Chapter 76 The Invincible Demigod, the Ultimate Technique—"Zi"
"It's a Misty Concealment Technique. Don't fight him in the mist, and don't let him split up and defeat you one by one. Come and join us quickly."
With his field of vision limited by the thick fog, Orochimaru instantly understood Hanzo's intention and immediately shouted.
The moment the words left his mouth, Orochimaru's pupils contracted, and a chill ran down his spine.
There was no time to form hand seals to cast Earth Substitute, so without hesitation, he turned around and fired a golden beam of light from his hand.
clang!
The ninja sword and the Thunder God's sword clashed, producing a piercing sound, but there were no sparks flying, nor any sign of a struggle.
The moment the ninja sword clashed with the Thunder God's sword, explosive tags, seemingly possessing their own consciousness, crawled out from Hanzo the Salamander's wrist. His body then turned into a puddle of water, leaving only the ninja sword covered in explosive tags.
Rumble—
A series of explosions rang out, bursting into dazzling flames amidst the rain and white mist.
Hanzo the Salamander's use of the explosive tags was masterful.
Orochimaru never expected that his opponent would use the technique of discarding his sword to detonate the explosive tags. He still didn't have time to cast a spell, nor could he achieve the kind of instantaneous movement that Hanzo of the Salamander could. He could only unleash the chakra gathered under his feet and leap backward with all his might.
Even so, the shockwave from the explosion of the multiple detonating tags shattered Orochimaru's goggles, but thankfully his gas mask remained undamaged.
Whoosh—
As Orochimaru leaped backward into the air, he suddenly heard a piercing sound of air being torn apart.
Before he could even turn to face that direction, he could tell from the sound whether it was ninjutsu or a weapon.
With a "thud," the tip of the scythe pierced through the thick armor and disappeared into flesh, causing Orochimaru to show a pained expression.
Then, with a "ripping" sound, accompanied by the rattling sound of the chains being pulled.
A long, thin bloodstain suddenly appeared on Orochimaru's back, causing him to scream in agony, unable to bear it any longer.
"ah"
Orochimaru!
The scream finally pinpointed his location for Tsunade and Jiraiya, who rushed over immediately.
Just as Tsunade instinctively wanted to treat Orochimaru and stop the bleeding, he hurriedly urged, "Don't treat me! Get out of this area quickly, or we'll all die!"
Splash—
Before Tsunade and Jiraiya could use their teleportation abilities to support Orochimaru, they heard a "whoosh" sound again.
This time it wasn't the sound of chains rattling, but—the sound of ocean waves!
The next second, the water engulfed the three people.
Looking from a distance, you'll see a lake appear out of nowhere in the rocky area.
The massive flow of water finally dispersed the thick fog, but it also deprived the three legendary Konoha ninja of their ability to move.
At that moment, they were shocked to find that three Hanzo salamanders were shooting towards them at arrow speed in the water, in a formation similar to the Dance of the Crescent Moon.
Chiyo calls him "the old man with a ventilator." Hanzo the Salamander's mask is specially made and functions like an oxygen tank, allowing him to move freely in the water. Combined with his superb Water Body Flicker, no one in the water can surpass his speed.
The speed of these three Hanzo salamanders was so fast that they didn't give the three legendary Sannin of Konoha a chance to form hand seals.
Perhaps due to their tacit understanding, the three legendary Sannin of Konoha almost simultaneously thought of the Rasengan developed by Gojo Yoru.
If they survive this battle, they must learn new hand seal ninjutsu.
If they all mastered the Rasengan, even if they were trapped in a water-style trap, they would still have the ability to fight back against Hanzo the Salamander, whose speed in the water was unbelievable.
It might be because I was thinking of Gojo Yoru at the same time.
A black flash appeared out of thin air, and Gojo Yoru actually appeared in front of them, holding a blue and white energy ball in his hand, and slapped it forward.
The rapidly spinning Rasengan instantly stirred up countless tons of water, forming a water tornado that also spun at high speed, much like the Water Release: Water Fang Bullet, and attacked the three Salamander Hanzos.
