"As expected of Hanzo!"
Xuanma sighed.
They will not hesitate to take action as soon as they feel threatened.
Moreover, he showed no signs of being a strong person. He actually made such a big show of force in front of such an unknown brat ninja.
There are more than twenty people here!
However, considering that Hanzo sent people to take hostages first in order to deal with the Akatsuki, it can be seen that the current situation is not a big deal. He did not take action directly in Amegakure, which shows that he still has some face.
However, Genma felt very happy.
Or rather, this is precisely the direction of development he envisioned.
Since Hanzo chose to take action against him, it means that this guy was interested in his suggestion and was prepared to selectively implement it.
That's great!
"If I were Hanzo, I probably would have done the same!"
Xuanma thought about forming a hand seal with one hand.
Bang!
As the smoke cleared, a huge falcon appeared beside them.
It is a clone, but to many Rain Ninja, it is a summoning jutsu.
In an instant, the Rain Ninjas on both sides launched their attack.
Genma threw the captured Iwa ninja to his clone, who then carried him into the sky in its claws and headed towards the Land of Fire.
Hanzo saw this but didn't bother with it; he just wanted to keep this brat named Yufeng Genma.
below.
After his clone left, Xuanma first drew his long sword Mihu, then his short sword Lanya.
Almost simultaneously, lightning crackled around him and shot forth, quickly enveloping the two chakra blades as well.
At that moment, four black umbrellas took off and unfolded in the air.
Before he even arrived, the ninja tools had already enveloped Genma.
As the four umbrellas spun rapidly, countless senbon needles flew down from the sky, forming a dark, overwhelming mass that sent chills down one's spine.
This is a pure saturation attack!
However, before the dense thousand books arrived, the Xuanma people disappeared from the spot.
"That is—"
Hanzo's pupils contracted, completely failing to catch Genma's exact movement trajectory. In just two flashes, he escaped the range of the ninja tool's coverage. Boom!
Mud and water splashed.
On the right, a charging Rain Ninja was stomped into the mud by Genma.
Without pausing, Xuanma leaped forward, his body spinning rapidly like a top, rubbing against the airflow and creating a whistling sound.
Meanwhile, the ninja sword, crackling with blue lightning, also slashed at high speed. The blue blade light exploded like a bolt of lightning under the rain, radiating outwards in dazzling bursts of light.
puff~
A rain-soaked ninja clutched his neck, but no blood spurted out.
His wounds were charred black by the intense lightning. The lightning paralyzed him, making him unable to feel pain, but he couldn't breathe, so he collapsed, clutching his neck.
Another Rain Ninja's breathing mask exploded, her face was cut in half, and she fell backward with her eyes wide open.
In the blink of an eye, three people were killed, and a huge torrent of water surged toward Xuanma.
Xuanma's figure suddenly disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already standing on the water, like a bolt of lightning speeding across the water.
The Rain Ninja who used Water Release was surprised. He quickly formed hand seals, and streams of water immediately condensed in the surging water, wrapping around and binding Genma, trying to grab him.
Several ninjas rushed onto the water from both sides, chasing after Genma, their shuriken flying out one after another, but all of them missed.
Because Genma was too fast, he arrived in front of the Rain Ninja who was using Water Release techniques in the blink of an eye.
Rain Ninja opened his mouth and spat out a stream of water like an arrow, but Genma disappeared before his eyes.
He flashed behind the Rain Ninja and ended the fight with a single slash from Genma.
Bang!
Rain Ninja's body disintegrated into a stream of water.
It's a water clone!
Suddenly, the electric light on Xuanma's body radiated outwards, spreading rapidly through the water in front of it.
"Be careful!"
The rain ninjas rushed towards Genma and shouted, leaping from the water.
Genma swept his gaze across the area, then took to the air. As his figure flashed, the Rain Ninja in the air screamed in agony, and corpses crashed down one after another.
