Chapter 180

At the same time as the bone sword collided with the Totsuka Blade, the surrounding ground instantly shattered, rock fragments exploded toward the surroundings like bullets, and a large amount of dust also filled the air directly.

Because Shengzai was fighting Senju Hashirama with Gundams, Terumi Mei was still locked in a small dark room, so she had not seen Shengzai's White Bone Asura, so she was also shocked by this technique at this moment.

At the same time, what surprised her was that she didn't expect that Shengzai had used such a high-level technique, but it was still blocked by Uchiha Itachi.

Was that huge orange-red figure before also an ability of the Sharingan? The bloodline of the Uchiha clan is so strong, how on earth were they exterminated in the first place!

Accompanied by the White Bone Asura manipulated by Shengzai waving the bone sword in his hand again, a powerful gust of wind instantly swept the whole scene, and also directly blew away the dust that filled the surroundings.

However, when all the dust dissipated, looking at the empty space where there was no one left, only a few bloodstains left behind, Shengzai and Terumi Mei were both stunned at the same time.

On the thorn bone forest surrounding the surroundings, a big hole appeared at this moment, and around the big hole, there were black flames that were still burning continuously.

Terumi Mei looked at the black flames in front of her and just wanted to reach out to check, but was blocked by Shengzai beside her: "Don't touch it randomly. This is one of the Mangekyo Sharingan's dojutsu, Amaterasu.

This thing burns everything, and once you are entangled by this kind of flame, it is difficult to extinguish it.

Do you remember the severe burns on the Fourth Mizukage before? It was caused by Amaterasu. Even with the recovery ability of a jinchuriki, he ended up like that. Think about what would happen if an ordinary ninja got hit by this."

Hearing Shengzai's words, Terumi Mei also hurriedly retracted her hand, and then looked at the Uchiha Itachi duo who had disappeared and said: "What should we do? Are we going to chase?"

Honestly, at the beginning, Terumi Mei thought that she and Shengzai joined forces, and it was a sure thing to deal with two rogue ninjas.

But no one expected that Uchiha Itachi's strength would far exceed her expectations.

Even for Kisame who fused with Samehada, if she, Terumi Mei, fought one-on-one with the opponent, she would not have the certainty of winning.

"Let's forget it this time. Although Amaterasu has the law of not burning people to death, it is quite a counter to the Edo Tensei technique.

And as Uchiha Itachi said, we don't have much conflict with them. They are looking for trouble with Konoha, so we don't need to be Konoha's thugs for free."

And just as Shengzai and Terumi Mei chose to give up and chose to turn back to the Hidden Mist Village, Uchiha Itachi and Kisame on the other side had already escaped a thousand meters away.

"It seems they don't have the intention to fight us to the death. Otherwise, we shouldn't have been able to escape so easily.

I originally thought it was just simple intelligence gathering, but as a result, not only Amaterasu, but even Susanoo was used."

Hearing Uchiha Itachi's words, Hoshigaki Kisame on the side was a bit noncommittal.

After the short battle just now, he admitted that Kaguya Shengzai was indeed very strong, but Uchiha Itachi's strength was also not weak.

Kaguya Shengzai has the so-called White Bone Asura, and Uchiha Itachi also has Susanoo. Moreover, besides that, Itachi also has the Amaterasu technique. If they really fought regardless of everything, Uchiha Itachi might not lose to that Kaguya Shengzai.

As for the Fifth Mizukage Terumi Mei, to put it bluntly, although his, Hoshigaki Kisame's, chance of winning against Shengzai is not high, he still has a lot of certainty against a mere Fifth Mizukage.

"Don't underestimate the opponent too much, Kisame. Whether it's Susanoo or Amaterasu, the burden on me is not small.

And I can feel that the Kaguya Shengzai just now still had a lot of reservations, so if we continue to fight, it will likely be us who are defeated.

Kaguya Shengzai, he is really a ninja who cannot be underestimated, but why have I never heard his name before with such strength."

Regarding this point, Kisame, as a former Hidden Mist ninja, has more say. Although he doesn't know much about Shengzai, as a former ninja of the same village, he knows more than Itachi.

"He was a very low-key guy before. The style of Hidden Mist ninjas is the law of the jungle. Every Hidden Mist ninja stands out by stepping on the corpses of a large number of companions, but that guy is different from others.

But even if he is different from ordinary Hidden Mist ninjas in my memory, I don't remember him being so strong."

"In other words, he has been pretending before?" Uchiha Itachi wondered.

"Maybe. That guy's brain is different from other guys in Hidden Mist who only know how to kill.

If he hadn't died early back then, maybe the bloody policy of the Fourth Mizukage wouldn't have happened..."

Recalling some past events, Kisame was also rarely a bit lonely. He was undoubtedly the most qualified ninja, always putting tasks first and never mixing any private feelings into tasks.

"Sorry, did I make you recall some unpleasant past events?" Seemingly seeing Kisame's bad mood, Uchiha Itachi took the initiative to apologize.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I am no longer a ninja of Hidden Mist now. But since such a thing happened, are we still going to Konoha now?"

Kisame is a smart man. He knows very well that the reason Itachi went to Konoha is not just simple intelligence gathering.

But still that sentence, he quite appreciates Uchiha Itachi, so as long as it doesn't violate his principles, he is still quite willing to help Itachi with some small things.

"Let's go for a trip. After all, we are already here, and that Kaguya Shengzai also makes me a bit concerned. Going to Konoha should also be able to collect more intelligence about his fighting."

Thinking of his foolish little brother, Uchiha Itachi wiped away the blood left in his eyes because of using "Amaterasu," and still decided to go to Konoha to show his face.

"I hope Konoha also has guys who can fight. Just now, I was filled with anger. If there are a few guys who don't know how to live or die running out to let me vent after arriving in Konoha, that would be really great."

Itachi and Kisame did not consider whether Shengzai and the others would inform Konoha of their news.

But even if they informed, the two probably wouldn't care too much. In order to support Sasuke, Uchiha Itachi's trip to Konoha was imperative.

As for Kisame, he believed that with the three Sannin of Konoha leaving the village, White Fang dead, and now even the old Third Hokage gone, the once prosperous Konoha Village had long been declining.

Now, let alone keeping him and Uchiha Itachi, I'm afraid that in the entire Konoha, there is no one who can beat them.

On the other side, Terumi Mei did indeed inform Konoha Village that Uchiha Itachi and the others were preparing to go to Konoha.

Not for anything else, on the one hand, such intelligence can just buy Konoha a not-so-small favor, and on the other hand, it is also to find some trouble for Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame. After all, women are very vengeful.
