His gaze fell on the crest of the wave, where Yagura was floating on the surface.

He snorted coldly, bent his legs slightly, pressed them against the ground, and shot out like a cannonball!

At the same time, he twisted his wrist, and the short blade drew an arc in the water, slashing towards Yagura Karatachi.

Yagura's expression suddenly turned serious, and he raised his hand to form a hand seal.

"Water Release: Water Gun Technique!"

A sharp spear appeared in his palm, and he threw it with all his might, blocking Rukawa's short blade.

"Oh!"

The two weapons collided, unleashing a violent shockwave.

"Not bad strength, no wonder you dared to provoke me."

Rukawa sneered, then suddenly ducked to avoid the water gun thrown by Yagura.

"not good!"

Yagura's heart skipped a beat, and he knew something was wrong.

However, it was too late.

Rukawa's body was as agile and unpredictable as a swimming fish. He bypassed Yagura and suddenly kicked out two sweeping kicks at his side.

"Boom!"

After two muffled thuds, Yagura was kicked against the wall, shattering the glass and embedding himself in the rubble, where he fell unconscious.

"Phew...we almost capsized in the gutter!"

Rukawa was panting, his clothes were torn to shreds, and his body was covered in many fine wounds from which blood was constantly seeping out.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his gaze coldly fixed on Yagura, who lay among the ruins.

"What a despicable brat!"

Yagura Karatachi slowly woke up, clutching his chest, and said maliciously, "But do you think you've got it all figured out? I'm the user of the Shadow Clone Technique, you can forget about catching me."

He leaped out of the ruins and used a shadow clone to escape the room in place of his main body.

"Hmph, do you think shadow clones can help you get out of this predicament?"

Rukawa saw through his intentions and said coldly, "Don't dream about it, because this level of shadow clone is nothing to me."

Rukawa clasped his hands together, then suddenly opened them wide.

"Earth escape·earth collapse!"

Suddenly, the earth shook violently, and rocks were lifted up from the ground.

"Damn it, it can even manipulate rocks."

Yagura was startled and quickly used his chakra to defend against the impacts while moving away from Rukawa's area.

However, he neglected the ground beneath his feet.

"Boom!"

He slipped and fell to the ground with a thud, looking utterly disheveled.

"Haha, looking at your stupid and clumsy appearance, you don't look like a ninja at all!"

Rukawa laughed loudly and said sarcastically.

"You bastard, after I'm done with you, I'm going to skin you alive and pull your tendons out!"

Upon hearing Rukawa's harsh words, Yagura Karatachi flew into a rage, releasing a stream of water that enveloped him.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

He suddenly threw out the stream of water in front of him, which transformed into a water dragon and roared towards Liuchuan.

Earth Release: Iron Block!

Rukawa threw a punch, and his tan shield blocked the water dragon's impact.

Earth Release: Thousand Birds Stream!

Rukawa gripped the sword with both hands, and the incomparably sharp Chidori burst forth from the short blade, heading straight for Yagura.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

With one hand forming a hand seal, a massive column of water rose in front of him, intercepting the Chidori.

"boom!"

The water burst open, sending up a cloud of debris and dust that enveloped the river.

"Hmph! Your death is near!"

Yagura's eyes narrowed to slits, revealing a chilling killing intent as he slowly approached Rukawa.

"Heh, who told you I lost?"

Just then, Rukawa's voice rang out, and then, to Yagura's astonishment, the waves that filled the sky were scattered and flew everywhere, and Rukawa's figure stood in the middle of it.

"What's happening here?"

Yagura was sluggish.

"I'm sorry, I was just testing your strength."

Rukawa's lips curled into a slight smile. His body flashed, and he instantly appeared in front of Yagura, the short blade in his hand slashing towards Yagura's throat.

"Whoosh!"

Yagura retreated rapidly, barely dodging Rukawa's short blade.

"Damn, how did this guy suddenly become so powerful?"

Yagura cursed under his breath.