Meanwhile, the Rain Ninja who had used Water Clone to create a substitute was paralyzed by the lightning and stood on the water's surface, watching his comrades fall from the sky one by one, his eyes filled with terror.
The next moment, he felt a sharp pain in his heart. Looking down, he saw the tip of a knife emerging from his chest, and all his strength was rapidly drained away.
Behind him, Xuanma slowly drew his sword.
The caster died, and the water beneath his feet quickly receded.
At this point, he had eliminated all the Rain Ninjas on the right.
The Rain Ninjas charging from the left all stopped in their tracks.
too fast!
Seeing the Rain Ninja stop, Genma grinned and disappeared again.
The battle continues.
High-speed attacks, unparalleled reaction speed, plus the space-time substitution technique.
Genma moved like a mowing-down-the-grass-with-it-all, felling one Rain Ninja after another, turning them into corpses.
Suddenly, the ground beneath their feet exploded, and a gaping maw opened, ready to devour the Xuanma in the air and the Rain Ninja who had just been killed.
Moreover, before it even entered its mouth, purple poisonous gas surged out from its gaping maw, threatening to engulf it.
Salamander!
Hanzo is truly insidious!
Seeing that they were about to be engulfed by the poison gas, Genma and the salamander switched places.
As the two blades clashed and blood splattered, the salamander let out a piercing scream before its spirit possession was severed with a bang.
Xuanma landed and then looked down. He saw the surrounding soil flowing and turning into explosive talismans that wrapped around his legs.
A dozen meters behind him, Hanzo formed a hand seal.
Fire Release: Exploding Flame Formation!
Tsunade and Nagato were both hit by this attack!
It was obvious that the salamander had blocked their view, and Hanzo took the opportunity to set this up.
Just as the explosion was about to occur, Genma immediately switched positions with Hanzo.
"What?"
Hanzo was shocked. He immediately raised one hand and disappeared from the spot.
Rumble!
The explosion was detonated, sending up clouds of smoke and dust.
The burning pain in his legs made Hanzo's face darken.
Although he reacted quickly and his Water Instantaneous Movement was also fast, he was still injured, albeit only slightly.
"This guy deliberately held back before."
Hanzo stared at Genma.
Having watched the battle, he couldn't possibly have missed the fact that Genma's substitution technique was of the space-time type, allowing him to directly traverse space and teleport.
However, there are distance limitations.
So he thought he was outside the range of Xuanma's spell, but he never expected to be misled.
Not only are they farther apart, but they can also swap places with others.
And it's very likely that the positions have always been swapped, but the kid just now might have swapped with something he couldn't see, like air.
"Lord Hanzo, are you alright?"
Black Rain appeared on either side of Hanzo, accompanied by a group of Rain Ninja.
Hanzo said calmly, "It's just a minor injury."
Seeing Hanzo and the others, Genma immediately took out an antidote pill from his ninja tool bag and swallowed it.
This is a secret antidote pill made by Tsunade. She once said that even Hanzo's deadly poison could keep her unaffected for five minutes.
"This guy is probably using an antidote specially made by Tsunade, one of the three legendary Sannin of Konoha. He probably isn't afraid of your salamander's deadly poison."
Hei Yu said in a deep voice, "Lord Hanzo, you should retreat first. I'll take some men and take care of this guy!"
Hanzo said in a deep voice, "You are no match for him!"
"Don't engage him in close combat. Surround him and block all escape routes."
The rain ninja, including Kuroyu, immediately obeyed: "Yes, Lord Hanzo!"
One by one, the Rain Ninjas vanished in an instant, scattering in all directions and surrounding Genma once again.
Then they all formed a hand seal, and as they opened their mouths, a torrent of water poured out.
Rumble!
The water roared, and Xuanma looked up to see the surging water, with huge walls of water rising all around, rolling towards him.
Moreover, the water flow converges in the air, completely blocking space in all directions.
Moreover, the water area is very wide, with a range of more than 20 meters in each direction.
