"Is that... Lava Release!?"
Mei Terumi had also noticed what was wrong with the glow emanating from the blade of Uchiha Yato's Susanoo.
The light it gave off was extremely similar in color to the Lava Release she herself had spat out.
Just as Mei Terumi marveled at Uchiha Yato's astonishing talent, she suddenly saw him appear before Hashirama Senju in an instant like a ghost. His blade rose and fell, clearly intending to deliver a vicious blow to Hashirama Senju.
But how could Hashirama Senju be struck so easily?
After all, he was an old monster who had lived through the Warring States era. The sharpness of his combat instincts was simply beyond ordinary imagination.
Just as Uchiha Yato's blade was about to pierce Hashirama Senju's body, something unexpected happened—Hashirama Senju's body seemed to have been enchanted, transforming into a wooden figure in the blink of an eye!
Witnessing this, Uchiha Yato was so astonished that his mouth hung open. He could not help exclaiming, "Is that a Wood Clone?" This really is a troublesome ninjutsu.
The reason he sighed like that was because Uchiha Yato had also done considerable research into Wood Release. He knew full well how formidable Wood Clones were.
Just as expected, the Wood Clone did not quickly disperse like an ordinary clone. Instead, it immediately gripped Uchiha Yato's blade tightly, clearly intending to trap him in place.
Faced with this sudden change, Uchiha Yato did not back down. He immediately closed in on the Wood Clone and unleashed his own specialty—Fire Release!
A blazing mass of flames erupted from his mouth and shot straight toward the Wood Clone.
However, Uchiha Yato did not stop there. During their previous fierce exchange, he had already learned that Hashirama Senju's Wood Release possessed a certain special property.
