Chapter 221

The ninja cat named Mao Zhizhu stood upright on the arena with both legs, staring at Mizunuki Ryosuke on the opposite side with a burning gaze.

It had to be said that this Mao Zhizhu was also quite characteristic in appearance; he belonged to the same species as Boss Cat—Li Hua Cat.

Not only was his body a size larger than other ninja cats, but he also left a tuft of oblique bangs on his forehead that were different from other cats.

Mao Zhizhu remembered what his master, Boss Cat, had found him alone to say before.

"Mao Zhizhu, next the clan will send you to fight against humans."

"Remember not to be brave!"

"If you see the situation is not right, just admit defeat."

"That human is very strong!"

Boss Cat looked at his apprentice with an extremely serious expression.

As a cat clan Elder, Boss Cat's vision and knowledge were naturally not comparable to ordinary ninja cats; when he was young, Boss Cat had also traveled in the ninja world, so he knew the terror of humans well.

Plus he had already witnessed Ryosuke's strength in Meitaro's consciousness fragments before.

So even if he arranged for Mao Zhizhu, who was among the best in the clan, to fight against Ryosuke, Boss Cat had to give his apprentice a preventive shot in advance.

"Don't worry, Master."

Mao Zhizhu responded seriously on the surface.

Seeing this, Boss Cat nodded with satisfaction.

Only what Boss Cat didn't know was that the arrogance in his apprentice's heart was far more serious than he imagined.

At this time, the young Mao Zhizhu had not yet gone to the ninja world to experience the beating of reality; in Mao Zhizhu's cognition.

Ninja cats were the most powerful race in the world.

And Boss Cat's words instead aroused Mao Zhizhu's unyielding curiosity.

So Mao Zhizhu made up his mind that he must defeat the human opposite in the battle and let his master see.

He, Mao Zhizhu, was inevitably the number one genius of the cat clan who would lead the ninja cat clan to dominate the ninja world!

"Master, just watch!"

"I will prove on this arena that ninja cats are the strongest overlords in the ninja world!"

Thinking like this on the side, Mao Zhizhu raised one of his claws and squeezed his claws tightly into a ball of fur.

Ryosuke naturally did not know about Mao Zhizhu's inner activities.

After the two stepped onto the arena, thunderous shouts erupted from the audience seats below.

"Ahhhhh!!!!!"

"Mao Zhizhu!! Look, it's Lord Mao Zhizhu!!"

"Ahhh, Lord Mao Zhizhu!!! My male god!!!!"

"Look, he looked over at me!!"

"..."

Of course, these cheers were not aimed at Ryosuke.

It seemed that this ninja cat named Mao Zhizhu was not low in popularity within the cat clan.

"Human, be careful."

"Because next..."

"You might die!"

The ninja cat named Mao Zhizhu raised his head, squinting at Mizunuki Ryosuke with one eye; while speaking, Mao Zhizhu flicked the hair on his forehead with his claws.

This action, matched with this tone, had quite a bit of the style of the protagonists of Hong Kong comics in the 70s and 80s.

Looking at the ninja cat on the opposite side, Ryosuke revealed a somewhat strange gaze.

He never expected that the opponent before him would be of the "Chuunibyou" type.

"Ahhhh!!!"

"Lord Mao Zhizhu!!!"

"..."

Mao Zhizhu's tone and actions immediately caused several female ninja cats in the audience to faint.

Mao Zhizhu's momentum and actions on the arena made the female cats in the audience faint and the male cats jealous...

But this Chuunibyou posture, in Mizunuki Ryosuke's eyes, was somewhat unbearable to look at.

On Mao Zhizhu, Mizunuki Ryosuke remembered the style of his own Chuunibyou period in high school in his previous life, and the corners of his eyes twitched a little.

"Human, die!"

As the words fell, Mao Zhizhu's body suddenly began to expand, turning into a "Devil Muscle Cat" about three meters high and one point five meters wide.

After posing another (chcc) pose that looked extremely "spirited," Mao Zhizhu showed his sharp claws, and his body attacked Ryosuke directly with the afterimage of high-speed movement.

Seeing the Yang Release secret technique used by Mao Zhizhu, Mizunuki Ryosuke shifted his gaze toward Boss Cat standing on the side.

It looked like the opponent before him was walking on a path similar to Boss Cat.

Since he had already learned the origin of the Land of Cats, it was actually not difficult to guess the abilities of these ninja cats.

At present, the ninja cats did not show special ninjutsu characteristics.

Instead, according to the characteristics Ryosuke saw from the large orange cat, ninja cats hated water and feared fire. Thinking in this direction, ninja cats with lush fur should also avoid Lightning Release.

In terms of ninjutsu, ninja cats should be extremely unskilled.

And the ninja cats in the Land of Cats inherited Yin-Yang Release from the Sage of Six Paths, so the abilities of ninja cats should mostly be inseparable from Yin-Yang Release techniques.

Based on this, Ryosuke guessed.

Even within the cat clan, there should be few people who could be proficient in both Yin and Yang techniques; after all, being greedy and not chewing well was not an empty phrase.

So ninja cats should generally choose one as their main practice and the other as an auxiliary.

The previous Boss Cat, and the Mao Zhizhu before him, should both be cats who mainly practiced Yang Release; after all, it could also be judged from physical characteristics.

For ninja cats who mainly practice Yang Release, their main combat power should be body and melee combat.

Although his body became burly, Mao Zhizhu's speed and agility were still extremely terrifying, simply like a hurricane.

In the blink of an eye, Mao Zhizhu's sharp claws had already cut toward Ryosuke's vital points.

Facing Mao Zhizhu's active attack, a trace of interest also flashed in Ryosuke's eyes.

Since the ninja cat before him was a master of using Yang Release, he just happened to take the opportunity to experiment with the Yin-Yang Release inheritance he had obtained not long ago on these ninja cats.

Thinking of this, Ryosuke raised his hand to block.

At first glance, Ryosuke's arm seemed like a rib under a bone-chopping knife under Mao Zhizhu's sharp claws, and it would be cut off by the sharp claws in the next second.

Seeing this, a trace of contempt flashed in Mao Zhizhu's eyes; in his eyes, the Ryosuke before him was as fragile as a piece of white paper and could not block his attack.

"Creak!!!"

But soon, a harsh sound came from the part where the two contacted.

The tactile sensation like cutting into a diamond coming from the claws, and the huge force coming from Ryosuke's arm, made Mao Zhizhu's expression greatly shocked.

"What?!"

He looked closely again, and it turned out that a layer of ice armor had appeared on Ryosuke's arm at some point.

"Bang!!!"

Before he could react, Ryosuke had already turned his hand and smashed a punch firmly onto Mao Zhizhu's chin.

A seemingly ordinary punch actually made a sonic boom!

The terrifying huge force came from Ryosuke's fist, actually smashing Mao Zhizhu away with one punch.

Mao Zhizhu's burly body rotated three hundred and sixty degrees in the air, then fell to the ground head-first, unable to climb up for a long time.

Yang Release. Strength of a Hundred.

That's right, this was exactly the huge force that Senju Tsunade had used in the original work.
