This Is a Humanoid Tailed Beast, Okay

Before Qinglong had fallen from the air, Shizune was already nervously gripping Tsunade's arm.

"What do we do, Lord Tsunade? Qinglong doesn't know Ninjutsu! He can't get leverage in the air and will definitely fall into Hanzo's Explosive Flame Formation again!"

As expected, Qinglong, unable to get leverage in the air, landed steadily right in the center of the Explosive Flame Formation. Countless Explosive Tags swarmed towards him like leeches.

"Brat! Give up! If you do, I might just spare your life!"

Hanzo, standing on his Salamander, shouted triumphantly as he formed hand seals. Once he activated it, the large area of Explosive Tags beneath Qinglong would instantly detonate.

"Heh! Hanzo, you think your Explosive Tags can hurt me?"

Qinglong stood within the Explosive Flame Formation, letting the Explosive Tags crawl onto his legs without any resistance. Although he appeared quite disheveled, he showed no fear!

"Qinglong, what is he doing?"

Even Tsunade watched nervously, completely bewildered. Her disciple was actually letting the Explosive Tags stick to him.

"Hmm?"

Hanzo was enraged. This brat was actually looking down on his Explosive Flame Formation! A killing intent surged within him!

"Bring it on, Hanzo! Let me see the true power of your Explosive Flame Formation!"

Qinglong stood within the Explosive Flame Formation. Despite standing in an incredibly dangerous spot, lower than Hanzo, it was as if he were looking down from a height, his gaze sweeping over everything!

"Explode!"

Hanzo could no longer hold back and decisively activated the Explosive Flame Formation. The Explosive Tags covering the ground instantly ignited and exploded. The young man in the center of the explosion remained unfazed, allowing the Explosive Tags to detonate on him, sending flames soaring into the sky!

Tsunade and Shizune were stunned. Why wasn't Qinglong resisting? Was he just letting the Explosive Tags explode on him?

Even the surrounding ninjas were shocked into a daze! Had this kid been scared silly? Why wasn't he fighting back? Was he trying to tank the Explosive Flame Formation?

"Summoning Jutsu!"

Tsunade slammed her palm onto the ground, and a giant Slug appeared. She was ready to go save him.

Even that giant Slug was confused. As soon as it was summoned, it saw a young man standing dumbfounded on the Explosive Flame Formation, letting the Explosive Tags bomb him!

"What's going on? That young man..."

A gentle voice asked Tsunade.

"Hmm, that young man is my disciple."

"Boom! Boom boom!"

The Explosive Flame Formation roared with explosions!

Intense flames shot up into the sky, the rumbling deafening, as if the earth were being overturned. The young man at the center of the explosion was already engulfed by the fiery blast!

The scorching heat, the orange-red flames surged high into the sky, even drying up the rain. The searing shockwave rushed out in all directions. Even from the periphery of the battlefield, the intensity and heat from the explosion's center could be felt.

"Is he dead!"

Hanzo, standing on his Salamander, stared intently at the center of the explosion. He believed that with such an intense explosion, the person at the center could not possibly be alive. He himself wouldn't survive if he were at the center.

Even the ninjas watching from the surroundings believed the young man in the arena could not have survived!

Only Tsunade and Shizune watched the center of the explosion nervously, hoping for a miracle. This disciple was too amazing; they hoped he would be alright.

As the heatwave dissipated, the rain began to fall again. The rustling raindrops landed on the scorching ground, creating another wave of mist that obscured the scene.

The heatwave from the explosion stirred the air, creating a breeze. The gentle wind slowly blew away the mist.

It revealed the young man at the center of the explosion. This time, the young man looked even more disheveled. The spot where he stood had become a deep pit, the earth scorched black and overturned.

But the young man still stood tall, his clear eyes shining even brighter!

"Impossible!"

Hanzo stared at Qinglong in the arena in shock. Why was he unharmed after such an intense explosion?

The surrounding ninjas who were watching were also completely stunned!

"How did he withstand such an intense explosion!?"

"How is this possible!?"

The ninjas of Amegakure couldn't believe their eyes, even doubting what they were seeing.

Seeing Qinglong standing tall in the arena, Tsunade's tense expression finally relaxed. The corners of her mouth curved upwards slightly. As expected, this disciple always managed to surprise her.

Qinglong, standing in the arena, had survived the explosion. His heart surged with excitement. He had indeed managed to withstand the power of the explosion!

When Hanzo was young, he had used the Explosive Flame Formation, and the Explosive Tags had crawled onto Tsunade's thigh. Although Jiraiya's Hell Seal had protected her, she was still injured.

In his old age, Hanzo used the Explosive Flame Formation against Nagato, and it injured one of his legs.

Therefore, during the first wave of the Explosive Flame Formation's explosion, Qinglong had jumped to avoid the center of the blast. Feeling the explosion's power from the periphery, he had become confident that he could withstand this wave of explosion.

He had done it! He had withstood it!

At this moment, a hint of panic appeared in Hanzo's heart!

He tried his best to control it, but he couldn't suppress this flicker of panic, which even turned into a trace of fear.

While everyone was still staring in shock, Qinglong in the arena began to take off his clothes.

The surrounding ninjas were once again bewildered by Qinglong's mysterious actions, but Tsunade smiled. This familiar gesture meant her disciple was finally getting serious!

Qinglong took off his upper garment and casually threw it on the ground. As the clothes fell, they landed like a massive boulder weighing thousands of pounds, crashing to the ground and causing the earth to tremble.
