The Uchiha Clan's Sun

With several muffled thuds, the iron bar at the end of the chain avoided the sharp edge of the flying shuriken and struck the side of the shuriken, knocking them all away!

But after this delay, the Dream Eater not far away opened its huge mouth, and a terrifying suction force burst out from its mouth, devouring everything around it!

The purple poisonous fog in the air surged like a river overflowing its banks, all rushing towards the mouth of the Dream Eater!

This suction force also acted on Hanzo the Salamander, constantly pulling at his body!

"Wind Release·Vacuum Wave!"

Just then, a figure appeared behind Hanzo the Salamander, opening its mouth and spitting out a sharp aura resembling that of a Kamaitachi towards Hanzo the Salamander!

"boom!"

The massive wind bullet slammed into Hanzo the Salamander's body, blasting him into a spray of water!

"Water body?"

Danzo Shimura frowned slightly, his gaze quickly locking onto another direction as he formed hand seals: "Wind Release: Vacuum Ball!"

Danzo Shimura exhaled short breaths in succession, firing out wind-style chakra-infused energy like bullets from a machine gun!

"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"

The Vacuum Ball attacks were relentless, covering a wide area, and difficult to dodge. Hanzo of the Salamander had no choice but to use Water Release ninjutsu to defend!

The wind-blown projectile collided with the water curtain, splashing water everywhere!

Danzo Shimura was extremely skilled in Wind Release ninjutsu and had a mastery of the nature transformation of wind-attribute chakra, which was far beyond what ordinary Jonin could achieve!

If Hanzo of the Salamander hadn't also possessed extremely powerful Water Release techniques, it would have been quite difficult to block Danzo Shimura's Vacuum Ball with a Water Barrier!

Hanzo the Salamander flashed through the water curtain, his scythe whistling through the air as he aimed straight for Danzo Shimura's face!

Shimura Danzo's expression remained unchanged as he swiftly drew his katana from his back to block Hanzo's scythe!

The two figures passed each other, created distance, and then quickly turned around to confront each other!

Hanzo the Salamander narrowed his eyes, looking at Danzo Shimura's intact hands and body, which showed no signs of poisoning, and felt a slight stirring in his heart.

Izanagi?

Hanzo the Salamander looked at Danzo Shimura's eye, which was wrapped in bandages.

At this point, Danzo Shimura had not yet transplanted that disgusting arm full of Sharingan eyes, and the only possible Sharingan eye was hidden in the eye socket under the bandage!

In other words, Danzo Shimura only has one chance to use Izanagi now!

Izanagi's effective duration is about one minute.

Judging by the timeline, Shimura Danzo may not have yet exited the state of Izanagi!

Once Hanzo of the Salamander realized this, he immediately changed his mind about fighting Danzo Shimura and charged towards the Root ninjas around him!

After being subjected to the two wide-range attack ninjutsu, the Exploding Flame Array and the Poison Spray, half of the elite Root ninjas brought by Shimura Danzo have been lost!

Just now, Hanzo the Salamander charged through the poisonous fog again, and there are very few of these Root elite ninja left!

The remaining elite Root ninjas had not recovered from the poisonous fog and showed varying degrees of poisoning symptoms.

Now is the best time to deal with them!

Only by dealing with them can we better deal with Shimura Danzo!

"How can it be repaired?"

Danzo Shimura saw through Hanzo's intentions, cursed under his breath, and quickly chased after Hanzo!

Despite his expressionless face, Shimura Danzo was actually burning with rage inside!

That's a Mangekyou Sharingan!

Those were the eyes that Shimura Danzo had painstakingly obtained from his former teammate, Uchiha Kagami, but he never expected that they would be wasted here without even being used as a dojutsu!

This made Danzo Shimura extremely resentful!

The deaths of those elite Root ninjas also frustrated Danzo Shimura to the point of almost vomiting blood!

