"Now that you've finished arguing, tell me what your next task is!" Tsunade's imposing presence was intimidating to many who were easily frightened. They quickly adopted the demeanor of good students and looked at Tsunade with a dignified air.

"We are not far from the Land of Water now. It will only take half a day to reach the Land of Water."

"However, this great battle has strengthened the defenses of the Land of Water's borders, making it difficult to enter the Land of Water safely. Therefore, each of your squads will have to travel separately and regroup at the foot of Mount Nobeoka after arriving in the Land of Water!"

"Did you hear me?!" Tsunade suddenly shouted, startling everyone below.

"I understand!!"

Tsunade's lips curled into a slight smile: "Then get going, you old hag!"

They don't have a fixed route; you just need to get to the foot of Mount Nobeoka in the Land of Water.

Tsunade glanced worriedly at the people who had already left, and couldn't help but ask Orochimaru, "How many people do you think will go to the foot of Mount Nobeoka?"

"half!"

Orochimaru's tone was icy. Many people say that Orochimaru is cold and has no emotions towards people, but only those who know him well know that he hides his emotions very deeply.

……

"Damn fog!"

Hiashi Hyuga complained that the fog here was too thick; his Byakugan could only see a hundred meters ahead, and beyond that, everything became blurry.

"From now on, the three of us will be teammates. I hope we can work together happily. Let me briefly explain what I'm good at!" Fugaku Uchiha laughed. "I'm good at Fire Release and Genjutsu. But in this awful weather in the Land of Water, I'm afraid I can only use about 80% of its power!"

Zhang Ye and Hyuga Hiashi couldn't help but glance at Fugaku.

It's important to know that the Land of Water is humid year-round, which greatly reduces the power of Fire Release techniques. However, Fugaku Uchiha claimed that he could unleash eight-tenths of the power of his Fire Release techniques here, demonstrating that his strength was not only at the Jonin level.

Zhang Ye used his True Sight Eye to view Fugaku's basic information.

At only twenty years old, he already possessed the strength of an elite Jonin, making him the strongest among them.

Of course, this excludes Zhang Ye, who uses the Crimson Dragon Emperor's gauntlets.

"I won't say much, you all know what I'm good at. Let me first tell you about my weakness: I'm very bad at air combat. If I encounter enemies who are good at ranged attacks, I'm afraid I'll need your help!"

Both of them had already given their information, but what they said was actually quite general. It's common knowledge that the Uchiha are skilled in Fire Release and the Hyuga are weak in anti-air abilities.

However, they had only heard that Zhang Ye was a once-in-a-century genius, but his specific abilities were not fully described in his records.

"I am also skilled in fire-style techniques and swordsmanship. I have no problem with either close or long-range attacks, but I may be completely ignorant of genjutsu!"

Zhang Ye generously shared all his information.

These two will be his teammates during this period, and he will be entrusting his back to them.

Despite his long-standing grudge against the Uchiha clan, Zhang Ye was confident that Fugaku Uchiha would not easily kill him.

Anyone with half a brain knows the consequences of killing Zhang Ye.

"Let's decide who the captain is now!" Fugaku Uchiha said with a smile.

A glint of light flashed in Hiashi Hyuga's eyes.

Don't underestimate the captain of a three-person squad. When it comes to calculating battle merits after the battle, the captain will receive far more merits than the members.

Many people would fight to the death to become the team captain!

Seeing the two silent men, Fugaku Uchiha suggested, "In that case, why don't I become the captain?"

"No way!" Hiashi Hyuga blurted out without even thinking.

The reason is simple: if Fugaku Uchiha were his friend, Hiashi Hyuga probably wouldn't agree to him becoming the captain.

After all, this concerns the honor of their family!

If word got out that a Hyuga clan ninja was working as a subordinate for an Uchiha ninja, the clan head would likely be unhappy.

Therefore, one must be very careful when becoming a team leader.

"Then let's rank them by level!" Fugaku Uchiha's eyes darted around as he spoke, "I'm a Jonin!"

“I’m a Jonin too!” Hiashi Hyuga chuckled.

"Me too!"

They were stunned after hearing Zhang Ye's words.

"How old are you? You're already a Jonin?" Hiashi Hyuga and Fugaku Uchiha stared at Zhang Ye in shock.

They knew that Zhang Ye had only graduated from the Ninja Academy a year ago.

Even if you are a genius, you can only reach the level of Special Jonin at most in a year. How could you possibly reach the level of Jonin in such a short period of time?

"Sigh, looks like I'll have to come up with a new plan again!" Fugaku Uchiha sighed, but his expression remained indifferent.

