Chapter 231 Tsunade: Now it's my turn to command!
Chapter 231 Tsunade: Now it's my turn to take charge! (th update)
The effect of the Phantom Body Flickering Technique becomes even more terrifying with the help of the Mangekyō Sharingan.
As Hanekawa began to think, he felt a wave of heat coming from above his head.
Uchiha Shisui, who had run into the air at some point, formed seals with his hands, raised his body, and spit out a huge fireball.
Art fire escape ho fireball!
A huge fireball with a diameter of more than three meters fell from the sky and hit Hanekawa with a bang.
The scorching flames engulfed his figure, and air waves swept in all directions.
Uchiha Shisui landed gently on the ground.
At this moment, he felt someone grabbing his legs and his body fell uncontrollably.
But Uchiha Shisui's body trembled slightly and turned into an illusion again.
Hanekawa could only withdraw his Earth Style: Heart Decapitation Technique.
Uchiha Shisui's eyes narrowed.
He formed seals with his hands, and seven clones appeared nearby.
Eight Uchiha Shisui holding ninja swords attacked Hanekawa from all directions.
The knife flashes towards you.
Hanekawa clapped his hands calmly.
Earth Escape·Yellow Quan Marsh!
With him as the center, a swamp with a diameter of ten meters formed.
Uchiha Shisui reacted in time because he had the Mangekyō Sharingan.
With a light touch, he stopped and stepped back.
But his phantoms were not so fast and they all sank into the swamp, unable to move.
"This is the first time my Shadow Twist Technique has been broken by Earth Escape."
Uchiha Shisui looked at Hanekawa and felt the situation was tricky.
After he opened his Mangekyō Sharingan, he could indeed see Hanekawa's movements clearly, but that didn't mean he could become faster.
Uchiha Shisui took a deep breath, leaped forward, and attacked again.
Fire Release: Impatiens flower claws are red!
He threw out several kunai wrapped in flames, which scattered like balsam seeds.
Compound Ninja Technique: Earth Dragon Flame Style!
Hanekawa formed seals with his hands, raised his head and spit out flames.
At the same time, a huge dragon head emerged at his feet.
The flames and the mud bombs spewed out by the earth dragon merged into one and hit the kunai wrapped in flames.
Rumble!
As soon as it came into contact, the flame produced a violent explosion.
Uchiha Shisui's pupils couldn't help but shrink.
Because the fire mud bomb was cut in a circle, it withstood the explosion and arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye.
"This is... compound ninjutsu?"
This thought flashed through Uchiha Shisui's mind, but his hands did not slow down.
He drew out his ninja sword and chopped at the flaming mud bomb.
Uchiha Style·Sword Jumping Flame!
The flaming blade cut through the flaming mud bomb, and mud and sparks flew everywhere, like a ball of fireworks blooming around him.
Water Escape·Water Rush Wave!
Hanekawa put his hands together, and a tornado made of water took shape.
Under his control, it gushed out like a waterfall and turned into a big river.
Waves of water continued to surge towards Uchiha Shisui.
Instantaneous technique!
Uchiha Shisui's body turned into an afterimage.
He suddenly found that he had no way to deal with water escape.
Especially the fire escape technique that he was good at was just restrained.
Although fire can evaporate water, the prerequisite is that there is more fire than water.
But the problem now is that there is water everywhere.
Uchiha Shisui avoided the waves and stepped on the river surface with his feet.
At this moment, three water needles appeared in front of him without warning.
Uchiha Shisui's hair stood on end and he narrowly avoided Hanekawa's attack.
"The Mangekyō Sharingan is indeed quite good."
Hanekawa praised.
With the help of the Mangekyō Sharingan, Uchiha Shisui and him reached a certain stalemate.
Of course, if the fight continues, he can win with the help of chakra and water escape.
The premise is that Uchiha Shisui does not use his eye technique.
"Besides being able to see through my movements, what else does it do?"
Hanekawa smiled and asked.
"Have."
Uchiha Shisui knew what Hanekawa meant.
After so much discussion, it’s time to get serious.
Susanoo!
Uchiha Shisui's eyes shocked, and a terrifying aura rose into the sky.
A huge green half-skeleton appeared.
Hanekawa glanced over.
It is the first form of Susanoo.
There are no special weapons or ninjutsu, and the means of attack are the simplest physical attacks.
