"Foolish boy, I told you we aren't alive. Even if your Acid Mist melts us outright, we can recover in no time. Stop wasting your energy!" Hashirama reminded him kindly.
Raito smiled, his eyes burning as he looked at Hashirama.
Of course he wasn't using the same move this time. Since Acid Mist didn't work, then-Snow Mist!!!
He spat another blast of icy blue vapor, and the First and Second charging toward him veered aside at the same instant, their coordination flawless.
One went left, the other right, flanking Raito from both sides once more.
They moved so fast that Raito had no time to dodge clear.
