Yagura's voice was filled with boundless majesty.
He was now draped in the red tailed beast cloak, with three enormous tails standing upright in the air, exuding an immense sense of oppression.
This is a partial tailed beast transformation.
Kitazawa instinctively wanted to use the Thousand Hands Chakra Mode, but he stopped himself from doing so.
Four minutes was not enough for Konoha Village's reinforcements to arrive.
Kitazawa wasn't actually worried about himself.
He possesses the Water Release: Water Transformation technique, allowing him to move freely in the ocean, like a fish in water, able to escape at will.
But Kurenai and her group couldn't do that.
Kitazawa took a deep breath.
The battle with Yagura Karatachi will be his most difficult one yet.
However, he did not feel any fear.
After all, he has cheat codes and his strength has reached a certain level.
This battle, on the contrary, is an opportunity for him to test the limits of his strength.
With such generous rewards, I'm definitely going to give it a shot.
"I don't know what to do!"
Seeing that Kitazawa remained unmoved, Yagura immediately launched an attack.
He wasn't lying when he said he wanted Kitazawa to join Kirigakure.
After all, Kitazawa's Water Release technique aroused his appreciation for talent, and Tsunade's student joining Kirigakure was undoubtedly an insult to Konoha.
Water Release: Iron Cannon Bullet!
Yagura opened his mouth and spat out a large water ball.
This Water Release: Iron Cannonball was ten times larger than the previous Water Release: Iron Cannonball.
It's called a giant water sphere, but it actually looks more like a sun made of water.
Composite Ninja Art: Flaming Wind Chaos!
Kitazawa immediately formed a hand seal.
Chakra transformed into flames and spewed from his mouth.
Once it appeared in the air, it burst into flames, creating a sea of fire.
As soon as it touched the sea surface, water vapor filled the sky.
A scorching heat rose up.
Almost at the same time, a highly compressed vortex exploded in the sea of fire.
The wind howled.
The sea of fire, carried by the wind, transformed into a fiery storm sweeping across the heavens and earth amidst the mist.
The large water sphere from Yagura was submerged and immediately exploded.
The shockwaves spread outwards in concentric circles.
The sea surface churned, creating waves.
Yagura, the tachibana man, raised an eyebrow.
The power of this combined ninjutsu, Flame Wind Chaos Wave, far exceeded his expectations.
"If you are allowed to grow up, you will surely become a major threat to Kirigakure!"
Looking at the sea of fire, Yagura Kojiki stomped his feet down.
Water Release: Isobu Great Waterfall!
Centered on him, the seawater surged up, transforming into a massive, impactful wave.
The sea of fire created by the Composite Ninja Art: Flame Wind Chaos was extinguished in less than three seconds.
Yagura looked around and couldn't help but frown.
Because he didn't see Kitazawa.
Just then, a pair of hands suddenly reached out from the sea where he was standing, grabbed his ankles, and dragged him to the seabed.
Yagura looked down and saw Kitazawa.
Without hesitation, he threw out both fists.
Kitazawa released his legs and opened his mouth, spitting out four water needles that looked like senbon needles.
The water needle pierced Yagura's tailed beast cloak.
Yagura's pupils contracted, and he quickly withdrew his fist, holding it in front of him.
A sharp pain came.
Four water needles struck the same spot, and in a relay fashion, they pierced through his tailed beast cloak and stabbed into his arm.
But only there.
Yagura jumped backward.
He shook off the IV needle from his arm, and seeing the overflowing blood beads, his face immediately turned extremely pale.
Although Kitazawa was already famous, in his heart he was always a rising star, a junior.
He never expected that he would still be injured even after transforming into a half-tailed beast.
Yagura leaped into the water and disappeared.
He quickly found Kitazawa, who was still in the water. Three tails wrapped around him, and he crashed into Kitazawa like a giant turtle.
Wherever it passed, the waves roared and crashed.
Water escape·instant water!
Kitazawa accelerated and quickly moved away.
He leaped out of the sea and stood in mid-air, his hands forming a mudra.
The sea exploded.
Yagura, with its three tails, flew towards him like a cannonball.
Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!
Kitazawa formed hand seals and tilted his head back, spitting out a large water ball.
Yagura Karatachi neither dodged nor evaded, but instead his chakra surged, making his tailed beast cloak appear even thicker.
With a loud bang!
The giant water balloon burst open like a balloon.
Countless streams of water cascaded over him.
Yagura looked at Kitazawa not far away and immediately raised his palm.
Coral palm!
He struck out with his palm.
Because of the excessive chakra, gusts of wind appeared around his arms.
While forcibly remaining airborne, Kitazawa unleashed his Thunderbolt.
He raised the thunderbolt.
In an instant, countless dazzling bolts of lightning appeared above his head.
Bolts of lightning struck down one after another.
Yagura's expression changed slightly.
At this moment, his body and the surrounding area were filled with the water scattered by the Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique.
The lightning struck the water, accelerating rapidly and engulfing him in an instant.
A deafening roar of thunder erupted.
Despite being protected by the Tailed Beast Cloak, Yagura Karatachi's defenses were still breached by too much lightning.
He let out a muffled groan, his body tingling with a numbing sensation, and he fell uncontrollably downwards.
Lightning Release: Chidori!
Seeing this, Kitazawa pressed his advantage without hesitation.
In a flash, he plunged his right hand into Yagura's heart.
The sound of wind breaking rang out.
Yagura's three enormous tails lashed out at him.
In that critical moment, Kitazawa's mastery of one-handed hand seals proved invaluable.
Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!
He formed a mudra with his left hand, and a stream of water rose up around him.
Kitazawa struck Yagura in the heart, and his three tails slammed into the water walls on either side of him like dragon tails.
With a crack, the water wall shattered.
A gust of evil wind came.
Konoha Body Flicker Technique!
Kitazawa narrowly escaped death, transforming into a leaf and disappearing from the spot.
"Damn it! I'm going to kill you!"
Yagura screamed in agony and roared.
Because of his underestimation, he was injured by Kitazawa's combination of Water Release and Lightning Release techniques.
Blood gushed from his wound, soaking his clothes.
But his injuries were not as serious as they appeared.
The reason is that the tailed beast cloak on his body mitigated some of the damage.
Moreover, the Three-Tails' chakra was rapidly healing his wounds.
"Lord Mizukage is injured?"
"How is this possible?"
Is Kitazawa really that amazing?
Even so, Yagura's screams still shocked the other Hidden Mist Village ninjas.
In contrast, Kurenai Yuhi and Hinata Hidetoshi were excited.
Their only hope was that Kitazawa could hold off Yagura while Konoha Village came to their rescue.
Kitazawa has now exceeded expectations in completing the task, which has greatly boosted their confidence.
……
Konoha Village Headquarters.
Even though it was already night, Tsunade still didn't go to sleep.
On one hand, she had to guard against the Hidden Mist Village's counterattack, and on the other hand, she had to wait for news from Kitazawa and the others.
She couldn't sleep peacefully until they came back.
"Lady Tsunade."
Nara Shikaku suggested, "We can stay here and guard the place. You should go and rest."
"Need not."
Tsunade shook her head and said.
