The Demigod of the Shinobi World's Trump Card

Hanma's slash, carrying terrifying force, savagely swept toward Hanzo's neck. Ignoring the Kusarigama cutting toward himself, he exerted force without hesitation and brought the blade down hard!

Hanzo's expression changed. Having weathered countless battles, he had already sensed something unusual from the gusts stirred up by that slash.

What ferocious strength. Was this bastard holding back all along?

With a nimble shift of force beneath his feet, he flipped away and widened the distance between them, studying Hanma with a wary expression.

Hanma toyed with the Blood Blade in his hand, smiling at Hanzo in the distance as he spoke mockingly.

"I heard that Mr. Hanzo believes in Bushido. In a situation like this, shouldn't you face your enemy with conviction and trade a slash?"

Hanzo's face darkened as he cursed wildly in his heart.

If I let you slash me once, what fucking Bushido would be left? I'd be turned into pieces!

Hanma closed in again, unleashing his strength without restraint. The Blood Blade no longer followed any set form as it hacked and slashed with abandon.

Hanzo used the Body Flicker Technique repeatedly, leaving behind one afterimage after another. Behind him, countless crimson slashing waves plowed through the earth, leaving the battlefield riddled with deep gashes.

It had to be said that Hanzo's Body Flicker Technique was truly unmatched in the Shinobi World.

The Body Flicker Technique was not some extraordinary ninjutsu. It merely used muscle strength, along with the concentration and burst of Chakra beneath one's feet, to gain explosive speed.

But after using Body Flicker once or twice, ordinary shinobi could barely maintain their sense of direction, much less accurately attack an enemy afterward.

Hanzo's talent for the Body Flicker Technique was utterly outstanding. With his developed motor nerves and exceptional strength, he could use it continuously while retaining the precision and power for his next strike.

The battle fell into a stalemate. Hanzo could not hurt Hanma, while Hanma found it difficult to hit Hanzo. In their current states, neither could do anything to the other.

If this meaningless probing continues, Konoha's reinforcements might arrive!

A trace of killing intent appeared in Hanzo's eyes. Without bringing out something from his bottom drawer, it would be difficult to settle this today.

For the sake of his Iga, he could not let this end here!

He leaped into the air, landing atop Ibuse's head. Forming hand seals, he began gathering Chakra.

Hanzo cast Hanma a provocative glance, as though waiting for him to attack.

An empty fort strategy? Or is he charging up some technique? Hanzo barely had any descriptions in the original work, and I don't know much about him either.

Hanma narrowed his eyes as he watched him. This stance meant he was probably about to reveal some trump card.

Should I interrupt him? Forget it. With his Body Flicker Technique, it would still be hard to kill him directly. Tsunade will likely face Hanzo in the coming war, so I'll gather some information for her.

Ibuse opened its mouth once more and spewed poison gas. Guided by the technique, enormous amounts of dark-purple poisonous clouds poured down from the sky, coiling around Hanzo. The drizzling mist gradually condensed into a purple poisonous dragon.

Hanzo took a deep breath and opened his mouth wide, swallowing the purple poisonous dragon whole. With a low roar, mist-like poison gas rose from all over his body, his black pupils turning an eerie violet as his entire body swelled by a full size.

Water Release Chakra Mode: Mixed Poison Form!

With a savage grin, Hanzo said arrogantly, "Brat, remember this. Giving a powerful enemy a chance to catch their breath is the same as digging your own grave."

He moved toward Hanma of his own accord, swinging the enormous Kusarigama once again.

Bang!

This clash of strength still ended with Hanzo being sent flying backward.

Where did this bastard get such monstrous strength?! Something is wrong. There must be some trick to it!

In the current Shinobi World, only Kumogakure's Third Raikage can surpass This Old Man's strength in this form!

Hanzo felt the immense force transmitted through the Kusarigama in shock. His thoughts raced as he charged at Hanma again.

He no longer chose to clash with brute force. The buffs granted by Water Release Chakra Mode were balanced, modestly improving his durability, speed, and strength across the board.

The two tangled together, exchanging over a hundred blows in the blink of an eye.

Although Hanma had not fallen into a disadvantage, Hanzo's speed was beginning to make him feel strained.

Sensing his advantage in speed, Hanzo sneered and unleashed great quantities of pure poison mist. The poison in the air seemed to have liquefied!

The Kusarigama, carrying surging venom, came at him again like a shadow.

"As long as I stall for time, the poison will grow more potent. Just wait for death, Konoha's Blood Wolf."

Hanzo whispered sinisterly.

Hanma felt numbness spreading through his body, while the sluggishness between his muscles became increasingly apparent.

His body was exceptionally powerful. If he had been an ordinary taijutsu shinobi who used Chakra to enhance his strength and speed, the poison gas would have already knocked him flat.

No wonder Tsunade and the other two can't beat Hanzo right now. He really is a troublesome opponent.

Hanma took several large steps back as surging Lightning-nature Chakra erupted from his body, violently striking the air and forming a massive sphere of lightning.

The fusion of Blood Qi Armor and Lightning Shield Chakra was also a new technique born from the evolution of Predator Domain. Hanma could not enter that state directly so quickly yet.

The lightning sphere expanded further, dark-red Blood Qi staining the electric radiance. Blood-red lightning appeared on the battlefield once more!

Hanzo was genuinely wary now. Looking at the terrifying level of Chakra in the distance, he was secretly alarmed.

Such mastery of Lightning Release Chakra Mode... How could Konoha possess such a technique?

Those Kumogakure idiots! An outsider understands their inherited ninjutsu better than they do!

He secretly scattered a large number of Explosive Tags around the area, arranging them into a defensive formation. This enemy had the potential to kill him, so he had to go all out!

Boom!

The roaring lightning stabilized. Ferocious electric radiance combined with Blood Qi and solidified into a suit of blood-red Lightning Armor that tightly enveloped Hanma.

At that moment, Hanma's height had surged past two meters, making him look like a miniature Susanoo.

"Well, this is the second time I've used this combined technique. Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Hanzo."

His incomparably fierce speed swept across the earth, and the air let out a mournful cry under the unbearable strain. It was merely a simple punch, yet it carried the most primal and extreme violence, seeking to kill Hanzo on the spot!

Bang!!!

The punch struck, shattering the entire ground into fragments and leaving behind a bottomless crater. Hanma swept his gaze around, searching for Hanzo's figure.

This Blood Wolf of Konoha actually possesses such strength. Why would a bastard like this be willing to serve in the Anbu?!

Hanzo hid in the shadows, suppressing the blue-purple hue of his face. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. At that moment, he developed a tremendous misunderstanding about Konoha's Anbu!

Hanzo's poison sac was inside his body. The official Hokage setting stated that he could not withstand his poison sac rupturing inside him either, so as long as it did not rupture, simply inhaling poison gas should not affect him.

There was simply too little description of him in the original work. Considering his strength, I gave him a few techniques. They're all fan-made, haha.