In other words, even if Xuanma teleports while touching the water's surface, it cannot instantly move to the outside; it must change positions again in the water.
"There might be explosive tags hidden in the water, right?"
Xuanma snorted to himself.
Hanzo is skilled in using explosive fire arrays, and can disguise them as muddy ground.
This is a transformation ability.
Therefore, it is also possible to disguise the explosive flame array as water.
Genma believed that if he teleported, Hanzo would immediately detonate the explosions. The multiple explosions and the underwater explosions would create a strong shockwave that could indeed injure him.
"Since that's a possibility—then I won't teleport!"
Xuanma took a deep breath, and a surge of natural energy flowed into his body.
It's sizzling!
The electric current tore through the air and rain, and Xuanma sheathed his sword and charged forward head-on.
As the water wall, several meters high, crashed down, Xuanma, moving with lightning speed, raised his hand and unleashed a terrifying burst of power, throwing a punch.
The water wall paused for a moment, then suddenly exploded and collapsed, with torrents of water cascading down with a thunderous roar.
Genma, who had only paused slightly, disappeared from his spot and then reappeared beside a Rain Ninja.
But before Genma could make a move against the Rain Ninja, explosive tags appeared in the water beneath him and detonated instantly.
Rumble~
This isn't the only place.
Instead, Hanzo detonated all the ambushes he had set up in the water at once, in multiple locations.
No matter which Rain Ninja Genma appears next to, he will face the explosion of the explosive tags.
In an instant, flames shot into the sky, water splashed, and steam billowed.
As the explosion subsided, the massive amount of steam dissipated, leaving behind only muddy ground and mangled corpses.
Genma suddenly appeared beside Hanzo.
Hanzo immediately transformed into a stream of water, entangling Genma's body, with explosive tags detonating within the water.
Rumble!
Explosive Flame Array Detonation.
On the high plateau, Hanzo stared intently.
As the smoke cleared, Hanzo immediately saw Genma appear in another location.
"As expected, it can swap positions with any substance, including air and enemies, as long as they are within a certain distance."
"Moreover, even if his movements are restricted, he can still escape."
Hanzo's heart sank.
This technique is too troublesome!
Even though he had analyzed the key information about this technique, he still felt it was tricky.
"Lord Hanzo, this guy's techniques are too troublesome."
Black rain appeared beside Hanzo.
All the other Rain Ninja were treated as expendable pawns, leaving only him as a Jonin.
"Leave him here, my men! We will fight to the death to kill him and prevent him from interfering with the village's plans!"
Black Rain made a decision that he was determined to die.
Genma looked at Hanzo and Kuroyu on the high plateau.
They're the only ones left.
But surprisingly, they didn't leave.
The Xuanma differs slightly.
The strength he's displaying now is beyond what Hanzo can handle. Given his cautious nature, why isn't he retreating?
With a few leaps, Genma arrived at the foot of the plateau, drew his Miko sword, and looked up at the two men: "Lord Hanzo, what was originally a good deal has now resulted in such a great loss. Indeed, you are not a qualified leader."
Hanzo stared at Genma from his high vantage point, then drew his scythe: "I admit, you are superior to the legendary Sannin of Konoha from back then."
"This also proves that my choice was correct."
"If you can survive my attack, you will be able to be as famous as your teacher, Konoha's White Fang."
-
Are they pulling this stunt again?
Genma chuckled: "Lord Hanzo, I'd much rather establish my reputation with your life than bestow it upon you!"
"Arrogant! How could you possibly defeat Lord Hanzo!"
Hei Yu roared and leaped down, knife in hand.
While still in the air, the person opened their mouth and spat out black senbon needles.
It was formed from black water, and this substance was highly poisonous and corrosive.
Almost simultaneously, Hanzo also vanished from his spot.
Xuanma instantly dodged the water escape technique of the black rain, and as soon as he landed, a strong wind came from his side.
clang!
Sparks flew as Miko's chakra blade clashed with Hanzo's scythe.
