______________________________

What a fast Flash Step technique!

This thought crossed Orochimaru's mind.

I saw Byakuya Kuchiki slashing Hanzō of the Salamander with his sword!

Wow!

Hanzō of the Salamander suddenly turned into a puddle of water, causing Byakuya Kuchiki's slash to miss!

Jiraiya shouted, "That's Water Body!"

"As expected of a demigod in the ninja world, when he senses something amiss, he immediately transforms his body into water..."

Orochimaru's snake-like vertical pupils stared sharply at the movements of the two men, panic getting battle experience.

Byakuya Kuchiki's blow missed, but the pressure of his sword landed on Ibuse's head without exerting any force.

Just hearing the explosion, the middle part of Ibuse's head suddenly dented, then slammed into the ground hard!

Ibuse howled in pain!

Jiraiya's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "What kind of sword technique is this? Why does it feel as formidable as Tsunade's strange power!"

Tsunade's face darkened. Thinking about the identity of the injured person, she could only remember this incident and deal with it later!

Hanzō of the Salamander didn't care about his Summoning, but praised, "Wow, your swordsmanship is quite good, but compared to me, you're still far behind!"

Hanzō of the Salamander flashed, and his Body Flicker Technique was equally fast, wielding his scythe and slashing straight at Byakuya Kuchiki!

"Sword Technique: Iai Slash!"

The poison-coated scythe pierced Byakuya Kuchiki at high speed, but Hanzō of the Salamander's expression remained unchanged.

No sense of hitting!

Hanzō of the Salamander had a cold expression, and a white furry cloth with the large character "six" hung on his scythe.

Empty Cricket!

Byakuya Kuchiki learned the Shunpo technique from Shihouin Yoruichi when he was young. He left his cloak as a decoy, making the enemy mistakenly believe that he had hit his main body.

If possible, he really didn't want to use the ability related to that woman.

But it couldn't be denied that this trick was indeed useful.

"Substitution Technique?"

Orochimaru's eyes gleamed in surprise.

This Substitution Technique seemed different from the usual Substitution Technique. Not only were there no traces of a sea lion, it even looked like a golden cricket shedding its shell.

I wonder if his Snake Ninjutsu can develop a similar Substitution Technique?

After all, crickets can shed their shells, and snakes can shed their skins too...

Hanzō of the Salamander saw that his blow wasn't heavy, so he immediately distanced himself.

Ibuse, who was in pain, also recovered from his agony and dived at Hanzō of the Salamander's feet, grabbing him.

Hanzō of the Salamander lightly tapped his foot. Years of silent understanding made Sanshouyu immediately understand his mind.

He opened his mouth wide, and thick purple mist spewed out!

"Watch out!"

Tsunade, who watched the battle from afar, couldn't help but remind, "That's the poisonous gas in Ibuse's body!"

Even though she had been warned, Tsunade thought this person might still be in danger.

Ibuse's poisonous gas not only spread widely and in large quantities but was also highly toxic. Even she, a medical expert from Konoha, couldn't do anything about it.

Let alone others who were not familiar with medical knowledge.

Byakuya Kuchiki didn't heed Tsunade's warning.

As the poisonous fog was about to engulf him, Byakuya Kuchiki uttered a few words coldly.

"Bakudō no. 81· Dankū."

With a hum, a transparent wall that was invisible to the naked eye suddenly appeared in front of Byakuya Kuchiki, blocking the large poisonous fog.

No matter how large the amount of poisonous fog, it couldn't overcome it!

"What kind of ninjutsu is this? Its defensive range is so wide!"

Orochimaru's eyes widened slightly. Such a defense ninjutsu was the first time he had seen it aside from the three Rashomon recorded in Konoha's Forbidden Techniques scroll!

Novel ninjutsu made him slightly excited, and his desire for knowledge made him unconsciously lick the corners of his mouth.

The Whirlpool Kingdom truly was a miraculous country!

