War Breaks Out Everywhere

Terumi Mei, her face also serious, shouted directly, "That's what the Fourth Mizukage said! It was your Konoha's Assistant Hokage, Kakashi, who infiltrated Hidden Mist Village and killed the Third Mizukage. We've even found evidence. That's why Hidden Mist Village is sending troops this time to seek justice for the Third Mizukage!"

Hayakumo Sōma, his face was filled with anger. He cursed inwardly, "These guys from Hidden Mist Village are completely turning black into white. Do they think we're some kind of Hiruzen Sarutobi? Are they going to compromise with you Tenten?"

Immediately, Hayakumo Sōma spoke up again, shouting loudly, "Your so-called evidence is something your Kirigakure ninja fabricated! If you dare to invade the Land of Fire, you're declaring war on Konoha! Let me tell you, Konoha Uchiha Clan is at the edge of Konoha. Are you sure you want to provoke Konoha?"

Upon Terumi Mei sneered repeatedly, then said with a serious expression, "The Uchiha Clan you're talking about, is that the Fifth Hokage? He fabricated a lie out of thin air, boasted about being the so-called God of Hell's Asura, and scared Hiruzen Sarutobi into trembling. Then he seized power through a coup. And this is the kind of the Uchiha Clan that you Konoha Ninja admire?"

At this point, Terumi Mei couldn't help but laugh, bursting into laughter as she said, "I must say, this Uchiha Qingcheng is indeed a genius. He actually came up with such a scheme to deal with the weak Third Hokage. Our Hidden Mist Village needs talents like him too."

That's right, this is Uchiha Qingcheng's reputation in the Shinobi World. Some people call Qingcheng Hokage who performs shamanistic Hokage, while others call the Third Hokage weak and incompetent, terrified by such a scheme.

Hearing such mockery Hayakumo Sōma's face was filled with anger. He immediately retorted, "How dare you mock the Hokage! He is the strongest Hokage in Konoha! You guys from Hidden Mist Village, if you ever see the Hokage, you'd better kneel down and beg for mercy!"

Hayakumo Sōma used his Chakra to raise his voice, shouting, "The God of Hell's Asura truly exists! Only this can explain the Fifth Hokage's strength! You ignorant fools will surely incur the wrath of Konoha!"

Terumi Mei paled upon hearing this, and she thought to herself, "Have these Konoha ninjas been completely fooled by that guy? These Konoha Ninja are really dim-witted."

Terumi Mei then spoke up, "It seems you're not prepared to negotiate. Then don't blame us for avenging the Third Mizukage."

Wars between Shinobi World are always started with some random excuse. Whether it's real or fake is irrelevant. Accusations can be made arbitrarily; whoever wins is always right, and justice always belongs to the victor.

In the Hayakumo Sōma saw so many Hidden Mist Village ninjas drawing their weapons, ready to attack, and Terumi Mei already preparing hand Hand Seals to unleash Ninjutsu attack.

Hayakumo Sōma, then said with a serious expression, "It seems a great battle is inevitable. I have to leave here and let them test the power of the Explosive Tag Formation."

Upon hearing this, Hayakumo Sōma Hand Seals and shouted, "Wind Release: Vacuum Great Barrage Release!"

As soon as Hayakumo Sōma, it spat out more than a dozen wind blades, sending them towards the thick fog on the sea surface.

This A-rank Wind Release Ninjutsu is incredibly powerful. When the wind blades come into contact with the dense fog on the sea surface, they disperse the fog without diminishing their power, continuing to attack the enemies on the sea.

Terumi Mei also formed hand Hand Seals and shouted, "Lava Release: Melting Rock Technique!"

After saying that, Terumi Mei opened her mouth wide and spat out a large amount of lava towards Hayakumo Sōma on the shore. This lava shot towards Hayakumo Sōma like an exploding meteor.

Seeing the massive mass of lava Hayakumo Sōma immediately used his Body Flicker Technique to disappear towards the border, shouting, "Everyone, throw your Explosive Tag! This woman is not to be trifled with!"

Large amounts of magma, like meteorites, crashed directly to the ground, creating deafening explosions. The power was in no way inferior to S-rank Ninjutsu.

Hayakumo Sōma, sweating profusely as he ran, looked at the massive explosion and the ground stained with lava, and remarked, "Fifth Hokage, only you can handle an enemy like this. You'd better use your 'enema' (a type of anesthetic) to show him your strength."

Because the thick fog was blown away by Hayakumo Sōma's Wind Release technique, the enemies on the sea surface were directly exposed. More than three hundred border ninjas, plus more than two hundred working ninjas at the camp, had all been brought over by Hayakumo Sōma. Nearly six hundred border ninjas began throwing Explosive Tag.

In an instant, a large number of Explosive Tag, like wasps, were fired directly at the coastline by the border ninjas.

Seeing so many Explosive Tag Shuriken shooting directly at her, Terumi Mei formed hand Hand Seals and shouted, "Dissolution Release: Melting Apparition Technique!"

The vanguard of the Mist Ninja immediately formed hand Hand Seals and began releasing Water Release Ninjutsu. Most of the Mist Ninja used Water Release: Water Wall Formation, while a portion used Water Release: Water Shockwave.

On the sea, many walls of water rose up, standing upright like shields.

There were also large jets of water, like water cannons, shooting directly into the sky to block the Explosive Tag.

Terumi Mei spat out a large amount of white liquid, like a solution, which corroded the Explosive Tag Shuriken high in the sky.

In an instant, a deafening explosion erupted in the center of the battlefield. The booming sounds echoed endlessly, as loud as thunder.