His foundation is basically all here; this is the power he has cultivated over decades with countless efforts!

Danzo Shimura was so enraged that he wanted to tear Hanzo of the salamander apart alive!

Now, Hanzo the Salamander is going to kill the remaining Root ninjas right in front of him. How could Danzo Shimura possibly accept this?

More importantly, Danzo Shimura knew very well that he alone would not be a match for Hanzo the Salamander!

If Hanzo of the Salamander were to take this opportunity to kill all the Root ninjas, he himself would be in danger!

We must stop the salamander from hiding until the poison in this area dissipates!

Chapter 41 Both sides suffer losses!

"Wind Escape·Vacuum Continuous Waves!"

Danzo Shimura formed hand seals and exhaled a large amount of energy, which transformed into a series of slashes resembling those of a katana-like weasel, sweeping across the area where Hanzo the Salamander was located!

There was no way around it; Hanzo the Salamander's Body Flicker Technique was just too fast, and Danzo Shimura couldn't keep up with his speed at all.

Danzo Shimura can only unleash this wide-area attack to try and slow down Hanzo the Salamander.

However, this was the moment Hanzo the Salamander had been waiting for!

Hanzo the Salamander teleported to the side of Vacuum Wave in a flash, pulled down his mask to reveal his mouth, and quickly formed hand seals: "Fire Release: Great Flame Bullet!"

Although Hanzo the Salamander is skilled in Water Release techniques, it doesn't mean that he only knows Water Release.

Among the five elemental ninjutsu, besides water ninjutsu, fire ninjutsu is the one he uses most often.

At the same time, fire overcomes wind in the Five Elements Ninjutsu.

Fire borrows the power of wind, and wind aids fire!

If two ninjas use fire-style ninjutsu and wind-style ninjutsu of the same level to attack each other, the ninja using wind-style ninjutsu will be shocked to find that his ninjutsu not only failed to stop the opponent's ninjutsu, but also increased the power of the opponent's ninjutsu!

And that's exactly the situation right now!

The giant fireball spewed by Hanzo the Salamander quickly spread into a raging sea of ​​fire after colliding with the vacuum wave unleashed by Danzo Shimura!

But the target of the inferno was the Baku, which was devouring the poisonous mist!

For Hanzo the Salamander, the existence of the Baku was more threatening than those Root ninjas.

The Baku's ability to devour food limited the Salamander Ifuku's poison mist spray, which effectively eliminated Hanzo's greatest advantage on the battlefield.

Once the Baku is dealt with, the Salamander Ibuki will soon be able to launch its next poison spray.

At that time, those Root ninjas in the poisonous fog will be nothing more than lambs to the slaughter for Hanzo the Salamander!

"Ow!!!"

The suction force from the Dream Eater's mouth accelerated the spread of the sea of ​​fire, which surged to the Dream Eater's side in no time, causing the Dream Eater to howl in pain from the heat.

This rendered the Dream Eater unable to devour the poisonous mist in the arena, and it soon disappeared from the arena.

"How can this be repaired! Wind Release: Vacuum Blade!"

Danzo Shimura realized he had been tricked, and he spat out a hurricane that wrapped around the blade of his katana before slashing at Hanzo the Salamander!

As the katana slashed, a hurricane spread out from the blade, forming a huge wind blade that slashed across a distance of more than ten meters toward Hanzo the Salamander!

As Hanzo the Salamander turned to one side, a massive wind blade slashed down his body with a hair's breadth, leaving a smooth crack in the ground!

Danzo Shimura, having failed in his first attack, once again swung his katana at Hanzo the Salamander!

Hanzo the Salamander casually removed the distorted mask from his face and threw it on the ground, then charged towards Danzo Shimura.

The battle has progressed to this point where there is no longer any need to worry about the poison being released through breathing.

Hanzo the Salamander and Danzo Shimura passed each other by.

