Chapter 1015: Fatal Steam

Looking at it this way, Hozuki Mangetsu was completely a young version of the Second Mizukage. Not only that, after the Second Mizukage used Steaming Danger Tyrant, he would hide temporarily. After using Steaming Danger Tyrant, the caster would be very weak.

The principle of Steaming Danger Tyrant was as follows: the caster extracted the oil and water from their body to form a child clone. Therefore, the child clone wasn't energy, but a mass of biological oil and water.

Extracting this amount of oil and water from the body, it was no wonder Hozuki Mangetsu's chakra was directly consumed by one-third. But Hozuki Mangetsu wasn't weak; instead, he could use Water Gun Empty Drill Bullet to attack Su Xiao from a distance.

"It seems, it's about time."

Hozuki Mangetsu exhaled a breath. His cheeks were clearly sunken. This was the sequela of being extracted of water in a short time.

"Bad."

Su Xiao turned and rushed toward the distance.

"Hidden Mist Jutsu, explode!"

Hozuki Mangetsu roared, and the child clone, which had expanded to five meters in size, exploded.

Boom!

Rolling hot steam spread out, and a steam explosion affecting two hundred meters around appeared.

Explosion wasn't the most unsolvable point of Steaming Danger Tyrant. The most unsolvable point was that one couldn't attack the child clone with a sharp weapon, otherwise it would explode immediately, and it was at close range. Su Xiao's Intuition had long sensed this point, so he had never used Zhan Long Shan to attack the child clone, but used Blue Steel Shadow to test it.

Hozuki Mangetsu, the successor of the Second Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu. If it were him and Terumi Mei fighting one-on-one, Terumi Mei wouldn't be his opponent. His Steaming Danger Tyrant was stronger than the Second Mizukage's!

Inside the forest, steam rose, and the snow within two hundred meters around all melted. Red light spots could be vaguely seen on the trees. This was the sparks produced after the tree bark was ignited by high temperature, but the trees wouldn't catch fire because the air humidity was too high.

In the moment the Steaming Danger Tyrant exploded, the steam that spread out was at least around 800 degrees. That was a high temperature far exceeding ordinary steam.

Even if the Second Mizukage used Steaming Danger Tyrant, he couldn't make the steam explosion reach such a terrifying high temperature. The water inside the child clone was just very ordinary water in the human body.

But Hozuki Mangetsu did it. The reason why the steam explosion had such a terrifying high temperature wasn't that he improved Steaming Danger Tyrant, but that he combined a type of ninjutsu with Steaming Danger Tyrant. That type of ninjutsu was named 'Hidden Mist Jutsu'.

Hidden Mist Jutsu, the most common ninjutsu of the Hidden Mist Village, a type of ninjutsu that used chakra to create water, evaporated the water to form mist containing chakra, thereby creating a heavy fog environment and ambushing enemies in the fog.

Ordinary water vapor couldn't reach 800 degrees, but what about water vapor containing chakra? The answer was completely feasible.

It sounded very simple, but Hozuki Mangetsu spent nearly ten years to achieve this point.

A pool of water on the ground was boiling. Soon, this pool of water stood up, forming a human shape. It was Hozuki Mangetsu.

"Whoo~"

Hozuki Mangetsu exhaled a large mouthful of hot air. His palms were pressed together, and the high-temperature water vapor around gathered together. A smiling face formed on that mass of water vapor, and the body shape gradually shrank.

Patter, patter...

Ice cubes the size of rice grains fell from the sky. This was hail formed after the alternation of cold and heat.

The temperature around gradually dropped, and the body shape of the child clone shrank rapidly, turning back to the 1.2-meter body shape, floating in mid-air.

"Truly a climate suitable for battle. Steaming Danger Tyrant shrank to the initial explosion body shape so quickly."

Hozuki Mangetsu's skin was somewhat red. This was caused by high temperature. Although he used hydration to solve the impact force produced by Steaming Danger Tyrant, high temperature would affect him. This was the price of strengthening Steaming Danger Tyrant.

