Facing Tsunade's Super Strength that was about to land, Kisame Hoshigaki used his shark-like agility to skillfully sidestep and dodge the blow.

The idiot Hokage, and the Legendary Sannin?

Kisame Hoshigaki sneered inwardly, dodging the punch while brandishing his Samehada.

Just as Samehada was about to touch Tsunade, a powerful shockwave erupted from Tsunade's body.

"Boom----"

Kisame Hoshigaki's face contorted instantly, as if he had been struck by a heavy object, and he flew backward several meters.

He crashed into the wall and scraped a deep ravine in the ground before finally coming to a stop.

"Cough."

Kisame Hoshigaki, barely managing to steady himself, had a slight change in expression.

He wiped the blood from the cuts on his face.

"I clearly dodged it, could it be a shockwave generated by the force of the punch compressing the air?"

He glanced deeply at Tsunade.

"It seems you're not the kind of person who underestimates themselves or likes to show off."

Tsunade flashed with a fierce light. "Don't underestimate me, I am the Fifth Hokage of Konoha!"

As she raised her fist, the ground beneath her feet collapsed with a loud rumbling sound, and a crater about half a meter in size appeared!

"This destructive power!!"

"Granny Tsunade seems even stronger than before!"

Naruto Uzumaki was also amazed.

He had previously dismissed Granny Tsunade, but now it seems Tsunade truly possesses real strength.

Kisame Hoshigaki's pupils trembled slightly.

Such destructive power combined with extremely high speed...

If we were in the water, I could use my greater speed to dodge her Super Strength while simultaneously absorbing her Chakra.

But now...

He looked around at the Konoha Village Entrance, which was under reconstruction.

Where here can he find a water source?

"Heh--"

"Bang--"

With a furious roar from Tsunade, the ground cracked once more.

She showed no intention of stopping, and didn't want to give Kisame Hoshigaki any more time to think.

Kisame Hoshigaki was immediately shocked.

From his perspective, the Chakra Tsunade had just used up with her powerful punch, amplified by her Super Strength, had now been fully replenished.

In other words, this attack was still the opponent's most powerful and all-out strike!

He couldn't understand it at all. Even if Chakra recovered quickly, the physical strength and various burdens on the body would still cause the second move to be slightly weaker than the first.

But the other party showed no signs of weakening at all; in fact, they felt even stronger.

Suddenly, he remembered the brief Chakra energy that Tsunade had emitted earlier, along with the black markings on her forehead.

"What she used before wasn't a power-enhancing Ninjutsu, but a rapid recovery Ninjutsu!"

Realizing this, Kisame Hoshigaki no longer intended to wear down his opponent.

If he cannot use the opponent's Chakra to replenish his own lost Chakra, then in the end, even if he is called the Tailed Beast without a Tail, he will not be able to withstand such Chakra consumption.

If I can keep him here, I can bring Jiraiya back.

As Tsunade soared into the air, the image of Jiraiya flashed through her mind.

The moment Jiraiya left, she had a bad feeling.

She often had the thought that Jiraiya would never return.

However, the appearance of Kisame Hoshigaki in front of her made her want to keep him.

Since they are all members of that Mysterious Organization, and they can extract information from Kisame Hoshigaki's mouth, there is no need for Jiraiya to go through the trouble of venturing to Amegakure to obtain information.

"Ha!"

In an instant, Tsunade, who was close to Kisame Hoshigaki's face, swung her fist down again.

Having already suffered the consequences of his first punch, Kisame Hoshigaki naturally understood that he had to dodge it.

However, his physical speed was clearly not comparable to Tsunade's.

Although his speed was comparable to Tsunade's, the Air Cannon -like attack range generated by Tsunade's swings clearly gave her the advantage.

Left with no other choice, Kisame Hoshigaki raised his Samehada horizontally.

"Bang!!"

Without the slightest hesitation, he slammed his fist into the Samehada.

The Samehada, which was already soft, was smashed into a foldable screen by a single punch!

Even so, the power of Tsunade's punch was not completely neutralized.

"Bang--Crack--"

Tsunade's fist, along with the Samehada, slammed into Kisame Hoshigaki's chest.

"Puff--"

That's... truly astonishing Super Strength.

Kisame Hoshigaki coughed up a mouthful of blood, his body unable to withstand the force of Tsunade's attack, and he knelt down.

Seeing Kisame Hoshigaki cough up blood, Tsunade immediately withdrew her fist.

At the same time, he added a kick to Kisame Hoshigaki.

"Bang--"

Kisame Hoshigaki, sent flying backward, slammed hard into the wall that had just been repaired.

The wall collapsed instantly.

Bass!

Tsunade approached Kisame Hoshigaki again, circling him several times and sending the surrounding rocks flying before grabbing him.

With the blessing of the Strength of a Hundred Seal and the Sage Art Creation Rebirth, Tsunade is always at full strength.

The Sage Art Creation Rebirth is a passive healing technique. Even a minor injury to Tsunade will immediately trigger a surge of Chakra to repair it. This means that muscle soreness and cell rupture will both require the use of Chakra for repair.

This is why she must use this move in conjunction with the Strength of a Hundred Seal.

If it were an ordinary person who hadn't mastered the Strength of a Hundred Seal, their Chakra would be depleted quickly before the fight even started because their cells were dividing wildly and their Chakra was constantly being repaired.

"Little Eyes, tell me about your organization."

"Cough cough," Kisame Hoshigaki coughed up a large amount of blood as soon as he opened his mouth.

He smirked, "You want intelligence? Don't even dream about it."

Water Release

Kisame Hoshigaki raised his trembling hands, preparing to Hand Seals.

Tsunade frowned slightly.

How could someone with that speed possibly complete the Hand Seals right under her nose?

It was obvious that the other person wanted her to kill him.

But we haven't gotten any information from him yet, so killing him is out of the question.

Tsunade placed one hand on Kisame Hoshigaki's shoulder and applied slight pressure.

"Click--"

A sound of a joint dislocating was heard.

As a medical Ninja, Tsunade is very familiar with the vulnerable parts of the human body's joints and how to easily dislocate an opponent's joints.

"Crack!" Soon, another sound of dislocation rang out.

Kisame Hoshigaki trembled slightly, and his hands fell limply to his sides.

Do you think that by risking the Hokage's name, I'm just a Brawler?

Tsunade coldly stared at the weakened Kisame.

Just then, Samehada sensed the Chakra on Tsunade, and greedily wriggled its body, climbing towards Tsunade.

"Bang!"

Before he even touched Tsunade, he was blasted away by her punch.

"This Ninja Blade is quite interesting, Kakashi, it's yours."