"No need to think about it anymore, let's just have a competition!"

"Contest?"

Fugaku Uchiha and Hiashi Hyuga were taken aback; they didn't understand what Zhang Ye was talking about.

"Let's see who kills the most Mist Ninjas, and that person will be the captain!" Zhang Ye's lips curled into a cruel smile.

During his year on the battlefield, his heart had been hardened to the point that killing the enemy no longer stirred any reluctance in him.

"A Mist Ninja?" Hiashi Hyuga's eyes widened, and he immediately activated his Byakugan.

The surroundings were still shrouded in a thick fog, but what was different was that chakra was present within the fog!

"Hidden Mist Technique!"

Hiashi Hyuga was immediately shocked. He knew that the Hyuga clan not only had a 360° field of vision but also excellent perception. However, they were shrouded in a man-made fog, and he had no reaction at all.

He then glanced at Zhang Ye, who remained calm and composed, and his shock deepened.

Before, if he had said he was a Jonin, I probably wouldn't have believed him, but now I have no choice but to believe him!

In the Hidden Mist Technique, his Byakugan was essentially useless, since it was a dense fog created with chakra, and the air was filled with flowing chakra, making it impossible for him to find any trace of the enemy.

"Where is the enemy?" Fugaku Uchiha asked Hiashi Hyuga.

The latter shook his head and bit his lip; this was the most humiliating moment he had experienced since becoming a Jonin.

Suddenly, Zhang Ye narrowed his eyes, and several shuriken appeared in his hand, which he threw out in a direction not far away.

Chapter 113 Instant Kill

The shuriken were thrown out and shot in ten different directions along different arcs.

Ding ding ding!!

But the next moment, Zhang Ye's shuriken was knocked down, and ten figures emerged from the thick fog.

Suddenly, Zhang Ye and his group stopped in their tracks and landed on a treetop.

"Ten people, let's see who gets the most kills out of the three of us. The winner gets to be the captain, how about it?"

A slight smile appeared on Zhang Ye's lips. He had just used his True Sight to examine these ten people, and none of them were particularly strong. The strongest among them only possessed the strength of a Jonin.

"I'd be happy to oblige!"

Hiashi Hyuga and Fugaku Uchiha smiled, indicating that they could accept the proposal.

Fugaku revealed a confident smile. He was the oldest of the three, and even though the other two were Jonin, they might not be able to compare to him!

A white-haired man dressed in what looked like bandages carried a giant sword and revealed a ferocious smile.

Are all the people of the Water Kingdom like this?

Zhang Ye remembered that when he watched Naruto, he complained about the ninjas of Kirigakure, saying that most of them had teeth like sharks.

"Konoha ninjas, we've been waiting here for a long time!"

Name: Hozuki Yuuma

Identity: Jonin of Kirigakure, member of the Hozuki clan

Level: 76

Relationship: Poor

The ghost lantern clan?

Zhang Ye suddenly paused, feeling as if he had heard the name of this family somewhere before.

Hozuki Suigetsu!!

Then a smile appeared on Zhang Ye's lips. Not many members of the Hozuki clan appeared, but each of them was a master.

Take Hozuki Suigetsu for example. In the original work, this guy seemed carefree and not very strong, but during the Five Kage Summit, he held off the Fourth Raikage so that Sasuke could kill Danzo.

This is enough to demonstrate its formidable strength.

Hozuki Mangetsu, Suigetsu's older brother, only appears briefly when he is summoned through the Impure World Reincarnation.

However, he is known as one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

When people talk about Kirigakure, the first thing that comes to mind is the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, which shows that none of them are weaklings.

The last one, and the strongest member of the Hozuki clan that Zhang Ye knew of, was Hozuki Gengetsu.

The Second Mizukage of Kirigakure caused the Allied Shinobi Forces a great deal of trouble during the Fourth Shinobi World War.

"Boy, today I'll show you the water transformation technique of our Hozuki clan!" Hozuki Yuuma gripped the giant sword in both hands, and his body suddenly turned into a puddle of water.

Hiashi Hyuga had already activated his Byakugan and then said to Zhang Ye in a deep voice, "Be careful, I can't find any trace of this guy!"

Zhang Ye smiled slightly. Although the water transformation technique was troublesome to deal with, it also had a fatal weakness.

Earth overcomes Water!

However, the Water Transformation Technique is immune to Earth Release's counter, but is vulnerable to Lightning Release.

Although Zhang Ye is not proficient in lightning techniques, he does possess a powerful lightning-based skill.

100,000 volts!!

Zhang Ye stretched out his hand, and instantly a golden lightning flashed across his palm, a powerful burst of lightning erupting suddenly!