He never expected to be defeated so easily, and so thoroughly, with no chance of resistance whatsoever.

What Yagura didn't know was that Rukawa had already figured out all of his moves in the previous battles, and then used his own tactics against him to win.

"It seems you've already conceded defeat in this bet."

Rukawa said coldly, "You should know very well that I am no match for you right now. You must hand over the Tailed Beast..."

Before Rukawa could finish speaking, his expression suddenly froze: "What is it?"

A sinister smile played on Yagura's lips: "What do you think?"

"Fire Release: Great Flame Ball Technique!"

Yagura raised his hands high in front of him, and a ball of fire the size of a basketball rose into the air from his hands.

"call out!"

"Oh!"

The fireball struck Rukawa violently, engulfing him.

The flames subsided, but Rukawa was completely unharmed.

"What?! This is impossible?!"

Yagura was utterly horrified.

Chapter 113 The Tree Realm Descends! The Mighty Flame is Extinguished!

"Nothing is impossible. You miscalculated this time, but you won't be able to dodge it so easily next time."

Rukawa grinned.

"Hmph! No matter what, I'm going to kill you with my own hands!"

Yagura roared, and the water vapor around him became even denser, then transformed into a giant water dragon that lunged at Rukawa with its mouth wide open.

"Wood Release: Vine Whip!"

Rukawa stretched out his right arm, and green vines wrapped around the dragon's neck.

"Break it for me!"

"Crack!"

With a crisp snap, the wooden vine broke.

A sharp glint flashed in Rukawa's eyes: "I told you, you are no match for me!"

"Wooden Release: The birth of the tree world!"

Rukawa clasped his hands together, the earth trembled, and countless vines grew wildly, binding the giant dragon.

"not good!!"

Yagura's expression changed drastically; he felt his body rapidly withering away.

"Water Release: Water Curtain Heavenly Splendor!"

With a loud shout, Yagura Kojiki conjured a curtain of water that blocked the invasion of the wooden vines.

"Hey, I see. This ninjutsu seems to create a protective shield similar to a defense by fusing chakra and water!"

Rukawa sneered, his eyes glowing with an eerie red.

"Water Release: Super Water Rush!"

Rukawa stretched out his arms, and the Sharingan in his eyes shone with a dazzling red light.

Raindrops fall from the sky, each drop containing immense power.

"Clap clap-!"

A single raindrop struck the Water Curtain Sky's protective shield and instantly exploded.

"Oh!"

The water curtain shattered, and Yagura was soaked to the bone.

He glared angrily at Rukawa: "Rukawa, you're too arrogant! I'll make you pay for what you've done!"

"Wind Release: Wind Whirlwind!"

A white whirlwind condensed around Yagura and then hurled it towards Rukawa.

"Fire Escape·The Great Fire Extinguishes!"

With a flick of his finger, Rukawa unleashed a torrent of flames that instantly incinerated the wind-attribute ninjutsu.

"As expected of a Fire Release technique..."

Yagura's pupils constricted.

"Earth Release: Mud Swamp Technique!"

He gritted his teeth and used Earth Escape Technique, causing the earth to tremble violently. A huge mud python with bared fangs lunged at Rukawa.

"Earth Release·Earth Dragon Bullet!"

Rukawa formed hand seals, and a huge bullet made of earth element shot out from his hands.

The impact of the two phases caused the blast wave to disperse the pervasive gray fog.

"Wind Release: Spiral Shuriken!"

Rukawa seized the opportunity to throw the shuriken in his hand, and the kunai flew towards Yagura with terrifying power.

"boom!"

Yagura's hands formed a mudra, and scalding steam rose from his palms before he thrust them forcefully towards the kunai.

The kunai remained suspended in the air, while Yagura Karatachi jumped onto a large tree with a dense canopy.

Rukawa looked up at the treetops and said, "In that case, our war will have to continue."

"Hmph! I will never lose to you!"

Yagura's legs were taut, and he was poised to fire like an arrow.