"What ninjutsu is this?"
Asuma Sarutobi's eyes widened.
It was the first time he saw Uchiha Shisui use Susanoo.
“It looks very gloomy.”
Shizune couldn't help but speak as she felt the palpitating breath.
"This is Susanoo."
Uchiha Shisui paused and said, "Be careful, Hanekawa-senpai."
The half-skeleton suddenly clenched its fist and smashed towards Hanekawa.
Instantaneous technique!
Hanekawa stepped back.
With a bang, a huge fist mark suddenly appeared where he had just stood.
Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet Technique!
Hanekawa leaned back, and a water dragon roared out of his mouth.
Uchiha Shisui stood still, and the half-skeleton opened its arms to protect him.
The water dragon hit his arms, splashing water everywhere.
The half-skeleton shook, then blocked the water-style ninjutsu.
Uchiha Shisui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Hanekawa's water jutsu is too powerful, and he was worried that he wouldn't be able to withstand it.
Uchiha Style·Sword Jumping Flame!
Uchiha Shisui held the ninja sword with both hands and chopped it hard.
The flaming blade flew out amid the roar of the wind.
At the same time, the half-skeleton clenched his fists and swung his fists on both sides of the flaming blade.
Its arms look like they are protecting the flaming blade.
The art of melting escape and melting monsters!
Hanekawa formed seals with both hands and used the Dissolution Release technique taught by Mei Terumi for the first time.
A large stream of acid bloomed like a morning glory.
The half-skeleton's arms suddenly accelerated, then he opened his hands and caught the acid in his palms.
But the moment of contact, the strong corrosiveness of the acid caused its palms to be pierced and melted.
Moreover, the remaining force did not diminish, submerging the flaming blade as well.
"how is this possible?"
Uchiha Shisui was shocked when he saw this.
After he activated Susanoo, he tested its offensive and defensive capabilities.
At least it can defend against most ninjutsu.
Even if it cannot be prevented, it will not disappear directly.
"What kind of ninjutsu is this?"
Asuma Sarutobi's mouth twitched.
He felt like he was back in ninja school, not understanding anything.
He had never seen either Susanoo or the Shujutsu.
"No wonder Hanekawa asked us to keep it a secret."
Shizune couldn't help but sigh, "It's really bad luck to be their enemy."
Ninja warfare is an intelligence war. Without knowing the intelligence, Susanoo and Yoshinori can have a huge effect on the enemy.
“Being their teammate is pretty much the same.”
Asuma Sarutobi complained, "There's no way we can catch up to them."
"This is the bloodline limit, dissolution."
Hanekawa said with a smile on his face.
In the original work, Terumi Mei's Dissolution Style: Dissolving Monsters Technique can melt Uchiha Madara's Susanoo.
It was normal for him to melt Uchiha Shisui's Susanoo, not to mention that it was only the first stage of Susanoo, far from its complete form.
"The power of the bloodline limit is indeed impressive."
Uchiha Shisui showed realization on his face.
"Isn't the bloodline limit passed down through blood?"
Sarutobi Asuma asked in surprise, "Hekawa, are you from a great ninja clan?"
"There are two ways to obtain bloodline limit."
Hanekawa looked at him and said, "I learned it by myself."
"what?"
Asuma Sarutobi froze in his place.
What kind of perverted talent is this?
He remembered that Sarutobi Hiruzen had also tried to synthesize bloodline limits, but each attempt ended in failure.
“Really…really amazing!”
Shizune was stunned and said, "Although I have heard that it is possible to synthesize bloodline limits, I don't think anyone can actually do it."
"Still fighting?"
Hanekawa asked as he looked at the half-skeleton that had lost both hands.
"do not fight."
Uchiha Shisui thought for a moment and said, "Unless I use my pupil technique, I won't be able to defeat him."
His most powerful weapons are the Mangekyō Sharingan and Susanoo.
But the eye technique is that of Kotoamatsukami, which has a very long cooldown time. Plus, Hanekawa is a companion, so it is impossible to use it on him.
Uchiha Shisui originally thought that he could defeat him with the help of Susanoo, but who knew that he had learned the Dissolution Release.
"Well."
Hanekawa nodded slightly and stopped there.
After all, it's just a competition, not a life-and-death duel.
