagura couldn't kill them instantly.
But in front of Ye Liangnai, he was instantly killed without even a chance to escape!
"Sister, I'm back. It's not too late, is it?"
Ye Liangnai came to Mei Terumi and helped her up.
"Cough cough cough, it's not too late! You and I, brother and sister, will join forces and fight our way out today no matter what!"
Mei Terumi stood up and coughed twice.
Seeing Ye Liangnai's fighting prowess just now, she was confident she could break through!
"No, sister, you should focus on recovering. Leave these people to me!"
But Ye Liangnai actually stopped Mei Terumi from continuing her attack. He looked at Yagura and the others and said, "How can a mere Mizukage like you, a general, be sent out! Sister, you can rest assured and guard the rear! Watch me wipe out all the enemies!"
Upon hearing this, Yagura's eyes immediately turned cold. "Such arrogance! You've been away for half a year, and while your strength hasn't increased much, you've become quite arrogant!!"
The Grand Elder snorted coldly, saying, "Who do you think you are? You want to challenge the Mizukage? There's a limit to how much you overestimate yourself. Do you think the Mizukage is someone you can provoke?"
"Mizukage, let me test his strength. There's no need for you to trouble yourself with such a brat!"
Just as Yagura was about to rush towards Ye Liangnai, he was stopped by Suikazan Fuguki.
"Yes, go and bring back his head!"
Yagura nodded, then looked calmly at Ye Liangnai and said, "Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut? If you want to challenge me, you'll have to survive against Suikazan Fuguki first..."
"Don't get cocky just because you managed to sneak up on me a couple of times!"
Hearing this, Ye Liangnai couldn't help but chuckle, "Suikazan Fuguki, huh? Perfect, I've had my eye on your big sword for a long time!"
