Chapter 201: Battle Against Kisame, Successful Assassination! [3/3]
Terumi Mei formed hand seals, refined her Chakra, and spat out a massive amount of water from her mouth, injecting it into the surrounding Water Wall.
Soon—
The water wall converged into the shape of a dragon.
On the other side, a vast amount of Chakra was compressed and condensed, then gushed out, forming a rolling wave of fire that sucked a large volume of air into its center.
And then————
Water and fire collided and exploded!
Boom!
As the water and fire exploded, a high-temperature thick mist covered the entire forest.
Amidst the rolling fire waves and water mist————
Swoosh!
Under the Body Flicker Technique, the opponent's speed eerily increased again, reaching her side in an instant.
The next second, a powerful current of water surged toward her.
Terumi Mei raised her hand to block, only gradually neutralizing Masahiko's offensive after a massive impact of Chakra, but the opponent used the recoil force—
To charge toward Ao in a flash!
"Damn it! This guy... just who is he?"
Terumi Mei's expression was grave, mixed with a hint of anger and panic.
Konoha had many Jonin, but this was the first time she had seen someone with such a style.
And now————
Ao was in danger!
"Watch out!"
Terumi Mei was desperate, immediately spitting out a large amount of acidic liquid.
But a vast earthen wall emerged behind the opponent, making it difficult for her Melting Acid to break through immediately.
Furthermore, the appearance of Earth Release likely meant that Kakashi Hatake might have arrived as well!
Separated by the earthen wall, Masahiko and Kakashi joined forces, performing a combination of Water Release and Lightning Release to strike at Ao.
Although Ao was a Jonin, he specialized more in perception and support rather than direct combat.
Facing an attack of this level, he had no chance of winning; at this moment, he could only flee for his life toward the Village while releasing a distress flare.
The two of them launched a pincer assassination from the left and right, and just as they were about to reach him————
Swoosh!
A blade swung through the air.
The Chakra was instantly devoured completely.
The great blade Samehada!
Kakashi and Masahiko retreated, exchanging a glance.
Kisame Hoshigaki shouldered Samehada, a sneer on his peculiar face: "Kakashi Hatake, we meet again. Our last battle wasn't quite fair; let's have a proper duel this time!"
Kakashi stared at Samehada, his eyes filled with gravity.
This blade could absorb Chakra!
Though he was also skilled in Taijutsu, he was at a disadvantage against such an enemy.
"I'll handle him!"
Masahiko's tone was heavy.
Kakashi nodded and said, "Alright!"
In comparison, Masahiko was indeed more proficient in Taijutsu.
The next second, he used the Body Flicker to circle around to the side.
Kisame grinned and said, "Is it really that simple?"
He brandished Samehada, about to use the Body Flicker to block Kakashi————
Clang!
A blade blocked Samehada.
Kisame felt that Samehada didn't budge an inch, and his brow couldn't help but twitch.
It can't absorb Chakra?
How could that be————
He was somewhat surprised, suddenly exerting force, the power in his wrist surging forward.
But at that moment, the opponent retracted the blade and retreated.
Kisame glanced over and immediately formed hand seals; several Water Sharks flew out, charging toward Kakashi.
Simultaneously—
Terumi Mei used the Body Flicker to rush past from the side.
Masahiko didn't stop her; his mission was to temporarily stall Kisame and ignore everything else.
Kisame's brow furrowed as he tried to bypass Masahiko.
However.
Masahiko flickered close, slamming his shoulder into him, and at the moment of contact, a burst of Chakra erupted.
At such close range————
Even Samehada couldn't pull back to defend in time.
Although Kisame had the ability to absorb Chakra, it was impossible to absorb an offensive Ninjutsu like this.
He was knocked back.
Masahiko stuck close to him, delivering the same fast and powerful attacks as before.
This was Nintaijutsu with instantaneous bursts!
Kisame raised an eyebrow, feeling it was troublesome while also feeling a surge of anger.
"Don't underestimate me!"
He jumped back and formed hand seals with both hands.
The next second, Kisame spat out a massive amount of Water Release Chakra from his mouth, forming a rolling torrent that surged in all directions.
Under the astonishing Chakra, his water struck the surroundings and spread, as terrifying as a flash flood.
Water Release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave!
Water rippled under Masahiko's feet, forming a vortex as he charged toward Kisame against the current.
Bang!
The two sides clashed, and the battle resumed.
Meanwhile, on the other side————
Kakashi flickered forward, dodging Kisame's Water Shark Bullet.
At the same time, Chakra gathered in his arms and feet; stimulated by Lightning Release Chakra, the cells in these areas were activated, constantly refining and squeezing out more Chakra.
Chirp, chirp, chirp!
The piercing sound of thunder was like the chirping of a thousand birds at this moment, and the sound came from all directions.
Although Ao could see Kakashi's position through the Byakugan, he couldn't precisely see the opponent's speed and trajectory.
He drew his blade to defend.
Terumi Mei also quickly rushed over to support, but how could their speed compare to Kakashi at full throttle?
In the blink of an eye—
Chirp, chirp, chirp!
Ao's eyes widened as he looked at the hand piercing through his chest, his face filled with bewilderment and shock.
So fast!
He felt his body gradually losing strength.
The next second, the flood surged over.
Kakashi's blade slashed through his head; that talisman automatically sealed, but it could only cover that specific eye.
Behind them, Terumi Mei flickered over.
However.
She only saw Kakashi slash through Ao's neck; she immediately swung her blade at his back, but her foot was bitten by a Ninja Dog that lunged out from the ground.
Kakashi flew back with the current, holding the head, while his other hand fired a signal flare.
Success, retreat!
He flickered away while securing Ao's head.
On the other side, the Samehada in Kisame Hoshigaki's hand continued to swell and grow, with spikes popping out one by one.
However.
At the moment the firework exploded behind them, the opponent's figure rapidly retreated, forming a Shadow Clone with a hand seal.
Trying to run?
Kisame's brow twitched as he formed hand seals; he spat out water, and the current below swirled upward and converged, seemingly forming a giant water prison.
Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave!
But Masahiko also spat out a massive amount of flames from his mouth.
The original and the clone used them together; one used the Great Fireball, while the other spat out small flames one after another.
Kisame brandished Samehada, directly slashing through the fireballs.
Under the high temperature, Samehada writhed uncomfortably, but it was quickly calmed by Kisame's Chakra.
However.
Amidst the flames and steam, only one person remained in front, charging toward him.
Kisame retreated, Samehada delivering a slash and a blast!
The clone suddenly exploded, forming a brilliant fire.
He looked back, then gave a cold smile: "You go back to the Village first!"
After that, Kisame rapidly pursued in the direction where Masahiko and Kakashi had retreated.
Terumi Mei looked around.
On the entire battlefield, only she, Kisame, and two Anbu Ninjas remained; everyone else had been killed.
Moreover.
Among the five from Konoha, two of them mainly had to deal with them and hunt down Ao.
Yet the other three, combined with a Shadow Clone, had actually killed so many Anbu Ninjas.
So strong!
She was shocked, but for a moment, she didn't know whether to advance or return to the Village.
After hesitating for a long while, Terumi Mei gritted her teeth and followed.
"We're coming with you!"
"Hmph, don't come and make a mess, otherwise———— I'll kill you!"
Kisame gave a cold smile, "You should know me, right?"
Hearing this, Terumi Mei was slightly stunned, then she backed away and silently stopped in her tracks.
Kisame Hoshigaki, the one who would kill his own comrades————
She could only watch Kisame leave.