The fact that the three Hanzo of the Salamanders couldn't even form hand seals shows that their incredible speed in the water was due not only to their amazing movement speed, but also to their ability to instantly unleash water-style ninjutsu while moving.
After Tobirama Senju's death, the ninja who was most skilled in Water Release was not the Mizukage of Kirigakure, but Hanzo of the Salamander.
His Water Release technique was so powerful that he could simplify the Water Dragon Bullet technique, which had forty-four hand seals, to only four.
On the territory of the Land of Rain, he can instantly create water-based attacks on the scale of a lake.
His Water Release: Nature Transformation technique has reached its peak; a single drop of water can transform into a sharp blade and be launched.
With his Water Instantaneous Movement and special mask, Hanzo of the Salamander, aside from having less chakra and lacking the Water Release: Water Shark Bullet Technique which can absorb ninjutsu and instantly drain an opponent's chakra, was more powerful and intimidating in the water than Kisame Hoshigaki in later generations.
Gojo Yoru teleported with the Rasengan, then created a water tornado with it in almost an instant.
In that brief moment, the three salamanders, Hanzo, simultaneously controlled the surrounding water flow, transforming it into several equally high-speed rotating water jets that collided with the waterspout.
Then several more enormous water blades bypassed the water tornadoes and columns, flying towards Gojo and the others.
Gojo Yoru was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected that his sudden attack would not only be met with resistance from these three Salamander Hanzos, who were clearly shadow clones or water clones, but they had also launched a counterattack.
This mastery of water-style techniques, along with this terrifying combat experience—is this the strength of a demigod in the ninja world?
No wonder Orochimaru and his two companions were almost wiped out before they could even find an opportunity to kill the salamander.
The original story's Hanzo of the Salamander vs. the Three Legendary Sannin of Konoha seems to have been somewhat watered down.
If Hanzo of the Salamander hadn't lost all hope of victory in the war and hadn't been unwilling to completely offend Konoha, he probably would have really killed the Legendary Sannin.
The butterfly effect caused by Gojo Yoru has brought forward the showdown between the demigod of the ninja world and the legendary Sannin of Konoha. This pinnacle of the ninja world is truly determined to kill.
He was just one of the three legendary Konoha Sannin, an elite Jonin level ninja. The difference between him and this person was like an insurmountable chasm.
No wonder that when the Konoha Crush was in the original story, Enma blamed Hiruzen Sarutobi for not killing Orochimaru back then.
These strongest individuals of different types can now easily defeat the Legendary Sannin of Konoha.
Unable to teleport with all three at once, Gojo Yoru was about to use a technique to block the incoming water blades.
Just then, a water dragon flew overhead, devouring the wind blade and the three salamanders, Hanzo, turning them all into smoke.
It turns out that Orochimaru hadn't been watching the show; he had already used the brief time Gojo Yoru had bought to complete his hand seals and launch a counterattack.
After taking down three shadow clones of Hanzo the Salamander in one move, Orochimaru immediately made a hand gesture to Gojo Yoru and then dived downwards.
Gojo Yoru then teleported away with Tsunade and Jiraiya one after the other.
Soon, the four met up on a huge rock that Gojo Yoru had secretly imbued with the Flying Thunder God Technique.
Since one of them escaped using Earth Instantaneous Movement and the other three disappeared by teleportation, it wouldn't be easy for Hanzo of the Salamander to find them in a short time.
"The original plan is canceled; we cannot fight him in the Land of Rain."
While receiving treatment from Tsunade's Healing Palm Technique, Orochimaru quickly said, "The rain, water flow, and moisture in the air here are natural aids for Hanzo. When he uses Water Release techniques here, whether it's a large-scale Water Release that requires a huge amount of chakra or the Water Flicker Technique, it's almost as fast as instantaneous."
"Even if the poison gas is difficult to dissipate in the forest, we must still lure him into the forest, otherwise he will only die faster."
Jiraiya suddenly suggested, "How about we... just turn back?"