And his main purpose was to find out how strong Uchiha Shisui was.
Now it seems that he is very strong indeed. He can be considered an elite among the jonin. He can even deal with the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee.
Uchiha Shisui also possesses Kotoamatsukami.
Although it becomes a one-time eye technique due to its long cooling time, it is still very deterrent.
If it really comes to a life-and-death situation, Uchiha Shisui will not be stingy in using it against the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee.
"When did you learn the Dissolution Escape technique?"
Asuma Sarutobi couldn't help but ask.
"The Dissolution Release comes from the Hidden Mist Village."
Hanekawa explained, "I got it when I negotiated with the Hidden Mist Village."
"and many more!"
Asuma Sarutobi discovered the blind spot and asked, "Did you also obtain the corresponding bloodline limit when negotiating with the Iwagakure Village?"
"good."
Hanekawa stretched out his hand and said, "This is Lava Release."
Chakra surged out, heat waves rolled, and a rotating magma ball appeared.
"No, is this bloodline limit so easy to learn?"
Asuma Sarutobi asked, scratching his head.
"It's Hanekawa-senpai's extraordinary talent."
Uchiha Shisui sighed and said, "We can't learn it."
Asuma Sarutobi couldn't help but wail.
He felt like he would never be able to catch up with Hanekawa in his lifetime.
If you think about it, the gap between them was the smallest when they were in the Ninja School.
Now the gap is getting bigger as we grow older. "I still have one more bloodline limit."
Hanekawa blinked and said, "You will know in two days."
"..."
Asuma Sarutobi, Shisui Uchiha and Shizune looked at each other, all of them speechless.
When will bloodline limits be available wholesale?
It is really outrageous that one person can master three bloodline limits.
"Okay, I'll treat you to dinner."
Hanekawa clapped his hands and said.
"go!"
Asuma Sarutobi perked up and said, "I haven't eaten your cooking for a long time. I wonder if your cooking skills have deteriorated."
"Guaranteed to satisfy you."
Hanekawa said with a smile.
An hour later, in Hatake Sakumo's tent.
Five people sat at the dining table.
"What the hell!"
Asuma Sarutobi ate a piece of chicken and suddenly looked incredulous.
"Is it that exaggerated?"
Hatake Sakumo couldn't help but ask in confusion.
“You will know after you eat it!”
Asuma Sarutobi was at a loss for words, "I don't even know how to describe it!"
Hatake Sakumo, Uchiha Shisui and Shizune picked up a piece of chicken at the same time.
After a few seconds, they all showed the same expression as Asuma Sarutobi.
"How...how did you do this?"
Shizune couldn't help but ask.
"That's what I did."
Hanekawa spread his hands and said.
"..."
Shizune suddenly fell silent.
"Eat more if you like."
Hanekawa said with a smile.
a new day.
Hanekawa and Tsunade both woke up early as a jonin meeting would be held today.
Because it was a war period, the Jonin meetings were held more frequently, once a week or half a month.
Its contents include, first, summarizing the recent battle situation, and second, arranging new tasks.
But today's jonin meeting would be different.
Because Tsunade intends to seize power.
"teacher."
Hanekawa walked into Tsunade's tent, looked around, and saw the rose she had put in the vase.
"Let's go."
Tsunade stretched, stood up, put on her shoes, and walked towards the main tent.
Hanekawa followed closely behind her.
"Tsunade-sama."
When the jonin in the main tent saw Tsunade, they all greeted her.
“What a majestic presence!”
Seeing this, Shimura Danzo couldn't help but speak.
"normal."
Orochimaru, who was standing next to him, said calmly.
"It's been so long, what are you waiting for?"
Shimura Danzo asked in a low voice.
"Wait for the right opportunity."
Orochimaru said calmly, "Don't worry, we still have plenty of time."
Judging from the current situation, it will be difficult to determine the winner between them and the Hidden Cloud Village in a short period of time.
Danzo Shimura wanted to say something but hesitated, but in the end he had no choice but to endure it.
Without Orochimaru, all he could command were his eight Root ninjas.
At nine o'clock in the morning, everyone was present.
In addition to the Jounin from Konoha Village, there are also Rasa and Yekura from the Sand Village.
"I'm here to report on the latest battle situation."
As the advisor, Nara Shikaku was the first to speak.
After listening for a moment, Hanekawa roughly understood the current situation.
