They Were Nothing but Fools with Prices on Their Heads!

In an open space in the Land of Land of Whirlpools.

"Hanzō, this is a great opportunity for our Amegakure to rise!" An Amegakure stepped forward and offered his advice.

"Now that the Land of Whirlpools has been destroyed, Konoha has lost its ally and its strength will inevitably be greatly diminished."

"Besides, the current Hokage of Konoha is just a greenhorn, not worth worrying about at all."

"Look at the Kage of other countries, they're all all show and no substance. On the other hand, you not only possess a powerful Ibuse Summoning Beast, but your mastery of Water Release is unparalleled in the Shinobi World."

"Whether in close combat or Ninjutsu, your talent surpasses that of most of the Kage of the Five Great Nations."

The Amegakure paused for a moment, then continued his impassioned speech, "If we could also obtain the Tail-Locking Seal, we could secretly subdue the other wild Tailed Beast!"

"Our Amegakure may well have a chance to become the overlord of the Shinobi World."

"In my opinion, with your strength, sir, you should at least earn the title of Rain Shadow."

He became more and more excited as he spoke.

The other Amegakure standing nearby looked on with disdain.

This sycophant, has he lost his mind?

To call yourself the overlord of the Shinobi World? What a pipe dream.

Why don't you just say that Lord Hanzō is Hashirama Senju reincarnated? Invincible under heaven?

Just wait and see. Hanzō is insightful and discerning; he will surely punish you severely for your utter nonsense.

Hanzo of the Salamander in front, looked at the ninja with some surprise, not expecting that Amegakure would have such a talent.

He had long harbored resentment towards the Five Great Nations and had been waiting for an opportunity—an opportunity for the Land of Rain to stand on equal footing with the Five Great Nations.

Of the Second of the Five Great Nations, apart from the old and feeble-minded Second Kazekage Shamon, who was simply waiting to die, the rest had long since passed away. In Hanzō's view, the current Third of the Five Great Nations were nothing more than a bunch of worthless scoundrels.

In the current Shinobi World, Hanzo of the Hanzo of the Salamander the strongest.

A, the Third Raikage A of Kumogakure, is known for his Strongest Spear and strongest elemental technique, but could he withstand the deadly poison of the Ibuse?

Ōnoki, the Third Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, may possess the Dust Release, but with his Water Body Flicker Technique, even a mere Dust Release would have to be able to hit him.

The Second Kazekage of Sunagakure, Shamon, is probably having trouble even walking. As for his disciple, Sajie, the user of the Magnet Release Kekkei Genkai, is he even a worthy opponent? He's just an ordinary person, nothing to fear.

The Third Mizukage of Kirigakure, Unnamed, that old man seems to be of the same generation as Shamon, and I heard he even participated in the first Five Kage Summit. Hmph! When it comes to Water Release, apart from the deceased Tobirama Senju, Hanzō has never been convinced by anyone.

As for the Third Hokage of Konoha, Kagami Uchiha, he's just a greenhorn. If we were to encounter him, we might just gouge out his eyes as a trophy.

Currently, the Three Great Shinobi Villages are locked in a fierce battle, a time when the two sides fight and the third side benefits.

This is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity for the Land of Rain to rise.

If we could leave all these Ninja Village kage here...

A strong stirring of emotion welled up in Hanzo of the Salamander's heart.

Seeing Hanzō's change of expression, the Amegakure immediately knelt down and said sincerely, "Lord Hanzō! With your current strength, the title of God of Shinobi may be a bit premature, but you are at least a Demigod."

"Such a golden opportunity, don't hesitate! If you don't seize it, you'll only suffer the consequences!" As he said this, he raised his head and looked at Hanzō with a moved expression.

"Give the order, Lord Hanzō! Lead us in this battle!"

The group of Amegakure behind them stared in disbelief, secretly cursing in their hearts:

"Has this kid really gone mad?"

"Will they say anything to get ahead?"

"Does he really think Hanzō will listen to him?"

Upon hearing this, Hanzo of the Salamander, muttering softly, "Demigod?"