Immediately afterwards, Genma and Hanzo's figures disappeared at the same time.
Genma attempted to use the Substitution Jutsu to switch positions and kill Hanzo, but Hanzo decisively used the Instant Retreat to retreat from his original position, thwarting Genma's attempt.
"Your technique is indeed troublesome, but it's not without a way to counter it!"
Hanzo opened his mouth.
Then, the black rain's water escape attack came, and the black water dragon crashed down.
Genma dodged in an instant, but Hanzo launched a surprise attack.
clang!
Blades clashed.
Genma swung his sword wildly, his figure flashing like a ghost, his attacks engulfing Hanzo like a storm.
The two began to clash with each other using their swordsmanship and teleportation techniques.
One is Lightning Release: Body Flicker Technique, and the other is Water Release: Body Flicker Technique.
There's also Black Rain, who will strike from the side, launching a surprise attack with Water Release techniques when the opportunity arises, or using swordsmanship to create chances for Hanzo.
He was also an excellent Jonin.
Genma fought two opponents alone, and with the powerful speed and reaction ability of his Lightning Release in Sage Mode, he was not at a disadvantage at all.
It must be said that Hanzo's title of demigod is certainly not solely due to his possession of deadly poison.
His swordsmanship was superb, in no way inferior to Hatake Sakumo.
Genma felt that his Instantaneous Movement Technique was even faster than that of his teacher, Hatake Sakumo.
It was only the Lightning Release Chakra Mode in Sage Mode that suppressed Hanzo and the other two.
It must be admitted that Hanzo was indeed at the level of the five great ninja village kage.
"Your antidote pills came from Tsunade, didn't they?"
"But even with her skills, there's no way to completely eliminate the poison in the salamander."
"You can only last 5 minutes at most —"
Hanzo spoke in succession.
Xuanma remained unmoved.
To kill Hanzo, kill the third party first!
After a dozen or so rounds, Genma suddenly abandoned Hanzo and used the Substitution Jutsu to teleport to Kuroyu's side again, stabbing him through the body with a single strike.
Black Rain spat out blood, yet a smile appeared on his face, and his body instantly collapsed and disintegrated.
Flames mixed with fragments of corpses swept in all directions.
At this moment, the raging flames and flying fragments of corpses all seemed to slow down in Xuanma's eyes.
Just as the flames were about to strike him, Xuanma vanished.
He teleported backward several meters in an instant, swapping positions with the air, and then teleported again immediately afterward.
He sensed danger the moment he appeared, as flames shot into the sky from the ground.
He seemed to have teleported into the firelight on purpose.
Rumble!
Xuanma was engulfed by a terrible explosion and flames.
More than 20 meters away, Hanzo slowly let go.
Finally, we've got this horrible brat sorted out!
He just risked the life of his subordinate, Hei Yu.
Hanzo had no hope of defeating Genma with the explosive flame array he set up on Kuroyu; his goal was to force Genma to use the Space-Time Instantaneous Movement Technique.
Hanzo believed that in such a critical situation, people would instinctively retreat, even if they teleported.
Therefore, based on the distance of Genma's teleportation, Hanzo set up an ambush.
There are three explosive fire arrays in total.
One is placed every 15 meters, and then they are detonated together.
No matter how many times Xuanma changes positions, he can still take care of things.
Of course, this is a gamble, a gamble that Xuanma will choose to retreat, rather than in another direction.
It was clearly a winning bet!
Hanzo turned around, about to leave, but his body stiffened.
"Lord Hanzo, I'm sorry to disappoint you!"
Genma appeared silently behind Hanzo.
Hanzo did not resist, but turned his head slightly: "You avoided the trap?"
Genma didn't answer, but instead asked, "Is this a clone?"
"When did it start?"
"After I got injured, it was only my clones that I actually fought, right?"
Hanzo didn't answer, but instead said, "To have achieved so much at such a young age, you might become the next God of Shinobi!"
Genma shook his head: "No, I won't become the next anyone!"