Seeing that the three of them were staring at him, Jiraiya glanced at Gojo Yoru, who was taking a soldier's ration pill and racing against time to recover his chakra, and explained his reasoning: "Although we don't know what trump card Gojo-kun is hiding, Hanzo is obviously also on guard against this. After using the Hidden Mist Technique, we have no idea which one is his true form."
"The mountain clan in the perception class didn't use telepathy to warn us either, which means that even the perception class doesn't know where Hanzo's true form is hiding."
"Assassinating the number one assassin in the ninja world is as difficult as ascending to heaven."
"The salamander's defense is so strong that it can withstand many hits from the Five Elements Escape Technique. It can also immediately return to the Spirit World after being hit. It feels like assassinating it is even more difficult than assassinating Hanzo."
"Why not do what Sunagakure did, play hide-and-seek with him first, and then, once we've developed the antidote and improved our strength, seek revenge?"
Upon hearing this, both Orochimaru and Tsunade began to waver.
Choosing to flee from a demigod in the ninja world is never a disgrace, but a wise move.
Staying behind to fight Hanzo the Salamander, unless it's to cover for their comrades, would be a disgrace if they died and their names were engraved on a monument, a stain on the memory of their fallen heroes.
Orochimaru originally thought that Gojo Yoru's Dimensional Slash First Encounter Kill would allow him to do something that none of the five great ninja villages could do: kill Hanzo of the Salamander or that number one poisoner in the ninja world.
Unexpectedly, these three seniors ended up dragging Gojo Yoru down.
Now that Orochimaru heard Jiraiya say this, he felt it made a lot of sense.
There's no need to rush!
Neither the three of them nor Gojo Yoru have matured yet.
Once they develop the formula for the antidote, they can carry a large amount of the antidote with them, directly ignoring the salamander's potent poison. They might even be able to fight Hanzo the Salamander.
In the battle just now, they had already gathered some information about Hanzo the Salamander, knowing what kind of assassination methods he liked and was good at using.
They also experienced the power of his Water Release techniques and learned which aspect to improve in order to counter it.
Thinking of this, Orochimaru was about to nod in agreement with the suggestion to retreat.
At that moment, Gojo Yoru suddenly spoke up: "How about I try again?"
Facing the gazes of his three seniors, Gojo Yoru only met Orochimaru's eyes and spoke in words only the two of them could understand: "I have a new technique that might be able to prevent the salamander from being attacked and returning to the Summoning World, or even kill it."
Orochimaru's eyes lit up immediately, and he made a decision right away: "Then let's try again. We'll continue to cover for you and go out to attract Hanzo's attention."
"I'll act quickly this time, just give me a few minutes."
Gojo left behind these words and then disappeared underground.
Tsunade, finally unable to contain her curiosity, continued treating Orochimaru while asking, "Orochimaru, what kind of trump card is that Gojo kid hiding that makes you so confident in him?"
"Yes, could it be some kind of secret technique, or bloodline limit?" Jiraiya was equally curious and began to speculate. "I remember the Gojo clan doesn't seem to have any secret techniques passed down, nor are they a bloodline limit ninja clan. Before Mio married Hayate, she was born into a commoner family without a surname. Could it be that Mio's ancestors had an extraordinary background, or that the Gojo clan, like the Kurama clan, possesses an extremely rare bloodline limit that only appears once every few generations?"
In response to their curiosity, Orochimaru simply chuckled and said, "Sorry, I promised Yoru I would keep it a secret. Unless Yoru reveals it himself, or the entire ninja world guesses it, I won't tell anyone, including Sarutobi-sensei."
"Is it really that mysterious and powerful?" Jiraiya couldn't help but retort.
Tsunade couldn't help but retort, "The Slug Sage said that, and now you're saying the same thing? Doesn't that just make it even more unbearable?"
Orochimaru's eyes narrowed, and he turned to Tsunade, asking, "The Slug Sage, do you also know the secret of the night?"
"Yeah, the Slug Sage said that Gojo is the new miracle of the ninja world," Tsunade continued to complain. "Besides my grandfather, I can't think of anyone else who could be called a 'miracle of the ninja world.' Could Gojo have awakened Wood Release too?"
