Chapter 330: , a duel between peaks

Mizunuki Ryosuke does not panic; he quickly forms three seals with hand speed that leaves afterimages.

Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation!

The highest-level Fire Style is displayed by him, and terrifying high temperature brews between his mouth and nose.

"Boom!!!"

A flame bomb with a diameter of over fifty meters, like a meteorite, is spat out by him.

"So, so strong..."

Tsunade, who has been carried on Ryosuke's back, murmurs to herself in a daze.

Such Fire Style attainment is probably on par with her master, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.

(A little praise for the Third Hokage, to round off Kishimoto's setting of the Third being the strongest Hokage.)

Before the flame bomb arrives, Hanzō of the Salamander has already sensed that something is wrong.

He stops the move of continuing to hook Mizunuki Ryosuke with the scythe and forms seals with movements that are also impossible to see clearly.

The moment Ryosuke releases Great Fire Annihilation, Hanzō of the Salamander's chest also expands slightly, opening his mouth to spit out a giant mud bomb!

Salamander: Mud Iron Cannon Jutsu!

This is a body talent of Hanzō of the Salamander's summoning beast, the wild salamander.

Wild salamanders usually live in swamps full of mud.

Over time, the salamander has acquired the ability to spit mud bombs.

The mud bomb is neither a rock bomb nor a water bomb; it has unique composite attributes, having the weight and density characteristics of Earth Style, and the attributes of Water Style, which can be considered a natural counter to Fire Style.

So at this moment, even if Hanzō of the Salamander's Mud Iron Cannon Jutsu is not as large as Ryosuke's Great Fire Annihilation, it has an attribute advantage.

"Boom!"

The flame bomb and the mud bomb collide in the air; with the bursting of the flame bomb, the flowing flames and mud in the air fly in all directions.

Mizunuki Ryosuke takes the opportunity to break free from the hook on his waist, pulls back rapidly, and at the same time forms seals with one hand, summoning twenty-four prisms formed by ice.

The twenty-four ice mirrors form a perfect camouflage around Mizunuki Ryosuke's body.

Secret Technique: Demonic Mirror Illusion.

Under the camouflage of Demonic Mirror Illusion, the two disappear from the spot instantly.

Since he only needs to stall for time to solve the problem, Ryosuke naturally does not need to fight Hanzō of the Salamander to the death.

Ryosuke already has enough understanding of Hanzō's abilities.

Unpredictable close-combat ability, comprehensive and unique ninja arts, and the group poison gas that has always been held back.

These constitute Hanzō's comprehensive and terrifying combat power.

At this moment, continuing to fight will likely lead to real fire, so Ryosuke chooses to use the camouflage of Demonic Mirror Illusion to gain enough time.

Ninja, Taijutsu, Genjutsu.

These are the three elements of ninja that every ninja is familiar with.

Whether it is ninja arts or genjutsu, in the current Ninja World where the Six Paths have not appeared, Ryosuke is confident that he is already at the peak of the Ninja World.

But in terms of taijutsu, although he has a series of ninja arts blessings like ice armor and monstrous strength, Ryosuke cannot be considered weak, but compared to some taijutsu peak experts, he is still inferior.

Of course, this "inferior" is also compared to top taijutsu experts like Hanzō of the Salamander or the Third Raikage; if it were ordinary powerhouses, Ryosuke would naturally not be afraid.

As long as the Eight Inner Gates do not appear, the taijutsu of Hanzō of the Salamander in his prime is enough to dominate the Ninja World!

Strong Iaijutsu techniques, plus impeccable agility and strength, he fears no one in close combat.

And Ryosuke has the defense of ice armor; when facing Hanzō, although Ryosuke will not be defeated, he can only be reduced to being beaten passively.

As the saying goes, long defense will inevitably lead to loss, so once he compares taijutsu in close combat, Ryosuke will inevitably fall into a disadvantage.

Therefore, from beginning to end, Ryosuke's strategy is to open the distance and avoid close combat.

At the same time, he relies on this to let his ninja arts and genjutsu get room to play.

And Hanzō clearly understands this truth, so he has been biting Ryosuke tightly, wanting to drag Ryosuke into close combat.

In the normal state where trump cards and big moves are not released, the fight between the two depends on whether they can open the distance.

And before Mizunuki Ryosuke started fighting, he had already transmitted orders to Kisame through consciousness.

Otherwise, seeing Ryosuke and Hanzō of the Salamander fighting, Hoshigaki Kisame would have long since been fighting with the Rain Ninja.

At this moment, since things have changed, Ryosuke takes advantage of the time gap gained by Demonic Mirror Illusion to issue a "retreat" order to Hoshigaki Kisame first.

And he also briefly explained the cause and effect of the matter to Hoshigaki Kisame, asking him to bring the news to the remaining two "trusted aides" to avoid causing any trouble.

Seeing this, Kisame does not hesitate, leaving Hanzō's mansion in the chaos and executing the retreat order issued by Ryosuke.

At the same time, under Demonic Mirror Illusion, Ryosuke and Tsunade also gain a chance to breathe.

Tsunade looks at the ice mirrors around her with some surprise; as intelligent as she is, she has already guessed the effect of this technique.

Since he knows that Demonic Mirror Illusion will reveal flaws due to "sound" when exposed to the rain, Ryosuke naturally avoids this weakness...

Although most of the environment here is in an open-air state, there are still many places that cannot be invaded by rainwater.

At this time, Ryosuke has already brought Tsunade under the eaves of a Rain Ninja building.

Through the perfect camouflage of Demonic Mirror Illusion, unless Hanzō of the Salamander uses indiscriminate large-scale attacks, it is impossible to be discovered.

In the quiet space, in order to avoid making noise as much as possible and attracting Hanzō of the Salamander's attention, the two even slow down their breathing frequency.

Ryosuke, who originally intended to explain the effect of Demonic Mirror Illusion to Tsunade, knows that there is no need for him to say more after seeing Tsunade's state; Tsunade has already guessed the effect of Demonic Mirror Illusion.
