"Captain, is it that move?"
"That's right. Originally, I forbade you from using it because it's unsightly, but today I'll make an exception and permit you to use that method once!"
"Hehehe, Captain, I knew it. Even though you despise this method of mine in your heart, when the critical moment truly arrives, you still need me, don't you? Look, hasn't the time come now? Rest assured, once I unleash it, never mind Terumi Mei—even the legendary Amaterasu Omikami would be laid low by me!"
In the silence, Kisame had already finished a conversation with the sleazy, dwarfish Ichiro Watanabe. The content was easy to misunderstand no matter how one looked at it. What on earth did this Watanabe mean by "when the critical moment truly arrives, you still need me"? However, in the heat of battle, no one had the time to dwell on such things.
Standing behind Kisame, the short and sleazy Ichiro Watanabe used Kisame's massive frame to quietly hide his movements, pulling a bamboo tube-like object from his jacket pocket. The next second, Watanabe's already sleazy face broke into a silent, lecherous grin directed at Terumi Mei. He placed the bamboo tube in his mouth, aimed it stealthily at her, and blew with all his might.
"Pfft."
After a sound that was nearly impossible to hear, a transparent droplet of water was blown from the tube, flying rapidly toward Terumi Mei.
"Plop."
The droplet landed with uncanny precision on the exposed skin above Terumi Mei's chest, melting instantly and seeping into her body. Ichiro Watanabe was truly the sleaziest of the sleazy, the ancestor of all things base! Not only was the man himself vile, but even the water droplet he blew was indecent. Of all the places it could have landed, it had to hit Terumi Mei's... chest. How shameless!
"Hm?"
Although Ichiro Watanabe's actions were extremely covert, as an elite Jonin possessing two types of Kekkei Genkai, Terumi Mei felt a secret sense of unease. When the droplet touched her chest, she felt a sudden chill, as if something terrible were about to happen. However, Terumi Mei could not foresee the future; despite the unease, she relied on her Kekkei Genkai and did not pay it much mind.
"Watanabe, are you done?"
"Hehehe, Captain, you can trust me when I do things. I've used my unique secret technique—the super secret medicine 'Three-Step Maiden Fall.' Don't worry, as long as Terumi Mei doesn't move, she's fine, but once she starts moving, I can guarantee she won't make it past three steps. No matter what Kekkei Genkai she possesses or how heaven-defying her strength is, she will collapse instantly! By then, hehe, regardless of whether she's the Fifth Mizukage Successor or a chaste, iron-willed woman, under my 'Three-Step Maiden Fall,' she'll be reduced to a little slut! Hmph, this black-market medicine costs a hundred thousand ryo per dose. It's a bit expensive, but the quality is perfect. Even I only carry this one dose for emergencies. Being willing to use it on her now is something to be proud of. Rest easy, Captain, just stand here and enjoy the show!"
Just as Watanabe finished speaking, Terumi Mei, driven by her lingering unease, quietly moved her body toward the scorching monster she had summoned. One step. Unknowingly, Terumi Mei suddenly felt a surge of agitation in her heart, and her body felt as if it were trapped in a furnace, unbearably hot. Two steps. It was even harder to endure than before; Terumi Mei felt as if ants were crawling all over her, a tingling, itchy sensation, and her brows furrowed slightly. Three steps. The moment she took her third step, she felt her body go limp, drained of all strength. A wave of heat surged from her most intimate places, a faint flush appeared on her cheeks, her eyes wandered hazily, and she fell into a strange state.
At this moment, the monster Terumi Mei had summoned slowly dissipated as she collapsed to the ground. To put it bluntly, Terumi Mei now had no power to fight back; she was like meat on a chopping block, left to be slaughtered!
Seeing Terumi Mei collapse after three steps, Ichiro Watanabe laughed excitedly: "Captain, look! Terumi Mei started moving. One step, two steps, three steps—haha, she's finished! Now, Terumi Mei is ours to do with as we please!"
