Chapter 312: A Shocking Sword

For a time, seeing the partial Tailed Beast Han being "driven" to his side, Danzo was cursing in his heart.

A Waterfall ninja chasing a Tailed Beast with a kunai—such a thing that challenged Danzo's cognition was happening right before his eyes, which left the well-informed Danzo dumbfounded.

Originally, Danzo's calculations were clicking away.

He had intended to let this group of suddenly appearing Waterfall ninja be the scapegoats to pin down the maddened Han, while he stood on the side, resting and waiting, gathering energy for a powerful sealing ninjutsu; once the sealing technique was ready, he would kick this group of Waterfall ninja away and lure the Five-Tails over to seal it.

But now, the sudden change in the situation had disrupted Danzo's arrangements.

In fact, Danzo still had the possibility of retreating unscathed.

As long as he bit the bullet and immediately stopped the sealing technique, then sacrificed a few Root elite ninja to cover the retreat, he could lead the others away.

Although such a posture and choice were somewhat disgraceful, who was Danzo? If he cared about face, how could he possess such a "title" as the "Darkness of the Ninja World."

*Cough, cough*...

Of course, I am not saying Danzo is shameless.

It's just that now, Danzo had completely given up the intention of stopping.

People are like this; once the door of greed is opened, it is completely impossible to stop.

Danzo at this moment had been blinded by the benefits of capturing the Five-Tails, and seeing that the situation was not right, he still did not intend to stop.

"You few, go hold it off!"

Danzo immediately ordered the few Root elites beside him.

"Yes!"

Hearing this, the few Root elites nodded one after another.

Subsequently, the few charged fearlessly at the crimson monster, using their trump card means, attempting to buy time for Danzo.

It could be seen that these few Root ninja were elites, skilled in using a combined attack method, and for a time, they were actually fighting back and forth with this maddened beast.

Not to mention causing any trouble for the partial Tailed Beast Han, holding it off for three to five minutes was not a problem.

Mizunuki Ryosuke watched the brilliant performance of the few, a strange look flashing in his eyes.

People who could be recorded in the history of the ninja world were indeed not ordinary people; Danzo's skill in training his subordinates could also be considered unique.

But how could Mizunuki Ryosuke let Danzo be so satisfied?

"Everyone move aside, I'm coming!"

Instantly, a roar made the few Root elites, who were cooperating seamlessly and complementing each other, freeze.

A Root ninja turned to look, only to see the "hard man" who had just been chasing the partial Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, currently sprinting over while carrying a giant blade made of water.

At first glance, the momentum on this "hard man" was incredibly terrifying.

The Waterfall Style: Water Sword technique had been transformed in his hands into Waterfall Style: Water "Giant" Sword.

A giant water blade made entirely of liquid, a full five meters long, was dragged on the ground like this; he charged toward this place with a fierce face, quite having the posture of "if a god stands in the way, kill the god; if a Buddha stands in the way, kill the Buddha."

The few Root ninja were all stunned and hurriedly moved aside, breaking up their combined formation.

Because the young Waterfall ninja's ninjutsu looked too "terrifying," the few all thought this would be a powerful attack, so they all dodged, afraid of being caught in the aftermath.

Plus, the "heroic posture" of this person chasing the Tailed Beast around earlier was still fresh in their minds, making the few Root ninja feel a hint of respect, and they all gave up their offensive positions.

So, taking advantage of this fleeting moment, the young Waterfall ninja used a Body Flicker Technique to arrive beside the partial Tailed Beast Han.

"Watch the sword!"

He roared and raised the giant water sword to smash toward the head of the crimson monster.

The offensive posture was very smooth, the young man's figure was very swift, and even the partial Tailed Beast Han did not react.

As the hand rose, the blade fell.

"BANG!!!"

After a muffled collision, water splashed in all directions.

As everyone knows, excluding special attribute Water Release ninjutsu, the power of general Water Release ninjutsu depends on two aspects.

Large-scale Water Release ninjutsu like Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave and Great Waterfall Technique all rely on the quality brought by an astonishing quantity to cause damage.

And ninjutsu similar to Water Severing Wave and Hard Vortex Water Blade are those that compress water flow to the extreme, forming astonishing cutting power to cause damage.

These two methods are the most common damage types for Water Release ninjutsu.

And the secret Waterfall ninjutsu, Waterfall Style: Water Sword, belongs to the ninjutsu that compresses water flow to cause damage.

Using high pressure to compress water into the shape of a "sword," using the astonishing cutting power of high-pressure water flow to cause damage—this is the essence of this technique.

But the Waterfall Style: Water "Giant" Sword previously modified by Mizunuki Ryosuke directly abandoned the cutting power after water flow compression; although the volume looked much larger and was full of oppressive force, the actual power had dropped by N levels.

In other words, the so-called "Water Giant Sword" was really just water of the same mass.

Such an attack, if placed on an ordinary person, might also smash them half to death.

But the one here was a partial Tailed Beast Jinchuriki; such an existence was something that had completely transcended the concept of "human."

Such an attack was no different from scratching an itch.

Silence, incomparable silence.

The crimson beast stretched out its claws, scratched its head that had been hit by the water giant sword and felt neither pain nor itch, and tilted its neck.

Not only the monster wearing the crimson cloak, but everyone was immersed in this "shocking" sword and could not extricate themselves.

Just this?

So all this time, you were just playing around?

Clearly, after restraining the aura of the full-body Tailed Beast and the Rinnegan, the beast, which had no reason, also failed to recognize that this was the dangerous existence that had just been chasing it around.

The killing monster wearing the crimson cloak lightly swung the sharp claws in its hand toward the human before it.

It was just that the claw strike, which should have easily torn through flesh like a hot knife through butter, seemed to have collided with hard steel.

Subsequently.

"Bang!"

A figure flew backward like a cannonball.

"BOOM!!!"

The smoke and dust kicked up as he landed covered his figure. **CHAPTER 587**
