Mist Village.
Hiruko alone had turned the entire village upside down.
At this point, it became clear why Mist Village had grown so weak.
They lacked a top-tier expert capable of standing on their own.
Juzo Biwa and Zabuza were both elites among elites, but Hiruko's abilities countered them far too thoroughly.
Time and again, their attacks achieved nothing.
All three of their swords had been broken by Steel Release, including the Kubikiribōchō.
Though Hiruko lacked skill, Swift Release allowed him to move at high speed.
Combined with the hardening of Steel Release, he had suppressed the three of them from beginning to end.
Their blades were not as hard as his body, their skill could not keep up with his speed, and their ninjutsu would be absorbed.
With Storm Release: Storm Dragon continuously raining lightning down, the entire Mist Village was being driven back step by step.
Those below jonin level might even be struck dead by lightning.
The weaker Mist Village fighters had no choice but to retreat outward. Watching this scene, it seemed as though Hiruko alone was hunting down the entire Mist Village.
It was incredibly shocking.
After Juzo Biwa's and Zabuza's swords were broken, they continued fighting while retreating, guiding the other village ninja to withdraw.
After all, people mattered more than anything. If they could not hold him back, they naturally could not force it.
"Water Release: Water Gun Jutsu!"
Whoosh...
A water bullet condensed from water shot rapidly toward Hiruko.
But it only produced a clang against Hiruko's body.
It could not break through his defense at all.
After Suigetsu's sword had been knocked away, he kept using the Hozuki Clan's secret technique to fire at Hiruko.
But for Hiruko, who maintained Steel Release throughout, such attacks were barely worth mentioning.
"Damn it!"
