Chapter 115: The Drawbacks of the Hidden Mist Jutsu
Suikazan Fuguki spat out a massive amount of water from his mouth.
With the active cooperation of Samehada, it superimposed to form a gigantic tsunami, surging toward Yamanaka Chujiu.
The violent tsunami attacked, like a doomsday disaster blotting out the sky and covering the sun.
Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave is inherently a terrifying Water Style capable of creating a lake on flat ground; when unleashed by a ninja like Suikazan Fuguki, who possesses the massive chakra reserves of Samehada, its power breaks through the heavens.
It is said that even in a parched desert, it can briefly form a surging, wavy lake.
And on the East Front battlefield, which is close to the sea and dense with rivers and lakes, it is entirely capable of submerging forests and turning the battlefield into a vast ocean. This book is first published on the Zhui Shu Shen Qi Tian Tian Kan Xiao Shuo app, ⓣⓣⓚⓢ. ⓣⓦ, which is super easy to use, providing you with an error-free and non-disordered reading experience.
This is the combat environment that the ninja of Kirigakure are most adept at, which can be described as killing many birds with one stone.
Supported by an endless supply of chakra, the Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave layered its water volume, just like real sea waves, crashing over one wave higher than the last.
The sound of the water was as thunderous as a roar, rushing past with menacing momentum.
Whatever large trees or forests, whatever hills or small mountains, were all swallowed by the rolling natural disaster, turning into an endless sea surface.
On a boundless sea surface, Yamanaka Chujiu, Orochimaru, and Might Duy stood on the water, confronting the four Mist Ninja Swordsmen.
In the distance behind them stood the three stunned youngsters.
Facing the great power of the changing world, the three old-hand Konoha Ninja expressed that it didn't matter, as it wasn't their first time seeing it.
But the three youngsters were seeing it for the first time; they were so shocked their pupils dilated, they were dazed, with blank expressions, having completely lost the ability to speak.
Might Duy had thick nerves, so he gave a thumbs up and praised: "Oh! This move is super amazing!"
Orochimaru clicked his tongue in wonder: "A terrifying amount of chakra; even I have to admit I am inferior."
"Owner of Samehada, Suikazan Fuguki, you are qualified to become my test subject; I will arrange for you and Nii Yugito to be in the same room."
Orochimaru's gaze was burning, making Suikazan Fuguki's hair stand on end.
He shouted: "Juzo, do it!"
Biwa Juzo quickly formed hand seals, whipping up layers of thick fog; the figures of the four Mist Ninja flickered in and out of sight, and soon they were completely invisible.
Orochimaru sneered: "Hidden Mist Jutsu?"
"Truly old-fashioned and unoriginal."
He quickly formed hand seals with both hands and suddenly spat out a hurricane with an extremely large coverage area.
"Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!"
Wind Style: Great Breakthrough originally didn't have much lethality, but Orochimaru mixed a large number of Wind Blades into the wind, instantly turning decay into magic, and its destructive power soared from C-rank to A-rank.
The hurricane-like Ninjutsu instantly blew away most of the thick fog, and the sky-filling Wind Blades battered the Mist Ninja, leaving them in a sorry state.
The three Mist Ninja glared at Biwa Juzo, and Biwa Juzo helplessly increased his chakra to recreate the thick fog.
This time, he infused chakra into the mist, further strengthening the visual obstruction effect and also gaining stronger resistance to Wind Style.
"You really are persistent."
"Then I'll just finish off you, the caster!"
Orochimaru spat out the Kusanagi Sword and walked into the thick fog while holding the sword; his target was precisely Biwa Juzo, who was creating the fog.
Might Duy had no fear of the thick fog where one could not see their own fingers, and he rushed in without hesitation.
The thick fog obscured his vision, but it could not block his perception of the airflow; as long as the enemy approached him, he could instantly capture them and end the battle.
Yamanaka Chujiu knew that Teacher Orochimaru was adept at snake-like perception, and he also knew that Might Duy was adept at fighting with his eyes closed, so he had not the slightest worry about the two of them rushing into the thick fog.
