Chapter 88 Hanzo's Surprise Attack
Chapter 89 Hanzo's Surprise Attack
Rain Town fell in the dead of night. As the first light of dawn pierced the darkness, Hanzo the Salamander's attack arrived with the torrential rains of the Rain Country.
The moment Fukuko, who was conceiving the Chimera Beast, smelled the first wisp of poisonous smoke, he activated Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
The intense heat burned the skin and flesh, but the reverse light then healed it completely.
"Enemy attack!" someone shouted.
The entire Konoha camp instantly revived with a shout. The prepared ninjas immediately drank the antidote for the salamander, put on gas masks, and then rushed out of the camp to fight the attacking Rain Ninja.
Explosions and shouts of battle rang out simultaneously; the Rain Village's counterattack came swiftly.
Hanzo personally led the team, taking advantage of the favorable weather conditions in Amegakure to launch a Water Instantaneous Body attack inside the camp.
Three salamanders, scattered in different directions, were frantically pouring poisonous mist into the camp.
The air was thick with toxic smoke, and even the raindrops seemed to have taken on a purple hue.
Fu Heiyao wasted no time, quickly drank the antidote, and rushed out of the tent.
A burst of intense lightning flashed, and Fu Heiyao leaped into the air, almost simultaneously tearing through the shadows and speeding away against the rain curtain.
Many people initially thought they were seeing things, until a beam of light, like a silver ribbon, shot down from the sky and pierced the water towards the salamander.
The speed was so fast that it was dazzling, and only a few elite Jonin could barely see it clearly.
As the water jets blended into the rain curtain and shimmered like streaks of light, the salamander in the southeast corner froze instantly.
The water pierced and shredded its brain in an instant.
The next moment, the giant salamander crashed to the ground, without the smoke of the spirit beast disappearing after being severely injured; instead, it fell straight to the ground.
Instant kill, a single, fatal blow.
"It's Fushiko Kuroyo, Lord Kuroyo!"
The Konoha ninja stared wide-eyed at the scene, then followed their gaze to the iconic giant lightning bird in the sky, and immediately cheered.
"The flying ninja is Fushiko Kuroyo!"
Conversely, Yu Yin was greatly alarmed.
For the past month, Fukuyo's flight and slashing attacks have been a nightmare for the entire Amegakure.
They would rather run into Orochimaru than into Fukuko.
Because Orochimaru and his group have weaknesses, you still have a chance to run and survive, but Fukuyo is different.
He is an all-around ninja; his speed, strength, and reflexes are so strong that they inspire despair.
Often, just a fleeting glance would result in being chopped into mango chunks, and he was an Uchiha with the Sharingan.
In an already difficult battle, you can't even look him in the eye.
Even if you don't look into the eyes and can still react to the slash, Fu Heiyao can instantly take off by simply forming a hand seal.
They couldn't hit Fu Heiyao high in the sky at all; on the contrary, Fu Heiyao could easily blow them up with just a couple of ninjutsu.
Despair was evident in the eyes of the Rain Village ninja.
According to the combat experience shared by his comrades, anyone who doesn't run away when they first see Fukuyo is either a Jonin or will be slashed in the next second.
"You all step back, I'll deal with him!" Just as he was preparing to die, a hoarse and deep voice rang out.
The giant salamander pounded through the earth, unleashing a thicker plume of poisonous smoke towards Fu Heiyao, or rather, his summoned beast.
"It's Hanzo the Salamander! He really came!" Seeing the purple breath that seemed to pierce the sky, both Konoha and Amegakure couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
The Rain Village ninja prayed that Hanzo's poison would take effect, paralyzing and completely crippling Fushiko and his flying summoned beast.
The Konoha ninja glared angrily at Hanzo, who had launched a sneak attack, and kept their eyes fixed on Fushiko, who was about to be hit in mid-air.
"How boring and monotonous it is, Hanzo!"
Fu Heiyao grinned as he looked at the more intense poisonous fog than ever before.
The next moment, a flash of dark red light appeared, and to everyone's astonishment, the purple poisonous mist that pierced the sky was split in two by an invisible force.
The location where Fu Heiyao stood seemed to be an absolute forbidden zone, where all the poisonous fog that tried to spread were separated.
However, the slashing had not stopped. As Fuko summoned the dark red Susanoo skeleton, the moment the Susanoo sword bloomed, the slashing became even more powerful. It actually defied the weakness of the slashing weakening over long distances and went against the current, rushing straight at the giant salamander that was breathing.
To others, Fu Heiyao was surrounded by a dark red light, and he "wielded" a dark red greatsword that was completely disproportionate to his size.
The sword's blade seemed to be flowing with lava; just one glance at it made one feel a burning sensation, stinging one's eyes.
"What kind of power is this?"
The ninja with good eyesight saw the chakra skeleton surrounding Fukuyo and spoke with shock.
"This is..." The Uchiha clansmen were so shocked that they stared in disbelief, their three-tomoe Sharingan rotating slightly.
He sensed the profound aura of Sharingan power from the dark red skeleton on Fukuko's body.
"Could this be...the legendary..." A slightly older Uchiha with three tomoe trembled, his throat bobbing but no sound came out.
Because it was so incredible, it was like a legend coming to life.
He knew that Fukuyo possessed Uchiha blood, after all, he had never hidden the fact that he had the Sharingan.
But he never expected that Fu Heiyao was hiding his true intentions so well!
"This is Susanoo!" The older Uchiha's voice trembled almost as he stared with faith at the chakra skeleton surrounding Fukuyo.
"Only the Mangekyou Sharingan can activate this divine power, known as the ultimate eye technique!"
Upon hearing this, even the Uchiha who were immersed in the thrill of battle looked up in shock after killing their enemies, gazing at Fukuyo, who seemed like a god in the sky.
