As an "outsider," he was naturally aware of the Hozuki clan's water transformation technique passed down through generations. Therefore, when using the final form of the Hatake sword technique, he not only infused most of the wind-style chakra into the Moon Silver, but also a small amount of void energy.
Unlike chakra, which is "147", the recovery of void energy is extremely slow. After all, as a cosmic-level, unreasonable energy, it is simply too overpowered. A novice void prophet is like a kindergarten graduate in the void.
The amount of void energy they possess is certainly not very high.
However, even a tiny amount of void energy is beyond the human body's capacity to withstand. Hozuki Senjin, a near-Kage level cultivator, already possesses formidable physical strength, but even he could not sustain it for long.
"You bastard!"
Enduring intense internal pain, Hozuki Senjin glared at Shen Qiu with murderous intent. Did this Uchiha brat foresee everything? Did he even foresee his use of the Water Transformation Technique?
What a joke!
"Where is the antidote? If you tell me now, I might make your death look better."
Hozuki Senjin looked at Shen Qiu and spoke slowly and deliberately. Because the pain in his body was too intense, Shen Qiu could clearly hear Hozuki Senjin's voice trembling as he spoke.
"There is no antidote, if I had to say—"
Shen Qiu turned his face to Hozuki Senjin and gave him a handsome smile.
"If they kill me, maybe... perhaps... it will stop."
Shen Qiu pondered for a moment. In truth, he wasn't sure if it would stop, after all, he hadn't died yet...
"Oh, is it so?"
Hozuki Senjin looked at Shen Qiu, who seemed not to understand his meaning. In his opinion, unless he could defeat Shen Qiu, the other party would never easily hand over the antidote.
"Uchiha Aki, I don't know if you recognize the Second Tsuchikage."
"Huh?" Shen Qiu looked at Hozuki Senjin with some confusion. Why was he asking these strange questions at this time?
"I doubt you'd know, so I'll mercifully tell you. If you've ever met the Second Tsuchikage, you'd know that when he was alive, his entire body was covered in long white bandages. Do you know why?"
At this point, Hozuki Senjin let out a series of cold laughs.
"This is because he was hit by the Second Mizukage's secret technique during their battle. All the skin on his body was burned. Can you imagine the pain? Do you think it would feel like for a human to lose their skin?"
The pain inside his body grew stronger and stronger. Hozuki Senjin could no longer forcefully suppress the pain coming from his nerves with his willpower, and his voice began to roar!
"Let me tell you the name of that technique, Uchiha Aki."
He could feel his hands gradually slipping out of his control, but the humiliation of being so easily manipulated by a junior and a genin drove Hozuki Senjin to the brink of madness.
"Water Release Secret Technique—"
"Steaming and explosive!"
After shouting the name of the technique, Hozuki Senjin coughed up a mouthful of blood. He had already consumed a lot of chakra by releasing Hiramekarei several times today, and he had also used various ninjutsu and secret techniques, so his chakra was actually already depleted.
Forcibly overdrawing chakra can be fatal.
Kakashi died during Pain's invasion of Konoha because he continuously used ninjutsu and Kamui, ultimately exhausting his chakra.
But Hozuki Senjin didn't care. He knew that no matter what, the kid opposite him would never hand over the antidote. Since that was the case, he might as well use his last bit of strength to eliminate the opponent here and remove a hidden danger for Kirigakure.
"Just as I expected!"
Halfway through his sentence, Hozuki Senjin realized what technique he intended to use: "Steam Explosion," a secret family technique of the Hozuki clan, created by the Second Mizukage.
The principle behind this technique is to use the oil and water in the body to create a clone in the shape of a child. The clone's right arm can split into a giant sword, which is extremely fast and agile, and can fly freely in the air.
The child-shaped object is made of oil, while the interior is filled with water. It is characterized by its rapid heating and cooling; any movement will cause the surface oil to heat up quickly, evaporating the internal water and triggering a vapor explosion. The vapor then cools and shrinks by turning into hail, preparing for the next explosion.
The more clones it creates, the more heat it generates, causing the water inside to evaporate rapidly. Once the hail stops, the water vapor will burst again, creating an endless cycle. The weakness is that the main body is relatively weak for a period of time after each explosion.
A clone that looked exactly like Hozuki Senjin appeared quickly beside him and began to expand rapidly!
This move can be described as an ultimate ninjutsu. Even the Third Tsuchikage was helpless against it, which shows how powerful it is. Shen Qiu looked at the child clone that had expanded to about ten meters in just a few seconds with a solemn expression.
However, there is good news: given Hozuki Senjin's current physical condition, he would probably die if he were hit by this attack once.
"I will not allow you to kidnap those children under any circumstances."
Kobayashi Ruri bit her lip as she watched the hawk approach. Although she didn't know what the other party's purpose was, she could sense that if she gave up those children, things would definitely not end well.
"Humph."
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!" Seeing the hawk getting closer and closer, Ruri no longer chose to sit and wait for death. She quickly formed hand seals and used her only ninjutsu that she was good at.
"Earth Release·Earth Dragon Bullet!"
After seeing Ruri use her ninjutsu, Nawaki also chose not to hesitate any longer. This was the strongest ninjutsu he had learned, but because he hadn't practiced diligently, the earth dragon that burst forth from the ground was much smaller than the one released by Sakumo.
"Huh, what a small skill."