Through the emotional perception of the Mind Severing Realm, he could firmly lock onto the four Mist Ninja, but he would not rush into the thick fog.
The thick fog created by the Mist Ninja would also block their own eyes.
Yamanaka Chujiu could completely lock onto the Mist Ninja, so why wouldn't he conduct precision strikes on the enemy from outside the thick fog?
This is what you call a truly humiliating strike.
In the thick fog, it was not only impossible to see one's own fingers, but sound was also absorbed by the fog, quiet to an eerie degree.
But the rising and falling of the sea beneath their feet made a swishing noise, which was unsettling.
Kirigakure is filled with thick fog all year round; the Mist Ninja are all accustomed to this environment, and through special ear training, they can hear the most subtle sounds.
In the final analysis, the Silent Killing Technique of Kirigakure is just a blind person dragging an enemy into their most familiar environment, then bullying the opponent for not being adapted to fighting with eyes closed.
Orochimaru was bold because of his high skill; he deliberately used the Kusanagi Sword to make a swishing sound on the water surface, with no intention of hiding himself at all.
"Even if you are Orochimaru of the Legendary Sannin, you shouldn't be this arrogant."
Biwa Juzo's voice came from all directions; he was very unhappy with Orochimaru's self-exposing behavior.
How much did he look down on them?
Orochimaru shook his head: "Kirigakure has been closed off for many years and has become a complete frog in a well."
"Do you know what the Legendary Sannin represents?"
Before Biwa Juzo could speak, Suikazan Fuguki interrupted: "There is no need to know, because you will die here today."
"Throat, spine, liver, carotid artery, heart... Orochimaru, where do you think I will attack?"
"Oh hehehe..."
Orochimaru stuck out his tongue to lick his cheek and walked toward Biwa Juzo: "You know nothing about snakes!"
Biwa Juzo in the thick fog broke out in a cold sweat; he heard the sound of Orochimaru's footsteps.
That unhurried swishing sound of stepping on water was coming straight at him; he changed his position repeatedly, but Orochimaru could always change direction at the first moment.
As if he could see him through the thick fog.
"How can this be?"
Biwa Juzo was terrified; could Orochimaru really see things in the thick fog?
If this were true, wouldn't his use of the Hidden Mist Jutsu be trapping himself?
Orochimaru's voice rang out: "Oh hehehe, I smell the scent of fear."
"Who is it that is afraid?"
"Hmm, this scent should be Biwa Juzo; your fear... is truly pure."
"Biwa Juzo, you guessed right, I can see you within the thick mist!"
"Not only can I see you, I can smell you through my nose and feel the vibrations you cause through my skin."
"Ridiculous Mist Ninja, actually thinking of competing with my, Orochimaru's, infrared vision, molecular olfaction, and vibration sensing just by relying on a pair of ears—overestimating your own capabilities!"
Biwa Juzo knew he shouldn't be afraid, he knew Orochimaru was intimidating him, but the fear grew from the bottom of his heart and could not be suppressed no matter what.
Within Yamanaka Chujiu's Mind Severing Realm, Biwa Juzo's emotions were jumping about; he playfully teased and provoked them with Thought Threads, letting the fear be constantly magnified, and magnified again.
Snap!
Biwa Juzo's emotions snapped: "Fuguki, save me! Come save me quickly!"
Suikazan Fuguki was dumbfounded, having no idea what had happened, but he was the leader of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist after all; he could not ignore a plea for help from a companion he had spent years with.
But the next second, Suikazan Fuguki's expression changed drastically as he rolled to the side to dodge.
Although he had dodged with all his might, he was still grazed on the neck by a Wind Blade, nearly having his carotid artery severed or even being directly decapitated.
It was not that Suikazan Fuguki's strength was poor, nor that the Wind Blade was too fast; it was purely because by the time the Wind Blade was discovered, the distance was already less than two meters.
As a Mist Ninja, Suikazan Fuguki felt for the first time that the sensory obstruction of the Hidden Mist Jutsu was so terrifying!
