A strong sense of crisis caused his adrenaline to surge.
He raised his arms to shield himself.
Lightning Release: Chidori immediately sliced through his skin.
Fresh blood gushed out.
However, Suigetsu Hobutaki is currently in the Samehada fusion form, with thick skin and flesh.
He endured the pain and activated his ability to absorb chakra.
The lightning, which resembled the cry of a thousand birds, vanished without a trace.
Seeing this, the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon quickly distanced itself.
He looked at the blood gushing from his arms, both shocked and furious.
Suddenly, the sound of wind breaking rang out.
A figure rapidly approached from a distance.
It's Uchiha Itachi.
He glanced around and was taken aback.
Kurenai Yuhi and Kabuto Yakushi were at a disadvantage, which was within his expectations.
But has Suigetsu Hobutsu really been forced to this point?
His arms were covered in blood, clearly indicating that he had suffered a great loss.
But why does he look so strange?
"Konoha's Anbu?"
Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon paused for a moment, but didn't seem to care.
Even if a Jonin were to arrive, it wouldn't change the course of the battle.
But Itachi Uchiha's appearance reminded him that if he delayed any longer, more Konoha ninjas would appear.
"You three, hurry up and take care of them!"
Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon's face darkened, and he shouted.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Kitazawa.
He had thought that using Samehada Fusion Form would make it easy to defeat him, but it seems that he still can't.
Now that things have come to this, he has no choice but to use his real trump card.
He hadn't used Water Release: Mist Concealment Technique and Silent Killing Technique for a long time.
The reason why Suigetsu Hozuki hasn't been used for so long is because he can defeat enemies without using it.
Water Release: Hidden Mist Technique and Silent Killing Technique are used for surprise attacks.
He will only use this when he encounters an enemy who is his equal or stronger.
"Kid, that's enough!"
Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon clapped his hands, and a large amount of mist quickly spread out from him.
"It really is time to end this."
Kitazawa saw that Itachi Uchiha had arrived, so he stopped holding back.
Thousand Hands Chakra Mode!
The fog rolled in.
Behind him, the Watermelon Pufferfish suddenly attacked him.
Strange power!
Kitazawa seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, turning around and throwing a punch.
The Watermelon Pufferfish Demon's eyes widened as it was blasted away.
He landed on the ground, feeling sore all over, as if his body had fallen apart.
If it weren't for Samehada fusion form, Kitazawa's punch would have knocked him unconscious.
But what shocked Kisame Hozuki even more was why Kitazawa reacted so quickly.
Could Kitazawa possibly see him through the fog?
impossible!
Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon quickly got up and dodged the roaring water dragon.
The fog cleared up and became quiet again.
Suigetsu Hobutsu silently crept towards Kitazawa.
Kitazawa stood there wearing sunglasses, seemingly oblivious to everything.
Body Flicker Technique!
Suigetsu Hozuki seized the opportunity and plunged his right hand like a knife into Kitazawa's heart.
A bloodthirsty smile appeared on his face.
Kitazawa is Tsunade's student and is incredibly strong. Killing him would undoubtedly be a great achievement.
But the next second, his smile froze.
Kitazawa reached out and grabbed his arms.
Suigetsu Hobutsu instinctively tried to pull his arm back.
Kitazawa put two fingers together and pressed them on the chakra points on his arm.
How do you know Gentle Fist?
Suigetsu Hobuki noticed the stagnation of chakra in his arm and immediately looked like he'd seen a ghost.
"I have two students from the Hyuga clan, so I know a little about both of them."
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kitazawa struck another chakra point on Suigetsu Hobutsuki's arm.
"Go away!"
Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon sensed something was wrong.
He raised his leg and kicked.
Kitazawa stepped back, avoiding his attack.
Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon breathed a sigh of relief.
But then his body trembled twice and he exited Samehada fusion form.
Suigetsu Hozuki realized what had happened, grabbed his greatsword Samehada, and disappeared into the mist.
He was breathing as lightly as possible.
Whether intentional or accidental, the two chakra points that Kitazawa had just pressed just happened to deactivate his Samehada fusion form.
Suigetsu Hozuki felt an unprecedented sense of unease.
Although his Water Release: Mist Concealment Technique was effective, it would be detected by Kitazawa as soon as he got close.
Suigetsu Hobutaki looked at the greatsword in his hand, Samehada.
He suddenly had a brilliant idea.
Since close-range attacks will be detected, we should use long-range attacks.
Suigetsu Hozuki's Twisted Greatsword - Samehada.
The instant it flew away, he preemptively formed a hand seal.
A thousand needles!
His hair hardened rapidly and flew out like a thousand needles.
Earth Escape·Earth Flow Wall!
Kitazawa was able to react so quickly entirely because of his eye roll.
His Byakugan, enhanced by 30% purity, far surpasses that of the Hyuga clan.
The only drawback is that in Water Release: Hidden Mist Technique, he can only see clearly within three meters.
But that's enough.
A wall rose up, blocking the hair of the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon.
But in an instant, the Greatsword Samehada smashed through the earthen wall.
Those hairs pierced through Kitazawa's body like hedgehog quills.
"Success?"
Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon's face lit up with joy.
With a bang.
Kitazawa's body turned into soil.
Damn it!
The alarm bells rang in Suigetsu Hozuki's mind, and he quickly pulled hard, pulling back the greatsword Samehada.
Composite Ninja Art: Flaming Wind Chaos!
Kitazawa watched the Greatsword Samehada disappear quickly, and immediately formed hand seals.
He leaned back and exhaled a ball of flame.
The flames spread rapidly the moment they hit the ground, turning into a sea of fire.
As the sea of fire appeared, a high-pressure wind ball exploded, causing the fire to spread like fireworks in an instant.
"No!"
Just as Suigetsu Hozuki grasped the greatsword Samehada, he was completely engulfed by endless flames.
A scream rang out.
He tried to run, but it was too late.
The fire, fueled by the wind, moved incredibly fast.
The fog dissipated, replaced by raging flames.
Kitazawa glanced around and spotted the location of Suigetsu Hobutsuki.
He drew his sword, Zhan Yue, and slashed.
The flaming blade flew into the sea of fire and struck Suigetsu Hozuki.
The screams stopped abruptly, and he collapsed.
Wind Release: Vacuum Blade!
Kitazawa struck again.
Wind Release: Vacuum Blade involves injecting Wind Release chakra into a kunai, but injecting it into a ninja sword would have a similar effect.
After Kitazawa cleaved through the sea of fire, he immediately ran in and fished out the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon.
Although he moved quickly enough, Suigetsu Hozuki was still burned beyond recognition, his original appearance completely unrecognizable.
Just as Kitazawa put down the Suigetsu Hobutsuki, he saw the Greatsword Samehada running away as if crawling in the shadows, and it was quite fast.
He stepped forward, stepped on the hilt of the sword, and then formed a hand seal.
Limbs sealed again!
Chakra transformed into black runes, covering the Greatsword Samehada, rendering it unable to move.
Kitazawa stroked his chin.
To be fair, Samehada is pretty powerful.
It is arguably the most useful of the seven ninja swords.
