Hanzo replied nonchalantly, "The Konoha elder Danzo will invite the ninjas from the Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning. At the earliest, they'll arrive tonight; at the latest, tomorrow.

Rasa didn't hold his breath. Instead, he used Electromagnetic Force to create a high-temperature electric barrier in his airways, blocking and electrolyzing all the toxins.
As long as he kept the heat and Electromagnetic Force from touching his airways and internal organs, there'd be no problem. Achieving that level of precision was still quite easy for him.
The salamander's toxin was a neurotoxin. It could quickly paralyze a victim's nerves, slowing their reactions and preventing them from bringing even half their strength to bear.