Jiraiya's expression froze.
The mention of the word "immortal" reminded him of the prophecy of the Great Toad Immortal.
A miracle in the ninja world, not the child of prophecy?
Is it because of different ways of addressing each other?
If that's the case, wouldn't that mean that Gojo Yoru is the prophetic child he's been searching for?
But—Gojo Yoru wasn't his disciple, which contradicts the Great Toad Sage's prophecy.
Orochimaru, unaware of Jiraiya's thoughts, pressed on, "Didn't you ask the Slug Sage?"
"I asked, but the Slug Sage wouldn't say. He said that Shikkotsu Forest doesn't dare offend Gojo-kun." Tsunade's answer made Jiraiya's heart tremble once again.
This assessment aligns even more closely with the Great Toad Sage's prophecy.
The prophesied child will bring about significant changes to this ninja world in the future, either bringing unprecedented peace or unprecedented destruction.
Could that prophesied child really be Gojo Yaru?
Orochimaru's next words were the real blow.
"The Slug Sage is right. All you need to know is that when Yoru grows up, he will be the new God of the Shinobi World," Orochimaru said with a determined look in his eyes. "Until he grows up, I will be his guide."
Jiraiya:
Great Toad Immortal, are you perhaps still half asleep and made a wrong prediction?
Actually, you guys wanted to recruit Orochimaru into Mount Myōboku, but you recruited the wrong person and brought in me, his teammate, right?
While Tsunade was shocked, her curiosity about Gojo Yoru also reached its peak.
So much so that she couldn't help but recall the scenes that had taken place in the cave.
The kid's height and mental age that didn't match his age, his domineering attitude and offense that were completely different from others, and his terrifying potential to become the pinnacle of the ninja world, or even the new God of Shinobi, all turned into a strange emotion that even Tsunade didn't notice.
Orochimaru had no idea what the two were thinking, assuming they were both stunned.
Feeling the excruciating pain in his back had subsided, Orochimaru stood up and said seriously, "Let's move out. Be cautious this time, and make sure to buy Night enough time."
"good!"
Coming to their senses, Tsunade and Jiraiya nodded in unison.
Out of trust in their comrades, the Slug Sage, and the Great Toad Sage—this time, the three legendary Sannin of Konoha remarkably reached a consensus, placing absolute trust in Gojo Yoru.
Then three afterimages flew out, moving at high speed on the top of the rocks, which quickly attracted Hanzo the Salamander.
"Water Release: Hidden Mist Technique!"
Hanzo the Salamander used the same tactics as before, creating a large area of dense fog to limit the field of vision of the three legendary Sannin of Konoha.
Whoosh whoosh————
A series of whooshing sounds quickly reached the ears of the three legendary Konoha ninja.
Then a loud "boom" of explosions resounded throughout the area.
Instead of engaging in close-quarters assassination, Hanzo the Salamander threw out a large number of kunai with explosive tags attached to their tails, bombarding the three legendary Sannin of Konoha.
With their field of vision restricted, chakra everywhere in the thick fog, and their sensory techniques sealed off, the three legendary Konoha ninja remained somewhat passive.
However, their task was to buy time for Gojo Yoru and cooperate with Hanzo the Salamander's attack to make themselves more passive, in an attempt to lure Hanzo over.
Unfortunately, Hanzo the Salamander was too cautious. This time, he had no intention of getting close at all, and instead kept attacking them from a distance.
During his evasion, a hint of doubt flashed through Orochimaru's mind.
Why aren't the chained scythes among these ranged attacks?
That scythe could easily pierce through even Jonin armor, so it was clearly not an ordinary weapon. It was a ninja tool, similar to a chakra blade, or even made of a better material and possessing certain special properties.
Could it be that this pinnacle of the ninja world is toying with them, or is he afraid of Gojo Yoru, who can conceal his chakra aura and is undetectable even by the strongest senses, and therefore dares not throw his weapon?