Instead of dodging the fireballs and earth dragon hawks rushing towards him, he showed a look of disdain.
"Baguazhang·Huitian!"

Chapter 133: Slaying Hozuki Senjin - The First Ninja Sword (Please Subscribe)
"Uchiha Aki, prepare to die!"
While coughing up blood, Hozuki Senjin, who was controlling the Steam Explosion Technique, looked like a madman. This was a technique that even the Second Tsuchikage Mu himself found helpless against, and this brat from the Uchiha clan had no way to dodge it.
When using the Steam Explosion, his main body weakens with each explosion of the giant clone. Right now, he probably can only explode once before he dies!
But he didn't care!
"Blow it up!"
Looking at the child clone that had grown to over ten meters tall, Hozuki Senjin, unable to provide any more chakra, finally succumbed to the severe aftereffects of overdrawing his chakra and knelt on the ground.
At the same time, the giant child clone hissed and exploded with a "bang" as if it had leaked air. A plume of white smoke shot out from the clone, which was steam at a temperature of 500 degrees Celsius!
The trees on the ground could not withstand the terrifying steam. Their bark began to peel off layer by layer until the trees withered and shrank. Like dominoes, a huge amount of steam began to spread from the point of the explosion.
Within a three-kilometer radius, both trees and animals were scorched to death by the terrifying steam temperature, leaving no trace of life. The central area of Hell Valley was as if it had been completely cleared, with large areas of yellow earth exposed.
"Now...phew...that kid should be dead by now..."
Due to the continuous use of forbidden techniques and the depletion of chakra, Hozuki Senjin's consciousness began to blur, and everything he saw was hazy.
Even so, he still wanted to see Shen Qiu's body clearly. He strained his eyes, but unfortunately, he still couldn't see where he was.
"Vaporized...not even a corpse remained...."
Hozuki Senjin, who had exhausted all his strength but still couldn't see Shen Qiu, seemed somewhat disappointed, but he comforted himself with the same thought.
"It's a very powerful technique. If you weren't so badly injured, it would probably be an S-rank ultimate ninjutsu. But unfortunately, the one you're using now is only an A+ rank at most."
Just then, that chilling voice that had sent shivers down Hozuki Senjin's spine rang out once more.
Shen Qiu slowly walked up from behind him, a strange purple energy faintly swirling around him. This was the Void Prophet's passive skill – Void Shield!
It can withstand one attack of level S or below, with a cooldown of two days.
If the Second Mizukage, Hozuki Gengetsu, were to use this technique, he would probably have to activate his Mangekyou Sharingan to avoid the terrifying power of the vapor explosion. Although Avalon is very powerful, it wouldn't matter if Shen Qiu were vaporized in an instant.
However, not everyone is like Hozuki Gengetsu, capable of using techniques that even the Second Tsuchikage couldn't handle.
"you you....."
Hozuki Senjin wanted to say something, but his body, which was being severely corroded by the void energy, was now unable to speak. At this moment, he felt as if even his throat was being severely corroded.
"I'll take the Twin Blades Hiramoe. This is the first one, but it will definitely not be the last."
With a clang, the Moon Silver Sword slipped into Shen Qiu's hand. With a swift and decisive stroke, he severed Hozuki Senjin's head.
Although he would soon die from the erosion of the void energy within his body, Shen Qiu naturally didn't have such a cruel sense of humor and preferred to end his life sooner rather than later.
After putting away the Moon Silver, Shen Qiu turned his gaze to the twin swords Hiramekarei beside Hozuki Senjin. After three months, he finally officially stepped into the first part of the main quest.
"This is the double-sworded flounder..."
After lifting the blade, which resembled a flounder, Shen Qiu looked at it from left to right but still couldn't figure out what material it was made of. But it didn't matter, since the knife wasn't of much use to him anyway.
"Once word gets out that I killed Hozuki Senjin, it will probably cause a huge uproar..."
After silently putting away his twin swords, Hiramekarei, Shen Qiu suddenly realized that the main quest two, collecting at least four of the Seven Ninja Swords, and the side quest one, making a name for himself in the ninja world, could actually be done together.
Hozuki Senjin, one of the top fighters in Kirigakure, has now fallen at his own hands. It won't be long before his name reaches the ears of the Kage of the Five Great Hidden Villages.
However, this is far from enough. Although the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are among the strongest and most famous in the ninja world, it is still very difficult to make a name for oneself by defeating them.
It's unlikely that even one out of five ninjas would have heard of his name. Might Guy, for example, killed four of the seven ninjas in a 1v7 battle during the Third Shinobi World War, but his fame only lasted for a short time.
After things calmed down, apart from some ninjas from Kirigakure and Konoha, how many people would remember him?
"To truly make a name for myself, I guess I'll have to wait until the Second Shinobi World War, more than a year from now..."
Shen Qiu gazed into the distance and pondered, "No matter when, war is indeed the fastest way to become famous. During the Second Shinobi World War, the names of 'Konoha's White Fang, Hatake Sakumo' and the 'Three Legendary Sannin' resounded throughout the world. Only in this way can one be considered truly famous throughout the 147 Shinobi Worlds."
"Chakra!"
Just as Shen Qiu was about to sit down and practice for a while, his chakra perception, which was far beyond that of normal people and even somewhat terrifying, suddenly sensed the fluctuations of ninjutsu from afar.
That was the direction Kobayashi Ruri and Nawaki were retreating in.