Although Shimura Danzo managed to block the attack from Hanzo the Salamander's scythe, the iron rod attached to the back of the scythe slammed into his chest with a powerful gust of wind!

Danzo Shimura grunted and took several steps back.

Hanzo the Salamander's attack broke at least two of his ribs!

In terms of swordsmanship and physical skills alone, Shimura Danzo was no match for Hanzo the Salamander!

Just as Hanzo the Salamander was about to press his advantage, several figures attacked from all sides, hindering his movements!

They were Root ninjas who had temporarily suppressed the toxins in their bodies with antidotes!

Although the poison of the Salamander Ibuki is extremely potent, it is produced naturally within its body and is relatively simple. Many forces in the ninja world have already developed corresponding antidotes.

Konoha is one of them!

"The Jonin-level ninjas, stay and help me deal with Hanzo. The rest of you, go and take care of that beast!"

After regaining his footing, Shimura Danzo quickly gave orders to the Root ninjas around him.

Although they had an antidote for the poison in salamanders, it wasn't a cure-all!

Once the toxins from the salamanders have accumulated to a certain level in their bodies, even if they have an antidote, it won't help!

The logic is simple: one part alkali cannot neutralize five parts acid!

This is an example of quantitative change leading to qualitative change!

According to intelligence, after each use of poison spray, the salamander Ibuki needs to accumulate about five minutes before it can be sprayed again.

They must deal with the salamander Ibuki before it can use its poison spray again!

With Danzo Shimura's order, the Root ninjas who were besieging Hanzo the Salamander were reduced to only three in an instant, which almost made Danzo's heart ache so much that he could not breathe!

This is a Jonin!

No matter which village it is, Jonin are considered the core strength of the village!

Over the years, Root has spent countless resources to cultivate fewer than thirty Jonin!

Apart from the Jonin who stayed behind at the Root base and those who were on other missions, only three of the nearly twenty Jonin he brought with him were dead!

How could Shimura Danzo not be heartbroken!

"Watch out for his poison! Don't get hurt by the scythe in his hand!"

Shimura Danzo gave a reminder and then joined the battle himself.

The toxins on Hanzo's sickle are far superior to those on Ifuku!

The toxin on Hanzo's sickle is a complex toxin he carefully crafted by combining multiple toxins, and conventional antidotes are completely ineffective!

Danzo Shimura, who used Izanagi once, deeply understands this point!

"Water Release·Water Crush Wave!"

With the three Jonin holding him back, Hanzo of the Salamander was not as relaxed as before when facing Danzo Shimura, and soon he had several wounds on his body!

Although they were all just superficial wounds that didn't affect the fight, they were enough to illustrate the difficulties Hanzo the Salamander was facing!

Hanzo the Salamander had to use water to create a breathing space!

A wave several meters high crashed towards Shimura Danzo, forcing him to retreat and create distance.

Hanzo of the Salamander seized the opportunity and used the Body Flicker Technique to flash past, cutting a Root Jonin who had no time to react in two!

Hanzo of the Salamander succeeded in his attack, but his hands didn't stop. He pulled the chain, and the iron rod, carrying a strong wind, smashed into the head of another Root Jonin who was about to come to the rescue, blowing his head off in mid-air!

In just a moment, Hanzo the Salamander took down two Root Jonin!

However, Hanzo of the Salamander paid the price for this by having his shoulder pierced by a kunai imbued with lightning from the remaining Root Jonin!

"what!!!"

A heart-wrenching scream rang out, and the last Root Jonin was drenched in blood from Hanzo the Salamander's spray, his body riddled with holes from the poisonous blood.

Hanzo the Salamander is a 'poison man'; the toxins in his body are something even he himself must be careful about!

With a kick, Hanzo of the Salamander sent the lifeless Root Jonin flying, and raised his scythe to block the katana that Shimura Danzo was wielding!

The battle between the two sides has reached a fever pitch!

Chapter 42 Accident!

"Hanzo, your end is today!"
