When Mukai them, the Rain Ninja who had kept their distance still maintained unwavering faith in Hanzo of the Salamander:
"The leader is invincible!"
Summon the leader of the Ibuse, and they will be invincible!
The Konoha Sannin back then would have been killed long ago if it weren't for the leader's mercy!
The source of these Rain Ninja's confidence was, of course, Hanzō's consistently invincible and exaggerated fighting prowess!
This fifty-something Rain Ninja proudly recounted the glorious past of their leader to the bewildered young ninja beside him:
"I have lived for over fifty years, and for over forty of those years I have been licking blood off the edge of a knife in this rain."
There are countless powerful individuals, but only Lord Hanzō truly deserves the title of " Demigod of the Ninja World "!
This is not flattery; it's a reputation earned through countless corpses and bloodshed!
The old ninja pointed to the figure standing atop the giant Ibuse in the distance and exclaimed in admiration:
"When I was a child, the Land of Rain was still a piece of meat that could be slaughtered at will. Ninjas from powerful nations burned, killed, and looted our land."
Hanzō appeared out of nowhere; he was only in his early twenties at the time.
Carrying a respirator and a bamboo tube containing Ibuse, he ventured alone into the camp of twenty elite Iwagakure.
No one knows how the battle was fought, only that the next morning, the camp was filled with the heads of Iwagakure!
The lives of countless ninjas made the leader's name famous!
Especially the giant summoned Ibuse, when paired with an adult, is simply invincible...
Before he could finish speaking, One-Tail Shukaku, over twenty meters tall, appeared and crushed Ibuse Ibuse, forcing Hanzō to separate from it.
That's Tailed Beast!
Even if it's just the One-Tail, it's still a top-tier fighting force in the Shinobi World!
The key is that Shukaku is immune to toxins!
Old Rain Ninja shuddered as he watched the Ibuse burrow underground to engage in guerrilla warfare with Shukaku.
The moment it showed its head, it was met with a barrage of blows from Shukaku, its body already torn open with wounds, and even a piece of its tail was broken off. It hurriedly tried to repair itself.
Everything is under control, don't worry!
The leader's reputation isn't solely based on his Ibuse, the Salamander!
He wiped the Utakata from his mouth and excitedly explained:
"The leader's water-based Ninjutsu is unparalleled! Did you witness the massive waterfall attack just now?"
Back then, when fighting against the Konoha, they ambushed them in the valley outside Amegakure. The leader first used Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique to disrupt the Allied Forces' formation.
This left the Konoha Allied Forces with no choice but to react in a panic...
As they were talking, Hanzo of the Salamander unleashed his Great Waterfall Technique, attacking Mukai others.
The massive flow of water truly resembled a river overflowing its Hanzō. Hanzo was a top-tier figure in the Shinobi World, both in terms of Chakra reserves and Chakra control.
It's a pity that all three of them can fly!
The impact of the Mukai beam propelled it directly into the sky, creating a zigzag pattern in the air as the Hierarch Mecha swooped down again, its right mech already unleashing its arm blade!
Old Rain Ninja pointed at Hanzo of the Salamander, who was bending over, one hand gripping the chain and the other the sickle, and raised his voice:
"Look, that's the leader's invincible hook-and-scythe Taijutsu!"
Back then, the leader fought against numerous ninjas for three days and three nights using his hook-and-scythe Taijutsu!
The rainwater in the valley turned red, and the Allied Shinobi Forces of the great nation suffered more than half their casualties, ultimately forced to flee in disarray.
After this battle, the title of " Demigod of the Ninja World " spread throughout the Five Great Nations, and no one dared to easily provoke Amegakure again...
On the battlefield, Hanzo of the Salamander's hook-and-sickle never even touched Mukai's arm blade before being repelled by an invisible barrier.
His prized sickle seemed to be separated by air!
His expression shifted; wasn't this the same technique used by that Akatsuki kid who escaped?
With his defenses wide open, he was completely unable to cope with Konan's subsequent Paper Shuriken and Sasori's agile cutting and charging flying swords.
Water Clone!
As the Hanzo of the Salamander left behind Water Clone to split itself, it was burst apart by the Mukai. While swinging its hook and sickle, it finally removed its breathing apparatus.
"You forced me to do this!"
Seeing the thick purple poisonous mist spreading from Hanzo of the Salamander's breath, Old Rain Ninja's voice became shrill:
"Look! Look! The leader's ultimate form!"
The leader who removes his breathing mask is the true demigod!
Over the years, Lord Hanzō has single-handedly held up the sky of the Land of Rain!
Hanzō Ibuse has had a venom sac implanted in his body; his breath is filled with deadly toxins!
In this form, enemies cannot even stay near the leader!
This is the legendary leader's unique poison technique!
The legendary Konoha Sannin were defeated by this very poisonous movement technique...
Amidst the loud praise, the situation between the three people in the battle suddenly changed.
" Wind Release - Great Breakthrough!"
" Ten Fingers Number - Spiraling Flying Swords!"
" The Dance of the Shikigami!"
Under the impact of Mukai's Great Breakthrough, the deep purple poisonous mist surrounding Hanzo of the Salamander was blown backward by the continuous wind pressure.
The Chakra swords that followed behind danced like ten sword masters making their moves, forcing Hanzō to use all his strength to swing his hook scythe and barely manage to parry.
He had no choice but to take the seemingly glamorous palm strike that came crashing down on his chest from Konan!
The three-hit combo has been practiced countless times, and it's now incredibly smooth and precise.
With a flap of her six wings, Konan gently pressed her palm against Hanzo of the Salamander's chest, then turned into pieces of paper and scattered, reassembling into her likeness high in the sky.
It seems that this series of attacks was all to cover up the purple-haired girl's palm strike.
But this palm strike was so light and weak, it had absolutely no offensive power!
All that painstaking effort just for this one palm strike?
Hanzō activated the Chakra within his body and was not affected by the Genjutsu.
This seemingly earth-shattering series of attacks left even Hanzo of the Salamander's spitting fire, the old Rain Ninja, dumbfounded by this magnificent combination.
Mukai shouted:
"Retreat! Shukaku, build Shield of Shukaku for defense!"
Mukai turning around, the auxiliary thrusters began to push back at full power, and Sasori and Konan flew far into the sky, trying to get away from Hanzo of the Salamander.
Shukaku grabbed the battered and bruised Ibuse by the tail, threw it aside, and used its claws to scoop up the hardest sand, building a tall statue in its own likeness in front of it!
It didn't show any bravado; instead, it timidly hid behind the tall sand statue, sticking out its rear end and tucking its tail in.
Without the sustained wind pressure, the thick purple poisonous mist exhaled by Hanzō spread again. He assumed that his opponent was afraid of his poisonous mist, which was why he retreated after his attack.
"For a junior from Sunagakure to be able to control Shukaku and fly, even if his attack power isn't great, is still quite remarkable!"
I am willing to bestow upon you the name of the Sunagakure Sannin!
Submitting to me is your only way to survive!
Old Rain Ninja also assumed that it was Hanzo of the Salamander who had defeated the opponent, and was about to start praising him when Hanzō suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something extra on his chest.
Explosive Tag? When?
The talisman, which began to hiss and smoke, had unusually complex patterns, as if it didn't exist in this space. No matter how hard Hanzō to swat it, he couldn't remove it.
It's just an Explosive Tag. Even if we lock onto him using some strange method, what can we do?
As he prepared to mobilize his Chakra to protect himself and withstand the attack, he suddenly realized something, and his face showed fear:
"No!"