Or is it that this Hanzo the Salamander is still not the real Hanzo?
Orochimaru wanted to test him, but Hanzo the Salamander didn't give him the chance.
Orochimaru finally understood the feelings of the Iwa ninja he had killed, as his own village's signature ninjutsu was being used so skillfully by the enemy.
How disgusting!
Fortunately, Gojo Yoru's target wasn't Hanzo the Salamander at all, which improved Orochimaru's mood considerably, allowing him to continue cooperating with Hanzo the Salamander, who was either his true form or a shadow clone.
Unlike the three legendary Sannin of Konoha who were overwhelmed by Hanzo of the Salamander and even considered retreating, they were different.
On the four beasts' side, the battle remained at a fever pitch.
Unlike human organs, the three beasts' ability to hold their breath is exceptionally remarkable. For the salamander's venom to fully penetrate their bodies, the toxicity is so strong that it forces them to return to the spirit world, requiring considerable time.
As for physical attacks breaking through defenses and then returning to normal, that's even more difficult.
The Slug Sage may seem easy to bully, but its soft body, corrosive slime, and natural energy make it the strongest defensive force on the scene.
Next is the salamander, whose age is second only to the slug master and is older than Gamabunta and Manda.
As a four-legged creature, the salamander can use physical burrowing to dig holes underground.
You can also use the salamander's special ability to swim freely on the ground as if it were a sea or a pond.
The latter consumes energy and reduces the time spent in the real world, but its speed is astonishing, which is the main reason why Gojo couldn't find an opportunity before.
Besides its extreme venom and speed, the salamander's massive size also gives it a powerful defensive capability, making it difficult for explosive tags and ordinary elemental escape techniques to penetrate its defenses.
Its tail is even stronger and more powerful than the current Manda. Whether it is Gamabunta or Manda, it will return to the spirit world if it is hit.
Coupled with the same caution and prudence as the contractors, the Salamander managed to manipulate Gamabunta and Manda through a war of attrition, displaying an extremely volatile temper.
"You stinky toad, can't you spit oil? Use your fire technique on it! Why are you spitting water balls in this downpour?"
"I can breathe oil, but I can't breathe fire."
"Then what are you doing with that pipe in your mouth?!"
"Can't you see it's raining? The cigarette went out a long time ago. Jiraiya usually lights it for me."
"Useless trash, I really want to eat you up in one bite."
"What are you saying, you stinking snake? Do you want to turn into a snakeskin wallet?!"
As the toad and the giant snake argued, the toad suddenly felt an urge to betray them and join the enemy camp to help them kill their comrades. This caused the salamander, who couldn't understand human speech, to momentarily lose its mind.
If its expression weren't non-anthropomorphic, it would definitely look bewildered right now.
As luck would have it, the quarrel between Gamabunta and Manda actually created an opportunity for Gojo Yoru.
While the salamander stood there stunned, perhaps watching the commotion, a bulge suddenly appeared on the ground, quickly transforming into a figure that reached out to touch the salamander's belly.
This angle is a blind spot for the salamander.
Logically, it shouldn't be able to react in time.
And indeed, the salamander did not move, as if it had not noticed the presence of Gojou.
Just as Gojo's palm was about to touch the salamander.
A drop of transparent water suddenly spilled from its white belly, seemingly no different from a raindrop falling on its body.
But as the droplet of water overflowed, black lines suddenly appeared on the pure white belly of the salamander.
These patterns form rectangles, and then black lines spread out to form the character "爆" (explosion), from which sparks flew.
Rumble—
A series of explosions resounded throughout the night, flames engulfed five streets, and dust and mist transformed into mushroom clouds several meters high, rising into the air.
The salamander leaped out of the mushroom cloud and landed on a huge, rock-like structure not far from the explosion, transforming into a giant gecko.
At the same time, the salamander opened its mouth and blew a breath toward the explosion site. Instead of exhaling poisonous smoke, it exhaled a huge stream of air that dispersed the dust and mist created by the explosion.
The original Gojo Yoru had been reduced to a puddle of mud.