The Second Mizukage could use Steaming Danger Tyrant almost without limit, but Hozuki Mangetsu could use it at most 10 times. After 10 times, the high temperature would begin to damage his brain and organs. As for staying away before 'Steaming Danger Tyrant' exploded, Hozuki Mangetsu had never thought so. He wouldn't treat the enemy as a retard.

Bang.

Mud splashed, and a large pit appeared on the slippery ground. A figure walked out from the large pit. It was Su Xiao, with counter-attack shields floating beside him.

At the moment Steaming Danger Tyrant exploded, Su Xiao used a dozen sword lights to slash a deep pit on the ground. After jumping into the deep pit, he immediately kicked the deep pit to collapse, burying himself in the mud to resist the high temperature.

The counter-attack shield could block part of the high temperature, but the counter-attack shield wasn't a whole. The powerful impact produced by the explosion caused the hot steam to spray into the gaps of the counter-attack shield.

Su Xiao walked out from the dirt pit, and the counter-attack shields around him expanded. The scorching temperature inside the counter-attack shields spread, and the fine sweat beads on his face were evaporated by the cold air.

"A smart way to solve it, but... can you be this fast every time."

Hozuki Mangetsu waved his hand, and the child clone rushed toward Su Xiao. This thing was abnormally disgusting. Slashing would cause an immediate explosion, spraying hot oil. Not paying attention wouldn't work either. This thing would accumulate heat rapidly when moving. The higher the heat, the larger the body, and the more water vapor it contained. When the water vapor content reached the critical point, this thing would explode.

The power of Steaming Danger Tyrant wasn't in the explosion. The oil on its outer layer meant there wouldn't be too strong pressure inside. The terrifying point of Steaming Danger Tyrant was the high temperature of the water vapor at the moment of explosion.

Fortunately, Steaming Danger Tyrant couldn't explode continuously. At least when the Second Mizukage used it, it was like this. Every explosion required a period of time to accumulate heat. This period of time was the best opportunity for Su Xiao to defeat Hozuki Mangetsu.

The enemy's information Su Xiao already understood. Now he could finally rest assured and get close to the enemy. Moreover, time was tight now. Amu couldn't hold on for long over there, and the time required for Steaming Danger Tyrant to accumulate heat wasn't long either.

Just as Su Xiao was preparing to rush toward Hozuki Mangetsu, his pupils shrank.

The reason Su Xiao had this reaction was because that child clone expanded to five meters in size in just 3 seconds. That was the critical point of the steam explosion.

"Ignoring the heat accumulation time..."

Su Xiao immediately controlled the counter-attack shields to wrap himself inside. Just as he wanted to use sword lights to slash a large pit on the ground, the child clone had already exploded.

"Hidden Mist Jutsu."

While Hozuki Mangetsu used the Hidden Mist Jutsu, he had already hydrated.

Pfft~

Boom!

The steam explosion spread, instantly spreading to a 200-meter range. The trees wrapped in hot steam were covered with bright red light spots. This was the sparks produced after the tree bark was ignited by high temperature, but the trees wouldn't catch fire because the air humidity was too high.

Water vapor of a full 800 degrees wrapped the counter-attack shields inside. The forest became dead silent.

When the temperature of the steam dropped to around one hundred degrees, Hozuki Mangetsu, who was in a hydrated state, formed seals again. Just as he formed seals, his footsteps staggered.

The steam gathered rapidly, and the huge smiling face in the steam looked a bit ferocious.

"Water Clone."

Hozuki Mangetsu split into five ordinary water clones. He prepared to use these five water clones to forcibly cool down Steaming Danger Tyrant, thereby immediately starting the next steam explosion.

The five water clones ran toward Steaming Danger Tyrant quickly. They crashed directly into Steaming Danger Tyrant, clear water splashing. The cold clear water caused the body shape of Steaming Danger Tyrant to shrink rapidly.

"Three more times, should be able to kill him."
