Chapter 70 Hanzo's Doubts and Vigilance
Meanwhile, as Hoshino Yu hovered high in the sky with his lightning bolt, preparing to deliver a major blow to the signal devices and intelligence outposts of the Land of Rain, a figure with an extremely large amount of chakra appeared.
Although he might not be as good as the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, he estimated that they were about the same level.
The only explanation for the existence of such a person in the Land of Rain is that it is Hanzo the Salamander.
The appearance of the other party caused Hoshino Yu to temporarily suspend this operation, choosing to let Raishan linger in place while he considered his next move.
"Lightning Flash, fly in this area for now, and don't use Lightning Release ninjutsu for the time being."
Upon hearing this, Lei Shan sensed something strange about the person on his back and spoke up:
Why?
"Afraid of alerting the enemy."
"What does 'beating the grass to alert the snake' mean?" Lei Shan asked, somewhat puzzled.
Although Raishan lives in this ninja world, the places he lives in are mostly deserted, so he is definitely unfamiliar with the use of words, and naturally he would ask Hoshino Yu what it means.
Fortunately, I have a decent learning ability. I learned quite a lot under Hoshino Yu's guidance a while ago, but now I'm a little confused again.
"Um... this..." Hoshino Yu was embarrassed, and after thinking for a moment, he replied, "It means that when you are hunting, you don't make any noise that might affect the prey's escape."
"Oh, I understand now." Lei Shan said with a sudden realization. "No problem, let me know when we need to deploy."
"Mm," Hoshino Yu nodded in response.
As for whether it was because he was afraid Hanzo would discover him, Hoshino Yu had no such worries at all.
There are only a few possibilities: either Hanzo can fly, or Hanzo can achieve a speed even faster than the Rumble-Rumble Fruit's elemental transformation.
But this is obviously impossible.
At this moment, Hoshino Yu was thinking about whether he could just take care of Hanzo right here.
He underestimated this person who could be called a "demigod" in the ninja world.
Don't underestimate Hanzo the Salamander. He was a ninja who, with his own strength and a poisonous summoning beast, overwhelmed Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade. His overall strength was among the top in the ninjas of that time.
Although the young Sannin were not yet in their complete form, they were still able to witness the terrifying strength of Hanzo.
If you were to actually use a thousand thunderbolts to strike the opponent, whether you could kill them is a question; the opponent might simply escape.
However, Hoshino Yu still wanted to give it a try.
If Hanzo had died earlier, the number of deaths in the Fourth Shinobi World War would probably have been much lower. Without the poisonous creatures used by the enemy's summoning beasts on the battlefield, the chances of survival would have been much greater.
To reiterate, physical attacks cannot harm Hoshino Yu.
......
Meanwhile, at the border of the Land of Rain.
A light drizzle began to fall at the location of the intelligence outpost.
This is the core monitoring node of Rain Release at the border between Amegakure and the Land of Rivers. On the rocky platform, Hanzo of the Salamander stands with his hands behind his back, his chakra repelling the raindrops around him.
He was dressed in a dark, tight-fitting combat suit, with a dark gray hooded cloak pulled low over it, revealing only his chin and pale neck.
Hanzo lowered his eyes, sensing the fluctuations in the Rain Escape monitoring network.
A messenger from the Sand Village just brought news that a large force from Konoha is heading to the Land of Wind. He needs to hold this position and ensure the alliance's coordinated efforts.
However, news of the supply train's deaths in the land of rivers had also reached his ears.
A ninja wearing a Rain Village headband, his face covered, knelt before Hanzo and spoke in a deep voice:
"Lord Hanzo, the supply corps transporting provisions... has been completely wiped out."
Upon hearing this, Hanzo the Salamander seemed to have anticipated this outcome and did not reply.
If it were truly possible to secretly and brazenly send supply trains to their designated locations, then those great powers would be utterly incompetent.
"The Land of Wind," Hanzo said coldly.
"The entire Wind Kingdom was wiped out; not a single one survived."
Hearing this, Hanzo smiled and said:
"I understand. Notify the others that they can come back."
The rain ninja nodded slightly, then vanished into the rain in a flash.
"The Land of Wind, the Land of Fire, or perhaps one of the Five Great Nations..."
"Heh, so what? My Rain Kingdom is determined to reach the highest point in this war."
To be honest, Hanzo the Salamander was quite ambitious and overconfident.
However, if the Land of Rain had a better geographical environment, he might actually be able to do it.
Just then, Hanzo slowly raised his head and looked up at the sky.
A faint chakra emanated from the high-altitude clouds, weak yet carrying an eerie sense of oppression. Combined with the heavenly lightning that had previously wiped out the entire army, he had no choice but to pay attention to it.
He looked up at the sky, where the clouds were thick and the rain was dense, so he couldn't see anything. But a strange feeling grew stronger and stronger, as if something was hiding in the clouds, deliberately suppressing its chakra, but still leaving traces.
"Lord Hanzo, what's wrong?" Two Rain Ninja Jonin beside him bowed and asked, gripping their ninja tools and looking up at the sky, but to no avail.
Hanzo did not respond, his brows furrowed, and the rain around him intensified, weaving a sensory network that reached towards the sky.
But that chakra seemed to be integrated with the clouds, or perhaps it was too high up, and could never be locked in place.
"Strange..." Hanzo murmured to himself, "If it's not Sand Ninja or Iwa Ninja, could it be Konoha? But when did Konoha acquire such an aerial unit? What is it...?"
He was certain that the unusual activity was not simple, but whatever it was, anyone who dared to provoke on the border of Rain Village would not have a good ending.
Unbeknownst to him, above the clouds, Hoshino Yu was circling with Raishan, searching for an opportunity to strike.
At this moment, he had completely transformed into an elemental being, along with the lightning flash. Lightning Release chakra gathered wildly, and pale blue lightning flickered in the clouds.
The slight anomaly that Hanzo sensed just now was the aura of lightning chakra emanating from Raishen.
Unfortunately, Hoshino Yu himself doesn't need to use chakra, but Lightning Flash can't.
As for Hanzo's perception, Hoshino Yu, with his "Mind Network" perception, was naturally fully aware of it as well.
"Oh, you can still detect that? But what can you possibly detect, Hanzo the Salamander?"
Hoshino Yu's senses were firmly locked onto Hanzo and the Rain Ninja base, and the lightning in his hand gradually intensified, with the Ten Thousand Lightning Bolts almost fully charged.
Hanzo remained vigilant, scanning the sky with a furrowed brow. The strange feeling grew stronger, like an approaching storm, but he couldn't pinpoint the location. He could only grip his short staff tightly, gather his chakra, and prepare for battle.
At this moment, another Rain Ninja cautiously asked:
"Lord Hanzo, is there something up there?"
Hanzo did not answer, but instead frowned and spoke to the person beside him:
"Retreat immediately and abandon the stronghold."
"What?!" one of the Rain Ninja exclaimed in surprise.
"I won't repeat myself twice," Hanzo said coldly.
If he hadn't sensed something above him, he would have kicked the ninja who had just answered him long ago.
The rain intensified, making the lightning in the clouds more visible, but it was obscured by the rain.
Hoshino Yu's eyes were cold, and a smile played on his lips as he finished charging up Wan Lei.
"Now, the moment to witness a miracle has arrived!"