The five Yoru from just now were clearly just a clone of the Earth God.
While destroying the earth clone, the Salamander and Salamander Hanzo also gathered information about Gojo Yoru's ability.
When hidden underground, that ability can perfectly conceal chakra aura, making it impossible for even another creature, which is also skilled at burrowing underground, to find it.
However, he will eventually have to emerge from underground, at which point his chakra will inevitably be exposed.
As long as you set up explosive flame arrays on the limbs and the base of the tail in advance, just like you did on the belly, to resist the Flying Thunder God technique, this hidden ability is nothing to fear!
It's a pity the salamander isn't anthropomorphic; otherwise, its expression in the next second would definitely be quite something.
Above the muddy pool, five figures of night appeared out of thin air, lying down and suspended in the air, their left hands gripping their right elbows, while their right hands made a finger-flicking gesture towards the salamander.
Swah—
At the junction of his thumb, index finger, and middle finger, there was a ball of energy the size of a marble, shimmering with a dazzling light.
It was a dense black substance compressed and rotated at high speed, resulting in a tricolor light cluster containing a hint of purple and a hint of blue.
Gojou's icy blue eyes were now reflecting these three lights as well.
His colorful pupils gave his handsome face a divine glow.
"----this."
Gojo Yoru calmly uttered the name of the technique, then flicked his finger and shot it out.
A ball of energy, the size of a marble, shot out instantly.
Then a horrifying scene unfolded.
Wherever the energy orb passed, ripples appeared in the surrounding space, rapidly spreading and expanding, spinning at high speed like a shuriken.
Unlike the ear-piercing sound produced by the high-speed rotation of the Wind Release: Rasengan, this shuriken pattern is formed by spatial ripples, making it almost transparent and silent.
Moreover, unlike the horizontal rotation of the spiral shuriken, the spatial ripples of this energy ball expand both vertically and horizontally at the same time.
As a result, this ball-sized energy cluster produced a devastating effect with a huge kill radius.
The spatial ripples merely rotated and brushed past the ground, leaving a smooth-edged circular notch on the uneven rocky surface.
If Gojo Yoru hadn't launched himself towards the towering rock formation, the energy ball would have carved a long and deep trench if it had simply traveled along the ground.
The energy cluster's transformation process appeared to be very slow, but in reality, after being ejected by Gojou Yoru, it instantly transformed into this form.
The smooth, circular notch was less than three meters away from where Gojou stood.
The ball of light, accompanied by swirling spatial ripples, shot out like a shooting star, instantly striking the rock formation resembling an artificial hill.
Before they even touched it, the rotating spatial ripples had already destroyed the rocky mountain. The rubble was swept into the spatial ripples and continued to be crushed as it followed the path to the ball of light. Then, it seemed to turn into dust or be swallowed by a black hole, completely turning into nothingness.
Even the incredibly fast salamander couldn't react in time and had no way to dodge.
It instinctively wanted to break the spell and return to the spirit world.
However, the rotating spatial ripples disrupted the spacetime power that connected the spirit world.
Unable to return to the spirit world, the salamander's mind went blank, and it could only stare blankly at the tri-colored meteor shooting towards it.
Just when the salamander thought it was doomed, its massive body suddenly transformed into a huge stream of water, vanishing into nothingness along with the enormous rock.
Like a miniature black hole, the tricolored meteor continued its relentless flight through the air, disappearing into the torrential rain of the night sky just like a shooting star.
If someone had night vision, they would see that where a meteor passed, the rain curtain looked like a piece of paper that had been cut open, leaving a faint trace.
Unfortunately, the energy ball contained too little energy and was not large enough to fly very far or very high.
Otherwise, everyone watching this battlefield might have seen the spectacular sight of a hole being blasted through the dark clouds.
Even so, the three beasts watching the battle from a distance, the thick fog that dissipated for unknown reasons, and the three Konoha Sannin who happened to witness this scene were all dumbfounded.
After a long while, the three people and three beasts finally came to their senses.
Jiraiya's voice trembled as he asked, "What—what was that? A meteor, a laser?"
