Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 566 Battle of the Yellow Earth

Leaving aside Tachibana Kanagawa's side, they've already gone from being puppeteers to developing scientific ninja tools, from plotting to dig up corners of Sand Village to kidnap Sasori of the Red Sand.

With the departure of Sunagakure puppeteer Urayasu Jin, Kisame Hoshigaki, who should have made his appearance much earlier due to Tachibana Nagakawa's distraction, remained silent as his Mizukage made no move.

On the contrary, the Tsuchikage Onoki, seeing that Konoha had casually sent out an unknown guy to deal with the leader of Sunagakure, was somewhat disdainful, but when he saw that Kisame Hoshigaki seemed to be interested, he took the initiative to speak up.

"Yellow Earth, you go!"

When Onoki spoke up, everyone, including Tachibana Kanagawa, turned their gazes toward him.

"That old fox, why did he send his son onto the field so early?"

Tachibana Kenkawa originally thought that in this kind of challenge that resembled a series of matches, the old fox Onoki would definitely let his own candidate who was competing for the title sneak in at the end.

Unexpectedly, he not only sent people out early, but also sent Huang Tu, who was clearly the main force.

Now that Onoki has spoken first, Tachibana no longer wants to interfere, so he lets Hoshigaki go up and take on four opponents as originally planned.

However, while Jianchuan Ju harbored doubts, Huang Tu, who was mentioned, showed no surprise and bowed respectfully.

Take the initiative to step out of the group.

"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage!"

As he spoke, Huang Tu strode to the center of the training field.

While both are robust and muscular, Huang Tu, though younger than the previous puppeteer Pu Shan Xun, possesses a greater sense of weight and composure.

Although the original intention of this commander competition was to establish the authority of the person who won the commander position in the future through a series of challenges and victories.

Therefore, the requirement is that the winner must achieve a series of consecutive victories.

However, looking at Maruboshi Kosuke who had just finished a match, Huang Tu still politely asked him.

"I am Ito, a Jonin from Iwagakure. Would you like to rest and recover a bit more, senior Maruboshi Kosuke?"

Looking at Huang Tu, whose tone was sincere and polite, Maruhoshi Kosuke smiled slightly and shook his head.

Seeing that the other party had rejected his good intentions, Huang Tu no longer hesitated and immediately formed hand seals to launch his attack.

Just when everyone thought this would be another fierce battle.

After only a few rounds of fighting.

Taking advantage of a break in Huang Tu's ninjutsu, Maruboshi Kosuke leaped to the edge of the training field.

After pretending to catch his breath a few times, he raised his right hand with a smile.

"My chakra is depleted, I surrender!"

This action immediately stunned Huang Tu, who was forming hand seals on the spot.

Not only Huang Tu, but all the ninjas watching were in an uproar.

It was obvious to anyone with eyes that Kosuke Maruboshi had not fought to his limit at this moment.

Although they were suppressed by loess soil throughout, they were not without the ability to fight back.

However, since the other party had voluntarily admitted defeat and sided with them, the others naturally couldn't say anything more and could only whisper among themselves.

Kanakawa Tachibana glanced thoughtfully at Namikaze Minato, who seemed unsurprised by the situation.

Was this how Konoha originally planned it? Aside from the most crucial leader, regarding the other personnel...

Should we also demonstrate the strength of the Konoha ninja?

The composition of the peacekeeping force itself was quite complex. Regardless of the final outcome, Miyo's actions demonstrated its strength and showed the importance it attached to this joint operation.

However, how could Miyo guarantee that Maruboshi Kosuke would win in one round?

Moreover, Tachibana Kanagawa's doubts didn't stop there.

Konoha's scheme, while allowing Maruboshi Kosuke, a relatively unknown genin who had been around for millennia, to reveal his true strength,

But in essence, it still broke the tacit understanding among the five great ninja villages that each village would only send one person to compete for the commander position.

That is indeed a rather petty act.

This meticulous and calculating nature is quite different from the style of Minato Namikaze that I remember.

However, at this moment, Jianchuan Ju didn't see anything useful on the other party's expressionless face.

"However, no matter how much you scheme, in the end, it still comes down to strength."

Without dwelling on Minato Namikaze's thoughts any longer, Tachibana Kanekawa turned to look in Kisame Hoshigaki's direction and nodded slightly.

This indicates that he is ready to enter the game.

Huang Tu in the arena was clearly puzzled as to why his previous opponent did not seem to be going all out.

But the next moment.

A loud "boom" was heard.

The ground trembled slightly.

Kisame Hoshigaki's figure crashed heavily in front of him.

"Kisakuzaka Village, Kisame Hoshigaki!"

Such a violent entrance instantly silenced the previously noisy ninja onlookers.

Looking at the spiderweb-like cracks in the ground beneath Kisame Hoshigaki's feet, many people secretly swallowed hard.

Kisame Hoshigaki himself revealed a slightly ferocious smile, his sharp teeth gleaming as he gazed at the yellow earth in front of him.

Seeing that Huang Tu's expression gradually became serious, Kisame Hoshigaki also reached for the "Twin Blades Hiramekarei" behind him.

Let's begin!

As soon as he finished speaking, Kisame Hoshigaki suddenly exerted force with his feet.

The already cracked earth could no longer withstand the violent pressure and instantly exploded into scattered clods of earth, which flew backward.

Kisame Hoshigaki was much faster than the flying rocks, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Huang Tu.

Seeing this, Huang Tu immediately formed hand seals and released an earthen wall in front of him, attempting to block Kisame Hoshigaki from getting closer.

However, Kisame Hoshigaki neither dodged nor avoided the "Earth Flow Wall" that rose from the ground.

The veins on his arm, gripping the shovel handle, bulged.

The enormous flounder instantly tore through the air, and the violent shockwave shredded all the bandages wrapped around it.

A flash of white light streaked across the sky, and the earthen wall in front of us was instantly split in two and collapsed with a crash.

They couldn't stop Kisame's advance at all.

Seeing the "Earth Flow Wall" so easily destroyed, Huang Tu, who was flying backward, immediately changed his expression.

He quickly formed hand seals again.

"Earth Release: Rock Fist Technique!"

The hard, brown rocks stretched rapidly, and the entire right side of the loess instantly transformed into a massive clod of earth.

However, Huang Tu only had time to place his right hand beside him.

The next moment, the massive, door-like blade, accompanied by a whistling sound, slashed down in front of him.

"When a huge impact sound rang out, followed by a faint 'crack' sound, Huang Tu heard it."

Feeling the immense force coming from his arm, Huang Tu was about to unleash his ninjutsu once more.

"earth."

Before he could even utter the words "Earth Release: Heavy Rock Technique," his massive earth fist slammed into his face, silencing him completely.

Then came a loud "boom".

Huang Tu was sent flying sideways like a cannonball.

A straight trail of dust instantly stretched across the ground.

He only came to a stop after crashing into a dense forest dozens of meters away, knocking down a large number of trees.