Tsunade was slightly disturbed. The poison that made them uncomfortable was so easily broken?

"Hey, hey, did you see that he doesn't have any seals?"

Jiraiya shouted excitedly, pulling Orochimaru and Tsunade out of their respective countries' worries.

Orochimaru grumbled, "Fool."

Tsunade raised her eyebrows and said, "Jiraiya, if you have time, look up information about various countries recorded in Konoha."

"Huh? Isn't this surprising?"

Jiraiya scratched his head.

Hanzo of the Salamander stared at Byakuya Kuchiki, who was unharmed, and sneered, "As expected of the Uzumaki Kingdom that defeated the Water Country. He's quite capable. Much better than those three small fry from Konoha over there."

Orochimaru: "..."

Tsunade: "#"

Jiraiya said angrily, "Hey, blame yourselves. What would we do if you trampled on us!"

Hanzo of the Salamander ignored them and muttered to himself, "But if you only have this ability, then stay in the Rain Country today."

His eyes turned cold, and a killing intent arose in his heart.

He wanted to kill any genius in any country!

As long as it could weaken the strength of other countries, it would enhance the hidden strength of the Rain Kingdom.

He didn't dare to kill anyone in Konoha.

But because he was no weaker than the Whirlpool Kingdom, he wouldn't miss this opportunity to weaken the Whirlpool Kingdom's strength!

Even if the Water Country and the Rain Country were at war, he didn't need to be afraid!

It was just a victory over a country at the bottom.

If the Rain Country didn't start a war with the three major ninja villages at the same time, a large country would have been conquered long ago!

Seeing that Ibuse's poisonous gas couldn't do anything to Byakuya Kuchiki, Hanzō of the Salamander used the Body Flicker Technique, wielded his scythe, and began a bare-handed fight with Byakuya Kuchiki!

But Byakuya Kuchiki's swordsmanship was also top-notch, and a simple bare-handed fight was useless to him.

Hanzō of the Salamander clearly also realized this. As soon as he saw it, the chain behind his scythe suddenly started spinning around Byakuya Kuchiki's sword!

Wow!

Almost instantly, the chain coiled around Byakuya Kuchiki's sword.

Hanzo of the Salamander pulled it forcefully, and Byakuya Kuchiki's hand holding the sword was stretched forward unconsciously as the sword was lifted.

"Hah, young man, your experience is still lacking."

"Shatter!"

When Jiraiya saw Byakuya Kuchiki's knife controlled, he not only worried about it, but...

Even though he didn't know Byakuya Kuchiki, as long as he fought against Hanzō of the Salamander, Jiraiya would feel that he was on the right side.

At this moment, Orochimaru was trapped in his thoughts, but he was very anxious.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and said, "Anyway, a demigod is still a demigod..."

Although he said that, he could clearly remember that according to Konoha's intelligence, almost everyone in the Whirlpool Kingdom had a sword.

And that sword still contained magical power.

So far, the man had not used that ability.

Byakuya Kuchiki's eyes remained cold, and his nonchalant attitude towards anyone made Hanzō of the Salamander snort.

Byakuya Kuchiki said indifferently, "Listen to them, are you a demigod?"

Regarding this title, Hanzō of the Salamander was very proud and sneered, "Why, after many things happened, do you want to evoke pity from my strong people and spare your life?"

"No, I thought as a demigod, you might be very strong, but until now, I haven't found anything worthy of praise."

Hanzō of the Salamander was very angry and shouted, "You're arrogant!"

He pulled his chain, trying to forcibly pull Byakuya Kuchiki towards him, then stabbed him in the head with his scythe.

But the knife wrapped in the chain shattered into pieces. He pulled it suddenly, staggering back a few steps unintentionally, and unconsciously looked forward.

Byakuya Kuchiki's lips moved slightly, and he whispered softly, "Scatter, Senbonzakura."