That's a really good title; thinking about it carefully, he certainly deserves it.

However, he wanted the title to be recognized by the countries themselves, not just by his subordinates.

Looking at the Amegakure who had sincerely spoken these words, his expression brightened, and he exclaimed with pride, "I didn't expect you to have such insight. Although your strength is not great, you have great foresight."

"You've successfully caught my attention; from today onwards, you're the squad leader."

Having said that, he turned around, looked at the Amegakure before him, and said loudly, "He's right. With my strength and the power of our Amegakure, our Land of Rain should no longer be content with being confined to a corner of the world."

"Our Amegakure has the qualifications and the strength to stand at the pinnacle of the Shinobi World."

"Pass on my order: everyone immediately change direction and head towards the battleground of the three villages."

"Today, I, Hanzo of the Salamander, will not only obtain the Tail-Locking Seal, but I will also make all the other villages bow down in submission!"

"We obey your command, sir!" the Amegakure replied in unison, their expressions a mixture of envy and jealousy.

Surprisingly, this kid actually managed to persuade Lord Hanzō...

Damn, I could do that too. Anyone can brag and flatter; it's just a matter of talking.

The port of the Land of Whirlpools is the site of a fierce battle Three Great Shinobi Villages.

"Ōnoki, do you think you'll be safe just by hiding in the sky?"

"Water Release: Water Gun Technique"

Bang bang bang bang! The Third Mizukage raised his hand and made a gun-shaped gesture, his index finger shimmering with a faint watery light. Several high-pressure water bullets shot out instantly, heading straight for Ōnoki high in the sky.

"Damn it, it's that old scoundrel Gengetsu's technique." Ōnoki, suspended in mid-air, stared at the incoming water bullets with a grim expression.

Hozuki Gengetsu was the nemesis of the Second Tsuchikage Mu, Mu. Just as Tobirama Senju Uchiha, the Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki, also specifically researched a large number of Ninjutsu to counter Mu.

Faced with these densely packed, high-speed water bullets, Ōnoki could only constantly change his position and dodge in a sorry state.

The Third Raikage on the ground watched Ōnoki dodging back and forth in the air, pondering to himself.

Or maybe he should develop a similar Ninjutsu, so he can better target this shorty next time he encounters him.

Hmm... how about calling it the Super Electromagnetic Gun? Anyway, it's more powerful and has a more impressive name than the Water Gun!

The thought flashed through his mind, Third Raikage looked up at the Third Mizukage, his tone icy. "Old man, it seems you're going to have to suffer the consequences."

As he spoke, his hair stood on end, and lightning surged around him as he instantly activated Lightning Release Chakra Mode. He raised his right hand, curled two fingers, and extended the remaining three straight out. "Hell Stab, Three-Finger Nukite!"

As soon as he finished speaking, lightning flashed beneath his feet, and he transformed into a blazing bolt of lightning, hurtling straight toward the Third Mizukage.

"Hmph! Well done! Let me see the legendary Strongest Spear!"

The Third Mizukage remained completely calm, showing no sign of panic.

He immediately formed hand Hand Seals: "Water Release! Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique?!"

Suddenly, a large amount of water appeared beneath their feet, which then condensed into a blue water wall tens of meters high. With a thunderous roar, the raging torrent poured down, crashing towards the Third Raikage. Many Cloud Village and Rock Village ninjas along the way were swallowed up by the violent flood, their screams instantly drowned out by the roaring water.

Witnessing this, Ai's eyes widened in fury. He looked up at Ōnoki in the sky and roared, "You damned dwarf, were you just watching from above?"

Ignoring the dog's barking, Ōnoki swiftly flew to the front of the flood, landed on the ground, and rapidly Hand Seals, shouting in a deep voice, "Earth Release: Earth Tremor Core!"

Rumble--!

The ground in front of the torrent trembled violently, and crisscrossing cracks spread rapidly. A large area of the ground suddenly collapsed, forming a huge, bottomless crater.

The surging floodwaters were completely poured into the pit, and in an instant, the raging torrent was completely quelled, and the land gradually returned to calm.