Konoha Village and Sand Village have a slight advantage, but overall it is a back and forth battle.
"The next step is to assign tasks."
Orochimaru said calmly, "First, the Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee, it will still be me and Shimura..."
"I have different ideas."
Tsunade interrupted him and said.
"what idea?"
Orochimaru looked at her and asked.
"Hekawa and I will be in charge of the Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee."
Tsunade said solemnly, "It's time to make a change!"
"What do you mean?"
Shimura Danzo asked angrily, "Are you saying that Orochimaru and I can't deal with them?"
Orochimaru also frowned slightly.
Tsunade's sudden attack made him feel something unusual.
"We have been fighting the Hidden Cloud Village for so long. You know whether you can handle it or not."
Tsunade sneered and said unceremoniously.
"You...you're just the deputy commander!"
Shimura Danzo couldn't refute it, so he brought out her identity.
"really."
Tsunade deadpanned, "It's up to the commander to assign the mission."
"Then why don't you step down?"
Shimura Danzo was slightly startled, then suddenly became proud.
"But Konoha Village is not a one-man show, and the commander cannot act on his own."
Tsunade shook her head and said, "We should ask everyone's opinion on who should go."
"you……"
Danzo Shimura had a bad feeling.
"I think what Tsunade-sama said is correct."
Hinata Hizashi spoke.
"This war has been at a stalemate for so long. Perhaps if Lady Tsunade were to take command, it would bring a new chance of victory."
Uchiha Fugaku followed closely and said.
Under Orochimaru's leadership, the Uchiha clan suffered heavy losses, and he had long harbored resentment.
"I agree too."
Hatake Sakumo nodded and said.
The jonin spoke one after another, and soon more than half of them supported Tsunade.
"Do you want to rebel?"
Danzo Shimura couldn't help but take a step back and asked with a grim face.
Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth subconsciously.
He really didn't expect Tsunade to do this.
This teammate really made him feel a stranger today.
Luo Sha and Ye Cang looked at each other.
Although it was a good show, they didn't dare to get involved.
But to them, there is not much difference between Orochimaru and Tsunade.
"very good."
Orochimaru chuckled and said, "Since everyone has agreed, let's do as Tsunade said."
There was no way he could fight Tsunade on the spot.
Under the current circumstances, there is only a temporary compromise.
"Orochimaru!"
Shimura Danzo showed an expression of disbelief on his face.
Are you going to let Tsunade seize power so easily?
"What else do you have in mind?"
Orochimaru glanced at him and asked.
"Tsunade, you're going to regret this!"
Shimura Danzo said angrily.
"I am not a teacher."
Tsunade clenched her fists calmly and said, "If you don't agree, we can have a fight."
"you!"
Shimura Danzo was so angry that his body was shaking.
The sound of breaking wind sounded.
He turned around, lifted the door curtain and left the main tent.
"The meeting continues."
Orochimaru said with a normal expression.
Compared to Danzo Shimura, he is very calm.
Of course, another reason is that he already has a way to deal with it.
End of the meeting.
Orochimaru came to Danzo Shimura's tent.
"Is this the opportunity you were talking about?"
When Danzo Shimura saw him, he asked with great dissatisfaction.
"This is the opportunity."
Orochimaru was not angry.
"Where is the chance?"
Shimura Danzo's face darkened and he asked.
"She's going to deal with the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee. Isn't that exactly our plan?"
Orochimaru asked back.
"Although this is the case, it is too aggrieved!"
Danzo Shimura had wanted to take action before, but he still kept his composure.
Of course, the most important thing was that he was not sure he could defeat Tsunade and Hanekawa.
"Tsunade's behavior today was not in character."
Orochimaru looked thoughtful, "Is it because of Hanekawa?"
He and Tsunade have been teammates for so many years, so he naturally understands her.
She would not do anything like seizing power because she has no desire for power.
If it was because of Hanekawa, that would really surprise him.
Does Tsunade really value her students so much?
"No matter what her reason is, we must not let her be so arrogant!"
Shimura Danzo's face showed a sinister look, "Didn't she want to deal with the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee? I fulfilled her wish!"
"how do you want to do it?"
Orochimaru asked, his eyes narrowed.
"Pass the information to the Hidden Cloud Village."
Danzo Shimura said coldly.
