A red torii gate descended from the sky, pressing down on one of the Nine-Tails Fox's fox tails. Suddenly in pain, the imposter Nine-Tailed Nine-Tails turned its head and roared, then extended its other fox tails and claws, attempting to break free from the suppression of the Gate of the Great God.
But one after another, torii gates descended from the sky, suppressing the nine fox tails of the Nine-Tails Fox one by one, followed by its limbs and neck, completely suppressing the imposter Nine-Tails under the Gate of the Great God.
"Now that the Nine-Tails problem has been resolved, Lord Mizukage, who do you think will be next?" Naoki Senju asked with a smile, looking at Mei Terumi.
Mei Terumi unconsciously took a small step back. The Nine-Tails, with its mountain-like size and frenzied, violent Chakra, had been suppressed so easily?
So, does that mean Naoki Senju's apparent struggle was just an act?!
Mei Terumi couldn't accept this fact. Had she and the entire Kirigakure been manipulated by Naoki Senju?
If Naoki Senju could hear Mei Terumi's thoughts, he would definitely say: Kirigakure is irrelevant; what I really want is to manipulate the Lord Mizukage...
" Lord Mizukage, if you are willing to concede defeat, I can represent Konoha and bestow upon Lord Mizukage the highest honors," Naoki Senju said with a smile. However, while he could keep his promise, Tsunade was not obligated to.
"Admitting defeat voluntarily, huh..." Mei Terumi let out two disdainful sneers.
No matter how good the treatment promised by Naoki Senju is, once he admits defeat, he'll just be a prisoner...
Moreover, someone as proud as Mei Terumi would never willingly become a prisoner. Her pride would not allow it, and her status would certainly not allow it!
" Naoki Senju, you're celebrating too soon. Do you think Konoha has all the advantages now?"
Mei Terumi was speaking, a large-scale burst of Chakra erupted from Konoha not far away, clearly indicating that a fierce battle was about to break out in Konoha.
Sensing the commotion within Konoha, Mei Terumi breathed a sigh of relief. Facing Naoki Senju, who was almost at his peak and didn't need to be distracted by suppressing the Nine-Tails, she certainly had no chance of winning. However, as long as she could hold off Naoki Senju from returning to Konoha, Kirigakure would still have a chance of victory!
However, something Mei Terumi hadn't anticipated happened again—Naoki Senju, who had activated Sage Mode, didn't rush back to Konoha's aid. Instead, he moved like a tiger among sheep, killing the scattered Kirigakure Jonin with incredible speed.
Wood Release, One-Tail Chakra, extremely violent Taijutsu... a variety of attack methods emerged one after another, and none of them could be dealt with by an ordinary Jonin on their own.
Mei Terumi gritted her teeth, knowing that her scheme had failed once again; Naoki Senju seemed to have absolutely no soft heart.
" Lava Release: Lava Release: Melting Apparition Technique."
The attack from behind forced Naoki Senju to slow down his pace, allowing a Kirigakure Ninja had been severely injured by the Monster Strength Fist punch to escape.
" Lord Mizukage, it seems you're not willing to admit defeat willingly. You won't receive any special treatment that way."
Mei Terumi wiped the golden-red liquid from the corner of her mouth, her fiery red lips parted slightly:
"If you can catch my passionate kiss, I'll surrender immediately, okay?"
Although Mei Terumi's words were sensual and alluring, the so-called passionate kiss was not an intense kiss, but a kiss in the literal sense.
The Lava Release, which can melt even Wood Release and Susanoo, and the Boil Release, Susanoo, are clearly beyond the tolerance of normal humans.
"In that case, let's see who's the real deal."
As soon as he finished speaking, Naoki Senju vanished from his spot. Mei Terumi's pupils shrank sharply; she hadn't seen Naoki Senju's movements at all. It seemed that Naoki Senju had also concealed his strength last time, otherwise, the speed at which Naoki Senju's strength had improved would have been far too exaggerated.
" Boil Release, Boil Release: Skilled Mist Technique." Mei Terumi's idea was simple: since she couldn't keep up with Naoki Senju's speed for the time being, she would restrict the way Naoki Senju attacked. She didn't believe that Naoki Senju could maintain this speed indefinitely!
With Senjutsu Chakra flowing through his body, Naoki Senju, having activated Sage Mode, undoubtedly reached a new level of strength. Power, speed, Ninjutsu — Sage Mode brought comprehensive enhancements. However, looking at the pale green acid mist before him, Naoki Senju still felt extremely troubled.
If they could just wear down Chakra Mei Terumi's chakra like last time, they would definitely win, but that would fall into Mei Terumi's trap. In Konoha, Tsunade and Kakashi alone could not hold out against the entire Kirigakure for long.
With this in mind, Naoki Senju steeled his resolve and brazenly charged into the acid mist.
While Ninjutsu like Wood Release cannot withstand the corrosive effects of acid mist, Naoki Senju's body and regenerative abilities can withstand it, though the process will be extremely painful.
The skin all over the body gradually melts away, then rapidly heals itself under the influence of Sage Mode and a powerful physique, only to melt away again... Just thinking about this process is Kunai.
The moment Naoki Senju stepped into the acid mist, wisps of white smoke rose from his clothes, a sign that the plant fibers were being corroded. Naoki Senju was not arrogant enough to observe the power of the acid mist, and he approached Mei Terumi incredibly fast speed.
" Monster Strength Fist."
Feeling the strong wind coming from behind, Mei Terumi was startled, not expecting that Naoki Senju would break through the acid mist and appear directly behind her.
" Water Release · Water Formation Wall."
" Lava Release: Lava Release: Melting Apparition Technique."
A simple compound Ninjutsu was unleashed almost instantly, shattering the newly solidified lava with a single punch from Naoki Senju, but Mei Terumi also used this opening to dodge the terrifyingly powerful punch.
Only then did Mei Terumi get a clear look at Naoki Senju's appearance. Her pretty face flushed slightly, and she spat inwardly.
Naoki Senju's clothes had been completely corroded away, leaving only a few strips of cloth hanging on his body, but they would soon be corroded away as well. Little Naoki then openly greeted Mei Terumi.
As for the skin, it was even more horrific; in many places, bright red flesh and blood were exposed, then it would heal itself, only to be corroded again...
Mei Terumi gasped. Naoki Senju Naoki Senju wasn't the first ninja to be corroded by the acid mist, but he was definitely the first to actively rush into it, and even manage to resist it with his self-healing abilities.
Terrifying!
Before Mei Terumi could unleash another Ninjutsu, Naoki Senju appeared in front of Mei Terumi in an instant and then controlled his strength to strike her Mei Terumi.
Struck by this heavy blow Mei Terumi's eyes rolled back and she promptly fainted. Naoki Senju caught Mei Terumi's waist and hips and dodged away from the area shrouded in acid mist.
After the most dangerous battle ended, Naoki Senju finally felt the pain all over his body, so much so that he couldn't control his expression. At the same time, his desire for revenge surged.
Unable to resist, he flipped Mei Terumi over, placed her on his lap, and then aimed at Mei Terumi slightly upturned round buttocks, slapping her repeatedly.
"Serves you right for being naughty! Serves you right for using Boil Release! When you wake up, I'll definitely train you into the most obedient little maid!"