Most Uchiha who didn't know about the Mangekyou Sharingan were somewhat bewildered, but after hearing an older generation of Uchiha mention the eyes and power that Madara Uchiha had once awakened, they instantly became fanatical.
"This is the power of the Uchiha!"
"Kill!" Seeing the Uchiha's morale surge by 30% as they saw the Black Obsidian Susanoo suddenly appear, their teammates scratched their heads in disbelief.
"Water escape. Water formation wall!"
Faced with a slash that seemed capable of tearing the world apart, Hanzo did not hesitate and immediately unleashed his strongest defense.
Because of the heavy rain, Hanzo didn't even need to gather water after forming the hand seals; the raindrops in front of him stopped, as if drawn by an unknown force, gathering layer by layer in front of the salamander.
"Splash!"
The next moment, the slash tore through the stagnant water curtain, and in the blurry water, Hanzo vaguely seemed to see a pair of blood-red eyes.
Those eyes were eerie and stunning, seemingly possessing a fatal charm that made people dazed.
"Not good!" Realizing he had been caught in an illusion, Hanzo immediately controlled his salamander to burrow underground while simultaneously using Water Body Flicker.
Seeing that the Sharingan genjutsu had failed to control Hanzo, Fukuyo remained calm, his Sharingan eyes, which exuded a strong sense of mental pressure, staring at the edge of the camp.
Suddenly, the protective barrier of the distant camp collapsed, and with a huge roar, the salamander burst out of the ground, allowing a large number of Rain Village ninjas to rush into the camp.
Hanzo stood atop the newly emerged salamander, looking at Fukuyo with apprehension.
"Sorry, we're a little late." Just then, three figures suddenly appeared beside Fu Heiyao.
Jiraiya crossed his arms and stared intently at Hanzo, but his tone carried a hint of flippancy.
"It's not too late," Fu Heiyao said. "Anyway, I'll win in the end, so it doesn't matter when I come."
"You're really confident, kid." Orochimaru licked his lips, while Tsunade laughed heartily.
"Orochimaru has brought them here!" Seeing that the four people who were strategically meant to contain Hanzo had all gathered, the Konoha ninja finally felt relieved.
The Rain Village ninjas simply charged forward in silence.
The heavy rain gradually began to fall, seemingly carrying their guilt for not being able to help their leader.
But there is one more thing they can do: tear apart Konoha's defenses and retake Raindance Town!
In order to make Amegakure great again, they resolutely charged towards Konoha, their eyes filled with a final madness.
The splashing water, mixed with dripping blood, stained the earth crimson.
"Hanzo the Salamander, a demigod of the ninja world," Fushiko said. "We meet again, but I think this is the last time."
Hanzo stood atop the salamander's head, his gaze fixed on Fukuyo with apprehension. "Of all the enemies I've faced, even disregarding age, you are the most troublesome."
"Be arrogant, you Konoha brats!"
Hanzo's words completely ignited the emotions of the entire audience.
Hanzo is known as a demigod in the ninja world, and to have him personally acknowledge this is undoubtedly a great honor.
Although he is not the only strongest, Fukokuyo's age makes up for that.
Everyone present, even the enemies, had to admit that if Fukuyo could grow up smoothly, he would definitely surpass Hanzo in the future.
"Salamander, hide."
After the pre-battle declaration, Hanzo, facing four opponents who had a numerical advantage, immediately ordered the salamander to hide without hesitation.
As Hanzo predicted, the salamander had just burrowed underground when it was hit in its original spot by a single, concentrated water-piercing shot.
The highly penetrating water jet pierced the earth, and some blood from the salamander, mixed with potent poison, even seeped out of the hole.
"Well done!" Tsunade shouted.
With Obsidian's ability to penetrate water serving as a deterrent, Hanzo can no longer summon salamanders to fight at will, which is equivalent to directly crippling 30% of his strength.
"That water-style technique again! How does this brat even manage this level of control?!"
Hanzo frowned deeply as he faced Obsidian's water-piercing attack.
Hanzo was an expert in Water Release; even in the entire ninja world, his Water Release skills would rank among the top three.
But no matter what, he could never do the instantaneous compressed water escape technique like Fu Heiyao.
In the rules of ninjutsu, the more complex and powerful a technique is, the higher the required hand seals and level of proficiency.
Of course, Hanzo knew that once he became more proficient, the hand seals could be simplified, but no matter how simplified they were, hand seals were still necessary.
Fu Heiyao is different; his water penetration is a natural, flowing motion.
Although there is a movement that looks like a hand seal, the hand seal and the compression and release process are almost identical.
As the water-piercing attack came again, Hanzo instantly disappeared into the water.
A battle was about to break out, and swords flashed everywhere in the rain.
However, their battles were all deliberately carried out away from the camp.
This is both an unspoken rule and a form of strategic deterrence.
If Hanzo were to rely on his speed to disregard the rules and slaughter low-level ninjas, then Fushiko would have to throw an expanding Rasengan from the sky.
Meanwhile, at the rear of the battlefield, Nawaki and Minato worked together. Nawaki used his vague sense of malice to restrain Minato, while Minato used Sakumo's Wind and Lightning Secret Technique to thrust. Together, they killed a Jonin from Amegakure.
Then, their gazes pierced through the gaps between the layers of ninjas and fell upon the figures of Fukuko, Orochimaru, and the others heading out of the camp.
Nawaki said with envy, "Yo is so impressive. I wonder when I'll be able to stand in front of him."
Minato smiled without saying a word, but a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
They were left behind again.
However, this time Minato at least had a clear direction. He made up his mind to go into seclusion and train in the Flying Thunder God Technique after the war ended.
With that ninjutsu, he could play an irreplaceable role even in battles at the Kage level.
