Kakuzu left calmly, while Hanzo stared solemnly at the man before him, who neither spoke nor made any unnecessary movements.
"I have roamed the ninja world for over twenty years, yet I have never encountered an enemy like you. It seems this old man is poorly informed after all!"
"Heh."
Mingye chuckled in response. Multiple Shadow Clones appeared beside him once more. Hanzo frowned. The enemy's attack had changed again; it seemed to be based on...
Hanzo's thoughts could not keep pace with Mingye's speed at all. The shadow clones ignored the poisonous gas and charged straight at Hanzo. Though Ibuse's mouth had been injured by the blast, it was not enough to force him from the battlefield. Facing hundreds of enemy clones, Ibuse swept his tail through them.
Boom... Boom... Boom... Boom...
A chain of explosions blew Ibuse to pieces. Hanzo had now understood his opponent's methods. Since the enemy had seen through his Body Flicker Technique, his greatest advantage had vanished. Ibuse had also been one of his strongest offensive weapons, yet his opponent had countered every one of them. In a sense, he had already lost in terms of skill.
"Goodbye!"
Kakuzu only needed two minutes to leave. Once Mingye could no longer sense Kakuzu's chakra, he no longer had any desire to continue clashing with Hanzo.
"You should stay!"
So what if the opponent had seen through his most powerful techniques? Hanzo still believed that he could never lose to him. How could Mingye leave without his permission? The Body Flicker Technique's high-speed movement was not much slower than Mingye's. Hanzo blocked his path and swung his sickle. Mingye tapped the sickle with the toe of his leather boot, borrowed its force, and vanished again.
Hanzo followed closely behind and sprayed acidic venom from his mouth.