"Gurgle————"
Tsunade swallowed hard, too shocked to speak.
As Orochimaru's eyes trembled, he was analyzing the principles behind this technique, feeling a deep sense of regret.
Unfortunately, it was nighttime, and I couldn't see anything at all.
If it were daytime, he might be able to analyze some of the effects and principles.
Even if he couldn't learn that new application of time and space, it could still provide him with considerable inspiration.
"—Wardfa?!"
The five nights that shocked both humans and beasts remained expressionless and cold on their faces, but in their hearts they uttered a bird language.
What did he just see?
That enormous salamander actually used the Water Instantaneous Movement Technique.
Is he cheating, or is that fish cheating?
Without time to think about any of that, Gojou Yoru, whose space-time chakra was almost depleted and whose Space-Time Yin Seal had automatically disappeared, quickly used up his last bit of space-time chakra to teleport back to Orochimaru's side, urging, "Orochimaru-sensei, run!"
Then a scene of filial piety between master and disciple appeared: Gojo Yoru abandoned the three legendary Konoha ninja and led the way towards the central tower of the forest.
The three legendary Konoha ninja, regaining their senses, quickly dispelled the summoning jutsu and followed closely behind.
On the top of a distant rock, raindrops condensed and formed the silhouette of Hanzo, a salamander.
He watched from a great distance as Gojo Yoru, whose chakra strength was clearly only at the Chunin level, used the technique just now but only consumed less than half of his chakra, and his eyes trembled.
Before understanding the principles behind that technique and finding a solution, Hanzo the Salamander dared not give chase.
He was afraid that Gojo would have another round at night!
From the start of the battle, Hanzo of the Salamander's attention was not on the three legendary Sannin of Konoha at all.
After understanding the strength of the three legendary Sannin of Konoha during their battle, Hanzo of the Salamander created a huge lake and stopped fighting them with his main body. Instead, he created shadow clones to deal with them one after another.
As for his true form, he actually secretly hid inside the salamander's body.
Anyone else who enters will surely die from the deadly poison, but Hanzo the salamander, whose body has a venom sac implanted in it, is completely unaffected.
With his strength and ability to use Body Flicker, Hanzo of the Salamander didn't believe that Gojo Yoru could hurt him.
The magic of the Flying Thunder God Technique lies in its ability to imbue people and objects with a Flying Thunder God incantation that is said to never disappear.
Gojo Yoru's only target from beginning to end was his partner, the salamander.
Hanzo the Salamander used a clever trick, secretly setting up an explosive flame array on his partner, which could both block the Flying Thunder God Technique and kill the opponent.
It was successful, but one of the earth clones was destroyed.
I thought that earth clone was just a test, but it turned out to be a trick of that technique.
Like the salamander, Hanzo the salamander's first instinct was to undo his partner's summoning jutsu, return it to the summoning world, and then disappear in an instant.
Unexpectedly, that technique could interfere with the summoning technique, preventing his partner from returning to the spirit world.
If he hadn't been inside his partner's body, and if he hadn't been able to use the Water Instantaneous Body Technique with his partner, they would have truly gone to the Pure Land together.
Even though he managed to use the Water Instantaneous Movement Technique in time, his partner was still taken away by the invisible aura surrounding the energy ball, which carried away even the hardest part of his tail.
After escaping, its partner instantly returned to the spirit world to heal, and it was unable to be summoned to fight for a short period of time.
The tail section has vanished into nothingness, and the edges of the gap are very smooth. It is unknown whether it will ever grow back.
If he had been just a little off course, his partner might have been seriously injured and on the verge of death, and he himself, hidden inside, might have vanished into nothingness!
That boy is definitely not just a user of the Flying Thunder God Technique!
Hanzo the Salamander recalled the image of Gojo Yoru using the Flying Thunder God Technique, a black flash, and the way the three legendary Sannin of Konoha addressed him. He murmured, "Gojo-kun, Yoru, Gojo Yoru—this name will be etched in my heart forever."
"I will absolutely not repeat this mistake that led to my death!"
